Yes, they're different. :-) Static first initialization acts differently from readConfiguration if you take a look at the source code. :) But I do agree that we should not change jre config in this way! I suggest solve this problem in following way: 1. backup jre default logging.properties in ant before running logging test. 2. copy test logging.properties to jre before running logging test. 3. restore jre config when logging test ends.

Luqman and his words of wisdom - Part 2
Some of the admonitions given by Luqman to his son are:
O My son! From the very day you have arrived in the world you have turned your back to the world and verily turned your face toward the Hereafter (you have started your journey toward the Hereafter from the very moment you were born), and you are passing various stages of that journey. Hence the house towards which you have turned your face is coming nearer and nearer to you and the house in which you are now is getting more and more away from you every day. O my son! Be a companion of the wise and sit with them and do not argue with them that they may prevent their knowledge from you. Take from this world only that which is essential and enough for you. Also do not give up earning in this world that you may become needy (and others may have to care for you). Also do not get involved so much in this world that you may lose your Hereafter. Fast to an extent your passions are controlled. Do not fast so much that you may not have strength enough even for performing your prayer because Allah loves prayers more than fasting. This world is a deep ocean. Innumerable people have drowned in it and destroyed due to it. So it is essential for you to make faith your ship for saving yourself from the dangers of this world. You should make 'Reliance on only one Allah' the sail of your ship. You provision in the ship should be avoidance of the illegal and the undesirable. Thereafter if you are saved it is due to Allah's Mercy and if you get destroyed it is because of your sins. According to another narration, "O Son! Make the fear of Allah your ship and that the capital you should put in it should be faith in Allah, His Prophets and their Words. The sail of your ship should be reliance on Allah; the captain must be intelligence which should direct its course; its guide ought to be knowledge and its anchor should be refraining from the prohibited and patience for bearing the hardships in obeying Allah.
O Son! If you learn discipline in childhood you will benefit from it after you grow up. One who knows the grace of good behavior tries to achieve it and who cares to achieve it also tolerates the hardships of that path and the one who achieves virtues like this also makes great efforts in maintaining them and when he obtains those virtues he adorns himself with them and when he becomes the embodiment of those virtues he gets their benefits in both this life and in the Hereafter. So be habituated with good habits so that you may prove to be the heir of the virtuous and benefit those who come after you, that they may follow your footsteps and your friends may hope for good from you and your enemies remain afraid of you. Never remain slack in the matter of attaining virtue nor pay any attention to anything except good behavior and habits. If people defeat you and snatch away the world (material things) from you, do not worry. Rather try to assure that you may not be defeated in the otherworldly (spiritual) matters; that no one may be able to snatch away the Hereafter from you that is, you may not obtain knowledge from where it should be obtained. You must set aside some hours in the day and night for achieving knowledge because there is nothing which can destroy man's knowledge. The example is that of giving up learning. It means, giving up learning is the results of your losing whatever knowledge you have learned. (So be after it and continue learning). Do not quarrel with the quarrelsome nor argue with any wise and learned person. Do not make the rich your enemy and do not keep company of the oppressors and do not cultivate brotherhood with a sinner nor sit with a disgraced and notorious person and keep your knowledge hidden just as you hide your wealth.
My precious son! Fear Allah, as He deserves to be feared. Be afraid of Him even if you have at your credit all the virtues and good deeds done by all men and jinn if you have to stand before Him for giving account of your deeds. You should always be afraid of His chastisement. Similarly also remain hopeful of His Mercy even if you have sinned totaling the sins of all men and jinn and be hopeful that He will forgive you. Hearing this, the son said, My respected father! From where can I get enough strength to entertain both hope and fear together when I have only one heart in my chest? Luqman said, My son! If a faithful heart is cut open two rays will come out o it. One light of the fear of Allah and the other light of hope from Allah. If both the lights are weighted neither will weigh either more or less even by the weight of an atom. So one who believes in Allah, also testifies to His Words and the one who testifies His Words also acts according to His commands and if someone does not act according to the word of Allah then surely he did not understand (believe) the words of Allah because some of the virtues give witness of some other virtues. So the one who has truly and sincerely believed in Allah will surely act honestly for Allah with a hope for good. One who acts in this way really believes in Allah and the one who believes in Allah also fears Him and the one who fears Him loves Him and the one who loves Him also obeys Him and the one who obeys Him makes himself eligible for His pleasure and Paradise and the one who does not want Allah's pleasure makes His punishment swift upon him and I seek Allah's protection from His punishment.
O my dear son! Do not have a wish for the world and do not engage yourself in it because no creation of Allah is more worthless than the world in the sight of Allah. Do you not see that Allah has not made the worldly bounties the reward of His obedient nor has He made the worldly hardships the punishment of His disobedient and the sinners?
According to another reliable tradition, Imam as-Sadiq said that Luqman said (as a will) to his son: O my son! You must keep a weapon ready by which you can fell (defeat) your enemy and that weapon (tactic) is that you should shake hands with him and show pleasure to him without separating from him, without showing enmity to him so that he may reveal to you what is hidden in his heart about harming you.

