STUMPS: What a final session by Nathan Lyon. He's grabbed 5-16 in nine overs and the Windies are in all sorts of trouble. They reach stumps at 9-252, behind by 59. They were 4-230 at one stage and dreaming of a handy first-innings lead. That's fanciful thinking now. Make sure you come back at 1130pm tonight for day four. There's bound to be a few more twists. Until then, have a great day!
94th over: WICKET! Where has Lyon been all tour. It's as if the rain delay turned him into a new man. Now it's Shane Shillingford who receives the kiss of death from the former groundsman. He's been well caught by Cowan at short leg after edging onto his pad. WI 8-241, still trailing by 70
92nd over: WICKET! Lyon's done it again. Sammy's senses momentarily take leave and he's clocked that straight to Hussey at long-on. It was like catching practice. That's three wickets in 16 balls for Lyon. If Sammy wasn't skipper the captain would be giving him a good old-fashioned bake. Ottis Gibson's probably doing that right now. WI 7-237
90th over: WICKET! Lyon's a new man after the rain delay. He's found loop, drop and turn. And he's got the big wicket of Chanderpaul. The Windies don't have any more reviews, not that it would have made a difference. That was destined for middle and off. Darren Sammy's in now. There should be some fireworks now! WI 6-231 Baugh 1)
89th over: Pattinson's gone off the field holding his lower back. He looks very uncomfortable. That field and throw in the one motion has not agreed with him. WI 5-231 (Chanderpaul 94, Baugh 1)
88th over: DROPPED! We're being very harsh. That was a red-hot chance for Cowan at short leg. Baugh flicked it off his pads, on zero, hits Cowan's left hand but it doesn't stick. It's probably only a quarter chance, if that. WI 5-231 (Chanderpaul 94, Baugh 1)
88th over: WICKET! Lyon into the attack and he gets instant rewards for Clarke. He's drawn Deonarine down the wicket, deceived him in the air and off the wicket, and Wade takes the bails off. It ends a very good innings by Deonarine - 55 off 139 balls - and is a much-needed wicket for the visitors. Can Australia run through their tail? In comes Carlton Baugh. He owes his team some runs. WI 5-230 (Chanderpaul 94)
87th over: Watson into the attack.
86th over: That's a good save by Hussey in the gully. And his team-mates show their appreciation with a bit of man love. That's good to see, even in this era of sport. Deonarine finds the boundary with the last ball of Hilfenhaus's over. It's the second time in as many overs that's happened to the Tassie lad. WI 4-228 (Chanderpaul 93, Deonarine 54)
85th over: That's a brutal cover drive by Deonarine for his 50 - his third in Test cricket. It came off 132 balls, which is not bad seeing he had four from 42 balls at the start. He's dug in well. Bat manufacturers take note - he does not have a sponsor yet. WI 4-223 (Chanderpaul 92, Deonarine 50)
83rd over: This is a much better spell by Pattinson. He found a thick outside edge from Deonarine which flew safely to gully's right then had a very ambitious lbw appeal turned down. WI 4-214 (Chanderpaul 91, Deonarine 42)
80th over: Chanderpaul moves into the 90s with a boundary from the last ball of Hilfenhaus's over. The new ball is being taken and it's Pattinson to take from the Pavilion End - opposite to where he bowled that nightmare two-over spell after lunch. WI 4-207 (Chanderpaul 91, Deonarine 39)
80th over: Hilfenhaus back into the attack. Is he using this over to warm up before Australia takes the new ball when it becomes available after this over? If Australia do take it, will they let Pattinson use it after the way he bowled earlier today?
79th over: SIX! Chanderpaul gets on one knee and slogs Beer over mid-wicket with the spin. Australia's two spinners have not bowled with much penetration today. WI 4-202 (Chanderpaul 87, Deonarine 38)
78th over: Today is not Shane Watson's greatest day in the field. He's just mis-fielded a straightforward ball at mid-on. It costs Australia a run. Earlier his wild throw over the keeper's head cost four overthrows. He must have had a bad night's sleep. Warner's getting a few to stay low. WI 4-196 (Chanderpaul 81, Deonarine 38)
76th over: It appears Clarke was waving his arms to he could point to Warner to tell him he's bowling. He's turning it quite sharply as well. It drew a muted appeal for lbw from behind the pegs. WI 4-190 (Chanderpaul 76, Deonarine 37)
75th over: It's Michael Beer to resume the over that was interrupted by rain. Clarke's waving his arms at first slip like he's about to have a bowl.
UPDATE: (5.33am AEST) The final session will go from 3.35pm-5.30pm local time (535am-730am AEST) with 28 overs to be bowled.
UPDATE: (5.27am AEST) We're back! I agree with Henry. It's loud. Very loud. I may or may not have run into a few Australian fans who were offering rum and cranberries but I can report they are having a very good time. I can also tell you play will re-start at 3.35pm local time, or 5.35am AEST. Good news is skies are clear and it's looking good in the horizon as well.
UPDATE: (4.45am AEST) The tunes are really pumping out of the party stand, also known as the Trini Posse Stand. Henry Lawson saying on Twitter it's so loud you can hear the music on his tweet. I'm going to head in and see how loud it is in the flesh. Purely for research purposes of course.
UPDATE: (4.40am AEST) The groundsmen want to peel the covers off but it's still raining ever so softly. Encouraging signs.
UPDATE: (4.26am AEST) The groundsmen are out there. There's just the one sopper and the poor guy has to push it up and down the square to get rid of this large volume of water. Where's the motorised sopper. This is like using a bucket to clear water from a flood.
UPDATE: (4.21am AEST) The rain's almost stopped, the sun's out, so the groundsmen should be going to work very soon. I wonder where they are.
UPDATE: This reminds me of a scene from the 12th Man where Richie welcomes us back with a spoonerism as he tries to tell us the rain is coming down in buckets full. It'll take them at least 30 minutes, I reckon, for them to clear the water once it stops raining. The skies to east look a bit brighter so hopefully the rain will stop soon. This Test match deserves a decent finish.
75th over: RAIN! That's either a rain delay or there's a pitch invader hurtling towards the pitch taking the stumps out. Yep, it's rain. It's been threatening for quite some time now and it could be with us for a while. That's a shame for the Windies because they were well on top. For Australia, it'll give Mickey Arthur a chance to regroup his players. They were very flat in the hour after lunch. This game is very delicately poised. WI 4-188, behind by 123 (Chanderpaul 74, Deonarine 37)
74th over: SIX! Warner gets his own treatment. Deonarine uses his feet and tonks a full toss over mid-wicket into the Trini Posse Stand. The Australians do not look at all threatening. WI 4-188 (Chanderpaul 74, Deonarine 37)
74th over: REFERRAL! Geoff Lawson wanted it. On comes Dave Warner with his leggies. And he's appealing first-up for lbw against Deonarine on 31. Warner manages to persuade Clarke into taking a referral. I reckon the captain wishes he didn't listen. It's been turned down. Ball was heading down leg. WI 4-182 (Chanderpaul 74, Deonarine 31)
71st over: Drivers on the roads have turned their lights on if that's an indication as to the light. Chanderpaul's still seeing them well. He's cut Watson for four off the last ball of that over. He's in the zone. WI 4-176 (Chanderpaul 68, Deonarine 31)
70th over: Watson and Beer have dried up the runs in recent overs. It's getting quite dark out there, but not dark enough to see that Ponting keeps chatting away to the umpires. It seems in good spirit, though. WI 4-172 (Chanderpaul 68, Deonarine 27)
67th over: The Windies have taken it up to the Australians after lunch. That's 35 runs from seven overs since the break. Lyon's been dangerous at times but not consistent enough, Pattinson had a shocker, Watson's been tight so far. 4-167 (Chanderpaul 66, Deonarin 24)
66th over: Pattinson can recover away from the spotlight. It's Watson into the attack.
64th over: Pattinson's getting an attack of the yips here. One ball didn't land on the cut stuff. It was wide, full and bounced on the return crease AFTER it passed the batsman. His confidence must be grass high at the moment. Any ball that's close to the mark is getting claps from the slips. Just the one from the over though he can thank Warner for that. He saved a certain boundary.
62nd over: Pattinson to bowl from the other end. He could have changed his whites during the lunch break. He's got a dark red stain on the outside of his left leg just under the knee. It looks as if he's spilt a bucket of claret. He'll be bleeding inside as well. Chanderpaul's taken to him This is his first over: 4, 0nb, 4, 4nb, 2 . . . or in layman's terms 16 runs. Ouch! 4-153 (Chanderpaul 64, Deonarine 12)
61st over: Play's resumed after lunch and it's Lyon to take the ball. It doesn't take long but the crowd is on its feet. Chanderpaul brings up his 50! Well done you tiger. WI 4-137 (Chanderpaul 50, Deonarine 12)
LUNCH: WI 4-132 (Chanderpaul 45, Deonarine 12) That close shave for the Windies means they take the session but only just. They added 83 runs but lost Bravo to Hussey. I'd still rather be in Australia's position but we have a good contest. Join me at 2.40am AEST for the second session.
60th over: It was almost disaster off the last ball before lunch. The Windies took off for a risky single, Deonarine was slow off the mark, the throw from Hussey went to the striker's end and we have a photo finish. It's oh so close. I reckon we're missing a frame here. But Deonarine gets the green light. He can eat his lunch knowing his wicket is still intact.
60th over: The Windies are sprinting to lunch and taking the attack to Australia's spinners. Chanderpaul's swept a loose ball from Beer down leg side for four.
59th over: Lyon into the attack and almost makes an instant imapct. That's a ripper! It turned and bounced and Deonarine got nowhere near it. Next ball, Deonarine slog sweeps over the top for four. It was pitched up on middle and off. Very risky. Then he's swept it fine for another four. That's eight runs in two balls for the bloke who took 42 balls to get to four. WI 4-123 (Chanderpaul 40, Deonarine 12)
58th over: Deonarine must feel as if the walls are caving in on him. He had two off 36 balls a few minutes ago. He's now up to four from 42. WI 4-119 (Chanderpaul 40, Deonarine 4)
55th over: It's Hussey back into the attack. Can he garner another wicket?
52nd over: Back on the field Beer's into the second over of his spell. Deonarine's finding it hard to score. He's on 1 after 23 balls. WI 4-112 (Chanderpaul 37, Deonarine 1)
UPDATE: This is the word on why start of play was delayed this morning. It was match referee Jeff Crowe's decision to come off the ground. He informed the umpires that the TV cameras were down and thought they should come off. The umpires spoke to both sides, who agreed play should not start until the problem was rectified. But the technology was not the sole reason for the delay. There needed to be consultation with the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB), who were concerned of the implications with their TV partner. If power goes off again, they will stay on. We had a similar incident yesterday but today the back-up generator broke down as well. Perhaps they needed the 12th man to hop on the bike?
49th over: Hilfenhaus into the attack. WI 4-112 (Chanderpaul 37, Deonarine 1)
48th over: Hilfenhaus is limbering up. I'm laying him as favourite to come into the attack.
45th over: Hussey strays on leg and Chanderpaul clips him off this thigh for four. This could be the last we see of Mr Cricket for now. He's done his job. WI 4-108 (Chanderpaul 34, Deonarine 0)
43rd over: WICKET! They're tea pots no more. Clarke's done it again! Hussey strikes with his 11th ball and he's bagged a huge scalp. Bravo's gone, lbw for 38. And he's taken their last referral with him. It's pitched in line and taken his back leg. It was an exercise in futility. Windies in strife now. In comes Narsingh Deonarine. Time for Chanderpaul to do what Hussey did with the bat for Australia. 4-100 (Chanderpaul 26)
43rd over: FIVE! That's sloppy play by the Australians. Bravo took a single to Watson at mid-wicket but gets four overthrows. There's a lot of tea pots out there - hands on hips. Let's play the blame game now. Watson's throw was too high, Wade's five foot something not six foot plus so he can't be to blame. Clarke and Lyon weren't in a position to back up so they can put their hands up as well.
42nd over: Watson's into the attack. Clarke's always making changes so play does not meander along. WI 3-93 (Bravo 33, Chanderpaul 24)
41st over: We have a bowling change, and it's not Shane Watson. We have MEK Hussey into the attack.
39th over: Chanderpaul puts that behind point for four. That will be disheartening for Lyon. Clarke's trying to gee his players up but they're up for a fight this morning. 3-83 (Bravo 32, Chanderpaul 19)
37th over: There's a bit of technical drama with the scorer as well. The light he uses to tell the umpire he's received their signals is not working. So they're using a sponsor's placard which has the number 6 on one side and 4 on the other to communicate. On the field Lyon's produced a beauty but the can't get through Bravo, but well bowled.
36th over: The answer is no. But he's put Wade in an awkward position. The ball swung late after it passed the batsman and Wade's done well to take that, though he's giving his right leg a good stretch and shake after that. That's why the players do their yoga and Pilates. Bravo's made a very positivee start today. Australia better watch out. WI 3-77 (Bravo 32, Chanderpaul 13)
36th over: It's James Pattinson into the attack. Can he produce a wicket with his first ball again?
33rd over: Ponting's wearing a helmet at short cover. There was a time when he would field in close with just his baggy green. I can still remember the day he copped a ball on his gob at The Oval in 2009 Ashes, which caused concern among the England batsmen. Ponting ignored them, spat the blood out and played on. That's tough!
31st over: DROPPED! Chanderpaul gets a life. How costly could this be?! Lyon found his outside edge, it deflected off Wade's pad, wrong-footed Clarke, who was going to his left, and bounced out of his bread basket. That's a two for one meal deal, though you can't really blame Wade for missing it as it was a thick outside edge and Clarke didn't have enough time to account for the deflection.
30th over: It's Lyon and Hilfenhaus to operate in tandem. Beer's off after bowling his three balls left over from last night. Bravo's looking quite good, which is not hard considering he has modelled his game on one BC Lara.
UPDATE: It turns out the match can continue without DRS which begs the question as to why the umpires went off in the first place. It's delayed the start by 20 minutes. Let's hope we don't get to the last session of day five with one side needing another 20 minutes to get a victory.
26th over: Bravo safely sees out the first over. We'll try and find out more about the confusion this morning and give you a straight answer shortly. WI 3-50 (Bravo 17, Chanderpaul 1)
The players are back out on the field so we're about to start. Beer to finish off his over from last night.
Welcome to Queen's Park Oval where there is already drama without a ball being bowled. Some might even call it high farce. The sun is shining but the players are off the field. We have been told it's because the TV cameras do not work which means there is no DRS. The Australians, as is their right, were not willing to play without DRS so they went off the field.

