Now comes the time when I get to eat. I'm all excited and happy, for once. I realise I have worn the same clothes for the last four days, I really don't care. I reach for the strawberry deodorant on the top of my drawers and spray my clothes with it. I enjoy the smell of strawberries.
I walk out of my room and to the front door, unlock it, walk out and then lock the door. Next thing, I feel someone breathing down the back of my neck.
"Mmmmmm strawberries" a familiar female voice whispers into my ear. I feel my heart in my mouth, my heartbeat in my ears and my throat has suddenly gone as dry as a bone. I go to turn, but my right arm is held tightly and an elbow is being shoved into my back.
"Missed me?" she asks. I am speechless, flabbergasted and baffled to what is going on. "Twenty years and you've got nothing to say to me you little bitch."

Otara launches personalised fitness boutique at ODEL:
Providing personalised fitness training to health and body-shape
conscious individuals has become the latest project of Otara Gunewardene,
Sri Lanka's celebrity fashion and style entrepreneur with the launch of
`Otone', a personalised fitness training facility.
A section of the Otone
Located at Odel's landmark Alexandra Place outlet, the new facility
which opened on March 6, is designed to cater to the individual needs of
fitness seekers of all ages, and is equipped and furnished to provide
personal fitness training including aerobics, cardio kick boxing,
massage, boot camps and children's fitness programs.
The training programs at Otone include general fitness, weight loss,
body toning, sports conditioning, performance and corrective exercises.
Its group exercise classes include `Otone Kick out', a high calory-burning
total body conditioning workout, `Otone Boot out', a motivation group
workout using simple accessories such as cones, tyres, ladders and
obstacles and utilises one's own body weight, and `Otone Sporty Kids' to
get children out of harmful lifestyles and improve their coordination,
flexibility, speed and balance.
"Being fit and staying in shape has always been an essential part of
my life. However, I discovered that working out on my own did not give
me results. Working out with a trainer with a program tailor made for me
was what changed the shape of my body and gave me the results I wanted.
This is what I am sure many others realise as well and that is why I
have come up with this concept," says Otara Gunewardene, founder and CEO
of ODEL.
"The most important aspect of this facility is its privacy and its
personalised services, which are uncommon with other standard gyms".
"Keeping fit can be tedious and boring, but our approach will be to make
it fun and unconventional, achieving results together with physical and
mental balance", Gunewardene added.
She said that once it becomes interesting, people will not look at
fitness training as a hassle but take it as an enjoyable daily activity
which will help them to make a difference to their body shape.
To be run by Ranil Harshana, a highly qualified fitness specialist,
the new facility at ODEL which occupies, 2,100 square feet of space, can
offer performance training and general or specialised training to adults
and children. It also offers group or individual training, covering
eight year old children to business executives, college level athletes
to Olympic athletes.
Otone uses simple yet effective functional equipment such as medicine
balls, speed ladders, tyres, punching and kicking bags, free weights,
power plates, speed chutes and other sports conditioning equipment, to
achieve results.
Otara Gunewardene, Founder and
CEO of ODEL opens Otone
According to Harshana, Otone will also help people with postural
problems and those needing rehabilitation after illness or accidents.
"Otone can takeover when a physiotherapist completes treatment and can
also provide customers with access to experts in sports medicine as well
as Rheumatology," he said.
Ranil Harshana who has 10 years experience in the fitness industry,
possesses a Diploma in Fitness and Nutrition from the American Council
on Exercise (ACE) and is also certified in personal training and group
fitness, fitness therapy.
He has received specialised certifications in sports conditioning,
performance enhancement and corrective exercises from the American
College of Sports Medicine (ACSM), National Academy of Sports medicine,
International Sports Science Association (USA), and Performance Training
Academy (UK).
A former fashion model and the founder and CEO of Sri Lanka's unique
department store ODEL, Otara is also the owner of `Backstage' and ' Six
Runs' brands. Backstage is a brand name encompassing a wide range of
trendy ladies jewellery and fashion accessories that has fired the
imagination of Sri Lankan women.
Six Runs is a brand for an extensive range of items including sports
and casual wear and fun accessories at value-for-money prices.

Michael Sam Says He Second Guessed "Coming Out"
Michael Sam is once again in the news as former NFL Superbowl winning coach Tony Dungy stated that he wouldn't have drafted Sam because the media attention about his sexuality would be a "distraction" to the team. Sam however, isn't letting the comments phase him.
When asked in an interview conducted by Good Morning America co-anchor Robin Roberts whether or not he should have kept quiet about his sexual orientation, Sam stated, "I was like, 'Maybe I shouldn't have done what I did.' You know?" He continued by saying, "I had so many emotions going on in my head. And I was just, I was like, 'I don't care what happens. You know, I know I did the right thing in my heart. And whatever happens, happens. I'm going to move forward."
Watch the entire interview between Roberts and Sam by clicking the picture above.

