Assistive Listening Project 2014 Convention Announcement:
At the 2014 national convention the National Federation of the Blind Amateur Radio Division and the National Federation of the Blind Deaf-Blind Division will again offer special arrangements for severely hearing-impaired people attending convention sessions and the banquet. This will consist of transmission of the public address system signal over a special short-range radio transmitter for the severely hearing-impaired. Spanish-language translation of convention proceedings in general sessions and the banquet will also be provided using a similar arrangement. The special receivers required for these services will also be provided.
In cooperation with several state affiliates (notably Colorado, Utah, and Virginia), the NFB will provide special receivers for these transmissions to those needing them. The receiver-lending will be managed by the Amateur Radio Division and will be operated from a table just outside the meeting room. A deposit of $40, cash only, will be required of anyone wishing to check out one of the Federation's receivers. The deposit will be returned if the receiver is checked in at the checkout table in good condition by the end of the banquet or within thirty minutes of adjournment of the last convention session that the borrower plans to attend. Batteries for the receiver will be provided. Anyone checking out a Federation receiver will be given upon request a miniature earbud-type earphone to use with the receiver.
Along with explaining what will be available, it is important that we explain what will not be available. The miniature earbud loudspeaker-type earphone will be the only kind of earphone offered. If you would like to use your own earphone(s), silhouette, neck loop, or other device or adapter cable to get the signal from the receiver we provide to your ear, you must ensure that the cable connection between your device and our receiver is one that will fit the audio jack found on electronic devices such as talking book and MP3 players, laptops, or mobile devices like iPhones and note takers. In technical terms, this is referred to as a 3.5 mm (formerly called 1/8-inch) earphone plug. You are advised to arrange for such things well ahead of arriving at the convention. Other than the earphone jack on the receiver, no means of connection to a hearing aid will be available from the checkout table. The receiver does not have a built-in loudspeaker. While earphones, and even neck loops, are sometimes available in the exhibit hall, you cannot be certain of getting one there.
Many severely hearing-impaired people already use radio systems that employ FM radio signals to carry the voice from a transmitter held by the person speaking to a receiver in the hearing aid. Some of these hearing aid systems can be tuned to receive the Federation's special transmitters. In this case the hearing-impaired person may simply tune his or her own receiver to receive the Federation's transmitter and will not need to check out a Federation receiver.
Some audiologists and rehabilitation agencies are now buying digital and other FM hearing aids that cannot be tuned to the Federation's frequency. If you have one of these or if you have any other type of hearing aid, you should obtain from your audiologist an adapter cable to connect from your hearing aid to a monaural 3.5 mm earphone jack. This will allow you to plug the cable from your hearing aid directly into a receiver you check out from our table. This will allow you to hear as well as anyone else using one of our receivers.
The transmitter for the hearing impaired will be connected to the public address system so that the signals from the head table and the aisle microphones will be transmitted on channel thirty-six (74.775 MHz narrow band FM). People must not operate their personal transmitters on channel thirty-six or on channel thirty-eight, because that would interfere with the reception by others. This means that folks wishing to use their own receivers (rather than checking out one of the Federation's receivers) need to have their personal receivers arranged so that they can switch between their personal channels and channel thirty-six. Some people may need to purchase replacement or additional receivers. Caution your audiologist that there is more than one channel thirty-six, and he or she must also verify that your frequency matches our frequency.
This announcement is published now to allow as much time as possible for those interested to make the necessary arrangements before convention. It contains this amount of detail so that any audiologist who works with this type of equipment should be able to know by reading this article exactly what capabilities a person's hearing system must have to work with the Federation's system at convention.
Even if your hearing aid is not of the FM type, you may be able to purchase a silhouette, a neck loop, or an adapter cable to couple the signal from a Federation receiver directly to your hearing aid. Your audiologist should also be able to help you with this. The NFB Deaf-Blind division has offered to provide feedback on their members' experiences with these types of devices to interested convention attendees. Contact Joe Naulty, 3924 South Wind Drive, West Melbourne, Florida 32904, (321) 768-9500 or <[email protected]> for inquiries. Please always remember to consult your audiologist when considering any additions to your hearing aid setup.
The service for Spanish speakers will be similar, except that a live Spanish translator will speak over a separate transmitter on channel thirty-eight (75.275 MHz narrow band FM). We do not expect that people will bring their own receivers for the Spanish-translation service, unless they are also hearing impaired and use an FM hearing aid system. Spanish speakers may, however, wish to bring their own earphones. See above for a description of the type of plug needed.
Norm Gardner from Utah will be coordinating the Spanish language interpreters, and he would appreciate hearing from anyone willing to volunteer to interpret. Please call him before convention at (801) 224-6969, or send him email at <[email protected]>.
If other state affiliates or chapters are interested in purchasing this type of equipment for use in state and local meetings, they are encouraged to purchase equipment that is compatible with that which we are using and to allow it to be used in the pool of equipment that the Amateur Radio Division administers at national convention. Tony Olivero would like to help you choose equipment that is compatible with that which the NFB is using. You may contact him at (765) 977-1683 or at <[email protected]>. The Federation is pleased to offer these services to our severely hearing-impaired and Spanish-speaking colleagues, and we hope and believe that it will again significantly improve their convention experience.
Finally, we would like to take a moment and thank Curtis Willoughby for his many years of dedicated leadership of the NFB Amateur Radio Division. Curtis's efforts have contributed significantly to the ability of those with hearing loss and those who are primarily Spanish speakers to participate in convention sessions. Curtis, we thank you for all the time and effort you have put forth over the years.
Braille Book Fair 2014:
Calling all Braille readers, teachers, and parents! It's that time again: time to sort through all those boxes of Braille books and donate gently used but no longer needed Braille books to the 2014 Braille Book Fair sponsored by the National Organization of Parents of Blind Children. Our primary goal is to get more Braille books into the hands of children, youth, and beginning adult readers, so here's what we need most: books in good condition, print-Braille picture storybooks, leisure reading (fiction or nonfiction) books, cookbooks, and books about sports.
Children are so hungry for their very own books that every year, despite generous donations of books, most of our books for young children are gone in less than an hour. So begin your search through the boxes in your basement and spare room and get those books shipped to: UPS, Braille Book Fair, Attention: Elainna Moore, C/O 2014 NFB Convention Braille Book Fair, 8901 Atlantic Ave, Orlando FL 32824.
This year's coordinator is Krystal Guillory. If you have any questions, contact Krystal Guillory at (318) 245-8955 or <[email protected]>. This year's event is slated to take place on Wednesday, July 3, 2014, from 5:00 to 7:00 PM. Please check the convention agenda for location.
As always we need volunteers to help with this project. If you can help unpack, shelve, assist children in finding books, or participate in the cleanup, please contact Krystal by writing to her at <[email protected]>. We promise that you'll come away from this event feeling uplifted and glad you were able to help so many happy children.
Louisiana Center for the Blind to Perform Jerry Whittle Play at Convention:

