There are plenty of reasons to Learn Spanish Guitar Online.
First, even if it isn't your intention to become an expert at Spanish style guitar, you will benefit from learning about this unique music tradition. Having a broad knowledge of guitar styles and techniques can help make guitarists more well-rounded players spanish guitar . Regardless of whether you are only interest in specializing in one style of guitar, learning to play a variety of styles will help your technique, playing ability, and even your creativity as a songwriter. Second, learning Spanish style guitar playing helps students learn about older and more essential guitar styles. Think of it as a history lesson in guitar-playing. What better way to become mindful of history than returning to the original techniques of the guitar?
Third, Flamenco and Classical guitars are a different shape and size to other guitars. They also use unique, nylon strings. Being able to play this type of guitar will make you a more versatile player, as you will become used to different neck thickness, action, and types of strings. Getting a particular tone out of a Spanish guitar is much different to trying to get a similar tone out of an acoustic or electric guitar. Without learning Spanish guitar online, you might become a great acoustic or electric guitar player, but appear as a beginner when playing a Spanish guitar.
Fourth, complete beginners will find the strings of a Spanish style guitar very soft compared to steel-stringed guitars. Learning on a Spanish guitar is a great starting point for developing tough fingers and finger-tips.
Fifth, Spanish style guitar playing uses unique techniques, scales, chords, and styles of strumming. By learning Spanish guitar, you'll be able to use techniques that many of even the most seasoned guitar players won't be able to copy.
Sixth, you can use the techniques and styles you learn from Spanish guitar lessons and introduce them to other styles of playing. What better to develop your own unique style of guitar playing?
Seventh, Spanish style guitar music sounds great. It has a quality and feeling that sets it apart from other styles.
Eighth, your parents' ears will be relieved. This style of music is for young and old alike, but this is a style of music that your whole family will enjoying hearing.