Streetcars at the Pass, Vol. 1: The Story of the Mule Cars of El Paso, the Suburban Railway to Tobin Place, and the Interurban to Ysleta
€ 10,99
Lieferbar innert 2 Wochen
November 2003
BeschreibungIn 1881, the railroads came to the dusty West Texas town of El Paso bringing drummers, lawmen, gunmen, gamblers, ladies of the evening, miners, and untold others. They did not all have horses or buggies and the town fathers soon recognized the need for a mule-powered streetcar system. This is the story of how those mule cars carried the colorful characters of El Paso around town and across the Rio Grande to Mexico. It is also the story of the spoiled town pet, Mandy the Mule, and the remarkable survival of the car Mandy pulled, No.1. The author takes extraordinary care to separate popular legend from documentable evidence.
The story of early day mass transit would not be complete without the sad tale of Tobin Place and its railroad after the turn of the century as well as the intriguing tale of the much anticipated, but little used, plush electric interurban to Ysleta.

Case Conclusion Date: 08.15.2012
Practice Area: Family
Outcome: Through a heated mediation, my client settled for his entire 401(k), primary custody of the children and him having visitation "as agreed upon by the parties".
Description: This involved a 7 year marriage, three children. The Husband was extremely emotionally and physcially abusive towards his wife and the eldest child. I represented the wife, a stay at home mom. The Husband was a executive in a major corporation and earned well over six figures each year. He held all the assets, which including a 401(k) worth approximately 100 thousand dollars. There was a marital residence, but it had a negative equity and a lot of bad memories. My client did not want it.

The 7th Plague and Beyond
September 2nd, 2009 | Published in Google Testing
By James Whittaker
Sorry I haven't followed up on this, let the excuse parade begin: A) My new book just came out and I have spent a lot of time corresponding with readers. B) I have taken on leadership of some new projects including the testing of Chrome and Chrome OS (yes you will hear more about these projects right here in the future). C) I've gotten just short of 100 emails suggesting the 7th plague and that takes time to sort through.
This is clearly one plague-ridden industry (and, no, I am not talking about my book!)
I've thrown out many of them that deal with a specific organization or person who just doesn't take testing seriously enough. Things like the Plague of Apathy (suggested exactly 17 times!) just doesn't fit. This isn't an industry plague, it's a personal/group plague. If you don't care about quality, please do us all a favor and get out of the software business. Go screw someone else's industry up, we have enough organic problems we have to deal with. I also didn't put down the Plague of the Deluded Developer (suggested by various names 22 times) because it dealt with developers that as a Googler I no longer have to deal with ... those who think they never write bugs. Our developers know better and if I find out exactly where they purchased that clue I will forward the link.
Here's some of the best. As many of them have multiple suggesters I have credited the persons who were either first or gave the most thoughtful analysis. Feel free, if you are one of these people, to give further details or clarifications in the comments of this post as I am sure these summaries do not do them justice.
The Plague of Metrics (Nicole Klein, Curtis Pettit plus 18 others): Metrics change behavior and once a tester knows how the measurement works, they test to make themselves look good or say what they want it to say ignoring other more important factors. The metric becomes the goal instead of measuring progress. The distaste for metrics in many of these emails was palpable!
The Plague of Semantics (Chris LeMesurier plus 3 others): We misuse and overuse terms and people like to assign their own meaning to certain terms. It means that designs and specs are often misunderstood or misinterpreted. This was also called the plague of assumptions by other contributors.
The Plague of Infinity (Jarod Salamond, Radislav Vasilev and 14 others): The testing problem is so huge it's overwhelming. We spend so much time trying to justify our coverage and explain what we are and are not testing that it takes away from our focus on testing. Every time we take a look at the testing problem we see new risks and new things that need our attention. It randomizes us and stalls our progress. This was also called the plague of endlessness and exhaustion.
The Plague of Miscommunication (Scott White and 2 others): The language of creation (development) and the language of destruction (testing) are different. Testers write a bug report and the devs don't understand it and cycles have to be spent explaining and reexplaining. A related plague is the lack of communication that causes testers to redo work and tread over the same paths as unit tests, integration tests and even the tests that other testers on the team are performing. This was also called the plague of language (meaning lack of a common one).
The Plague of Rigidness (Roussi Roussev, Steven Woody, Michele Smith and 5 others): Sticking to the plan/process/procedure no matter what. Test strategy cannot be bottled in such a manner yet process heavy teams often ignore creativity for the sake of process. We stick with the same stale testing ideas product after product, release after release. This was also called the plague of complacency. Roussi suggested a novel twist calling this the success plague where complacency is brought about through success of the product. How can we be wrong when our software was so successful in the market?
And I have my own 7th Plague that I'll save for the next post. Unless anyone would like to write it for me? It's called the Plague of Entropy. A free book to the person who nails it.