Denmark Civil Marriages (FamilySearch Historical Records)
|This article describes a collection of historical records available at FamilySearch.org.
Access the records: Denmark Civil Marriages, 1851-1961 .
Title in the Language of the Collection
Dänemark standesamtliche Trauungen
Record Description
This Collection will include records from 1851 to 1961.
The earliest records are handwritten in narrative style. Beginning in 1923, entries were recorded in books containing preprinted forms. These records cover only individuals who were not members of -- or who chose not to marry in -- the state church. Consequently, the population coverage is quite low. These records do not cover any parts of Denmark that were under German administration to 1920. These counties were Tønder, Haderslev, Åbenrå, and Sønderborg.
The records in this collection are for the years 1851-1959. Please note this collection may have indexes for records that are not included. For example, this collection contains an index to civil marriages in Copenhagen City, 1851-1896, but only has records for 1851-1875.
For a list of records by date or locality currently published in this collection, select the Browse link from the collection landing page.
Civil marriages were first allowed in Denmark in 1851. The marriage was recorded with the district sheriff in rural areas and with the magistrate in cities. The marriage was recorded in special notarial registers. These registers vary in content and arrangement by area. Some include a considerable number of supporting documents, such as baptismal certificates, while others record only the names and residences of the bridal couple. In 1923 the registration process was changed by legislation enacted in 1922. This made the mayor the registering officer in the cities and the parish sherrif the registrar in rural areas. The registration form was also standardized into a columnar format. Regions of Denmark that belonged to Germany had a separate system of registration.
Civil registration of marriage legitimized marriage for members of the population who were not adherents of the state church.
Record Content
Civil marriage records usually contain the following information:
- Names of the bride and groom
- Marriage date
- Ages, and sometimes the birthdates, of the bride and groom
- Residence of bride and groom
- Occupation of the bride and groom
How to Use the Record
To search the collection you will need to follow this series of links:

