Baylor isn't just an education – it's a way of life! Our Student Activities team, residential life team, and faculty and staff are all dedicated to helping students experience Baylor life at its fullest...
When you are making a decision on a new school, you are looking at a lot more than classes. And if you are considering a boarding school, you've also added "where to live" and "what to do on weekends" to your list. In this section we will help you get acquainted with our community as you begin to envision the full scope of life at Baylor.
Every high school has its social divisions among students, but what's so great about Baylor's community is its ability to cross those divisions to care for others. No matter who you are, your classmates and friends will come together and help you through any hardship.
To anyone who is hesitant about boarding school, I have seen in myself and others that it does a great job of helping shy kids to get out their shell and find their role in a supportive and loving community…I have never felt like someone didn't care about how I was adjusting to a new school and a new culture far away from home.
I was adopted after being found on a riverbank and now I live in Lupton Hall with dorm parent and Walkabout instructor Bett Adams. Every afternoon I get to tag along on canoe trips, hikes, or whatever fun outdoor things are going on -- and all of my Baylor people friends love to play with me. I am one lucky dog!
Jack lives in an apartment overlooking Lupton Circle with his wife Penny, Hunter Hall dorm head and English instructor, and their two children, Gus and Redding. "It's the greatest neighborhood in the world. It's a surreal community – I don't think there is another place like this to live."
There is always a steady stream of students (and visiting alumni) who gravitate to the grille for some straight-talk with Miss Kitty, who has worked at Baylor for nearly 40 years. "If I really wasn't concerned about the kids, I wouldn't work here. I like being around them and watching over them. This is what I like [about Baylor]. We are always thinking about the kids. And once they leave Baylor, they are still with you in your heart.
At home [Serbia] there was no such thing as competing for your school. At Baylor I was shocked by the support that the sports teams got from their classmates.
The Middle School is a close-knit supportive community and each student helps one another grow into a strong young person. A mix of care, camaraderie, and individuality creates an environment that is truly special to Baylor.
This school is filled with brilliant, funny, engaging teachers. They aren't afraid to push you, but they will encourage you every step of the way.
is no question that life at Baylor extends beyond the classroom. In addition to
the afternoon activity that is required of all students, most students also get
involved in clubs and other organizations that match their interests. How will you enrich your Baylor experience? Select a button below to begin the conversation.

Diamond Selling Hip Hop Superstar Nelly Signs Deal With Fox; First Up- FS1's Skip And Shannon: Undisputed
October 19, 2016
Diamond Selling Hip Hop Superstar Nelly Joins An Elite Group Of African American Actors On Television With Three Shows Concurrently Airing.
October 19, 2016
- As BET's Real Husbands of Hollywood premiere quickly approaches and with season two of Nellyville not far behind, actor and hip hop superstar Nelly has signed a new deal with Fox. For his first project, the rapper joins Skip Bayless, Shannon Sharpe and Joy Taylor on FS1's new sports-debate show Tuesday, Nov. 1 (9:30 AM ET), discussing the day's current sports topics. The appearance marks the rapper's new role as a contributing analyst to the show.
Joining this show launches Nelly into an elite group of less than five African American actors/musicians currently airing on three concurrent television shows.
"I can't wait to reunite with my man Nelly," says Bayless. "Seven years ago he was the first rapper we ever had on my former debate show, and he was a revelation. He can debate sports with the same passion, guts and clever creativity that he writes and performs his classic music. He and I share this: we think we've never lost a debate. Nelly was made for UNDISPUTED on FS1."
"I'm really excited to join FOX Sports and work with Skip, Shannon and Joy to discuss all the sports topics I love," says Nelly.
Nelly feels privileged to be among such talented African American men paving the way for future talent and raising the bar for industry standards. "With new music out, touring, Real Husbands of Hollywood out October 11th and Nellyville season two, Country Grammar going diamond and now getting to work with Fox Sports, this is a great year, and I'm excited to be presented with continuous new opportunities", says Nelly, "I usually just comment on sports from my couch, I'm very passionate about sports, so this is something I've always wanted to do and I'm looking forward to working with Fox, Skip and the team."
Nelly is a Grammy Award-winning rap superstar, entrepreneur, philanthropist, actor and newly recognized Diamond-selling artist known for his Billboard No. 1 hits "Hot in Herre" and "Cruise," as well as several No. 1 albums. His debut album, "Country Grammar" is only the eighth hip-hop album ever to sell 10-million records. He won Grammy Awards in 2003 and 2004.
In addition to his music career, he currently stars in his own television series "Nellyville," about his life balancing career and family. He is part of Kevin Hart's ensemble comedic cast in the pop culture parody "Real Husbands of Hollywood" and has acted in several films. Part-owner of the Charlotte Hornets, Nelly is a stellar amateur athlete and avid sports fan who brings his passion and his likable sense of humor to the table. Nelly lends his name to numerous philanthropic causes including Make-a-Wish and, most recently, Face Forward.
