A note from Elena
Our little yoga oasis on the island of Gods as Balinese lovingly refer to their home, is a place I've been coming back to for years. It has something extremely special about it, something that needs to be experienced to be comprehended.I feel truly blessed and cared for when I'm in this simple and beautiful place. From the kindness, authenticity and integrity of the staff and therapists to the way the cleaning lady arranges fresh flowers in the bathroom and on my bed every morning – everything makes you feel warm and safe.
I love how animals are interacting with humans so naturally here – baby chickens stealing grains of rice from the offerings on the altar in the yoga shala, dolphins saying hello to the day as they jump out of the waves at sunrise, a cat family savouring the sunshine on the lawn among the palm trees, the gecko that announces his presence by stopping by our yoga and meditation class in the evenings and endless serenades of the birds.
Let yourself rest and immerse into the sweet essence and healing energy of the island, nourish yourself with sun ripened fruits and veggies, delicious spa treatments, the ocean and the mountains, as you deepen your yoga and meditation practice. We can't wait to welcome you here.
In this yoga retreat we will be staying in a beautiful retreat centre on a mountain overlooking the ocean.
In Bali, mountains symbolize humanity's relationship with Creation. Here, the earth elements of nature combine with the vitality of the island to create an environment where you can reconnect with yourself and nature.
This yoga retreat is an invitation to deepen your understanding of yoga and meditation, whether you are new to yoga or an experienced practitioner. Yoga retreat is a holiday that nourishes you on many different levels – physical, mental and emotional, recharging you and helping to attune to the vibration of radiant health. Daily yoga and meditation classes during the retreat create a great foundation for consistent and joyful practice and help you feel more open, strong and balanced.
Bali an island in Indonesia, an exceptional place on Earth that is full of prana, vitality, abundant with sun soaked fresh fruits and vegetables, abundant with joy and rich in spiritual tradition. You will be amazed how many shades of green exist on the island.

Chapter3 (v.1) - Chapter 3-Home-
Chapter 3
"Hey, Hayden, wake up. We are here." Catcher whispered softly in my ear. I had actually, slept. He was looking me deep in eyes. " We are!" I said loudly. "Shh! Don't wake the others. Lets you and me be the first." He murmured. I nodded, and gently lifted Levi's perfect head off my shoulder, and Catcher lifted Rye and moved him to a different cushion. No one woke luckily. And we slipped out the limo door. I gasped at the sight. The house was huge. Beautiful. It was the same piercing gaze green that Emerson has, with white shudders. It was four stories high, and holly bushes surrounded the bottom. Snow covered the ground, untouched, and was perfect dazzling white. I was in love. I heard the sea crash, and Catcher grabbed my hand, and pulled me to the back yard, opening a white fence door to a snow hill leading off into the crashing surf. " Its beautiful Catcher!" I gushed, hugging him tightly. He felt surprised by my hug, but happy. We swayed before he replied. " We should probably go get the others." He said gently pushing me off him. " Ok." I said smiling brightly. We walked quietly back to the limo, and stepped inside. I walked over to Levi, his eyelashes reaching all the way to his cheeks. I've always been jealous of the long lashes. " Levi…" I said gently rocking him. He awoke, fluttering his eyelashes, as he looked deep into my soul, with his-almost purple colored eyes. " Deep into my soul?" he snorted, sitting upright, and stretching out his feet. " You are so mean too me." I said, pouting. " Just kidding. I promise I will stay out of your head for today, it makes you more mysterious" he said giving me his widest smile. " I'll take it!" I said moving away, towards Emerson. " Emerson we are home." I shook him slightly. Emerson was different then the others. Levi couldn't read his mind. He immediately sat up, piercing his gaze into me. " Good." He said smiling at me. His sunglasses were back on in a millisecond, as well as his hat. I helped him up as the other's exited the limo. I listened to all the 'wow's' and 'oh my god's'. Catcher smiled proudly. He saluted the limo driver, and then the limo and the driver were gone. Literally. Rye screamed in delight and clapped. " Let's go inside!" Catcher smiled. The going inside part was kind of a tradition with us. We would all run around looking at everything then Catcher would count to ten, all of us lining up, and we would run around again claiming our bedrooms. Catcher got the key out of his pocket, and turned it in the huge French doors keyhole. We all heard a click, as Catcher pushed the handle and opened the doors. We screamed with excitement, and started running around. I ran into the completely furnished kitchen first, and screamed. White marble engraved the counters, and walls giving it a very elegant essence. Copper pots, and pans, were nailed to the wall. Huge sliding doors opened to the back yard sea view. I smiled, running to the next room. The dining room was huge, with an oak table that had at least 20 seats. Paintings of Italy hung on the walls, next to huge windows. I started off to the next room but then heard the whistle. Time to chose our rooms! Levi's voice sounded everyone. We walked to the huge gracing stairs that elegantly twirled a marble column. " In order from smallest to tallest." Rye was first in line (of course!) then me, then Emerson, Levi, and then Catcher. Soon he would blow the first whistle, and Rye would dart up stairs. Then the second, and so on. He blew the first one. Rye didn't run though, he skipped happily as if he already knew exactly what was up there. He disappeared around the staircase bend. Catcher glanced at his stopwatch, and then he quickly blew his whistle. I ran up those stairs in record time, for me at least, and was welcomed at the top bye a wide, white glossy hallway, I ran through, as I heard the third whistle, and then Emerson's equal in time foot steps trot to a slow beat. Beside me a large room, with electric blue walls, and a green couch, and a black fluffy carpet sat, practically calling one of the guy's names. I heard a D.S. noise screech out from the next room over a little ways. Rye had chosen his room already. The only problem with being the only girl in the group, was that I could always tell which room Catcher intended for me. I passed Rye's green room, with a white carpet, and large windows, and headed towards a hot pink door. Yes, hot pink. " Yes, hot pink." Levi said running past me winking. "Huff." I ignored him, as I walked up to the door. I slowly opened it holding my breath.

