Cano powers the Home Run Derby!
Besides hitting towering shots, NY Yankee's Robinson Cano dominated the State Farm Home Run Derby, last night! He beat out Boston Red Sox Adrian Gonzalez in the final round with a new record 12 HR's. He had a little help from his father, Jose Cano, who pitched for him, and interesting enuff was a former MLB pitcher for the Houston Astros in 1989. Milwaukee Brewers (NL Captain) Prince Fielder had the biggest HR at 474 ft., and hit five HR's on five swings to advance to the second round, in a swing-off tiebreaker with Boston Red Sox (AL Captain) David Ortiz who had 4HR on five swings! Cano and Gonzalez totalled 20HR's a piece after the second round to advance to the finals! The Gold-Ball (pic below) with a 24-karat infused panel, was only thrown to the hitter with one out remaining, and retails at $149.99. Each gold ball added 18,000 to the MLB-State Farm donation to the Boy and Girls Club of America. State Farm donations totaled $603K for the night!
"As a kid, you dream to be up here with a bunch of guys that you watched back in the day, like Sosa, Griffey, McGwire, Giambi, how much fun they have," Robinson Cano said.
Cano tried to hit the 472 Miller Lite sign. "That was my favorite one I'm going to have that in my mind for the next two or three weeks. I wonder how far could it be, that in New York?" Cano said. ''I got power."
"When he called me at home, that he wanted me to come to the United States because he's going to be in the Home Run Derby, I said, `I'll be happy to pitch to you, because that's what I do at home,"' Jose Cano said. – foxsports
One fan, Keith Carmickle, almost took a fall going after a Prince Fielder HR ball, but was held up by his brother. (pic below)
Players who retrieved the gold ball were lucky, David Hayes (pic below), volunteer Jr. RBI Baseball, got offered $500 for his lucky catch, but replied ""No way!" – ktar
The Gold-Ball with a 24-karat infused panel, was only thrown to the hitter with one out remaining, and retails at $149.99.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this research was to follow 32 to 35 week infants referred to Mercy Children's Pulmonary Center who met FDA package insert guidelines for Synagis prophylaxis and describe their experience in the 2009- 2010 RSV season. RSV is a common virus present during winter months. It is responsible for approximately 220,000 hospitalizations in infants below one year of age in the United States yearly. Premature infants, those with chronic lung disease or heart disease have a greater risk for RSV hospitalization. There is prophylactic medication, Synagis, that is available. Safety and efficacy of Synagis has been proven. The AAP has set guidelines for considering infants for prophylaxis. In 2009, guidelines changed, deviating from scientific evidence base.
METHODS: We called the care givers of all infants referred to the Mercy RSV program 3 months after RSV season end and obtained information about: 1. Synagis prophylaxis. 2. Risk factors for RSV disease 3. RSV infection 4. office visits/ER, hospitalizations 5. change in their health status Data was analyzed to form a descriptive analysis' of the group
RESULTS: Total N of 55 patients Ninety percent were below poverty level Seventy percent were male Ninety percent had Siblings Thirty percent had a Family History of Asthma Thirty percent Second smoke exposure Fifty three percent had a RSV infection Sixty six percent of those with RSV were Hospitalized Fifty six percent had a RSV ER Visits Fifty six percent had a RSV Dr. Visits Sixty seven percent had continued wheeze/infections Average length of hospital stays was1.7 days Average cost of hospitalization was $9200.00
CONCLUSIONS: These guidelines had a negative impact on our patient population. Data represents risk factors outside of those identified by AAP.
CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: Development of guidelines that have the potential to restrict care must be cognizant of the implications to multiple populations to avert causing diparity in a group.

Coming up with a new way of punishing the vandals who rampaged through many of the country's cities and towns, the government has laid out a controversial plan to make much broader use of existing powers to evict not only the rioters, but also their families from their free or rent-subsidised accommodations, that provide millions with cradle-to-grave homes.
The new measure would probably be the most punitive of the sanctions the British government is considering in response to the worst civil disorder in a generation. More than 10 million Britons, about one in six, live in public housing, the Daily Mail reported.
The paper said in the first case of its kind, Daniel Sartain-Clarke, 18, and his mother have been served with an eviction notice as council bosses sought to turf them out of their 225,000 Pound Sterling taxpayer-subsidised flat.
The youth is charged with violent disorder and attempting to steal electronic goods from a store in Clapham Junction, South London, on Monday night.
The punitive actions on the looters followed Prime Minister David Cameron appearance on television on Friday night and his declaration that the "fightback" was against the rioters.

Compress 1080p MP4 for iPad Pro/Air 3/Mini 4 from Leef Bridge USB Flash Drive
This is a guide on how to compress and reduce the (1080p) MP4 to Leef Bridge USB Flash Drive for streaming, and then play smoothly on iPad (iPad Pro/Air 3/Mini 4).
The iPad (iPad Pro/Air 3/Mini 4) supports up to 128GB of file storage and 1080p video recording, so you can quickly run out of space when creating high-definition videos. These files can take a long time to upload or transfer to a computer, how to compress them to a much smaller size for smoothly playing on iPad?
"I want a tool to convert my .mp4 video in 1080P to a low resolution to reduce the size of the video in order to fit the limitation of the file system. Then i would like to play them on my iPad Pro. I have a lot of videos in my PC. I watch them in my Ipad Pro by attaching the Leef Bridge USB Flash Drive. In Leef Bridge, the file size has limitation due to the file system. Any help?"
Depending on the final quality you desire, you can choose one professional 1080p MP4 converter to help you compress 1080p MP4 videos to iPad (iPad Pro/Air 3/Mini 4) supported formats by three methods for playing.
Top 2 Ways to Reduce Size of MP4 Video File
Way 1: Change Parameter Settings, Incl. Video Resolution, Frame Rate and Bit Rate
Video resolution: The video resolution is closely bound up with video size and quality. Higher resolution usually results in larger video file size. Changing the original video to a smaller resolution will lead to a smaller file size. For HD MP4 video, as high as 1920*1080P, it's recommended to reduce to 1280X720, 640×480, 640×360, etc for playing on iPad and then transfer them via Leef Bridge USB Flash Drive without any problems.
Bit rate: As for the bit rate, lowering the bit rate will bring about the decrease of the video file size. But please keep in mind the image quality will be bad in case you make the bit rate too low.
Frame rate: With regard to frame rate, it has a lot to do with the file size. the lower frame rate, the smaller size you will get, and vice versa.
Way 2: Trim Unwanted Part to Downsize MP4 Video File
Generally, trimming unwanted video clips from your big video file is a feasible way to decrease your MP4 video file. And some video editor tools as well as video converters that toast the editing features can realize the task. You can either change the video file into multiple segments or cut off the unwanted clips to get the video size compressed.
In order to make the two methods come true, what you need is one tool which can meet the reauirements totally. It ia called Pavtube Video Converter/Pavtube Video Converter for Mac. With it, you can reduce the 1080p to Leef Bridge USB Flash Drive and iPad all supported files for smooth streaming and playing.

