SAVANNAH, Georgia (June 1, 2014) — Sure to be a splendid couples' getaway retreat, Savannah's beauty and fun deliver a year-around fanfare of nature performing, architecture at full attention, and friendly citizens' welcomes, according to Green Palm Inn bed and breakfast on Greene Square. Sometimes the fanfare is of ceremonial music and spectacular fireworks, too.
Hearing the Tuba Fanfare or Bombarde Fanfare from the organ music played at St. John's Episcopal Church on Madison Square, or a wedding march for wedding couples marrying in a Savannah square or Forsyth Park is likely the only musical fanfare daily in Savannah. The exceptions will be on parade days with rows of bands and drum majors are in step, marching through the National Landmark Historic District.
For a couple's getaway in Savannah, one might catch the visual fanfare of fireworks during First Friday celebrations each month on the Savannah waterfront, July 4th fireworks along the Savannah River, July 3rd fireworks on Tybee Island beach, or at Savannah Sand Gnats games.
All summer: Sand Gnats minor league baseball (New York Mets farm team). Check schedule for Savannah home games.
July 4, 2014: 4th of July Fireworks on the Savannah River waterfront
"Fanfares were never sounded once, but three times, resounding with long trilling chords, fanciful arpeggios, and a drawn-out drumroll." — "Fanfare", Eycyclopedia of the Exquisite, Jessica Kerwin Jenkins
Yes, the visual fanfares in Savannah are in multiples, too!
When romantic couples walk through Savannah squares, along uptown sidewalks, or stroll the Savannah River it is possible to imagine and sense fanciful arpeggios and quiet drawn-out drum rolls.
On special occasions one can catch the fanfare of Marine Corps Battle Color Detachment playing, like it did in springtime 2014 in Beaufort, South Carolina. It's a rare privilege to hear and see the U.S. Army's Old Guard Fife and Drum Corps (Fort Myers, VA)play, like in the Savannah St. Patrick's Day Parade. In recent years the U.S. Coast Guard Pipes and Drums (Norfolk, VA), and Irish Air Corps Pipes and Drums (Dublin, Ireland) offer rousing fanfare! In 2013 Fire Department units from across the United States played in a collective Pipe & Drum Corps marching unit in Savannah's City Market during St. Patrick's Day festivities.
Why choose patriotic, playful, or peaceful fanfare, when couples in Savannah can enjoy them all?!
Get away when you can. We think you will adore Savannah style fanfare and friendly Green Palm Inn as your first stop on your couple's getaway in Savannah, Georgia USA.
Innkeeper/co-owner Diane Crews touts Green Palm Inn (circa 1897) as "The Softer Side of Savannah". Originally sea captain cottages, the four-room Gingerbread Classic B&B shares cottage-inn comforts in the quiet of Greene Square's residential neighborhood in the National Landmark Historic District. Fodor's guide calls Green Palm Inn a "pleasing little discovery" and "a little gem of an inn". BedandBreakfast.com named the cottage B&B a top pick for a holiday trip – "Top 10 B&Bs for the Holidays, 2011″.

CANADA FX DEBT-C$ gets lift from crude price jump, weak greenback
* Canadian dollar at C$1.2490 or 80.06 U.S. cents * Bond prices rise across the maturity curve By Solarina Ho TORONTO, Feb 12 (Reuters) - The Canadian dollar powered higher against a globally weaker greenback on Thursday as crude prices rose and weak U.S. retail sales data raised questions about the timing of the Federal Reserve's next interest rate move. Prices for oil, a major Canadian export, bounced as industry spending cuts and a weaker greenback offset jitters about record supply levels. The U.S. dollar, which had already weakened broadly following a media report that the Bank of Japan saw further monetary stimulus as counter-productive, was also hurt by weaker-than-expected retail sales and jobless claims data. The U.S. dollar index was down 0.5 percent so far in February, on track for its first monthly loss in eight months. Market participants had predicted that lower gasoline prices meant more money in consumers' pockets for spending but retail sales data, which declined for the second straight month, have shown otherwise. "That's thrown a bit of a cautionary red flag up ... you could see the Federal Reserve be a bit more cautious around when they may look to raise rates," said Scott Smith, senior market analyst at Cambridge Mercantile Group in Calgary. The market is currently expecting the U.S. central bank to hike interest rates around mid-year but further weak U.S. data could see the Fed push a decision back to later in the year. The Canadian dollar finished at C$1.2490 to the U.S. dollar, or 80.06 U.S. cents, firmer than Wednesday's close of C$1.2641, or 79.11 U.S. cents. Strategists said any strength in the Canadian dollar will be short-lived, saying Bank of Canada comments this week that the Canadian economy was operating below potential continued to weigh. As a backdrop, Germany, France, Russia and Ukraine agreed on a deal on Thursday that offers a "glimmer of hope" for an end to fighting in eastern Ukraine after marathon overnight talks. . "There's a real spectrum of factors that, net-net, are, from a global economic perspective, somewhat bullish," said Brad Schruder, director of foreign exchange at BMO Capital Markets. "This retracement from yesterday when we almost broke C$1.27, is probably more flow related than it was any fundamental shift." Canadian manufacturing sales data for December are due on Friday. If the data disappoints, the loonie strength could unwind pretty quickly, Smith said. Canadian government bond prices were higher across the maturity curve, with the two-year up 3 Canadian cents to yield 0.421 percent, and the benchmark 10-year jumped 53 Canadian cents to yield 1.397 percent.