The ingenuity came in the form of junior defensive end Jonathan Bullard moving inside and playing exclusively at defensive tackle this spring. Senior Leon Orr missed the spring with injury and Bullard was supposed to be a guy that moved inside in pass rushing situations only, but he showed good effectiveness with his quickness against interior offensive linemen and so he stuck.
The move of Bullard was bolstered by a promising development of two others on the edge. Sophomore Bryan Cox played well as the starter at defensive end and did so at the onset of spring ball and until its conclusion. Cox's biggest issue has been fighting through direct blocks and he has worked hard on that through the spring. It is something he will continue to fight through.
Finding some relief for Fowler was also a necessity and sophomore Alex McCalister made some big strides from the start of spring. A victim of a bit of a sour attitude to start the spring, the light came on a bit with McCalister when he started seeing himself improve. Fighting the inferior attitude has allowed him to really become a weapon at times. He still needs another 15 pounds or so to continuously play at a high level, but there was progress made in that department in the off-season.
True freshman Taven Bryan isn't ready for prime time, but he has made enough noise and does enough things to draw the praise from the staff regularly and to know that he can be a force down the line. I expect Bryan to play as a freshman because he is physically ready to do so and he is able to keep up because of his motor. Red-shirt freshman Jordan Sherit has really not had much time to do anything yet this spring due to a hyper-extended elbow in the early going. He is back practicing but a work in progress still at this point.
On the inside, Orr missed the entire spring with a wrist injury, but should be back in the fall. He will remain in the mix up front with Bullard and senior Darious Cummings. Cummings is playing as well now as any defensive tackle did last year after Easley was gone. He has had a very good spring despite missing a week or so for family reasons. He's quick and he's also got some size to him to take on two blockers. He can provide some pass rush even from the interior.
Beyond Cummings there is talent, but there are a lot of questions about consistency when we talk about sophomore Joey Ivie, and red-shirt freshmen Jay-nard Bostwick, and Caleb Brantley.
Ivie is the most advanced of the trio, but didn't make much of a move this spring. He can play inside or outside, but seemed stuck inside this spring.
Bostwick probably made the biggest strides. He has quickness and size, he will see some playing time as a first reliever when the season starts. Brantley will play as well and like Bostwick it is all about playing snap after snap in a possession or two. The consistency is something these last three guys need to really work on and that is hard without really playing in games.
While the defensive line had numbers this spring, the linebackers were desperately low. Really four guys made it through most of the spring in senior Michael Taylor, junior Antonio Morrison, and sophomores Jarrad Davis and Daniel McMillian.
From what we visibly saw from the linebackers it was hard to tell if they made a lot of improvement simply because there was no tackling involved in almost all we saw. That said, the staff has been very pleased with the progression of Morrison, Davis, and Taylor and all three should be considered starters for the main two linebacker positions (MIKE ad WILL). The Gators played 80% NICKEL last year meaning they played without a SAM backer for most of the year and it looks to be even more in that direction this time around.
Of the four, McMillian was the one that needed a lot of snaps and did get those before recently being injured. He's back now and the spring has done wonders for both his play and his psyche. The physical part of the game has always been there for the super athletic linebacker from Jacksonville, it has been the mental part of the game and the confidence that comes with knowing what you are doing.
The Gators do need more numbers. There will be times when a SAM backer is needed on the field. Senior Neiron Ball is a seasoned guy that they know they can count on and he missed the entire spring with an injury. They will get back Jeremi Powell, Alex Anzalone, and Matt Rolin in August and they will have to play a lot of catch up. The depth at the position without all those reps is a concern for now.
While Florida will start two new safeties, there is a bit of experience and a lot of talent at the position. One thing is also for sure, they all got a lot of reps this spring.
The starters coming out of spring ball look like senior Jabari Gorman and sophomore Marcus Maye. Gorman has been a productive player on the field whenever he has been inserted in his Gator career. It doesn't seem like this will be his fourth year on campus though. He's a hard hitter and is always around the ball.
Maye is steady and heady. He has had a good spring as well and the staff feels confident in these two. But, the third guy will get heavy in the mix. Even though sophomore Keanu Neal injured his knee in the first practice of spring and missed most of the drills, he has come on real strong here at the end and will be a huge factor in who starts at safety when the season begins. Neal is built more like Jarrad Davis than a safety, and he hits like a linebacker too. Bu, he has the speed and instincts to play well at the position.
The Gators finished the spring with good depth with Nick Washington, Marcell Harris, and Marqui Hawkins also in the mix. Both are physically ready to play, Washington was a quasi-safety anyway playing corner and NICKEL, but will likely see more time at safety moving forward.
Don't rule out Harris making a move either. His first day was tough and he has gotten an earful from the staff during practice, but he takes coaching very well and has the size, speed, and quickness to be a very good one. Hawkins is playing catch up after moving over from receiver half way through the spring.
Cornerback is another thin position that will add three freshmen in the fall. One spot is locked up entirely by sophomore Vernon Hargreaves, but the other is work in progress. Hargreaves is primed for an All-American season after garnering Freshman AA honors in 2013. He has also been busy helping his younger teammates at the position.
The other spot right now will likely be manned by Jalen Tabor heading into fall camp. The long and physical Tabor is a perfect fit for what they want to do, but he is still adjusting to the fast pace and speed of the game at this level as a guy that just arrived in January out of high school.
Junior Brian Poole is also getting a look outside, but will likely be the starting NICKEL. Poole is best suited inside but has the tools to go out.
Poole (24-White)
Finally freshman Duke Dawson has probably surprised most with his ability to come in and compete right away. He isn't ready to start on game day, but he is fearless, physical, and faster than most might believe. He is also battling Poole for that NICKEL spot.
The numbers at corner are scary and all the backups will come in the form of freshmen J.C. Jackson, Quincy Wilson, and Deiondre Porter who will all be in school in June. All of them better be ready to play when they arrive.
In the end, the Gators look to have a very productive first group on defense… real players at almost every position to start with and a lot of very talented young guys behind them that will have to learn on the job in the fall.