The Miami Dolphins either don't want Reggie Bush or have a strange way of showing their interest. While the Dolphins size up free agency, and continue with the idea Lamar Miller is their running back of the future, Bush waits. According to the Palm Beach Post, Bush is befuddled by the lack of interest in him by the Dolphins. His best two seasons have come as a Dolphin, topping the 1,000 yard mark in 2011, and barely missing it by 14 yards in 2012. Bush has played in 31 of 32 games the past two seasons, and answered questions about his durability, carrying the ball over 400 times in the same span. Still, Bush hangs in the balance; waiting for the Dolphins to make an offer that seems isn't coming anytime soon. The Palm Beach Post writes: 'A source close to Reggie Bush said this week that Bush still badly wants to return to Miami, and his camp is confused as to why the Dolphins haven't even made an offer yet. The Dolphins expect big things out of Lamar Miller in his second year next season, and it's possible that even if Bush does return, he would have a limited role in the offense. But Bush, who was in Beijing last week as part of an NFL China initiative, has been essentially campaigning to return on his Twitter feed, particularly given a recent report that he is unlikely to be brought back.' var switchTo5x=true; stLight.options({publisher:''});

A standard morning/afternoon tea (or "fika") in Sweden usually includes some kind of delicious cinnamon roll or cardamom bun or vanilla sugar custard bun-ball thing or some such yumness, often homemade.

It really was too hot to do anything else so we headed back to the digs and I am currently sat in the garden with a coffee. Off out tonight to a local hostelry for a beer (only £4 a pint) and some food. All in all a quiet day. Another big riding day tomorrow I believe so early night for me later Catch you all ...

Crop And Save
Bright Road (1953)
Great Movie
I just seen this movie and although this can not compare to the dynamic duo performance of Dorothy Dandridge and Harry Belafonte performance in Carmen Jones, this was indeed a great family film with a powerful message. What is most important is that this movie showcases black actor and actress that are educated and didn't talk with nonsense like actors Stephen Fitchit and the ignorant Amos and Andy and Beulah Show. Dorothy and Harry really stood out in this movie, but we all know what she is remembered for.This movie dealt with real situations, even though it seems a little watered down at times , this movie is truly special and should receive a lot more recognition.This movie should be on everyone's to watch list.
Catwoman (2004)
Halle is not as bad as you think.........
Really, Halle Berry is not as bad as people think. Compared to movies like Spiderman and X-men, no of course not, Catwoman would not be on that list. But, compared to horrible comic book films like Daredevil and The Hulk, Catwoman is OK. The many behind the scenes specials that was aired to promote the movie, you see that Halle is doing most of her own stunts in this film.In the film, it is put together very well with over the top CGI effect so Halle did have the whole Eartha Kitt/Michelle Pfeiffer vibe, if not better because Michelle nor Eartha did their own stunts, sorry, but they were just pretty faces but great actors.Batman Returns is the only good movie coming out of the Batman series.So Michelle is one of the best infamous catwomans. So Halle becoming a fighting machine is applauded.
The CGI effect could have been a lot less in the film and Sharon Stone performance in this film is overrated, but not as bad as Demi Moore's comeback.(Sharon Stone is trying to make a comeback right?) Benjamin Bratt is a great leading man, but we all know a leading man, or what Hollywood like to call it "love interest" ,had to be in the film.Superheroes are best defined by the qualities of the villains they must overcome. Some action sequences are really good, then some are mediocre, and then some are just plain boring.
Halle one liners are hilarious and of course she is great to look at. She did an "ok" performance in this movie and the many people that was in the private screening, it was too many people in there I might add and there were even more outside trying to get in, seem to enjoyed it. This movie is not to be taken that seriously, compared to Spiderman and X-men, it is not on its level. Even though Spiderman and Catwoman, both had overrated CGI effects, like the poorly I, Robot,please skip that movie, not worth your money, its an enjoyable movie with likable and non-likable characters with added great performances from Frances Conroy, Lambert Wilson and even the animated Alex Borstein.I also might add it is not as terrible as Batman& Robin, Daredevil, or The Hulk!!!!!!! 7/10