Petition to Encourage Appliance Accessibility
The Show-Me chapter of the National Federation of the Blind of Missouri, with the assistance of one of its founding members, Gene Fleeman, has started a petition on change.org. The petition is directed to manufacturers of stoves, ovens, and other household appliances. It asks them to design these so that they can be used nonvisually by incorporating tactile buttons, tactile markings, providing audio cues, or by any other methods that will give the blind the ability to use them independently. Those wishing to read the petition or sign it are encouraged to visit <http://www.change.org/petitions/association-of-home-appliance-manufacturers-incorporate-voice-technology-audio-queues-and-or-tactile-buttons-into-your-flat-panel-appliances-to-make-them-accessible-to-the-blind-and-those-with-low-vision>.

Parents and Teachers Needed for Studies to Increase Literacy:
Literacy is the most important skill a child can obtain. At the Professional Development and Research Institute on Blindness at Louisiana Tech University, we believe in every blind and/or visually impaired child having access to literacy. That is one of the principal purposes of the institute—to conduct research that deepens and broadens our understanding of blindness and the best educational practices to help those who are blind to function better in society.
For this reason we are embarking on two separate but related studies. The first is aimed at collecting information from teachers of the blind/visually impaired about their training and experiences with vision loss. Secondly, we are launching a separate survey that is aimed at parents who have children in K-12 education. What follows is more information on how teachers and parents can help. Your assistance in spreading the word about these studies is very much appreciated. Parents and teachers can help us evaluate the services and educational experiences of blind and/or visually impaired youth in grades K-12. By filling out a quick survey, you can help us examine and better understand the educational experiences of blind and/or visually impaired youth. Your feedback will improve future policies and practices that will be used to prepare soon-to-be teachers. Participation in this study allows us to gain a much richer and more robust understanding of factors that impact service options and academic performance of blind and/or visually impaired youth.
If you are a teacher, you must meet the following criteria: a) Currently be a certified teacher of visual impairment TVI/TBS; b) Have a case load of one or more students with low vision or blindness as his or her primary diagnosed disability on his/her Individualized Education Plan (IEP). Teachers may access the survey at <https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/pdribt>.
For a parent or guardian to participate in this study, your child must meet the following criteria: a) Be between the ages of five and twenty-two and be enrolled in a school in the United States in grades K-12; b) Visual impairment must be listed as his or her primary diagnosed disability on his or her IEP; c) English is his or her primary spoken language. Parents may access the survey at <https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/pdribp>.
Your participation is greatly appreciated. If you have questions about either study or want to know about ways in which you can help, you can contact the principal researchers for this study. Edward Bell, PhD, is the principal investigator and can be reached by phone at (318) 257-4554 or by email at <[email protected]>. Casey Robertson, research associate, is the lead person for questions about teachers or parents, and she can be contacted by email at <[email protected]>. We at the Professional Development and Research Institute on Blindness thank you for your attention and assistance in this important research.
Updated Braille Contractions:
The American Action Fund for Blind Children and Adults has produced an updated version of the Handbook of Braille Contractions. The update does not contain the UEB changes. These changes will be available in the next update. The handbook is available from the NFB Independence Market in a Twin Vision format and in Braille. The cost is five dollars with a $4.75 handling fee on all orders up to fifty dollars.
For the first time the Braille file can be downloaded from the Action Fund website at <www.actionfund.org>.
2014 Annual Bible Conference:
The National Church Conference of the Blind will hold its 2014 Annual Bible Conference August 2 through August 8, 2014. The 2014 conference will be held at The Grand Vista Hotel, 2790 Crossroads Boulevard at Horizon Drive, Grand Junction, Colorado 81506.