But, since the manager app is also sitting in Tomcat's webapps directory, which has auto-deploy turned-on for your localhost <Host>, it will deployed there as well. I'm not sure there's really a problem with that (it's just another deployment, under a different <Host>), but I just wanted to point out that it /will/ be deployed twice in your configuration, when you are trying to really have it only deploy once (for testing). > This is similar to the instructions at > http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/manager-howto.html > > A default Tomcat installation includes the manager.

Yup, and it's as easy as duplicating the manager.xml file into each of your conf/Catalina/[hostname] directories. You shouldn't have to do anything else at all (except maybe modify the <ResourceLink> to point to maybe another type of user database. > I did a direct copy [of manager.xml].

Those mentioned in your original post (like "Document base .../apache-tomcat-6.0.20/./manager does not exist")? The only reason I can think of to get that odd error would be to mess with the docBase in the manager.xml file itself. Otherwise, I'm at a loss. I might suggest wiping your TC install and starting again, step-by-step. It's possible that you're broken something else somewhere and we'll have a tough time finding it. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkqT9YAACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PCS1QCghtkCCglzZj19CqywFXyRipb6 EAYAnifZVMGkJb5IkzjTnOEKE6LCaRqG =7s1B -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com For additional commands, e-mail: email@example.com

At least five terror suspects who are due to have restrictions on their movement lifted at the end of this week remain highly dangerous, according to previously unpublished court papers, Labour has said.
The five suspects have been subject to two-year Tpims – terrorist prevention and investigation measures – which are due to lapse on 26 January and cannot be renewed unless fresh evidence is produced.
The court papers show that the five were described by the home secretary in their latest court hearings as continuing to pose a threat to the UK.
They also disclose that several of the suspects – who can be known only as BF, CF, CD, AM and BM – continue to have ambitions to travel to Syria, Somalia and Pakistan to engage in terrorist-related activity. In some cases the judge specifically noted a continued commitment to terrorist-related activity and developments that had reaffirmed those views.
The Home Office has said the police and MI5 will put "tailored plans" in place to manage the threat posed by the five suspects when the supervision measures expire.
It is expected that the restrictions on seven of the eight suspects currently subject to Tpims will be lifted this month. The restrictions imposed by the home secretary include overnight residence curfews and strict controls on travel, finance and communications. Unlike the control order regime they replaced, Tpims that last 12 months can only be extended for one year unless evidence of new terrorist-related activity is found.
The shadow home secretary, Yvette Cooper, said the court papers showed that at least five of the seven remained a threat to the public.
She said: "The home secretary has said nothing at all about what she is doing about these men now Tpims are ending. She can't just ignore public concerns in this way. Theresa May needs to tell us urgently: does she believe these men whose restrictions she is lifting now are no longer dangerous? Does she think it is now safe to let them go without restrictions? Can she assure us they pose no threat to London?
"We hope they have changed their views and behaviour, but the home secretary needs to tell us what security experts think?"
Cooper said an urgent independent threat assessment was needed on each Tpim suspect.
The security minister, James Brokenshire, has said the police and security service believe Tpims have been effective in reducing the national security threat posed by a number of individuals.
"It is not possible to discuss individual cases, but the police and security service have been working for some time to put tailored plans in place to manage the risk posed by these individuals once their Tpim restrictions are removed. These plans, which are similar to those put in place for the release of prisoners who have served their sentences, are kept under constant review," Brokenshire said.