Another much needed climate change: Towards integrity in governance
UNODC Executive Director Antonio Maria Costa
Conference of the States Parties to the United Nations Convention Against Corruption
Nusa Dua, Bali, Indonesia, 28 January 2008
Mr. President,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
This week Bali hosts a second major conference on climate change. This time the goal is to curb corruption and foster progress towards an environment of integrity.
I hope you appreciate the metaphor.
In this meeting you can decide, and set targets so as to curtail the poisonous emissions of bribery, graft and greed that have overheated our administrations - public and private. You can promote the generation of clean power in governance: renewable energy based on the United Nations Convention against Corruption. Let me, therefore, invite you all to be as perseverant (in the negotiations) and as conclusive (in the outcome) as your peers were a few weeks ago, while attending the conference against global warming, right here in Bali.
There could be no more appropriate a host for these two Conferences than President Yudhoyono. Mr. Minister, please pass on to him our appreciation for Indonesia's generous hospitality and our respect for his leadership in reducing both global warming and large-scale corruption. We join him and the people of Indonesia in paying our respects to former President Suharto during this period of mourning.
Three tasks ahead
Ladies and Gentlemen, since you want to promote climate change in governance, I urge you to proceed step by step and concentrate on three priorities:
· Step one , explain what you have done to fight corruption in your country and to implement the UNCAC Convention;
· Step two , tell us which additional anti-corruption measures are needed, including those that may require technical assistance;
· Step three , support the quick development of a solid peer review mechanism. Corruption is a communicable disease, within and across countries: in some places, like a pandemic, it is out of control. The world expects you to evaluate the measures you have undertaken and the progress made to avoid further contamination.
Let me elaborate on these three steps and then extend the call for support to other stakeholders, most notably the corporate world. Before doing so, let me express my gratitude for the constructive support provided by the Friends of the Convention.
Step one: self-assessment
The first task this week is based on self-appraisal of what you have accomplished at the national level, and the problems encountered. So many of you (more than half of the State Parties) have completed the implementation check-list. This is a helpful step. I am, of course, concerned by the absence of the other half of the Convention's shareholders. Why so many absentees, especially from Africa? If the problem is lack of expertise, UNODC can provide technical assistance. If the problem is benign neglect, please realize that your delay is hurting others.
Self -assessment is not for the sake of ticking boxes to gratify the Secretariat or to please peers. It is an obligation sanctioned in the Convention in order to measure progress in its implementation. It is also in your self-interest: it shows you are putting your house in order, thus gaining better negotiating power in these deliberations.
To show how far we still need to go to reach the goal of measuring common progress against corruption, let me latch on to my earlier metaphor and pursue it further.
After decades-long discussions about the planet's rising temperature - the other conference's concern - a quadruple agreement was reached here in Bali in December: global warming is caused by humans; it can be quantified; measurable action is needed; and target setting negotiations are soon to start.
I hope as much for this second UNCAC conference, though we start from far behind as, at the Amman session, the agreement was embarrassingly limited.
Of course, around the world people recognize that poverty, rotten infrastructure and income inequality stem often from corruption-driven governance, both private and public. Also people realize that they can react: high costs and poor services inevitably usher in electoral tipping-points. Yet, we do not know, and cannot estimate as yet the extent of the (corruption) problem, its trends over space and time, and the impact of remedial measures. To many of you, Kyoto-type target-setting is unacceptable. This puts us at an embarrassing disadvantage with respect to our climate change friends. They can measure global warming to a very fine degree, while a measuring device to appraise progress towards integrity does not even exist.
Self-assessment is the beginning of such measurement: it addresses questions you must have had in mind before boarding the plane for Bali.
Questions like: did we apply all UNCAC preventive measures?
- Get public officials to disclose earnings and assets, and establish rules on funding to political parties and electoral campaigns?
- Create an independent anti-corruption agency and tighten up oversight of procurement and the management of public finances?
- Have we strengthened judicial integrity, and put in place measures to ensure that public officials are hired on the basis of what they know rather than who they know?
What about the issues related to criminalization and law enforcement . You must have asked yourselves:
- Have we adopted all legislative and other measures to make corruption a criminal offence?
- Does our legislation enable the freezing, seizing and confiscation of assets, as well as the protection of witnesses, experts and victims?
Corruption is best fought together, hence the importance of international cooperation .
- Are we ready to make, or respond to requests for extradition or mutual legal assistance?
- Are our law enforcement agents trained to cooperate internationally?
Finally, the vexed question of recovering stolen assets . You must have wondered, not least for the sake of self-interest:
- Do we have the laws and the oversight capacity to recover looted assets?
- Do we have financial intelligence to assist others pursuing the same goal?
Governments and UNODC alike will listen carefully to your presentations this week, to see what corruption control measures you have put in place, and how much clean, renewable public energy in government you have generated.
Step two: the need for, and the delivery of technical assistance
Our second task this week is to identify the need for, and the delivery of technical assistance. Self-assessment can help identify what still needs to be done - and why, when and how technical assistance is required.
Cross-examination of the check-lists has already provided an insight. Normative assistance (especially for model legislation) is in high demand. Help is also requested to develop national anti-corruption plans, supported by proper financial and judicial structures.
UNODC, together with other institutions attending this meeting, can put at your disposal an impressive array of expertise:
· To establish and support anti-corruption authorities;
· To declare asset ownership and procurement procedures;
· To build judicial integrity and especially honesty in the courts;
· To train government officials and financial intelligence units.
· And, of course to recover looted assets and arrest kleptocrats.
Technical assistance is a practical business, leading to tangible results. Take the example of the Stolen Asset Recovery (StAR) Initiative that Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon launched last September in New York, together with World Bank President Zoellick and myself. Developed on the basis of UNCAC, it helps states knock down barriers that make asset recovery so complex. I acknowledge the cooperation with the World Bank and warmly welcome here in Bali the StAR super-star, Managing Director Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala.
In asset recovery, time is of the essence. The media recently asked how much money we already recovered and how many crooks we put behind bars. Well: not so fast. But also: not so slow! Stolen assets rot quickly in idle bank accounts, rusty yachts, decaying real estate and devalued securities. The sooner legitimate owners engage in asset recovery, the greater the chances of finding some of the wealth looted from central banks and national treasuries.
The StAR Initiative has progressed well into its preliminary phase. Assessment missions have been carried out in two countries. We have received requests from other countries: I look forward to tomorrow's Ministerial round-table to map out the future course of action.
While the StAR alignment is good, I fear it could be disturbed by hidden gravitational forces. We have detected some black holes that threaten to pull the StAR system out of its orbit. In a number of countries, (i) at the highest level there is political will and commitment to recover stolen assets. Also, (ii) at the operational level, I have noted a desire to do the right things, even if capacity and some institutions are lacking. But these good intentions at the top and at the bottom of national administrations are threatened by un-fathomable adverse energy: (iii) middle-level bureaucrats with connections, knowledge and entrenched interests. In all areas of governance (central and local authorities, the judiciary, economic administration, the service providers), these shady intermediaries have a lot to lose by StAR and (people tell us) are trying to block its implementation. I urge you all to neutralize these black holes in your administrations, so that asset recovery can take place, inspired by politicians and put in place by technicians.
Step three: reviewing implementation
Ladies and Gentlemen,
let me turn now to the third step, your main task for this week -- to create a review mechanism as mandated by the Convention. Thanks to the 16 States participating in the pilot project, we have made good progress and learned useful lessons.
The pilot program has made it possible to assess the costs and benefits of what is needed and possible for monitoring implementation of the Convention. The 16 volunteers have opted for a non-intrusive system, strengthened by the commitment to improve it as needed. This, I hope, will be fortified by expanding the number of participating countries, by deepening and widening its coverage, and by setting a deadline for its general roll-out.
Participating states have opted for a mechanism that is:
- Constructive, rather than critical
- Need-driven, rather than imposed
- Owned by the contracting Parties, and not conceived by bureaucrats
- Accountable to peers, with third party validation,
- Based on measurable benchmarks, and therefore concrete.
With such DNA lined up, the UNCAC monitoring mechanism could become the envy of our environmental friends who are ahead in terms of measuring the earth's warming, but face even tougher target-setting negotiations in the years ahead.
In our process, success will also depend on whether we can set a centre of gravity for the entire exercise. We do not have an Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. My Office, of course, through this Conference's Secretariat has been a source of energy, with a strong mandate and an objective perspective to promote the multilateral review by administering the process. But this needs to be more structured, with clearer definition of its role. I therefore urge you all to strengthen this executive arm that has served you all - allow me to say - so well in the run-up to this Conference. To my colleagues I address an exhortation: keep working well, and you too will receive a noble (if not a Nobel) recognition.
By the end of this week, I hope you will have agreed on the review mechanism. If you decide to postpone the decision and just wish to increase the number of volunteers for another round of tests, I will feel disappointed. I will then, at a minimum, ask you to agree to commit yourselves to settle this matter at the next Conference. This also seems to be the recommendation of the Friends of the Convention. I appreciate the offer made by Qatar to host the third session in late 2009: activating the review mechanism with tasks, targets and deadlines should be the centrepiece of the roadmap to Doha.
Honest governance is good business
The climate change fostered by the UNCAC Convention cannot take place without concurrence by the private sector. Actually, it is exactly at the intersection between the public and the private sectors that I see integrity most needed - and threatened.
All too often corporations have bribed their way into public contracts. Many of them, and some of their CEOs, have paid a heavy price. But retribution and law enforcement, while needed, are not sufficient. Integrity in business must be the result of recognizable private-sector self-interest, a way of reducing the cost of business and improving a company's reputation. This can only happen if the playing-field is levelled, for example by universal respect of Article 12 of the Convention.
The challenge is to get companies to join forces with the public sector, by promoting:
- Greater cooperation with law enforcement;
- More rigorously respect for the Know Your Customer rules.
- Codes of conduct to prevent conflicts of interest, and safeguard good commercial practices.
- Extension of Publish What You Pay to other sectors, together with the Kimberly Process.
- Respect of conflicts of interest rules, to thwart (former) public officials from soliciting business from the government.
- Independent audit of off-the-book accounts, double book-keeping, fake expenditure and the destruction of financial records.
- Finally, no State should promote bribes by making them tax deductable.
In order for business to join forces, I invite it to agree to a Corporate Integrity Charter that spells out how to align operating rules to the universal principles of the UN anti-corruption Convention.
A mechanism to review compliance with the Charter - the private sector equivalent of this Conference of State Parties -- could be considered. A company's compliance with the Charter could be recognized with a UNCAC seal -- call it the Integrity Blue Emblem.
A Shared, Society-Wide Responsibility
Ladies and Gentlemen, corruption hurts us all. Fighting it is a shared responsibility.
Therefore, in addition to the formal consultations this week we have organized events to engage a cross-section of society. Let the message of this Bali Conference be clear: we all have the duty and the power to say "no" to corruption.
That includes UN bureaucrats. Our Secretary General has called on multilateral institutions to lead by example. UNODC has urged that the integrity rules of international organizations be aligned to the principles of the Convention. I am glad that the proposal that my Office made to the UN System's Chief Executives Board for system-wide Institutional Integrity is gaining momentum. I urge you all to give full support, as progress is likely to be made at the special session of UN sister organizations later this week.
I urge the representatives of civil society at this Conference to think about how they can support climate change towards integrity in governance. I ask civil society to be the system's guide dogs, not just watchdogs.
On their part, Parliamentarians, while exercising oversight, must ensure implementation of the Convention and the needed political agenda.
Media as well as writers, artists and the film industry can expose corruption and raise public awareness about its causes and its threat. They can - and should - make heroes of corruption busters (I have in mind people like Nigeria's Nuhu Ribadu) - corruption busters who are risking their lives daily. I look forward to this afternoon's special event called Artists for Integrity during which journalists, writers, and actors will highlight what they have done/can do to fight corruption. When it comes to affecting public opinion, popular culture is more effective than many inter-governmental resolutions and UN Secretariat reports.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I urge you to seize this opportunity to live up to the expectations of billions of people around the world, sick of the misuse of their resources. This sort of climate change is needed and possible: let us work together to make it a reality.