Dog Veterinary
Ask a Dog Vet and Get Answers to Your Dog Health Questions
Welcome to JustAnswer! I would be happy to assist you. I am a 2003 graduate from UC Davis and a Medical Director of a 4 veterinarian practice.
Yes, he will really need to get into the vet. Your are better not to give anything for pain, because if you give a drug like aspirin, it is going to block the vet from being able to give any better anti-inflammatory drug (we don't mix these types of medications).
In addition, huge predisposition for a nail bed infection, so well worth getting the better supportive care now to get it addressed.
I really think he is in pain, does this qualify as an emergency to take him to the hospital today?
Often, the broekn nail piece must be removed (often with a little sedation), and a vet will prescribe pain medication and/or anti-inflammatory drugs and antibiotics.
I think so.
Well worth the visit now.
Please remember to close the question by clicking "accept". My family greatly appreciates it. Or, let me know if there is anything else I may add to try and be more helpful or informative.
Dr. Andy
Perfect, that is what I needed to know. Thank you so much! Have a great rest of your day.

Officers are blocking vehicle access at a UC Berkeley-owned farm that "Occupy the Farm" protesters have camped out for more than two weeks, the Oakland Tribune reports.
Update at 12:10 p.m. ET: UC Berkeley spokesman Dan Mogulof confirms to KCBS-TV that UC police put concrete barriers in place this morning at the two vehicle entrances to the property.
The protesters want the land in Albany used for an urban farm and accuse the school of planning to develop the site. Mogul denies that and tells KCBS the "door remains open" for the protesters to accept a compromise solution.
In return for vacating the plot, the university offered to conduct a public dialogue on continuing "urban farming" on the land, he tells KCBS.
VIDEO: Live from the scene
Original post: Officers arrived at the farm at 6 a.m. PT and began communicating with those living in the makeshift camp in Albany, University of California Police Lt. Eric Tejada says. No arrests have been made and none of the protesters have been removed, but "officers are controlling vehicle access to the site. Vehicles can go, they just can't come in," he tells the Tribune.
Protesters, who call themselves Occupy the Farm, have occupied the Albany land since April 22. The Tribune says they want the property to be used as an urban farm.
UC Berkeley officials on Monday warned protesters that they were running out of time to leave the site voluntarily. The university says the College of Natural Resources soon will need to access the land for research.

John Gillon, Lorene Pigg, Dr Grant Gillon – Elected Members of the Kaipatiki Local Board
06th June 2014
• Kaipatiki Local Board narrowly rejects demolishing Birkenhead Wharf bike cage
• Second review of bike cage to be conducted over 12 months
• Local Board in denial as community concerns continue to be ignored
Kaipatiki Local Board members John Gillon, Lorene Pigg and Dr. Grant Gillon are horrified that the obstructive bike cage at Birkenhead Wharf has been granted another 12 months of life by the Board, despite protests from the community.
A report from Auckland Transport that arrived 8 months after it was requested by the Board, glosses over safety and aesthetic concerns raised by the community last year and endorses leaving the bike cage where it is. Unbelievably, the report estimates relocation costs higher than it cost to build and timeframes longer than it took to construct. The report dismisses alternative bicycle facilities put forward by the community, without giving them due consideration.
Over the last year, the Local Board has heard passionate pleas to both stop construction, and then later to remove the bike cage. The Board has received a petition from 628 locals to move the bike cage to a different location; been shown video of the bike cage blocking the view of youth in the water; seen photos of safety issues, loss of harbour views; and heard concerns of a lack of community consultation in such an important heritage area.
A Woeful Monument
At its meeting on Wednesday 14th May, the casting vote of the Chairperson was used to vote down John Gillon's motion to demolish the bike cage (3 in favour; 3 against; 1 abstention; 1 absent).
"Enough is enough," said John Gillon, member of the Kaipatiki Local Board, "the bike cage is a woeful monument to a lack of consultation and ignorance of community views and it must be removed. I am appalled that the Board has chosen to keep the bike cage for a further 12 months while a second review is conducted. As it is too expensive to remove, if another Local Board isn't willing to purchase the bike cage from us, then it should be demolished."
Kaipatiki Local Board in Denial
Lorene Pigg, who was elected on a platform of listening to the community, is disturbed at the blasé attitude of some members of the Local Board.
"Not listening to locals was one of the key election issues last year," said Lorene Pigg, member of the Kaipatiki Local Board, "I don't understand how other Board members can deny that there are safety issues, heritage issues and consultation issues with the location of the bike cage."
Lack of Consultation
A motion from Dr. Grant Gillon to defer the report until after the Board had heard from the Hinemoa Park Placemakers group, set up in the wake of the bike cage controversy, was also voted down.
"The bike cage was approved by the Local Board after it was misled into thinking that Auckland Transport had conducted robust consultation with the local community, when all it had done was consulted with a regional cycling group," said Dr. Grant Gillon, member of the Kaipatiki Local Board, "We should have been able to hear from the new Hinemoa Park Placemakers group before deciding on whether to extend the life of the cage. However it is a relief that they will be included in this new review – better late than never."
Our View
We support consultation with the community before projects such as this are approved. We support bicycle and scooter facilities at the Birkenhead Wharf, however there are serious heritage, aesthetic, safety and consultation concerns with the current location of the bike cage. As Auckland Transport cannot find an alternative location in the vicinity for the bike cage, we would like to see the bike cage removed immediately and replaced with a less intrusive form of bike parking, such as an undercover bike rack near the Coca Cola machine.

