The basic aggressive infantry squad tactics of all nations were devised with similar ends in mind: they were solutions to the problems of how to advance by means of fire and movement, and dislodge the enemy from his position. In World War II, the German squad would play its part by winning its Feuerkampf or firefight and occupying key positions during battles, never hesitating when they launched themselves on the offensive. When moving on the battlefield, the German squad had two main formations; advancing in the "Reihe", or loose single file formation, and "Schützenkette", or skirmish line. In the "Reihe" the squad leader took the lead, followed by the machine gunner and his assistants; these were followed by the riflemen, with the assistant squad leader bringing up the rear. The Reihe was highly practical for moving along tracks, presented a small target from the front, and allowed the squad leader to take decisions, directing the squad as needed. In all instances, the men were to take advantages of terrain, keeping behind contours and cover, rushing across exposed areas when alternatives were lacking.
From the single file formation (Reihe), the squad could easily be deployed into the "Schützenkette", or skirmish line. With the machine gun deploying on the spot, the riflemen could come up to the right, left, or both sides, bringing their weapons to bear. The result was a ragged line, with the men about five paces apart, taking whatever cover was available. The advance to contact was in bounds, from one visible objective to another, with a new objective specified as soon as the leaders had reached the first. Where resistance was serious the advance became fully fledged "fire and movement", either with a whole squad taking part, or a machine gun team down and firing while others advanced. Although grenades were best thrown from behind cover, they could also be used on the move. The soldier was instructed to grasp his rifle in the left hand and the grenade in the right, using the fingers of the hand holding the rifle to pull the fuse cord at the opportune moment. In circumstances where showers of grenades where needed, the order "Handgranaten!" from the squad leader would prompt the men to throw.

Box Score | Boxscore (pdf) | Robert Morris-Duquesne Boxscore |
PITTSBURGH--Four freshmen totaled seven of Pitt's 10 total points in guiding the Panthers to a 3-0 season opening victory over Akron Friday evening at Ambrose Urbanic Field.
"I'm really proud of our team," Pitt coach Greg Miller said. "Our start was exceptional tonight. We should have scored a goal in the first minute, but we kept pressing and scored in the ninth minute. Then we scored a goal on a set piece a little bit later. I was really impressed with our team. We just kept pressing all game. We had some great minutes by many of our players off the bench."
Miller was especially pleased with his group of freshmen players. Six freshmen made their first collegiate soccer starts including Seyla Perez, Taylor Pryce, Emma Pozzulo, Shaina Ashouri, Courtney Coate and Ashley Moreira. Perez and Pryce each scored their first career goal on the evening, Moreira totaled two assists, Hanna Hannesdottir assisted on a goal and played 51 quality minutes off the bench and Malea Fabean (38 minutes) and Jo Fischer (40 minutes) each saw extensive action.
"They are doing exactly what we recruited them to do," Miller said. "I'm pleased with their early contribution. That will give them confidence moving forward. They put their stamp on the game tonight and I'm really pleased with their effort and our entire effort as a team."
The Panthers benefitted from a strong start. Pitt went up 1-0 in the game's eighth minute when junior Roosa Arvas scored on an open net shot. Arvas, who finished the night with the game-winning goal and an assist, controlled a shot from freshman Ashley Moreira that bounced off the Akron goalkeeper and back into the center of the field. Pitt then took a commanding 2-0 lead in the game's 40th minute when freshman Seyla Perez headed the ball into the net off a perfectly placed corner kick from Arvas. Arvas' ball was sent to the far post where Perez stood unguarded.
In the second half, Pitt went up 3-0 in the 48th minute when freshman Taylor Pryce received a through ball from Moreira, dribbled twice and hit a shot past Akron goalkeeper Klaire Adee into the lower left portion of the goal. Moreira received a pass from freshman Hannesdottir.
Defensively, the Panthers limited Akron to just one shot. Sophomore defender Arielle Fernandez played an outstanding 53 minutes off the bench, along with defenders Perez, Jackie Poucel and Riliegh McHugh.
Pitt outshot Akron 15-1 and finished with three corner kicks to Akron's zero. Pitt goalkeepers--Taylor Francis and Margot Shore--were never pressed into making a save. The last time Pitt scored at least three goals in a winning effort was a 3-0 win against Bucknell on August 30, 2013.
The match was part of Pitt's own Steel City Classic featuring the Panthers, Akron, Duquesne and Robert Morris. In Friday's first match of the Steel City Classic, Robert Morris scored two goals to erase a 2-1 deficit in registering a 3-2 victory over Duquesne. The teams will all play on Sunday at Ambrose Urbanic Field as Akron faces Robert Morris at 11 a.m. ET, followed by Pitt vs. Duquesne at 1:30 p.m. ET.
"Duquesne's focus is going to be on Sunday," Miller said. "They're playing an in-town rival and they're going to be up for the challenge. We've got to do our best to recover and get our minds focused on playing them Sunday and come out and play well."