MISSING, 04/09/2007. This box has not been successfully found by numerous boxers. I have since moved and am unable to check on it.
Child, dog, bicycle & stroller friendly.
Start at the parking lot of the Red Oak Nature Center.
Take a compass and ink - black is best.
About 2/3 mile round trip.
Be warned that you you will pass a lot of big metal debris along the side of the gravel road towards the end of the hunt - light poles, pipes, etc.
Take the bike trail and go to the right
The box you seek is not yet in sight.
You'll see a bridge and will still find
That letterboxing is on your mind.
Don't cross the bridge 'cause on the left you'll see
A gravel road with large metal things and debris.
Go down this road on the gravel,
Not much farther you'll have to travel.
Face the river with the hut at your back
To the right is your plan of attack.
Enter the footpath with lots of care
Debris and glass may be there to snare.
Under the diagonal tree you will be
When your compass reads 330 degrees.
Spades you will find
By this log, not in front but behind.

Greek Architecture For Kids
Greece is a beautiful place, with many islands and an impressive mainland with an interesting architectural history. You may know Greece best as a holiday destination as thousands of European, American and other nationalities head to either mainland Greece or islands such as Crete and Corfu every year, but the stunning buildings you will see while you're there didn't just spring from nowhere. So what is the history of Greek Architecture?
In around 6000 BC, Greek people started to move out of caves and natural dwellings into man made homes, but they weren't anything special. The civilians at the time made modest homes out of wattle and daub or just wood and thatched grass roofs. Nothing special, but not many of the homes you saw at the time were!
Later on, at around 4000 BC, with the influence of western Asia, who had made their way to much of Greece, people began to make slightly more advanced houses, a 'megaron' (which means big room) was, quite literally, a big room made out of stone and wood, with a porch like area at the front. As weather conditions are quite sunny most of the time in Greece, they didn't have to worry about shelter a lot of the time so this open plan design suited them well.
By the time Greek civilization reached roughly 1700 BC, architecture in the whole of the world had come a long way, and because of the Asian influence, the people of Greece had begun to build much more impressive buildings. A few palaces had already been built, but they became a lot more common and were now made of stone and were much bigger than their older buildings. Many were destroyed due to their flimsy nature, but were rebuilt as technology evolved and the Greeks entered the Iron ages. The Greeks believed in gods and goddesses, and many of the most impressive buildings were temples created in tribute to their gods.
Greek Temples
The first temples date back to around 800 BC, and often feature the 'column' design that the Greeks claim to have invented. You will probably have seen Greek Temples before, and their stereotypical look is a large rectangular building supported by these round columns, which are cylindrical, and look like big stone kitchen rolls. A photograph of a Greek temple is below.
The Romans also had a big influence on a lot of Greek architecture, and much like the coliseum in Rome, the Greek civilians also built impressive amphitheaters, where they would host plays and festivals which often were again dedicated to their gods. The theatres were one of the earliest examples of a rich cultural history in Greece, with many play writers and other early Greek cultural figures still studied and admired around the world today.
Up to the modern day, you will see many of the amazing historical buildings well preserved in Greece, many have become hotspots for tourists and have even become museums or paid attractions, whilst some are still used as places of worship and admiration.
Modern settlements in Greece are often made of white stone and are influenced by western styles rather than the more Asian styles you may have seen thousands of years ago. Greek architecture is well celebrated and even studied by people looking to go into restoration or using Greek styles and methods to build modern housing.
Beautiful Greek Women
There's no denying it, Greek women are among the most beautiful in the world. No bigotry intended, but there is something about the genetics of a stunning Greek lady that no woman in the world would turn down the chance to look like. One of the greatest sex symbols of the last 20 years in Jennifer Aniston is of Greek heritage as we already explored in our post about Greek Celebrities. She's not the only stunner on the list though, make no mistake!
Of course, ask a native of Greece and they'll tell you that their healthy, wholesome cuisine, and of course the fact that they stem from Gods and Goddesses, are the reasons for their beauty. I'm not here to explore the reasons though, merely appreciate these new age goddesses of Greece.
Lina Sakka – Amazing Greek actress Lina Sakka reminds us why we love that Mediterranean look. She's never really broken into Hollywood, and her CV is a modest list of Greek television and films, but even if you cant understand what you're watching, I'm sure you'll stay entertained with Lina in the shot.
Iliana Papageorgiou – Dolce and Gabbana model Iliana Papageorgiou (we can't pronounce her name either) is another reason to love the Greek ladies. She's definitely got the model vibe with sharp cheeks and a beautiful pout, proving that those lucky Greeks are built to be beautiful.
Katerina Stikoudi – Miss Hellas herself Katerina Stikoudi is not only one of the most beautiful and sought after women in all of the Greek islands, she's also a fully qualified Doctor and Children's swimming instructor in her spare time. Damn those lucky kids. Look out for her in the next miss world beauty pageant as she has represented Greece in the past.
Natali Thanou - Singer and blonde bombshell Natali Thanou is not what I think of when you say 'Greek Women', she's perhaps not the stereotypical beautiful, dark Goddess, but she's got something about her that men and women alike go crazy for. Oh, and she's not afraid to get her kit off in photos either.
Zeta Makripoulia is a Greek model, television presenter, Disc Jockey and actress, and with looks like that no wonder people keep giving her all these jobs. At 34, she's one of the oldest on our list, but you wouldn't know it to look at her. Watchers of Eurovision may remember her as a host in the 2006 competition.
Jennifer Aniston – I know, I've already mentioned her, but she deserves it, right? Jen is proud of her Greek roots, we're just damn grateful for them…

