Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
Don't EVER use iPod Battery Depot--Here's why! I HAD an iPod Nano until I sent it to them for battery replacement. Haven't seen it since. Paid for battery and service but all I got was some Auto-reply emails and then evasion, followed by the brushoff and no more responses. At one point they said their Tech had to replace the Motherboard in my Nano but as to where it is or what happened after that, who knows.
Can't get a reply to anything from them. It appears that after getting MY iPod Nano they decided it wasn't worthy of repair and vanquished it to circular file. Can't believe they have the #1 Website for 'Replacing' batteries because if you send yours to them you'll need to replace more than that when it disappears! Don't chance falling for using the first listing you see! Yes they have a great price and guarantee but what good is that after they have your money AND iPod? You lose all and they made quite a profit while providing Nothing in return! Total RIPOFF...

Locust bean gum powder is not a very familiar name, yet it is part of many of the products we use everyday. Understanding the history, benefits, health claims, and recommended daily allowance of this substance can help you make better decisions about what you eat and what you use.
Locust bean gum powder is made from the Carob tree. This tree is found mostly in the Mediterranean. The long pods that grow on the tree are used to make this gum. When the outer husk is taken off, another layer of the pod is exposed. This is where the gum comes from. It is dried, roasted and beat into a powder.
Locust Bean Gum Powder is found in many items that are eaten daily in the industrialized world. Some of these products are ice cream, frozen desserts, sauces, cream cheese, desserts gels, meat products, cheeses, pie filling, baked goods, soup bases, frozen batters, bread, breakfast cereals, flour, syrup, condiments, and salad dressings. The bean, when made into powder is sweet with a similar flavor to chocolate. It is used to sweeten different foods and as a chocolate substitute.
It is also used in non-edible products such as pet foods, mining products, paper making, and to thicken textiles. It is used in cosmetics and to enhance the flavor of cigarettes. Shoe polish and insecticides also have locust bean gum powder as an additive. Obviously, it is a very valuable commodity in the industrialized world.
Since locust bean gum powder is used pervasively in the industrialized world, it may seem like a new discovery, but in fact it is very old. Archeology shows that carob trees and their pods grew in Israel in 4000 B.C. The locust bean was sometimes referred to as the Egyptian fig and was recorded in the writings of Theophratus in 4 B.C.
The Egyptians used the gum to prepare bodies for mummification. Some of the left over parts of the locust bean have been found in Egyptian tombs. Archeologists also discovered remnants of the locust bean dating back to 79 AD in Pompeii.
One benefit of locust bean gum powder is its ability to enhance the texture of foods. For example, ice cream is made smoother, is more flavor consistent, and is less melt resistant thanks to locust bean gum powder.
Adding locust bean gum powder to a food product increases the dietary fiber without increasing the calories. Because of this, it has helped develop great tasting diet or reduced calorie food. The presence of this substance in diet foods helps them maintain their original flavor. The presence of this substance in foods also increases the swelling of food once in the stomach. This helps to keep you fuller longer. It is considered a natural appetite suppressant.
The technology used to add locust bean gum powder to food is very economical. Combine the cost efficiency with the taste consistency and the result is satisfied producers and consumers.
An increasing number of people are finding out they are allergic to or cannot tolerate gluten. Locust bean gum powder in foods is a great alternative to gluten. It is non-allergenic and safe.
Locust bean gum powder is a low-fat powder. When it is added to foods, it can decrease the fat and increase the fiber making it a healthy alternative to high fat low fiber foods.
The powder can also be used as a caffeine free coffee substitute. Less caffeine is good for the body. With its natural appetite suppressant, it can aid in weight loss and lower the often devastating affects of obesity.
Locust bean gum powder also has medicinal value. It has been found to reduce diarrhea, especially in infants. It can help reduce coughing as well. It has been used in the treatment of diabetes by reducing insulin levels in the body. It can also be made into sugar free, starch free flour for diabetics. Locust bean gum powder can be used in the treatment of hyperlipidaemia (high cholesterol) for some of the same reasons it helps aid in the treatment of diabetes.
Studies done on the consumption of locust bean gum powder have found that a recommended daily allowance is not necessary. This is based on biochemical, toxicological, and other data collected in testing. It is safe and acceptable to be used in food and does not show any hazards to health.
In conclusion, locust bean gum powder is safe and healthy when added to food and very useful in developing products used everyday. As with many high quality nutritional supplements such as polysaccharides, the benefits of locust bean gum powder for everyday living are numerous.