The BlackBerry Passport has a 3450mAh battery inside. Considering that the company has always been able to optimize the battery on its phones, the Passport should be able to run all day, and then some. The device also offers BlackBerry Natural Sound, which had been previously available only on BBM voice calls. This feature will enhance the quality of cellular calls. Four microphones on the handset will adjust the sound to reduce ambient noise levels and also takes into consideration the distance that the phone is from your ear. The BlackBerry Passport also is equipped with loud stereo speakers.
While the unique look of the device catches your attention, the QWERTY keyboard is also a selling point. Certain gestures will allow you to place the cursor where you want it with precise control. The virtual keys that appear on the screen, are based on what you are doing with the phone. Browsing the web? You will see virtual keys for a colon and backslashes. If you're writing an email, the "@" symbol will be available to you.
With BlackBerry 10.3 expected on the phone out of the box, BlackBerry Assistant will be on the Passport, ready to assist you in the same manner that Siri, Cortana and Google Now help iOS, Windows Phone 8.1 and Android users respectively. BlackBerry has yet to officially introduce the phone. At that time, we should find out a launch date and pricing for the flagship BlackBerry that has monster written all over it.

I had a truly fun experience last week on the iced up boat ramp. I found out my 4WD isn't working.
It's a 2000 Ford Ranger XLT. The light comes on in my dash, the front drive shaft spins when in 4, but the front wheels aren't spinning.
My guess is that the hubs are shot, but I wanted some other opinions. Any idea how much a new set of MANUAL hubs are? If I switch them, I'm going to manual lockers instead of the autos.

10 Gal Dirted Betta Kingdom
Someone needs to stop me. This is my third journal today; a nano and my main tank were first and both flooded. This one is still a work in progress. I found a great piece of DW at the LFS and it fits perfectly. This is a standard 10 gallon tank with MGOPS capped with black diamond. BD has to be my new favorite substrate, especially with the price. Here is the current scape. I think I am going to add more BD along the back to form a nice slope and hold in the DW. It is pretty precarious without all the rocks to hold it in place. What do you all think?
That is one amazing piece of driftwood!
Sent from my MB865 using Tapatalk 2
It is gorgeous! Can you glue it to the rocks to make it more stable?
Or aqaurium sealant?
Also bettas are notorious for trying to squeeze into little places -- several have died trying to go through the small holes in the bottoms of teraacottoa pots.
You thus might consider closing some of the cracks with clear aquarium sealant, and possibly sand down any edges that are scratchy enough to snag pantyhose.
If it snags pantyhose it will tear fins, as I learned to my dismay in July.
But my fishy is all better now. Please learn from my mistake!
1 Attachment(s)
I don't think I will be able to glue it in a meaningful way to make it stable. I am hoping enough sand and rocks around the base will do it. I know I need to clean up a lot of the edges and I am planting many of the crevices with java fern. I hope it will be enough. He has quite the set of fins and flares at everything.

Beautiful Betta!
Love the DW:)
He is feisty and lovely!
I call our red male Sriracha, red, and hot tempered and imported from Thailand!
great piece of driftwood! And what a stunning boy!
Wow. My betta would love to be in that tank. Great "homey" DW u got there!
awesome tank I am setting up a very similar one. I love that dw. Also what light are you using? Flora u plan on stocking?
For now I am going to be using the led lighting that came with the tank. I am assuming it is going to be low to very low light so I am going to stick with all low light plants. Java fern/moss, a weeping moss wall, lots of crypts and bacopa. All should grow slow enough to keep this a low maintenance tank.
I would only use that driftwood for shrimp......
Unless you make some small modifications.
Like SpecG mentioned Bettas are very inquisitive, at least the ones I've owned.
Other than that, all the elements look great.
Sorry to hear about the other tanks you lost from the flood.
Nice setup and beautiful betta
LOL, the tanks being flooded just meant that I filled them with water while in the middle of scaping. We weren't actually flooded, thank god. Going back and reading what i wrote, it completely sounds like there was a flood. This is the first tank where I am taking some time to get it right before the water goes in and i start the cycle.
Oh good! No tragedy just planning!