Music composition exercise
I've just finished this short choral music, made as an exercise for chord progression and voice leading in four sections: soprano, alto, tenor, bass.
Two chromatic chord progressions
While most diatonic chord progressions are based on the relations of the roots, some chromatic progressions can be thought as movements of voices. 1. If we have a minor triad in root position, and we move the 1st down and the 5th up by a semitone, then we get a minor triad in 6/3 position, and the root of the new chord is below the old one by a major third. Let`s see an example in D minor. The chords are: Dm, Bbm, F#m, Dm. The semitone movements are repeated 3 times, to get back to Dm, because 3×4 =

When family and friends entrust us to assist them as they consider how best to frame the funeral of a loved one or help with scattering ashes, we stand in our personal spiritual integrity without imposing it on those we are invited to honour.
It is a joy of human diversity that though we are not all the same we are of equal value in the web of life and Creoginity aims to authentically acknowledge and affirm those lives we are invited to celebrate.
During the course of life, many will discover a sense of the divine and may follow a faith in which they were brought up or that resonated with their understanding of the world in life. Others may organise personal values around threads of wisdom taken from several faiths and philosophies. Many cherish the golden rule that runs through all faiths:
"treat others as you would wish to be treated"
Some might experience life in ways that are not expressed in terms of faith, but which are nonetheless cherished as an integral part of their experience of the world, feeling that what is important is not so much what we believe as who we are and what we do.
Creoginity sees its role as that of honourably recalling the life of the deceased by respecting the values they expressed in life, whether Faith, Atheist, Humanist or other.
While David is a Christian minister offering services for Methodist, Anglican, URC and other denominations by invitation, he deeply recognises the genetic-spiritual connectedness between all people. He and his colleagues regard each person as a unique and wonderful being and affirm the benefits to all of cooperation across spectrums of faith, culture, philosophy and human endeavour.
David and his network partners are available, happy and willing to support Funeral Directors in offering Families and Friends of Deceased Souls, however they identified in life, meaningful frameworks for marking the end of a loved ones life.
We offer a compassionate link between Funeral Directors and Next of Kin, who we will assist and support as they express how they wish to frame their loved ones affirming funeral.
In this regard, David and other ministers he liaises with have undertaken Humanist, Pagan, Christian, Atheist and other funeral services.