Menguin: Removing All Hassles from Tuxedo Rental with Technology and Style
Menguin launches an online tuxedo rental solution targeting weddings that features measurement technology and thousands of tuxedo options. All backed by a one of a kind guarantee.
Atlanta, GA, April 03, 2014 --(
)-- Menguin Inc. launches a new tuxedo rental website targeting grooms and their wedding parties. The Indiana based company has developed a robust web solution that allows users to get fitted from home using a cutting edge technology called eTailor. Grooms set up their wedding party and select from high quality tuxedos and accessories, all from anywhere in the world.
The innovation promises to change the tuxedo rental business by catering to a growing demographic that uses the web to shop and engage services. Currently, it takes a groom over three hours to rent a tuxedo. Menguin trims that down to ten minutes or less with technology and service.
Justin Delaney, CEO of Menguin, states, "We hated the process. We hated the product. We hated the lack of alternatives in the market. We decided to create a better way - to revolt against this horrible tuxedo rental system. We believe in doing it right. First time, with style, without hassle and with a one of kind guarantee. It is what we do."
Menguin has the ability to deliver anywhere in the world and in most places overnight through logistical partnerships that have been developed. COO, Michael Gassman, adds " We have built this to scale. If we have a million customers in year one, then we will have a million happy customers. We can function at a high level from day one and reach 99% of the United States in a day or two from over a dozen warehouses. Thanks to our partnerships and investors, we have been able to create a customer fulfillment masterpiece from day one."

Jordan Price, a six-foot-four, 220-pound two guard from Southwest DeKalb, was a perfect 4-4 on his shooting in the scrimmage.
Three of his field goals were behind the three-point line as he finished with 11 points, making him the leading scorer in the 20 minutes of game action as the Tigers played half of regulation game for fans to see at the Auburn Arena on Saturday.
On Tuesday at 7 p.m. the Tigers will play an exhibition game vs. Victory University. Barbee says he saw positive signs from his Tigers, both offense and defense, in the intrasquad scrimmage. Price agrees.
"I think we looked pretty good," notes Price, a four-star recruit. "We were trying to make it fun for the fans and execute as well as we could. I think it was pretty good for our first outing."
Asked how he believes he has been performing this preseason, Price says, "I am still getting there. Hopefully, by the time we play our first game I will be ready."
The Tigers will open the regular season at home on Nov. 9th vs. IPFW out of the Horizon League. That will come following a second exhibition game set for Nov. 5th vs. Georgia Southwestern.
Barbee's team features six newcomers, including four freshmen who were on campus all summer getting an early start on college. Price used that time to work on his conditioning.
"I have dropped about 20 to 25 pounds trying to get leaner and stronger in the weight room," he says. "We have got a lot of coaches developing us. I am still trying to drop about five more pounds."
Jordan Price is shown in Saturday's scrimmage.
Barbee has praised the leadership of his senior class. Price notes the group has been very helpful to the newcomers. "The seniors are doing a good job of leading us whenever we need help," the freshman guard says.
"We are coming together real well, on and off the court," Price adds. "We have a lot of meetings, without the coaches, to keep the team together. We try to get together once week to go out and eat or something to build chemistry so we can be like brothers on and off the court."
In addition to Price, the other newcomers had solid performances in the intrasquad scrimmage. Guard/forward Shaquille Johnson scored 10 points and added four rebounds, guard Brian Greene, Jr. didn't score but had two assists and two rebounds while forward Jordon Granger scored seven points and pulled in two rebounds.
Juco transfer center Asauhn Dixon-Tatum scored seven points and added five rebounds while juco transfer forward Shareif Adamu was the second leading rebounder (Rob Chubb had 10) with six while scoring four points.

Malinche (2006)
by Laura Esquivel
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Book on CD performed by Maria Conchita Alonso
Malinalli was a Native woman from Tabasco, who was given as a slave to the conquering Spaniards. Her ability to speak Spanish as well as two native languages – Mayan and Nahuatl – brought her to the attention of Hernan Cortes, and eventually she became his mistress and bore him a son. For centuries, she has been reviled as a traitor for her role in helping the Spaniards conquer the Aztec empire, but more recent research has pointed to a more complex reality.
In this lyrical, poetic novel, Esquivel gives us a strong woman with deeply held beliefs who wanted to free her people. Believing that Cortes was a reincarnation of the God Quetzalcoatl, she agreed to help him speak with Montezuma. She could not possibly have known the consequences, and she realized her mistake far too late.
I love Esquivel's writing. Her imagery is vivid and tangible. She gives equal attention to scenes of a happy childhood or vibrant festivities, as well as to scenes of destruction or death. I felt the heat and humidity, heard the cacophony of a busy marketplace, smelled the stench of a battlefield, tasted the tropical fruits and delicacies of a royal feast.
This is a decidedly Mexican novel. Esquivel infuses the story with magical realism, mysticism, and spirituality. It reminds me of the oral story traditions of my grandparents. And yet, her Malinalli is a real woman, with conflicting desires; a woman who loves or hates, feels pain and joy, and does her best to survive with her dignity and integrity intact.
Maria Conchita Alonso deserves five stars for her performance of the audiobook. She made me think of summer evenings spent sitting in the dark on my grandmother's porch hearing stories of the old days and legends of conquest or victory.
The story of Malinche is a rather interesting one.
And yet it was also a book I didn't quite enjoy reading. But somehow managed to finish. I don't know – was I already too far into the book to give it up? Or am I just reluctant to give up books, unless I really detest it? I didn't hate reading this book, it had some interesting moments. Partly because it is based on a historical figure. One I hadn't heard of before, but has such an iconic status.
And she is the almost mythical character of Malinalli, a Nahua slave turned interpreter turned lover of Spanish conquistador Hernan Cortes, who led an expedition that caused the fall of the Aztec Empire.
We meet Malinalli at her birth, her maternal grandmother, a key figure in her childhood, acting as midwife. She is sold into slavery at age five, after her grandmother's death, and eventually lands up in the Spaniards' hands. Now baptized and with her aptitude for languages, she becomes the Spaniards' translator, known as 'The Tongue'. She quickly catches the eye of Cortes, resulting in their son Martin, one of the first mestizos (person of mixed European and indigenous ancestry). It's not really a love story though, as he is obviously the one in charge, and pretty much delivers her over to one of his underlings when he's done with her.
Writing about a historical figure must be tricky. And with Malinalli, controversy is no stranger. She has been blamed for betraying her people by some, yet praised by others for saving many lives. She has been portrayed as a victim, a symbolic mother of Mexico's people, a woman of authority. Today the term malinchista refers to a disloyal Mexican.
While there are some absorbing details about life in 16th century Mexico, the awkward speech and the odd pace of the book (tedious at parts, rushed at other times) as it shifts between past and present makes for a difficult read. The chunks of spirituality strewn throughout the book resulted in my flipping through the pages, eyes a bit glazed.
Perhaps what is most telling about my experience with this book is that as I was about to return it to the library, I realised that I had another ten-odd pages to go. I thought I'd finished it already!