The 45-year-old, who works as a mountain guide called a sherpa, reached the peak while he was leading a group of international climbers.
More than 1,400 people have climbed the peak, which is 8,850m (29,035ft) tall, since the first time in 1953.
But more than 180 have died while trying to reach the perilous summit.
Appa first climbed the mountain in 1989.
A spokesman for Nepal's tourism ministry said 90 people - 44 foreign climbers and 46 sherpas - had climbed the mountain so far this year.

Subject: Open Access statement from the Review of African Political Economy
Date: Tue, 12 Mar 2013 07:14:38 +0000
From: Miles Larmer <email@example.com>
Via H-NET List for African History and Culture <email@example.com>
*Yes to egalitarian 'open access', no to 'pay to publish': *
*A ROAPE position statement on Open Access*
Recent policy changes, by research funding agencies and government, have forced journals such as *ROAPE* to reconsider the ways in which their readers access their content and researchers publish their work. A system of 'Gold Open Access', in which authors or their institutions pay for immediate online publication, is being foisted upon us. In a rapidly changing context, as funders, publishers, authors and journals debate how to respond, this statement sets out the principles that *ROAPE*'s Editorial Working Group wishes to see reflected in this new environment.
Technological changes have in recent years permanently revolutionised the ways in which readers access journals. Electronic distribution means the readership of journals has multiplied enormously. For a journal such as *ROAPE*, which sees its role as political as well as academic, the widening
of its audience is welcome. Our African readership, within and outside universities, is strongly supportive of genuine 'Open Access'.
It is recognised that such a system profoundly challenges the commercial basis of current publishing models and the financial basis on which most journals, including *ROAPE,* currently depend*. *A period of consultation and transition will therefore be necessary to establish a workable model of
genuine Open Access. So-called 'Green' OA in which free access is ensured through self-archiving or in public repositaries must at the same time enable journals to maintain the practices that are their *raison d'etre*: assembling material according to collectively agreed goals (in our case a radical analysis of African society and political economy), together with anonymised peer review exclusively on the basis of intellectual excellence. Any resultant system must be based on these criteria, not on the self-interested defence of current journal or publisher income bases. Consultation must involve the active participation of non-western researchers and stakeholders, whose concerns have hitherto been ignored.
The potential gains of OA are fatally undermined by the 'pay to publish'principle that underlies 'gold' models of Open Access, recommended by the Finch Report in 2012 and endorsed by the UK government and its research councils. Gold models, whilst claiming to achieve open access to academic
research, serve in practice to entrench academic inequality between and within nations; squander research funding on new publishing fees; and prop up an archaic and ultimately unsustainable model of academic publishing.
The disastrous potential effects of gold OA have been identified by its many critics. Firstly, some of the Creative Commons licences associated with gold OA threaten the ownership by intellectuals of their ideas and work. Secondly, gold models establish inequalities of access to journals, for both researchers and readers. Authors whose institutions are able to pay (a tiny minority of research-intensive western-based universities) will enable some academics in their employ to make their work freely available to all readers, whilst those who cannot pay will have their work imprisoned
behind paywalls for lengthy periods, rendering it inherently second-class. Readers, the supposed beneficiaries of OA, will be denied open access to research which is not paid for in this way. Thirdly, gold OA threatens to take the power over whether, where and how to publish away from academics and places it in the hands of university bureaucrats and research funders.
For *ROAPE *and other African studies journals, a primary concern is to ensure accessibility for both readers and researchers on the continent. Whilst we welcome efforts by publishers to introduce 'fee waivers' for non-western researchers, the very need for such a scheme demonstrates that
gold-based OA will increase existing inequalities between resource-poor African researchers and their western counterparts, divisions which we are committed to overcome. We will reject any form of OA which does not ensure equal access to all researchers, wherever they are based.
*ROAPE *has therefore determined that, for the time being, it will not support gold or other OA initiatives currently being launched by its publisher Taylor & Francis and other academic publishers. *ROAPE *will join other Africanist journals, the African Studies Association of the UK and
other allied organisations to promote egalitarian access for both readers and researchers, and to reject the iniquitous gold model of OA, which threatens to commodify intellectual activity and to sow divisions between African and western researchers engaged in the common goal of understanding
and critically analysing society and political economy.