The 25-year-old singer performs near London's Thames River to remember the late King of Pop in 'The Early Show' special.
Early in the morning on June 25, James Morrison strapped his guitar and performed in an intimate set for one-year death anniversary of Michael Jackson. He showcased an acoustic rendition of the late King of Pop's hit single "Man in the Mirror".
The British singer did his live performance near London's Thames River with Tower Bridge standing tall on the background. Halfway through, people who came out watching the gig followed him singing the chorus of the 1988 song.
Stateside, Melanie Fiona also took part in the remembrance event which was held as part of CBS' "The Early Show" special program dubbed "The King of Pop: One Year Later". Live from New York, she delivered Jackson Five's 1970 track "I'll Be There".
Other celebrities paying homage to Michael Jackson on the Friday episode of "Early Show" included LL Cool J, Christina Aguilera and Marc Anthony.

Owing to their structural dispersion, the catalytic properties of nanoparticles are challenging to characterize in ensemble-averaged measurements. The single-molecule approach enables studying the catalysis of nanoparticles at the single-particle level with real-time single-turnover resolution. This article reviews our single-molecule fl uorescence studies of single Au-nanoparticle catalysis, focusing on the theoretical formulations for extracting quantitative reaction kinetics from the single-turnover resolution catalysis trajectories. We discuss the single-molecule kinetic formulism of the Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism for heterogeneous catalysis, as well as of the two-pathway model for product dissociation reactions. This formulism enables the quantitative evaluation of the heterogeneous reactivity and the differential selectivity of individual nanoparticles that are usually hidden in ensemble measurements. Extension of this formulism to single-molecule catalytic kinetics of oligomeric enzymes is also discussed.

text: Austin Macauley 16 April 2014 Survey reveals 89% want councils in charge of new schools A new poll has revealed overwhelming public support for councils to take back the power to open new schools. The Local Government Association (LGA) survey found 89% of people in England believe the power to build and maintain new schools should be returned to local authorities. Councils ceded control over who provides new schools following the Academies Act 2010 and the final say now lies with the education secretary. However, local government is still responsible for ensuring there are enough school places locally and despite creating 90,000 last year a further 130,000 are still needed, according to the LGA. Cllr Apu Bagchi, deputy chair of the LGA's children and young people board, said: 'This poll result reflects the trust residents have in councils. Councils have a duty to ensure there is a school place for every child and parents should know they will do everything in their power to ensure there is no child without a place. 'The challenge for local authorities is making sure places are created on time and in the right places, in a climate where some of the decision-making about new school places is now in the hands of the government. 'Although some school places have been created by free schools, these have not always been in line with demand locally. Additionally, some applications have stalled, leading to uncertainty for mums and dads. 'By returning the power to create schools to councils, government could ensure school places for children of all ages can be delivered according to local demand, and in line with the local needs of parents and young people.' A Department for Education spokesperson said: 'We are increasing the number of good school places by tackling underperformance and opening new free schools and academies. We have also more than doubled to £5bn the funding available to councils to create new school places, and are allowing good schools to expand without the restrictions and bureaucracy they faced in the past. 'This has already led to the creation of 260,000 new school places - all of which are in areas where there is a shortage of places, while seven out of 10 new places created under the free schools programme are in areas of basic need. Thanks to our reforms, the number of children in failing secondary schools has already fallen by a quarter of a million since 2010.' LGA View more information on these councils

