Courses are academic classes taught by qualified instructors that are intended to enhance participant's knowledge of a given area or training in a particular discipline. Courses vary broadly in terms of length, size, content and duration.
Programs in the Arts range from philosophy to English, vocal performance to instrumental performance, and even culinary arts or fashion. The thread that connects arts programs is that they all have to do with creative learning.
Education in the United States is mainly provided by the public sector, with control and funding coming from three levels: state, local, and federal, in that order. The common requirements to study at a higher education level in United States will include your admissions essay (also known as the statement of purpose or personal statement), transcript of records, recommendation/reference letters, language tests

LANTUS (insulin glargine [rDNA origin] injection) is a sterile solution of insulin glargine for use as a subcutaneous injection. Insulin glargine is a recombinant human insulin analog that is a long-acting (up to 24-hour duration of action), parenteral blood-glucose-lowering agent [See CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY]. LANTUS is produced by recombinant DNA technology utilizing a non-pathogenic laboratory strain of Escherichia coli (K12) as the production organism. Insulin glargine differs from human insulin in that the amino acid asparagine at position A21 is replaced by glycine and two arginines are added to the C-terminus of the B-chain. Chemically, insulin glargine is 21A-Gly-30Ba-L-Arg-30Bb-L-Arg-human insulin and has the empirical formula C267H404N72O78S6 and a molecular weight of 6063.

Three concussions plus a few other injuries in 3 seasons? I think if no team signed him it would probably be the best thing for his future. He is playing with fire. To anwser your question I have no interest in chasing another receiver to compete with the rest of our bottom of the barrel guys that probably will not make it through the season.

Jasper Design Automation launched three new Proof Accelerators: Formal Scoreboard, Model RAM, and Model Multiplier. Proof Accelerators increase the power, the capacity and the performance of formal verification by significantly reducing the state-space of a design through optimized modeling of common design functions. Proof Accelerators are ideal for data transfer integrity, FIFO and memory modeling, data synchronization across clock domains, and cache verification.
Formal Scoreboard 2
The latest version of Formal Scoreboard is used to prove the integrity of data transfers across a design. Its multiple input and output ports make it possible to verify many different types of data transfers, such as transfers relying on byte enables and bus-width conversion, or serial-to-parallel conversion. To further improve performance and usability, Formal Scoreboard 2 has an updated and more versatile user interface.
Model RAM
Model RAM makes memories tractable, providing a means of achieving full, unbounded proofs on properties that involve logic containing memories. It achieves this goal by providing a flexible abstraction that enables the formal engines to abstract the majority of the specified memory while preserving those parts of its behavior that are needed to achieve the proof.
Model Multiplier
Multiplier verification can affect the state-space of a design, but this component provides a "formal safe" method for modeling multipliers ideally suited for complex designs such as DSPs and graphics/video/network processors.