NAPLES, Fla. —U.S. Women's Open champion Na Yeon Choi was steady after an early three-putt bogey and finished with a 3-under 69 that gave her a one-shot lead in the Titleholders.
Choi took over the lead early Saturday when Ai Miyazato made double bogey on the par-5 second hole.
What kept Choi in the lead was not making many mistakes of her own.
It's been that way all week at the LPGA Tour's final event.
Choi is the only player to post every round in the 60s at The TwinEagles Club. She was at 12-under 204, one shot ahead of Miyazato, who rallied with four birdies on the back nine for a 71.
So Yeon Ryu, the LPGA rookie of the year, had a 68 and was two shots back.
Pebble Beach Invitational
ROBERT STREB TAKES LEAD: In Pebble Beach, Calif., Robert Streb shot a 3-under 69 in rainy conditions at Del Monte to take a one-stroke lead over Billy Horschel after the third round in the Pebble Beach Invitational.
The 25-year-old Streb had a 10-under 206 total. He won the Web.com Tour's Mylan Classic in September and finished seventh on the tour's money list to earn a PGA Tour card.
Horschel had a 68, also at Del Monte, as the field of 81 played in light morning rain and soft conditions in the tournament that features PGA, LPGA, Champion and Web.com tour players.
South African Open
STENSON HOLDS 3-SHOT LEAD: In Johannesburg, Henrik Stenson of Sweden closed in on a first European Tour win in three years, taking a three-shot lead into the final round of the South African Open despite George Coetzee shooting a course-record 63.
Stenson had six birdies and three bogeys in a 69 for a 16-under total of 200. Coetzee and Magnus Carlsson were three shots back.
Australian Masters
POULTER TAKES 1-STROKE LEAD: In Melbourne, Australia, defending champion Ian Poulter shot an 8-under-par 64 to take a one-stroke lead over Adam Scott after three rounds of the Australian Masters.
Poulter had five front-nine birdies — four on lengthy putts — and the Englishman had a 54-hole total of 13-under 203 on the Kingston Heath sand-belt course.
Poulter's 9-iron approach on No. 18 nearly holed out from the fairway and he had a tap-in birdie to finish.
Scott, who shot 67, stayed close until consecutive bogeys on 16 and 17. Australian Matthew Guyatt, leader by two strokes after each of the first two rounds, shot 75 Saturday and was six strokes behind in third.

Tessoro jewelry
Deborah Bushinski is the artist and founder of Tessoro Jewelry. With a dedication to using environmentally friendly materials, and a unique mix of color, texture, and composition, Deborah's pieces are truly original. We are excited to present you with an inside look into the Tessoro studio, as well as the creative process itself!
How did you get started?
It all started with birchbark about 30 years ago when, as a painter, I designed and crafted some birch jewelry that I painted directly on to. Over the next years during a marketing career, jewelry developed in the side lines. After receiving much encouragement from family and friends in 1998 Tessoro was launched.
Where is your studio located?
Tessoro jewelry is entirely made in Minnetonka, Minnesota, in our home based studio with the help of a small production team. I love the commute each morning!
Where is your studio located?
Tessoro jewelry is entirely made in Minnetonka, Minnesota, in our home based studio with the help of a small production team. I love the commute each morning!
Can you take us through your creative process?
The process starts with harvesting the birchbark, salvage from the logging industry of Northern Minnesota. The bark is cleaned and weighted for 3-6 months before being used in Tessoro designs.
Each design requires a different thickness or color of bark and/or lichen so the selection is very important.
The desired shape is cut or torn.
In some designs re-purposed copper from car radiators is applied or, as in the Etruscan collection, gold leaf.
The designs are finished off with acrylic polymer to seal the application of hammered metals and gemstones.
What inspires your collections?
In my years of designing jewelry, inspiration has come from many sources. Being involved with fashion has always excited me. I am inspired by runway designers and glean much out of viewing a designer's collection as a whole. It always reminds me to be concise about my vision. Having my jewelry designs included in how a woman chooses to dress is an honor.
Nature with its perfect colors/textures and light/dark contrasts has always proven to be an excellent teacher, indirectly informing my design decisions.
Traveling always opens up a new perspective for me and experiencing a sense of place very often inspires me to embody the essence of it in a collection.
Alexander Calder's wire jewelry has also been very inspiring. The beauty and art he created with simple materials is amazing.
Regardless of the source of inspiration, I have always taken a very playful approach to designing. Beginning with a concept in mind, the materials always are suggestive of a solution, and often deliver unexpected surprises!
We can't wait to see what inspires her next... thank you Deborah!