Hello Guys.
I am new with python, I need to do assignment for my degree. Unfortunately I have no idea how to start it at all. I don't want that nobody does it for me but just give me some idea how to start it please. Below there is the specification for the assignment.
Thank you in advance any help is appreciated.
ncome predictor
Using a dataset ( the "Adult Data Set") from the UCI Machine-Learning Repository we can predict based on a number of factors whether someone's income will be greater than $50,000.
The technique
The approach is to create a 'classifier' - a program that takes a new example record and, based on previous examples, determines which 'class' it belongs to. In this problem we consider attributes of records and separate these into two broad classes, <50K and >=50K.
We begin with a training data set - examples with known solutions. The classifier looks for patterns that indicate classification. These patterns can be applied against new data to predict outcomes. If we already know the outcomes of the test data, we can test the reliability of our model. if it proves reliable we could then use it to classify data with unknown outcomes.
We must train the classifier to establish an internal model of the patterns that distinguish our two classes. Once trained we can apply this against the test data - which has known outcomes.
We take our data and split it into two groups - training and test - with most of the data in the training set.
We need to write a program to find the patterns in the training set.
Building the classifier
Look at the attributes and, for each of the two outrcomes, make an average value for each one, Then aveage these two results for each attribute to compute a midpoint or 'class separation value'.
For each record, test whether each attribute is above or below its midpoint value and flag it accouringly. For each record the overall result is the greater count of the individual results (<50K, >=50K)
You'll know your model works iff you achieve the same results as thee known result for the records. You should track the accuracy of your model, i.e how many correct classifications you made as a percentage of the total number of records.
Process overview
Create training set from data
Create classifier using training dataset to determine separator values for each attribute
Create test dataset
Use classifier to classify data in test set while maintaining accuracy score
The data
The data is presented in the form of a comma-delimited text file (CSV) which has the following structure:
Listing of attributes:
1. Age: Number.
2. Workclass: Can be one of -- Private, Self-emp-not-inc, Self-emp-inc, Federal-gov, Local-gov, State-gov, Without-pay, Never-worked.
3. fnlwgt: number. This is NOT NEEDED for our study.
4. Education: Can be one of -- Bachelors, Some-college, 11th, HS-grad, Prof-school, Assoc-acdm, Assoc-voc, 9th, 7th-8th, 12th, Masters, 1st-4th, 10th, Doctorate, 5th-6th, Preschool. This is NOT NEEDED for our study.
5. Education-number: Number -- indicates level of education.
6. Marital-status: Can be one of -- Married-civ-spouse, Divorced, Never-married, Separated, Widowed, Married-spouse-absent, Married-AF-spouse.
7. Occupation: Can be one of -- Tech-support, Craft-repair, Other-service, Sales, Exec-managerial, Prof-specialty, Handlers-cleaners, Machine-op-inspct, Adm-clerical, Farming-fishing, Transport-moving, Priv-house-serv, Protective-serv, Armed-Forces.
8. Relationship: Can be one of -- Wife, Own-child, Husband, Not-in-family, Other-relative, Unmarried.
9. Race: Can be one of -- White, Asian-Pac-Islander, Amer-Indian-Eskimo, Other, Black.
10. Sex: Either Female or Male.
11. Capital-gain: Number.
12. Capital-loss: Number.
13. Hours-per-week: Number.
14. Native-country: United-States, Cambodia, England, Puerto-Rico, Canada, Germany, Outlying-US(Guam-USVI-etc), India, Japan, Greece, South, China, Cuba, Iran, Honduras, Philippines, Italy, Poland, Jamaica, Vietnam, Mexico, Portugal, Ireland, France, Dominican-Republic, Laos, Ecuador, Taiwan, Haiti, Columbia, Hungary, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Scotland, Thailand, Yugoslavia, El-Salvador, Trinadad&Tobago, Peru, Hong, Holand-Netherlands. This is NOT NEEDED for our study.
15. Outcome for this record: Can be >50K or <=50K.
Data is available from http://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/machine-l ... adult.data. You should be able to read this direcctly from the Internet.
Fields that have 'discrete' attributes such as 'Relationship' can be given a numeric weight by counting the number of occurrances as a fraction of the total number of positive records (outcome >= 50K) and negative records (outcome < 50K). So, if we have 10 positive records and they have values Wife:2, Own-child: 3, Husband:2, Not-in-family:1, Other-realtive:1 and Unmarried:1 then this would yield factors of 0.2, 0.3, 0.2, 0.1, 0.1 and 0.1 respectively.