Freshmen fuel all four top seeds in tourney
Talented players also good friends
By Andy Gardiner
They have known each other for years, thrown together by their exceptional basketball talent in summer leagues and national tournaments. Although each chose a different college, they have remained in touch through text messages, e-mails and tweets.
This weekend they will try to bring their teams another step closer to a national championship, a quartet of freshmen who have stepped into the starting lineups of the top four seeds in the NCAA women's tournament and flourished.
Odyssey Sims of Baylor, Bria Hartley of Connecticut and Meighan Simmons of Tennessee are point guards. Chiney Ogwumike plays forward at Stanford. Although each of their teams is led by a conference player of the year, all might have a hard time challenging for a championship without the precocious first-year players.
Other freshmen have also been central to their teams' success this season. For example: Shoni Schimmel at Louisville, Aaryn Ellenberg at Oklahoma, Chelsea Gray at Duke and Stefanie Dolson at UConn. But none has made as big an impact as the Big Four.
"The common thread is confidence," Stanford coach Tara VanDerveer said. "They are not fazed by the limelight. The big games bring out the best in them."
Talent helps, and Tennessee coach Pat Summitt said this foursome has that without question.
"These players made immediate impacts at a high level," Summitt said. "Who would have thought you'd have freshmen putting teams on their backs and carrying them?"
The top four regional seeds have advanced to the Final Four once since the NCAA women's tournament began in 1982.
"We are all good friends, and they are great players to be around � it would be neat if we all made it to the Final Four," Hartley said. "It would be the top four teams in the country, and anyone could win."
Bria Hartley
The original plan at UConn this season was to have Hartley come off the bench while learning from senior point guard Caroline Doty. That idea died when Doty went down with a torn knee ligament during the summer.
Hartley was thrust into the starting lineup and has played like a high-wire act, alternately frustrating and encouraging coach Geno Auriemma. He has tossed her out of practice more than once and is quick to remind Hartley that she's the first UConn point guard in 20 years with more regular-season turnovers than assists.
But it was Hartley � not two-time national player of the year Maya Moore � who hit the key shots in an early-season showdown with Baylor.
"Up until the last five minutes of the game she wasn't a factor offensively. And with freshmen, usually if they haven't done it by then, they aren't going to do it," Baylor coach Kim Mulkey said. "But then she took the big shots against us and hit them."
Hartley said it was nearly midseason before she found a consistent comfort zone on the court.
"As a freshman you don't know much. A lot is thrown at you," she said. "But Coach Auriemma is constantly challenging you and has a knack for pushing you in the right direction."
Odyssey Sims
Sims was recovering from knee surgery when she arrived at Baylor and was expected to come off the bench for a Lady Bears team that returned seven of its top eight players from its 2009-10 Final Four team. That luxury was lost when senior point guard Kelli Griffin quit the team just before the season.
"It was going to be a great setup � a freshman learning from a senior," Mulkey said. "But then we had no choice. It wasn't fair to Odyssey, but after one game I knew she could handle it."
Sims had 17 points and six rebounds in that battle with Connecticut and hit nine three-point shots during a victory against Oklahoma later in the season. She is Baylor's best on-the-ball defender as well.
"It was a lot of pressure at first � the game is so much faster," Sims said of being thrust into the starting lineup. "But I just try to let the game come to me and listen to Coach Mulkey."
Mulkey occasionally has to remind Sims to get the ball more often in the hands of 6-8 sophomore center Brittney Griner, but that's about the lone criticism.
"We knew Odyssey was talented enough to do all the things she has," Mulkey said. "We knew she could shoot and play great defense. What surprised us is her ability to handle the ball without turning it over."
Meighan Simmons
Lady Vols coach Summitt said Simmons, whose nickname is "Speedy," was the quickest guard her team ever had.
"I didn't necessarily project her as a starter right away, but Meighan was a player I knew right off we had to get into the mix," Summitt said. "She has speed, acceleration and an attack mentality. Our fans love her."
Playing Simmons at the point allowed Summitt to shift Shekinna Stricklen to off guard, where she won Southeastern Conference player-of-the-year honors. Simmons probably will return to her more natural position of off guard next year.
"I came in just trying to find my place and fit in with my teammates," Simmons said. "Being at point wasn't that bad. You have to be versatile and be able to play different positions."
Like Hartley, Simmons had more turnovers than assists this season, a stat the Lady Vols staff has worked to reverse.
"She plays too fast at times, and the little things she got away with in high school won't fly at this level," Summitt said. "She has to study the game instead of just running up and down the floor, and she's done that.
"In the time that we've had her she has improved across the board. I am so glad we have her."
Chiney Ogwumike
After recruiting Nneka Ogwumike two years earlier, Stanford coach Tara VanDerveer was determined to unite her with her younger sister in Palo Alto, Calif.
"Obviously, I watched her a lot," VanDerveer said. "I didn't want to throw her into the deep end of the pool, but then she jumped in. From the get-go she was our best rebounder, and my assistants convinced me we had to have her out there."
Ogwumike (oh-GWOOM-ih-kay) made a seamless move into the Cardinal starting lineup. She has had nine double-doubles this season, including 18 points and 15 rebounds in a key game at UCLA late in the season when her sister was sidelined with an injury.
"I never really looked at myself as having a transition period," Ogwumike said.
"I'm a freshman, and I'm going to make freshman mistakes. But Coach VanDerveer expects me to compete. My motivations are to get the job done and be there for my teammates."
What has surprised VanDerveer most about her freshman is Ogwumike's fearlessness.
"She has been so tough, and it shows itself when things aren't going her way," VanDerveer said.
"She never makes excuses. She just redoubles her efforts. She says, 'All right, tell me what to do and put me back in the battle.' I love that."

Technical Reference Guides for Designing
Mission-Critical OLTP Solutions
The guides in the series, Technical Reference Guides for Designing OLTP Solutions, assist with the planning and design of online transactional processing (OLTP) in SQL Server. These guides reflect the knowledge gained by Microsoft while working with customers on mission-critical deployments. Each guide provides not only the key technical concepts and information helpful for design, but also "lessons learned," best practices, and references to customer case studies. Most of the information in these guides tends not to be version specific and spans concepts consistent from Microsoft SQL Server 2005 through Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2.
Use these technical reference guides after you have made the conceptual architectural decisions to address specific business needs and are ready to work through the technical design alternatives to choose a solution.