Wine Bottle as Rolling Pin
Sure, you can fork over the $40 for something you use only at Thanksgiving, but why would you when a wine bottle works just as well? Sandwich your pastry between sheets of plastic wrap or wax paper to prevent sticking. Press down firmly on the bottle with one hand; grip the neck and steer with your other. (If you chill the dough to firm it up, do so briefly: Slightly firm dough is easiest to control.)

Ex-prosecutor may face disbarment
WASHINGTON Regulators asked the District of Columbia's highest court Tuesday to strip a former federal prosecutor of his law license for his "illegal and unethical" conduct during a series of high-profile murder cases in the mid-1990s.
If the D.C. Court of Appeals decides to disbar former assistant U.S. attorney G. Paul Howes, it will be the first time in at least a decade that judges anywhere in the USA have disbarred a federal prosecutor for ethics violations in a criminal case. Disbarment is the most serious punishment that state officials in charge of policing legal ethics can impose on a lawyer.
A USA TODAY investigation last year documented 201 cases since 1997 in which courts found that federal prosecutors had violated laws or ethics rules. Although the abuses represent a small fraction of the tens of thousands of cases filed in federal court every year, each was so serious that judges overturned convictions or rebuked prosecutors for misconduct.
Even so, USA TODAY found, the prosecutors faced little risk of being punished: Only six federal prosecutors faced any type of discipline from the state offices that oversee legal ethics, and none was disbarred.
EXPLORE CASES: 201 cases with misconduct
MORE STORIES: Justice in the balance series
Tuesday's hearing came 15 years after Howes was first accused of misusing thousands of dollars of witness vouchers in high-profile homicide cases here. The vouchers are supposed to be used to reimburse witnesses for costs associated with testifying in court, but Howes authorized payments to relatives and girlfriends of informants, an internal Justice Department investigation found. The informants helped him in an investigation of a gang implicated in a series of murders in a neighborhood 3 miles from the White House.
As a consequence, the Justice Department agreed to significantly reduce prison sentences for seven convicted murderers.
Elizabeth Herman, the district's deputy bar counsel, urged judges Tuesday to deal sternly with conduct that did "tremendous harm to the criminal justice system." She said that if prosecutors here are disregarding their ethical duties, disbarring Howes "would be an important message to send to that office."
Howes' lawyer, Paul Knight, said Tuesday that what Howes did was not improper. "This is the way the United States attorney's office puts together cases. ... It's a common practice. Homicides are solved all the time that way," he said. He said Howes was a "public servant who worked night and day for the District of Columbia."
The Justice Department's internal investigation concluded in 1998 that Howes committed misconduct. Bar investigators did not become aware of the issue until 2002. Pace University law professor Bennett Gershman said the delays in hearing the Howes case show that "bar discipline is not very effective" for deterring prosecutorial misconduct. He said it might not be fair to disbar Howes so long after the alleged misconduct took place.
The Justice Department declined to comment. The court is likely to reach a decision this year.

Make a Shake in South Beach Makes Candy Drinkable
Margaux Herrera
There's a reason that Willy Wonka still appeals to us: Candy is exciting, no matter your age. So when someone decides to take crazy candies and make them into milkshakes, you know they'll be good.
Make a Shake, which opened just a few weeks ago on the corner of Lincoln Road and Alton Road in South Beach, allows you to combine any of the shop's 230 candies (including every single flavor of Jelly Belly jellybeans), chocolates, cereals, and cakes and make a milkshake ($4.95) out of them.
Apparently the expression "like a kid in a candy shop" applies to actual candy shops too. I could not stop smiling while deciding from which candy to make a shake, and looked like an even bigger fool while I drank it.
One of the owners, Mike Reynolds, kept telling me they want customers to realize they're "drinking a candy," but not until I tried my second shake (the first was Toblerone) did I understand.
My jellybean shake tasted like jellybeans. "Well, duh," you might say, but it was kind of a blow-you-away moment. All I wanted was to sit in a corner and drink it while giggling occasionally.
Co-owner Ben Way blends a shake at Make a Shake.
Margaux Herrera
Reynolds and his business partner Ben Way, who are both British, adapted the concept from a chain that Reynolds launched in England. The shakes start with a base of skim milk and fat-free frozen yogurt (that tastes a lot like ice cream), and the candy is mixed in smoothly.
Their secret to blending the add-ins: the "Will it blend an iPhone?" blenders, industrial mixers that are 3.3 horsepower. To make these monster machines even cooler, Reynolds programmed them with different settings so that each add-in will blend correctly.
Candy at Make a Shake
Margaux Herrera
Make a Shake's décor is different from anything else in South Beach. One wall is lined with rows and rows of bright treats and cow stickers, and the opposite is completely lined with wood, giving it a barn-like feel. They have also set up three iPads along a wall so that you can sit and surf the web while enjoying your creation.
Right now, you can "pick and mix" candy (79 cents per ounce), and in a week or so, you'll be able to order just the ice cream in cups (or "tubs," as the Brits refer to them).
So really, indulge your inner kid and go make a shake.

In addition to facing three AFC South teams in the usual home-and-home format, the Colts are slated to face their Super Bowl XLIV opponent — New Orleans — in an Oct. 23 road game along with 2010 AFC champion Pittsburgh in a Sept. 25 home game.
Both contests will be nationally televised by NBC Sports, along with a Dec. 4 road game with New England. The Colts and Patriots will be meeting for the ninth consecutive regular season.
Indianapolis will also travel to Tampa Bay for an Oct. 3 meeting that will be carried by ESPN. Fox Sports will broadcast the Colts' Nov. 6 home game with Atlanta and the Nov. 27 home game with Carolina. The NFL Network will televise Houston's Dec. 22 visit to Lucas Oil Stadium.
Depending on when/if the league and the National Football League Players Association come to an agreement on a new collective bargaining agreement, which would end the current lockout by NFL owners, the Colts' 2011 regular season will start on Sunday, Sept. 11 with a divisional road game at Reliant Stadium against the Texans.
It will mark the second consecutive year that Indianapolis has played its first regular-season game at Houston. The Colts will conclude the season with a New Year's Day game at AFC South rival Jacksonville.
The 2011 opponents' combined 2010 record was 133-123, giving Indianapolis the fifth-hardest schedule in the league.
Also, instead of recent seasons when the Colts had a relatively early bye week, this year Indianapolis will have Week 11 off. That's the weekend before Thanksgiving.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
Will Arizona serve me for a speeding ticket via a service or certified mail? Live in MD
Most Likely not. How do you know if you got the ticket if you have not been served?
Feel free to contact us for a consultation. Iannelli & Associates, 949 729-3171 This answer does not constitute legal advice and no attorney client relationship is created. Every case has many facts which are different and distinctly theirs, make sure that you understand this is general information and it would be advisable to constact a competent lawyer for personal legal advice.Ask a similar question
I received the ticket via mail. But it wasn't certified so AZ doesn't have any proof I received it. The fine is outrageous, almost $300 with 3 points for going 46 in a 35. I really can't afford the fine or the points. I've read on-line that if you live out of state they most likely won't serve you, therefore the ticket goes away after 120 days. I just can't get any confirmation of this and the clock is ticking for me to decide what to do. I am very grateful for any and all advice. Thanks!
The ticket was a photo radar ticket (I was in a rental car)