(Using humour in funerals to authentically
capture the deceased's character)
© Rev. David (Punk Monk) Gray 2013
BACKGROUND and RESISTANCE
When Queen Victoria mourned her Albert, she set a tone for funerals in England that still influences the way we mourn 152 years later. The wearing of black, the dower tones of a minister reciting the 23 Psalm and periods of mourning had become the one size fits all approach to funerals. Professionals, including counsellors and mental health practitioners, wrote reams on the "journey of grief", defining how we were expected to respond at the death of a loved one. While useful for some, for others this "expert" driven framework effectively compounded powerful cocktails of emotions around following a death, especially for those who could not grieve according to the perceived convention. In the main, funerals had become humourless affairs.
Things began to change as the more joyful notes of Afro-Caribbean and other emerging cultures sang alongside our more solemn rituals and people began to talk about "Celebration of Life" as secular music increasingly took preference over traditional hymns.
The Anglican script for funerals is wonderful for those who find comfort in the familiar words, but after almost two decades of steering close to that script it was clear to me that for most people today, its formula's are not familiar and offer little connection or comfort to an increasing majority of people and People need connection when grieving someone who has been a huge part of their life.
After resigning my Anglican bishop's license, I was free as an Interfaith practitioner and Tau Franciscan member of the Society of Independent Christian Ministers to offer people services that were about them and their understanding of life, death and the cosmos. When people increasingly asked for my services, including many frustrated with churches they had belonged to but which had shown little Christ likeness towards women; children; other faiths; lesbian, gay, bi and trans people; other cultures; the poor and a long list of others who did not fit their limited view of what it is to be divinely loved human, I got a lot of flack. One senior churchman accused a family who had asked me to do their Mother's funeral of being misguided. Even though they had little connection with the church, in the midst of their grief he was trying to bully them into having a church service. I'd been totally unaware of this until he turned up at the service and collard me afterwards to tell me he would do all he could to use the influence of the bishops in the House of Lords to make it illegal for anyone other than a parish priest to do funerals for those not affiliated to a particular faith. It was only after he stormed off and family members came over to ask if I was ok that I learned the manipulative and offensive way he had tried to put pressure on them.
Another churchman (it was always the men) accused me of robbing the church of its rightful revenue because I reduce my fees for families who are struggling. In his view, the fee's had been set by synod and everyone should pay the full amount to the church. I even received a letter from a bishop demanding that I stopped doing funerals on "his" patch. But I've stood up to bullies all my life and was acutely aware through my previous work as a counsellor, mental health practitioner and social worker of how many people had been deeply damaged by such abusive assumption of authority over other people's lives. This had nothing whatsoever to do with the Jesus I know who meets people where they are, loves them for who they are and invites them graciously to reconnect with their selves of divine intention.
Thankfully, the world is changing and the majority of church folk are changing with it as they get back in touch with the gospel example of meeting others without judgement or dogma. As the old guard march into the sunset, a more wholesome church is emerging.
In time, those who think its about them and
personal power, position, income and theologically trained intellect will be replaced by honest to goodness men and women whose hearts are opened to the whole human family. Such people will realise that funerals, like weddings, naming ceremonies and other rites of passage – and they are rights as much as they are rites that no institution should monopolise – are not about them, but about the real, flesh and blood human beings they are invited to offer services that are only divine because, like Jesus, Gandhi and all great faith figures, they are truly human.
The words via which folk let go of a loved one have to mean something to them and have to be relevant to the life of the person they remember. Without such connection, people are in a low energy place from which it is difficult to move on.
When folk are grieving, the ingredients of that cocktail of emotions referred to previously may include: loss, anger, anxiety, guilt or pain. If the person delivering the service and in particular the eulogy that tells the story of the person being remembered listens carefully to what loved ones are saying and reflects this back in the delivery, funerals can become uplifting experiences that don't sweep grief away but, by reminding us of the authentic character of a person, help us move several steps out of the mire of grief on our journey of recovery.
Though the examples I'm about to give may not seem funny to anyone who didn't know the person they concern, to those for whom these accounts were written the humour was priceless and helped stimulate the ventilation of grief and the sharing of memories when people gathered at the local pub or in a family home for refreshments.
1: "Good Golly Miss Molly":
Molly, Ron's wife of over sixty years had died and he was feeling empty as we discussed the funeral together with his children. During our chat, Ron had got quite animated when talking about their courtship and the music they had enjoyed during the sparkle of their youth.
Solemn organ music played as I bowed before the closing curtains at the end of the service – before the sound of Little Richard belting out "Good Golly Miss Molly!" filled the chapel. When I offered that frail old man my arm, his eyes lit up and to the applause and laughter of his family, he and I danced out of the crematorium together.
Ron's son brought him to see me some months after Molly's funeral. Ron chatted animatedly about Molly's funeral and smiled as he hinted that I was to do his funeral soon. He was right. It too was energised by an authentic telling of his astonishing life.
2: Ghost Riders in the Sky:
When I met Dave to arrange his biker brother's funeral, what he told me recalled my memories of watching black and white news coverage as a youngster in which people claimed to have seen comets and UFO's dancing above Snake Pass between Manchester and Sheffield. Come the day of the funeral we went in to "Ghost Riders in the Sky". These extracts from the service will give you an idea why:
Extracted from 1970's news reports:
"News just in: two police officers patrolling in Derbyshire close to the town of Glossop late last Wednesday evening reported seeing strange lights travelling at speed along the Snake Pass".
"It was as if two comets were dancing over the tops", said PC Barrington. I've ne'er seem owt like it!"
"A couple parked in a lay-by at the foot of Snake pass last weekend claim to have sighted two Unidentified Flying Objects hurtling across the sky".