"Game changer" is a term you hear often when people talk about how technology has changed their industry.
At the end of the year, you have two options – you can look back at what you've done (accomplishments, as well as mistakes) or you can begin planning for the year ahead. This is a pivotal moment and one that should be accomplished before diving into your holiday feast. To make sure your teams are prepped for the New Year, here are three trends I believe will impact marketing and sales in 2014.
You Have a Tablet – Now What?
Research from venture capital firm KPCB found that salespeople check their mobile devices upwards of 140 times each day. As more reps are given access to mobile tools like smartphones and tablets, I expect this number will continue to rise, and sales and marketing leaders will need to put more resources into ensuring the collateral and sales assets they create are optimized for use in the field through mobile tools. Organizations will have deployed mobile devices, but find themselves asking, "Now what?" To ensure they continue to realize increased productivity and efficiency from their investment in mobility, organizations will need to define a clear strategy and implement infrastructure to support this technology and related productivity goals.
CMO Evolution
Another change that will impact marketing and sales in 2014 is the evolution of the role of the CMO. As executive vice president of sales enablement and marketing at SAVO, this trend is close to both my head and my heart. The writing has been on the wall for the better part of 2013 − marketing's interest in sales performance is evolving beyond simply qualifying leads. Activities following the handoff are coming under greater scrutiny and marketing is expected to step up and support the initial stages of the sales cycle as much as they support the sourcing of new leads. It's not uncommon for executives to spotlight marketing investments – they tend to cost the most − but it's increasingly difficult to tie the investment to revenue. Marketing needs to focus on demonstrating the ROI of these investments and the CMO needs to lead the charge towards implementing better practices.
A hot trend that brings this to the forefront is content marketing. I know, I know, you're probably thinking "Content marketing? I GET IT ALREADY." But I'm not sure any of us quite "gets" it just yet. It's a new beast with great potential for attaching marketing metrics to revenue attainment. However, research keeps coming back with a big fat goose egg in terms of content marketing ROI. Research from Forrester recently found that 80 percent of qualified, nurtured leads don't move forward after the sales handoff. Unfortunately, this is no better than the ROI we see using more traditional marketing tactics. So what are we missing? Where's the gap between the buzz and execution?
Simplification of the Salesperson's World
Imagine it's your first day of college and you start your day with a calculus course – difficult enough in its own right, but instead of giving you one book to learn from, your teacher gives you five different textbooks, each serving up different approaches to the material. Sales reps today often feel the same overwhelming sense that many students would in the above scenario. Year after year, sales reps reset their initiatives with a new sales methodology and/or new sales training. In fact, companies spend billions of dollars on these programs annually – and all of the investments land right on the shoulders of sales reps without any sort of guidance as to which assets are the best for any given situation. The way they're marketed, every methodology is right for every situation, exempting a certain finesse between the various approaches. Not only does this impact sales and marketing leadership's ability to measure performance based on rep activity, but it also draws resources away from more effective activities that could be driving revenue. I believe companies will start to realize the pain this disjointed strategy is causing, and will work to determine a means for driving reps to a single point of reference.
These are just a few of the big trends I anticipate we'll see come to fruition in 2014. But now, if you'll excuse me, it's time to celebrate the holidays. Have a happy New Year!

DIY Ideas for a Ducky Themed Baby Shower
Throw an adorable bash for the mom-to-be with these DIY ideas for a duck themed baby shower!
Baby ducks have long been a traditional theme for baby showers - they're cute, gender neutral, and a wonderful symbol for new life. However, as any theme that's been done a million times before, yellow and cute can get…a little bland.
That's where this modern take on the traditional theme comes in. I used a graphic grey-and-yellow motif with pops of teal, to add a little more contrast and vibrancy to the party. The result was a fun and bright baby shower for one lucky mom-to-be!
Table Decor
On the tables, we kept with a simple set-up, using plain white table cloths and the chevron fabric as a runner. White plates were topped with simple circles of yellow scrapbook paper for a pop of color. A rubber duck with a ribbon around its neck and a stripy straw made a nice vignette. The table centerpiece was also made to be clean and easy; a painted rubber duck, a wooden letter, and vase of yellow and white flowers perfectly finished the table.
DIY Duck Glasses
Personalized duck wine glasses were set at each seat, which can easily double as a pretty party favor. Such a cute and simple way to dress up those drinks!
A Sweet Dessert Spread
For the dessert table, a series of inexpensively framed ducks created a bright backdrop. (Get DIY instructions for making the frames here). The table was covered in lengths of grey and yellow polka dot fabric, along with a contrasting white chevron fabric - both purchased at the local national chain fabric store. There is no need to do a lot of sewing for these types of temporary tablecloths and runners; just folding under the edges and ironing provides a hem good enough to bring the piece through a party.
Decadent Desserts
Dessert samplings were all offered in our yellow, grey and white color theme: banana crème trifles served in martini style dessert glasses ; a selection of white candies in yellow metal buckets; and chocolate-dipped marshmallows topped with sugar ducks and pearls.
Tiny Ducky Details
White candies in yellow buckets were placed around the room and adorned with an adorable tag that reads "little babies are just duckie" to really bring the theme together.
The Gorgeous Grand Finale
The cake is a simply frosted lemon cake banded with satin ribbon. (Get the how-to for decorating your cake with a fabric ribbon here). White serve ware was chosen to go along with the color theme.
Sweet Treat Party Favors
The event ended on a sweet note with this DIY party favor idea that fit perfectly with the theme and color scheme. You can even use them to decorate by hanging several on a clothespin until it's time to send these cuties home with guests.