Reduce 1080p MP4 for iPad Pro/Air 3/Mini 4 via Leef Bridge USB Flash Drive
Step 1. Click "Add video" button to add your video files to the program. Or directly drag the video you want to convert to the left item bar.
Step 2. Set right output format. Click "Format" bar, and select iPad .mp4 from "iPad" .
Then you can click the "Settings" button to change the settings by yourself including video resolution(reduce any resolution like 720p), bit rate(adjust the bit rate you want to reduce the .mp4 files), audio sample rate, audio channel etc. for full screen playback smoothly.
The "Trim" feature allows users to decide where to start and where to end when converting the selected clip, so that unwanted segments will be cut out after conversion.
To set your 1080P MP4 video length, please switch to "Trim" tab in "Video Editor" Interface and follow any of the methods below:
1. Drag the control sliders to include the segment you want to remain.
2. Click the left square bracket to set start point, and click the right square bracket to set end point when previewing the video.
3. Input specific values to "Start" and "End" box.
Step 3. Click the "Convert" button on the main interface and the software will start to convert MP4 to iPad format immediately. When the conversion finishes, click "Open" to find the converted video files. Then you can effortless transfer the video files to iPad via Leef Bridge USB Flash Drive without any thinkings about the size of the MP4 files. Have a try.

I do not own any of the ideas, locations, or characters that appear in the Ratchet and Clank series, these belong to their respective owners.
The item/term Manifestor belongs to Stephen Stryker, I am using it with his permission.
This chapter has a scene that borrows heavily from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J.K. Rowling. The initial idea with Limbo is hers, and I have modified it for my purpose.
All other characters, races, and locations not appearing in the Ratchet and Clank series are my own. While I probably won't care if you use them, it would be nice if you did ask.
Epilogue: Choices Made
The first thing he noticed was that he was clad in his mechanic outfit. The second was the silence. There was an absolute stillness. The third was that he was grasping his dual wrench. His eyes were closed. He opened them. He saw a white room. It was not very clear, as though it was out of focus. He blinked. And then he realized something. He couldn't hear his heart.
He began to panic, trying to feel a pulse in his neck or arms. Nothing. In desperation, he beat his chest in a desperate rhythm, trying to jump start it. Nothing. After thirty seconds the realization hit him.
"Bloody Hell. I'm dead."
"Indeed." Ratchet whirled. That voice…and there he was.
The Lombax was a good two inches taller. He was clad in a brilliant Praetorian armor. A dual wrench was strapped to his back. White fur with red stripes.
"General Azimuth? Ratchet's voice was a mere whisper. It couldn't be, the elder was dead…wait. Wasn't Ratchet dead also? Right.
"I would say 'in the flesh', but given our situation, that doesn't somehow seem to be the right thing to say." A low chuckle.
"Well well, Ratchet, it looks like you went from cute to handsome." Ratchet whipped his head around.
"I see you still have a trace of that crush on me." The beautiful female Lombax paraded forward. "Seriously though, last time you were way to young."
Ratchet noticed that the area was becoming slightly clearer, though it was still very obscure. "I'm sorry. I wasn't fast enough to save you-"
"Ratchet, don't be an idiot!" Angela had an annoyed expression on her face, one that instinctivly made Ratchet cringe.
"She's right you know. There was nothing you could have done. I made my choice, and she…well she was tricked. She really didn't have much of a choice." The elder sighed.
"But I could have done something…" He stopped as Angela surprised him with a soft hug.
"You can't save everyone Ratchet. Its ok. I have dealt with death, even if I don't know what I have done." The two softly embraced, and then broke apart.
"Where is everyone else? Where is my family? Kaden, Mom…Icarus?" He looked around the room, yes it was a room, and spotted a small pile. Nothing else.
"They aren't here Ratchet. They are…beyond."
"Then why am I not with them? Why aren't they here?"
The other two Lombaxes looked at each other. Angela was the one who answered. "Because here you are going to have to make you most important choice. And you won't remember it."
Ratchet snorted. "Figures. Wait a minute. Early, you said you dealt with death, even if you don't know what you have done. What in the world does that mean?"
She sighed. "You explain it, you were always better at this."
The elder stepped forward. "Well, Ratchet, you see death is in part what you make of it. For instance, say you believe in reincarnation. When you die, you will be reincarnated. Others go to the various Heavens and Hells they believe in. Still others simply end.
Of course, there are limitations. You can't just simply believe you will be reincarnated as a god and have it happen. And sometimes the universe throws fate in your direction. Like it is doing now."
A groan. "So I don't really have a choice do I? What, does the universe have my destiny all mapped out?"
"I said fate, not destiny."
"What's the difference?"
This time it was Angela who answered. "Fate is when you are at a crossroads, and you make a choice. Destiny is having that choice already made for you. In truth, there is no such thing as destiny. Choice may crop up in fate, but you decide what you do."
"I couldn't have put it better myself."
Ratchet picked up his wrench from where he had dropped it during Angela's embrace. Again the pile of items caught his eye.
"What are those?"
The general spoke again. "Those are the items people have given you at your funeral. Each is from someone you touched. It is an old Lombax tradition. Speaking of which, I hear you got them back."
A grin. "You bet." The grin faded. "But the cost…"
"We'll get through."
Silence. "I guess I should see what my friends left me." He walked over to the pile. "Say, you still haven't told what this choice of mine is, what fate has thrown at me."
Angela nodded. "Well, you see, it revolves around an old legend." A dramatic pause. Ratchet suddenly realized he was in the hanger of the Phoenix. "Did you ever wonder why those Leviathan souls are so valuable? It is because it is believed that they can bring back the dead.
As it turns out there is some truth to the legends. But you can't simply have the soul on you. No. You have to be given the soul after death. It must be offered up willingly, with no trade in. You also need three crystals. One sun, one moon, and one sewer."
"You have got to be kidding me? A sewer crystal? Sure, I can see the sun and moon crystal, I remember mining them for those mystic guys, but what in the world is a sewer crystal doing there?" Ratchet noticed the three rocks, as well as the soul floating around. He ignored it for now, and looked at the other stuff.