Malinche is a very controversial figure and it is hard to extract her own history from that of the conquistador, Hernan Cortes. Known as Malinalli in the book or Marina (her baptismal name), this is her story from childhood, being instructed by her grandmother, sold as a slave by her mother through to her meeting with Cortes.
As with Like Water for Chocolate, there is a lot of local colour and flavour in the book, I liked Malinche's descriptions of codices. Each chapter is preceeded by a codex, to give you an idea of what they are like.
Malinalli faces a dilemma, she is trying to understand the arrival of the Spanish, who were seen as the return of Quetzalcoatl, a creator god . She becomes his "tongue", translating the meeting between him and Montezuma, which ultimately led to the fall of his empire. Malinalli must deal with the reprecussions of her actions and her relationship with Cortes - being his slave, lover, translator.
Not a bad read, but I think that the love story which made Like Water for Chocolate so compelling is not here, nor is there a substitute for it.
I knew this was fiction when I picked it up. I hoped it was historical fiction, and that I would learn something of Mexico's history by reading it. I was profoundly disappointed. Instead of historical fiction, I felt like I was reading a mixture of New Age spirituality and a Harlequin romance. The book primarily describes Malinalli/La Malinche's spiritual reflections on life, with occasional breaks of a paragraph or two to describe historical places, people, or events. I'm not convinced that the religious beliefs portrayed in the book were authentic to Malinche's time and culture. Malinalli/La Malinche seemed more like a 21st century adherent to New Age beliefs than a 16th century Nahua woman.
The book's one redeeming feature is its bibliography of sources about La Malinche, Cortés, and the Spanish conquest of Mexico. I've developed an interest in this topic since becoming close to several of my brother's Mexican in-laws. Maybe I'll find what I'm looking for in one of the books in the bibliography. I certainly didn't find it here.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 074329033X, Hardcover)This is an extraordinary retelling of the passionate and tragic love between the conquistador Cortez and the Indian woman Malinalli, his interpreter during his conquest of the Aztecs. Malinalli's Indian tribe has been conquered by the warrior Aztecs. When her father is killed in battle, she is raised by her wisewoman grandmother who imparts to her the knowledge that their founding forefather god, Quetzalcoatl, had abandoned them after being made drunk by a trickster god and committing incest with his sister. But he was determined to return with the rising sun and save her tribe from their present captivity. When Malinalli meets Cortez she, like many, suspects that he is the returning Quetzalcoatl, and assumes her task is to welcome him and help him destroy the Aztec empire and free her people. The two fall passionately in love, but Malinalli gradually comes to realize that Cortez's thirst for conquest is all too human, and that for gold and power, he is willing to destroy anyone, even his own men, even their own love.

"When Malinalli, a member of a tribe conquered by the Aztec warriors, first meets Cortes, she - like many - believes that he is the reincarnated forefather god of her tribe. Naturally, she assumes that her task is to help Cortes destroy the Aztec empire and free her people. The two fall passionately in love, but Malinalli gradually comes to realize that Cortes's thirst for conquest is all too human. He is willing to destroy anyone, even his own men, even their own love." "Throughout Mexican history, Malinalli has been reviled for her betrayal of the Indian people. However, recent historical research has shown that her role was much more complex; she was the mediator between two cultures, Hispanic and Native American, and two languages, Spanish and Nahuatl."--BOOK JACKET.… (more)