Disclaimer: The characters and places in this story are all the property of JK Rowling. I have merely borrowed them and given them my own little twist.
Rating: PG
Note: I use the HP Lexicon as a reference and if the information is not concrete in there I make it up to suit the story. Various secondary characters are placed in years that are most convenient
This story and the Lupin story are now HBP and DH compliant. The changes include things like Andromeda being placed in the correct house and Professor Mistry becoming Professor Slughorn (as was pointed out to me, he was practically in character anyway so just needed a name change). The first couple of parts on the Snape story are very much in the tone of my Snape POVs, using the information we discover in DH and elaborating and extending on the same. I hope you don't mind.
Some changes are small some are larger, however if you have already read the story so far you will NOT have to re-read it in order to make sense of what is happening. There are a few little things that haven't been altered but they are things that will either
- Mean those already following the story will have to re-read
- Be impossible to alter because they affect the main plot (yeah I do actually have one – despite appearances to the contrary!)
- Probably small enough that they won't be noticed but too difficult to change (e.g. I put free classes (on the mornings following Astronomy classes) into the time tables for the first years which they shouldn't have until the sixth year. Since it took forever to get a working timetable for the two of houses and I have it for reference throughout altering it now would be practically impossible.)
This story is designed to run alongside my Origins: A Young Remus Lupin Story. They do stand alone but please consider checking out the other one too.
Thank you to everyone who takes the time to read this story and especially to those who take the time to leave reviews. They are much appreciated.
Origins: A Young Severus Snape Story
Part 1 - First Impressions - The Hogwart's Express
Platform 9¾ was almost deserted at half past nine on the morning of the first of September.
An attendant skimmed through the Daily Prophet whilst his charmed broom cleaned the platform of litter. It was clear to anyone who observed him that the attendant had no interest in his job, after all what was the point of cleaning the platform now? In a couple of hours hundreds of students and their families would have passed through the barrier between platforms nine and ten at King's Cross Station, bringing with them rubbish and leaving it to be cleaned all over again.
For the time being though the platform was free of students.
The Hogwart's Express had pulled alongside the platform and was awaiting the numerous students and occasional professor who would be climbing on board shortly before 11am to make the long journey northwards to the castle which was Hogwart's School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Some would be making the journey to the school for the final time, others for the first. But the thing they all had in common was that they were all lucky enough to be going to the finest school for witches and wizards in the world.
The first of the students began to arrive a little after 10am. Those who had travelled to King's Cross by muggle train had to make sure that they didn't leave things too late. The last thing they wanted to do was to miss the one and only train that would take them to school.
Once the first students had arrived the platform began to fill as more and more students and their families hurried through the barrier between platforms nine and ten. By quarter to eleven the platform was positively teeming with people and cries of recognition echoed back and forth on the warm autumn morning.
As was usual many of the quietest of the students were those who were going to Hogwarts for the very first time.
One such student was a small, dark-haired, scrawny looking boy. He was wearing mismatched muggle clothing and was standing silently by a sour-faced looking woman who the observant would easily recognise was his mother.
Unlike most of the new students Severus Snape was lucky enough to know someone else who was going to be attending Hogwarts for the first time. His sharp eyes scanned the platform for several minutes as he tried to find the familiar face of Lily Evans amongst the masses.
Finally a portly woman stepped aside and Severus saw Lily standing with her parents and sister.
He wanted to go across and talk to her but something held him back.
She was talking to her sister who looked as though she wished she were anywhere but on the platform. Severus knew that the muggle schools wouldn't be starting back for a few more days and that Petunia would be going to one of those. Unlike her younger sister the elder of the Evans girls was not a witch.
Severus couldn't make out their words, the loud chatter of the crowd drowned out both of the girls, but from where he stood he could tell that their conversation was not going well. Petunia looked as angry as he'd ever seen her – not that he'd seen her look any other way – and he didn't fail to notice the look of venom that she shot his way at something her sister had said. He felt his face flush as he realised that he was the topic of conversation.
He had almost convinced himself to go across to the girls when he felt a hand on his shoulder guiding him towards the train. Submitting to the slight pressure he made sure that his pet toad was secured, grabbed one of the handles of his trunk and climbed aboard the Hogwart's Express.
He stowed his trunk in the first compartment he came to. He hadn't realised how close to 11am it was until he felt the train begin to move slightly. He wondered whether to make his way back into the corridor to wave to his mother on the platform. But he knew he'd never manage to push his way through the crowd of students that clustered around every window on that side of the train.
Instead he opened up his trunk and quickly pulled out his school robes. After a cautious glance at the compartment door to confirm that no one was looking in his direction he swiftly pulled off the muggle clothing and replaced them with his uniform. The robes were second hand but they were a still far better fit than the smock and jeans he'd worn for the journey to King's Cross.
He didn't know which carriage Lily was in but he knew that it wouldn't take long to find her.
Pushing his muggle clothes to the bottom of his trunk he closed the same and stepped back into the corridor as the other students began to make their way towards the various compartments.
Severus looked into several compartments without success. Most students merely ignored him, and let him move on. The corridors of the train were crowded and he wasn't the only student who appeared to be searching for friends who had not been located before the departure time.
The sounds of loud laughter came from the open door of the next compartment in the carriage and Severus poked his head in the door, hopeful again that in this one he'd find Lily.
It was clear that Severus had walked in at the end of some joke and he smiled at the older students who he could tell were from the school house he was hoping to be sorted into…Slytherin. The blond-haired boy wearing a prefect badge appeared to have been the one who had told the joke and Severus hovered in the doorway wondering if someone would fill him in on the amusing anecdote that the rest of the students in the compartment had just been regaled with. There were two seats free in the compartment – if the others moved their items and animals – and Severus wondered whether they might invite him and Lily to join them.
"The other first years are down that end," said the prefect, pointing further down the train in the direction Severus had been headed.
Severus looked around the compartment unsure what to say in the face of the hostile glances aimed in his direction.
"That way," repeated the boy, rather more sharply.
"What do you think Lucius? Is he deaf or daft?" asked a plump looking brown haired boy as he dipped his hand into a box of sweets.
"N-n-n-neither," stammered Severus, though his feet just refused to move.
"T-t-t-that way," mimicked the dark haired girl as she petted the grey cat who apparently qualified as good enough to sit with them. Everyone in the compartment burst into laughter at her clever imitation, Lucius laughing the loudest of all.
Severus backed out of the door and hurried in the direction of the rest of the first years, sure he'd find Lily and a warmer welcome soon.
A few minutes later he finally found her sitting in the corner of a compartment. There was a group of rowdy boys nearest the door while Lily herself sat hunched in a corner next to the window.
Severus slid open the compartment door, moved straight past the talking boys, and sat down opposite Lily. She glanced at him and then looked back out of the window. He could see that she had been crying and wondered briefly what had happened.
He hadn't even opened his mouth to speak when Lily broke her silence.
"I don't want to talk to you," she said in a constricted voice.
"Why not?" Severus asked, at a total loss why she'd say such a thing.
"Tuney h-hates me. Because we saw that letter from Dumbledore."
"So what?" he blurted before he could stop himself. He didn't need to ask which letter she was talking about. He knew perfectly well it was the one the headmaster of Hogwarts had sent to the muggle girl who'd begged to be able to attend the school with her younger sister.
Lily threw him a look of deep dislike. He drew back a little in surprise at the hostility in his friend's face. They'd had arguments before but he'd been sure that they were past them now.
"So she's my sister!" Lily exclaimed.
"She's only a –" Severus caught himself quickly and was relieved to see that Lily, too busy trying to wipe her eyes without being noticed, had not heard him. He knew from experience that she disliked it when he discarded Petunia because of her status as a muggle.
""But we're going!" he said, unable to suppress the exhilaration in his voice. "This is it! We're off to Hogwarts!"
Lily nodded, mopping her eyes, and he was relieved to see a small half smile playing on her lips. He felt himself smiling wider in response.
"You'd better be in Slytherin," he said, encouraged that she had brightened a little.
Severus wondered how he could have forgotten to tell her about the various houses at Hogwarts in all the time they'd known each other.
Before he could remedy the situation however, one of the boys sharing the compartment, voiced his opinion first.
"Who wants to be in Slytherin? I think I'd leave, wouldn't you?" the slight, black-haired boy asked the boy lounging on the seats opposite him.
"My whole family have been in Slytherin," the boy he was speaking to said without smiling.
"Blimey," said the first boy, "and I thought you seemed all right!"
The second boy grinned.
"Maybe I'll break the tradition. Where are you heading, if you've got the choice?"
Severus watched as the first boy lifted an invisible sword.
"Gryffindor, where dwell the brave at heart!" Like my dad."
Severus had watched the exchange with interest but at the boy's words he could not stop the small, disparaging noise escaping. The boy turned to him with a hard look.
"Got a problem with that?" he asked.
"No," replied Severus although he couldn't keep the sneer from his voice any more than he could resist adding "If you'd rather be brawny than brainy-"
"Where're you hoping to go, seeing as you're neither?" interjected the second boy.
The first boy roared with laughter.
Severus was saved from trying to think up a smart retort by Lily. She appeared to have forgotten her earlier desire not to talk to him and was now sitting up, rather flushed, and looking at the two boys with dislike.
"Come on Severus, let's find another compartment," she said as she stood up and glared at the others.
The two boys imitated her lofty voice as she marched past them and out of the door. Severus stood up to follow her and felt himself stumble slightly as an outstretched leg of the would-be Gryffindor was deliberately manoeuvred into his path.
"See ya, Snivellus!" a voice called as the compartment door slammed behind them. He wasn't sure he'd heard correctly but put it from his mind. As long as he was in Slytherin with Lily he'd be happy and would probably have little to do with the boys they had just left.