Screwed in Utah
Over at Cliopatria, KC Johnson tells the harrowing tale of a tenure case gone wrong at Southern Utah University. The ingredients will be eerily familiar to anyone who follows botched tenure cases, and will be especially so to those who know Johnson's own harrowing tenure story: There is an outspoken political science professor whose views clash with those of many of his colleagues; there is a department chair who was just looking for a chance to come down on this professor; there is a trumped-up, confidential case made by this chair against this professor just in time to sink his tenure case; and, just as in KC's notorious situation, there is the framing of this trumped-up case in terms of the professor's alleged lack of "collegiality." The two cases are in many ways an almost perfect mirror image of one another--not least because the political rationale behind each is the opposite of the other: While Johnson's colleagues perceived him--and punished him--as a conservative (not because he is one, but because he criticized their own tendency toward politically biased teaching and hiring), this professor is a liberal who is apparently being punished for expressing his views in a conservative academic environment.
Johnson provides an eloquent summary of Stephen Roberds' case, which among other things appears to be an excellent example of the eggshells that politically marginal untenured faculty forever walk upon. Though Roberds is a decorated, popular teacher, he made a fatal mistake when he swore at a student during a heated class discussion this fall. Though he acknowledged his error and publicly apologized for it, he gave his chairman the excuse he needed to attack.
Well worth considering, too, is the growing batch of comments attached to Johnson's article. The evolving consensus there is that Roberds' case is one that FIRE not only should take up, but most likely will take up. Regretfully, I am going to have to disagree with the understandable optimism contained within those comments. Though a strong case can be made that Roberds is being fired for his outspoken expression of his views, and while superficially that seems to make him a good match for FIRE, there is very little reason to believe that FIRE will take up Roberds' case. Look at FIRE's case archive and note the pattern: FIRE does not involve itself in tenure cases. It hasn't, it can't, and unless I am sorely mistaken, it won't. And the reason for this is simple: As a tiny, highly focussed First Amendment watchdog organization, FIRE simply cannot get into the business of arguing personnel decisions, especially when those decisions are shrouded in confidentiality and are ultimately made at the whim and discretion of the various faculty committees involved.
FIRE will only take on cases where it can absolutely document the wrongdoing and when the wrongdoing is very clearly oriented around a First Amendment violation. This is partly tactical--FIRE wants to be an organization whose issues are clearcut and whose cases are slam dunks; it is also partly practical--were FIRE to get into the business of defending everyone who believed he didn't get tenure because his colleagues don't like his politics, FIRE would not only never do anything else, but would also never win a case.
More to the point, FIRE has suffered a lot of embarrassing setbacks over the past year: A glance at the case archive for the past year shows a number of instances in which FIRE went public with a case only to be ignored by the school it was trying to shame into decency and to be largely ignored by the media (whose coverage is necessary for that meliorative shaming to occur). The organization is getting back on its feet again this fall, and has begun winning cases again. But there has been enormous turnover at the organization over the past year, and most of the people there are inexperienced and new to the game FIRE plays. Roberds' case would be a tricky one for even a seasoned FIRE team. At present, the foundation just can't afford to get stuck in the kind of sinkhole Roberds' case would likely become for it.
I'd love to be wrong. I'd love to have to eat my words here. But unless Roberds can document his case as thoroughly as KC was able to document his--which is highly unlikely--I don't think FIRE will touch him.
And just for the record, it's worth remembering that FIRE was not one of KC's public defenders, either (I can't speak for what the FIRE people may or may not have done behind the scenes). It's also worth recalling that there were a number of cases last year in which faculty were fired for their speech--Nona Gerard at Penn State, Robert Day at Cumberland College, two professors at Southern Mississippi. FIRE did not take a stand on any of them.
Again, I'd love to be wrong. I'd love to see Roberds get the kind of support he clearly needs, and I'd love to see FIRE do it. But I don't think the odds of that are very good.
UPDATE: KC Johnson summarizes and dissects an op-ed by the president of SUU's faculty senate that purports to lay the controversy over Roberds' firing to rest. As Johnson makes eminently clear, that's the last thing this damning and telling piece does:
So, to sum up: the president of the SUU Faculty Senate has said that his institution fired its 2003 Professor of the Year because he was uncollegial to the students who voted him their professor of the year; because he criticized a new Faculty Senate constitution coincidentally written by the same Faculty Senate president who now deems him uncollegial; and because SUU has a process in which all tenure candidacies are considered by multiple committees in a gentlemanly fashion. A piece of unsolicited advice to Professor Rees: the next time the idea of penning an op-ed crosses your mind, sleep on it for a day or two.
Erin is absolutely correct that FIRE didn't take a public position on my case, as part of their general policy from refraining from involvement in tenure matters.
And a look through their caseload reveals their need to focus on student-centered matters: at my own Brooklyn College, the same president who tried to deny me tenure recently tried to dissolve the student government after it brought to the floor a Student Bill of Rights. Quick, effective involvement from FIRE yielded an annulment of the decision.
The controversy continues to rage over this incident and the administration is still making ridiculous excuses. We are a group of students trying to get something done about this at our school. If you know anyone who could help to get the word out about this case, please let them know. There is a lot more information on our website www.onlyinutah.org