Nearly 1,000 students, teachers and future Soldiers attended the 4th Army Strong Experience March 13 at Fort Benning, Ga.
Hosted by the U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit, the event featured Army Rangers, USAMU shooters and airborne training instructors providing demonstrations to bring the military closer to students, teachers and other attendees.
"A lot of centers of influences, educators and students attend this event every year and get a feel for what we do in the Army," said Sgt. 1st Class Christopher Ortega, USAMU accessions liaison.
The day began with the "Rangers in Action" demonstration by the Airborne and Ranger Training Brigade. The Soldiers demonstrated the variety of skills that an Army Ranger possesses, such as rappelling, air assault, water insertion from a helicopter and hand-to-hand combat.
Gregory Lewis, a future Soldier attending the event, said he had no firsthand knowledge of Army Rangers, but he'd always heard that it was a top echelon unit made up of some of the best fighters in the Army.
"Just getting to see some of the things they do on a daily basis ... it was pretty amazing," Lewis added.
The next stop was the USAMU's Hook Range where members of the Action Shooting Team and the Shotgun Team showcased their expert marksmen skills. Staff Sgt. Lee Dimaculangan demonstrated the speed and the skill-set needed for action shooting. Shotgun shooters Sgt. 1st Class Mark Weeks and Staff Sgt. Josh Richmond wowed the crowd while they engaged traditional and non-traditional targets, such as fruits and vegetables, out of the air.
"You see shooting on the movies and stuff, but here you actually got to watch Soldiers shoot. It's pretty amazing," Lewis said.
The day ended with the chance to jump from the 34-foot airborne tower under the watchful eye of the Soldiers of Company C, 1st Battalion, 507th Parachute Infantry Regiment.
Experiencing the demonstrations and meeting the Soldiers is why Staff Sgt. Moses Toliver and his fellow recruiters brought future Soldiers and Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps members to the event.
"One of the biggest things we have to overcome as recruiters is letting people know that we can have normal lives and serve in the military," he said. "Being able to bring them down to an installation, they get to see that we have schools, we have stores and that we even have a golf course. We're normal people and we get to serve in the United States Army, so I think that's especially helpful."
The majority of attendees were members of the JROTC programs from high schools in Georgia and Alabama where educators include the Army Strong event in their annual curriculum.
"We want them to leave with ... an actual experience of what the Army really entails. A lot of the time there is a big disconnect with what actually happens within the Army to the general American public," Ortega said. "Having them come out here they're not just listening to what the recruiter says, what they see in commercials or what they get from social media, they can actually experience and witness it firsthand."
USAMU is part of the U.S. Army Accessions Brigade, Army Marketing and Research Group and is tasked with enhancing the Army's recruiting effort, raising the standard of Army marksmanship and furthering small arms research and development to enhance the Army's overall combat readiness.

Sears Falsified information to sell product Grand Forks North Dakota
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
We bought a Nordic Track 7700 from Sears and they said it was the same exact model as Nordic Track sells and that I could buy it from Nordic Track. I know companies change the quality, motor, etc. when selling to lower quality stores (sears does not have quality merchandise for the most part). He assured me that it was the same exact machine as Nordic Track and that I could buy the 7700 directly from them. That was an untruth.
He said that the console would project to the TV screen (I'm short and can't see the console and want to do the google map routes and use the browser and be able to see it). He assured me that the browser and trail maps would all display on the TV screen so I could see them. That was an untruth.
He also told me that the ifit subscription was free with the machine I bought. I tried to pay for it and he said it was included with this machine. That was an untruth.
All of which was false. Nordic Track was very unhelpful and one person was rude and in so many words said it was my problem. If they are going to use Sears as an agent then it's their problem too.
He told me it would be 30mns to 1hour set up and simple. It was difficult, complicated and 4 hours. That was an untruth.
I posted my complaint on Sears and a representative, for the sake of customers reading these posts, asked me to send my contact info so they could help me. I sent it and never heard from them—I pretty much figured it was an empty gesture from everything I've heard about Sears customer service (oxymoron).
After many attempts to talk to the Store Manager we finally got a hold of him and he said we could return it (duh, that's the law) but he wouldn't pick it up for 2 weeks and after that he would give us our money back. My husband asked if he really wanted to lose a customer over a simple product pickup and he was completely unconcerned about it.
I have written many reviews on Sears and Nordic Track today (Nordic Track needs to sell through someone else) but hadn't written one to the Better Business Bureau (BBB) but we are going to do that tonight when my husband gets home.

Kernels stopped by Snappers
Beloit beat the Kernels 6-4, snapping the team's five-game winning streak. Joe Mauer and Ricky Nolasco head to Cedar Rapids for rehab assignments.
By Cedar Rapids Kernels | August 3, 2014 6:53 PM ET
BELOIT, Wis. - Beloit topped the Kernels 6-4 on Sunday afternoon, snapping a five-game winning streak for Cedar Rapids. Four of Beloit's runs were unearned run because of two Kernels errors. However, the Kernels won the series, their eighth in a row. The Kernels open up a home series with Wisconsin on Monday night at 6:35 p.m.
Minnesota Twins players - 1B Joe Mauer and RHP Ricky Nolasco - are also heading to Cedar Rapids and both expected to play for the Kernels on Tuesday night. Mauer is also slated to take batting practice with the Kernels on Monday afternoon. Gates open at 3:00 p.m. on both Monday and Tuesday for fans to watch batting practice.
Beloit scored the first run in all three games of the series, including on Sunday afternoon. The Snappers took a 1-0 lead in the second inning on a pair of doubles. Luis Baez doubled with one out to right-center and scored on Michael Soto's two-out, RBI double to deep left-center.
Logan Wade quickly tied the game 1-1 in the top of the third inning with his fifth home run of the season. His one-out homer snuck just over the wall in left-center and past the glove of Snappers center fielder Justin Higley, who scaled the wall.
The Snappers put up three unearned runs with two outs in the fourth inning, moving ahead 4-1. With two outs and Tyler Marincov at first base after a walk, Kernels right fielder Alex Swim misplayed a ball hit by Chih-Fang Pan. The fielding error allowed Marincov to score as Pan wheeled to third base. With the Snappers up by a run, Soto drilled his second RBI double - this one to right-center. It scored Pan and made the score 3-1. Soto soon scored as Justin Higley batted next and extended the lead to 4-1 with a RBI single to right.
Stephen Gonsalves (1-1) took the loss on the hill for the Kernels. The lefty pitched well in five innings of work, allowing four runs (one earned) on five hits. He struck out five and walked two.
Beloit increased their lead to 5-1 in the sixth inning with another unearned run against reliever Hudson Boyd. Phil Pohl led off the inning with a single. He advanced to third base when Soto reached on a two-out throwing error by Kernels shortstop Engelb Vielma. Pohl then scored on Boyd's wild pitch, putting the Snappers up by four runs.
Matt Stalcup (3-3) recorded the win for the Snappers, going five innings. The southpaw allowed one run on four hits while striking out five and walking three. Reliever Hunter Adkins pitched two scoreless innings before running into trouble in the eighth inning.
The Kernels tallied three runs in the eighth inning, trimming Beloit's lead to 5-4. Chad Christensen led off with a base on ball, beginning the rally. Alex Swim doubled to right-center to put two in scoring position with one out. Max Murphy followed with a RBI single to left, cutting Beloit's lead to 5-2. Then, Michael Quesada drove in both Swim and Murphy with a two-run double to left center as the Kernels got within one run. Sam Bragg came out of the bullpen for Beloit with two on and one out and proceeded to strike out a pair to end the inning.
Adkins went 2 1/3 innings, allowing three runs on four hits. He struck out three and walked two. Bragg ended up striking out the first four he faced and retired all five he faced for his fifth save.
Beloit picked up an insurance run in the bottom of the eighth inning against Kernels reliever Brandon Bixler. Pan drew a walk and later scored on a two-out RBI single by Branden Cogswell, pushing the Snappers lead to 6-4.
Bixler went two innings in relief, allowing one run on three hits. He struck out four and walked two.

