A former boulangerie, we have converted it into a sweet little cottage. downstairs is the lounge TV DVD and SKY free to view, leading into kitchen with french doors that leads into the delightful dining conservatory
The cottage backs out directly on to the best view of the garden - the pond with it's fish, water lillies & hundreds of black & green frogs... quite often goosey goose too! As you dine in the conservatory you can watch the Llamas and the other animals go about their 'hectic' lifestyle!
Upstairs is a double bedroom... but please note the ceiling is sloping so anyone that is very tall this may not be for you!
I'm sorry but unsuitable for children... we are a child free zone for couple only breaks.
A former hay loft converted to a great, spacious, airy self contained open planned private apartment with separate bedroom & en suite, a south westerly facing private walk out patio over looking the countryside, OR our sweet little cottage (roses round the door) - perfect for couples looking for a base to explore Normandy & benefit from peace, quiet and privacy...a child free zone.
3 star classification awarded to both units by Manche Tourisme we have all the safety measure installed to include smoke detectors etc as required by Ministry Tourism.
Set within the grounds of large country house set in 3 acres, both have separate entrances, secure parking and completely self contained... if you don't want to see us you don't!
We're 4 miles from Ste Mere Eglise & Carentan - 10 minutes from Utah Beach & in the heart of a National Park.
We've tried to think of everything! Free wifi, TV, free to view SKY TV, DVD player - masses of movies to include The Longest Day & Band of Brothers. Log wood burner, candles, bed made up with 100% Egyptian cotton crisp linen, plenty of towels, toweling bathrobes... guest soaps, loo rolls and cleaning products as well.
This is a child free zone... no traffic jams, stress and certainly none of the hustle and bustle of city living.
Utah Beach & Regional Park: Set in Normandy within Cotentin and Bessin Marshlands Regional Natural Park which covers 145,000 hectare with 144 villages and towns within the Park.
WW2 Utah Beach the Invasion beach, located less than 10 minutes from us, is a significantly important coastal protected area of 12,000 acres with the Beauguillot Bird Sanctuary 1,200 acres.
The area is stunning countryside and completely different each season. For example in the winter the marshlands flood to create a beautiful watery scenery with the big skies reflected, then in the summer it becomes pasture with cows peacefully grazing.
This coast being slightly wilder than the west coast is very unspoilt especially with the government owning vast tracts of the coast line to preserve the natural beauty.
This area in Normandy is also famous for it's horses with numerous stud farms and training stables.On Utah Beach world class Trotting Horses are trained everyday on the beach.
The beaches and seafood: There is something for everyone, bird watchers, beach lovers, gourmets, wine lovers, walkers, bike riders, horse riders, wind surfers, sand yachters, sailing, diving, horse racing, interest in the 2nd world war Normandy Landing Beaches, 101st Airborne or just generally exploring…the problem here is that there is too much to do!
Yet in the summer the beaches are paradise, miles and miles of golden sands a perfect spot for a peaceful read, a sun bathe or beach combing, shell fish gathering for your supper when the tide is out, it's safe to swim and it's not crowded. With the bird sanctuary on Utah Beach there is an amazing number of different species of sea birds and ducks If it is particularly quiet on the beach you may be able to spot the colony of seals.
Huge mussels and oysters beds with the produce destined for the finest restaurants and tables in Paris and other gourmet destinations – it is possible to purchase shellfish direct from the farm shops locally
Cycling & Walking & Invasion Beaches: We are set in the heart of the Normandy D Day Invasion beaches with WW2 Utah Beach 10 minutes away, Ste Mere Eglise & Carentan both 8 kms from us & as we are 2 minutes from N13 we are in an ideal location for easy access to go sight seeing, war tours etc.
Bayeux, Mont St Michel are just short drives away, it is even possible to go to Jersey for the day from here!
Animals - We're know as Arc de Noah here in our village! we have 2 Llamas, 3 Alpacas, 2 very friendly goats, 2 sheep, lots and lots of bantam & silkie chickens all at liberty, 1 goose, 3 young Jack Russell's that live for visitors plus Bella a rescue York-Chi weighing in at 3 kg! plus 8 rescue cats.
Cycling or walking holidays...1,000 km of trails for cycling with one of the 22km routes starting outside our gate!
If you like local produce then there are many farms open to the general public, where you can see the produce being made and buy some to take home. It's possible to have tours round the Camembert factories.
Do note though the cottage was built 300 or 400 years ago - the bedroom has limited head height as it is in the eaves., until June 2017 the bathroom is downstairs - we are currently working on installing a bathroom upstairs...but if you are above average height you may prefer the barn apartment with en-suite & super kingsize bed 6'x6'6" plus the roof terrace.
Please do not book here if you don't like:
Countryside noises: we are opposite the church - it has bells, there is a donkey in the next field and we have cockerels.
Cats : we have 8 rescue cats - 3 can be quite determined about visiting!
Dogs: we have 4 of them who adore visitors & want to say hello.
We were working & living just outside London before taking the decision to leave our careers take the plunge & move here to Normandy in 2001, we had no plans to start vacation rentals...it just sort of happened! For me it is the answer to my dreams as I had over 15 years in the Hotel & Catering Industry training as a Hotel Manager...I always yearned for my own hotel...so this is as good as it gets! 16 years later we are thoroughly enjoying running our business,we are passionate about this hidden area of France and offer more than just a vacation rental, we are more than happy to share with you where to go, what to see, how to get there, we've struck a deal with a local dealership to hire cars as there are no car hire companies locally - devised a WW2 tour which we will give you to do yourselves and we'll make reservations for you at restaurants. We have 3 rental vacation properties, the barn apartment & the cottage here at our little farm & a terrace house in the village of Sainte Marie du Mont the 1st village liberated (Band of Brothers) right opposite the church a 3 bedroom stone town house...
Here at the 'farm' we have 4 dogs, 8 cats, (all rescues), 2 Llamas, 3 Alpacas, 2 sheep, 2 goats, chickens & our old faithful goose now 13 years old... We like to think we do give great value, secure parking as many DVD's as you want, TV, dogs to play with, books to read and masses of tips re the area...I knit, embroider, Mike is a petrol head and also has other great interests apart from cars & the war!
Tansy Forster purchased this cottage in 2004
Our 1st farmhouse (on the west coast of the peninsula) was a renovation project taking 2 years and was a lovely house when finished, however as it was very isolated we felt no part of a community, we were drawn to the this side of the peninsula with the history and activity around the Invasion Beaches & National Park...we found Ferme de l'Eglise in 2003 and adored that it was in the heart of a village, yet you only had to go round the corner to see the house backs onto it's own fields... best of both worlds...village & countryside!
The location is amazing, 4 miles in 1 direction to Carentan, 4 miles the other to, Ste Mere Eglise, 10 minutes to Utah Beach, 4 miles to a mainline station with trains direct to Paris, our village is on a direct road to a junction onto the N13, we're 30 minutes from Cherbourg, 40 from Bayeux & an hour from Caen...the countryside is simply stunning with glorious coastlines and the wonderful marshes all around us that in the summer have world class horses grazing and in the winter create the most beautiful flooded areas as far as the eye can see. An area of outstanding natural beauty with Normandy having the most Chateaux per square mile in the whole of France...an unspoilt area with something for everyone!
Thank you Mike and Tansy ! We had such a great stay in the cottage over New Year. This trip really made us realise how much we love Normandy, we'll def be back !
NOTE!! NO check in after 6 pm - we are totally flexible for arrival & departure days EXCEPT SUNDAY...this rural part of France does not have Sunday Trading ...there are NO shops open except for a few butchers & bakers...
Please try not travel on a Saturday in the summer months.
Prices are inclusive of everything including the dishwasher tablets!
Arriving in Houesville we found a homelike, complete furnished Cottage, which was arranged with a passion for details. There is a comfortable living room, a lovely bedroom under the roof, an absolutely complete equipped citchen with a dining table and a newly build bathroom which gave us a wellness-feeling.
At the back side of the Cottage there is a terrace with table, seats and sunloungers and a beatiful view on a pond and the big garden, which is enlived by various animals (chicken, cats, frogs, dogs, etc.) - it's an idyll!
Houesville is well located (direct connection to motorway N13) to discover the Cotentin peninsula with their varied offers of nature, culture, history and recreation.
What made this holidays absolutely perfect were the pretty nice hosts Tansy and Mike who were attentively in every way and made us feel good from the very first second.
Thank you very much! Judith & Ferry