"That's what I said when I learned about it."
"You never were a believer Azimuth. But anyway, there are some notable cases, like with your brother Clank."
Ratchet had just pulled out the tracker bracelet. "Yah, me and Clank were like brothers." Clank. It made sense to offer his tracking device with this.
"No Ratchet. Clank is your brother. His soul, the one that Orvus gave him, is that of your brother."
Ratchet stopped looking. He turned to Azimuth. "You never told me I had a brother."
"I didn't know until I was dead, and neither did Angela. Your mother…she was pregnant during the attack. Kaden was going to announce it soon. But then she died…"
Tears welled up in all three of them. "So Clank…he has my brother's soul, which Orvus did by using a Leviathan soul?"
"Aye, though I suspect he cheated a little, being a Zoni and all."
Ratchet let the remark pass. "So…what if I don't want to go back. What if I am done fighting for everyone, suffering for everyone?"
"Then you board that dropship and go beyond." Angela gestured with her hands, and Ratchet turned, seeing an open dropship.
"What, no advice?"
"Ratchet, my boy, this is your decision. We aren't here to guide you. You have to make this choice all on your own."
"I see." There were several moments of silence. "I have made my decision."
"Then we will take leave of you." The two Lombaxes turned. Angela paused then walked towards Ratchet.
"What the Hell. One for the road I guess." And before the startled hero could react, she firmly placed her lips on his in a big kiss.
It was Ratchet's first, and he enjoyed it immensely. The softness of her lips, the warmth. Her tongue teased his. It lasted a full five seconds, and then she withdrew. Ratchet purred.
At this Angela giggled. "Oh, new experience I see?"
"Oh yah…I mean…ah crap." A huge grin crept onto Angela's face while Azimuth cackled with laughter in the background. Ratchet grinned sheepishly.
"Well, lover boy, time for you to get going." He nodded, and left the hanger.
There was a moment of silence, and then a flash. Two old blue men in capes and wielding staffs appeared, and Angela and Azimuth were replaced with floating balls of energy.
"We thank you for letting us use your souls. Go back to your peace." The two souls flew off.
The mystics turned towards each other, and nodded. The room was empty, and returned to its previous state of nothingness.
It had been ten days since Ratchet's funeral. And subsequent revival. Everyone, including Ratchet, had been very surprised when he had removed the lid to the coffin. He began by cussing a blue streak and demanding to know who had thought it funny to drug him and place him in a coffin.
He had been interrupted by Clank jumping up and hugging him fiercely, and then being tackled by Talwyn. In a move that shocked even her, Talwyn grabbed Ratchet's face with her hands and kissed him hard. In that moment, feelings for her that had been buried under his missions awoke in Ratchet. He wasn't sure yet if he loved her, but he knew he cared for her, and wanted to try it out.
A day of sorrow turned into a day of celebration. A party quickly started on Fastoon, and spread throughout the Tri-Galaxies, and even into the Lycan dimension. It was a party that lasted a day. There was much joy.
The next day was spent with various scientists and doctors trying to figure out how Ratchet had come back to life. No one could explain how a corpse with no blood suddenly woke up with it roaring through his heart. In the end it was classified as "paranormal, a miracle." Some said it was the work of gods. Others said Ratchet himself was God, but these were few and far between. So were the ones who claimed he had made a pact with the Devil. A good portion just chalked it up as Ratchet being too tough for death.
In the end, only four people knew the truth. Two were brothers, and they had a direct role in the affair. Another, who always seemed to know everything, simply shrugged and went back to fixing pipes. The other, with his trusty parrot, figured it out, but decided never to tell anyone. In the end, no one would know.
After that the good times were over. The Lombax Council still had to try him for treason, as well as Sajuuk. Sajuuk's had been quick, he had simply pleaded guilty and had been kicked out of the military and barred from owning any weapons. He didn't care, and immediately applied to be an ambassador, which had been accepted when no other candidates arrived.
And now Ratchet was going to face his sentence. The council, missing the military elder, was about to announce the verdict.
"We, the Council of Elders, find the defendant, Ratchet, guilty of the charge of treason."
Clank remembered Ratchet's shocked look. Before he could protest, or try to escape, the elder continued.
"Normally the punishment for treason would be death. But in light of circumstances, we have decided on a different punishment.
Ratchet, you are hear-by sentenced to one year of community labor on Fastoon, effective tomorrow. This court is adjourned."
Clank also remembered the surprised look upon Ratchet's face. Clank had already figured it out. They didn't truly believe he was guilty, but they wanted him on the planet. They wanted him as a citizen, to use the hero of the Great War as a bargaining chip. Poor them. They had yet to realize Ratchet was no bargaining chip and that he would help everyone equally.
The next year was a blur for the duo. Ratchet spent most of his time working on projects like restoring the Gear Statue near the Court of Azimuth. A good portion was spent dating Talwyn. The rest was spent tracking down a portion of his funds, most of which ended up in funding an orphanage for war victims. Ratchet only got 1% back, but that was more than enough, being over 20 million bolts.
By the end of the year, Ratchet and Talwyn were engaged, with a wedding following soon after. After this Ratchet faced his next challenge.
There had been a huge movement to create a "Ratchet Day" something he was vehemently against. Though Ratchet enjoyed popularity, this was a little much, and he protested against it hard. But the public wanted a holiday. In the end, after much backroom politics (which Ratchet claimed were worse than any battle he had been in) a compromise was made. There would be a remembrance day holiday for all those who fell in the Great War, and to honor Ratchet it would fall on the day he had been scheduled for burial.
Other major changes occurred. Realizing that the use of dimensionator to travel between the Lycan dimension and the Tri Galaxy was slowly destabilizing the Great Clock, they were used one last time to bring back the worlds into the Polaris Galaxy. Though there were some time rifts, Orvus and Sigmund were able to patch them up. All dimensionator were destroyed, and so were the plans. They were just too dangerous to the time-space continuum.