Here are my tips to keep you looking sharp for Fall:
1. Try some color. Just like the leaves on the trees, Fall's colors are more muted but richer and great for mixing and matching. If you use the natural world as your guide you can't go wrong. Keep things tonally the same and you can combine lots of colors, like wearing our Hunter Brushed Twill pants with our Brown Concord Cotton Crewneck.
2. Layer up. The weather can change on a dime. It can be cool in the morning and warm by midday. A shirt, a light sweater and a lightweight coat or blazer is the perfect fall combo. Top it off with a lightweight scarf to combat the morning chill and you'll look pulled together and sharp.
3. The lace up boot. There are some great shoe makers making terrific ankle boots in leather and suede. We love Oak Street Bootmakers and Helm. We also love the classic Clark Desert Boot. They now come in a terrific array of colors and are relatively inexpensive, so you can pick up a new pair every year. I keep coming back to these year in and year out.
4. Be prepared. it can be dark and chilly all of sudden leaving the office at 5 or 6. Always have a pair of gloves in your bag just in case. These half-knit leather gloves from Club Monaco give your preppie side a little bit of rock.
5. Get a good, simple hat. It will be hat weather sooner than you think. A good hat, gloves and a dashing scarf can keep that Tribeca Field Jacket working well into December. We love a plain cashmere knit cap or a wool baseball type cap in grey or navy. Sporty and practical. Adult but cool. Treat yourself to this Fisherman Ribbed Cashmere Beanie hat from Burberry.
6. Break out the cords and twills. Cords are not really warmer but something about the texture makes them feel like they are. And it's that texture that gives your outfit visual interest and sophistication. Either in the five-pocket version (ours are coming soon) or the classic trouser style, you can pair them up with a plaid flannel shirt and classic leather belt and you'll look (and feel) comfortable and sophisticated.

The Heavy
That Kind Of Man
Welcome to The Heavy, kings of a kind of (West) Country voodoo soul which mixes and matches Curtis Mayfield, Rza, H.P.Lovecraft, Stax, Led Zeppelin and Screamin' Jay Hawkins into the kind of cauldron-melting potion which is utterly original, haunting, weird, sexy and unsettling all at once.
Click here - The Heavy - That Kind Of Man - Video
The hairs on the back of your neck are standing up. And not just your neck. On your arms. The small of your back. The backs of your legs. Is it fear or something else? Something a little harder to admit to? What's that over there? Are you scared? Wishing you hadn't come down to the woods? Or actually, secretly, glad that you did?
Hailing from the poor, insular and dark countryside which surrounds Bath, the Heavy sound both possessed and insinuating, a kind of stealthy wickedness which overflows from their debut album, "Great Vengeance & Furious Fire". First, though, comes their single, "That Kind of Man
A furious hip soul stomper in which wall upon wall of guitar is rammed up against tight horn riffs and the remarkable vocals float above the melee, "That Kind Of Man" is the perfect introduction to the Heavy's unique sound. Superficially, "Coleen" sounds nearer to classic soul territory but there is a UK rawness to the sound, an edginess that makes it pure Heavy. The package is completed by "Easier", a more laid-back, bluesy version of this band's distinctive template.
Be afraid. Be very afraid.

Pretty important people to send two SEAL teams after them. I don't want a SEAL shot to rescue 2 hostages. What gives? I hope they took out some important target in this raid and the hostages were a bonus.
I'd like all the would-be kidnappers to have cionstant nightmares of SEALS coming to visit.
One of these hostages must have an influential relative/friend to merit this action. Somalia has kidnappings on an hourly basis... there are plenty of hostages we could rescue.
That's what SEAL teams do. SEALs, Marines (SEAL trained), Rangers, Delta Force, and Special Forces are trained to rescue ANY American at any opportune time. They dedicate their lives to that purpose, no matter how many may die. We lost much of SEAL Team 6 to go in and rescue trapped military and a couple civilians. Still not sure that was the best move to put them all on one helo, but then I wasn't the commander.
They are ready to die first and fight to the last no matter what the mission. If it takes two teams to rescue one American, I back the mission.
They are the military equivalent of SWAT. Give your life to save lives. I can't possibly have a higher regard for their basic mission.

TravelPod Member ReviewsApple's Retreat by Apple & Noi Kanchanaburi
this is a review for Apple's Retreat over the bridge from the main road - there is another closer in town.
The staff at Apples Retreat are wonderful and the Restaurant serves lovely food. The rooms are adequate, if not a little uncomfortable - very firm beds and they only clean the rooms every 3 days (which meant they didn't clean our room or change our towels once during our stay). They are environmentally conscience, but really? Don't bother there for breakfast as a cup of tea will put you back 85 baht instead of 20 baht down the street.
I think they are just getting used to the ropes in their new expanded place, so this is a mixed review, but I would try them again.
This review is the subjective opinion of a TravelPod member and not of TravelPod.com.

Rita Ora: Catwoman Strikes London!
Channeling a bit of Catwoman, Rita Ora left her hotel in a unique outfit on Friday (March 28).
The "Hot Right Now" singer wore a patent leather headpiece; red, black, and gray fur coat, and black leather pants as she headed outside the Dorchester.
Posting a photo of herself and a masked gal pal also in black leather, the 23-year-old songstress wrote, "Bat and cat.."
Earlier in the evening, she donned the same coat and red leather to check out Chloe Green's Topshop fashion collection.