Tansy and Mike are helpful, knowledgeable hosts. Ferme d'Eglise is a charming cottage in the Normandy countryside of the Manche area.
We enjoyed getting lost, having adventures and discovering lots of, off the beaten track locations , as well as following Tansy's terrific guide to the D day landing sites and her restaurant recommendation.
This was our first trip from the states to overseas and we experienced the ultimate vacation!
Have you ever met someone and just knew from the start that you had friends for life? We did just this when we booked this beautiful cottage. Tansy was so helpful right from the start of our reservation until we departed on our last day. If we had questions ( and we did) she was prompt in getting back to us. She gave us a lot of great advice, but let us do what we felt was best without question. She definitely made our vacation seamless!
Our cottage was well appointed and we didn't need for anything. I can't even say how comfortable the bed was! We slept so soundly every night. The pups and cats would come and go as they pleased ( with our permission of course) and that was just fine for us since we had left our dog with friends and were missing him.
Tansy gave us maps and so many hints about the locals, which all came in handy.
Our trip was made complete when we were invited to partake in the festivities on the first day of the Tour de France. The riders were coming right in front of one of the homes that Tansy and Mike rent, and on that day we were introduced to nine of their closest friends and family. We were welcomed into their circle and everyone was so attentive to us and our wants and needs! It was so special, and we've got memories that we'll cherish forever!
We'll definitely be going back! ( I want to go now!)
Thank you Tansy and Mike for a memorable trip!
We had a lovely week in this cottage in the beautiful country side of Normandy, even though it was a very busy week, it was so relaxing. The cottage is so comfortable and is equipped with everything you could possibly need for a thorally enjoyable holiday. Mike and Tansy we're brilliant hosts, very knowledgeable and helpful with information about things to do around this beautiful area, and with the information they emailed before our trip was very helpful.
I can't go without mentioning all the animals on the farm, it was lovely to watch them all, and the dogs and cats we're real characters, especially Madge and her tennis ball,
We have just returned from a 14 night stay at this property we knew what to expect from the valuable information provided by the owners prior to our arrival months before by the fabulous newsletter provided.
The cottage had everything you needed linen provided,WiFi,DVD's upon request hundreds to choose from, Kitchen utensils, Pans, Frying Pans, Plates, Knives, Forks, Kitchen Knives for bread and meat and fruit. Microwave, Gas Cooker 4 hobs, Built in Oven, Walk in Shower complete with bath towels, Hand Towels, Dressing Gowns, Hair dryers and shampoo's and shaving foams and toilet rolls all for the 14 night stay.
There is a conservatory to sit in and eat your meals which leads out onto the garden where you have a gazebo fully enclosed from rain if there is the odd shower. At the side of this is a brick built bar b que for those who like outside dining. The property has ample space in the Lounge area, Kitchen area, Bathroom and Conservatory, the bedroom is in the roof space, the bed is so comfy you could sleep all day.
This property is for all animal lovers there are three wonderful Jack Russell dogs for you to fall in love with, there are Chickens, Llama's, Alpaca's, Goats, Sheep, Cats, a huge lovable Kuna Kuna Pig a Goose and a Donkey, all of which will entertain you with their individual character.
If this is not enough for you to relax and chill there are the fabulous owners Mike and Tansy who will guide you and assist you in anyway they can, we were given a fabulous introduction to the property and the area in which we told them we wanted to visit. If you have a real interest in D-Day you will learn so much, if you are there to enjoy Normandy Tansy can inform you of all the good places to go and the bits of local advice that get you ahead of the game.
The location is in a beautiful farming village with stunning walks all around the area, if you wish there is always the possibly of walking with Ferdinand the Llama who Tansy often walks around the village, Carentan is literally 5 minutes away from the house with Utah and Museums around 10 to 15 minutes away, and the location is very close to the N13 which will take you in any direction you wish to travel.
You will fall in love with the property, the animals and the owners, if you don't then this was not the place for you in the first place.
We fell in love with the property,animals,and the owners.
Will we go back - You bet your life we will.
A great week spent in the heart of Normandy, visiting WW2 Landing Beaches, Museums and Memorials. Also relaxing at beautiful fishing harbours, empty beaches and Norman towns and villages.
The Gite was superb, very comfortable and provided with everything you could possibly imagine to make your stay comfortable.
For us, the icing on the cake was the attention of the dogs and cats throughout the week, especially Madge and her tennis ball.
This isn't the cheapest Gite to hire but, as they say, you get what you pay for!
Thanks to Tansy and Mike for making us feel so welcome. We really do hope we can visit again in the future, hopefully with the Midget next time :)