I would say if you (media) guys would have played out my season in the summer, how it would go, I'd be on track right now, he said during a conference call with reporters Tuesday morning, as he looked ahead to Saturday's homecoming game against unbeaten Northwestern.
He is really just flying around, as he added and as everyone has surely noticed by now.
I mean, I feel great, he said. I feel great physically and I'm just really having a lot of fun, playing with our defense and playing on this team. Really, I'd say I'm on track and I'd say our team is on track. We've just got to keep continuing to get better and doing what we've been doing.
Fully recovered from the knee injury he suffered early last season his second major knee injury in three years he is playing as well as ever, with a team-high 48 tackles through five games, a total that leaves him tied for fourth in the Big Ten. That includes six stops in the 35-7 rout of the Fighting Illini, a game in which he had two picks in all.
He was as a result named Walter Camp National Defensive Player of the Week, and Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week for the second time in three games. And while he was among those who downplayed the significance of last Saturday's game, everybody was well aware of what it meant, in light of the Illini's attempted poaching of PSU players over the summer.
Mauti had been vocal about his disdain for that practice. Saturday was the obvious follow-up, and another example of the exceptional leadership he has shown not only throughout this season, but the entire tumultuous year.
That's something else he downplays, by the way. He said that in his mind leadership is just being out on the field, making plays, and indeed safety Malcolm Willis said that Mauti is more on the quiet side, a guy more apt to lead by example.
Mauti doesn't believe that makes him unusual among his classmates.
A lot of our seniors are expected to make those plays and be a big-time contributor, he said. That's kind of the way it's been set up. I think that's our role, and a lot of guys have accepted that.
Willis agreed that the seniors' leadership has been unmatched. But again, Mauti seems to have long ago emerged from the pack. He was the one who was chosen to represent the current team as a speaker at Joe Paterno's memorial service in January. He was the one who spoke, along with his roommate, Michael Zordich, when several Lions gave a show of solidarity after the NCAA sanctions were announced in July.
He has stepped forward in smaller, less noticeable ways, too. For one thing, he plays on the punt team he was bearing down on Illini return man Tommy Davis when Davis fumbled in the first quarter last weekend something usually reserved for backups. But he doesn't believe that's anything out of the ordinary, either, having seen star linebackers like NaVorro Bowman, Sean Lee and Josh Hull do the same when he was an underclassman.
It was always something I thought, that's just the way that it was, he said. I always assumed that I would be on it, and never really thought twice about it. To me I really enjoy it, just because it is a lot of fun, as you can see. You really have some opportunities to make some big plays.
And he's all about that, in every phase. He intercepted Nathan Scheelhaase's pass at the goal line in the closing seconds of last Saturday's second quarter, and took off. He would ultimately run further than he had ever run in a game, but was hauled down on the 1 with a single second left in the half.
Coach Bill O'Brien opted for a field-goal attempt, something he said he regretted, after the game and again during his weekly news conference Tuesday, and the 18-yard try by Sam Ficken was blocked. It ultimately didn't matter, as the Lions (3-2) were well on their way to their third straight victory.
And, Mauti said, Obviously to come so close and not get in there, that one's going to hurt, but what are you going to do? I've definitely been catching a lot for that for not getting in, being a couple inches away. There's nothing you can do about it now, but I've definitely been hearing a lot about it.
O'Brien, who has often spoken glowingly about Mauti and his fellow seniors, said Tuesday that he first met Mauti on Jan. 7, after his first team meeting. Mauti, typically, wanted to know all about the new coach's strength and conditioning program.
So I knew right away that he was a passionate football player, O'Brien said.
And in the coach's mind seniors like Zordich, Jordan Hill, Gerald Hodges, Stephon Morris and Jake Fagnano are kindred spirits with Mauti.
I have no idea what's going to happen this year, O'Brien said. I always tell you, I'm not a genie, but I do know that this is a very special group of kids that practice very hard and have excellent leadership qualities.
So it's not that Mauti is uncomfortable being viewed as the face of the team, as someone suggested during Tuesday's call; it's just that he doesn't believe it's an accurate portrayal.
There's a lot of people in our organization that deserve a lot of credit, he said. That's just kind of the way I was raised: I never want to take all the credit. Shoot, you could give it to Coach O'Brien, and a lot of other people great seniors in our organization. I don't feel uncomfortable with it at all, but I see it a different way sometimes. It's hard for me to see it the way you guys see it, you know?

As I write this on a cold winter Friday afternoon, most of the Northeastern United States is abuzz in preparations for an incoming blizzard. By the time this posts, we'll all know whether the "snowmageddon" Storm Nemo hype spun by the weather folks was true. In the meantime, the forecast of multiple feet of snow combined with high winds has created the real possibility of long-lasting power outages and tough travel. As a result, IT directors throughout the region are scrambling to make sure they're ready.
Of course, the lead-up to a big storm is always the time people seem to realize they've forgotten a detail or two. As a consultant and adviser, I've received more than a few panicked calls over the years asking whether I happen to have a few extra servers (or even an enterprise-class SAN!) kicking around "just in case." We all know that planning for a disaster when you're staring it in the face is probably too late, but what if there's a different way to approach the question of disaster preparedness in IT?
In the old days, the idea of transitioning mission-critical workloads to a data center that's not in the path of a storm might have been a capability that only a few of the very largest enterprises could afford to implement (and even then for relatively small portions of their infrastructure). However, as storage and virtualization technologies have continued to advance and cloud infrastructure offerings mature, the ability to completely sidestep disasters rather than weathering the storm has become available to many more organizations.