Zhuang Sweeps World Youth Qualifier
Monday April 4, 2011
Dark horse candidate Vincent Zhuang 5d pulled off a surprise victory in the World Youth Go Qualifier this past weekend on KGS. Zhuang, who is 14, only narrowly made it to the finals at all. A last -minute change in the age requirements by the Ing Foundation disqualified two older players with better records, allowing only kids under 16 next August to compete. Interestingly, the AGHS Young Lions Tourney in November of last year foreshadowed this result, with Zhuang beating two of the same finalists who would compete in this year's WYGC qualifier. On Saturday, April 2, Zhuang got off to a great start by defeating Hugh Zhang 7d, who was the top seed in the four player double elimination finals. Next he took down Andrew Lu 6d, eking out a 1.5 point win in a complicated fighting game. Round 3 saw Lu knocking out Zhang, and set the stage for the finals the following day. With everything on the line, Zhuang and Lu went at it Sunday morning. They played at a break-neck pace, despite having an hour each, with neither willing to give an inch as the game exploded into heavy fighting again. Zhuang carved out large territories on the right and left sides, and sacrificed a center group, to pull ahead and win the game. His victory will carry him all the way to Romania, where he will represent the US in the WYGC. In the Junior Division (under 12) nine-year-old Jeremy Chiu 1k upset some apple carts in his own right, knocking out Sammy Zhang 2d, and setting the stage for a showdown with 8-year-old Aaron Ye 3d, who is undefeated in the event. As both players live in the Bay Area, their final matches will be played in person, at the BAGPA ratings tourney on Saturday the 9th. - Paul Barchilon, EJ Youth Editor.
Japan Disaster Relief Update (updated 4/3)
Sunday April 3, 2011
(updated with details on the 4/23 NYC tourney and a PayPal account for the Kansai Kiin) "Many go players and clubs have asked where they could send money for disaster relief in Japan," reports American Go Association President Allan Abramson. "For example, New York City go organizer Boris Bernadsky and other New York players are planning an April 23 Tsunami Relief Tournament to raise funds for relief, and next week's NOVA Cherry Blossom tournament also will be dedicated to disaster relief."
"For direct donations, here is what I have learned so far," Abramson tells the E-Journal:
The Kansai Kiin has a disaster relief fund. Bank name: The Bank of Tokyo Mitsubishi UFJ, Kawaramachi Branch (Branch Code:003); Account No.: Ordinary Account 311018, Account Name: Kansaikiin. You can also now donate via PayPal: firstname.lastname@example.com
Pandanet also has a disaster relief fund: Bank: Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation; Branch: Marunouchi Branch (Branch Code: 245); Account Number: 1441312; Swift Code: SMBC JP JT
The Nippon Foundation has two ways to contribute: through the Sasakawa Peace Foundation (http://www.spfusa.org/care.htm) or directly through the Nippon Foundation. It may be necessary to have routing/Swift numbers for the two banks, and these have been requested for U.S. donations and will be posted as soon as they're available.
Mexican Youth Sponsor Contest
Sunday April 3, 2011
Mexico is hard at work on developing a serious go community among kids, an effort led by Siddhartha Avila, a teacher at Pipiolo Art School in Mexico City. "Last December we organized an open tournament for children, and 37 kids participated from 4 different schools, " reports Avila, " those 37 kids are 90% of the youth go players for the whole country." Avila's group, Comunidad Mexicana de Go Infantil y Juvenil, are sponsoring an international art contest for kids to help boost the community. More information, including an application, can be found here. Go among kids is "growing faster than with adults, where the national tournaments haven't had more than 40 players ever," said Avila. "It's ok to promote go among adults, but I seriously believe that the key for go development at this moment is working with children and taking it to a national level." The Mexican kids are playing internationally too, having entered three teams in the recently-concluded AGHS School Team Tourney, and even scoring a bronze medal in the intermediate division. Avila's students have become regulars at the monthly Tiger's Mouth tournaments as well, which are sponsored by the AGF.

Lee Sedol, Park Junghwan, Heo Yeongho & Gu Li Make BC Card Cup Semifinals
Sunday April 3, 2011
The quarterfinals of the 3rd BC Card Cup concluded on April 3 with Gu Li 9P defeating Kim Jiseok 8P. In other quarterfinal results, Park Junghwan 8P defeated Zhou Ruiyang 5P, Lee Sedol 9P defeated Chen Yaoye 9P and Heo Yeongho 8P defeated Zhong Wenjing 5P, leaving Gu as the only Chinese player in the semi finals, facing off against three Korean players.
In the semifinals, Lee will play Park and Heo will play Gu, setting up a possible Lee versus Gu final.
An interview with Lee Sedol
Below is an excerpt from a television interview with Lee after his quarterfinal win against Chen.
"This was a very intense game. Did you prepare for it?"
"No special preparation but I did want to dictate the direction of play to avoid too much fighting in the opening. While I did manage to avoid too much fighting in the opening, I wasn't too pleased with my play today. My opening was not very good."
"And the ko in the lower part of the board?"
"At the time I thought the ko would be very difficult under normal circumstances. However, even after I won the ko, the situation did not improve much for me."
"I heard you and your family have taken up hiking?"
"Yes, we have been before. Now that spring has come, I'm looking forward to hiking more often with my family."
"You will play Park Junghwan 9P next in the semi final. Is Park your preferred opponent?"
"Definitely not. Park is a very good player, very difficult to beat. It will be a very tough game. But, if I prepare well, I believe I can win."

Michael Redmond 9P Reports from Japan
Monday March 28, 2011
"It is fortunate that Japanese people seem not to be inclined to show their stress and frustration in violent acts," reports Michael Redmond 9P — who's just been confirmed as a participating professional in this year's U.S. Go Congress — from his home in Japan outside Tokyo. "Instead people did hit the stores with heavy shopping, stockpiling basic foods such as rice, milk, bottled water, etc. Most of these are back in the stores now, but water is still difficult to get.
"After the quake there was a local gas shortage including the Kanto (Tokyo) area as well as the earthquake-damaged northeast. In the damaged areas the problem was compounded by difficulty in the logistics of getting it there. Since the victims in the disaster area need fuel to keep warm and to evacuate they will be helped first, and we will be waiting a bit longer for the gasoline to arrive. Apart from the logistics, the gas shortage is caused by the fact that some important gas depots/refineries were hit by the tsunamis that attacked the whole Pacific coast. The earthquake damage was not so bad actually, but the tsunami was off the expected scale and nothing could stop it. Gas stations in my area, which have been closed since the earthquake hit, re-opened last Sunday. They apparently are getting gas and other necessities to the disaster areas now also.
"Since the nuclear energy plant has shut down, there's obviously also a shortage of electric energy in northern Japan, not including Hokkaido, and we are subjected to scheduled power cutoffs. I'm not sure how far south this goes, but it's at least as far as
Tokyo. The main inconvenience caused by the power cutoffs is that the trains are limited, in my case making travel to Tokyo less easy than usual.
"As to the go scene, people didn't know about the power cutoffs or that the trains would slow down until March 14, so there were games as scheduled on that day, and some players didn't manage to arrive in time and lost by forfeit. They postponed the March 17 games in Tokyo. Games were played on schedule on 3/24 and after, though some events have been postponed. Supposedly things will return close to normal next month."