About Nelly
Multi-platinum, Grammy award-winning rap superstar, entrepreneur, philanthropist, and actor, Nelly, has continually raised the bar for the entertainment industry since stepping on the scene in 2000 with his distinctive vocals and larger-than-life personality. That year, his debut album, Country Grammar, landed Nelly four Grammy Award nominations and sold over nine million copies worldwide recently achieving diamond status. Nelly kept the momentum going with the 2002 release of Nellyville. The album debuted at #1 on top of scoring Nelly his first two Grammy Awards for "Hot in Here" - Best Male Rap Solo Performance - and "Dilemma" [feat. Kelly Rowland] - Best Rap Song Collaboration. He has since gone on to win multiple American Music Awards, a Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Award, Soul Train Music Awards, MTV Video Music Awards, and was crowned "Top Pop, Rap, and R&B/Hip-Hop Artist of the Year" by Billboard. Topping Hip Hop Charts, Country Charts and Pop charts makes him one of the most versatile music artists in the industry. In particular, "Hot in Herre " has stood the test of time having recently debuted at No. 6 on Billboard & Clio's Top Commercials chart, powered by Shazam, with "HandClap." 2013-2016 brought top singles "Cruise" reached diamond status, "The Fix" sampling Marvin Gaye, and summer sixteens dance anthem "Millionaire" with Cash Cash and Digital Animal Farm. The St. Louis native released his seventh full-length album in 2013, M.O. [Republic Records] featuring guest appearances by Nicki Minaj, Pharrell, Future, T.I., and 2 Chainz as well as production powerhouses Rico Love (Beyonce, Usher) and Detail (Lil Wayne, T-Pain).
In 2016, Nelly was featured in an unique opportunity to perform alongside the country's most prestigious orchestras including St. Louis, Columbus and Pittsburgh garnering great reviews. Nelly has performed on NBC's The Voice, The American Music Awards, ABC's Greatest Hits and served as a judge on CW's The Next. The music mogul has also left his mark in other aspects of the industry, introducing his hugely successful women's clothing line, Apple Bottoms, men's clothing line, Vokal, Pimp Juice energy drink and is part owner of the Charlotte Bobcats. In 2005, he made his big screen debut in the Adam Sandler and Chris Rock hit remake, The Longest Yard and in starred in Reach Me with Sylvester Stone 2014. Nelly joined the cast of the #1-rated BET sitcom The Real Husbands of Hollywood in 2013 and just announced the second season of his own show, Nellyville. Nelly also has strong philanthropic ties with Make a Wish, Face Forward and in 2003, he and his late sister Jackie Donahue diagnosed with leukemia, hosted the largest African American bone marrow drive to date. Currently he is the only rapper/music artist to own his own college, EI University, which provides education surrounding the music industry while Nelly himself provides scholarships. ADD IN SOCIALS

Assuming you have exhausted all your options to borrow money, and have decided to finally release the cash from your vehicle, the next thing to do is make sure your loan will not cost you an arm and a leg. Here are some tips on how to find the most competitive logbook loan deal.
Use Comparison Websites
There's a good reason comparison websites exist – they give you easy access to the most competitive loans in the market without ever having to leave your home. While these websites certainly do earn a commission for every successful deal they close on your behalf, there's a bigger chance for you to get the best rates through them as compared to applying directly.
Another advantage with using comparison websites is that you can easily find an online logbook loan that is tailored to meet your needs. You don't need to visit every lender's brick or mortar store or even their official website. You just have to key in how much you need and the comparison site will do the work for you.
Check the Company's Reputation
Even if a comparison website already found a lender for you, you may want to be extra cautious by checking the company's reputation. There are a lot of unbiased review sites out there where you can gain valuable insights from other borrowers. Most of them are very helpful and would warn others about the companies to avoid.
Study the Loan's Terms
Once you have the right lender in mind, it's wise to check the terms very carefully. While the APR could be the most important factor in your loan, your decision should not be based solely on it. You may want to consider the duration of the loan, the late payment fees, and early repayment fees. While every borrower thinks they will never default, it's hard to tell what may happen in the future, so you may actually be thankful for considering lower late payment charges.
Borrow Only What You Need
Bigger loans take longer to pay off, and the longer the loan stands, the more you'll pay in interest. There's also the risk of spending the money elsewhere if you borrow more than what you really need.
Even if you think you've got a reasonable offer in front of you, it would not hurt to negotiate a bit further. While there's no guarantee you'll be given a lower interest rate, many reputable lenders go out of their way to make repayments easy for you, such as allowing early repayments or giving grace periods.
Be Realistic
Lastly, it's important to remember what you can afford. We will not lie about this part. Logbook loans are expensive, and there's always the danger to lose your car if you fail to hold on to your end of the bargain. If things are already tough as it is, always consider what you can afford to spend in repayments and set your loan period based on that.
The challenge with buying a car isn't about finding the right model as it is about knowing how to pay for it. When it comes to paying for your new ride, there are plenty of options available to you. Choosing the right payment method is important, so weigh your options well and take time to think it all through.
Here are some of the more popular ways to pay for your car.
Cash Payment
Buying a car with cash is one of, if not the most cost-effective, ways to pay for a new car. Paying with cash keeps you from having to worry about monthly instalments.