Tzatziki Potato Salad
Tzatziki is a traditional Greek appetizer (or meze) made with yogurt and cucumbers. Here, Grace Parisi uses it in addition to mayonnaise as the base for her incredibly tasty potato salad tossed with dill, mint and serrano chile.
- Total Time:
- Servings: 6
- 2 1/2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 3/4-inch cubes
- 3/4 cup Greek-style, plain fat-free yogurt
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 3 Kirby cucumbers—peeled, seeded and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 1 serrano chile, seeded and thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup coarsely chopped mint
- 1 tablespoon chopped dill
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
How to make this recipe
Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and cook over high heat until tender, about 9 minutes. Drain, gently shaking out the excess water. Spread the potatoes on a baking sheet in a single layer and freeze for about 10 minutes, just until no longer warm.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk the yogurt with the mayonnaise until smooth. Add the cucumbers, chile, mint and dill. Fold in the potatoes, season with salt and pepper and serve.
Make Ahead
The potato salad can be refrigerated for 2 days.

Laura and Nathan's Wedding
"If you want good food, great service, and no worries, you need to go here! Everyone was so nice and my guests were impressed by the menus, the personal service, and the how great the food was. The only negative, don't go with their original cake vendor if they include the cake in your package, go with the Baking Institue in Wheeling, the cake was AMAZING!"

Rails in Action: The 56 Best RoR Driven Sites
Find out what Ruby on Rails is capable of and who's taking it to the next level.
By now you've read our Ruby on Rails guides and have discovered how powerful RoR is. You've probably even had some success in developing RoR websites and apps for yourself. If you're like most developers, however, you're wondering what else you, and for that matter rails, can do.
To showcase the latest and greatest RoR implementations, we've assembled a list of the 56 best Ruby on Rails websites and tools in action today. From social networks of local tutors to tools allowing business partners to collaborate on projects across the globe, these RoR websites will inspire you to take your Ruby on Rails development to the next level.
Nearly every Ruby on Rails list contains the 4 mainstay pieces of software developed by the company that just happened to start the Ruby on Rails craze. We figured we'd get it out of the way and list them first.
- Basecamp - The definitive solution for managing projects and coordinating staff and client schedules.
- Backpack - A service allowing you to organize files, dates, notes, to-do lists and more.
- Campfire - Chatroom software with image and file sharing. Useful for project collaboration.
- Highrise - The ultimate rolodex. Manage your contacts and archive conversations.
These apps are perhaps the primary reason Ruby on Rails was developed: to maximize your business profitability.
- Competitious - Monitor your competition with this ingenious tool. Track RSS feeds, public documents, web traffic levels and exchange information internally on various competitors.

- Harvest - Dynamic time tracking software. Allows you to stay in tune with how much time is being spent on what.
If you're looking to take a trip, make the most of it by using the following RoR websites. You'd be surprised how much money, time, and stress a few well drawn maps and well thought out itineraries can save you.
- TripTie - A social network where travelers share itineraries with each other in order to plan more adventurous (and cheaper) trips.
- Wayfairing - A fantastic Google Maps solution for creating maps to describe unique locations including famous monuments, traffic hazards, restaurants, etc. Uses a social network approach to distribute maps allowing users to comment, tag and track maps.

Missionaries, monarchs and whales: a Hawaiian tale
By Nick Olivari
NEW YORK (Reuters Life!) - Tropical sun over a cast of puritan missionaries, incestuous monarchs, licentious whalers and greedy sugar barons could make for a compelling soap opera.
But for Hawaii the story ends badly, at least according to Sarah Vowell's book "Unfamiliar Fishes," which explores the year 1898 through the annexation of Hawaii and the political machinations in the decades preceding.
Vowell, 41, is passionate and to the point about what at least the local population of Hawaii probably sees as a dark point in its history. But she also places the year in wider context.
For her it was the moment the U.S. "lost its way", beginning its rise to global superpower.
After years of wrangling by various factions in the islands and the mainland, the United States, on the heels of its victory in the Spanish-American War and the resultant control of a vast swathe of the Pacific, tacked Hawaii on to its list of possessions.
"There was no turning back from empire but empire really goes against what the country stands for," Vowell said in a telephone interview. "I'm not saying the U.S. has not done some good but saying it was a change in direction."
Vowell informs readers that in 1778 when British sailor Captain James Cook was the first European to land, the Hawaiian population was estimated at 300,000. By the 1890 census, pure Hawaiians were recorded at just 34,346, due to illnesses such as small pox, cholera, influenza, typhoid, measles and venereal disease.
She said researching Hawaiian culture has made her more aware of her own biases and prejudices. Continued...