Park Jieun and team Korea win 9th Jeongganjang Cup
Monday March 28, 2011
The 9th Jeongganjang Cup ended today with a final showdown between Rui Naiwei 9P (playing for China) and Park Jieun 9P of Korea.
Rui resigned after 160 moves, but not before plenty of middle game excitement. With this, the Korean women's baduk team have won their fourth Jeongganjang Cup. Last week Rui stood alone against four Korean opponents and managed to fight her way to Park in a three game streak. Unfortunately for Rui she fell just short of making it four wins (in four days) and taking the Cup back for China.
A special mention needs to go to Moon Dowon 2P, who set a new record by winning seven consecutive matches in stage one of this tournament. Moon single handedly eliminated most of the Japanese and Chinese teams, setting things up nicely for Korea.
The whole story: 9th Jeongganjang Cup
There's been quite a lot written by the Go blogging community about this particular tournament. Here is An Younggil's commentary of the 9th Jeongganjang Cup final (this game). And here are some of Go Game Guru's other articles about the 9th Jeongganjang Cup.

BELGIANS LAUNCH "GO4JAPAN": A go club in Belgium has "switched our upcoming tournament to a support rally for the people of Japan" in the wake of the recent earthquake/tsunami, reports local organizer Joost Vannieuwenhuyse. "Already countries like Germany, Spain and Czechia are thinking about, or planning to host similar events," Vannieuwenhuyse tells the E-Journal. Hoping to make this "a global initiative in the go-playing community," the Belgium club has launched a Facebook page under the name "GO4 Japan" where others who want to organize their own local events can communicate and coordinate efforts. "Our club, as well as the organization of the Basel tournament in Switzerland will be giving all the registration fees from our tournament to the Japanese Red Cross Society,"adds Vannieuwenhuyse, suggesting that "It would be nice to also see some events there that take place in the US." "I hope this way we, as go-players, can give back some support, no matter how big or small, to a country that meant and still means so much for this hobby, passion, life of ours. And to offer at least some relief to the people who are suffering from this ongoing disaster."
ISRAEL HOSTS JAPAN SUPPORT TOURNEY ON MARCH 30: : An "Identifying day with Japan" has been organized for Wednesday, March 30th in Rosh HaAyin, Israel. The home of both current and previous Israeli go champions, Rosh HaAyin's mayor joined the effort "with enthusiasm," reports Shavit Fragman, President of the Mind chain of go clubs in Israel. Money collected at tournament will be delivered to the Japanese embassy, and the event will also include a Tree of Wishes, origami crane folding — in Japan, it's commonly said that folding 1000 paper origami cranes makes a wish come true — and lectures about Japanese culture and the recent disasters in that country.
UK YOUTH EVENT RAISES £150 FOR JAPAN RELIEF: At the just-concluded Youth Championships in Oxfordshire, England, £150 — the result of a collection, together with the proceeds from the event– was sent to the Red Cross Japan Tsunami Appeal.
YOUR MOVE: Where's the WAGC?
Monday March 21, 2011
"When and where will the next WAGC be held?" wonders Joel Sanet. The 2011 World Amateur Go Championships (WAGC) are scheduled to be held May 27 through June 1 in Matsue City in Japan's Shimane Prefecture. At press-time we don't have any post-quake updates on the status of plans for the tournament; we'll keep you posted as we learn more. Eric Lui 7d will be the U.S. rep at the WAGC, where 70 amateur players from 70 countries and territories compete, and which will be covered in the E-Journal again this year with daily reports, photos and game records.

How do your teach kids to be kind? Like everything else, make it a game! I teamed up with Netflix and designed this Kindness Punch Box. How does it work? Have you child punch through each tissue-papered hole on your Punch Box to pull out various acts of kindness suggestions for a Random Acts of Kindness Challenge.
Here are some random acts of kindness ideas to challenge your family:
- Smile at everyone you meet
- Open the door for people you meet
- Give at least 3 compliments today
- Write thank you letter(s)
- Clean out your closets and donate gently-used clothes and toys to a shelter Make military packages to send to our troops (Visit www.operationgratitude.com for more details.)
- Make home-made popsicles to give to friends in the neighborhood
- Clean up litter on your street or in your neighborhood
- Place a flower on cars in a parking lot or in your neighborhood
- Play or talk with someone new
- Let someone else go in front of you in line
- Make someone laugh with a silly joke
How to make the Kindness Punch Box:
Materials needed:
Two standard size sturdy poster boards
Circle cutter (optional)
Tissue paper in various colors
Shipping tape
Masking tape
Cardstock or construction paper
12 brown paper bags
Step 1:
With your ruler, measure how large your poster board is. Use your nifty math skills to figure out where to place your 12 circles. I cut out a four-inch circle to help me figure it out. Like my dad always says, measure twice, cut once. I drew lines across the poster board to make sure everything was even. If you don't have a circle cutter, trace your four-inch circle onto the poster board.
Step 2:
Use your circle cutter or scissors to cut the 12 circles out from the poster board.
Step 3:
Cut 12 six-inch squares of tissue paper.
Step 4:
Cut about three inches off the top of a brown paper bag.
Step 5:
Cut flaps around the top edge of the bag so when you fold the flaps they fan around the bag.
Step 6:
With your masking tape, tape the tissue squares over the poster board circles.
Step 7:
Cut out 12 cardstock strips and write one kindness challenge on each of 12 strips.
Step 8:
Place one challenge in each brown paper bag. Tape the bag's flaps over the tissue paper on the back of the poster board.
Step 9:
Cut your second poster board in two.
Step 10:
Fold one-inch of your poster board over lengthwise. Do this on each of your halves. With your packing tape, tape the folded side of one of the poster board halves to the edge of the main part of the punch box. Repeat with the second half on the other edge of the punch box.
Step 11:
The edge of the poster board will need more fastening. Loop a piece few pieces of packing tape and place them in between the two poster boards to hold in place.
Project complete! Let the challenges begin!