Israeli novelist-travel writer Yuval Ben-Ami weighs in at the +972 blog with a clever take on the snowballing Israeli economic Israel protest:
Our situation as Israelis is currently comparable to that of the customer in Monty Python's sketch, who walks into a cheese shop intent on buying cheese, only to discover that the shop is utterly bereft of cheese. The shopkeeper does not reveal this upfront, but instead lets his customer go through an endless list of cheeses.In a similar manner, protesters in Israel's newly sprung tent cities and weekly-held rallies list the types of future they demand: a future for our hospitals, a future for our schools, even a future for our milk industry (no pun intended: Today saw a huge rally of dairy farmers in Tel Aviv. They protested Netanyahu's decision to open the milk and cheese market to imports as a response to public outcry about overpriced cottage cheese).… What are we to do? I naturally do not subscribe to John Cleese's choice of assassinating the shopkeeper, but this future shop's management should definitely be sacked and a boycott on their nonexistent Gruyere is a good place to start.
I'm not sure Ben-Ami isn't reading more into the tent camps' potential for future impact than the reality on the streets can support, but his whimsical approach is a good window into their zeitgeist. Here's the Python original:

Lady Bug is one of my granddaughter's favorite. She was simply elated with her present. Washed in warm to cold water the colors remain the same after many washes.Read More
Bought the FULL size for a baby room. The colors are exact. The comforter is thick and warm, but doesn't weight a lot. The material is soft, a sateen feel. The lady bug stuffed toy is so cute and heavy (doesn't look or feel cheap). Since this set does not come with a bed skirt we found an inexpensive one that matches the smokey blue one in the picture from *** for under ***. The complete set and bed skirt looks fantastic together - just like the picture! My other daughter liked how it looked so much we have purchased a second comforter (and bed skirt). Must say, this was a good price - other stores price ranges from *** for the full size set (not including s/h). This was good find and great quality!Read More

I got an email the other day from a friend who was having some trouble getting the WPF TreeView to do what he wanted to do. He had a master-detail relationship between Doctors and Patients, and wanted to add some additional information about each Doctor and Patient to he TreeView via the Expander control. He was having problems getting these thee parts implemented, so I'd said I would help him out and take a look. I'm documenting what I found here not only for him, but also for me (grin) as well as anyone else that encounters problems like these and wants to find a quick solution in the community.
Luckily for us, the first part – implementing the hierarchical data binding – was relatively straight forward. The WPF TreeView component natively supports hierarchical data sources, such as our collection of Doctor objects that each had a collection of Patient objects. This 2-level object hierarchy fits well into the typical tree control scenario. To implement our binding, all you need to do is specify a HierarchicalDataTemplate for the TreeViewItems that have children, and a regluar old DataTemplate for those that do not.
<!–Patient Content Template–>
<DataTemplate x:Key="PatientTemplate">
<Border BorderBrush="AliceBlue" BorderThickness="1″ CornerRadius="10″
Background="{StaticResource TreeViewItemBackground}" >
<Expander HeaderTemplate="{DynamicResource PatientHeaderTemplate}"
Header="{Binding}" IsTabStop="False" HorizontalAlignment="Left"
IsEnabled="True" ExpandDirection="Down">
<Grid Margin="5,5,5,5″>
<ColumnDefinition />
<ColumnDefinition />
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=GestationalAge}"
Grid.Column="0″ Grid.Row="0″ />
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=BirthDate.Year}"
Grid.Column="1″ Grid.Row="0″ />
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=BirthHeadCircumference}"
Grid.Column="0″ Grid.Row="1″ />
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=BirthLength}"
Grid.Column="1″ Grid.Row="1″ />
</DataTemplate> <!– Doctor Content Template –>
<HierarchicalDataTemplate x:Key="DoctorTemplate"
ItemsSource="{Binding Patients}"
ItemTemplate="{StaticResource PatientTemplate}">
<Border x:Name="DoctorTemplateBorder" BorderBrush="AliceBlue"
BorderThickness="1″ CornerRadius="10″
Background="{StaticResource TreeViewItemBackground}" >
<Expander x:Name="DoctorTemplateExpander"
HeaderTemplate="{DynamicResource DoctorHeaderTemplate}"
Header="{Binding}" IsTabStop="False"
HorizontalAlignment="Left" IsEnabled="True"
<Grid Margin="5,5,5,5″>
<TextBlock Grid.Row="0″ Text="{Binding Path=FullName}" />
<TextBlock Grid.Row="1″ Text="This is a doctor" />
And of course the TreeView markup
<TreeView Name="_myTreeView"
ItemTemplate="{StaticResource DoctorTemplate}"
In this example, the HierarchicalDataTemplate gets its source data from the default binding context (which happens to be a simple collection of Doctor objects). For its children, HierarchicalDataTemplate defines an ItemsSource attribute that specifies which property on the associated Doctor object has the collection of (in this case) Patient objects. When the TreeView's DataContext property is set, the binding magic takes over and the tree fills up. Once we add in the WPF expander controls with a gradient background we've got a nice looking tree:
Great! The Doctor and Patient objects get filled in as expected.
Now, for part two – ensuring that that when a note was expanded in the TreeView, that item was also selected (highlighted). At first, I looked at the TreeView item to find an ItemExpanded event, or something similar, but there was none. As it turns out, I forgot that what was actually getting expanded was a TreeViewItem – not the TreeView itself, and found TreeViewItem.Expanded just as I should have figured. Once I figured this out, wiring up the selection of the expanded TreeViewItem was pretty simple:
TreeViewItem _item = e.OriginalSource as TreeViewItem;
_item.IsSelected = true;
Lastly, I need to identify how to automatically expand the Doctor item when its corresponding tree node was expanded. After trying everything I could think of, and searching for a while online, I finally found this article that pointed to a sample generic method that recurses through the visual tree to find an object of the requested type. It's not foolproof for every situation (what if I had multiple Expanders in that TreeViewItem?) but it works for this purpose. Just for fun, I turned this into an Extension Method that will add this method to every DependencyObject just in case I need it somewhere else:
Here's the generic Extension method I tied to DependencyObject:
public static childItem FindVisualChild<childItem>(this DependencyObject obj) where childItem : DependencyObject
for (int i = 0; i < VisualTreeHelper.GetChildrenCount(obj); i++)
DependencyObject child = VisualTreeHelper.GetChild(obj, i);
if (child != null && child is childItem)
return (childItem)child;
childItem childOfChild = FindVisualChild<childItem>(child);
if (childOfChild != null)
return childOfChild;
return null;
And here's how you call it:
Expander _expander = _item.FindVisualChild<Expander>();
_expander.IsExpanded = true;
With this code wired into the TreeView object's Expanded event handler, the expand/collapse behavior was complete and working as I'd hoped, and I've completed all of the tasks my friend asked me to look at.