"It were proper eerie", said a young lady, who asked to remain nameless. "Who knows what might have happened if I'd not told him to get us out of there quickly? Why, we might have been kidnapped by Alien's!"
"I know what
have happened", said her companion, with a look of deep disappointment on his face.
FROM the EULOGY:
… Melvyn and his mate Icky were a couple of genuine, hallmarked greasers. Icky could strip a motorbike to the bone and put it back together in the time it took most people to boil an egg. Icky's hands wore a constant covering of grease and he and Melvyn had a little hobby that started a legend over in them there hills.
Snake Pass between Manchester and Sheffield is a favourite route for bikers. Back in the day, it was notorious for biker races. It was also notorious for biker fatalities. Nevertheless, Icky and Melvyn used to race across the Snake regularly at breakneck speeds. Being clever buggers, they took precautions. They didn't go slower, nor did they wear condoms.
O, no! The precautions Melvyn and Icky took were that they rode at night when you could see the headlights of approaching cars long before you were jam on their bonnet and being Gorton lads who'd learned a trick or two from– Gorton's Belle Vue Aces, the world's best Speedway team, like speedway riders the pair wore one boot of steel apiece, which they'd drag along the stony road as back-up brakes.
Those reports I read earlier are just some of the quotes relating to rumours of comets flashing over Snake Pass back in the day and of sightings of UFO's o'er the tops. Truth can now be told without fear of prosecution: those comets were none other than Melvyn and his mate Icky – the ghost riders in the sky.
3: ALBERT & the
When I visited "Uncle Terry's" loved ones, I learned that his dress sense – influenced by his love of Music Hall comedians – was totally uncoordinated. The day of the funeral I wore a red woollen jacket, yellow trousers, one red boot, one blue boot and a floppy fedora hat. The lips of the first four rows moved in precise synchrony with Stanley Holloway's rendition of Uncle Terry's party piece "Albert and the Lion" as they entered into the spirit of his life. The following excerpt from Uncle Terry's eulogy recounts his experience as a young soldier in Egypt during the Suez Crisis, where Terry's courage earned him a medal for being first in the NAFFI every morning.
"Now inevitably, with so many soldiers out in the desert there needed to be more than ample provision for their ablutions. When ower Terry was appointed to latrine duty, he remembered some words of wisdom he'd heard from a keeper at Belle Vue Zoo as a boy: "Never hang around the tail of an elephant you've given a laxative to!""
"That advice saved Terry a lot of bovver, for the effluence from all those calls of nature was stored in massive sewage tanks, which had to be disposed of somehow and somewhere. The British Army solution was to load them onto Lorries so a local driver, escorted by six sappers, could transport them far into the desert where the sappers could bury the evidence deep in the sand.
His fellow soldiers thought riding in the truck where they could catch the warm weather was a bit of an outing. Terry, of course, had other ideas. He always got into the cab with the driver where, despite the confined space and heat, Terry reckoned he got the best deal. It transpires that if the British had upset the locals in any way, the driver would find the bumpiest routes into the desert. What happens when a tank of effluence goes over a bump? Yes, you're ahead of me: it sloshes and it slops over the sides. Terry always arrived somewhat sweaty – but his mates always seemed to have travelled through a heavy shower of chocolate coloured rain…
A post conflict dig of those desert sands led to the discovery of a Mummy encased in a six inch layer of chocolate. It was a while before the archaeologists realised they had not, after all, discovered the remains of Pharaoh Rocher.
Conjuring up the character of the person they have known may help kick-start the sharing of memories that will continue at the wake, but what if you are dealing with deeper tragedy? Sometimes, it is the deceased themselves who guides you as to how best help their loved ones through the funeral.
When Lorraine Hill knew she was dying from cancer and would not see her three young children grow up, she showed a level of courage and wisdom that will stay with me to the end of my own days.
Lorraine talked with her partner and left him written instructions about practical things like school times, household bills and diets, but she talked with her children about how they should shape her funeral. Natalie, who would soon be eleven, remembered a "Mad Monk" from Gorton Monastery coming into her school.
"I know him", her Mother said. "That daft sausage will understand. Get him to do the funeral but you lot need to decide how it shapes up".
Nat's younger brother and sister were only small, but they enjoyed helping her and older brother Nathan design "Punk Monk" for the day of their Mother's funeral. As people turned up at the crematorium, they looked askance at the man dressed as a clown with a bright red Mohawk hair style.
"Its Ronald McDonald ob acid", one chap opined.
But when the cortege arrived and the children leaped out to greet me and receive colouring books and crayons, no-one was left in any doubt that today was for Lorraine's children.
The service was a telling of stories peppered with magic. Sensitively, Lorraine's children were reminded that their Mother's love was so strong that though she never wanted to leave them, she was doing so with such grace and bravery that they would never doubt the lasting bond of love between them and their Mother as they grew up.
I've done the funerals of children – sometimes more than once in the same family; of murder victims; people who died in tragic accidents; suicides and a whole range of scenarios. As a veterans chaplain I've done the funerals of soldiers, sailors and airmen. Each situation is different. There is no script that covers all the circumstances that crop up in this particular aspect of my work. Inevitably, there are tears at every funeral I do – often my own. Indeed, if a day dawns when I don't cry while preparing someone's service from scratch, it will be time for me to pass the mantle on to another soul. That said, if those grieving don't laugh at least once during the service, I will have failed to tap into their own inner resources; their incredible capacity to cope with life after the death of their loved one.
Of course, it's not just about humour. Faith, storytelling, science, music and so many other threads need to be woven into the tapestry of any funeral service. Neither is it just about the service. Many skills and qualities are involved in the contact with family members both before and after the day of the funeral itself.
There are, naturally, many good parish priests with the life experience and personal qualities to offer good services to the bereaved. Services like those provided by myself and other Creoginity ministers with Christian, Pagan, Humanist and Interfaith backgrounds represent an emerging trend towards remembering someone in a bespoke, celebratory service that honours the deceased persons own approach in life while tenderly regarding those who loved them.