The Costa del Sol is undoubtedly one of Europe's top holiday destinations during the busier spring, summer and autumn seasons; however, what many people don't know is that it's also a popular resort for those looking for a winter sun break!
One of the main reasons for this popularity is the mild and sunny weather which prevails during the winter months (December, January and February).
If you're from the UK or Ireland, it's sometimes difficult to believe that you're on the same continent! You look out of your window and all you see are gloomy clouds and rain… to add to the dreariness, you step out the door and you're met by freezing temperatures and on occasions, snow and ice!

Because the focus is on biophysical impacts, e.g., hydrologic response, crop yields, land use, etc. Assessment is an integrating process requiring the interface of physical and social science and public policy Effective V&A Assessments (continued) General questions What is the assessment trying to influence? How can the science/policy interface be most effective? How can the participants be most effective in the process? General problems Participants bring differing objectives/ expertise These differences often lead to dissention/ differing opinions – this is where MCA can help in prioritization Effective V&A Assessments (continued) To be valuable, the assessment process requires Relevancy Credibility Legitimacy Consistent participation An interdisciplinary process The assessment process often requires a tool The tool is usually a model or suite of models These models serve as the interface This interface is a bridge for dialogue between scientists and policy makers The Water Resource Sector Water's "Trade-Off" Landscape W a te r fo r n a tu re W a te r fo r a g ric u ltu re W a te r q u a n tity W a te r q u a lity S e a s o n a lity o f flow R e g u la tio n W a te r fo r re c re a tio n D o m e s tic w ate r W a te r fo r in d u s try Water Resources from a Services Perspective Not just an evaluation of rainfall-runoff or streamflow But an evaluation of the potential impacts of global warming on the goods and services provided by freshwater systems Water Resources – A Critical V&A Sector External Pressure Must consider both managed and natural systems Human activity influences both systems Managed Systems Product, good or service Process Control Example: Agriculture External Pressure Natural Systems State of System services Little Control of processes Example: Wetlands Hydrologic 'External Pressures' related to Climate Change Precipitation amount Temperature increase Change in timing of streamflows Glacier retreat Precipitation frequency and intensity Global average increase Marked regional differences Less frequent, more intense (Trenberth et al., 2003) Evaporation and transpiration Increase total evaporation Regional complexities due to plant/atmosphere interactions Specific Pressures: Annual Runoff Change in annual runoff (A2 scenario) Arnell., 2003 Specific Pressures: Annual Runoff Change in annual runoff (A2 scenario) Arnell., 2003 Specific Pressures: Annual Runoff Change in annual runoff (A2 scenario) Specific Pressures: Runoff timing, analogy to North American West Stewart et al., 2004 Analogy with Western North America http://plasma.nationalgeographic.com/mapmachine/index.html Analogy with Western North America http://plasma.nationalgeographic.com/mapmachine/index.html Specific Pressures: Runoff timing, analogy to North American West 250 1250 200 1000 Inflow spilled 150 750 100 500 50 250 0 Reservoir storage (TAF) Inflow and Demands (TAF) Refill lost 0 OCT NOV DEC JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUN JUL AUG SEP Historic Inflow PCMA1fi Demand Reservoir Storage Specific Pressures: Retreating glaciers Retroceso del glaciar Broggi Glaciar en 1979 y 1997 Evolución del glaciar Chacaltaya (Bolivia) Fluctuación del frente de 4 glaciares en Perú Comunicación Nacional del Perú a la UNFCCC Francou et al., 2000 Specific Pressures: Retreating glaciers Meltwaters are depended upon during dry season to sustain low flow periods Probable diminished volume and earlier timing of flows Has implications for hydropower production, agricultural demands, and river and riparian quality and ecosystem needs Specific Pressures: Extreme weather Climate variability (El Nino/Nina Southern Oscillation) impact water availability and all economic sectors en several countries in the region (e.g. Peru, Ecuador, Central America) (IPCC 2001).

What questions are you trying to answer? Hydraulic Model Critical questions How fast, deep is river flowing (flooding effects) How do changes to flow and channel morphology impact sediment transport and services provided (fish habitats, recreation, etc). Hydrology Model Critical questions How does rainfall on a catchment translate into flow in a river? What pathways does water follow as it moves through a catchment? How does movement along these pathways impact the magnitude, timing, duration, and frequency of river flows, as well as water quality? Planning Model Critical questions How should water be allocated to various uses in time of shortage? How can these operations be constrained to protect the services provided by the river? How should infrastructure in the system (e.g., dams, diversion works) be operated to achieve maximum benefit (economic, social, ecological)? How will allocation, operations, and operating constraints change if new management strategies are introduced into the system?