Currently GM has a few more than 30 Cruze-shell mule prototypes running around the proving grounds and in various test facilities. These cars have been performing flawlessly. Though containing a near-final Chevy Volt powertrain and battery, they do not possess the true Chevy Volt interior or exterior design.
The next critical stage in Volt development process will be the building of true to form and function Chevrolet Volt prototypes. This particular level of vehicle are known as integration vehicles or as GM calls them, IVers.
Andrew Farah, the Volt's lead engineer actually has a countdown clock in his office revealing that 63 days from today, assembly of the first true Volt will start. All the parts will be lined up at the low volume assembly facility and will begin to come together that day. Andrew notes the first one will take longer to produce, but for all intents and purposes will come to life on June 1st. They will then be built at a rate of roughly 10 per week until a total fleet of over 80 is completed.
Those cars "will look, taste, smell, and feel like the Volt. They are the Volt," said Farah "my goal is by Forth of July to be out driving several of them."
By the fall, it could be argued that GMs Volt fleet will surpass the size of the fleets of many of the start-up electric car manufacturers.
According to Greg Ceisel, GM's Voltec manager, 2010 will bring several more build stages. "We've got several phases leading up to the production launch where we build larger and larger batches," says Ciesel "in each phase as we perfect the production process, make sure we've got all the fit finish and other details exactly correct and that the quality of the vehicle meets our standards before we go into the first vehicles that will ultimately be saleable vehicles that will be shipped to the dealerships."
He said there will be "a hundred or so" of these final pre-production Volts that will also act as a captured test fleet for mostly GM employees.
By November of 2010 the first saleable Volts will begin being built at the Hamtramck plant and shipped to dealerships.

LONDON — Silence for the queen, please.
A troupe of street drummers got a shock when Helen Mirren, dressed as Queen Elizabeth II, emerged from a London theater to berate them for disrupting her show.
Mirren is starring in "The Audience," a drama about the weekly meetings between the queen and Britain's prime ministers over her 60-year reign.
Mirren told the Daily Telegraph newspaper that she used less-than-royal language in the rant during the intermission of Saturday's performance.
"I'm afraid there were a few 'thespian' words used," Mirren was quoted as saying today. "They got a very stern royal ticking off but I have to say they were very sweet and they stopped immediately.
"I felt rotten, but on the other hand they were destroying our performance so something had to be done."
The drummers were marching through London's West End to promote As One in the Park, a gay music festival being held later this month.
"Not much shocks you on the gay scene," parade organizer Mark McKenzie told the Telegraph. "But seeing Helen Mirren dressed as the queen cussing and swearing and making you stop your parade — that's a new one."

PARIS — A French mayor says Oscar-nominated actress Keira Knightley has said "oui" to rocker James Righton in a small wedding ceremony in southern France.
Aime Navello said Sunday the couple followed French tradition when he married them at the Mazan town hall on Saturday. Navello read the service in French and the couple responded in French and English. He said about 10 people were present.
Righton is keyboard player for the rock group Klaxons. He and Knightley got engaged a year ago.
Knightley first won notice for her role as a soccer-playing teenager in "Bend It Like Beckham." She went on to star in the first three "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies and was nominated for an Oscar for playing Elizabeth Bennet in an adaptation of Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice."

JAKARTA, Indonesia — Aerosmith canceled a show in Indonesia after authorities there said they had foiled a bomb plot targeting the Myanmar Embassy.
Concert promoter Ismaya Live cited safety concerns as the reason for the cancellation, but it wasn't clear if there was a direct connection to the alleged embassy plot.
The American rockers were scheduled to perform this coming Saturday for a nearly sold-out crowd of 15,000 in the capital, Jakarta, said Helmi Sugara, event organizer spokesman.
The statement about the cancellation carried an apology from Aerosmith also saying they hoped to make it up to the fans one day. There was no immediate indication they would reschedule.
Indonesian police said Friday they had arrested two suspected militants and seized bombs the suspects were plotting to use against the Myanmar Embassy in Jakarta to protest Myanmar's treatment of Muslims.
They're scheduled to play Wednesday in the Philippines.
Western music acts are popular in Indonesia, but Islamic hard-liners have forced changes or cancellations in the past.
Lady Gaga canceled what was to be the biggest performance on her "Born This Way Ball" tour in Asia last year. Hard-liners had threatened violence if the concert was held because they saw the pop diva as a corrupting influence.
Jennifer Lopez, who judged "American Idol" alongside Aerosmith's Steven Tyler for two seasons, toned down her costumes and dance moves during an Indonesian concert in late November.