text: P0jahn 307 Report post Posted January 15, 2013 I have a turret in my 2D game, a turret capable of firing projectiles at its target(often the main character). The turret is rotating so it is "pointing" at the target, if it can see it. However, the rotation speed is instant. For example, the target is at the bottom-right-edge of the map, now the target somehow teleported to the top-left-edge of the map. You wouldnt see the turret rotating towards the top-left-edge. Instead, it would just immediately change. So I want to implement some sort of rotation speed mechanism. Here is an idea I came up with: The turret is associated with an object that is moving in a circular path. Lets call this circular-moving object for c. c is following the target. Since c is restricted to move in a circular path, it cant follow the target. So by follow, I mean whether it should move clockwise or counter clockwise. How to detect this, I haven no idea. Then, we use an algorithm explained here: http://www.gamedev.net/topic/636343-get-a-points-coordinate/ , check if the target is intersecting with this line. If it is, we set c's movespeed to 0 and the turret can fire. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Microscope Matt - IScience brain teasers require understanding of the physical or biological world and the laws that govern it.
Microscope Matt is an employee for a top-notch science company.
Today, he had signed up to use the big scanning electron microscope for the first time. He had received so much training and taken many classes to be privileged to use this machine.
He had prepared a sample of an ant to be examined. Matt put the ant on the plate, and activated the machine. He took a look at the monitor, and saw a red fire ant, in the process eating what appeared to be a plant leaf - exactly what he had prepared.
Matt was positive that someone was pulling a prank on him. He checked the cables from the monitor and, sure enough, they didn't connect to the microscope.
How did Microscope Matt know he was being tricked?
HintWhat kind of microscope?
AnswerThe image of the ant appeared in color - something an ELECTRON microscope cannot show. Only light microscopes can show color.
Note - Images CAN be colored afterwards.

Soorasamharam date based on Tamil Calendar. Soorasamharam, or Surasamharam, is the penultimate day of Skanda Shasti fasting. Soorasamharam 2017 date is October 25. The popular belief is that Lord Muruga killed Soorapadman with his 'Vel' and this divine act is known as Soorasamharam. On the day, devotees celebrate this victory of good over evil and restoration of Dharma. The next day is observed as Thirukalyanam - the divine marriage of Muruga and Devasena.
According to Skanda Purana, the demons under the leadership of Surapadma, Simhamukha and Tarakasura defeated the Devas and took over the earth. They started harassing the human beings and there was Adharma all around.
Lord Brahma, the demi-gods and humans prayed to Lord Shiva to intervene and to put an end to the demons Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati gave birth to Lord Muruga – the most handsome god and the commander of the Devas.
Lord Muraga then appeared to fight the demons and the fight continued for six days and killed all the attendants and friends of demon Surapadman. On the final day, there was intense battle between Muruga and Soorapadman.
Finally, Lord Muruga pierced the body of Surapadma with his Vel (lance). Suddenly, demon Surapadma transformed into a huge mango tree but Lord Muruga cut the tree vertically into two pieces with His Vel.
The two pieces transformed into a peacock and cock. Lord Muruga took the peacock as his vahana or vehicle and the cock was given a place on his banner. This event is popularly known as Soorasamharam.
The famous 'Vetri Vel' chanting that takes place on the Shasti day is associated with the victory of Skanda over demon Soorapadman.
The day is of great significance at the Lord Muruga Temples in South India,
Malaysia, Singapore, South Africa and . The most famous Soorasamharam festival takes place at the Sri Lanka - the divine action of Lord Muruga is re-enacted on the day and it is witnessed by thousands of people. Tiruchendur Murgan Temple

When summer rolls around, I always look forward to sinking my teeth into a wedge of watermelon — its sweet juices cooling my throat and dripping down my chin in equal measure. And when it gets super hot outside, I think about those watermelon Italian ices from the ice cream truck or pool snack bar, eaten very carefully with a small wooden spoon. For me, watermelon equals summertime.
So for my next Jell-O recipe, I decided to captured that sweet watermelon flavor and added a tart, adult twist. Made with watermelon cubes, freshly squeezed lime juice and a splash of vodka, this Jell-O is perfect for serving at a backyard pool party or other outdoor affair. The pureed watermelon gives the mold more substantial texture — similar to that of a frozen treat — which just may force some impromptu childhood reminiscing.
Spiked Watermelon Limeade Jell-O
Makes: 5 cups
3 tablespoons (3 envelopes) of unflavored gelatin powder
3/4 cups cold water
1 cup boiling water
1 cup white sugar
4 cups chopped watermelon, with seeds removed
1/2 cup lime juice (fresh squeezed or from concentrate)
1/2 cup vodka (or water for the non-alcoholic version)
To make the watermelon limeade Jell-O mold:
In a large bowl, sprinkle 3 tablespoons (3 packages) of unflavored gelatin over the cold water and allow the gelatin to absorb the water for 2 minutes. Stir in the boiling water until gelatin is fully dissolved. Stir in the sugar until it is dissolved.
In a blender or food processor blend the watermelon and lime juice until it is liquefied.
Whisk the watermelon-lime mixture and the vodka into the gelatin-sugar mixture in the large bowl.
Refrigerate the mixture until it thickens to the consistency of a gel. Stir to evenly distribute any watermelon flesh that may have risen to the top. Gently spoon the mixture into a 5 cup mold. Refrigerate until firm, about 8 hours or overnight.
To unmold, fill a sink, basin, or large bowl with warm water. Dip the mold just to the rim in the warm water for about 15 seconds. Lift from water, hold upright, and shake slightly to loosen the gelatin from mold. Place a cold, moistened plate over the top of the mold and invert the plate and mold together. Carefully lift the mold, if gelatin does not release dip the mold in the warm water and try again.
Garnish with a mint sprig and serve.

Tip: If you don't have a collection of gelatin molds on hand, try some mold alternatives such as bundt pans, loaf pans, metal mixing bowls or large food storage containers. If you want to dive right in a buy a mold, eBay is the best place to start your search.