I'm Charlie Nardozzi and this is the Vermont Garden Journal. Eating cucumbers is a great way to keep cool during the summer. In fact, cool as a cucumber isn't just a phrase to describe your personality. The inside of a cucumber fruit can be almost 20 degrees cooler than the outside air on a hot day.
Cukes are easy to grow, but do have two big problems: poor pollination and the cucumber beetle. Most cucumber varieties have separate male and female flowers. They need bees or you to pollinate them to get fruits. If the bees aren't flying due to hot weather, clouds, or just few of them around, you won't get proper pollination.
The solution is to grow varieties that don't require pollination such as 'Diva' or to play cupid. Here's how. In the morning take a cotton swab and swish it inside a male flower (the ones with straight stems behind the blossom). Then go to a female flower (the ones with a small cucumber behind the blossom) and swish it there. Viola- pollination!
Cucumber beetles not only cause damage to the leaves, flowers, and fruits, they spread bacterial wilt disease which causes the plant to wilt and die prematurely. Control the beetles with sprays of spinosad or pyrethrum.
Now for this week's tip, want to get the best flavor from your tomatoes? Perhaps add a little sea salt to the soil. Check out the research from Rutgers University at the Vermont Garden Journal at VPR dot net.
Next week on the Vermont Garden Journal, I'll be talking about hydrangeas! For now, I'll be seeing you in the garden!

If you could see the world now the way Jesus saw it then, just what would it look like, how would the people appear, and what would you look like?P.O.V. is a literary and theatrical term used to describe Point Of View.

(From The Presence & The Power by Gerald Hawthorne, Wipf & Stock Publishers, 1991)"The Gospels … stress the fact that Jesus was indeed a human being simply by recording that he, too, experienced those things – little and big – that go into making up human existence, such as paying taxes, heartily eating and drinking, climbing into fishing boats, and so on (see Matt. 17:24-26; 11:19; 9:1). They note that he was hungry, thirsty, and weary (Matt. 21:18; Luke 4:2; John 4:6-8), in fact, so weary that he was able to fall sound asleep in the cramped quarters of a small boat in a storm (Mar … [Read more...]

Was Jesus Religious?
"I'm after mercy, not religion." Hosea 6:6 The Message "Christ came when all things were growing old. He made them new." AugustineWould Jesus be comfortable attending an average church service today?

The God I DON'T Believe In.
There are many people in the world today who don't believe in God. Even though I now believe in God, when I talk with some of these people I find I agree with them. The kind of God they don't believe in, I don't believe in either. Writer Brian McLaren described the God he doesn't believe in:An uptight God who is about black-and-white easy answers and brittle, rigid logic and law, rather than about profound and many-faceted truth, self-sacrificing love, compassionate justice, and profound relationships. … [Read more...]
Jesus Didn't Come to Start A New Religion.
How many more minutes before the church service would be over? That's all I could think about. Every agenda item on the scheduled liturgy was just something else I would have to endure. My mind worked hard to calculate and estimate how much time each of these "perfunctories" would demand: Invocation – two minutes. Reading from Psalms – five minutes. Hymn #124 – three to five minutes. Hymn #291 – another three to five minutes. Sermon – twenty-five minutes, if I was lucky.

Nelson is a gorgeous part of New Zealand with idyllic coastal spots.
When it comes to stunning scenery and sea views, you can't go past the Abel Tasman Coast Track. One of New Zealand's Great Walks, it passes through golden beaches, coastal forests, with photo opportunities at every turn. Go for a dip in the water at Onetahuti Beach.
Nelson really steps things up with it's bounty of National Parks. Nelson Lakes National Park is spectacular with mountain ranges, remote lakes and an alpine pass for good measure. Choose from a range of walks, short or long, or do a spot of trout fishing at Lake Rotorua.

In addition to National Parks, there are all sorts of other delights in the Nelson region like the Tonga Island Marine Reserve. Kayak, snorkel or dive around the island and you might spot one of many water creatures including dolphins, penguins and seals.