The Lycan empire crumbled upon itself, and folded back up to its home system. The other races that had returned to their own world. For the first time in Centuries, Lycans did menial work. Karen remained the Great Alpha Leader of her people. Peace reigned.
In the Bogon Galaxy, Fizzwidget quickly established a presidential government. Soon, after much debating, the Tri-Galaxies merged into one government, with one president. As a war hero and as a talented politician, Sasha Phyronix became the first Tri-Galaxy President.
Over the next couple of decades he, Ratchet, and Talwyn would have many adventures. There were numerous close calls, and there were times each thought the other was dead. But they survived, although there were many scars.
After many decades, they settled down on the rebuilt Apogee station. A few months later the twins were born. The hybrids were slightly odd, but there were many other hybrids out there. They both had unusually thick fur, and their ears weren't as large as normal Lombaxes. They mostly looked like Lombaxes on the outside.
The elder, a male named Azimuth Clank Apogee, was a gold with red flecks hybrid. He was a tall one at 6'3", and was interested in joining the military. He was a lot more disciplined than Ratchet ever was, and had a good head for tactics. Still, he was a bit of a rouge, and loved to explore.
The younger, a female named Angela Mira Apogee, was a purple with pink flecks. She was a bit short, around 5'6", and had a very inquisitive mind. She loved to tinker with both science and machines, and cause quite a few accidents aboard the station simply wonder what would happen if you did this.
One memory always stuck out for Clank involving the twins. He was alone with them, and they were telling of an unusual dream they both had.
"So you think you both had the same dream?"
"Yes Uncle Clank. I was wondering if you could help us understand why that is."
"I'm only in this so it doesn't happen again. What if I somehow gave away military secrets in my dreams? That would be a tragedy."
Clank chuckled. "I am not sure what happened. Perhaps you could describe the dream to me."
A thoughtful expression crossed Angela's face. "Sure. We don't remember much. I do recall that we were in the hanger of some ship. And that we had different color schemes for our fur. There was something about Father making a decision…"
"And I remember one thing clearly. It had to do with your soul being that of Father's unborn brother who died during the fight on Fastoon."
"Yah, that stands out clearly…"
Now that was an odd detail. "Anything else?"
"No Uncle Clank."
For some reason Clank always found himself drawn to that memory. It was a nice little tale. He and Ratchet, brothers separated by death, only to return together. And save the universe of course.
Then one day even more decades later Ratchet became sick with a terminal disease. It was a cancer that stemmed of his repeated use of nanotech to heal himself. It was incurable, and revenged him in a matter of days.
He said his goodbyes on his deathbed, surrounded by his family of children and grandchildren. He passed away, and Talwyn wept next to his unmoving body. The rest of the family left her to weep in peace.
She died in the next five minutes of a heart attack. It was only after fifteen minutes that the rest of the family began to worry. By the time they got to the room, both of the bodies were already cool to the touch.
The funeral was held, and many attended. This time there was no revival. Ratchet and Talwyn were buried together on Apogee Station, and the whole station became a monument to them, filled with tools and medals and other menial stuff.
Aphelion, who had been flying above Fastoon during Ratchet's first burial, had returned to him upon his revival. Now with his death, she left to wander the stars. Though she was now an old ship, she was still in top condition, and could take care of herself. She did promise Clank that if he ever needed her, he just had to call.
Now he, Aphelion, Cronk, Zephyr, Merc, and Green were all that were left of Ratchet's era. His kids still lived, but they were of a different time, a time of peace. Everyone else had died in war, or of natural causes, or of accidents.
Clank was standing at the entrance to a building ran by the Ratchet and Clank Orphanage. The orphanage had expanded over the years, now focusing on all orphans. The lack of wars had stopped the generation of war orphans, not that he was complaining.
The door opened, and out stepped Lily Rose, an unusual Lombax orphan. Her parents were still alive, but had dropped her off due to her unusual birth defect of being deaf. It was a terrible stigma in Lombax culture. The white with black flecks Lombax had few friends, and Clank had decided to look after her with extra care.
"Hey Clank." She signed at him.
"How are you doing Lily?" He signed back.
"Great, I just finished my first invention. Could you put this in your ear? Don't worry, its completely safe, I already put mine in." She held in her hand a vile with a liquid substance. Clank complied.
"Can you hear me?" Clank almost jumped at the voice that filled his head. It was silky smooth. And it was Lily's voice. He grinned at her device.
"Very nice." He thought back at her.
"Thanks, but organics don't like it. It still burns slightly in my head, but I wanted to communicate to you. And I wanted to 'hear' my voice. It is nice."
"Yes it is."
They looked out at the bleak landscape of Veldin. "You know Clank, I have never explored the Kyzil Plateau. I hear it can be dangerous, so I packed some supplies." She pulled out an Omni-Wrench 2100, and a nanotech kit. "Want to explore it with me? I promise if we run into anything to dangerous I will go back. But I want to have an adventure."
Clank looked at the sixteen year old Lombax. She reminded him of Ratchet, but was not nearly as reckless. Ratchet's advice once again replayed in his head. "Move on Clank, and find others."
He replayed all of the decisions of his life in an instant. There had been many he would have changed if he could. Yet he appreciated those failures, those mistakes. And they always had someone in them. Maybe it was indeed time to move on.
He nodded. "I think I would love to have another adventure."
"A cynic once told me all stories end the same way: Everyone dies. He is wrong. A story ends when it is no longer told. Stories change, they evolve, but they don't die until no-one remembers them." aduck1
Author's Notes
Well, that's it. I'm done with my first major fan-fic. I have actually had the idea for this story ever since I beat aCiT. It feels kind of weird to end it now.
I would like to thank Phillip458, Ratchet Thunderfire, and Nichole 642 for reviewing and telling me to continue onwards. Every writer likes to be told he is appreciated.
As to everyone else who read, I hope you enjoyed the story. I can only assume you did, since people kept on coming back to the story. If you follow my next work, please review. If I am doing something right, I want to know, and if I am doing something wrong, I still want to know.
Thanks for reading.