The national mortgage delinquency rate will remain well above normal levels in 2013, mainly because of mortgages that have been past due for more than a year, according to a forecast by credit rating agency TransUnion.
The rate -- which includes all loans that are more than 60 days late -- is expected to drop slightly by the end of next year but will stay above 5 percent.
The "normal" delinquency rate (an average from 1999 to mid-2007) is about 1.6 percent, says Tim Martin, group vice president of U.S. housing in TransUnion's financial services business unit.
"If we continue at this pace, you are talking about another 10 years before we get back to normal" he says.
On the bright side, he says the high rate is mostly driven by loans that have been delinquent for more than a year, rather than borrowers who recently fell behind on their payments. When the loans that have been past due for more than a year are removed from the calculation, the delinquency rate falls to about 2.5 percent, he says.
Another sign that this is an old problem? More than 80 percent of the loans that are delinquent were taken out prior to 2008, he says.
"The new (loan) originations are performing very well," Martin says.
According to TransUnion's projections, by the end of 2013, the states with the highest mortgage delinquencies will be:
Florida: 11.68 percent
Nevada: 8.35 percent
New Jersey: 7.68 percent

Answering the Mysteries of Jesus Christ - Feb. 17Wednesday, February 17, 2016
Quote of the Day
"At first glance, the beginning of Matthew is a less-than-exciting literary starting point of the New Testament. It is a list of "begats" tracing Jesus' lineage back to Abraham."
~R.C. Sproul (from "Why Should We Study Genealogies?")
Today's Answer
Two Different Ways of Trying to "Save" Ourselves?
Tullian Tchividjian
This seems to be a common misunderstanding in the church today. I hear people say that there are two equal dangers Christians must avoid: legalism and lawlessness. Legalism, they say, happens when you focus too much on law, or rules. Lawlessness, they say, happens when you focus too much on grace. Therefore, in order to maintain spiritual equilibrium, you have to balance law and grace. Legalism and lawlessness are typically presented as two ditches on either side of the Gospel that we must avoid. If you start getting too much law, you need to balance it with grace. Too much grace, you need to balance it with law. But I've come to believe that this "balanced" way of framing the issue can unwittingly keep us from really understanding the gospel of grace in all of its depth and beauty.
Some people avoid the gospel and try to "save" themselves by keeping the rules, doing what they're told, maintaining the standards, and so on (you could call this "front door legalism").
Other people avoid the gospel and try to "save" themselves by breaking the rules, doing whatever they want, developing their own autonomous standards, and so on (you could call this "back door legalism").
... Both are legalistic in this sense: one "life rule" has as its goal the keeping of rules; the other "life rule" has as its goal the breaking of rules. But both are a rule of life you're submitting to—a rule of life that is governing you—which is defined by you and your ability to perform. Success is determined by your capacity to break the rules or keep the rules. Either way you're still trying to "save" yourself—which means both are legalistic because both are self-salvation projects.

When advertisers put pressure on news organisations, it's often a sign press freedom is threatened. From South Africa to Hong Kong, public opinion puts companies or governments that use their commercial clout to protest against editorial policy on the side of the bad guys.
It's symptomatic of the sorry state of UK news media that in the widening scandal over phone-hacking, the reverse is true. Read more

Hair How-To: Amanda Seyfried's Soft, Romantic Waves
Loving Amanda Seyfried's soft, sexy, and super romantic waves from the National Board of Review Awards Gala? Here's how to get the look at home!
-Lucia Peters
Les Miserables is already receiving all sorts of accolades this awards season—as are its stars, as much for their superb sense of style as for their talent on the silver screen! This past Tuesday, Amanda Seyfried, who plays Cosette in the film, accepted the Best Ensemble award with her costars at the National Board of Review Awards Gala. She wore a gorgeous Bottega Veneta dress for the occasion, the finishing touch of which was a romantic, soft, wavy hairstyle. Love the look? You're in luck: Sebastian Professional Lead Stylist Thomas Dunkin, who created the style, has some easy how-to tips to achieving the same timeless look. Read on for all the deets!
Read 4 Easy + Glam, Celeb-Inspired New Year's Eve Hairsyles
1. First, blow dry hair; then apply a generous amount of Sebastian Professional Shaper Zero Gravity ($16.66, amazon.com) to the lengths and brush through. Hair should feel textured.
2. Spritz hair with Sebastian Professional Trilliant ($7, amazon.com) for thermal protection.
3. Take eight sections of hair at random, place a large hot roller at the root of each, and wrap each section around the roller. Pro tip: It's super important to start the rollers at the root of each section, rather than the ends. Starting at the root adds wave and volume to the hair; starting at the ends just creates regular ol' curls.
4. Once the rollers are cooled, remove them and run fingers through the hair for a polished yet casual effect. Finish off with another spritz of Sebastian Professional Shaper Gravity ($16.66, amazon.com), and ta-da! Gorgeous, soft, and super sexy waves.

The Ilkley-based chief executive of a human rights charity was fired from a Bradford law firm after it accused her of using the firm's cash to bankroll her lifestyle and charitable work, an employment tribunal heard.
The panel ruled that mother-of-four Anjum Tahirkheli, 46, was unfairly dismissed from her position as financial director of Khan's Solicitors in Sunbridge Road, Bradford, because the firm had failed to follow a fair procedure.
But Employment Judge Susan Cox, in a scathing judgement following a two-day tribunal hearing, found it would not be "just and equitable" to award her a penny in compensation for loss of earnings saying she was the "author of her own downfall".
The judge described Mrs Tahirkheli, who is the head of Bradford-based charity Basic Human Rights which provides overseas aid to victims of floods and war, as "one of the most unreliable witnesses it has ever heard" and was "evasive, unclear and self-contradictory".
Judge Cox said the tribunal was satisfied the firm had reasonable grounds to believe she was guilty of misconduct and said the panel was struck by how "complete was Mrs Tahirkheli's refusal to accept she had acted in anyway inappropriately in her administration of the firm's affairs".
"She appeared to have no basic grasp of the need for integrity and accuracy in the firm's accounts or, specifically, the need to draw a distinction between expenditure on the firm's behalf and that on behalf of herself, her family and charitable interests," Judge Cox said.
Yesterday Mrs Tahirkheli, of Ilkley, described the judgement as "perverse" and said she was instructing London counsel to appeal the findings and she challenged the law firm to report the matter to police.
In an eight-page written judgment, Judge Cox said Mrs Tahirkheli, who was married to one of the law firm's partners, was employed as office manager, but was later referred to as the finance director and was responsible for the administration of the firm's accounts and was a signatory to the firm's cheques.
The judgment said that, in July 2012, a director of the firm, Rashid Majid, looked through bank statements and saw numerous large payments leaving the office account for which he could not see a ready explanation.
The judgment went on: "Mr Majid's enquiries led him to believe that Mrs Tahirkheli had been guilty of gross misconduct, including transferring money out of the firm's office account without authority; withdrawing money for personal or charity expenditure and recording it as office expenditure; and sending money abroad without the other directors' approval or knowledge."
In September 2012, Mrs Tahirkheli was removed from the board with immediate effect. She was given no notice of the meeting. The firm wrote to inform her she had been dismissed "because of serious financial irregularities amounting to gross misconduct".
Mrs Tahirkheli alleged the reason she was dismissed was that the directors were conspiring to oust her husband Mohammed Sarwar Khan from the firm and needed to remove her.
But the tribunal said it was satisfied the reason the firm decided to dismiss her was its belief that she had been guilty of serious financial impropriety.
The tribunal heard evidence from Mr Majid of a substantial number of allegedly unauthorised transactions.
They included:
- the withdrawal of £20,000 from the firm's office account;
- several payments from the firm's account made abroad through currency exchange companies which the tribunal found was more likely to be related to Mrs Tahirkheli's overseas work with her charity;
- payments of up to £2,000 made from the firm's bank account to her children;
- and the purchase of a Range Rover in the name of the firm for £48,000 on June 1, 2012, which the judge described as "simply incredible that she had, or believed she had, authorisation to do so".
Responding to the Tribunal's findings, a senior spokesman for Khan's said an independent forensic accountant was going through the firm's books and on completion of that report it will consider reporting the matter to police.
The spokesman added: "We are pleased the Employment Tribunal confirmed that Mrs Tahirkheli was dismissed for gross misconduct and awarded her no compensation, despite our acceptance we could have followed a better procedure.
"Her actions caused considerable loss to the business.
"This is the second step in recovering our losses. The company has already succeeded in obtaining an injunction to return company property and this new judgment enhances our position.
"The company will now pursue legal proceedings to recover monies from all those concerned."
Anjum Tahirkheli said last night she was determined to clear her name. "I am instructing Queen's Counsel in London to appeal this judgement, which is perverse," she said.
She added: "It's a family-run business. We owned it. This was not public money. I was an employee and wife of the senior partner. I was authorised to transfer money. That money was coming from my husband's earnings.
"These allegations have brought my integrity into question. They have damaged the charity. I have not been fundraising because of this. It is sad.
"I am absolutely not guilty of any financial impropriety. The police have not been involved at any stage. I challenge the company to contact the police if they think I have committed serious impropriety."