When Apple Computer Inc. CEO Steve Jobs addresses the faithful Tuesday at the Macworld expo in San Francisco, they'll be more eager to hear his strategy for stemming the company's continuing slide at the hands of its PC-making rivals than in seeing splashy presentations of new computers, digital music players or other gadgets.
Apple, the company that introduced consumers to desktop computing, now owns just 2.3 percent of the market. That's up slightly from a low point of 1.8 percent in the fourth quarter of 2000, but still a long way from the 9.6 percent it claimed back in 1991. These days, Cupertino, Calif. -based Apple is even struggling in the key education sector, where Dell Computer Corp. has made inroads with low prices and highly rated customer support.

Income investors that have sought out alternatives to traditional dividend stocks and fixed income have largely been rewarded this year. Asset classes such as MLPs, REITs and preferred stocks offer attractive qualities — namely, their combination of high yields and non-correlated returns.
Most investors tend to flock to the oldest and largest dividend ETFs in these respective categories. That's understandable: After all, these funds are well-known and have been used successfully in the past or they represent the most diversified mix of underlying securities.
Plus, in many cases, these funds also are the most heavily traded, which provides excellent liquidity and execution when buying or selling.
However, in researching these areas I came across several smaller dividend ETFs that have surpassed their more established peers in 2014. I think they warrant a second look if you are considering alternative income sources.

we wait , we wait for it
One new phone a year I can just about afford, but releasing 2 in twelve months will be beyond my budget so I will have to start skipping purchasing each new phone
I'm sure there are lots of other people in the same boat, so all the extra R&D expenditure won't be reflected in increased sales
I highly doubt either of those images or parts are real. Even the 5s parts look fake as all h311.
Not to pick a nit, but why would we care about parts? Unless it's assembled or something spectacular I don't care.
Rumors are getting boring.
You know, here's the biggest problem I have with all of this bull dung. You are only eligible for an upgrade every 2 years and unlocked phones are pricy as hell. So all in all what kind of sales would they yield from this doltish notion of 3 phones released in one year? I mean really, people. Also writing this article about parts of all things has already cost you some credibility as a writer. Reading it has cost me IQ points, and commenting on it, I've lost some intelligence. Now I'm just as dumb as you. Write something noteworthy for a change!

SAN FRANCISCO -- Barry Bonds watched the Giants' 4-2 win over the Diamondbacks on Monday and, five years after his final game, said he'd like to return to the organization as an instructor.
Bonds was in good spirits as he addressed a few reporters before the game and joined the team's broadcast team during the game. He said he has taken up a new sport, cycling, and was in attendance for charitable reasons -- with Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Bay Area.
For the first time, he spoke openly about his court case, saying, "I'm a convicted felon for obstruction of justice, and that's who I am. I live with it. ... I went through the system. That's what they gave me. I'm in appeal right now. I was never convicted of steroids."
Bonds also addressed his Hall of Fame chances and said, "It would be very sad if it didn't happen."
He added, "I don't worry about that stuff. I'll be at home having a good time with my life and my kids. Or hopefully here. Doing some stuff for kids. And hopefully doing stuff to help the organization. That'll take care of itself. I don't need to worry about that stuff."
Bonds said his weight is down to 212 to 215 pounds, and he appeared to be in good shape despite coming off back and hip surgeries.
He is hoping to repair a reputation that he admits to being "iffy."
"I'm an athlete. I gave my life and soul to that game. That's what's heartbreaking," he said. "I gave my whole life. I did it hard for 22 years. Hard. That's the hard part of it. You sit at home and go through it. It's tough."