Well maybe except for a few street gangs but I had taught them enough lessons about messing with me they wouldn't make a move unless I was gone. Still though no matter where we went who we saw that Fred guy was on my mind. Who was he? What was he? I had to know. Ten 'o'clock came around fast and I found myself walking towards my neighbourhood with Josh both of not talking, and Aloof look in my eyes as I stared the stars. I wondered what would happen if I tried to steal the energy of a star, what would happen? Behind us I hear heavy steps, Instinctively I turn around with my palm out stretched. With the little light a tall, and big shadowy figure stood staring intently at my palm.
"Allen it's him." Josh says with a calm voice.
Wack I find my self stumbling backwards, the shadowy figure coming in and out of focus, then I realized who it was. Fred.
"Josh run!" I yell frantically, but to late, Fred had picked him up and raised him five feet off the ground like he was a five pound weight. I get off my ass and beginning gathering energy.
"Let him go Fred, Its me you want isn't it?" I say both hands glowing violent blue, as a small storm gathered in them. Fred looks into my eyes for the first time I see his dark brown eyes with their true intent of hatred. I wondered what or who he hated and why.
"Allen I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner, but.." Josh said but was stopped in mid sentence as Fred began to choke him. I rushed forwards but was stopped by a wall of concentrated air. Out of the blue came a blast of wind knocking me forwards, and before I knew it I saw Josh comfortably hovering in mid air, as Fred was busy flying backwards into a parked car.
"You you, you have powers?" I say completely amazed.
"Yup, just like you I guess." He says letting himself down.
"You.. you know?" I say shocked.
" Well there was a bunch of press about it man but it was covered up, still I had to meet you."
Fred began his counter attack.
"Later man."
"Alright, Josh but your going to let me lead here. got it?"
"Got it."
I nodded, and blasted Fred with a pillar of concentrated energy. He blocked the attack outright by holding his palms up against. However the energy did not disperse it pressed him back, so he was stuck and wide open. I Ran forwards as Josh hovered above making another tornado of wind that was picking up a large amount of debris. I packed a punch filld with energy and let it all hit Fred's chest. The force sent Fred backwards as well as burning him pretty hard. The pillar of concentrated energy dispersed lighting up the tree surrounded street as well as making a loud explosion like noise. The light died down and Fred Emerged slightly burnt his clothes torn but for the most part unharmed.
"My turn." Josh said. With the debris he picked up he blasted it at Fred, however the attack did very little as Fred simply put his hand in front of his face.
"What is up with this guy?" I asked. So far everything we threw at him had little effect.
"Still don't get it." Fred said solemnly, " I can male force fields around my body much like you can Allen. Actually exactly like you since I got my powers from you. Its a wonder what a scientist can do with a 10 strands of hair."
My jaw dropped, this...guy.... has my powers....from ten strands of hair.
"Oh so you think you can fight the real thing hug?" Josh shoots back," You weren't born with the power Fred unlike Allen and I here, so you are at a disadvantage."
"True that you were an unexpected part of the equation here, but I'm sure no one knows better then Allen that his force fields are impenetrable."
I smiled at his arrogance, they are tough but not indestructible, I learned that.
" Your going to need more than Force fields to beat me Fred. I could take you one on one." I say making a fist in the air at him. Energy built around me burning the pavement below me, " Josh Get back I'm going to show this poor imitation of my powers how wrong he is." I said my voice sounding very dark and threatening. Fred just looked at me with little emotion. Inside my body pained I hadn't used my powers on this level since the fight with Owen, actually it seemed since I went light speed that whenever I synchronized my body with energy I would feel this pain. I hesitated. Fred took the advantage of my pain and made three walls of force fields. I closed my eyes and pushed the pain aside for now. I threw my hand out a layer of energy shattered his force fields while cutting down the trees all down to the same level. Fred eyes opened wide before I ran forward and punched him in the chest shattering the force field he had around him. I let out a small amount of energy to make sure Fred wouldn't get up and to teach him a lesson about using my powers.
Fred went flying back once again incapable of fighting the true nature of my power over energy. However the pain had taken its toll the energy I had gathered dispersed, and I fell to my knee's coughing up blood. Josh ran up beside me.
"What happened are you okay?"
" I'll be fine. Get to Fred, and figure what he is doing here." I order as I cough up more blood, my hand clutching my chest. What is wrong with me?
Josh nodded, taking my word that I will be fine and ran up to Fred who was probably on the brink of Consciousness, I got up and managed to stumble my over.
"Who sent you?"Josh shook Fred's heavily burnt body.
"Screw you." He replied, this pissed me off. My right fist bursted with more energy that I could feed this little bastard.
"Do you want to eat this?" I say grabbing what was left of his jacket. His eyes widened, " Yeah I thought so." I said letting the energy disperse peacefully back into the air," So what are you doing here, who sent you?"
"I don't know who sent me , they were scientist, I could tell you that much they knew after the created me, they needed more, so they decided they we're going to capture every superhuman in the world. Currently they have Kevin Meadows, Sapphire, some rumours Caleb stone but who is to say."
"Caleb he is still alive?What about Linsey Smyth?" I ask shouting now very concerned.
"I don't know." He shrugged now losing consciousness.
"Where are these bastards?" I growl shaking Fred, " England." He said before slipping away into unconsciousness. I laid him down on the ground as sirens were sounded in the distance.
"We need to get out here." I say," And tomorrow we're going to England. On the way there Josh your going to tell me everything, and why you didn't say that your had powers sooner."