Another day, another new graphics card. At least that's what it feels like, with both ATI and nVidia constantly refreshing their line-ups in their bid to outdo each other. Just recently nVidia has brought out the 6600 series, while ATI has countered with the X700. Indeed, just today nVidia has announced its latest offering, the 6200 Turbo Chache. Although the 6200 Turbo Chache is a low-end part aimed at system integrators, the ATI reference board we are looking at today is attacking nVidia's high-end GeForce 6800 line-up.
The X800 XL, codenamed the R430, is a refresh of the R423, more commonly known as the Radeon X800 XT. The X800 XL features the same 16-pipeline architecture of the XT, and the same 256MB of GDDR3 memory running at 500MHz (1GHz effective). The main difference is that the X800 XL is based on a 0.11 micron manufacturing process. In combination with its low-k dialectric technique, used to improve the insulation between processor circuits, the heat output at a given voltage is reduced. The usual benefit for manufacturers is that they can increase the GPU clocks. The X800 XL VPU however, is actually clocked lower that the X800 XT, at 400MHz versus 520MHz, with the new potantial for increased clocks reserved for the 'super high-end' X850 cards.
Aside from increased clock speeds, the maturation of the manufacturing process means that ATI can now produce 16-pipeline cards at a much lower cost as whatever ATI claims, it was caught short by nVidia's 16-pipeline 6800 Ultra, as the shortage of XT and Platinum Edition X800's proved.
In a product positioning graph supplied by ATI, the X800 XL plugs a gap between the X800 XT and the new X850 cards. The X800 XL is clearly gunning for the enthusiast gamer who wants the high end performance that a 16-pipeline card offers but has an eye on the budget. In fact, this is exactly the approach that nVidia took with the GeForce 6800 GT, which eased off on the GPU clock speed to deliver most of the performance of the 6800 Ultra without the sky high cost. Users looking to upgrade AGP based rigs though will be disappointed though, as at this stage at least, the X800 XL is a PCI Express only part.
The next advantage of the 0.11 micron process is that not only is the X800 XL a one slot solution, but it also does without an external power connector, with its power needs comfortably handled by the 75 Watts delivered over the PCI Express bus. Yes, this is a graphics card with genuine high-end credentials, which you can fit into any new machine, with no extra power. Hey, isn't this how graphics cards used to be? It makes me nostalgic thinking about it.
As you can see from the pictures, the X800 XL reference card makes do with just the copper based heatsink and blower first used on the Radeon 9800 XT. The rear of the card sports a DVI and D-Sub connector and an S-Video output.
For testing, we slotted the card into our graphics card test rig, which boasts an Intel Pentium 4 Extreme Edition CPU running at 3.46GHz, an Intel 925XE motherboard running a 1066MHz FSB and 1GB of Crucial Ballistix DDR2 memory. To give it some worthy opposition we also retested a reference nVidia GeForce 6800 GT card. This was useful as Half-Life 2 and Doom 3 were not out when we first looked at the GT.
Getting straight to the heart of the matter we start with the blockbuster Half-Life 2. We tested initially with Catalyst driver 4.11, only for version 4.12 to pop-up, right after we'd completed testing. While driver revisions are of course, a 'good thing', it wasn't the timeliest from our point of view. As ATI claimed that 4.12 contained specific performance improvements for Half-Life 2, we ran our tests for that game, again from scratch, and we've included both in our graphs on the last page.

Jumping from main panel to sub-panel
3 Attachment(s)
Hello friends,
New to DYI forum.
I built my house and we now live in it. What an accomplishment. Now I need more power in my garage. When I built it I installed 200A sub-panel for the house and a 125A sub-panel for the garage. The main is 400A. I planned on setting up shop in the garage and now it is time and I need more power than I thought.
I have an electrical question so here it goes.
The 400A panel I installed has 2 200A breakers. (I attached pictures) In picture 1 you see both 200A breakers. The right side breaker is power to the sub-panel for the house. The breaker on the left is for other stuff like the well pump and garage power. I have a 125A sub-panel in the garage, but I need 125A service to run a phase converter. As you can see in picture 2 there are breakers which one of them is a 125A breaker that feed the 125A sub-panel in the garage, picture 3. Not enough power for the converter and wall outlets.
What I want to do is replace the aluminum 125A feed with 2-O copper. I am thinking to attach the 2-O wire with split nuts to jump from the leads going from the 200A breaker to the switch panel and running it into the garage 125 panel. Not attaching to the 125 panel but through it to a junction box. From the junction box, running a lead to the converter and another lead back to the 125A sub-panel. This way I have enough power to run the converter and still have power in the garage outlets.
I am looking for comments, safety concerns and suggestions. I do want to keep my costs down for obvious reasons.
Do you see all the spare slots in your service panel? Left side. Use two slots for another 125 amp breaker and run it to a new larger sub panel in the garage, or run it to a disconnect at the converter.
Do not splice anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You have enormous capability with a 400 amp service.
Agreed! A second feeder and sub panel in the garage would be the way to go.
Thanks guys... I was thinking about this 2nd feeder option but I don't know if I can get all those wires through a 2" conduit.
Not going to happen, your only allowed 1 feeder per structure. I dont know if the garage is attatched to the house or not, but if it is, its already in violation, if its seperate then its good for now,(other than the missing required disconnect :icon_rolleyes:) but he cannot just run a 2nd feeder to the building.
I see some serious issues already.
[EDIT] is the garage attatched to the structure?
I'm unaware of the "one feeder per structure" rule. I'll have to look that one up for sure!
I've seen hundreds of setups in a number of cities in this area that have 400 amp services and a number of subpanels throughout the house...And subsequently a number of feeders off of the main disconnecting means. Are you telling me they're wrong?
What I'm saying is that the service in the OP's picture is a pedestal service, so if you take a look at 225.30, each structure can only be served by one feeder, anything leaving that pedestal service is a feeder.
If that meter was attached to the house along with the garage then its all good.
Whats with all the orange cord hardwired into the bottom of the panel? Is that short black cord for an RV outlet? Also, where is the service neutral connected at? I see neutrals for the garage panel and the feed to the house, but no main neutral. Is this relying on the panel ground as the service neutral? All I see going into the meter side is the 2 heavy wires at the top of the panel, am I missing something here?
Also, I don't believe you will be able to find a 200 amp breaker that will plug into that panel as a "branch circuit". You might be able to find one as large as 150 amps, but in a quick search all I could find was 100 amp double pole.
The biggest breaker you can put on there is 125A so you are kind of screwed.
Check Cutler Hammer for a lug kit that clips on to the bus like a breaker would. You would have to then of course run 3/0 copper to the garage panel.
I found a ebay seller selling a lot of 6 3 "Pole Lug Block", rated for 225 amps. Obviously you wouldn't need 6 of them, but this ebay link has some very good pictures of the lug block kit.
I am sure you can find it in a 200 amp 2 pole version, I just found this with a quick search online.
The orange cords are lines I wired in when I was building and used them for extension cords. They also were for the washer, dryer and refrigerator that we used in the shipping container that you don't see in the picture. The black one hanging is an RV plug for the trailer we lived in while building the house. They are no longer used and need to be removed.
The garage is attached and as for 2 feeders into 1 structure, I passed my electrical inspection with both feeder and 2 sub-panels. My power company will not bring a 3phase line into a residential building.
220/221 is correct, it runs through to the other side.
Can I run 2 feeder threw the same conduit to power 2 different sub-panels? If I remember correctly someone told me awhile ago that you can't. This is the main reason why I was thinking about splicing into the main feeder to the breaker bus. If I can get a 2pole 200A breaker this would solve my problem.
2 pole 200A breaker link
I found this breaker. How would I know if it would fit my breaker bus?
Also is it not advisable to connect a 200A feeder to a 125A sub-panel?