Module 1
Providing Services to students with disabilities--and the matter of Universal Design
As an educator in a postsecondary institution, you have no doubt encountered students with a myriad of disabilities that impact their learning within your classes. However, as an expert in your particular academic arena, you probably have not had much training around how to best teach and accommodate these students. Common sense and human empathy may have brought you to the conclusion that a student with a disability needs to be given some special treatment to level the playing field, but you may feel at a loss to know exactly how to do this, to what extent or even why.
In this module, my colleagues and I will give you an overview of several issues involved when serving students with disabilities in a postsecondary environment, as well as best practices for teaching and accommodating this unique population. Subsequent modules will detail specific disability areas and discuss each in more depth. This module in no way presents a comprehensive look at this issue. Neither of us has the time to delve that deeply into this subject, however, rest assured that those of us in DSPS (Disabled Students Programs and Services) are always available and more than happy to answer specific questions that you may have or address a specific student or particular concern. We exist for you, as well as for our students.
As you proceed through this presentation, I am particularly interested in what areas interested you, what you already knew and found tedious, or what else you would like to see covered. I am also interested in your individual stories, especially as they related to ways that you have discovered to effectively teach a special group or individual or a universal design strategy that you use. Together, we can work to bring about one of the most innovative and accessible campuses in the state.
Thank you for your interest in this topic. I hope you enjoy it.
Your presenter,
Paula Schoenecker
LD Specialist/DSPS
We are using a pre-/post test method of measuring the effectiveness of this training. Please complete the pre-test, and thanks for your cooperation.