The sheltered existence of hundreds of desert tortoises will come to a sad and tragic end in early 2014.
A lack of funds at The Desert Tortoise Conservation Center, located outside Las Vegas, Nevada, will cause the sanctuary to close its doors and euthanize about half of its 1,400 tortoise residents, reports the Associated Press.
The facility was created in 1990 when the overdevelopment—namely McMansions, solar plants, and strip malls—of the turtles' native habitats caused the critters to be put on the endangered species list.
The center previously upheld a $1 million annual budget, mostly fueled by "raking in funds from fees imposed on real estate developers who chose to build on the tortoises' habitats," reports the AP. But the housing market collapse in 2008 caused that fund pipeline to dry up. And, as a result, The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) simply can't allocate any more money for another year.
"With the money going down and more and more tortoises coming in, it never would have added up," said BLM spokeswoman Hillerie Patton to the AP.
Many of these ill-fated residents are too feeble to survive in the outside world, but there is a small silver lining: The sturdiest few will be released in the wild to live onwards in the Nevadan plains.

Islamic State militants took full control of the western Iraqi city of Ramadi on Sunday in the biggest defeat for the Baghdad government since last summer.
In a statement, the group said it had seized tanks and killed "dozens of apostates", its description for members of the Iraqi security forces.
Ramadi is the capital of Iraq's western Anbar province, which is dominated by Sunni Muslims. Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi signed off on the deployment of Shi'ite militias to attempt to seize back the area, a move he previously resisted for fear of provoking a sectarian backlash.
Earlier, security sources said government forces evacuated a key military base after it came under attack by the insurgents, who had already taken one of the last districts still holding out.
It was the biggest victory for Islamic State in Iraq since security forces and Shi'ite paramilitary groups began pushing the militants back last year, aided by air strikes from a U.S.-led coalition.

The Obama administration said today a federal appeals court's decision knocking down a challenge to a California wind farm supports its arguments in another case involving migratory bird protections. The Justice Department sent a letter to another federal appeals court that's weighing a separate lawsuit against the long-stalled Cape Wind offshore wind project planned for coastal Massachusetts. The DOJ urged the Washington, D.C.-based court to agree with their counterparts in California.

Measures attacking Obama green agenda advancing to House floor
The House Rules Committee took triple-barreled aim at the Obama administration's environment and energy agenda last night, clearing the way for floor votes this week on a bill to delay U.S. EPA's new ground-level ozone standard, as well as two resolutions offering symbolic opposition to potential climate change policies. Administration regulations are "killing our jobs," Rules Chairman Pete Sessions (R-Texas) said shortly before the panel voted 7-4 along party lines to advance all three measures.
Conference fate rests with Senate Democrats
Whether or not the Senate launches the first conference committee on energy legislation in a decade is in the hands of Senate Democrats, who continue to express concerns with the House's revised version. Energy and Natural Resources Committee Democrats say legislation the House passed before recess is laden with veto-bait and doesn't bode well for efforts to reconcile the competing measures.
'Big four' to huddle on conference impasse
Key House and Senate lawmakers are planning to meet next week to discuss how an energy conference committee would operate, as Democrats in the upper chamber continue to express doubts about the prospects of reconciling competing bills. Sen. Maria Cantwell (D-Wash.), ranking member on the Energy and Natural Resources Committee and co-sponsor of the Senate package, S. 2012, told E&E Daily about the likely meeting.
Issue gap for voters is greatest on climate — Gallup poll
A new poll shows a wide gap between Democrats and Republicans on how important climate change is to their vote for president. The Gallup poll found that 72 percent of Democrats say that the issue of climate change is "extremely" or "very" important in how they vote for a presidential candidate. Just 25 percent of Republicans say that the issue is important.
IEA Cuts Gas Demand Outlook Again as Glut Seen to End of Decade
While oil markets will start re-balancing after a slump next year, an oversupply in natural gas won't disappear until the end of the decade, the International Energy Agency said, slashing its gas demand outlook for a fourth straight year. Global consumption will expand by 1.5 percent annually from 2015 through 2021, down from last year's forecast of 2 percent growth from 2014 through 2020 and a 2.5 gain over the prior six years, the Paris-based agency said Wednesday in its Medium-Term Gas Market Report. The slowdown will be driven by weaker use in the U.S. and Japan as the fuel struggles to compete against booming renewables and "very cheap" coal in power generation.
EDF Energy Starts Construction of Blyth Offshore Wind Farm in UK
EDF Energy Renewables, a joint venture between EDF Energy and EDF Energies Nouvelles, has started to build a new offshore wind farm off the coast of Blyth in Northumberland in Britain, the firm said on Tuesday. The wind farm will have a maximum total generating capacity of almost 100 megawatts and provide enough low-carbon electricity to power 33,000 homes, the company said.
Nev. weighs future of 'failing' renewable portfolio standard
Nevada is mulling the future of its law requiring that some of its energy come from renewables as members of a state task force assert that the measure is no longer driving construction of new wind, solar and other clean energy projects. An advisory committee to Nevada's New Energy Industry Task Force, reconvened this year by Gov. Brian Sandoval (R), met yesterday to discuss strengthening the state's renewable portfolio standard or phasing it out. It could potentially be replaced by a policy that constrains how much fossil-fuel-fired generation is allowed in the state.
Tech Giants Pressure States On Renewable Energy
Large technology companies that use massive amounts of energy are now sourcing more power directly from renewables as opposed to purchasing renewable energy credits to offset their carbon footprints. "Direct sourcing is important to us because our goal is really the transformation of the electric grid," said Brian Janous, the director of energy strategy for Microsoft Cor
Murkowski urges Dems not to bury conference committee
Senate Energy and Natural Resources Chairwoman Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) is looking to convince wary Democrats against blocking the first energy bill conference committee in a decade. The Senate could vote as early as next week on whether to launch a conference with the House to seek compromise on energy reform legislation. The House voted before the Memorial Day recess to begin talks.