Yesterday my family was meant to step out for lunch at Dad's place (beef curry and chicken curry was on the menu). But once the car was packed and everyone had their seatbelt on, the car coughed and wheezed, declaring that it had a head cold and under no circumstances were we going to make it anywhere in time for lunch.
With such an anti-climatic outcome at only 11 in the morning we were at a loss at what to do. We went for a walk, to get some fresh air, and by the time we were home it was agreed we would bake comfort food and eat said comfort food. Michael prepared a homemade chicken soup (he even used a real chicken), he also baked two pizzas, whereas I baked pecan pie for the first time ever.
The soup, pizzas and pecan pie came out perfect, see below evidence of our baking half a second before it got demolished.

Hmm, I'll have to ask Myra. She spends a lot of time in the library; she'd probably know. Myra always seemed to know everything. At the very least, she acted it, though he suspected that was just a symptom of being the youngest of the litter. She'd always been smaller and weaker than the rest of them, she had to have something to her name. Might as well be a know-it-all.
No, your 'instructions' were vague, and my 'manipulation' of the cookware was under your orders. Arlen began to hmph dramatically when a sharp jab to the ribs made him flinch and yelp all at once. Blood rushing to his face, he pointed an accusing finger at his friend. No tickling when I have a plate full of food you jerk! Before Damon could retaliate, Arlen danced around him and jumped into the couch quickly shoving himself into a corner and shielding himself with raised knees.
His green eyes locked onto Damon's face, watching for a reaction when he took a bite and took in the tiny nose scrunch. Sighing dejectedly, he began to taste it himself and grimaced in horror at what he found. Good lord man you have a stomach of steel. Wincing at him, he couldn't help but apologize for making a loved one eat such a thing, but also just what had this poor man eaten that was so bad that this didn't hardly faze him? And she actually expects you to eat it? How are you all still alive?
Despite his complaints towards his own cooking, he continued to eat it. It wasn't the tastiest but hey, food is food. Yeah, I'm still up for it. Might not wanna go right after eating this though... He could just see one of them getting sick all over the race track. It would be a miserable situation all around and best to avoid if at all possible.

Ask anyone who knows me, I am not high maintenance, so never think that I wouldn't visit out of a problem. If there is one, I address it instantly with kindness. You are one of the dearest people I have met in bloglandia and I visited yesterday at Castles and found your cool Nocturne place and commented! It was such fun to see. Be secure in my kind and grateful thoughts towards you dear friend. You are a treasure. Blessings and light on all you do and think.

Amy dear,
You know, there have been some computer problems lately and maybe that is what happened! There are a couple of blogs that when I visit them, disappear before my eyes and become advertisments! Oh how the unnecessary things of this world love to creep into what is beautiful and poetic!!!! Merci my friend...ANita

Cold Weather Feeding Strategies
What Influences Calf Growth? Nutrition Health Genetics Environment
Biology of Cold Stress Maintaining body temperature requires energy –Cold stress increases maintenance energy reqt Calves have limited capability to regulate their body temperature –Immature metabolism Preruminant – lack of ruminal fermentation –Lack of appreciable fat stores –Must consume enough calories to generate enough heat
Thermoregulation Thermoneutral zone –Range where maintenance energy requirements are relatively constant –50-80°F for young calves Lower critical temperature –Temperature at which maintenance energy requirements increase –More energy required to maintain core body temperature, at the expense of growth and immune function From the book The Development, Nutrition, and Management of the Young Calf; Davis and Drackley, 1998
Age Effects on Lower Critical Temperature Age Lower Critical Temperature Newborn Calf 50°F Month-old Calf 32°F Dry dairy cow 8°F Calves experience cold stress at moderate temperatures Lower critical temperature decreases with age, greater energy intake, and ruminal development Cattell, 1999
Environmental Effects on Critical Temperature Solar Environment Critical Temperature Dry, calm, sunny-7°F Dry, calm, overcast8°F Dry, calm, night22°F Dry, 10 mph wind, overcast 27°F Raining, 10 mph wind, overcast 35°F Housing environment impacts degree of cold stress Key Factors –Free of drafts –Dry –Deep bedding allows for: Insulation Nesting behavior Increased lying time Drier hair coat Cattell, 1999
Temperature Effects on Maintenance Energy Requirements Body Weight (lbs) ADG, lbs/day Metab.

Impacts of Cold Stress on Calves Deplete body fat reserves –Young calves dont have much anyway! –Can literally starve to death Depressed immune function –Energy not available to fight disease –Poor response to treatment Decreased growth performance
Key Management Practices Calf jackets Straw > wood chips or sand
Effect of Bedding Type Hill et al., 2007, PAS, 23:656 Straw: 82 lbs of gain thru d 56 Shavings: 73 lbs of gain thru d 56
Key Management Practices Calf jackets Straw > wood chips or sand Air quality –As barns get closed up, airborne bacteria may increase – greater respiratory and scours problems –Maintain air flow while eliminating draft Water availability –Offer warm water for 30 minutes twice daily
Cold Weather Calf Management Objectives –Exceed maintenance energy requirements and maintain desired growth rates –Focus on young calves <3 weeks old Nutritional strategies –Increase amount of powder 10 12 oz per 2 quarts –Utilize a fat supplement 2 to 4 oz/calf/day –Increase liquid feeding rate 2 2.5 to 3 quarts/feeding –Add a 3 rd feeding 2 quarts/feeding fed 3X
Considerations for Strategies Does the farm use bottles or pails? –Bottle size limits how much liquid is fed 2 quart bottles are common 3 quart bottles are available –Will be a factor in what strategy is recommended Key question: Increase energy density, feed more volume, or both?
Strategy #1: Increase Solids Percentage Standard mixing rates –8 oz dissolved in 2 quarts fed twice daily (12% solids) –10 oz dissolved in 2 quarts fed twice daily (15% solids) –12 oz dissolved in 2 quarts fed twice daily (18% solids) 18% solids is maximum recommended! –Ability to increase intake is limited w/ this approach –Mix rate of 12 oz/2 quarts is upper limit