Commentary on the terrible tension in the Middle East.
Time has (almost) run out.
National Post -- Middle East could collapse into full conflict if international talks fail next week [6]
An Israeli pre-emptive strike against Iran's nuclear program will probably begin with a rain of Jericho missiles obliterating the heavy water plant in Arak and destroying four small nuclear research reactors at the Nuclear Technology Center in Isfahan.
Why time has (almost) run out.
New York Times -- The Bomb and the Bomber [7]
If Iran goes nuclear it will change our world.

An attack in September looks almost inevitable unless Tehran changes course on developing nuclear weapons.
Iran's key player.
Washington Post -- Iran's limited escape options [9]
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has never been a gambling man. Since becoming "supreme leader" of Iran in 1989, he's sought to preserve the status quo by eschewing transformative decisions.
Obama's play for peace.
Washington Post -- Obama's signal to Iran [10]
President Obama has signaled Iran that the United States would accept an Iranian civilian nuclear program if Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei can back up his recent public claim that his nation "will never pursue nuclear weapons."
The case for war. (ed's note – it hasn't changed since 2010)
The Atlantic -- The Point of No Return [11]
For the Obama administration, the prospect of a nuclearized Iran is dismal to contemplate— it would create major new national-security challenges and crush the president's dream of ending nuclear proliferation.
What an Israeli-Iran war might look like. (ed's note -- it hasn't changed since 2009).
Haaretz -- ANALYSIS / How Israel's war with Iran will be fought [12]
Iran regime's Shiite ideology will dictate a prolonged war that will be measured in years, not days.
Tactical help. Azerbaijan [13].
Yahoo News -- Report: Israel given access to bases near Iran border [14]
Former U.S. Ambassador John Bolton reacts.
If Israel attacks Iran and then Iran retaliates and attacks is Canada 'obliged' to assist (Israel)? (ed's note – maybe [15] )
Shalom Life -- Kent: An Attack on Israel is an Attack on Canada [16]
Shalom Life speaks with Minister Peter Kent on Iran's declaration that it is now a "nuclear state".
Quote worth noting.
"Prime Minister Harper has made it quite clear for some time now and has regularly stated that an attack on Israel would be considered an attack on Canada." -- Peter Kent

The Original Risk: Overtheologizing Ethics and Undertheologizing Sin
Müller, Denis
Bibliographic Citation
Christian Bioethics 2007 January-April; (13)1: 7-23
The project of articulating a theological ethics on the basis of liturgical anthropology is bound to fail if the necessary consequence is that one has to quit the forum of critical modern rationality. The risk of Engelhardt's approach is to limit rationality to a narrow vision of reason. Sin is not to be understood as the negation of human holiness, but as the negation of divine holiness. The only way to renew theological ethics is to understand sin as the anthropological and ethical expression of the biblical message of the justification by faith only. Sin is therefore a secondary category, which can only by interpreted in light of the positive manifestation of liberation, justification, and grace. The central issue of Christian ethics is not ritual purity or morality, but experience, confession and recognition of our own injustice in our dealing with God and men.

A rider let us know that that you requested a tip for their trip. Uber is a completely cashless app and asking for cash can confuse and frustrate riders. All riders will be charged for trips through credit card payment once the trip is completed. We are able to adjust fares after the fact if you email us in and let us know something happened.
How can I improve?
The best way to avoid such complaints is to not ask for payment. Note, if a rider offers you a tip, you should remind them that tipping is not necessary, however, if they still insist, you can accept it - you earned it!
Watch the video below to refresh your knowledge on Uber's payment system
Note: we expect some negative feedback over time for all our partners as this is the nature of the business!
If you believe you received this complaint unfairly, please don't worry. We'll only take action if we see a pattern of undesirable behavior. Again, the purpose of this message is to provide you constructive feedback to help you improve.

Just to point that I don't like central configuration databases, and I
don't think it's the way to go.
They're single failure points for the whole system.
In fact with current selinux improvements, you will not be able to
a central database for all the system, but some smaller databases with
different security contexts, to manage MAC on different roles.
With this scenario, I don't see any improvements with this changes.
Flat files are pretty nice to manage/label.

What's sure is any scripting language will support open/write/read operations on flat files.
A plain python - or shell, or Perl, ... - script can do the job on flat files also.