[b]I feel as if i am alone on this but every time i hear an update on the psp 2 or the psp phone they both sound more and more the exact same. Now they maybe 2 different products and i pray that they are, but now with the psp 2 having 3g and junk like phones have i feel as if the phone and the psp 2 are the same thing. Now if they turned out to be the same thing then it will jump a bigger shark then the psp go (which was okay) but the lack of a disc drive and 2nd joystick really killed the psp go, also the fact you couldn't buy and trade used games with it and no 2nd joystick made it D.O.A. i think that the psp go was sony testing the design and no disc drive that will be on both psp 2 and psp phone (which i think are the same thing) so if the phone and the 2nd psp turn out to be the same then whatever company is lucky enough to get the phone/video game playing/bad a** product will make more money than apple giving the iphone to AT&T and verizon. But if we wait long enough just like the iphone another company will get a hold of it. I think sony will do this to try to be able to tryto beat out the iphones app market.there are so many companies and yes even the ever more popular Iphone many trying to bank off of our needs of gaming on the go and phone mp3 playing system. If the psp 2 was the phone then it would offer a great way for online gaming on the go i think and will beat the iphone on the fact of good graphics joysticks and buttons and still having a touch screen. Here is a list of flaws of what we know about the psp phone 2 if you have any flaws/pros to add then put them in the comments.[/b]
1. no disc drive 2. no system that is not a phone 3. no ability to buy trade sell used games 4. won't be able to buy it at a gamestop anytime soon 5. not being able to trade in used systems 6. it will slide more then likely like the psp go which may lead to that function braking 7. Will only come in black in the us (maybe white as well) and 453672890 colors in japan 8. not as big of a game market upon launch
here is a list of pros to the ever coming system
thank you for reading my own theory so don't rant about freaking crap in the comments about me just being a angry fan boy or some junk like that noobs
Take a pic at these pictures and see home much of the same they are just copy and paste the links
Hope that helps good night and god bless you all

Breaking Night
Breaking Night
A Memoir of Forgiveness, Survival, and My Journey from Homeless to Harvard
By Liz Murray
Hyperion Books, Hardcover, 9780786868919, 334pp.
Publication Date: September 7, 2010
In the vein of The Glass Castle, Breaking Night is the stunning memoir of a young woman who at age fifteen was living on the streets, and who eventually made it into Harvard.
Liz Murray was born to loving but drug-addicted parents in the Bronx. In school she was taunted for her dirty clothing and lice-infested hair, eventually skipping so many classes that she was put into a girls' home. At age fifteen, Liz found herself on the streets when her family finally unraveled. She learned to scrape by, foraging for food and riding subways all night to have a warm place to sleep.
When Liz's mother died of AIDS, she decided to take control of her own destiny and go back to high school, often completing her assignments in the hallways and subway stations where she slept. Liz squeezed four years of high school into two, while homeless; won a New York Times scholarship; and made it into the Ivy League. Breaking Night is an unforgettable and beautifully written story of one young woman's indomitable spirit to survive and prevail, against all odds.
As a child, Liz Murray dealt with the typical stresses of growing up. But she also grappled with going days without food and living on the streets. Despite these obstacles, Murray finished school and went on to attend Harvard University. Murray talks about her memoir, Breaking Night. More at NPR.org

Great Benefits For Those Under Stress
Trauma, burns, infections, prolonged exercise and other stressors can deplete your body's glutamine stores. The more stress you're under, like that of a marathoner, the quicker you can deplete your glutamine supply.
Also, during calorie restriction your body might not synthesize glutamine as quickly as you need it. Consequently, researchers speculate that your body will use glutamine to fuel the brain and other body systems first. If any is left over, it will then be used to build muscle and maintain a strong immune system. That's where supplemental glutamine may help keep your tank topped off.
Less Lactic Acid*
When you exercise, your body burns glucose and glycogen for energy. This produces lactic acid, which if left unchecked, can make the muscles so acidic that they no longer contract. Glutamine plays a vital role in regulating the body's acid-base balance. 1 It helps produce bicarbonate ions that neutralize this lactic acid. A sufficient pool of glutamine may allow you to train longer and achieve greater exercise intensity.*
Stay Healthy*
It's no mystery to most long distance runners that within 1 week after race day you're likely to get sick. In fact, a recent study showed only 48.8% of those taking a placebo stayed healthy, while 80% of those taking glutamine stayed healthy. 2 Why? Researchers are discovering that strenuous exercise can reduce the effectiveness of the immune system. While most of the body's cells use glucose for fuel, the immune system requires significant amounts of glutamine. This amino acid is important for the proliferation of lymphocytes and for several key functions of the macrophages. When you take glutamine, you provide your body with the fuel it needs to stay healthy. This may allow you to train more frequently without as many of those frustrating down periods.*
NOTE: A study at Oxford University compared the health status of more than 150 runners. Half of the test subjects were given 5 grams of glutamine after a strenuous bout of exercise, while the other half took a placebo. Almost twice as many in the group with glutamine stayed healthy during the next 7 days compared to the placebo group .
Gut Health Benefits*
The human gut has two major divisions of beneficial bacteria called Firmicutes and Bacteriodetes. A few studies have uncovered a link between the ratio of these two divisions and body weight. Lower levels of Firmicutes are typically found in healthier, leaner people, while higher levels of Firmicutes are typically found in overweight individuals.
In a pilot study, 33 individuals with excess weight took 30 grams of L-glutamine or a placebo each day for two weeks. At the end of the study, the Firmicutes-to-Bacteriodetes ratio had decreased in the glutamine group by 33%, and it increased in the placebo group by 23%. (Figure 2)*
The researchers said the favorable changes to gut flora in the L-glutamine group were similar to those found in people on a weight loss program. 3 Although L-glutamine may not cause weight loss, it may support overall gut health benefits.*
This is pure (nothing added), naturally fermented, non-synthetic L-glutamine made in the USA!

Theresa "I-am-technically-challenged" Lucas
Proof that I'm technically challenged: yesterday I wanted to make a copy of a recipe that my Mom found in a magazine. I said, "No problem - our printer (at home) has the capability of making copies." I put the recipe on the glass, pressed the "copy" button, which was simply marked, and this is what came out (see below). Somehow I had managed to shrink the recipe and have it placed twice on the page (sigh). How is that even possible? LOL!

WASHINGTON (AP) — Former Vice President Dan Quayle is endorsing Mitt Romney for president.
Republican officials on Monday told The Associated Press that Quayle plans to announce his support for the former Massachusetts governor Tuesday afternoon.
Romney has an event scheduled Tuesday in Paradise Valley, Ariz., where Quayle has a home.
Quayle served as vice president under President George H.W. Bush. He was a House member from Indiana for two terms and a U.S. senator.
A GOP official familiar with Quayle's thinking says the former vice president is backing Romney because he views Romney as the most credible candidate in the race. The official requested anonymity to discuss Quayle's endorsement ahead of the official announcement.