7 Easy Ways to Integrate Twitter into Your Marketing
Lately I've been spending some time talking to partners and my Cisco Channel Marketing counterparts about how and where we can integrate social media into our overall marketing efforts. Frankly, I am a huge proponent of starting with objectives and strategy versus tactics – see my earlier blogs posts that touch on this subject relative to social media – Internet Marketing, Social Media, eMarketing… It's Still Marketing and Social Media ROI: What Do You Measure?
However, I recognize that there are situations where you just need to try some things and see where they can take you. As most of you know Cisco has a fairly large presence on Twitter with Twitter feeds for marketing, product launches, Cisco executives etc. We frequently encourage both our partners and customers to follow us. With this in mind, I thought I would share some easy ways that you can integrate your Twitter presence into your overall marketing efforts. So, if you find yourself in a situation where the proverbial train is leaving the station with social media, this may give you some immediate things you can do to unify your marketing efforts.
1) On your Web Site:
The easiest way to integrate Twitter onto your site is to use the default Twitter widget created by Twitter itself. Twitter gives you the option of three different widgets that you can drop into the sidebar of your site (or your blog, or any other page for that matter): The Profile Widget, the Search Widget and the Faves Widget.
Profile Widget: Displays your most recent Twitter updates on your site.
Search Widget: Display a real-time Twitter Search for your name/company. (Note: There's no filter for profanity or negative comments … so, use with caution.)
Faves Widget: Shows off your favorite tweets. Also in real time, this widget will pull in the tweets you've starred as favorites.
To get the widget on your site, simply choose which one you'd like, customize it (size, colors, etc) and then copy and paste the code generated onto your site. Super easy!
2) Follow Me Buttons:
If you're using Twitter for marketing, building a following is critical. Follow me buttons are like little advertisements to readers and customers that you're on Twitter, making it easy for them to follow you with one click. There are loads of sites that offer Follow Me buttons, but I like Twitter Buttons. They were one of the first out of the gate. With Twitter Buttons, you input your Twitter username and the site generates a number of different Follow Me buttons for you to choose from. Simply pick which button you like and copy/past the HTML code to generate it.
So where should you include a Follow Me button? On your web site, your blog, in emails – Basically anywhere you are reaching customers and prospects online
3) The ReTweet Button:
Tweetmeme offers a neat retweet button that anyone can place on their site to encourage people to easily share your content. Once embedded, the button shows a live count of how many times your content has been retweeted and makes it easy for others to retweet by shortening the URL and pre-populating the tweet with the title. It's a great way to spread your blog content, whitepapers, or online articles.
Making it easy for others to share your content facilitates the building of your online audience and can help to brand you and your company as thought leaders in your specific market.
4) Email Marketing
Many of you have regular email newsletters that you send to your customers or prospects. Maybe the frequency of these newsletters is quarterly or monthly. Integrating a Follow Me button into these regular communication will allow you to build your Twitter following, provide your customers with another way to interact with you, and through content shared on Twitter nurture prospects.
5) Direct Mail
Direct mail is not yet dead. In fact, many of our integrated campaigns and telemarketing programs include a direct mail option. Adding one line that reads "follow us at www.twitter.com/yourname" provides individuals that may not be ready to call you for a network assessment another less intrusive option to learn more about you and possibly engage with you in the future.
This one simple act of adding your Twitter URL to your offline marketing helps to unify your marketing efforts for your customers and prospects.
6) Leverage Your Content
Based upon my partner conversations, I know that obtaining the right content and enough of it to support your presence in social media is still a struggle. Here's my response to that. Every time we create a marketing campaign, we are creating content. You have distinct messages, white papers and analyst reports, product offers etc. that are part of your campaign. Don't think of these things as being unique to the specific campaign you're working on. Content can be mobile. Share a link on Twitter to that whitepaper on Collaboration. Do you have a unique product bundle you're offering? Why not tweet about that? My point is, you have access to more content than you know. Much of which would be of interest to your online followers.
7) Event Promotion
Events are still one of the most popular marketing activities. Going back to the earlier point of leveraging your content, there are a number of ways you can leverage Twitter. Your event is content. Tweet about your upcoming event and possibly drive some incremental registrations and attendance. Tweet during your event and share the valuable content with more than just the people in the room.
My point is, through some very basic actions, Twitter can expand your current marketing efforts and help them be more effective. How are you using Twitter today? Are you integrating your Twitter presence with other aspects of your marketing? Please share!

Thanks for these tips. I am a completely behind the curve when it comes to social networking but am thinking of experimenting with Twitter to attract more business to my site. I would love to hear about people's opinions concerning how Twitter has contributed to their business success.
Hi Ruth, Your post makes several valid points, however in my view Twitter and other SM platforms should be seen as a polite introduction, not a full blown get to know you conversation. Your website, blog or email newsletter is the place for more involved discussion. Twitter should be the smile that leads to the open door.

Australian parents are not crappy
Is Vitamin No deficiency really making us crappy parents? Child psychologist and parenting expert Dr Justin Coulson thinks there's a few things our kids need that are much more important than the word 'no'.
This column originally appeared on The Daily Telegraph.
Australian parents are doing a crappy job in their parenting according to one of Australia's most prominent psychologists, Dr Michael Carr-Gregg.
He says we are too soft, too indulgent and a "Vitamin 'N' deficiency in Australian parenting" exists — that is, not enough parents give their children a clear "No!"
Dr Carr-Gregg is an intelligent professional who cares deeply for families. I expect his assertions may well be accurate for the clients he sees, but they are not valid for the overall population.
Compare how often we say 'no' to how much we say 'yes'
While media promotes the myth that this generation of children is entitled, narcissistic and spoiled by permissive, indulgent, helicopter parents, there is zero empirical support for these claims.
Consider how regularly you say "no" to your children compared to how often you say "yes". Studies indicate young children are prevented from doing something they want to do every few minutes. While this may be understandable for safety reasons, the most common reasons we say no relate to what is convenient for us, as parents, rather than our children's protection.
To be sure, our children need to be told "no" from time to time for their own safety and wellbeing. Limits show we care. But when "no" is required, the way we say it matters as much as the fact that we say it at all.
When we place limits ahead of love we run the risk of creating more problems. Researchers have found a pervasive "no" culture leaves children feeling they are neither cared for nor understood. Such a "no" is painful, dismissive, and often signals disapproval. When repeated too often, "no" undermines self-worth and promotes a sense of despair and helplessness.
The best vitamin 'N' is 'Nurture'
Vitamins should promote good health. "No" often fails this test. The best vitamin "N" needs to be "Nurture". It is nurture rather than "no" that leads to resilient, happy children.
Researchers have found a pervasive "nurture" culture is one of thoughtful involvement between parent and child. When children ask a question they are not dismissed with a shrug and a "no." Instead, parents see requests as an opportunity for connecting and teaching. This nurturing response fosters responsibility, accountability and ownership.
Research of 16,000 youth conducted by Andrew Fuller, director of Resilient Youth Australia and author of Tricky Teens, showed that between 95 and 100 per cent of youth with high levels of resilience believed their parents cared for them. Less than 10 per cent of youth with low levels of resilience felt cared for and understood by their parents.
Parents of highly resilient children are far more likely to rely on a "nurture" approach than a "no" formula.
Dr Carr-Gregg is right: our parenting needs to improve
The parents I speak to every day of the week want nothing more than to be better parents.
His suggestion that over-indulgence and permissiveness spoil children is also right. But the proposed remedy of a strict culture of "no" will alienate children, aggravate parents and fracture families. It will create resistance and create more problems than it solves.
What are kids lacking these days? Is it the word 'no', or do we just need to nurture our kids more?