New 'State of the Rivers' Report: Great potential for river recreation in region
Walnut Creek
March 31, 6:00 - 7:30
Windsor Heights Community Center
6900 School Street, Windsor Heights
The potential for river recreation in Greater Des Moines is significant and largely untapped, a new report finds.
That is a central takeaway from "State of the Rivers," a new online resource that is rich with research on 150 miles of creeks and rivers in central Iowa. The report documents the current conditions of the metro waterways – identifying existing uses, opportunities, and challenges – as part of a larger effort to develop a Greater Des Moines Water Trails and Greenways Plan.
"We'll never have mountains or oceans in central Iowa, but we have an abundance of rivers that we should be embracing as a region," said Rick Tollakson, the president and CEO of Hubbell Realty Co. who is chairing the Water Trails Steering Committee. "If we come up with an ambitious but achievable plan, our rivers can become a signature recreational amenity for Greater Des Moines. The question now is, what is our vision?"
The public is invited to share their ideas on the newly opened Water Trails Input Map, an interactive online mapping tool that lets visitors sketch out their concepts for natural-area preservation and recreational development in and along the rivers and creeks of Greater Des Moines. The Water Trails Input Map is available at www.dmampo.org/water-trails/ and will remain open through Wednesday, March 30.
The Water Trails and Greenways Plan is being developed by the Des Moines Area Metropolitan Planning Organization on behalf of the Iowa Department of Natural Resources. The plan covers the Des Moines, Raccoon, South Skunk, North and Middle rivers, as well as Beaver, Four Mile, Mud and Walnut creeks. A draft plan will be released for public comment in early summer of 2016; the final plan is expected by late 2016.
Major takeaways from the "State of the Rivers" report include:
- Access – Today people have limited access to the rivers and creeks of Greater Des Moines. Expanding the number of access points – such as boat launches, equipment rentals, and information about recreational opportunities – would give people more options to explore rivers in more ways.
- Water quality – The region's rivers and creeks are polluted to varying degrees, and they are "flashy" due to excessive storm-water run-off during rainstorms. Improving water quality and stability will attract more people to the rivers.
- Safety – Threats to the safety of users – whether mild or severe, real or perceived – can act as a deterrent to users. Encouraging a culture of water safety through user education, accurate information on current conditions, and options for safe recreational experiences will be critical to expanding river recreation.
- Greenways Habitat – The rivers act as corridors of natural habitat throughout the region. Conserving these natural corridors would add to the diversity of wildlife and the health of the rivers.
- Passionate People – Many people in the community – from current users to business leaders – have engaged in this planning process and have great enthusiasm for improving the region's waterways.

The rooms had no bedclothes, the shower would only use cold water, the toilet wouldnt flush and the electricity continuously stopped working. We had left our laundry with the owner upon arrival, we have been in India a few months and it has always cost us 600rupees. We got charged 1600rupees. Which was more expensive that the room and food bill we had. Would not recomend as owner unfriendly and rude. Food was good however and chef was friendly.

"Chew your meat for you. Pass it back and forth. In a passionate kiss. From my mouth to yours. 'Cause I like you." Hey, man. In this day and age even the living dead could use a little love, and artist Matt Busch is back with a whole new slew of grue guaranteed to touch you until you weep.
from the Press Release:
Artist Matt Busch is about to unveil the third incarnation of Hollywood-is-Dead, a collection of re-imagined movie posters with a zombie twist. Busch first made waves with his undead parodies in 2009 with Zombie Wars, a project authorized by Lucasfilm to repaint all 6 Star Wars movie posters with his decrepit vision. Since then, the outbreak expanded into an online gallery, Hollywood-is-Dead.com, with over 30 posters, including Harry Potter (Scary Rotter), Toy Story (Toy Gory) and Breakfast at Tiffany's (Breakfast is Tiffany).
Now, just in time for Valentine's Day, Busch has painted 9 new infectious posters with a romantic theme. Paying special attention to cinematic love stories and "date movies", this series offers classics like The Wizard of Oz (The Walking Dead of Oz), Beauty and the Beast (Beauty and the Feast), and Edward Scissorhands (Deadward Scissorhands). Beginning February 2nd, the Hollywood-is-Dead website will release a new poster each weekday, leading up to the final masterpiece on February 14th.
Busch is already a renowned poster artist, having illustrated posters, books, and trading cards for such properties as Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, and Indiana Jones. With Hollywood-is-Dead, he painstakingly hand-paints every detail with traditional mixed media (as opposed to digital altering like Photoshop) before shredding the classics into bloody pulps. As for going with a somewhat softer side this time around, Busch comments, "These aren't just 'chick flicks' for the ladies. I think the males will really enjoy getting their better halves art prints based on movies like The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (The Twitch Saga: Eek! Lips.) and Sex and the City (Wrecks and the City). Nothing says 'I love you' like the rotting undead."
In addition to the website, the Hollywood-is-Dead original paintings are exhibited in the ArtInsights Animation and Film Art Gallery in Reston, Virginia. Portions of the gallery sales are donated to the National Film Preservation Foundation. Gallery owner Leslie Combemale states, "Yes, these images are over-the-top, but they are also a commentary about our pop culture and a love note from Matt to the original artists who created these classics and to the dying art used to make classic movie posters."
To see the current collection and learn more about the project, visit the official Hollywood-is-Dead website, and check out more original art at the ArtInsights Animation and Film Art Gallery online.