Long plateau ends as fewer adults smoke
The smoking rate for adults in the country dipped last year after a seven-year stall, a new government report said. It's too early to tell why.
Smoking rates have declined steadily for decades, according to the report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Last year's decrease — down to 18 percent — ends a smoking rate stall that hovered at 20 percent to 21 percent for more than seven years, then froze at about 19 percent in 2010 and 2011.
"We are a long way from the end game on tobacco use," said Thomas Novotny, professor of global health at San Diego State University. "It is too early to declare victory."
Smoking is the leading cause of preventable illness and death in the USA, accounting for one in five deaths and direct medical costs ranging from $50 billion to $73 billion per year, the CDC says. It causes more than 80 percent of all lung cancer deaths and coronary heart disease, the leading cause of death in the country, according to a CDC report.
It's unclear what caused last year's smoking rate to decline. Historically, rising taxes on tobacco products, smoking restrictions and mass media and school-based educational campaigns have helped push down the smoking rate, says Joshua Yang, a tobacco control researcher at the University of California-San Francisco.
The preliminary report, released on Tuesday, did not include data on teens. The rate was about 9 percent for adults older than 65 compared with about 20 percent for all other adults. Men are more likely to smoke than women across all age groups.
The data were collected from a survey of 35,000 U.S. adults. Adults who have smoked more than 100 cigarettes in their lifetime and smoke every day or some days are considered smokers.
Almost half of states require smoke-free indoor air, a well-studied deterrent to smoking, says Richard Grucza, an associate professor of psychiatry at Washington University. He said declines could be the result of stricter tobacco control policies.
Last year, the CDC started a controversial advertising campaign featuring graphic photos, stories and videos of smokers to budge the smoking rate down. The TV and radio spots triggered 200,000 additional calls by smokers about quitting, according to the CDC.
Yang acknowledges the significance of the CDC's effort but says other tobacco control efforts can't be discounted. Increases in cigarette prices reduce smoking rates significantly, especially for adolescents.

Above town are the ruins of the castle where England's King Richard the Lionheart was imprisoned in 1192. A Local Guide will tell you the tale during your GUIDED WALK. Those seeking some sporting activity might like to climb up the steep hill to the castle ruins for spectacular views of the town and river. Alternatively, you may just want to stroll through the narrow streets on your own. Then, cruise through the beautiful Wachau Valley to reach Melk after lunch and visit the magnificent 11th-century BENEDICTINE ABBEY. Melk's abbey towers over the town and is one of Europe's largest. It houses an ornate library with over 80,000 printed books and 2,000 manuscripts.

Or, you may prefer to join one of a variety of optional excursions today. (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner)