ISIHNG 2627 £ YAND*:.I I 1,1 v EL PASO, TX 7990* Tuesday Afternoon, January 26,1993Serving Comal County/ Home of Mattie Ott Vol. 141, No. 49 - Dally 50 cents, Sunday 75 centsCISD meeting draws parent, teacher responsesHays says each case will be dealt with separately at renewal time By ROSE MARIE EASH Staff Writer Last night about 25 of the more than 330 attendees at the Comal Independent School District (CISD) board meeting spoke up on the discrimination charges facing some district administrators. MWe are supportive of the board's statement that racial discrimination in our schools will not be tolerated," said Linda Robertson, a counselor at Mountain Valley Elementary. Those who know Mrs. Dees (Leigh Ann Dees, principal of Mountain Valley Elementary) know that she is a dedicated professional educator and is fair to all parents, faculty and students." Dees was reprimanded by the board in the actions taken on January 11. Robertson said as far as she knew the allegations against Dees were based on a single incident. The incident happened Dees alerted a patron of the district, whb's attention the board was trying to get by saying to her, They want you to make a twenty minute speech." The implication was that someone overheard the remark and misinterpreted her comments. The majority of the speakers were district employees supporting their school administrators. Some CISD students also spoke in support of the administrators. Among the speakers supporting the administrators were some Hispanics. One Hispanic speaker, however, questioned the motivation of many of the other speakers. MIt seems to me that now that they see that the school has decided to take some positive action—now they think, well, if that can happen to them, it can happen to me," said Domingo Herrera. On Jan. 23 the Comal Independent School District Board voted not to extend the contracts of three highranking district officials, issued a directive of reprimand to another and a notice of proposed termination to another after the discrimination investigation which began last summer. The charges of racial discrimination were made in the summer of 1992. In December, the board received the final report on the investigation and took action in January after legal requirements for personnel action were in place. Among the speakers last night included a parent of a child involved in a specific allegation. The parent said one of the incidents which had been described as an inappropriate, but nothing more than a prank, had involved more than just the reported pinch on the buttocks and deserved to be punished. Her testimony gave credence to many of the speakers' claims that the whole story had not been told in some cases. Among the Hispanic patrons defending the actions of the board was a woman who said her children are good students and not the disciplinary problems alluded to as the main reason for actions that were being described as discriminatory. She said despite the excellent records of her children in the district, she had to fight to assure that they were treated fairly. Prior to the audience participation section of the agenda, CISD board president Bill Hays made the following statements. "Before final action is taken at contract renewal time each administrator will be given an opportunity to fully discuss all concerns as well as their versions of the allegations," said Hays. "No discrimination was substantiated. I must emphasize no individual was found to display an evidence of discrimination. It is unfortunate that the public perceives this is a racial discrimination issue. There were areas that were substantiated that caused the board to take action. We cannot disclose specific findings for legal reasons and providing the areas of concern are corrected, we will not disclose these findings in the future." In a memorandum issued by the district, CISD administration said. The investigation initially began as one dealing with discrimination, but discrimination is only one of the various allegations being made." The memo was issued January 13, two days after the news reports based on the actions taken by the board. The Herald had requested a clarification from the district to include with the coverage the morning after the meeting. The public information officer, the president of the school board and the district's attorney were contacted. Information provided by the* district's attorney was included, but she wu the only person who would go on record for the district. Chamber honored with Achievement Award By GARY P. CARROLL Btett Writer The New Braunfels Chamber of Commerce was honored with an Achievement Award presented by the Texas Chamber of Commerce at its state convention in Austin last Thursday. New Braunfels lead the pack in its population category, 13,001 to 30,000, picking up the award for its efforts in comn^pity and economic development, in this, the first year of the award. The Chamber received the award for its active role in establishing and supporting the Hummel Museum. Newly installed Chamber Chairman Mike Dietert said New Braunfels had competition from numerous chambers throughout the state that submitted applications outlining the impact their projects had on their communities and their achievements during 1992. "For a chamber our size, they thought we were the best in the state," Dietert said, referring to the Chamber's work with the Hummel Museum. The Chamber was instrumental in organizing The Hummel Museum, Inc. • a non-profit organization developed to solicit funds for the general operations of the museum. New Braunfels Chamber President Tom Purdum said that this award is an honor for the city and it is a positive reflection of the Chamber's involvement with the community. "The award is presented honoring Chambers initiating programs in their community that have a positive civic and economic impact," Purdum said. "It would be a pretty tough act to follow," Dietert said, "but we would love to see it happen." The New Braunfels Chamber has an active membership of almost 1,150 members; 30-to-40 percent more than towns comparable in size. The State Chamber of Commerce Chairman of the Board Don Carleton, presented the award to Dr. Charles Berger. "This (award) is just another feather in the cap for the Chamber and the community," Purdum said. "We have great community involvement." Council seeks ways of stabilizing budget Mayor Clinton Brandt presents Don Woodhouat, Taxat president of the Jaycees, and Bill Russell, national president of the Jaycees, with the Office of the Burgermeister award at Monday night s City Council meeting. The award is a proclamation restricted to citizens outside the community who contribute to the betterment of life In America. (Photo by Karts Wenzel) Bremer suggests forming ethics committee C70 O By GARY P. CARROLL Blaff Writer The New Braunfels City Council convened Monday night and, among other agenda items, reviewed the city's annual financial report for the fiscal year which ended July, 31 1992. Darrell Sollberger, New Braunfels finance director, told the council members that although the city gained revenue with the sale of the old City Hall, it lost money in other areas. "One of the big losers has been the Safe City," Sollberger said. "One of the grants we were anticipating this year didn't come through. Sollberger said with waning interest rates on investments, the city did what it could to maintain them at 4 percent, but the market simply was not there. Another area in which the city lost money was in collections for the ambulance service. The city had budgeted to collect $270,000 for usage during the fiscal year, and only $230,000 wu collected. Another thorn in the side of the city's budget was the removal of gasoline tanks from the old city yard. Sollberger called for an extra $30,000 be transferred from the city's contingency budget to the funds allotted for the tank removal. Sollberger did say that some frrnds, an estimated $123,000, may be reimbursed to the city from the Texas Water Commission. "We are in compliance with TWC's requirements for reimbursement, but when the funds would be available is the big Question," Sollberger said. He added that the amount of the reimbursement would depend upon the condition of the soil with regard to possible chemical content as a result of sanitation trucks being parked on the property. However, he expects to at leut have 50 percent of the funds reimbursed. The fiscal year ended with the city increuing revenue by $137,033, due in part to the sale of the old City Hall building, but extra expenditures along with $46,000 in encumbrances, outpaced the revenues and left the city with a $140,345 deficit. Mayor Clinton Brandt said the city may have to take action to prevent future budget shortfalls. "I think one of the things we're probably going to be faced with is the inevitable and that might be a tax increase in order to do some of the things that need to be done, and basically shore up the budget," Brandt said. However, Councilmember Rudy Seidel suggested other means of stabilizing the city's budget. "We should figure out some way to put pressure on people to where they have to pay for services (such as ambulance service)," Seidel said. The Council then entertained a notion to have a point-of-service payment system for services rendered by the ambulance service which City Manger Hector Tamayo said Is being looked into. In other business, the council received the New Braunfels Utilities' financial audit for the fiscal year ending July 31,1992. Eugene Mornhinweg, chairman of the NbU board of directors, told the Council that the utility enjoyed a successful year and because of this, customers would be reaping the benefits. He announced that the utility would be returning $300,000 to its customers In the form of a refund applied to the February bill. Mornhinweg said the refund was a "one shot" occurrence because it Is Bee Council, Page I By GARY P. CARROLL Blaff Writer New Braunfels City Council Member Dan Bremer, at Monday night's meeting, called for the formation of an ethics committee to establish ethical guidelines for city employees. "The committee would put together some ethical standards that we would expect city employees to abide by," Bremer said. Bremer suggested that the committee be comprised of city officials, community leaders, and private citizens to devise the ethical standards that could be a part of a mandatory training program for all city employees. "All employees (would need to know) what we expect and what the citizens should expect from their city government," Bremer said. Council member Paul Fraser said Bremer's idea was "outstanding" and volunteered to be on the committee, as did Mayor Clinton Brandt. Bremer said the committee should be set up to teach city employees, including city officials, how to deal with and handle any and all situations they may encounter on the job. "I think it's important that all city employees have the ethical training so that there is no confusion as to how they should go about accomplishing their duties," Bremer said. When asked lf any particular incident influenced his idea to organize an ethics committee, Bremer said simply that city employees need to "know what the game is." Council proposes credit card system for payments By GARY P. CARROLL Staff Writer The New Braunfels City Council, faced with $140,000 in overexpenditures for the 1992 fiscal year, due in part to uncollected funds, entertained an idea for reducing uncollected funds by requiring services to be paid for at the time they are rendered • including ambulance service. The past year's budget showed $20,000 in uncollected funds from ambulance service, and Councilmember Rudy Seidel suggested that ambulance users pay for the service when the ambulance arrives on the scene. Seidel said that pressure ought to be applied to the people who used the service and did not pay, and the city should actively go about collecting these funds. They dam sure needed them ... they should be grateful enough that they would help and pay these fees," Seidel said. He told the Council that since most everyone has a major credit card, the possibility exists for the user to pay for the service upon the ambulance's arrival.