LOS ANGELES — Charlie Sheen supports a decision by child protective services to remove his twin sons from the custody of his ex-wife and have them live temporarily with another of his exes, actress Denise Richards, his spokesman said Friday.
Larry Solters wrote in a statement that Sheen will participate in court proceedings related to ex-wife Brooke Mueller's custody of their 4-year-old sons. Mueller and Sheen were married in 2008 and divorced in 2011.
"He knows Max and Bob are safe and in a stable, loving environment with Denise and the boys' sisters," Solters wrote. "Charlie will fully cooperate and fully participate in all proceedings."
Celebrity website RadarOnline.com reported Friday that the twins were removed from Mueller's custody by the Department of Children and Family Services.
Mueller has struggled with addiction for years, but it remains unclear what prompted officials to remove her sons from her care. The agency's investigations are confidential, and Mueller and Richards' representatives have declined to comment.
Sheen and Richards have two daughters from their marriage, which ended in 2006.

Women's Lacrosse Summer Camp Edition
Looking to improve your lacrosse skills or take your game to the next level? The University of Michigan women's lacrosse program will host two summer camps that accommodate all skill levels. Registration will close on Monday, July 1, 2013, so sign up today at www.wolverinelaxcamps.com!
41. Wolverine Lacrosse Camp (July 16-18, 2013)
The Wolverine Lacrosse Camp is a developmental style camp designed for intermediate players who are looking to develop their skills, overall concepts and understanding of the game. This camp is open to rising 6th through 11th graders and each player will be placed in a skill group and on a team according to age and ability levels. The camp will feature an outstanding and knowledgeable, experienced "hands-on" staff comprised of college coaches and players. Camp curriculum covers all facets of the game and includes individual skill breakdown, offensive and defensive concepts, small game situations, and full field competitive games designed to take your game to the next level. Goalkeepers will receive specialized instruction.
40. Michigan Elite Lacrosse Camp (July 23-25, 2013)
The Michigan Elite Lacrosse Camp is for advanced players and is open to rising 9th graders through 12th graders and graduating seniors who have committed to play in college. The Elite Camp will feature a top-level staff comprised of experienced and knowledgeable Division I coaches & players who will help you elevate your game and prepare you for the next level. This intense 3-day camp is designed to provide the serious and experienced lacrosse player a competitive and challenging experience. The camp learning environment will be fast-paced and the curriculum will focus on advanced-level skills & concepts through drills, small-sided games and full-field competition. Goalkeepers will receive specialized instruction. It is recommended that Elite campers have high school varsity or club experience.
39. Coach Ulehla and Coach Valore's camp philosophy
We have developed our Wolverine Lacrosse Camps in a way that will build upon and improve a player's fundamental skills, while introducing new concepts and techniques in order to elevate a player's game to the next level. Our philosophy is that one should not only walk away from camp an improved lacrosse player, but also having had an enjoyable time while developing their game. With an approachable and knowledgeable staff, Wolverine Lacrosse Camps are a fun and friendly environment, conducive to learning new things, establishing new friendships and creating new memories. Wolverine Lacrosse Camps are also a great way to experience what the University of Michigan and the women's lacrosse program is all about!
38. Coach Ulehla and Coach Valore's favorite camp moment of all-time
Coach Ulehla
My favorite recent camp memory was the opportunity for us, as a coaching staff, to see our future Team One come together as a team for the first time last summer during our first official Wolverine Lacrosse Camp. Nothing made me happier than to see the smiles on their faces as they started to develop friendships that will last a lifetime and bonds that will only be strengthened during their four years at Michigan. Their excitement for what's to come was contagious and truly energized us as we went into the last year of preparing this program to enter its first season.
Coach Valore
My favorite memory of attending lacrosse camps while growing up was the opportunity to meet new people and create new relationships through playing the game I loved. It was really neat to attend camp as a young player unaware that some of the people I met and friendships I made would end up being teammates or girls I played against in college. It was fun to sit around and tell the story of "remember at camp when..." years later.

"Customized this with bright pink and yellow for my daughter's first birthday party - they turned out so spectacular. ONLY criticism is that the weight of the stickers is a bit thin... but used them as seals for her invitations and they perfectly coordinated with the address labels (same Fantastic First group, which I also customized). Happy customer!"
"I bought these to label my daughter's birthday favors. I have not used them yet, but they are a well made product and I bought the matching invitation. They feel like good quality stickers and look beautiful."
"I wasn't sure how the chalkboard effect would come across on these sticker tags, but it looks great! We attached these to small bottles of bubble soap as party favors. A huge hit!"
"I had my daughter-in-laws name placed on these...... "Mandy's Baby Shower" and the date of the baby shower underneath..... added a very personal touch to the shower gifts for those attending her shower. Loved the design."
"easy...especially for someone who always forgets to buy cards! design is great for boys. i bought several different designs, but this was, by far, my favorite!"