Target: Clearwater Marine Aquarium CEO David Yates
Goal: Demand that the Clearwater Marine Aquarium improve conditions for its wildlife
The Clearwater Marine Aquarium has been cited five times since 2010 for circumstances that have the potential to harm marine mammals. Other local aquariums, such as SeaWorld in Orlando and the Florida Aquarium in Tampa, didn't have any violations during the same time period. It is clearly not a problem with aquariums, but with this particular one. This must not be allowed to continue.
Between September 2010 and June this year, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) cited the Clearwater aquarium for chipping paint and rust in the main dolphin pool, salinity levels in the dolphin stranding tank being too high for 58 out of 74 days, storing fresh food for the animals on rusty shelves and beneath a cooling unit fan that leaked condensation onto food, and failing to perform weekly coliform bacteria tests on pools, among other things. Not only were all of the aquarium's citations USDA violations, they were also violations of the federal Animal Welfare Act.
The aquarium's CEO David Yates claims that the inspectors' reports are subjective and that conclusions shouldn't be drawn based on "pieces of paper." It is true that some of the violations are simply the result of an aging building, but it is hard to ignore circumstances that place the aquarium's marine life in danger. Dr. R.O. Overton, a former USDA inspector who cited the aquarium in 2011, described the high salinity levels as a "a major issue" and the lack of consistent coliform bacteria testing as "alarming."
Despite the millions of dollars the Clearwater Marine Aquarium has spent making improvements, many of the issues it received citations for in the past remain persistent problems, most of which could easily be remedied, signaling incompetence on behalf of the staff rather than financial or architectural issues. Please take a moment to sign the petition below and demand that these issues are addressed and the lives of these animals are protected.
Dear David Yates,
Since 2010 your aquarium has been cited five times for conditions that could potentially harm the lives of marine mammals. You continue to assert that the conditions aren't as bad as the USDA inspectors make it out to be, and that these citations are merely the result of a growing and improving aquarium. While it is true that the conditions at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium are infinitely better than when it opened its doors in 2006, issues like high salinity levels or failure to perform regular bacteria tests are circumstances that should never continue to occur. These problems are not the result of a decaying building, but the carelessness of the staff.
Please take action immediately to ensure that these citations end and that the lives of the aquarium's marine wildlife are no longer put in danger.

This study compared orthographic and semantic aspects of word learning in children who differed in reading comprehension skill. Poor comprehenders and controls matched for age (9-10 years), nonverbal ability and decoding skill were trained to pronounce 20 visually presented nonwords, 10 in a consistent way and 10 in an inconsistent way. They then had an opportunity to infer the meanings of the new words from story context. Orthographic learning was measured in three ways: the number of trials taken to learn to pronounce nonwords correctly, orthographic choice and spelling. Across all measures, consistent items were easier than inconsistent items and poor comprehenders did not differ from control children. Semantic learning was assessed on three occasions, using a nonword-picture matching task. While poor comprehenders showed equivalent semantic learning to controls immediately after exposure to nonword meaning, this knowledge was not well-retained over time. Results are discussed in terms of the language and reading skills of poor comprehenders and in relation to current models of reading development.

Is swindle > stable enough so that it doesn't bring me problems while developing > the planner? It is very stable. No major changes for a few years now. One major factor in your decision should be speed: if you really need it, then CMUCL is probably a better choice. On the other hand, Swindle will give you a better language to work with (IMO. Don't quote me on c.l.l), better environment, and better libraries -- all plt-scheme modules are available without any change to your code or to the library code, even when the library code uses a different object system. > Oh, if you wish to know, what I tried in swindle was: > > (defclass fol-formula () > ())) > > (defclass fol-connective (fol-formula) > ((arg1 :accessor connective-arg1 :initarg :arg1) > (arg2 :accessor connective-arg2 :initarg :arg2))) > > (defmethod print-object ((c fol-connective) stream) > (format stream "#<Connective ~A ~A>" > (connective-arg1 c) > (connective-arg2 c))) You have an extra pair of parens around the slots. This is how you would do it: (defclass <formula> ()) (defclass <connective> (<formula>) (arg1 :accessor connective-arg1 :initarg :arg1) (arg2 :accessor connective-arg2 :initarg :arg2)) (defmethod (print-object (c <connective>) escape stream) (fprintf stream "#<Connective ~a ~a>" (connective-arg1 c) (connective-arg2 c))) and given this, (make <connective> :arg1 "foo" :arg2 "bar") would print what you'd expect it to. Notes: 1. Swindle follows Scheme and does not invent another namespace for classes, instead, they are normal bindings. Because of this, I usually use <foo> for class names. [This makes cute things like: (defmethod (foo (x (car <number> <string>))) ...) work as expected (the class parts of the form is evaluated as usual).] 2. Since you're still in PLT Scheme, there is no need for a `fol-' prefix for everything you do, just put it all in a module. 3. A defmethod form can use the Lisp-like form: (defmethod name (args ...) body ...) but it is much better to use the more Schemely form: (defmethod (name args ...) body ...) 4. PLT Scheme has `fprintf' as a limited version of CL's `format'. Swindle adds `echo' which supports part of the power you get with CL's format. 5. Note the arguments for the `print-object' generic function. 6. Worth repeating: Swindle is a [PLT] Scheme library, it uses Scheme constructs and syntax. It has some design decisions that are more in the spirit for Scheme than some of the ugly (mostly macro- hacked) corners of CLOS. It comes with some libraries that will make life easier for a CL programmer, but it is *not* a syntactic- level compatibility layer for CL. -- ((lambda (x) (x x)) (lambda (x) (x x))) Eli Barzilay: http://www.barzilay.org/ Maze is Life!