I am so popular I have currently sold out!
Brand: Tickle TotsSizing: One SizeEase of Use: ExcellentFastening: Hook & Loop
The Tickle Tots is a brand new one-size nappy, offering the ease of an All in One nappy, but the flexibility of a 2 part system.
An outer waterproof PUL layer contains moisture, while an absorbent core of 4 layers of bamboo fleece terry absorbs. The Tickle Tots features a pocket to allow for boosting the nappy further if required, and each nappy comes complete with an additional bamboo booster!
A key feature of the Tickle Tots is its double leg gussets- this feature is not found on many all-in-one or pocket style nappies, but can really help with containment and to ensure a snug fit!
One downside of the Tickle Tots is that due to the bamboo fibre and the high absorbency, the drying time is compromised and you can expect a higher drying time than average with this nappy. You can turn the nappy inside out however using the pocket, which will aid drying time.
One-Size- to fit from 10-35lbs approx.
Ordered this nappy in yellow to try and the colour is gorgeous, it reminds me of the sun.
Fits my 6 week old 2,3lbs son great. Never though an AIO could fit such a small child that good.
Ordered one of these to try as i couldnt resist the print! It does look lovely and it is a very absorbent nappy- very nice and soft too but it does take forever to dry!! I dont think i could have more than one or two of these as its just not very practical, unless you live somewhere very sunny or dont mind having your tumble dryer on for ages
Really pleased with how trim this nappy is. Lovely pattern and great softness and fit on my son. The absorbency is good too. One thing not so happy with it the length of time it takes to dry. We don't have drier and so on the line or on the airier you are looking at all day 24 hours or longer. Great reserve nappy.
Extremly soft and absorbet. It's very thin and it feats great. You shouldn't miss it
I like this nappy a lot. It fits my 9 months old boy great, no leeks so far, its trim nappy even with booster and it makes cute little bump. Blue whales print is gorgeous. Only downside is it take sooo long to dry.
I got given one of these as a gift from a friend and I hadn't tried them before. I loved the whale print and the fit was great with no leaks. It is a very slim nappy but still super absorbent. Due to it being a super absorbent bamboo it does take longer to dry but would rather this then a leaky nappy. Great find!
I'm new to cloth so maybe it's something I'm doing wrong but get leakage every time in these and take while to dry. Prefer other all in ones !
to start with i like this alot but it has a few hang ups first i love the prints and it feels really well made love the double gusset no problems with leaks but it has a sewn in pad that takes forever and a day to dry even in a dryer i would also like a popper option but am thinking of ordering a couple more as the fit is great and it does feel good quality

Cuenca y Blanco Cigar From Joya De Nicaragua to Debut
Gregory Mottola
Posted: May 18, 2012
In a collaborative effort between two industry veterans, Joya de Nicaragua president Dr. Martinez Cuenca and senior vice president José Blanco have teamed up to create the new brand Cuenca y Blanco, a multinational blend scheduled to be released at this summer's IPCPR trade show.
The cigar will consist of what Joya de Nicaragua calls "air-cured black tobaccos" from four different countries: Nicaragua, the Dominican Republic, Peru and Ecuador.
"As many know, I have always been deeply fond of Nicaraguan tobaccos," said Blanco, "but I am also very pleased to bring more origins, including my own Dominican heritage, to Joya de Nicaragua."
Cuenca y Blanco draws its flavor profile from a myriad of tobacco growing regions. The filler is a blend of tobacco from Estelí and Ometepe in Nicaragua combined with Peruvian leaves cultivated in Tarapoto. It's held together by a Dominican piloto Cubano binder from the La Canela region and finished with an Ecuadoran Habano wrapper.
"This cigar is the quintessential expression of how two minds, two experiences and two origins worked together," said Cuenca, "each venturing off our traditional paths of only making puros to instead creating a cigar of diverse tobaccos."
Cuenca y Blanco will come in 5 sizes: Corona Real (5 1/2 inches by 46), Robusto Deluxe (5 1/4 by 50), Toro Supremo (6 by 54), Torpedo Especial (6 1/4 by 52) and Lonsdale Club (6 1/2 by 44).
The brand is distributed by Drew Estate.
Comments5 comment(s)
Since I was not asked to contribute to the press release, I will add my thoughts right here. Hahahahahahahaha.
Working very closely with the Joya de Nicaragua factory over the last five years has been an incredible experience for me. The heritage, the culture, and the passion of Nicaragua is directly represented in this historical and prestigious brandmark - The First Cigar Brand From Central America.
Knowing Jose Blanco for many years as a senior executive at another respected company in the Dominican Republic, I was truly excited to hear the news of him making the shift to Nicaragua a while back. His love for premium cigars is unquestionable, and will certainly add to the life journey that is called Joya de Nicaragua.
These guys have been working on the blend for quite some time, but I could tell something special had happened during the last few weeks because of the excitement at the factory and on the production floor.
I have the feeling that we are about to witness a truly classic blending experience on this one.
It's nice to see CA give more in depth info on cigar news rather than mere press releases that many other sites post. Nice job Greg.