... 3 weeks free, then £10 franchise
... and you won't be asked for the £10 franchise until you've had a minimum of 5 pupils
This is the best deal we've ever offered, all our instructors have full diaries, hence we need more ADI's
Please ask our instructors how they are doing!!
About Pass4fun : We started trading in December 2009 with just 2 Driving Instructors, it took about 6 months to establish our School and then we got our next instructor on board, and we haven't looked back since.
Our name is now known across the region and we advertise in many different ways from Free & Signal Radio to Ads on buses, we have expanded at a steady rate and we are experiencing a major growth in bookings. If you are interested please read on.
We urge you to talk to our driving instructors either at the test centre or flag them down and find out how many pupils we give and the regularity of the bookings, Pass4fun really do deliver.
Our Driving Instructor franchise opportunities won't be available for ever as we don't commit to recruiting if we can't keep you happy! Call now and avoid disappointment. We have recruited from other driving schools and we hear how you are treated, we want to work with you in a professional manner, with mutual respect, but most of all we want to give you pupils!! If you come and have a chat and hear what we have to offer we feel sure you won't be disappointed, remember all of our instructors are happy with our performance, so what are you waiting for, pick up the phone, what have you got to lose?
Now read what some of our instructors have said....
Alan said "I can never complain about you (Pass4fun) you've been really good to me". When he joined he also had a part time job to make ends meet, he didn't keep the part time job for long after joining Pass4fun.
Andy said tongue in cheek to Lynne (Pass4fun manager) "stop calling me with pupils I can't take any more on" and he says this regularly.
Dave said "You said you would give me lots of pupils and I thought you were coming out with the bulls**t, but I was wrong you really do supply lots of pupils"
Rob said "After 13 years of being an instructor this is the first time I've gone into the new year with a full diary and it's all because of you guys at Pass4fun"
Michael one of our ADI's complained, "You said you would give me pupils, but I never expected this many!"

- "A Devastator's reach shall be without limit and his touch without mercy. Fire shall roar from his fingertips, but it shall consume him not. Thunder will roar when he calls, yet it will swallow him not. Let the Devastator squad be thy blazing wrath, bringing the light of the Emperor's justice to the darkest corners of the battlefield. Wherever he stands, that shall be his fortress of righteousness. He shall hold in his gift the fate of all who pass before his unblinking gaze. All shall fear him, and he shall fear no one."
- — Roboute Guilliman, from the Apocrypha of Skaros
Devastator Marines are Space Marines who serve in a Codex Astartes-compliant Space Marine Chapter's Devastator Squads. A Devastator Squad consists of a Sergeant and up to nine Battle-Brothers, of whom four of which are designated as Heavy Weapons Support. The Sergeant will be a Space Marine who has received extra training to equip him for his leadership role. Devastator Sergeants are also experts with all types of Space Marine Heavy Weapons, although they prefer to fight with the standard Sergeant's weapons of a Bolt Pistol and Chainsword, or other melee weapon. Their expertise means that a Sergeant can get the maximum tactical advantage from the weaponry he has at his disposal. Space Marines rely on the tactical acumen of individual Sergeants to avoid the need for complex command structures and communications networks.
The ten Battle-Brothers of a Devastator Squad fall into two groups. The first of these are the Heavy Weapons troopers. There may be as many as four Heavy Weapons troopers in a Devastator Squad, and these Marines can be armed with Heavy Bolters, Missile Launchers, Lascannons, Multi-Meltas, Plasma Cannons or Grav-Cannons. These awesome weapons provide the squad with a host of potential deployments and tactical uses. Invariably, Devastator Squads are most commonly used to counter enemy armour or to penetrate defence points, and also to provide fire support for infantry advances or pin the enemy down with suppressive fire.
Some of the Battle-Brothers in a Devastator Squad may have fought enough battles to earn Veteran status. These Marines may continue to serve with the Squad for a short time, but eventually they will be offered special duties elsewhere (such as in a Command Squad), or promoted to serve in the Chapter's elite First Company, which is comprised of Marines with Veteran status. In this way, the ranks of the Chapter's elite company are replenished. Veteran Battle-Brothers wear white helmets, while Veteran Sergeants wear a white-striped red helmet. Following their tour of duty as Devastators, Space Marines typically join the ranks of the Assault Marines.
Devastator Squads have access to more types of Heavy Weapons than most other Space Marine Squad types. In addition to Heavy Bolters, Lascannons and Missile Launchers, Devastator Marines can also field more exotic weapons such as Multi-Meltas and Plasma Cannons. The latter weapon fires balls of superheated plasma that explode on impact, making them exceptionally potent against multiple targets. The Multi-Melta is a short-range anti-tank weapon, its thermal blast able to melt through even the toughest armour. Missile Launchers wielded by Devastator Marines can fire two different kinds of missiles. Frag Missiles provide effective fire against enemy infantry, while Krak Missiles are more useful against armoured targets. Both of these missiles are relatively small, and a Devastator Marine can easily carry sufficient numbers of both types to take full advantage of a Missile Launcher's potential dual tactical use in a battle.

The general public is invited to view all sculptures which will be on display. Award winners will be announced in three assigned age categories based on overall aesthetic value and creative use of recycled materials. All participants in attendance will be recognized and receive a certificate. Instructors from the Cradle of Aviation and Portledge Summer Adventures will host interactive workshops including make your own rockets, how things fly, living in space, eyes on earth, weather to fly by, Legos, and woodworking. The new Portledge Planetarium will also be open for visitors. Afterwards, award winning sculptures will be transported to the Cradle of Aviation for a mini exhibition open to the public from April 15 through April 20. To submit an entry, log onto www.portledge.org/createsomethinggreat. Entries must be delivered April 11-12.