Two Members of Nicki Minaj's Team Were Stabbed, One Died
Two members of Nicki Minaj's team were stabbed last night (Feb. 17) in Philadelphia, resulting in the death of one person.
Two members of Nicki Minaj's team were stabbed last night (Feb. 17) in Philadelphia, resulting in the death of one person.
From errant face powder to poorly blended foundation, check out the biggest celebrity makeup malfunctions.
Poor Nicki Minaj! The 'Anaconda' rapper suffered an embarrassing nip slip while chatting it up with Andy Cohen on 'Watch What Happens Live' last night (Dec. 17).
Last night (Dec. 6), Nicki Minaj was the musical guest on the James Franco-hosted episode of 'SNL,' and the hip-hop superstar absolutely killed it. Not only did Nicki perform an emotional rendition of her new song, 'Bed of Lies,' with Skylar Grey on piano, she also gave a flawless mash-up of 'Only' and 'All Things Go.'
Aretha Franklin is undoubtedly the Queen of Soul, a living legend, a true vocal talent. So it only made sense that she was asked her opinion of the current crop of pop girls during her interview with the Wall Street Journal. Her answers for some (Adele, Whitney Houston, Alicia Keys) were positive, fair judgments. Her reaction to others, however -- not so kind.
Trust us, you haven't heard Nicki Minaj's 'Anaconda' until you've heard it done bluegrass hoedown style!
PopCrush Mini-Mix 27 features remixed tracks from Taylor Swift, Nicki Minaj, Sam Smith and more. Listen here!
I'm not sure it ever left. In the battle of who's is bigger and who's is better Jennifer Lopez is still Queen B-hind! This time she has doubled your pleasure by inviting Iggy Azalea onto the remix track of "Booty".
Nicki Minaj may have suffered a wardrobe malfunction at the 2014 MTV VMAs, but she played it off like it was no biggie.
Well, Barbz, Nicki Minaj's 'Anaconda' video is finally here. And yes, it is basically a 5-minute long ode to her butt.
Nicki Minaj is known for her array of wigs. She even has wig stylists. She rocks a different length, texture and 'do every time we see her. The Queen of the Barbz posted a few photos to her Instagram showing off her real hair. We know you wanna see Nicki au naturel.
Nicki Minaj recently sat down to shoot a cover for ESPN magazine, but was ultimately none too happy with the final product, which she says is heavily Photoshopped.
Spoiler: all magazine covers are Photoshopped.

My father in law was up at night with wet sheets but these undergarments solved the problem.
Pros:They look a lot like regular underwear and have a comfortable fit.
Overall: Yes, I would recommend this product.
You have changed the top and now it leaks more around the legs.
Pros:price is competative
Cons:they leak around legs
Overall: No, I would not recommend this product.
Product effectively does what it's supposed to do.
Pros:Absorbent, no leaks, easy on/off
Overall: Yes, I would recommend this product.
Very absobant best brand we've tried yet and we have tried quite a few different brands.
Pros:less leakage!
Cons:a little smaller than some other brands in the medium other brands fit well these fit but are tight.
Overall: Yes, I would recommend this product.
Very well made, and high absorbancy. My mother can sleep all night without worry.
Pros:Leg elastic is soft but keeps leaks to a minimum.
Cons:Tape tabs would be easier, but probably not as secure.
Overall: Yes, I would recommend this product.
The protection that this products gives is better that any we have found before. We do not like the kind that has the glue strip on each side. We especially like the elastic waist and the on/off feature.
Pros:It is not really bulky and is very absorbent. It also gives good protection from running out around the legs.
Cons:So far we haven't found anything that we specifically do not like about this product.
Overall: Yes, I would recommend this product.