Would you like to learn about how weather is forecast and why weather works the way it does? Well today's site can teach you all about it in just eight lessons.
Navigation is easy! They start you right off in the first lesson, which is an introduction. From there, you can either click the link beside the word Next to head onto lesson two or you can click Lesson Two from the left side menu. As you go through the lessons, be sure to pay attention so you can answer the questions in Lesson Nine: Review.
Lesson One introduces you to what radar is, when doppler radar was created, and gives you few interesting facts to whet your appetite for more knowledge.
Lesson Two covers how radar works in detail with two great examples (Beam Me Up and Volume Coverage Patterns: Turn It Up) that allow you to further explore the topic.
Lesson Three examines how the National Weather Service (NWS) Radar functions on the web.
Lesson Four takes a look at NWS Radar images and how to analyze them with several in-depth examples for you to check out.
Lesson Five focuses on a different type of radar called RIDGE (Radar Integrated Display with Geospatial Elements) and what role it plays in the NWS forecasts.
Lesson Six hones in further on RIDGE images and how they are downloaded for examination.
Lesson Seven explains how the RIDGE images are imported in GIS software.
Lesson Eight is a very handy FAQ section where you can find answers to a lot of the questions you may have thought up while exploring the previous seven lessons.
Lesson Nine is a quiz that tests your knowledge of the subject you just thoroughly explored.

Wisdom & Wonder: Read an Excerpt
Now Featured in the Patheos Book Club
Wisdom & Wonder
Common Grace in Science and Art
By Abraham Kuyper
Book Excerpt: Chapter 1
"The advantage of knowledge is that wisdom preserves the life of him who has it."
Ecclesiastes 7:12b
If we contrast between the life of the state and society, then science definitely belongs to the sphere of societal life. Nevertheless this does not mitigate the fact that, as far as common grace is concerned, it could not have been included in our discussions concerning society. For whatever sets in motion societal activity originates in the intimate communal living of families in the same village or hamlet, in the same region or country. By contrast, although science as well as art must find the atmosphere for flourishing within that common life in society, nevertheless both derive their impulse from something that lies outside of society, from a unique motive. For this reason, science as well as art require a separate treatment, and it is with the discussion of both of these that our exposition of common grace will conclude.
First, then, let us emphasize the independent character of science. Before everything else it must be understood that science is a matter that stands on its own and may not be encumbered with any external chains. For that reason, if in its early stages science should still lack the strength to stand on its own legs it can progress for a time being tied to the apron strings of others. Similarly, the free citizen living in the free state, who later would be keenly focused on independence, is, as a young child, initially carried by its nursemaid and learns to walk by holding on to her apron strings.
In this connection, people have shown how historically science could not have assumed its role initially without the help of the government and the church. Nevertheless, this observation supplies no proof at all against the independent character that belongs to science.
In every form of life, two stages may be distinguished. First is the stage of emergence followed by gradual growth, which continues until adulthood is reached. Only then does the second stage occur, when full-grown life is self-sufficient. This is why the gardener places a stick alongside a young plant and ties that plant to the stick. When, thanks to this support, the plant achieves full growth and is sufficiently rooted to be able to stand on its own strength, then the stick is removed and the plant stands by itself.
And that is how it went with science. At any rate, in Northern Europe, science was planted and initially supported by the Christian church. Furthermore, science could have not survived without the support of the government. Nowadays, by contrast, science has become independent to the extent that it would far rather attempt to dominate church and state than continue being submissive to the domination of church and state. This independence belongs to science, and is not at all being usurped by science.
Science has not demanded such independence in overconfidence, but possesses this independence by divine design. So much so, that science neglects its divine calling if she permits herself again to become a servant of the state or the church. Science is not a branch growing from the trunk of government service, and even less a branch that grows from the root of the church. Science possesses its own root, and science rests on this root. From this trunk that proceeds from this unique root, science must grow its branches and bear its fruit. As the well-known synodical report expressed it with such complete accuracy, science is "a unique creature of God," with its own principle of life, created to develop in conformity with that principle of life, that is, to develop in freedom.