Strategy #2: Use KCAL (7-60 Fat Supplement) What is KCAL? –7% crude protein, 60% fat supplement How much do we feed? –2 or 4 oz/calf/day How much fat if KCAL is added to a 20-20? –2 oz/calf/day = 24% Fat –4 oz/calf/day = 27% Fat
Strategy #2: Areas of Caution, Solids % with KCAL Influence of KCAL on Milk Replacer Solids Percentage KCAL Feeding Rate, oz/day Mixing RateNone2 oz4 oz 10 oz/2 quarts15.0%16.5%18.0% 12 oz/2 quarts18.0%19.5%21.0% Take-Home Message: Increase MR powder mix rate OR add a fat supplement, NOT BOTH

Strategy #4: Add a 3 rd Feeding of MR Solution Ideal Approach –Spread out feedings –Reduce risk of refusals Implementation Issues –Labor –Inconvenience Feed an extra 1-2 quarts at noon
Feeding Program All winter Add KCAL @ 4 oz/calf/day Mix MR @ 12 oz/2 quarts OR Feed an extra 1-2 quarts daily Daytime temp < 20°F Mix MR @ 10 oz/2 quarts

National History
In 1964, the Federal Government created a panel of child development experts to design a program to help communities overcome the barriers of young children living in poverty. The findings of that panel report became the blueprint for Project Head Start.
Project Head Start, launched as an eight-week summer program by the Office of Economic Opportunity in 1965, was designed to help break the cycle of poverty by providing preschool children of low-income families with a comprehensive program to meet their emotional, social, health, nutritional, and psychological needs. Recruiting children age three to school entry age, Head Start was enthusiastically received by education, child development specialists, community leaders and parent across the nation.
In 1969, Head Start was transferred from the Office of Economic Opportunity to the Office of Child Development in the US Department of Health, Education and Welfare, and has now become a program within the Administration on Children, Youth and Families in the Department of Health and Human Services. A well established, though still an innovative program, Head Start has had a strong impact on communities and early childhood programs across the country.
Head Start programs are operated by over 1500 community-based organizations. Grantees include school districts, universities, community health centers, tribal governments, Alaska Native Corporation, city and county governments, Community Action Agencies, and other profit and nonprofit organizations.
As of 2013, more than 31 million preschool aged children have participated in Head Start. The $7.2+ billion dollar budget for 2013 provided services to more than 903,000 children, 48% of whom were four years old or older and 52% three years old or younger.
The two squares represent early childhood by suggesting building blocks.
The arrangement of the blocks represent stairs by which this can be accomplished.
The vertical strips represent the child and parent.
The arrow pointing upward represents the direction out of poverty and on to the future.
The colors, red, white and blue represent the United States and the many opportunities it provides for its citizens.

Clinton To Arab Leaders: Reforms Needed Now
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Thursday warned Arab leaders that corruption and despotism threatens their countries with increasing extremism and internal rebellion unless urgent action is taken.
Clinton's stark warning, delivered at a regional development conference in Doha, Qatar, was underscored by an ongoing political crisis in Lebanon, civil unrest in Tunisia and Algeria and tensions over a disputed election in Egypt.
"Those who cling to the status quo may be able to hold back the full impact of their countries' problems for a little while, but not forever," Clinton said. "If leaders don't offer a positive vision and give young people meaningful ways to contribute, others will fill the vacuum."
"Extremist elements, terrorist groups and others who would prey on desperation and poverty are already out there appealing for allegiance and competing for influence," she said. "This is a critical moment and this is a test of leadership for all of us."
Wrapping up a four-nation tour of U.S. allies in the Persian Gulf that also included visits to the United Arab Emirates, Oman and Yemen, Clinton said the Arab world needed to make room politically and economically for the region's exploding youth population, women and minorities.
At each of her stops in the Gulf, Clinton met members of civil society, including women's rights activists, opposition leaders and students, encouraging them to speak out for reforms they see as necessary.
She said many leaders were failing "to build a future that your young people will believe in, stay for and defend," adding that others were poised to "fill the vacuum."
Clinton warned that many people in the region now understand what they didn't know two or three decades ago — namely "that much of a government's wealth is going to a few instead of the many in too many countries."
Clinton acknowledged that some countries in the region had made great strides toward better governance, while in many others people had tired of corrupt institutions and a stagnant political order.
She hailed planning, development and innovation in Abu Dhabi and Dubai and congratulated vibrant civic groups in Oman that have helped improve the standard of living to among the highest in the Arab world, but warned that "in too many places, in too many ways, the region's foundations are sinking into the sand."
But the limits of Clinton's message were clear in Yemen, a fragile, politically closed and impoverished nation that has become an outpost for al-Qaida-linked extremists planning attacks on the U.S. She said civil society in Yemen is viewed with deep suspicion by the government.
"There is not the level of cooperation that there needs to be to improve the lives of the Yemeni people and put Yemen on a firmer foundation going forward," Clinton said.