Most Russian ballerinas spend their careers polishing and repolishing their Auroras, Giselles, Odettes and Odiles. Diana Vishneva is not most Russian ballerinas. Ever eager for a new challenge, Vishneva chose to perform Martha Graham's Errand into the Maze last June, at a gala in St. Petersburg celebrating her 15-year anniversary with the Maryinsky Ballet. "I wanted to feel the structure of Graham's choreography on my body, to see how it would fit," she says. "And I thought that Errand was exactly what I needed—I prefer to work with a partner, and I like pieces with sets and costumes, pieces that have a sense of spectacle. I knew those aspects of Errand would help me become comfortable with the new style." Her performance marked the first time Russian audiences had ever seen Graham. Their response, to both the choreography and Vishneva, was wildly enthusiastic.
Vishneva reprised the role this March in New York City, first at the Martha Graham Dance Company gala and again the same week in her own production, Diana Vishneva: Dialogues. Pointe sat in on one of her rehearsals with her partner, Abdiel Jacobsen of MGDC, and coach Miki Orihara, the Graham veteran who has worked with Vishneva from the beginning of her Errand journey.
The soloist in "Rubies" has been one of my favorite roles since the first time I danced it. I was in the corps then and it was one of my first big parts. It's so powerful and freeing. My favorite moment is when I come straight down center towards the audience, doing these sort of strutting walks on pointe. You're not playing to anyone else onstage. You're playing straight to the house. And the section with the four boys is really unusual; it's not often that a woman is onstage with four men, but she's still the one in charge. When I'm doing the penchés going offstage at the end of the first movement, I try to be calm and hope that the audience can't tell I'm trembling inside, or that my supporting leg is wobbling.
Maura Bell was determined to have a ballet career. But as a high school senior, she didn't feel ready to audition for companies yet. "I knew I had more maturing to do, both technically and as a young woman," she remembers. Bell started researching collegiate options and discovered that Indiana University's ballet department hosted a two-week summer intensive for pre-college students. "The reputation of IU spoke for itself, so I decided to do the summer intensive to get a feel for what it would be like to go there."
The deciding moment came at the end of her second week, when department chair Michael Vernon led her and fellow students on a tour of IU's Musical Arts Center. "I remember standing on that stage—it's the size of the Met— and it just clicked: This was where I wanted to be, my dream school," she recalls. Bell auditioned for the ballet department that fall. Four years later, she credits the training and connections she made at IU with her ultimate post-graduation success: a contract with Saint Louis Ballet.
College summer programs offer students a chance to experience what life would be like as a dance major, and introduce them to a wide range of possibilities for their training and future career. Even those on the fence about going to school could benefit from spending a few weeks on campus—along with the strong focus on individual development, collegiate summer intensives allow students to meet year-round faculty and current dance majors, scope out the dorms and dance facilities, and do some major networking.
I think "Emeralds" is more of an acquired taste than "Rubies" or "Diamonds." There aren't really any difficult steps, but it's extremely hard to pull off because of its simplicity. You can't just "sell it." But the musicality and simplicity come together so perfectly to make it dramatic and sweeping, and just so much fun to dance.
Former New York City Ballet principal Suzanne Farrell is famous as George Balanchine's muse, yet Balanchine wasn't the only choreographer whom she inspired. In 1984 her then-husband, Paul Mejia, also a former NYCB dancer, created a piece for her called Eight by Adler, a jazzy ballet set to the music of Richard Adler. Beginning at 0:45 after a short intro, Farrell performs the first movement in this clip from the ballet's premiere with the Chicago City Ballet.The slender, long-limbed Farrell saunters across the stage, at moments giving the audience playful smiles and sideways glances. The choreography feels improvisational, befitting Farrell's proclivity for off-balance, suspended movement. With a full jazz band onstage, the music is equally the star in this solo. Even though the slow and sultry piece is a far cry from Balanchine's fast footwork, Farrell's mesmerizing performance in Eight by Adler is a stunning example of Mr. B's famous slogan: "See the music, hear the dance." Happy #ThrowbackThursday!
"I'm kind of a collector of clothes," says Natalie Varnum. The Houston Ballet corps member turned a spare room in her home into a walk-in closet and fills it with eccentric pieces. "I love big, clear oversized sunglasses; or a high-waisted pant, socks and loafers; or a newsboy hat," she says. Varnum is inspired by icons from the '60s and '70s—Jimi Hendrix, Jane Birkin, Elton John—and she finds endless ideas on social media. She'll search Pinterest for photos, follow up-and-coming stylists on Instagram or update her own blog with "outfit of the day" posts. It was through Instagram that she recently met South Korea–based designer Sandra Meynier Kang, who reached out in hopes of collaborating and sent her a sample from her new leotard line. "It's the best way to make faraway friends now," Varnum says.
In the studio, Varnum takes a more conventional approach—sometimes. "I like a classic ballerina look, like light pink, long sleeves," she says, "or I go for something completely crazy." She commissions fun patterned leotards from her friend, former company dancer Jordan Reed, who now runs Lone Reed Designs. Her collection includes leos printed with pizza and doughnuts. Whatever she's wearing, Varnum is not afraid to stand out. "There's a time and place for a classic little black dress," she says, "but I tend to go for the more out-there pieces and colors."
Is there anything Tiler Peck can't do?
Promoted to principal at New York City Ballet by 20. Leads in everything from Balanchine's jazzy Who Cares? to classics like Sleeping Beauty to entirely new creations. A starring role in the musical Little Dancer. Check, check, check. (And that's just the beginning of the list.)
Now, her latest accomplishment is music video dancer. And we're not talking about a tiny back-up role. In Charlotte OC's new video for "Medicine Man," Peck is the sole performer of a lush contemporary ballet solo on pointe.
The past few months have brought promotions galore. We already shared Miami City Ballet's list in May as well as the major news from American Ballet Theatre last week, but we rounded up the news from nine other major companies to keep you in the loop.
The Royal Ballet
Exciting news came from London last week when Yasmine Naghdi was promoted to principal dancer after what director Kevin O'Hare called an "extraordinary year." Additional promotions include Matthew Ball and Marcelino Sambé to first soloist, and Reece Clarke, Benjamin Ella and Anna Rose O'Sullivan to soloist. Hannah Grennel, Calvin Richardson, Gina Storm-Jensen and David Yudes will take on the rank of first artists.

San Francisco Ballet
With the retirement of longtime principal Lorena Feijoo and husband and wife team Davit Karapetyan and Vanessa Zahorian after the 2017 season, SFB had big (ballet) shoes to fill. In June the company announced ten promotions, including eight new members and six apprentices. Who's moving up? Jennifer Stahl (check out her crunchy kale recipe here) has been promoted to principal, and Isabella DeVivo, Jahna Frantziskonis (our February/March cover star), Esteban Hernandez and Steven Morse will be soloists. Filling those spots in the corps are SFB apprentices Alexandre Cagnat, Shené Lazarus, Davide Occhipinti, Nathaniel Remez and Isabella Walsh. Ulrik Birkkjaer and Ana Sophia Scheller are coming into the company as principals as well as a list of new corps members including English National Ballet dancer Madison Keesler. This spring will bring SFB's exciting Unbound festival of new works, and we're looking forward to seeing these dancers get their moment in the spotlight.