One of several 2015 recruits in attendance to see the Volunteers beat then-No. 9 South Carolina 23-21 on Saturday was FOX Sports and Scout three-star offensive tackle Mason Veal.
The Charlotte, N.C. native thoroughly enjoyed his special visit to Rocky Top.
"It was a great experience to be here and see a game like this in my first visit to Knoxville," Veal told InsideTennessee. "The atmosphere was incredible. It was loud the entire game and we didn't stop cheering in the recruiting section behind the end zone. Everybody was in it the entire game. It was awesome to be a part of a strong 95,000 fans.
"I will definitely keep looking at Tennessee and talking to the coaches. It was a great weekend and awesome game." So far into his recruitment the 6-foot-5, 288-pounder listed four schools that are in the lead: Clemson, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee.
"Obviously I want to stay close to home, but that isn't the only factor that will go into my final decision," the junior blocker said. "I want a place where the whole community, like Tennessee, is all around a football team and is a strong family."
Like many other recruits and commitments he can see the strides that the Tennessee football program is making on becoming relevant in the national picture once again.
"It's definitely a big influence when you see the recruiting classes that Tennessee is building right now for not just next year but further along also," he said. "You can tell they are building for the future and that it isn't just a one-year deal. They are going to keep getting better and better."
On a week when Tennessee students were on fall break he was also impressed with the turnout in Neyland Stadium.
"Butch (Jones) is really focused on getting the fans in and being a part of the big picture," Veal said. "It helps bring out fans when facing a team as big as South Carolina, too."
While he doesn't have it planned to see another Vols game this season he believes he may pick up one more visit after making his last scheduled trip to the Florida-South Carolina game on Nov. 16.
His focus for the rest of his junior year playing for the Ardrey Kelly Knights (4-4) will be to help his team into the NCHSAA state playoffs and continuing to improve his presence up front.
"I want to keep pushing through this season and doing whatever I can to help my team win and go as far as possible," he said. "I'm doing pretty well this season but have room for improvement. My pass blocking is really solid and once I get my hands on somebody they are not getting by."
Strength will be no problem for Veal at the next level it seems, as he told IT that he maxes out on the bench press at 405 pounds and squats 505 pounds.

Dear Lucy,
On Friday I will begin a much anticipated open-ended adult English class in Antananarivo, Madagascar. The proficiency of English will be beginning level and the focus will be conversation. I am, for the most part, a first-time volunteer teacher without credentials and the students who are attending are volunteering to attend the class also.The students are security guards, gardeners and custodians employed by the American School and wish to better communicate with the community both on campus and at the various houses and villas they guard 24/7. I have been doing a lot of prep work to get ready, yet I need specific directions on exactly what to teach and how. I will have a classroom to use, internet access both at home and at school, an Oxford Picture Dictionary, (Spanish-English) and three McGraw Hill Publications (grammar, vocabulary and verbs) to get me started. Any suggestions will be extremely appreciated. My objective is for the session to be student driven and teach what they want to learn. Thank you for reading my request.

There is a land of the living and a land of the dead and the bridge is love, the only survival, the only meaning. (The Bridge of San Luis Rey)
Thornton Wilder, three-time winner of the Pulitzer Prize, led a kaleidoscopic life as a novelist, playwright, essayist, teacher, and actor (in some of his own plays). Endowed from an early age with an anthropologist's curiosity and awareness of his surroundings, Wilder cultivated a preoccupation with "those things that repeat and repeat and repeat in the lives of millions." His works, often infused with classical elements and Yiddish farce, are marked, above all, by their polished and didactic prose and by the writer's great faith in the endurance of humanity. Below are 10 quotes to mark what would have been the 115th birthday of one of the greatest contributors to American drama and literature.

Braehmer defeats Gutknecht in WBO eliminator
By Karl Freitag
Photo: Photo Wende
In a very good action fight, former WBO light heavyweight world champion and German "100 Year Talent" Juergen Braehmer (39-2, 30 KOs) dethroned European light heavyweight titleholder Eduard "Eddy" Gutknecht (24-2, 9 KOs) by unanimous decision on Saturday night at the Max Schmeling Halle in Berlin, Germany. Gutknecht was very aggressive against the big punching Braehmer, but Braehmer landed the sharper shots. Braehmer cut over the right eye in round four and Gutknecht did well in rounds five and six, but Braehmer was back in command in the seventh. Gutknecht was deducted a point in round nine by referee Terry O'Connor for rough housing tactics, and both fought well down the stretch. Braehmer was clearly playing for another point deduction in the last round but O'Connor didn't bite. Scores were 114-113, 116-111, 117-110. Fightnews had it 115-112 for Braehmer.
Braehmer, who never lost his world title in the ring, will now challenge for his old belt against reigning WBO champion Nathan Cleverly or Cleverly's next opponent Robin Krasniqi.
"It was a very tough fight against Eddy. I did manage to take advantage of most of my strengths, but it was difficult for me to keep focus for the whole duration of the fight," said Braehmer. "I haven't seen such an exciting fight in Germany for years. I believe that everybody left as a winner today."
Gutknecht stated, "I can't complain, I should have knocked him out. I had the chance to. In the end I was too focused on the harder punches and forgot about the easy ones."
* * *
Unbeaten light heavyweight Robert Woge (11-0, 10 KOs) broke open a tough fight with an eleventh round TKO over Hakim Zoulikha (18-4, 9 KOs) to claim the vacant IBF Intercontinental title. Woge dropped Zoulikha, who beat the count but was still wobbly. Zoulikha then took a knee and the fight was waved off by referee Randy Neumann. Zoulikha complained to to avail. Time was 2:25.
Light heavyweight Dustin Dirks (27-0, 20 KOs) scored a third round TKO over Christian Cruz (12-14-1, 10 KOs). Cruz, from Sacramento, California, has now lost ten straight.
Super middleweight Dominik Britsch (27-1-1, 9 KOs) outpointed Luis Crespo (8-4-1, 4 KOs) over eight by scores of 78-72, 78-73, 79-72.