SUGAR LAND, Texas - Sugar Land police chief Doug Brinkley is rolling out a new initiative aimed at reducing break-ins at homes and businesses.
The city is enjoying some of the lowest crime rates in its history. In a report to City Council, Brinkley reported the city's crime rate over the last five years dropped 18 percent involving assault, auto theft, burglary, homicide, theft, robbery and auto theft.
However, Brinkley also pointed out the city's crime rate last year rose by 8.6 percent.
Brinkley attributes most of the increase to a rise in break-ins at homes and businesses.
"Crazy, it's getting crazy," said Job Ratemo, whose pharmacy has been burglarized six times in less than two years. "I just hope the crime rate goes down."
Brinkley said he believes the people responsible for the burglaries in the city are a mix of teenage residents and those passing through the area.
"My home was broken into about two weeks ago and two of the people responsible were 17-year-old Sugar Land residents," said Brinkley.
Brinkley said Sugar Land's growth is pushing city limits closer and closer to major thoroughfares and surrounding cities.
"The lines between Sugar Land, Stafford, Missouri City are being blurred," said Brinkley. "It makes easier for criminals to come into the city and easier for them to get out."
Brinkley said he is rolling out a new community initiative to warn residents to be proactive when it comes to safeguarding their homes.
"About 16 percent of all our residential burglaries (had) unlocked doors, garage doors open," said Brinkley.
Brinkley also said many homes that were burglarized were equipped with alarm systems that had not been activated. Brinkley credits his home alarm with scaring off the two teens who broke into home before they stole anything.
"If you have a home alarm, turn it on when you leave and make sure your doors and garages are locked," said Brinkley.
Brinkley's report also cites a decrease in police response times. The report shows police response times averaged 2 minutes and 45 seconds in 2012, down from 4 minutes and 42 seconds in 2009.
"Sugar Land is a safe place, we just need to make sure it stays that way," said Ratemo.

Nagano, Japan
Trans-Pacific: Nagano is best known as host of the 1998 Winter Olympics, but this part of the Japanese Alps also draws beer pilgrims. That's due to Yo-Ho Brewing, a leader in Asia's rising craft beer scene. This pale ale is an ideal introduction to the work of brewmaster Masafumi "Mori" Morita.
Sierra salute: While Morita is a fan of Paso Robles' Firestone Walker, Yona Yona pays tribute to another California brewery: Sierra Nevada. If the flavors in Sierra Nevada Pale — full of vibrant, resinous Pacific Northwest hops — are a 10, Yona Yona has been turned down to 7. Hops nuzzle rather than bite; biscuit-like malts act as equal partners instead of supporting players.
Say what?: "Yona Yona" is Japanese for "every night," an apt name for this versatile, easy-drinking brew.
Numbers: 5.5 percent alcohol by volume; about 35 bittering units.
Rating: Three bottles.
Note: Beers are rated from zero to five bottles, with five reserved for Olympic champions.

The Be Colorado free and confidential health screenings return to the Boulder campus on Oct. 31 and Nov. 2, and this time they are bringing a special guest… a 38-foot-long "life saver" on wheels. Newly launched, the Pink Life Saver is a mobile mammography coach designed to travel throughout the metro Denver area.
The mission of the Pink Life Saver is to provide convenient and easy access for women to have their annual mammogram. The American Cancer Society has identified lack of convenience/time as the number one reason women choose not to get this life-saving exam. Provided by the University of Colorado Hospital Breast Imaging Department at the Diane O'Connor-Thompson Breast Center, the Pink Life Saver says, "no more excuses."
Campus community members interested in making an appointment should call (720) 848-1030. A woman cannot get a mammogram if she was diagnosed with breast cancer within the past two years, is currently being treated for breast cancer, has a new breast problem or she is breast feeding or has breast fed within the last six months.
Other health screening services will include a Lipid Profile with Glucose (total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, triglycerides and blood glucose), blood pressure and measurement of height, weight and waist circumference and a health assessment profile—a value of more than $200. Free flu shots are also available.
All health screening participants will be automatically entered to win 1 of 10 electric bikes. Be Colorado health screenings are absolutely private and confidential. The university will not see anyone's private health information. This would violate the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).
For more information, including scheduling your screening appointment, visit the website at www.becolorado.org.

U.S. Regional World Meeting of Popular Movements
The U.S. Regional World Meeting of Popular Movements (WMPM) took place February 16-19, 2017, in Modesto, California. The convening brought together hundreds of faith and social justice leaders from various cultures and communities from across the U.S., along with grassroots leaders from other countries. The Modesto meeting was the first U.S. Regional convening being organized in conjunction with three international world meetings that have taken place in Rome (in Oct. 2014 and Nov. 2016) and Bolivia (in Oct. 2015).