Reuters reports:
The Navajo Nation, the largest Indian reservation, has backed a bill to ban gay marriage, although the tribal president is still deciding whether to oppose the measure, his spokesman said on Monday.
George Hardeen, spokesman for Navajo Nation President Joe Shirley Jr., said the tribal council backed the measure 63-0 last week despite Shirley's past opposition to such a ban.
Those bigoted Injuns! But it isn't their fault, as Reuters explains:
Historians says Native Americans once tolerated gays in their community but turned against them after the European arrival to North America changed social attitudes.

The Town of Mansfield and the Mansfield Downtown Partnership celebrated the Grand Opening of the Nash-Zimmer Transportation Center on Monday, April 14, 2014.
The Nash-Zimmer Transportation Center is an innovative project funded by the Federal Transit Administration (FTA). The Town of Mansfield received $4,940,000 as part of the FTA's Bus and Livability Grant Program to construct an intermodal transportation hub and transit pathway.
"We're proud to help Mansfield build a more walkable, sustainable community," said Deputy Federal Transit Administrator Therese McMillan. "Transit ridership across the country is at its highest level since 1957, thanks in part to the growing demand for real transportation choices in communities like this one."
The Nash-Zimmer Transportation Center is conveniently located in the heart of Storrs Center, Mansfield's new mixed-use, pedestrian-oriented downtown. The Nash-Zimmer Transportation Center provides easy access to Windham Region Transit District (WRTD) buses and UConn shuttles, allowing residents to take advantage of public transportation within town and the region. Peter Pan bus line has added the Nash-Zimmer as a stop, providing access to Hartford, Providence, and Boston via public transit. An innovative information technology system helps riders track the location and arrival and departure times of their desired bus both inside and outside of the center.

The Nash-Zimmer Transportation Center also features amenities for cyclists. For cyclists who commute by bike, there is an opportunity to join a commuters' club for access to showers, indoor bicycle storage, and lockers. For the casual rider, there are bicycle racks just outside of the Nash-Zimmer for easy access when visiting the shops, restaurants, and offices in Storrs Center.
Adjacent to the Nash-Zimmer Transportation Center, the Storrs Center parking garage features charging stations for electric vehicles and serves as a pick-up/drop-off location for the Hertz on Demand shared vehicle program.
Throughout Storrs Center, wide sidewalks with ample lighting, street trees, and benches create a pleasant environment for pedestrians. The close proximity of many different types of restaurants, retail shops, offices, and apartments encourage residents and visitors to walk to varying destinations. E. O. Smith High School, Mansfield Community Center, Mansfield's Town Hall, the Post Office, and the UConn campus are all within easy walking distance of the Nash-Zimmer Transportation Center, further reducing the need for vehicles for Mansfield residents and visitors.
United States Congressman Joe Courtney; Secretary of the State Denise Merrill; State Senator Donald E. Williams, Jr.; State Representative Gregory Haddad; State Representative Linda Orange; Elizabeth Paterson, Mayor, Town of Mansfield; Mary Beth Mello, Region 1 Administrator, Federal Transit Administration; Vicki Shotland, Executive Director, Greater Hartford Transit District; William Wendt, Director of Logistics Administration, UConn; Janet Freniere, Manager, Transportation Services, UConn; Karen Zimmer; and Lon Hultgren, Retired Public Works Director/Town Engineer, Town of Mansfield participated in the ceremony.

"Life (X) Three" falls short
Edward Albee created the gold standard for the inherent drama when two couples of different status and experience depth gather over alcohol and mixed ambition and let the knives begin to slice and dice.
"Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf" premiered in 1962, won a Pulitzer Prize and was made into one memorable movie. We have all seen the emotional decay in the verbal screed of George and Martha and Nick and Honey.
Move ahead 50 years to Milwaukee's Boulevard Theatre, where "Life (X) Three" runs until Oct. 14. The play – by the marvelous Yasmina Reza, the French playwright who created both "Art" and "Gods of Carnage" – explores the same equation that Albee defined.
But, while Albee has passion and depth and desire on flaunting display, Reza has resorted to a gimmick that is a Halloween of a play, but much more trick than treat.
The setup is simple enough. Henry and Sonia are one couple. He's an astrophysicist and she is a lawyer who doesn't practice much law. The other couple is Hubert and Inez. He is also an astrophysicist and she doesn't work at all.
Hubert and Inez are due to arrive for dinner tomorrow night, but they come one night early and we are expected to believe that the only things in the house are some chocolate fingers and Cheetos.
The two men are both competitors and colleagues. Hubert is in either the middle or the start of a fling with Sonia. Inez has a run in her nylon, something we hear about repeatedly, but never see.
That is one of the major problems with this play. They tell us what is happening, but nobody ever shows it to us. They keep saying how drunk everyone is getting, but we don't really see anyone getting drunk until the very end, when Inez plays her inebriation for laughs rather than for pity or sympathy for her fall from her peculiar kind of grace.
Reza needed a gimmick for her play and she found it in the idea of letting the audience see the same scene three times, with some subtle differences that are designed to make us laugh and squirm and remain entranced at the degeneration of these four people.
We should be so lucky.
We don't ever see any real plummeting, either emotionally or intellectually, from any of the four actors. We don't feel sorry for any of them. No pity. No … nothing.
A big part of the problem is the play itself, which feels like the first draft of a work. You have to pay attention and have deep care about every word when you write a play, but in this one the words tumble out without sense or reason. What Reza needed instead of a gimmick, was an editor.
Another part of that problem, perhaps a major part, comes from the wooden acting of the two men – Joe Drilling, who plays Henry, and Siddhartha Valicharla, who plays Hubert. Both actors are unsure of their lines, leading to some very awkward pauses as they search for where they should be. This clearly causes problems for the women – Jamieson Hawkins, who is perfectly buttoned up as Sonia, and Rachel Lewandowski, who is a befuddled Inez.
None of the four players in this play listen to what the others are saying. You can't have a good argument without listening to your foe. Here the actors, especially the men, just speak their lines as if they have no reason to be saying them other than the fact that they were written in the script.
Boulevard exists in kind of a nether region in the Milwaukee theatrical firmament. For almost three decades, Mark Bucher has held his tiny band of warriors together, sometimes with little more than rope and hope. But he has created many fine performances.
Moreover, he has a well-deserved reputation for giving wings to seldom-produced plays and for putting emerging actors on a path that will hopefully lead them to success. He deserves all of the accolades that can be heaped on him for a tireless dedication.
That's why this play is such a disappointment. Boulevard deserves better.
In the middle of the play, Henry looks at his wife and his guests and says, "It's been kind of a disjointed evening, hasn't it?"
He doesn't know the half of it. He should have been sitting where the audience was sitting.