ANSWER: What the Bible says about the military and whether a Christian is allowed to join or not are very serious matters that deserve a lengthy discussion. Unfortunately, space does not allow for an in-depth study of this topic in relation to a believer. The below brief arguments made by two of the site's Email Evangelists, one against and one for serving in the military, are offered to encourage a deeper study of the subject.
Arguments against serving
The basic, most relevant Bible text related to the subject of the military comes from the Sermon on the Mount by Jesus. The whole passage will not be quoted here since it is so very familiar to most people (Matthew 5:39, 44 - 45). These verses are Jesus' instructions to "turn the other cheek" and not resist evil. He tells us to love your enemies and even BLESS those who act against us.
Can Christians evade the literal application of these Bible verses? The founder of the Quakers, George Fox, realized that people could not. It is easy to see it as impractical, and impossible to implement, since other nations would seek to attack us - such as the Nazis and communists in the past. The literal application of these verses concerning the military could also be applied to joining a police force. Romans 13 tells us that God uses unbelievers to maintain law and order.
Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. (Romans 13:1)
These verses, however, do not authorize Christians to join groups that defend a country or even the police. It is a point of faith, but people who believe in God's ways can count on protection from him. Such protection would also applies to nations. In three or four cases, ancient Israel let God wage war for them instead of going into battle.
Can someone who follows Jesus, who is the Prince of Peace, wage war? Can we kill our enemies, yet still say we love them, especially when they would say they do not want to die? That is a straightforward application of the Golden Rule (Matthew 7:12) found in the Bible.
There is the insight that A. A. Milne (creator of Winnie-the-Pooh) had in favor of pacifism, or at least avoiding participation in war. His reasoning was why should we be willing to kill total strangers we meet on the battlefield when other strangers, our political rulers, say we should go and kill them? Could Christians go out and kill other Christians, their brothers in Christ, even members of the same church, merely because (often) unbelievers with power say they should do so?
Jesus, when he went on trial before Pilate, said He was a king but that, "My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would fight . . . " (John 18:36).
Here Jesus denied that His followers should fight for Him against others. Furthermore, if Jesus' kingdom is not derived from this world, which is the main meaning of the Greek, then Christians should not tie themselves to this world's affairs so closely, such as become part of the military. Our citizenship is in heaven, not here on the earth (Philippians 2:20). We should place our priority on the next life, not the present one.
Arguments for serving
In regard to a Christian being allowed to join the military please consider Numbers 1 in the Bible.
Take a census of all the congregation of the children of Israel . . . every male individually, from twenty years old and above - all who are able to go to war in Israel. (Numbers 1:2 - 3, NKJV)
Throughout the Old Testament, it is clear that the men over the age of 20 of the children of Israel were trained to fight. This occurred when the nation of Israel was governing itself by the laws set down by God. In Israel, there was only a small "standing" army most of the time. A call could go out, however, and thousands of fighting men could be gathered to do battle quite rapidly (for the time).
It is true that there is no specific commandment stating one should fight for his country. However, the Apostle Paul wrote to Timothy that if a believer does not feed, clothe, etc. (provide the basics) for his family, he is not only not acting like a Christian but he is behaving even WORSE than those who believe in God and Jesus (1Timothy 5:8)!
The implication of what this Bible verse says is clear. Providing for his own would include not only the necessities of life - such as food, clothing, shelter, and training - but also providing for their safety. This would mean protecting one's family from harm, and - by interpolation - protecting one's community, state, and nation through either the military or the police.