Why Was Sierra Rated Best Memory Foam Mattress?

Is it the value, the craftsmanship, or the memory foam comfort that sent it to the top? Read his review of the Sierra mattress by Brentwood Home here.

Kim Kardashian Controversies
January 11, 2012 by staff
Kim Kardashian Controversies, Amber Rose has unveiled the cover art of her single 'Fame' which features boyfriend Wiz Khalifa.
The 28-year-old model announced earlier last year that she was planning her venture into the music world, and has been using advice given to her by her rapper boyfriend. While many may not have taken Amber seriously, she has released the cover art of the single.
Shot in black and white, the artwork includes a side profile of Amber's head with the title and her and Wiz's name on the top.
Amber was at the centre of controversy last week, when she accused Kim Kardashian of being a homewrecker in Amber's relationship with then-boyfriend Kanye West. 'Fame' premieres on Tuesday 10 January on PerezHilton.com.

After all, Americans produce 4.4 pounds of trash on average per day. However, this girl only produced enough trash that all of it fit inside a 16 oz mason jar.
How did she do it? The 23 year old, Lauren Singer, discusses all of her effortless recycling and reusing on her blog. But, she was nice enough to answer some questions in an interview.
Singer has recently started her own business, in which she is creating her own 'handmade, organic, vegan' laundry detergent. And if there is anyone who knows best how to make this sort of thing, it's the girl who doesn't need even one garbage bag in her house.
One thing she says she has in her mason jar of trash is a used band-aid. She said a lot of the other trash consists packaging that mistakenly fell into her hands, and if she couldn't reuse it for compost or recycle it, it ended up in the jar.
Everyone should take a lesson from this girl. If we could all produce as little trash as she does, we would certainly be on our way to a better world.

A Particular View of The World
de Michael Moy
Acerca del libro
I tend toward a photo-journalistic style of photography. I enjoy the adventure of seeking out subjects to shoot. I use the camera lens like a third eye. It helps me see the world in a particular way. I find myself drawn to patterns, lines, shapes, contrast, lightness and darkness. And while I do occasionally succumb to the cliché at times (sunsets for example), I try to create images from subjects other people tend to pass by or don't take the time to see. In some cases, I look to find a way to shoot an old subject in a new way. I examine the natural world as well as the man- made world and at times these two converge. This book attempts to convey these ideas in a single body of work. It covers a fraction of the photos I have taken in the last ten years. It is a snap-shot of my own development as a photographer. Much of my earliest work has not "made the cut." If you find anything you like here, and maybe you will, please visit my website to see even more of my current work. As I continue to develop my skills and style as a photographer, I am enjoying the journey, and look ahead to what the future brings. Hopefully, I can share it with you.
Please note: The hardcover with dust jacket option has an index of all the pictures on the flaps. The other binding options do not have this.

Dr. Allen D. Rosen's Credentials
Accepting New Patients
Yes, this doctor is accepting new patients
One of America's Top Docs, Allen Rosen, was named one of the finest plastic surgeons in New York and New Jersey, by both New York Magazine and New Jersey Monthly Magazine. For twelve years running, peer surveys by Castle Connolly Medical have recognized Dr. Rosen as one of our countries premier plastic surgeons. Good Morning America, MTV, Eyewitness News, CBS and NBC, have profiled his work and he has been an invited guest on News 12 New Jersey and numerous other network media events. He has been quoted in Allure, Shape, and Self magazines, New York Daily News, Wall Street Journal and the Washington Times. For over a decade Dr. Rosen has been a distinguished spokesperson for the American Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons, and is the founding partner and medical director of the Plastic Surgery Group. After finishing his surgical training at Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center in New York, Dr. Rosen relocated to New Jersey where he serves as Assistant clinical Professor in the Department of Plastic Surgery at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey. Dr. Rosen believes in balancing the demands of a busy professional life with that of volunteer service. He was honored in the spring of 2005 for 10 years of dedicated service to Heal the Children, a charitable organization which helps children from around the world who need reconstructive surgery. The American Cancer Society of NJ, for which he served as unit President, honored Dr. Rosen for his efforts to help women in the fight against breast cancer. Both the American Red Cross and the National Congressional Committees' Business Advisory Council have singled Dr. Rosen out to honor his outstanding contributions to community service. Most recently he has been involved in fund-raising activities to support Juvenile Diabetes Research.