Nationals 5, Braves 2 (Game 2): Roger Bernadina had an RBI single to snap a tie in the seventh inning and John Lannan won his season debut as host Washington ended a three-game losing skid by salvaging the nightcap of the doubleheader.
After exiting with an ankle injury in the opener, Bryce Harper entered the nightcap as a pinch hitter in the eighth inning. The rookie showed no ill effects after ripping a two-out single and stealing second before coming around to score on Danny Espinosa's RBI single.
The Nationals avenged a 4-0 loss in the opener to maintain their 2 1/2-game lead over the second-place Braves.
Bernadina collected his third hit after he ripped a changeup from Cristhian Martinez (4-2) into right field to plate Sandy Leon and give Washington a 3-2 lead.
Bernadina's single made a winner out of Lannan (1-0), who was recalled from Triple-A Syracuse prior to the contest. The Nationals' 2009 opening day starter, Lannan allowed two runs on five hits in seven innings.
Sean Burnett struck out a pair in the eighth inning before Tyler Clippard retired the side in the ninth for his 16th save. Clippard had allowed seven earned runs while failing to secure two of his last three save opportunities.
GAME NOTEBOOK: Chipper Jones had an RBI double in the first inning and came around to score on the first of Freddie Freeman's two singles. ... Jones was hit by a pitch for just the 18th time in his career. ... Lannan posted a 6-8 mark with a 4.60 ERA with Syracuse.

Portsmouth Police K-9 Kai has joined the force!
There is a new ROOKIE in town.
The Police Department has a new rookie on board. K-9 Kai, a 22 month old German Shepherd Dog imported from Germany 15 months ago, was certified as a police dog along with her handler Officer Tim Black on Monday October 31st, 2005 in Windham Maine.
K-9 Kai and Officer Tim Black attended training at the Working Dog Foundation sponsored NH Police K-9 Academy located at the NH Air National Guard Base in Portsmouth, NH. for the past several months (for more information on the police dog academy you can check their website out at www.workingdog.org ). During this 400 hours basic training, she trained beside 35 other police dogs learning how to track lost and missing persons, find burglars hiding inside buildings, locate discarded evidence, jump fences, protect her handler (criminal apprehension) and the basics of dog obedience and agility.
The certification test by the national United States Police Canine Association (for more information on the USPCA you can check out their web site at www.uspcak9.com) was attended by 18 other K-9 Teams from across Maine and New Hampshire. The test judged the ability of the dog team in the following area's
Obedience test (exercise involves heeling off leash, sit, down, stay, distant hand signals, recall, down in motion, sit in motion and obedience thru a crowd of people)
Agility test (exercise involves the K-9's ability to surmount objects such as a 4 foot fence, a high wall, a low crawl, a broad jump, and a crawl thru a tunnel/culvert)
Tracking test (test involves the ability to track a person for a min of 1/2 mile thru various terrain's AND with other human contamination along the way to verify the dog can track a single person's scent)
Building Search (test involves the ability for the dog to locate AND BARK at the presence/exact location of 2 hiding people inside a large building)
Criminal Apprehension (involves the dogs ability to apprehend a simulated violent person fighting with the officer, a fleeing felony chase and apprehension, the verbal recall of the dog while in pursuit of a person, the release by a voice command of the dogs bite, the ability of the dog to do all these things while also under simulated gunfire--dog MUST ATTAIN A 100% pass rating).
Evidence Recovery (test involves the ability of the dog to locate 3 pieces of evidence such as a metal screwdriver, a drivers license or a piece of fabric that has been dropped or discarded by a person along a 1,000 square foot tall grass area.
This is the first certification for K-9 Kai and this also represents her graduating the basic police dog academy. Officer Tim Black has been the handler of K-9 Turbo for the past 4 years and has been thru a number of certifications to include this patrol dog test as well as the narcotics detector dog tests. K-9 Kai will now begin her training as a drug detection dog with an anticipated test date in Spring of 2006.
Officer Tim Black and K-9 Kai can be made available for in person interviews and photo opportunities by calling 603-610-7539. The Portsmouth Police K-9 Unit has been in service since 1985 and since that time has been responsible for thousands of arrests, dozens of lost persons located and over 1 million dollars in drugs seized. They also conduct various public relations demonstrations throughout the year to thousands of children and adults. Capt. David Ferland, 603-610-7406

Balkan nations face an array of domestic and external challenges as they grapple with the sudden arrival of refugees using the region to head northwards. The crisis in Ukraine and the return of Cold War rivalries cast a dark shadow over nations even as the EU pushes the pause button on Balkan membership aspirations. There is, however, a new – but fragile – mood of cooperation in the region as countries step up their transport and energy connections and foreign investors seek out business opportunities despite continuing economic uncertainties.
In the framework of this European Policy Summit, Friends of Europe and the European Office of the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung have been addressing issues affecting the Balkans for over a decade, enabling senior policymakers from the region to share their concerns and ideas with EU and member state policymakers.

Session III – BALKAN PARTNERSHIPS
08.30 – 09.00 Welcome coffee and registration of participants
The governments of the Western Balkan nations are facing a range of common yet potentially divisive threats. The most immediate is the unprecedented flood of refugees and economic migrants heading northwards and imposing severe strains on Balkan transit countries. These tensions would be more damaging still were it not for a sense of greater political maturity in the region, along with a shared commitment to eventual EU accession. There are also other external difficulties piling on top of familiar internal ones like poor governance, weak rule of law and faltering economic progress. The Ukraine crisis and the return of Cold War animosities is reviving centuries-old loyalties, and, perhaps endangering conflict resolution mechanisms in Kosovo¹ and Bosnia and Herzegovina. Overlaying all these challenges there is Brussels' "enlargement standstill" until 2019 at earliest, and the risk that this may see a slowing of reform efforts in the candidate countries.

10.15 – 10.45 Coffee break
The severe flooding that hit the Danube Basin countries in 2014 triggered a wave of intra-Balkan cooperation as governments, local authorities and communities joined forces with the EU and agencies like the UNDP to strengthen defences against future disasters. This has since been followed by a new mood of partnerships and policy collaborations between the six Western Balkan nations grouped within the Regional Cooperation Council. Heavy emphasis was laid at the Western Balkans summit in Vienna at the end of August on transport and energy inter-connections that will create powerful economic synergies as well as badly needed new jobs. The global recession has reportedly doubled the average unemployment rate in the region to around 40%, and with incomes still at only a third of Western European levels the pressures for cross-border partnerships are more insistent than ever.

The word is that attractive business opportunities now await foreign investors in the Balkans. Turkey's private sector has in recent years expanded its trade and investments in the region sixfold to $17bn, and the major steelmaker ArcelorMittal is championing its own involvement there. IMF analysts have paid tribute to what they say is the region's "major economic transformation over the past 15 years." But the other side of the coin has been the economic damage wreaked by the worldwide slowdown, with the result that foreign direct investment (FDI) has in fact been running at only two-thirds of 2007 levels. The challenge for Balkan countries is now to help would-be investors to identify opportunities ranging from niche markets to infrastructural necessities and then smooth their way through their uncertain business and legal environments. Their shared target of raising added-value in manufacturing from today's 12% to 29% by the end of this decade may look highly ambitious, but attaining it will depend on creating a truly Balkan marketplace.