On Saturday morning, a group of 25 people entered the terrain of gasoline trader Vitol in the Amsterdam harbour, forcing a suspension of all activities on the terrain. Their message: Stop the export of toxic gasoline to West-Africa and end the era of fossil fuels.

2 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons orange juice
1 tablespoon minced ginger
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon canola oil, divided
4 scallions, thinly sliced
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 cup broccoli florets
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
2 cups cooked brown rice or Minute Whole-Grain brown rice
In a big bowl, whisk together garlic, soy sauce, orange juice and ginger. Add the chicken and toss it around enough to coat it. Then stick it in the fridge for 15 minutes. Heat your large skillet or wok over medium heat. Put the oil in that spray bottle and spritz the skillet twice. Throw in scallions, peppers, broccoli and 1 tbsp water. Stir-fry them until tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Dump them in a new bowl. Give the skillet 2 more spritzes of oil. Add the chicken, but hold on to the marinade. Cook 4 minutes and stir, stir, stir. Add the veggies, marinade and sesame seeds. Stir-fry it all for 2 minutes. Pile everything on rice in a pretty bowl.

The Knife-Throwing Philosopher
A slight figure, dressed head to toe in an assortment of colors, beads, and bells, walks onto the stage. Although to call it walking is hardly fair, would just as soon call Romeo and Juliet "friends" or WW2 a "misunderstanding" Perhaps, yes, this slight figure danced onto the stage.
The audience stares at the tiny woman now swaying to the music on the stage.
"That's a beautiful song Gwen, do you mind if I call you Gwen? G2 is just... it's not as well, it's not as pretty you see. I hope you don't mind."
Gwen smiles and continues to play.
The air around the woman seemed to ripple and as it wavered the scene behind her changed. A forest, green and eerie as the light filtered down from the ancient canopy.
"Hey you, no one invited the freakshow!" A rude voice called from the back.
She smiled a most wicked smile and pulled a knife from the folds of her skirt. The audience held their collective breath as she threw it, waiting for the inevitable scream. The quiet thud into the wood was rewarded with the sound of hundreds of people relaxing just slightly.
"Now that was hardly called for. No one invited me, I simply put one foot infront of the other, and here I am. I suppose I had best introduce myself." The air shimmered and was replaced with a beach under a rising sun, a single set of footprints marred the settled sand.
"Once I have given you my name I can hardly take it back, I shall exist."
The voices in the audience were hushed, every now and then a comment floated to the stage.
"Seriously, who invited her?" "Enough already!" "This is very strange."
"Existing is a wonderful thing," she continued, appearing to be amused by the confusion she was causing.
"When one exists one can do all sorts of things!" Again the air around her wavered and became instead a silent mountain. "Although, there comes with existing all sorts of problems. All kinds of responsibilities."
"Spare the talk about responsibilities," came a clearer voice. The woman turned and looked into the darkness that was the wing of the stage. A figure stood there, tapping their foot, clearly impatient for their turn.
"Oh hush, it's not as though you could introduce yourself just this second anyways. I'll only be a minute.
"Now then, we who exist, we are responsible to exist. It is a precious thing, and wary be the man who would waste an existance. For my part, I shall try, as best I may, to exist beyond this present existance. And how, you may ask, shall I accomplish this? Well that's easy, the same way you are!"
The figure in the wings cleared their throat and shuffled a little.
"See now? There you are, so eager to exist forever! Very well, I shall let you. But first, I shall exist myself.
"I am Asheyna."