About meI love to read!!! I am a mother of two, step-mother of three, and adopted "mom" to many! I love to spend time with family and friends, cook, and play games on facebook. I like to watch movies and listen to music; the type of each depends on the day. I am a full-time college student about to get my associates degree and move on to my bachelors.
About my libraryYou are likely to find anything and everything in my library! I love variety in my reading. What I am reading on any given day is directly related to my current mood. I am very selective about the books I buy. If I do not think I will read the book a dozen times, I don't buy it. I own mostly Nora Roberts' books, over 100 of them in fact. You will also find her JD Robb books and Patricia Cornwell in my personal collection. I have read all of the Twilight saga at least four times but don't own any of them!!

Congressman Rick Berg released the following statement regarding the official introduction of a Farm Bill in the House, known as the Federal Agriculture Reform and Risk Management Act (FARRM).
"It is encouraging to see that Chairman Frank Lucas and Ranking Member Collin Peterson have gotten the ball rolling by introducing a Farm Bill in the House," stated Berg. "This is great news for the many farmers and ranchers who are looking for the stability and certainty that a long-term Farm Bill reauthorization would bring. I will continue working with the North Dakota farmers and ranchers, along with Chairman Lucas and Ranking Member Peterson, to do everything we can to pass a strong Farm Bill for North Dakota."
Earlier today, House Committee on Agriculture Chairman Frank Lucas (R -- Oklahoma) and Ranking Member Collin Peterson (D -- Minnesota) issued a joint press release with their respective statements announcing the release of the FARRM Act.
"I'm pleased to release this bipartisan legislation with my friend and colleague Collin Peterson," stated Chairman Lucas. "Our efforts over the past two years have resulted in reform-minded, fiscally responsible policy that is equitable for farmers and ranchers in all regions and will lead to improved program delivery. This bill is an investment in production agriculture and rural America. Those of us in the agriculture community are quick to point out that our producers provide us with the safest, most abundant, most affordable food and fiber supply in the history of the world. We say it because it's true. This legislation is a commitment to maintaining that tradition."
"Congress needs to complete work on the 2012 Farm Bill before the current bill expires, otherwise we jeopardize one of the economic bright spots of our nation's fragile economy," stated Ranking Member Peterson. "The legislation released today brings us yet another step closer to achieving this goal and I am pleased to have worked with the Chairman in this effort. We have a commodity title in place that will work for all parts of the country as well as continued support for the sugar program and my Dairy Security Act. I have long believed every government program must contribute toward deficit reduction and while I would have found other ways to accomplish the bill's nutrition savings, the bottom line is that, working together, we need to keep this farm bill moving forward. There will be challenges ahead, but we will pass the bill out of Committee next week and, if the House leadership gets this right and brings the bill to the floor, we will ultimately finish the bill in September."
Earlier this year, Berg brought Chairman Lucas to North Dakota to discuss firsthand the importance of developing a new Farm Bill that recognizes the unique challenges facing North Dakota farmers and ranchers. Specifically, Berg has stressed the importance of a strong crop insurance program.
The House Committee on Agriculture will consider the legislation during a meeting scheduled for Wednesday, July 11.
Below are the highlights of the discussion draft of the FARRM Act.
FARRM saves more than $35 billion in mandatory funding.
FARRM repeals or consolidates more than 100 programs.
FARRM eliminates direct payments, streamlines and reforms commodity policy that saves taxpayers more than $14 billion.
FARRM improves program integrity and accountability in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) that saves taxpayers more than $16 billion.
FARRM consolidates 23 conservation programs into 13, which improves program delivery to producers and saves taxpayers more than $6 billion.
FARRM provides regulatory relief, including H.R. 872, to mitigate burdens farmers, ranchers, and rural communities face.