Chapter NineMature
"The situation is overwhelming, okay?" She defended herself shyly.
"I didn't mean to overwhelm you," Alex said quickly. "Everything I could suffer would seem miniscule compared to what you've endured. I would hate to overwhelm you even more."
Cora looked at Alex and saw a genuine sincerity in his eyes, when normally there was a yellow wall that reflected her worried expression right back to her. She grabbed his hand with as much bravery she could muster and steered Alex towards their exit, snatching up her duffle bag and the family's car key on their way out.
The early November morning was frigid with a cold, unforgiving wind; Cora's face was already nipped with rosy cheeks and nose by the biting air. Alex was unusually used to the cold – his body temperature was amped up a few degrees – so he became Cora's heater on their walk to the Volkswagen.
"So, what do you say we do? Where do we even go?" Cora asked Alex as they approached the vehicle. It was almost too good to be true, the girl thought, that she was finally on her own with her own independence dangling over her head.
"Well, I cannot drive, and I have little experience with other full-blooded humans. I only know so much about your world."

The Shelby County School Board voted unanimously at Thursday's meeting to fund an expanded summer school program.

If you are reading this now, you might be among those who has had a difficult time locating a job lately. Making things still worse is the international economic downturn, of which there appears to be no permanent end. More typically, there are more job seekers than jobs in the market and this might be difficult for a person who is a novice job hunter.
Every year, more and more people are inducted into the job market as students graduate from college or university and others change professions. The competition for employment comes to be tougher and in fact finding a job can take months, even years for some. Nevertheless, as much as finding a job is typically hard, you do have some quick fixes to make it more possible─ you just need to be focused in your objectives.
First step is to assess yourself and recognize what you really desire in life. Just what is your core capability or exactly what do you love doing? Converting your passion into your occupation may be your stepping stone to success. When you enjoy your work, everything comes to be simple─ your work becomes your satisfaction.
Next step is to recognize where you could seek the job you prefer. There are numerous sources for this─ periodical classified advertisements, online search, social media, and your personal network of buddies, relatives, neighbors, and additional relations. After picking a job you enjoy from any one of these resources, your next complication is how to write an impressive resume. This is the most important tool which may provide the key to that expected job interview and hence need to be written with utmost care and vigilance.
Nevertheless, after creating a great resume, you also should construct a cover letter. Luckily, there are cover letter examples on the internet which you may utilize as a manual. All you require is to search for the one that goes well your preference and design best.
To make things much easier, you could also make use of a cover letter template online and merely furnish the information. Then you may prepare for the interview. But, if you wish to be really equipped, you could learn all these straight from some service professionals that offer the essential training for these applications.

After sitting through seven agonizing rounds of selections, Applewhite found himself without a team and, worse, without a job.
But the misery didn't last.
Within hours, the San Diego Chargers - Applewhite's hometown team - dialed him up to request his services.
"Most of the calling started during and throughout the draft," Applewhite said. "When it was over and I was still on the board, they called me and said they wanted me, but didn't have any open picks during the draft."
Obviously it isn't a hard choice to make between Cleveland and San Diego in terms of just daily life, but the weather wasn't the only factor in Antwan's decision to sign with the Chargers over the Browns as an undrafted free agent.
"I made the choice to go with the Chargers for a reason," Applewhite said. "I know they've got a bunch of Pro Bowl defensive guys to learn from, and of course it's nice to stay on the West Coast."
Now the transition from Defensive End to Outside Linebacker is not as easy as some may think. We have already seen a failed experiment with DE Akbar Gbaja-Biamila last season. But Antwan is eager to work hard and learn from guys who have been successful in Shawne Merriman and Shaun Phillips. And with the lack of depth at that position, Applewhite has a nice chance to stick with the team. Hopefully he does.

Cocaine! It's the energy drink advertising executives, journalists and c-list celebrities have been waiting for. Cocaine is being billed as a 'legal
alternative' to the class A drug, using a massive hit of caffeine
instead of cocaine. The drink's inventor, Jamie Kirby, said: 'It's an
energy drink, and it's a fun name. As soon as people look at the can,
they smile.'
Kirby will be smiling too when Cocaine becomes insanely popular, as I'm sure it will. How can it fail, with such a cult, controversial name attached? Kids will think it's the coolest thing in the world to go into a shop and buy a can of Cocaine.
Cocaine reportedly contains 280 milligrammes of caffeine and is '350 percent stronger than
Red Bull' Yowza!
According to the company's website, the only way to get more caffeine
per ounce is with an espresso.
Cocaine is expected to launch in San Diego this week. Kirby says he
is already getting inquiries about selling the product in England.

Walden Revisited
When Henry David Thoreau wrote, The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation, he knew those words spoke a truth about the human condition across the ages. Reading Walden today seems more relevant than ever with its prescription for living authentically and simply in harmony with nature. Thoreau didnt use words like sustainability, but he would have immediately grasped the concept. In fact, he is considered the godfather of the environmental movement. Many modern readers, however, find his prose archaic and his Transcendentalist philosophy equally impenetrable.
Lucky for them, King-Cat creator John Porcellino has written a beautiful, thought-provoking book that allows readers to take in the essence of Thoreaus genius in a single sitting. King-Cat is known for its own exploration of existential themes in a format comics and manner that makes high-concept ideas accessible to a broad audience, and Porcellinos latest work, Thoreau at Walden, is no different. While not a word-for-word rendering of the original, it captures the spirit of Thoreaus masterpiece through imagery and a judicious use of quotes from both Walden and some of the authors lesser-known essays.
Porcellino celebrates the books release tonight, beginning with musical performances by Andy Falconetti (Breezy Porticos), Ted Thacker (Veronica/Baldo Rex) and Rotaree at 5 p.m. at Wax Trax, 683 East 13th Avenue. The concert will be followed by a book signing next door at Kilgore Books Denvers newest, hippest used bookstore from 7 to 8. Visit www.king-cat.net for more information.