May 30, 2010
PITTSBURGH - Pitt catcher Cory Brownsten and designated hitter Kevan Smith have been named to the Big East Baseball All-Tournament team, announced Sunday in Clearwater, Fla.
Brownsten (Lockport, N.Y./Monroe CC) batted .417 in the tournament, including an outstanding performance behind the plate. The senior was 5-for-12 with two runs scored and three RBI.
Smith (Cranberry, Pa./Seneca Valley) had possibly the best showing offensively throughout the tournament, batting an impressive .750 (9-for-12) with three runs and two RBI, including two doubles.
The Panthers are now awaiting their fate in the NCAA Championship as the selection show will air Monday at 12:30 p.m. on ESPN.
"I believe if the committee looks at the full scope of our season and the tremendous year that we did have, I feel strongly that we will continue our season," Pitt head coach Joe Jordano said.
"In any case, I am extremely proud of our team, not only of the individual accomplishments but also of our team accomplishments," Jordano continued. "We will look back upon this season with great regard and it is a tremendous way to transition into our new facility and a new phase of Panther baseball."
Pitt is enjoying possibly its most successful season in school history as they currently hold a 38-18 overall record. Pitt's 18 league wins is the most in school history, including a three-game sweep over 2010 Big East Tournament Champion St. John's and a 2-1 series win over regular season champion Louisville, who was ranked No. 7 in the nation at the time.
The Panthers been referred to as the most dangerous lineup in the nation as they lead the country with a .363 batting average entering postseason play. In addition, the Panthers are ranked in the top 15 in numerous categories including hits, runs scored and fielding percentage.
Big East Player of the Year and Pitt third baseman/RHP Joe Leonard, batted over .450 for a majority of the 2010 season earning recognition as one of the top players in the nation by being named a semifinalist for the Dick Howser Trophy, as well as a member of the watch list for the John Olerud Two-Way Player of the Year Award.
In addition to Leonard's Player of the Year honor, six other Pitt players were named to All-Big East teams, which is a school record. Pitchers Corey Baker and Matt Iannazzo each reached the 10-win mark on the year, which made Pitt the lone team in the nation to boast two 10-win pitchers in the nation, prior to entering the postseason.
Pitt has recorded an impressive 18-9 road record, and is 9-4 in neutral-site games. In the strongest year ever for the Big East, the Panthers finished third in the regular season, holding a winning record, or a series split with each of the top four finishers.

Surviving the NICU: with your marriage
Eviction Number Three
|Attempting to hold it together for photos
My sister was my "doula" and my husband was also there. When we got there we realized we had not taken any "bump" pictures, so we took some quickly.
We went in and found out they had given away my room because they expected us to arrive at 8am, while my Dr had told us to arrive at anytime.. I immediately wanted to leave. The nurse seemed a bit angry that we were "late", my sister stepped out of the room where she went to the nurses station and politely (from what I was told) and explained that we were a hospital family and I really did not want to be having the section, but was not given a choice in the matter.
We waited in the prep room, next to a woman in actual labor with the nurse and my sister telling jokes to keep my mind off of it. We kept being told "a few more minutes" "uh oh.. someone got pushed ahead" so I didn't actually go back until 3. That gave us enough time for them to eat and my sister to braid my hair since I knew it would be a little while until I would be able to shower.
We went over my birth plan (I used this one as a starting point and adjusted it for us) and they assured us that they would attempt to accommodate our wishes. I swear they thought I was the crazy natural mama up for the section, but after my sister's talk with the nurses they were all really kind to us, almost pitying.
When I finally went back I was scared and worried the entire time. I really hate getting epidurals... the cold room, the pain, the worry that if they slip up I could be paralyzed, spinal headaches... etc. Then I was staring at the same ceiling tiles as I was at Lil'K's delivery and thinking that if that Dr hadn't been an idiot then I wouldn't be forced to do this section..
|Skin-to-Skin in the OR
She was cleaned up and hubby got to trim the cord, which was actually a first for us. He stayed with her until she was reunited with me in the room. I of course was numb and unable to move my legs for many hours. I remember them doing the final clean up and after they removed the curtian being shocked that my legs weren't straight like I thought they were. When I was back in the room my hubby was able to stay with me, and my parents brought Lil'C and Lil'K to meet their new baby sister, Baby K. They both wanted to climb on my lap and cuddle but we of course had to be careful since I couldn't move or feel if they were hurting me.

|Baby wearing less than 24hours after Section.
The biggest worry I had was going home, and being home most of the day by myself with 3 little ones while healing from the surgery. Due to Lil'K's affinity for flopping, that did become a worry. She landed on me once so hard that I screamed and my sister had to pull her off. I was in tears it hurt so bad.. and I was on pain meds at the time.
|At 5Lb 15oz She was my largest baby.
|She has gotten much bigger in 6 months
My post-pain is worse now as well. My scar is in almost constant pain along with my upper right thigh, there is also some numbing at the upper part of it (the pain goes around the edges of the numbing). It just all feels so unnecessary and a bit unfair to my girls and myself. So now I have had one necessary and life saving c-section, and two unnecessary ones.
Baby K is growing and is a very happy little person, for that I am blessed.

DIY O2 Tank transporter
It is a fairly simple thing to make. Hubby tweaked the design a few times, but now Lil'c barely uses O2 and we don't use it any more, which is why it is inside. We have used it in both a hatchback and a van.
The Supplies:
PVC pipe (slightly smaller than the tanks so it will grip)
3/4" plywood (measure from the floor to the top of the back of the backseat x width of the back of the backseat)
Extra strip of 3/4" plywood 4"x needed length (only under small bottles)
Tie-down straps (auto supplies)
Spray paint
The process:
Cut large plywood to size. Notice the notches in the bottom to allow the tie-down straps to wrap around the back of the seat and hold it in place.
Cut PVC pipe to length and then make ONE additional cut down the length which will allow the pipe to expand and grip the tanks.
Screw PVC to the board making sure the vertical cut is facing out.
Screw the strip of plywood under the PVC for the smaller tanks. This will give them something to rest on, otherwise they will slide right through. The large tanks will simply sit on the floor.
Spray paint for appearance. We went with black since we had it on hand, or you could try and match your vehicle's interior.
Fairly simple process :).
This allowed us to make use of our full trunk space while easily being able to trade out tanks. You could easily tell the empty from the full by the white caps. We kept the small tank in use in the transport bag with its valve on and a valve on whichever large tank was currently in use. This allowed us to carry 8 small tanks (notice only 7 slots) and 2 large tanks wherever we needed to go, including 2 4-day trips to see family 14 hours away! On those trips we also brought along the concentrator and used it as much as possible to save our tanks.
Although I will tell you, driving around with that many tanks in the back can make you nervous of other people's driving, but it is certainly better than them rolling around if you are carrying them anyway!
How many tanks have you had in your car at one time?