Open since May of 1967, Club 33 was created by Walt Disney as a secret venue for entertaining important celebrities, politicians and park investors. Decorated with antiques personally chosen by Disney and his wife, it remains the only place in Disneyland that serves alcohol.
Located in New Orleans Square above The Pirates of the Caribbean ride, with no ornate signs to help you locate it, one would have to go looking for the door in order to find it. Even if you've never heard of the Club, chances are you've unknowingly walked passed it; there's just a small, simple "33" address plate marking the outside.
Upon entering, diners are presented with the choice of either taking the stairs or an old French elevator that Disney and his wife had replicated after one they fell in love with while in Paris.
The second floor contains many of the original artworks by Disney artists, including original sketches of New Orleans Square, Mary Poppins and the Pirates of the Caribbean ride. Another unique piece is Lillian Disney's harpsichord, which Elton John and Paul McCartney have famously played. When the top is open, an exquisite hand-painted scene of Jackson Square and the Mississippi River from the 19th century is revealed.
The Waiting Room and Main Dining Room are very formal-looking, with décor is reminiscent of early 19th century restaurants. The adjacent Trophy Room has a hunting theme -- Disney originally had a vulture that could interact with diners via microphones in the chandeliers.
The Club is open for lunch and dinner and costs approximately $100, which does not include entrance to the theme park -- that costs another $100. The meal includes an all-you-can-eat appetizer bar along with your choice of seasonal entrée off the menu, and an all-you-can-eat dessert bar.
Many details in the club are made especially for Club 33. The tableware emblazoned with the 33 moniker is made in England; the pens used to sign the bill are flown into California with a Disneyland staff member.
According to the staff, memberships are limited to around 500 members to keep crowds to a minimum. Unfortunately with an ever-growing wait list, new applicants can be on hold for about 14 years just for the chance to pay the exorbitant $25K initiation fee with an additional $10K annual membership fee. Applicants must also pass a rigorous background check. Even money does not guarantee you an invitation.
Would you pay over $25,000 a year to become a VIP at the Happiest Place on Earth? I guess it depends on what exactly makes you happy.

Buyer beware!by Nancy
I purchased a couple of sets a few years ago and only a few have held up okay. Most of them have cloudy glass that is impossible to clean, the itching is fine, but the entire glass looks horribly dirty, smudged, cloudy and dirty, as though I don't know how to clean a glass! I've tried everything. A really cheap product, which of course, is no longer returnable, but since when don't glasses hold up for a few, if not several years? I happened to look at reviews to see if I am the only one - nope, it's a product problem. STOP selling junk, Wisteria. Treat your customers with respect! On the plus side: perfect size, easy to hold.

Audie Award Winner, Erotica, 2015
The first time it happened, it seemed like an impossible miracle. Bills were piling up, adding up to more money than I could ever make. Mom's hospital bills. My baby brother's tuition. My tuition. Rent. Electricity. All of it on my shoulders. And I had just lost my job. There was no hope, no money in my account, no work to be found. And then, just when I thought all hope was lost, I found an envelope in the mail. No return address. My name on the front, my address. Inside was a check, made out to me, in the amount of 10 thousand dollars. Enough to pay the bills and leave me some left over to live on until I found a job. Enough to let me focus on classes. There was no name on the check, just "VRI Inc.", and a post office box address for somewhere in the city. No hint of identity or reason for the check or anything. No mention of repayment, interest, nothing...except a single word, on the notes line: "You". Just those three letters.
If you received a mysterious check, for enough money to erase all your worries, would you cash it?
I did.
The next month, I received another check, again from VRI Incorporated. It too contained a single word: "belong."
A third check, the next month. This time, two words. Four letters. "To me."
The checks kept coming. The notes stopped. Ten thousand dollars, every month. A girl gets used to that, real quick. It let me pay the bills without going into debt. Let me keep my baby brother in school and Mom's hospice care paid for. How do you turn down what seems like free money, when you're desperate? You don't. I didn't.
And then, after a year, there was a knock on my door. A sleek black limousine sat on the curb in front of my house. A driver stood in front of me, and he spoke six words: "It's time to pay your debt."
Would you have gotten in?
I did.
It turns out $120,000 doesn't come free.

Whew....that was....WOW!
- NEW NAME "Say something about yourself!"
Such a DISAPPOINTMENT!!!
This book was way over the top. The female lead throws all her values out the door just because of a hot billionaire and in just 1-2 days!!, please give me a break. For someone meant to be level-headed and focused not highly likely. Speaking of hot billionaire, what a joke! This book was more about sex that anything else. It just did not work. So I guess if something erotic is what you are looking for then this might work for you.
Focus more on building realistic and likable characters.
I am on the border with Summer. She isn't the worst narrator out there but I wouldn't jump at listening to her any time soon. Unfortunately, I did not make it to the end of this book, can't comment on Tyler's narration.
All characters! Harris was more vicious than macho, I mean he killed people just because his employer told him so. Valentine was so weird, I just don't see how any female would not think "serial killer" esp after learning he has been watching and stalking you for years! Kyrie, well I am all for going after love but she seemed very superficial and weak. Giving in so easily especially after the author builds her up to be this down-on-her-luck level headed female made me picture her as weak and full of herself!
I would not waste a credit on this.