Tyler Perry appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show today to reveal "devastating secrets," as Oprah put it in previews.
On his site, Perry promised, "It's the most in-depth and revelatory interview I have ever done."
And he did detail several different moments of sexual abuse as a child growing up in New Orleans.
"I was about five or six," the first time, he said. He was building a bird house in his backyard and a man from across the street came over and put "his hand in my pants," said Perry. "I thought, 'What is this?'"
The next person was "a male nurse at the hospital. And he was doing the same thing. ... Then there was the man in the church who used God and the bible to justify a lot of the things that were going on. That was my first sexual appearance - this man performing oral sex on me as a boy."
And there was the mother of a friend of his, who seduced Perry when he was 10. He went over to play with her son and she locked the front door, laid on the couch and spread her legs, not allowing him to leave. "She puts the key inside herself and tells me to get it. I get the key but I feel my body betraying me again. I felt an erection. This is so disgusting - what these people did to this little boy - she pulled me on top of her and I felt myself inside of her."
He spoke of his father who "hated me so much." And of his mother, whom he "loved so much." He also talked about how the molestation affected him during sexual experiences with women later in life. "Every time after sex I would go to the shower and wash it off of me. I needed to get way from it."
He wept when Oprah asked him what he would say to the little boy left behind? "I would say, 'It's going to be all right."
Tyler first raised the subject of his childhood abuse in 2009, when he posted a letter on his website after experiencing a flood of memories following a screening of the Oscar-nominated Precious, which he co-produced, including a story of remembering a man in his church who molested him.
Perry's new movie, the adaptation of For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow is Enuf, comes out in November.
Perry wasn't the only one who cried during the show. He brought tears to Oprah's eyes by thanking her for all she's done for viewers for 25 years.

Chateau Peby Faugeres (Futures Pre-Sale) 2011
Bordeaux Red Blends from St. Emilion, Bordeaux, France
Critical Acclaim
Wine Spectator - "This goes for it, with bold mocha and ganache aromas followed by dark plum, blackberry and blueberry pâte de fruit notes. The dark, anise-filled finish flirts with overextraction, but ultimately there's beautiful mouthfeel and good vibrancy as the fruit echoes. An impressive effort.
Barrel Sample: 91-94 Points"
The Wine Advocate - "The estate's luxury cuvee, the 2011 Peby Faugeres comes from the oldest (averaging 45 years) sector of the vineyard and is essentially 100% Merlot. Yields were 26 hectoliters per hectare and the fruit was harvested at the end of September. The wine is packaged in a spectacularly beautiful engraved glass bottle. Opaque purple in color, the 2011 is one of the most intense, full and rich wines of the vintage. Notes of ink, graphite, blueberries, black raspberries, toasty oak, white chocolate and mocha are all present in this full-throttle, expansive, savory St.-Emilion. It should drink well for two decades or more.
Barrel Sample: 92-94+ Points."
Chateau Peby Faugeres Winery
Chateau Peby Faugeres stretches over some 7.45 hectares and is located on a single clay and limestone slope, facing south-southeast and consisting of limestone soil on clay and limestone and molasse, soft chalk with silt and clay - a tertiary formation dating back to the upper Eocene and Oligocene.
Thanks to a combination of a rich old soil and a unique micro-climate, the presence of a river and the circular formation of the slope, this terroir in line with the south slope of Saint-Emilion is a world in itself, of which man is merely the custodian. His sole duty is to reveal its full character
Something which Silvio Denz and his team have taken to heart. This terroir is cultivated by means of biological viticulture and meticulous care on the part of the proprietors. View all Chateau Peby Faugeres Wines
About St-EmilionView a map of St-Emilion wineries (saint eh-meel-YOHN)
A region named after the charming, quaint historical town in Bordeaux, St-Émilion is situated on the right bank of Bordeaux. It's grapes of choice are Merlot and Cabernet Franc (called Bouchet on the right bank). The region has its own classification system, updated and revised every few years. Two of the hottest chateaux of the area (and the only Premier Grand Cru Classé A) are Chateau Ausone and Chateau Cheval Blanc.
Notable Facts
St.-Émilion produces the most wine on the right bank of Bordeaux. As most of its wine is based primarily on Merlot, St-Emilion wines are described as having finesse and elegance. The best wine of the region can last upward of 10-20 years, like a good left-banker, but many find that the wines here matuer earlier than those based on Cabernet Sauvignon. The soils in the area differ greatly, from gravel to limestone to clay and sand. As a result, the wines of this region are diverse. Quality wines display silky tannins and ripe, soft fruit – the higher quality wine showing full-bodied texture and layers of complexity.
About France - Other regionsWhen it comes to wine, France is a classic. Classic blends, grapes and styles began in the country and they still remain. Think about it - people ask for a Burgundian style Pinot Noir, they refer to wines as Bordeaux or Rhone blends - Champagne even had to pass a law to stop international wineries from putting their region on the label of all sparkling wine.
The top regions of France are: Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne, Languedoc-Roussillon, Loire, Rhone. And these regions are so diverse! It makes sense that wine regions throughout the world try to emulate their style. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah are no longer French varieties, but international varieties. They may not be the leader of cutting edge technology or value-priced wines, but there is no doubt that they are still producing wines of great quality and diversity.