Oh My Fruitful Garden! was downstairs cooking, heard something stiring in my room, ran upstairs and I may have gotten one... my first one EVER! It's 'processing' right now, how long does that usually take? I so hope I got one, I've tried way too much to get one of these
BS. I was refreshing the page after the previous item had sold out. I couldn't have done it any faster and I still didn't get one. I'll never get a Bunnies Ogling Carrots

In the past that's come up and you still get the e-mail confirmation. Ultimately that will be the yes or no if it truely went through.
Bummer, they only sold 360 this time, and they played another trick, but it delayed the actual sale for just a little bit. Those quickest on their F5 keys must've scored the crap.
My order didn't even get to processing! It just flat out refused this time
Yesterday, I got to the very last page. Page did not reload, just sat there with the 'wait' icon running.
No Bunnies Ogling Carrots for me, Woot GYST!
Thank you for your purchase.
Your order number XXXXXXXX for 1 Barrel of Crops has been received by Woot on 4/26/2012!
I think this new method is back firing on Woot. At least when they did them all at once, people weren't as aggravated when they didn't get one. Now, after trying 4 times, I still haven't gotten one, mostly due to Woot's technical issues (page buffering, not handling PayPal correctly, etc).
Now, you've just got a whole chat room full of pissed off people.
I hope you're happy, Woot! :P
Yeah, I got the Buy IT button, but then it said there was a problem with my order, didn't say what it was. Hoping that message lied, although it probably didn't. Sigh.
So i got my third one yesterday and my wife just got her second one today!!! Total of 5 for my household!!!!
First bundle of carrots for this little lassie *thumbs up*

Can it be? Is the Dry Spell Over?
I have successfully bagged my second Bunnies Ogling Carrots in 6 years. I have missed more than I could possibly count due to server errors, and just plain slowness/not paying attention.
My first ever Barrel of Crops contained a Wine Refrigerator with a glass door and a digital thermostat. Also, one corner of it was completely caved in, but it was fully functional for at least 3 months.
Here's hoping this one contains a pallet of tron action figures!

One of the constants through the Cleveland Indians' run of five straight Central Division titles was a bullpen that could contain almost any fire.
The way general manager John Hart had it figured, if he couldn't land a dominant ace to anchor the rotation, he'd build the staff from the back end forward. From Jose Mesa and Mike Jackson, to Eric Plunk and Paul Shuey, the Indians' bullpen has been stocked with power arms that are effective at lighting up radar guns, if not retiring major league hitters.
But when Cleveland's pitching staff went kablooey last year, leading to a major-league record 32 pitchers being used, not even the bullpen could escape the aftershocks.
"It was definitely a trying situation last season," said Shuey, who missed a month following surgery in late May for a torn labrum in his right hip. "At times you'd go to the bullpen and see different faces every day."
Of course Shuey's exaggerating, but only slightly. The Indians trotted out 18 different relievers over the course of the season.
Another sign of the Indians' bullpen problems occurred in late July. After opening the season as the closer, Steve Karsay was reassigned to setup duty following the club's acquisition of Bob Wickman from Milwaukee at the trading deadline. Contending teams usually don't change closers at midseason, but Hart's hand was forced thanks to the unreliability of those pitchers performing in front of Karsay.
"It's important to have guys settled into roles in a bullpen," Indians manager Charlie Manuel said. "When you have that, people know what their jobs are and what's expected of them. We had so many injuries last season it was hard to have anyone stay in the same role."
The problems began when Shuey and Ricardo Rincon went on the disabled list within four days of one another on May 17. Shuey was out until late June, but Rincon didn't return until August 22 following surgery to remove bone spurs from his elbow.
Without their primary left-handed setup man, the Indians held open auditions for much of the summer. Cameron Cairncross, Andrew Lorraine, Tom Martin, Mark Watson, Chris Haney, Mike Mohler and Alan Newman all tried to fill Rincon's role, meeting with only limited success.
This season, roles are more settled in the Indians' bullpen.
Wickman is the unquestioned closer and appears primed for a big year in anticipation of his impending free agency. While not the classic, power closer that other teams employ, Wickman keeps the ball down and in the park. He allowed just one homer in 68 2/3 innings last season, and his sinking fastball results in numerous ground balls, which Cleveland's three Gold Glove infielders (Omar Vizquel, Roberto Alomar and Travis Fryman) usually gobble up.
"Wick's not going to blow people away, but he's a guy that understands what a closer needs to do to be successful," Manuel said. "He doesn't try to pitch outside his capabilities. With the defense we have behind him, he knows he's OK if he just gets ground balls."
Shuey, he of the three major league out pitches, and Rincon will handle the late inning setup duty. For as much as he's maligned sometimes, Shuey is one of the hardest relievers in the American League to hit. Last season, hitters had a .233 average against Shuey with runners in scoring position, and hit just .179 with runners in scoring position and two outs. For his career, Shuey has limited batters to a .238 average.
Rincon will forever be tagged as the "player acquired for Brian Giles" but he nonetheless put together a solid season in 2000, even with his elbow costing him three months. Rincon allowed just one of his 25 inherited runners to score, and in his Indians' career he's stranded 67 of 73 inherited runners. Lefthanders hit just .216 with no homers off Rincon last season.
Rincon won't get any help, at least not immediately, because he's the lone southpaw reliever expected to break camp with the club. Cleveland signed veteran Scott Radinsky in the offseason, but he's rehabbing from "Tommy John" surgery last June. He could possibly contribute during the second half.
Amid all the injuries, veteran Steve Reed continued to do a steady job in the middle relief role. The 35-year-old righthander pitched 56 innings, allowing 58 hits and 21 walks. Reed struck out 39 and registered a 4.34 ERA.
One of the most heated battles during the spring was waged to replace Karsay as a late-inning setup man. David Riske, Sean DePaula, Justin Speier and Roy Smith were competing for at most two spots, depending on whether the club decided to keep 11 or 12 pitchers.
Speier was one of the pleasant surprises last season, going 5-2 with a 3.29 ERA and 69 strikeouts in 68 1/3 innings. Speier struggled mightily at times this spring, leaving the door open for others.
DePaula and Riske tried to take advantage after enduring injury plagued seasons a year ago. Riske had surgery last May for a bulging disc in his back and pitched just seven innings. He's made a full recovery and had an impressive spring, allowing 10 hits and striking out nine in his first nine innings of work. DePaula, attempting to work his way back after various elbow ailments last season, wasn't as sharp this spring. The 27-year-old had a 7.20 ERA in his first five appearances.
Smith was the revelation of March, considering how the 6-foot-7 sidearmer nearly gave up baseball to become a police officer before last season. The Indians signed him, though, and he proceeded to go 7-3 with 95 strikeouts in 100 innings between Kinston and Akron. He kept it up this spring, fanning 13 batters and allowing just six hits in his first 12 1/3 innings of work. Saturday, Smith was reassigned to the minor league camp, while Riske was sent to Buffalo.
Although he's had a rocky month of March -- a 9.00 ERA, 21 hits and five homers allowed in just 13 innings -- veteran Willie Blair was a likely candidate to make the staff, but was given his release Saturday.