Author has written 5 stories for Harry Potter, Song of the Lioness, Star Wars, and Inkheart.
Hi! May the horse be with you! Heh, one of my favorite sayings. I love horses and Star Wars, and reading, and writing, and lots of other stuff, like violas. Violas are AWESOME!! Boo violins. Ok, I guess SOME violinists and their violins are ok, but I'm a violists, it's in my nature to hate violins. Anyways, where was I? Oh yeah, what I like. Well I am a hippophile, a very, very, very big hippophile. I've been riding for five years and jump and do a bit of dressage. My favorite equine is a very, VERY naughty little haflinger named Skippy. He's a mean, palimino bucking/jumping machine, and the CUTEST little pony you'll ever see!! He's pretty small too, like 13 hands. And then there is my little pony, whom I don't ride much because they have to use her in the beginner classes, but I still love. Her name's Spumoni, I LOOOOVE her. I ride twice a week, some times three, and I work to ride for at least one of my lessons. I don't mind that at all, sometimes I find just being in the barn is better then riding!
Time to tell why I actually try to write, even though it is something I loathed, despised, hated, wanted to kill myself over, and could NOT do for my life and even those of my beloved equines. I'm dead serious, I could not write, and I half of the time today I still can't write, it's sad, I always want to crawl in a hole when I think about it. Sooooooo, when I was in 5th grade we were asked to take creative writing seriously. My first story went something like: I was sitting in a big blck world with things that felt strange and smelled swweet. (I hate sweet things) When suddenly the black world turned very light and I realized the black world was really a black garbage bag. I sweet smelling things were a cake, frosting, and cake decorations. I wondered why I was there.
Giant hands grabbed us and everyone silently screamed and laughed at me. They decorated the cake then put frosting on me, YUCK! Then the hands put me next to the cake. Something came up and flashed in my face. Suddenly a hand picked me up and sliced a piece of me and ate it! It isn't very pleasent to get cut in half I tell you. But is is better then being thrown away and slowly decomposing. That's what they did to me, threw me away. This is my story, I know it's strange because you don't read many stories from a pickles point of view. After sitting in the trash I realized the hands had been silent. I felt bad for them for not being able to talk. I feel better now I that I know I helped them but why did it have to be me?
ACK! ACK! ACK! I HATE that story, it's like two paragraphs long,but they made us keep writing. I was in Enriched Language Arts, and had two teachers which the rest of the school considered weird and annoying and pretty much demons. They were my saviors. I'd still be writing like that if it weren't for them. (Don't you love it when I get all mushy? Right.) Unfortunately I've never been able to tell them that. I figured out how much they'd helped me AFTER I left that school. So basically I wrote like that for two years, during that time I learned lots of grammar, it was actually something that teachers hadn't been going over for the past gazzilion years, it was completely new, and it helped SOOO much. Grammar is good, when you aren't reviewing. We always had to read our stories out loud to the class, too. That was really embarresing. Finaly, with the last writing assignment I had to do for them I really "got into it" I wrote ten pages, the most I'd ever written then, I had to shorten it up of course but I really felt like I was going somewhere with my writing. The story was really crazy though, so that kind of ruined the effect. But I finally found my love of writing, in a year I was on a writing team and had a whole novel planned out. And that's how I got here.
Now I highly enjoy writing. I hope to write a book one day. I'm trying to write one now, but is isn't really working. So I'll just content myself with writing other smaller stories. I really enjoy books of all kinds. My faves include: Inkworld Trilogy, Harry Potter, Artemis Fowl, Inheritance Trilogy, Uglies/Pretties/Specials trilogy, Heartland, Animorphs, the books of Bayern, Pendragon, Legacy of the Force, Warriors, and SOOOO many others. I'm not a big movie fan, I don't watch any TV shows and stuff, books are much better, of the few movies I do love they are: Pirates of the Caribbean ("Stop blowing holes in my ship!" I just LOOOVE to quote those movies!), Star Wars, Spaceballs ("'No, no, lightspeed's too slow. We'll have to go to... Ludicerus Speed'"), Lord of the Rings, and a few other ones. I HATE all movies based off of books, except LOTR and the Chronicles of Narnia. Other things I like: Food, candy, horses, violas, viola parties, viola badmiton, my I-pod, Captain Jack, Barbossa, roller coasters, Lupin, Tonks, Teddy, Spader, Cloral, Courtney Chetwynde, Loor, Meggie and Mo Folchart, Butler, Dark Helmet, Rohan, Elves, the Quenyan language, my friends, my cousins, skiing, Wyoming, New Zealand, snow, weather, thunderstorms, tornadoes, adventures, backpacking, camping, challenges, my summer camp, the letters "A" and "K", my amazing youth orchestra, and purpular. I like a lot of other things too, but I'm too lazy to list them now. Oh, and I' also a very lazy person.
My favorite quote in the whole wide world is from my favorite book, Inkheart. It is the very last line, when Meggie is thinking about making "words her trade". I think it is one of the truest things I've ever heard. "As Mo has said: writing stories is a kind of magic, too."~Inkheart. Don't you just love it?
To be continued... (when I find time)...

Spartacus was a Thracian slave turned freeman who lead a slave revolt against imperial neocon Romans. Kirk Douglas starred in the classic 1958 movie about the man and the revolt.
Spartacus is also the internet name of a modern day freedom fighter, who like the ancient Spartacus, is a freedom fighter.
The iconic "I'm Spartacus" scene, where the defeated slaves all claim to be Spartacus rather than rat on their leader has been satirised several times, including in the Life of Brian.