AFTER two manic years in a Swindon Town shirt, Wes Foderingham is looking forward to a much more tranquil 2014 - just as long as the Robins survive the January transfer window.
Foderingham has tasted promotion from League Two, a League One play-off campaign, three different owners, four chairmen and five managers during his 24 months as a full-time fixture at the County Ground - a remarkable record.
Now, however, he is hoping that stormy waters in Wiltshire will start to level out and that Town can keep their current squad together to maintain their push for a top-six finish.
"It will be a bit calmer if we keep the style and set-up that we've got at the minute - from the board, the manager, the team, the players," he told the Advertiser. "We've got a good blend at the minute and I think we're going in the right direction. Hopefully 2014 will be positive."
Foderingham himself has been the subject of plenty of transfer speculation over recent weeks, with Bournemouth touted as a possible destination for the former Crystal Palace stopper in January.
However, the Advertiser understands the Cherries' interest in Foderingham has cooled as they pursue a possible long-term deal for West Brom's Lee Camp and, with no other Championship clubs believed to be keen on the 22-year-old, at present it appears as though Swindon will hang on to the goalkeeper in the new year.
Foderingham expects plenty more rumours to rear their heads in January and he feels it important that Town's players try their best to distance themselves from any and all gossip.
"Everybody talks about it a little bit but you can't let it affect your performance," he said. "There's going to be interest in a lot of our players because we've got a lot of good, young players.
"It's only natural in football - it's not just Swindon - that we're getting players looked at. It's the same for players throughout the Football League. You've just got to deal with it and do your best on a matchday."

Mountain View, Calif. • Sitting in a kitchen stocked with free food, a handful of 20-something Google summer interns weigh their favorite perks, but where to begin? With bikes, buses, massages, swimming pools, dance classes, nap pods, parties and access to their tech heroes, it's a very long list.
"Unlimited sparkling water?" someone says.
In the end, however, the budding Googlers are most excited about the work.
"The project I'm working on is super high impact, and I'm looking for ways to make my mark," says Rita DeRaedt, 20, studying visual communication technology at Bowling Green State University in Ohio. She admitted to being a bit star-struck after she was assigned to a team headed by a designer she's long admired.

They are snobby and unprofessional. They have a no return policy. I received a gift from their store at the end of July. The store was closed all of August for vacation. In early Sept I brought the item back but they told me: 1) it was out of season since the Fall line had already come out. 2) I could not get store credit but that they would "try" to get some back inventory for me to exchange with. They never called. They had taken my item back and given me their telephone number written on a post it. No store credit. After some time had gone by I knew I could not go back with just a post it and there was nothing to claim but a very expensive gift that did not fit.

Kagome goes to check on Sango and finds her at her village's graves. Sango later leads the group to the cave and says they should be able to pass through the barrier. The barrier was created by the Priestess Midoriko. Sango explains that Midoriko was the most powerful priestess several centuries ago. She had the power to purify demon souls. Miroku then explains the soul is made up of 4 parts; courage, friendship, wisdom, and love. The soul could become evil at any time. Kagome realizes Shikon means 4. Sango continues that 1 day many demons combined into 1 and fought Midoriko for 7 days and 7 nights. Midoriko ended up forcing out the demon's soul, but also forced her own out. This became the Shikon Jewel, where both Midoriko's and the demon's soul still fights. Inuyasha doesn't care about this and says he will use the Shikon Jewel to become a full demon. He is thrown from the cave. Later that night, Myoga and Kirara enter the cave. Myoga drops the Shikon Jewel and the spirit of a demon revives and attacks Kirara. Myoga sees the Priestess Midoriko save them, but it turns out to be Inuyasha. While Inuyasha and Midoriko walk away, Kirara sleeps in the cave.
Kagome voiceovers that Myoga concluded the priestess couldn't possibly have defeated so many demons by herself. Kirara appears next to the priestess on a grassy hill and the 2 walk off.

[domestic Sanity] – 2012 Official Discussion Thread [New Brand Wants Feedback]
Domestic Sanity was created to bring quality clothing and art to the nostalgic individual. Our bear is a visual representation of the inner child. Within this child lies many traumatizing moments along with happy experiences. Even through adulthood we find ourselves protecting our old wounds as well as recalling our brightest memories. Each series of designs is inspired by these themes with a perspective and commentary on everyday life. Our hope is that the illustrations voice ideas within the psyche of our generation, ranging from childhood through the years of maturation. www.domesticsanity.com [Image] [Embed content] [URL]2 Weeks ago in Brands