This weekend was eerily void of marquee matchups. The only matchups between a pair of top-25 teams were No. 16 Nebraska vs. No. 22 UCLA and Oklahoma State hosting Arizona.
UCLA and Arizona have been rewarded for their risk-taking with rankings in the Top 25 while Nebraska and Oklahoma State were exposed.
One of the cringe worthy comedies in recent memory was 2010's Dinner With Schmucks starring Paul Rudd as an ambitious exec who takes part in an office competition to bring the most half-witted guest to the boss' dinner.
That harebrained plot defined the weekend in college football. Besides LSU, and the aforementioned program most of this week's matchups involved overmatched David's against Goliaths.
Although, this philosophy blew up in Arkansas' face, the award for best guest belongs to Florida State, which replaced West Virginia (who was off after a "rivalry" match against Marshall in Week 1) with FCS cellar dweller Savannah State, who has been outscored 139-0 through six quarters of football.
UCLA May Have Best Freshman QB In The Nation In Brett Hundley
While USC continues to fall from their No. 2-ranking, No. 22-ranked UCLA's trajectory have leapt into the Top 25 for the first time since 2008.
Through his first two games, Hundley looks to be the best freshman signal caller in the nation. From his very first college snap, a 72-yard touchdown to the final seconds of his 21-of-33, 322-yard, four touchdown performance the 19-year old has looked he's been playing college football since Troy Aikman was tossing touchdowns in Westwood.
It's hard not to fantasize about the possibilities for UCLA's 6-foot-3, 223 pound, dual threat and the future of Jim Mora's Bruins.
Johnathan Franklin Enters Heisman Convo
Keeping with the UCLA theme, not since Maurice Drew was tearing up the Rose Bowl turf has a Bruins running back been uttered in the same sentence as the Heisman Trophy. Recently, a billboard promoting Matt Barkley's Heisman candidacy was placed and quickly blacked out over UCLA's campus. However, fresh off Franklin's second consecutive 200-plus yard rushing performance voters have been on notice.
Montee Ball faltered, De'Anthony Thomas was outshined by starter Kenjon Barner and Le'Veon Bell cooled down against Central Michigan. Conversely, Franklin blazed through Nebraska's vaunted defense for 276 yards, including 217 by ground.
Anti-Heisman Award: Taylor Martinez
Such is the circle of life. When one Heisman candidacy is born, another is destroyed. Taylor Martinez's purported evolution as a passer was the misleading promise since Dr. Dre's annual Detox release date announcement. One week after a marvelous passing performance, Martinez reverted back into the one-dimensional scrambler that's held Nebraska's offense. Let's face it, Martinez will never develop a Troy Smith or Aaron Murray-type skillset. He's simply Eric Crouch without the mad genius offensive coordinators and minus game breaking ball carriers.

Passing on a chance to pitch for the Kentucky Wildcats in the Southeastern Conference, Butler instead decided to start his professional career.
The Cardinals sent Butler to the Gulf Coast League where he excelled. The 20-year-old recorded six saves while striking out 34 in 28.1 innings. The circuit hit only.182 against the Kentucky native. Before his season was done, he was promoted to Johnson City where he would appear in two games. Pitching an inning in each, Butler did not allow a hit as he struck out four Appy League hitters.
I had a chance to speak with Keith recently before the end of his first professional season.
Dustin Mattison: Tell me about your early professional baseball experience.
Keith Butler: It has been great. I had to make a decision to go to Kentucky or go pro. If I knew what it was like here, there would have been no decision because I want to be here.
DM: Is there anything that stands out as being really surprising?
KB: Not really. Nothing has really changed. It is just a different level.
DM: Tell me about draft day. Were the Cardinals the team you expected to pick you?
KB: Yeah. I was at school, watching it on the computer. I was sitting there waiting for the call.
DM: Was it the scout that contacted you?
KB: Yes. He called me and asked me if the money was right and I told him that is what I wanted.
DM: Tell me about your repertoire.
KB: Fastball, changeup, and slider.
DM: Most of the recent draft picks I have talked to have started working on the sinker. Have the Cardinals had you start working on the pitch as well?
KB: Yes, they have.
DM: You were a reliever in college and are doing the same since turning professional. Is that where you are most comfortable?
KB: However they want to use me is fine with me but I do feel more comfortable coming out of the bullpen.
DM: Did you have much free time to make it down to the beach?
KB: After the game, you are usually pretty tired. So we go back and take a nap and by the time we get up it is nighttime.
DM: You grew up in Morgantown, KY, in the heart of Cardinal territory. Did you grow up a Cardinal fan?
KB: No, I have always been an Atlanta Braves fan. It is a family thing, my dad, my uncle, and my cousins have always been Braves fans.
DM: What did you know about the Cardinal organization before the team drafted you?
KB: I knew that they are a young team and have always been one of the top teams.
DM: When you are not playing baseball, how do you like to spend your time?
KB: I like to hang out with the guys.
DM: If you were not a baseball player, what career would you be pursuing?
KB: I wanted to become a teacher so that I could teach baseball.
DM: How much do the guys in the minor leagues watch the happenings in the organization at the big league level?
KB: We watch the games to evaluate how our games are similar or different to the big league games.
DM: What should Cardinal fans know about you that they don't know?
KB: My girlfriend is from St. Louis and she always told me that one day I would be drafted by the Cardinals. She has been pretty excited about all of this.