The future of humanity does not lie solely in the hands of great leaders, the great powers and the elites. It is fundamentally in the hands of peoples and in their ability to organize. It is in their hands, which can guide with humility and conviction this process of change. I am with you. Each of us, let repeat from the heart: no family without lodging, no rural worker without land, no laborer without rights, no people without sovereignty, no individual without dignity, no child without childhood, no young person without a future, no elderly person without a venerable old age.

The belief that those who are directly affected by unjust systems and structures have the best insight into knowing how to change them is central to CCHD. CCHD works to break the cycle of poverty by helping low-income people participate in decisions that affect their lives, families and communities.

First, it's David Beckham learning the hard way why you never turn down John Travolta's invite to a Sea Org cruise, then there's Richard Gere holding a statuette of a tiny, mythical creature of lore that undoubtedly is going right up his ass, and finally, there's Young Commissioner Gordon doing this, which isn't necessarily about the difficult brown, but reminds me of when a dog shits and their legs shake and they look at you like "C'mon man, do you have to giggle like that?

A TEENAGE Warrington boxer has secured the Merseyside and Cheshire welterweight youth title.
Billy Potter, 16, boxes for Hook and Jab ABC, which is based at Palatine Industrial Estate in South Warrington, and beat Everton Red Triangle's Reece Jameson to a unanimous points' victory.
The pair served up an-all action affair, standing toe-to-toe for three hard-fought three-minute rounds at Croxteth Leisure Centre in Liverpool.
Coach Derek Groarke said: "Billy is an exceptional talent and he proved this, in what was a very close fought bout.
"Billy was pushed all the way by Reece, right until the final bell, but in the end his skills and commitment rightly saw him named the winner of the Cheshire title.
"The fight gave him the opportunity to test himself against a quality opponent, an invaluable experience as he aims for amateur boxing success."
While the action was aggressive, the pair also showed quality technical ability too, with both demonstrating exceptional compact boxing skills.
As well as the Merseyside and Cheshire youth event being a new tournament, it also represented a significant first for Billy's boxing club.
He was the first fighter to represent them under their new name of Hook and Jab ABC, having been known for 23 years as Bridgefoot Police Amateur Boxing Club.
Billy Potter is a former semi-finalist at the prestigious Amateur Boxing Association of England (ABAE) Schoolboy Championships tournament, the famous national competition that has been a springboard to success for many of Britain's most celebrated boxing stars.
Groarke added: "We recently decided to rename our amateur boxing club, so it would share the same name as the gym we train at – Hook and Jab.
"Billy's fight was his first-ever one under this new moniker, so we are really delighted to mark this special milestone with his title success."

New interim executive director named for state brand committee
More Ag News
Kimberly Jo Small, 51, of North Platte was sentenced Monday to 36 months of probation and 90 days in jail for unauthorized use of a financial transaction device.
Defense attorney Stephen Potter asked Lincoln County District Judge Richard Birch for probation, after noting the court would likely ask for some up-front jail time as well as restitution.
Deputy Lincoln County Attorney Jennifer Wellan asked for penitentiary time. She said a significant amount of money was stolen and Small took advantage of her own family.
Potter argued that time in the pen would not help because Small is now working and would not be able to pay restitution from the pen.
Small had pleaded no contest to the charge.
Birch allowed her two-and-a-half-weeks to report to the jail because she said her employer is on vacation and she is needed at work until they return.
She was ordered to report to the county jail on Oct. 5, and also ordered to repay her parents an amount that the attorneys will mutually set.
Clemente Carrizales, 29, of Hershey appeared in court for his alleged role in the assaults of two teenagers on a beach of the Sutherland Reservoir in May.
Carrizales is charged with aggravated assault, use of a weapon to commit a felony, driving under suspension, driving under the influence of alcohol and refusal to take a chemical test.
Carrizales pleaded not guilty to the charges in July. He has been is held in the county jail since May 18. His bond, originally $125,000, is currently $25,000.
Deputy Lincoln County Attorney Tanya Roberts-Connick said prosecutors need more time to gather and process information.
Defense attorney Kent Florom asked for a jury trial and a bond reduction.
Roberts-Connick argued that the bond should remain the same, citing the defendants history of trouble with the law. She noted that the alleged victims were very young and had to be treated at a hospital.
Lincoln County District judge Richard Birch set a trial date of Oct. 9 and refused to lower the bond.
I have reduced the bond once and cannot go any lower than the $25,000, Birch said.
Carrizales and Juan Felipe Martinez of North Platte were both charged with assaults after a teenage girl said that Martinez raped her, investigators said. She got away, returned to her campsite and told friends. Martinez and Carrizales came to the campsite and a young man stepped up to protect her and was attacked by Carrizales and Martinez, according to a Lincoln County Sheriffs statement. Carrizales allegedly hit the man several times with a log from the fire, burning him and setting his hair on fire. The girl tried to help and was again physically assaulted, the sheriffs statement said.
Deputies picked up Carrizales and Martinez later in a car on So. River Road and arrested them. Carrizales was driving.
Christopher Angelo Gonzales, 29, of North Platte, was arraigned on charges of tampering with a witness, child abuse, and assault by mutual consent and criminal mischief.
The tampering with a witness charge was alleged after Gonzales was jailed on the other charges. Prosecutors said he made phone calls from the jail, trying to manipulate a witness.
Gonzales pled not guilty.
Defense attorney Robert Lindemeier asked for a jury trial and a bond reduction. Birch declined to reduce the bond, which remains at $12,500, and set a jury trial date of Oct. 9.
Birch recused himself from the trial because as an attorney, he once represented the victim.
Shadoe Wright, 21, was convicted Monday of attempted sexual assault of a child and procuring alcohol for a minor.
Wright pled no contest to the charges. Birch ordered a pre-sentence investigation and set sentencing for Oct. 12. He advised her that she will have to register as a sex offender.
Defense attorney Kent Florom asked her bond be reduced to $10,000, and Birch granted the request. Wright has been in jail since May 31 on her fourth arrest since 2010.

Medical Definition of Cranial nerve, third
Cranial nerve, third: The third cranial nerve is the oculomotor nerve. The cranial nerves emerge from or enter the skull (the cranium), as opposed to the spinal nerves which emerge from the vertebral column. There are twelve cranial nerves.
The oculomotor nerve is responsible for the nerve supply to muscles about the eye:
Paralysis of the oculomotor nerve results in drooping eyelid (ptosis), deviation of the eyeball outward (and therefore double vision) and a dilated (wide-open) pupil.