Jamal seeks Millers exit
By Peter ORourke
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
Rotherham winger Jamal Campbell-Ryce has submitted a transfer request.Rotherham winger Jamal Campbell-Ryce has submitted a transfer request.
The highly-rated midfielder is thought to have failed to settle in South Yorkshire and is keen on a move back south.
The former Charlton man has impressed at Millmoor since arriving last November.
Millers boss Mick Harford admitted he was disappointed at Campbell-Ryce's decision and he insists he will only leave for the right price.
"We are obviously disappointed at this request," Harford told the club's official website.
"He indicated during the summer that he was unhappy and I spoke to him to ask him to give it a period of time before he took any further action.
"If we receive an appropriate offer for Jamal we will help him in every way possible."
Meanwhile, The Millers are currently running the rule over centre back Nicky Ellis and Charlton Athletic striker Alex Varney.

New Jersey Republican Governor Chris Christie said on Saturday that he would attempt to pass the New Jersey Tuition Equality Act, which will grant in-state tuition at New Jersey's public colleges and universities for undocumented students in the country. Christie plans to pass the act in the state legislature's lame duck session.
His public endorsement contradicts his previous stance when he was against granting in-state tuition at public colleges to New Jersey DREAMers, undocumented students who were illegally brought to the country by their parents.
Christie was the keynote speaker at a gala hosted by the Latino Leadership Alliance of New Jersey, where he addressed his responsibility on issues relating to Latinos:
We're leaving them without hope that their lives will be great. I believe every child should be given the opportunity to reach their God-given potential. That's the moral requirement. We need to work together to make sure that that happens. We need to make sure that we continue to work on the issues that will make our children believe that they have a bigger and brighter future. We need to get to work in the state legislature around things like making sure that there's tuition equality for everyone in New Jersey.
Popular VideoThis young teenage singer was shocked when Keith Urban invited her on stage at his concert. A few moments later, he made her wildest dreams come true.
Gov. Rick Perry did not have much luck when he tried to support Texas' in-state tuition rates guidelines during the 2012 GOP presidential primaries.
Giancarlo Tello, a board member of the New Jersey Dream Act Coalition, said Christie privately guaranteed to the Latino Leadership Alliance that he would back the legislation, but this weekend was the first time he mentioned anything to the public.
Tello said Christie has the support of Hispanics in New Jersey, and he said that will strengthen the governor's candidacy in a GOP primary.
"He has presidential ambitions and I think this will boost him, especially him winning a blue state and reaching across the aisle," Tello said.
Popular VideoThis young teenage singer was shocked when Keith Urban invited her on stage at his concert. A few moments later, he made her wildest dreams come true:
Other states, like California, not only approved in-state tuitions, but also granted financial aid and scholarships.

Re: wasserman - wascherman - waterman
In reply to:
wasserman - wascherman - waterman
john f. 5/27/05
My great grandfather converted our name from Wasserman (or Wascherman) upon seeking refuge in Canada to Waterman. His name was Hyman Wasserman and family lore indicates he was from Russia, although we are uncertain. He fled the region upon the rise of anti-semitism and Nazism in Germany. Our origins prior to 1900 has long been shrouded in mystery.
I do not know if this is any help to you, but if it is inform me. Please do so by replying to this thread.
With hope,

Imagine the earworm.
Just a little panic attack as I contemplate that there are now fewer than 10 days till the marathon ...
I've heard so many people complain about the taper period before the race. I have to admit that I'm enjoying it though. Those long runs were getting crazy and our schedule just doesn't have that kind of free time for me to do 3 or 4 hour runs. Heck, this past weekend was going to be so busy that I took a vacation day on Friday to get my 10 miles done in the morning and be able to spend the afternoon with Matt before he went off to job #2.
Also bought an interval timer since I'm worried about my phone dying after 5+ hours. I need it to still have juice in case I want to stop for photo ops or to call 911, whatever. Still holding steady on wanting to finish by 5 1/2 hours ... but I will say that with my pace during the 18 and 20 mile runs, if I pan that out to a 26.2 mile distance, the pace calculator says I'll finish right around 5 hours. Still going to stick with 5 1/2 hours then hope to be pleasantly surprised.
So I have 8 1/2 days to stop eating junk (after I eat this brownie here - don't judge) and get plenty of sleep plus drink all the water (after my regular two cups of a.m. java - again, don't judge) and plan/pack my running outfit. No time to panic.
No time to panic.
No time ...

The family (and me, of course) just recently relocated to Durham, NH, and tonight I had the pleasure of playing my first "post-move" gig (I'm a drummer, remember?) with a new band up here. Not only did the gig go well musically, but the crowd, the club staff, and most importantly the band were all just fantastic people. I got along quite well with everyone, and was welcomed with open arms, both literally and figuratively. Nice when "life" stuff like that just works out. Score one (more) point for humanity. I'll sign for it. :-)