There's kind of a feeding frenzy going on around Robert Griffin III right now, one I'm not convinced is entirely deserved. Many of the greatest works of literature are not examined as diligently as 10-minute speeches conducted in back hallways shortly after men in funny pants have run into each other for three hours.
But you don't want to know what I think. You want to know what Brian Dawkins thinks, as represented by his appearance Wednesday morning on ESPN Radio.
"Well that comment after the game, as soon as I heard it, I cringed," Dawkins said, referring to Griffin's explanation for his game-ending interception. "And I closed my eyes. And you kind of say, naw, you can't do that….As soon as he said it, I cringed. Because you immediately pointed the finger to somebody else. The first thing that came out of his mouth was 'The receivers didn't get open.' And then, 'I got pressure, if I'd have taken a sack…'. That's two people you're throwing up under the bus. You're throwing your receivers under the bus, you're throwing your offensive line under the bus, and 'so I just had to just try to wing it out of the back of the end zone.' "
"In that situation, you just say, 'You know what? I made a bad play. That was on me. I have to get the ball out of the back of the end zone, no matter what's going on around me, no matter what's going on with my teammates.' You don't have to even mention those guys.
"It all started to me in the offseason," Dawkins continued. "Everything was about RG coming back. You had all these other things going on — he's doing a documentary about himself — you had a lot going on during the offseason. And I know as a defender playing against him, I got tired of hearing it. So I'm pretty sure his teammates got tired of him being on TV as well."
"And while there's a lot of people that would say 'Well wait a minute, he might be telling the truth there,' it doesn't matter," host Mike Golic chimed in. "Not in the locker room. The locker room, the quarterback, he's usually got to be the leader, he's got to be the one that says 'The ball's in my hand, I've got to make a play, and I didn't make a play.'"

The Northwoods Figure Skating Club (NFSC) is a nonprofit, non-stock incorporated organization whose purpose is to encourage the instruction, practice and advancement of its members in all types of figure skating and basic hockey skating concepts. The NFSC was founded in 1989 and skates at the Rice Lake Hockey Arena, the Cumberland Ice Rink and the Barron Ice Arena.
The NFSC, Inc. is an official member of the United States Figure Skating Association (USFS), the governing body of amateur figure skating in the United States. This association entitles the local skaters to conduct and to participate in official USFS test sessions, competitions and ice shows.
The Basic Skills program is designed to teach the basic fundamentals of skating to students of all levels. The progressive levels enable each skater to develop more and more difficult skills while improving physical fitness. Each class is taught in a group manner.
Testing for badges will take place two times during each session (midway and at the end). Each student will receive a Certificate of Achievement. Those students that pass their test elements will earn a badge and be advanced to the next level.
This curriculum is divided into two categories.
1. A program for beginners with eight progressive levels each consisting of simple elements to introduce the beginner skater to moves needed to learn harder, more difficult skills.
2. A program for Intermediate skaters with badges in Freeskate. There are six levels in each area of interest. Badges are rewarded as the student masters the set of elements in that particular level.
Snowplow Sam:
A "tots" curriculum designed to introduce fundamental skills to preschool aged skaters. Badges may be earned at three levels. Each level is more elementary in comparison to those presented in Basic Skills.
Specialized courses:
NFSC is working with several high level coaches in offering specialized training techniques for specific figure skating elements for beginner through advanced skaters.

If you want to gain insight into the real-world uses of VMware ESX and ESXi, this book provides scores of step-by-step solutions for working with these products in a wide range of network environments. You'll not only learn the basics -- how to pool resources from hardware servers, computer clusters, networks, and storage, and then distribute them among virtual machines -- but also the stumbling blocks you'll encounter when you monitor systems, troubleshoot problems, and deal with security.
In addition to the recipes, VMware Cookbook includes background information to help you determine your virtualization needs. You'll come to view VMware as part of the real environment, alongside operating systems, storage, and logical and physical network components.
Many resources can teach you about virtualization and the basics of VMware. This book is for system administrators who are ready to go beyond an introduction.
Ryan Troy has over 12 years of Unix/Linux system administration experience, working in diverse industries that range from web hosting to the newspaper industry. He has written articles for Linux Identity magazine and co-authored articles for Linux+ magazine. He is passionate about virtualization, specifically VMware's technologies. Ryan also founded the now-official Ubuntu Linux forums (http://www.ubuntuforums.org) in October 2004; he currently serves as technical administrator and chairman of the Ubuntu Forum Council. One of Ryan's latest projects has been to architect and build a virtualization infrastructure for a large newspaper chain in Michigan using VMware's ESX product line along with Dell Equallogic Storage Arrays. Ryan is also a VMware Certified Professional.