Des chinoises: the Chinese team celebrates its 3-2 win over Denmark in the women's world cup. Photograph: Andy Wong/AP.
So, the women's football World Cup enters its third day in China. England, unbeaten in the qualifiers, drew with Japan yesterday. I feel very ashamed, but I didn't know it was happening.
It is not that there isn't any coverage. The BBC are showing all England's games live on BBC2. You can watch the matches online and listen to commentary on 5 Live. There are highlights late in the evening and some group games are also being shown online. That is more terrestrial coverage than many events, men's or women's, get.
And yet, where is the fanfare? A World Cup, held by the hosts of next year's Olympics, with many of the protagonists facing prejudice, with England qualifying for the first time in 12 years, and the English league in crisis - it's a great story.
The BBC is potty. It's been whistling quietly and delivering the stuff as if processing junk mail. Where are the slow-mo pictures of clenched fists, muscle-hewn legs and operatic emotion? Come on, people, you don't even need Gaza's fake boobs to get the party going.
But at least they are covering it. Newspaper readers would be hard pressed to find glossy supplements, sticker albums or even fixture lists. You have to search pretty intensely to find coverage on the Guardian's football website - surely, one of the first places a vaguely interested fan would search?
Of course, there is a lot of competition for people's attention - the Premier League, the Twenty20 party in South Africa, pie-eared thugs getting out of hand at the Rugby World Cup. And, of course, the endless, frankly tiresome debate on the relative skill, strength and speed levels of men's versus women's football, are distracting. But people like a bit of something different if they know about it. If women's curling can capture the nation's attention, then surely women's football has a chance?
Like it or not, women and girls enjoy and play football - it is the biggest female sport in the country. Even if 50% of your audience were going to guffaw loudly and turn over at the very mention of the competition, there is a vast amount of potential interest out there. And England play Germany on Friday...

More informationThe type of music that started as a subgenre of trance and is still considered so by many people. Trance fans usually call is happy hardcore. However nightcore fans prefer to not be associated with trance and don't like the idea of naming a "nightcore" as anything else.
Nightcore is characterized by a sped-up melody (sometimes), fast rhythmic beat (usually), and ALWAYS higher than normal pitch. Almost all nightcore music are original songs nightcored (remixed into nightcore) by nightcore fans.