Prospective Students:
Current JHU Students:
Online Forms:
The Office of Student Financial Services is pleased to offer students web services as part of the institution wide implementation of SIS (Student Information System). SIS will enable students to:
If you are a prospective student (not currently enrolled at JHU), you will need to have an SIS ID in order to access your financial aid records. The SIS ID is a unique, 8 character, alpha numeric identifier that is assigned to all students. It will appear on letters and correspondence from this office.
If you are a current student, you will use your JHED LID and Password to access your record. Your JHED Hopkins ID (a unique 6 character identifier) will appear on letters and correspondence from this office.
Care should be taken to treat your SIS ID, JHED LID and JHED Hopkins ID as confidential.
1. What is an SIS ID?
The Johns Hopkins University is committed to safeguarding the privacy of students and their personal information. In an ongoing effort to eliminate Social Security Numbers from correspondence, the Office of Student Financial Services will use the SIS ID to communicate with you. This unique, 8 character, alpha numeric identifier is assigned to all new and existing students. The SIS ID will also be used to authenticate prospective students who are new to online services. Current JHU students will use their JHED LID and Password to access SIS.
2. How do I obtain my SIS ID?
Prospective undergraduate applicants who answered yes to the "Will you be applying for need-based aid?" question on the admissions application will receive instructions via E-mail from the Office of Student Financial Services.
Returning Undergraduates, Graduate and Part-Time students will use their JHED ID and password to access SIS.
3. Can you send me my SIS ID?
Send an E-mail to email@example.com, with the subject line "SIS ID". Provide the following data in the body of the E-mail:
Once we have confirmed your identity, we will send your SIS ID to the preferred E-mail address that we have on file.
4. What is a JHED LID and how do I get one?
A JHED login ID (or "LID") is a unique identifier for your information in the JHU Enterprise Directory. All students are automatically assigned a LID upon enrollment. You can use your LID to gain remote access to a number of JHU services, such as financial aid, billing and registration. It should not be confused with any barcodes on your various ID cards. If you don't know your login ID, please go to the JHED site at http://jhed.jhu.edu to look yourself up by name and do a "first-time login" to obtain a password.
5. May I register for classes or pay my bill?
At present, the SIS self-service function is used by the Office of Student Financial Services and the Office of Student Accounts. The Registrar and Admissions offices are in the process of adopting this standard. For now, enrolled students should continue to use the web services link (https://registration.jhu.edu/) to register for classes.
6. Why can't I access my financial aid awards?
Prospective student financial aid awards are not available online until after admission decision letters have been mailed. For Early Decision applicants, this occurs in mid December, and for Regular Decision applicants, in the first week of April. Returning Undergraduate, Graduate and Part-Time student awards are made available online in late June.
7. How do I find out if you received my forms?
Once you gain access to SIS, you will see a menu tab called "My Information". By clicking on this tab, SIS will display your "Requirements" screen. Example requirements include the FAFSA, tax returns, JHU applications, etc. Requirements that are not marked as complete or waived must be submitted in order to complete your application.
8. How do I view, accept or decline my financial aid?
When financial aid awards are made available online (see FAQ# 6), students will have access to a menu tab called "My Aid". The My Aid menu contains 3 sub menus :
9. Would you define financial aid status?
The financial aid office assigns every student a status. This value is used to track the progression of your file from application to disbursement. Definitions appear below:

Hat Trick
After feeling like I never finish anything, I finished 3 projects last Sunday.
1. Pumpkin Hat (rav link) done in the Turn a Square pattern that I love. I have knit three of these so far and just adore them. Both the kids have one (Little Dude has 2) and I'm knitting another for my mom (shhh... don't tell). The photo at right shows my sone wearing it, doing his best brooklyn tweed impersonation.
2. My Hourglass sweater. It's still blocking, and I don't have pictures, and I'm not 100% satisfied that the neckline is actually done, but I'm counting it!
3. Seven Lucky Snowflakes. During our fabulous October cold snap, I had a thought process that went something like this: I need a hat! Wait, even though I don't have an MLS, I constantly wear my hair in a bun, so I never wear hats. I need an earband. Where's my stash? Right, I have a box full of Palette, that'll work. Oooh, stitch dictionary! Snowflakes are soooo pretty, I could put them on an earband. Oh, if I make it reversible, it would be doubly warm, and could have a green side and a blue side.
Two weeks later, the snow is way gone and I've finally got an earband. Blocking and soaking wet, but an earband. Hopefully it snows again soon!
And, after having a hockey reference in the title, I can't pass this up... While I still love Canada, after last night, I no longer feel compelled to move there at the first opportunity! Go voters! And thank you, Mr. Obama, for giving us a country we feel like we might soon be able to be proud of again.

Soon dubu (tofu pots)
Soft Korean-style tofu is central to many dishes and especially delicious in a stewlike hot pot. This is pure comfort food in the form of a bubbling cauldron—assuming you take comfort in spices and lots of seafood. Crack the single raw egg into the pot and gently stir in.

The Discussion
Not an impressive presentation. Too much marketing not enough coding examples or explanations. Certainly not a level 3. Also seemed like the Borg, take it or leave it. Alarming the Facebook sharing of private data. No user removal of data. This rates a 0.
Seemed like a thorough overview. Looking forward to trying it all.