Matthew Helmke has written articles for magazines such as Linux+ and Linux Identity, helped write Prentice Hall's The Official Ubuntu Book, and has written and self-published two books about Arabic and Moroccan culture. He first used Unix in 1987 while studying Lisp on a Vax at the university. Currently, he is an active member of the Ubuntu Linux community as an Administrator and Forum Council member for the Ubuntu Forums (ubuntuforums.org), and a member of the membership approval committee for Ubuntu in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. He has run a business using only free software, has done some consulting, and is currently working on a master's degree in Information Resources and Library Science at the University of Arizona.

The animal on the cover of VMware Cookbook is a leatherback sea turtle (Dermochelys coriacea). At four to eight feet in length, the leatherback turtle is the fourth largest reptile, behind certain species of crocodile. Most sea turtles have bony shells; however, the leatherback's shell is made of skin and oily flesh.
Leatherback sea turtles live as far north as the Arctic Circle and as far south as the Cape of Good Hope in Africa and the southernmost tip of New Zealand. They inhabit all tropical and subtropical oceans.
The turtle's diet consists almost entirely of jellyfish, and ecologists theorize that the turtle plays a key role in controlling jellyfish populations. Scientists also note that the leatherback turtle continues to be important to local ecosystems even after it dies: decomposing leatherback turtles often wash ashore and host various species of flies and beetles.
As with other sea turtles, leatherbacks begin their lives on land as they burst forth from the sand of their nesting beaches. Yet their lives are in danger even before they are born: birds and humans eat leatherback turtle eggs (in Malaysia, where the leatherback turtle is nearly extinct, the eggs are considered a delicacy). The danger doesn't end, however, once leatherbacks are born: birds, crustaceans, reptiles, and people will often eat newbornturtles before they reach the water. Once they reach the sea, the turtles become prey for some species of fish and cephalopods. Given all of their predators, very few leatherbacks reach adulthood; those that do usually have a life span of 30 to 50 years.

VMWare Cookbook
By James
from Philadelphia, PA
About Me Sys Admin
Comments about oreilly VMware Cookbook:
VMware CookbookRyan Troy and Matthew HelmkeO'ReillyVMware Cookbook is written in a similar fashion to what many IT professionals are accustomed to when searching the knowledge base of any vendor. It clearly states the problem, the solution and an area for discussion. It would be extremely difficult, if not impossible to cover every problem that an administrator will encounter when working with a virtual environment, however, this book addresses a wide array of issues and common tasks from installation to networking and general security. The book will benefit professionals who are beginning to plan their first virtual environment, as well as, those who have been working with VMware for sometime and are interested in performing more advanced level tasks. The setup of the book allows for quick reference to determine what tasks are available when administering a virtual environment. One area I would have liked to see the authors include is a general troubleshooting chapter to cover some common issues and nuances of working in a virtual environment that a new administrator may experience.Overall this book is a handy utility that any virtual administrator should have in their library for quick reference.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Nice reference book for VMware products
By Raj
from Palo Alto, CA
About Me Developer
This is a good book for anyone working with the Enterprise products of VMware :ESX, ESXi and vCenter Server. The authors walk us through the installation of each of the products in detail(they even include screenshots of the installation process) in the first chapter. In the second chapter, they cover different types of storage and how to use them in an ESX environment. In the third chapter, they cover recipes for configuring networking for ESX. In the fourth chapter, they cover the important topic of resource management.What I really liked about the book is that in the fifth chapter, they present a bunch of really useful command-line tools.I wish they covered at least a part of the different APIs (for example: vSphere PowerCLI) that are provided by VMware but may be they plan to cover these in a future edition of the book.

Excellent guide for VMware admins
By WGARIDER
from Atlanta, GA
As someone who works with VMware most everyday, I'm always on the lookout for new tips, ideas and things that make administration easier. VMware Cookbook is organized into seven chapters that cover everything from installation to automation and much in between. The authors do a great job of explaining the nuts and bolts of core VMware functions in very understandable terms. The resource management and automation chapters were particularly useful and apply to tasks I come across frequently.This is not a book that offers a broad reference - and doesn't claim to be; rather it offers VMware admins many, many useful tips, configuration options and excellent ways to fine-tune your systems. If you're looking beyond the basics of virutalization with VMware and want to get a better understanding of specific areas and learn more about optimizing and monitoring ESX, this is an excellent resource for you.

Cheese and Biscuits - 8/10
Monday, November 01, 2010 - Best of all was a simply wonderful chicken dish containing superbly moist pieces of meat and the richest, densest, most addictively flavoured tomato curry sauce I have ever eaten in my life. If I go back to Quilon, and I'm almost certain I will, it will be for this dish above all others...With a very good sweet mango lassie to start, as well as a bowl of lemon rice and another interesting bread, the bill would have still come to under 30 quid a head which is fantastic value for this range and quality of food.
A Girl Has To Eat
Tuesday, April 20, 2010 - The decor, with its mustard coloured seating and pinewood flooring, has the look of a business hotel brasserie. This is unsurprising as the restaurant is situated in the Crowne Plaza Hotel building. But decoration scheme aside, this was a lovely meal with some decent spicing and flavours. Service was polished and attentive, and at 22 pounds a head it was one of the better value Michelin lunch menus that I have ever had in London.