One of the most anticipated soccer events of the summer in the New York area is the All Stars for Hope Charity Match, an event to raise money for schools in impoverished parts of the world. For months now, the match was to feature a team of European-based superstars vs. the New York Red Bulls, at least that is what had been rumored.
As it turns out, the New York Red Bulls will not be taking part in the event after the club failed reach an agreement with organizers the event, scheduled for June 14th at Giants Stadium.
The all-star match, which is set to include such world stars as Cristiano Ronaldo, Thierry Henry, Didier Drogba and Frank Lampard is rumored to now include an unidentified South American club. No other details yet are available on the new opponent for the all-star team.
The Red Bulls released this statement from managing director Erik Stover on Tuesday:
You may or may not have heard about an All Stars for Hope (ASFH) match being played at Giants Stadium and I want to confirm that the Red Bulls will not be playing the ASFH team on June 14. This is a wonderful charity that we hope you will support, but we simply could not work out all of the details for our participation. We were happy to contribute to the cause, but we could not agree with some of the conditions for our participation. Most importantly, we were not granted permission for our Red Bulls Members to receive match tickets as part of our season package. We respect the business model of the ASFH organizers, but we simply could not break our promise to you, our most valued customers.
We remain committed to assisting Mikael Silvestre and ASFH as we believe this charity is really making a difference for underprivileged youth throughout the world. You can do the same by making a donation or purchasing tickets for All Stars for Hope.
Proceeds from the charity event will go toward Mikael Silvestre's School for Hope, an organization that helps build, maintain and staff schools in impoverished parts of the world.
For more information on the match, you can go to the All Stars for Hope website.
just got the email. lame.
At the risk of being 'controversial', I trust every move Stover has made so far.
So, its unfortunate, but I'm going to take him at his word (as far as reasoning).
I doubt he's lying, in which case RBNY really can't be blamed.
Having said that…to put it rather simply, this effing sucks.
Dannyc58 – I agree. It does sound a little dubious though. I'll probably spend $20 bucks to go, anyway.
i highly doubt it'll be just 20 bucks. even if they fill the nosebleeds, those seats will probably be in the 40-50 dollar range.
who's gonna play the team now, or are they gonna split into 2 and play all stars #1 v all stars #2?
just remember everyone, don't buy your tickets on ebay. a $100 ticket could go for well over $300, and that extra will go to the seller's pocket, not the charity.
it really seems like RBNY made the decision for the benefit of their fans and for the players. It sucks tremendously, but there appears to be logic in the decision.
Justin O
For the "benefit of their fans" – as in including the tickets in season ticket packages so they wouldn't have to donate to a charitable cause like everyone else in attendance?
Or am I misunderstanding?
[The all-star match, which is set to include such world stars as Cristiano Ronaldo, Thierry Henry, Didier Drogba and Frank Lampard]
You actually think that Giants Stadium seats will be in the 40-50 dollar range despite it being a charity event. They know people will pay to see these players
Charlie N.
The charity web site says the all stars sre to play a team of "celebs" from the entertainment & sports industries. As I see it thats the all stars VS. steve Nash, Ethan Zohn, one of the Baldwins, and that Mohammed kid from you tube. At least if it was the Red Bulls the friendly would have been more of a match than an exhibition
I would have paid extra to see this game as long as the season tickets holders had first dibs on the tickets
I don't know if any season tickets holders was asked what they thought (or was willing to spend) but they should have been
Too bad they can't put the MLS All-Stars against the ASFH All-Star team. That truly would have been a game for the ages.
Justin O
"We respect the business model of the ASFH organizers, but we simply could not break our promise to you, our most valued customers."
What specifically was this promise, anyway?
Section 133
For those too feeble to RTFA:
CAT 1 (Side line lower level, $85-$250)
CAT 2 (Side line mid-level, and corners, $55-75)
CAT 3 (Behind the goalies, $35-55)
CAT 4 (Upper Level, $15-25)
You shouldn't trust everything Stover does. He's told half truths to ESC before. I suppose you can't expect the managing director to be fully truthful about everything, but, just saying. And I mean this in general, not specifically with regards to this charity match.
By saying $20 bucks, I could have said $40 bucks. My point was that I very well may pay the $40 bucks anyway, so the notion that it isn't fair to season tickets holders is a little wierd. Many season ticket holders will go anyway, and they would prefer to see NY play.
There is probably another very good reason, I just don't buy Stover's logic on this.
I do like his update emails though. Makes me feel wanted.
THE Nick
The guy is in a lose lose situation…if he agreed to play the match and didn't include it with season tix, then he would have been crucified….and now that the red bulls arent in the game, people are disapointed….what I would have done is allow season ticket holders the choice of paying a little donation extra for these tickets and have them included, or not….maybe a little less than whatthe seats are going for….but whatever…it is what it is
Ummmm, Gary, Ives clearly states "rumored to now include an unidentified South American Club."
As a RBNY fan, it doesn't make sense that a charitable event would be included for free for season ticket holders. I would prefer to pay for that event, especially since it is for charity. Something seems fishy to me.
metrostar 4 life
why cant RBNY play in this game? that's not fair.
"as in including the tickets in season ticket packages so they wouldn't have to donate to a charitable cause like everyone else in attendance."
Keeping in mind that there are something like 5500 season ticket holders, and the seats would all be lower bowl than thusly in the $ 80 to $ 250 range, the "donation" you're talking about would be close to three quarters of a million dollars. That's quite a donation for a charity to "require", for the right to have the RBs host the game and do all of the work too, just to play against Theirry Henry for 30 minutes running at half speed.
Kudos to the charity for putting Mikael Silvestre and "all star" in the same sentence though.
Unidentified Sotuh American club… River Plate?
Scott A
Will be sweet when the team has its own stadium and has total flexibility to schedule events like this 😀
Not saying it would have made a difference but it couldn't have hurt
Nelson Mandela
Lame, RBNY, lame…A charity event of this sort is for the benefit of the charity, not the benefit of the RBNY or it's fans. Think of a better reason to back out next time.
Justin O
"THE Nick" – Surely you jest. I find it hard to believe that RBNY fans are so morally repugnant that they would have crucified someone for requiring that they donate to a charity as a condition for attending a charitable event.
NYRB model = capitalist
Bring back the MetroStars!
Marc Silverstein
How utterly bush-league, why should I ever expect anything different from this franchise? This is a charity endeavor…why should the charity lose out on funds just because they need to mollify their season ticket holders? Simply ridic

Time Traveling in the Steampunk Subway
- Thank you for the inside tip on this amazing place from Friend X.
This incredible subway station under Paris has undergone a full Steampunk conversion, thanks to the mind of François Schuiten, a comic book artist from Belgium. Each tiny circular window lining the edges is a portal to another world. This is all influenced by Les Cités Obscures, where humans live on the counter-Earth. A wonderful concept… I think many of us on Google+ already feel one with the idea of the counter-Earth.
If you'd like to visit this stop someday, pull up a huge subway map and find your connections to the Arts et Métiers stop. It's kind of out of the way, but just bring your camera and your imagination, and you'll be there soon enough...