While wrought iron fencing can be a beautiful addition to any home, it can also pose some problems for deer.
Young deer (fawns and even yearlings that are too small to jump over the fence) often try to squeeze through the middle, according to information provided by Sierra Wildlife Rescue (SWR). Their shoulders are narrower than their hips and so they often get stuck halfway through a wrought iron fence. They don't understand reverse and so they continue to push forward, often because they were following their mother and she's now on the other side.
Left in this predicament, the fawn can cause itself serious injury or even death if not rescued quickly. The best thing to do is to approach the fawn from the front, cover its eyes with a hand towel to calm it down, and push it backward until it's free. If it can then get up and run off, it will probably be fine. If it is unable to run off, then its injuries will require medical attention and you can call SWR for help. Dave Cook, a fawn rehabilitator with SWR who lives in Shingle Springs, can be reached at (530) 363-4848.
Cook can also be called for advice on how to make some adjustments to your wrought iron fencing that will make it less likely to become a hazard for deer as a starting point.
Tight-weave field fencing can be easily added to the bottom portion of the wrought iron to prevent fawns from even attempting to go through. If you have the sharply pointed style of wrought iron, a decorative railing can be installed along the top to prevent deer from becoming impaled if they try to leap over and don't quite clear the fence, an occurrence that usually results in the deer's death.
Assistance with wildlife-related issues involving other types of animals can be obtained by calling SWR's general number, (530) 621-4661, to obtain a referral number so you can contact a specialist dealing with that specific animal.

By Larry Olmsted Special for USA TODAY
The accuracy of Newport's nickname, "America's First Resort," is debatable. What's certain is that Newport and the surrounding Rhode Island coastline have been a popular second-home destination for more than 150 years.
Newport was the choice for summer mansions of 19th-century robber barons, including the Vanderbilts and Astors. Vacation homes here served as the "summer White House" for John F. Kennedy and Dwight Eisenhower. The historic mansions remain and are among the most popular visitor attractions, but contemporary second-home owners have many affordable options, too.
"One attraction is that even in our most exclusive towns, you are not priced out of the second-home market like you are in a lot of resort areas," says Paul Leys, co-owner of Gustave White Sotheby's International Realty.
ARCHIVE: Find more second-home destinations
"Newport," he says, "is the best known outside the region because of its mansions and the America's Cup (sailing race), but the entire coastline is appealing to vacation-home owners. Watch Hill is quieter and less well-known nationally, but even more exclusive. Narragansett is more modest but has a lot of cottages where you can walk out your door onto the sand. "
The area is primarily a summer destination, although Newport is big enough to sustain visitor traffic year round. Besides its mansions, many of which have extensive art collections, other big attractions include: the city's Cliff Walk, beaches, the International Tennis Hall of Fame and all things sailing. There are several renowned sailing schools, plus charters and sightseeing trips.
The state's coastline, from the borders of Connecticut to Massachusetts, is only about 50 miles long. "The whole stretch has a lot of small beach communities," Leys says.
Newport and Watch Hill are known for their elaborate "shingle-style" architecture. Narragansett and smaller towns feature beach cottages or larger Victorian-style homes. Historically, buyers from Boston have favored Newport (an hour and 45 minutes away), while those from the New York area opt for Watch Hill (under 3 hours). The coast also attracts a large number of Floridians.
A look at three coastal Rhode Island neighborhoods
• Watch Hill. The biggest news was the June 1 reopening of the historic Ocean House hotel after a $140 million renovation. The resort has a private beach and 23 new residential units starting at $1.5 million. "We are very excited," says Newport real estate broker Paul Leys. "There's nothing like it around here, the combination of a luxury hotel and condos. Until it opened, it was impossible to appreciate the level of quality in the finishes, carpentry, materials, and it gives owners the oppor-tunity to generate income through the hotel when not in use." Watch Hill, on a small peninsula close to the Connecticut border, offers mostly single-family homes starting in the high $300,000s — and going much higher. "There are several $20 million properties here," Leys says.
• Newport. Set on Aquidneck Island, Newport is a city and a reference to the entire island, which includes the towns of Portsmouth and Middletown. "People think you can't get anything here under a million, but that could not be farther from the truth," Leys says. "There is plenty in the $300,000s, and we sell a lot of second homes in the four- to six-hundred range, even though you can spend a lot more." A number of condos on the island start at about $300,000.
• Narragansett. The appeal here is there are many more true beachfront homes, offering more bang for the buck than in Newport or Watch Hill. But prices start about the same; most properties run from $300,000 to $600,000. There are more condos than Watch Hill and fewer than Newport, though most of the market is single-family homes. The town is in the center of the coastline, port for the ferry to Block Island and offers a range of water sports.
High price: $2,490,000
Midrange price: $495,000

Of course, we won't know for sure until someone tries it and I have TONS of batteries already, so I probably will not be doing either of these deals. I suggest doing this deal and planning on receiving back $5 (but hoping you get back both offers for a total of $10.)
Through 1/30/17, you can buy $15 of Energizer Batteries in a single transaction and submit for a $5 Visa eGift Card good for online/telephone purchases. Don't opt for the physical gift card or it will only be $2 after they deduct $3 for shipping it to you. The limit on this rebate is FOUR. More info about this rebate is here.

The S&P/Case Shiller index of home prices in 20 cities increased a seasonally-adjusted 0.6% in November.
Home prices in the metropolitan areas included in the index surged 5.5% compared to the same time last year. That marked the biggest year-over-year price hike since August 2006, Reuters noted.
November's seasonally-adjusted price rise matched econmists' estimates. Home prices have risen for ten consecutive months, suggesting that the housing market continues to recovery.
In both 2009 and 2010, home prices rose for nine-consecutive months. Home sales in those years were aided by a federal tax credit for home purchases.
Housing stocks posted gains on the good news. Shares of D.R. Horton (NYSE:DHI) surged more than 9%, while Ryland (NYSE:RYL) rose more than 2% and Toll Brothers (NYSE:TOL) gained almost 1% in Tuesday midday trading.

The lecturer said that from the evidence of the mummy generally supposed to be his, amenhotep IV.
The only quarter in which amenhotep warred was towards Ethiopia.
She was for many years joint ruler with her son, amenhotep I, who succeeded his father.
amenhotep's aim was certainly rather to capture than to kill.
Out of the booty captured he sent amenhotep several chariots and horses, and a boy and a girl.
Every human passion, every incident springing out of a human passion to-day, had its counterpart in the time of amenhotep.
That night, the stern-wheeled tub, the amenhotep, lurched like a turtle on its back into the sands by Beni Hassan.
Tribute was exacted and was paid with some regularity until the time of amenhotep IV.
The next morning, amenhotep's Uraeus was gone and the corpse of Jason's man was found—part of it.
He was in the grasp of a whirlpool so strong that it twisted the amenhotep in her course.

Guide to Buying Jewelry
One of the most popular gifts to buy for Valentine's Day is jewelry. If you do plan to purchase jewelry for that special someone, check out the jewelry buying tips from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). This page includes important questions you should ask when you're at the store and what to watch for in online stores.
If you have a complaint about the jewelry you purchased, the FTC recommends trying to resolve it with the seller first. If you're not satisfied with the results, you can contact the FTC, the Better Business Bureau, the Attorney General's office, or the Jewelers Vigilance Committee, a non-profit organization supporting ethical practice in the jewelry business.