Personal Loans
Taking out a personal loan from a bank or other similar establishments allow you to spread the cost of your vehicle over a period of time. This payment method allows you to own your new car off the bat, but getting approved for a personal loan can be difficult if you have a bad credit rating.
Hire Purchase
This payment method requires you to make an initial deposit of around 10% of the total cost, then a series of monthly instalments spread over an agreed period. Unlike with personal loans, the car isn't yours until the final payment is made.
Car Leasing
Think of car leasing as long-term rental. With this method, you make fixed monthly payments to use the car until the lease expires. There are two main types of car leasing: Personal Contract Hire, or PCH, and Personal Contract Purchase, or PCP. With PCH, you'll never own the car, whereas with PCP, you have the option to make a balloon payment that essentially transfers ownership of the vehicle to you.
Other Payment Methods
Credit Card Payment
Using your credit card to pay for your car, whether partially or in full, gives you added protection on the full purchase cost. That is, as long as you pay a minimum of £100 via credit card, and you meet all of your monthly card payments.
Peer-To-Peer Loan
This is similar to personal loans but instead of borrowing money from a bank, you get the loan from friends and family, or from individuals through websites such as Zopa. While peer-to-peer loans don't go through traditional financial institutions, you still need to have a good credit score.

New Delhi, Jan 8: Lashing out at Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal over his fresh attack on the Modi government, BJP today accused him of taking one unconstitutional step after another and asked him to be "ready to go to jail" in the defamation case filed by Finance Minister Arun Jaitley.
The Kejriwal government has been a "complete failure" and the chief minister has been resorting to levelling politically -motivated charges against BJP leaders to "hide" its failures and "protect" his principal secretary who is facing corruption charges, the party alleged.
"Kejriwal and his associates should be prepared to go to jail. His government has taken a number of unconstitutional decisions to hide its failures and corruption," BJP national secretary Shrikant Sharma said.
The APP government was making these "motivated" attacks to scare the central government and other institutions, he alleged.
"It is a government led by a person (Modi) born in a poor family who is determined to root out corruption. Kejriwal is notorious for levelling baseless charges," he said.
The Delhi chief minister should read the Constitution and stop taking unconstitutional decisions, he said, adding the city government was spending huge amount of public money on publicity campaign instead of using it for people's welfare.
"Its publicity budget is many times more than the previous governments," Sharma claimed.
BJP's charge came after a defiant Kejriwal said the Commission of Inquiry constituted by the Delhi government would continue its probe into alleged irregularities in DDCA even after it was declared illegal by the Home Ministry.

Last night, VMware released Fusion 4.1. You can update your installation by selecting "Check for Updates…" from the title bar. You can also go straight to the download here. As always, here's the What's New section from the release notes:
Smart Full Screen
Full screen mode provides better productivity and consistency with Mac OS X Lion than previous versions.
The Lion full-screen button is used in virtual machine windows.
The Lion full-screen keyboard shortcut (Cmd-Control-F) is now supported in addition to Cmd-Control-Return.
Like other full-screen Lion applications, a VMware Fusion virtual machine moves to a new space when all displays are connected to the virtual machine.
Switching to Full Screen mode on a secondary display uses the whole display but does not create a new space, which enables you to work in other Mac applications while the virtual machine makes full use of the secondary display.
The VMware Fusion menu bar and toolbar are now accessible from Full Screen mode. A short delay in showing the menu allows access the top of the virtual machine screen, particularly when running Mac OS X Lion in a virtual machine.
A redesigned, compact minibar that you can drag for quick access to common actions without leaving Full Screen mode.
Automatic virtual machine power on
Virtual machines can now be powered on automatically when VMware Fusion starts. You can override this setting by holding Shift when VMware Fusion starts. This feature was removed in VMware Fusion 4 but is now available in VMware Fusion 4.1 in the General settings for every virtual machine.
Improved animations
Improved animations for full screen mode, unity mode, library and snapshots.
Fast screen resizing and improved startup time
Faster screen resizing (Microsoft Hotfix 2522761 recommended), faster transitions into Unity and Full Screen modes, and improved startup time with Windows 7 virtual machines.
Improved Mac OS X Lion guest operating system support
Improved Mac OS X Lion virtual machine support including smoother mouse movements and support for File Vault 2 when using Mac OS X 10.7.2 or later. Upated VMware Tools disable sleep on older versions of Mac OS X virtual machines.
Improved graphics performance
Improved graphics performance and correctness for Internet Explorer 9 and Solidworks 2012 and improved graphics performance when using Mac OS X 10.7.2.
VMware Fusion 4.1 also resolves the following issues:
An intermittent problem when plugging in a new USB device that resulted in error 4.
Improved support for resizing NTFS formatted disks.
An intermittent issue connecting USB devices attached via a Thunderbolt display.
An intermittent issue installing Mac OS X Lion from physical media.
Improved compatibility of shared folders for many applications.
An issue installing VMware Tools on Ubuntu 11.10 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.7.
A graphics rendering issue on some Mac Pro systems with very large amounts of memory
A graphics rendering issue specific to some non-English languages.
An intermittent problem when using the migration assistant on Mac OS X 10.7.2.
Spurious activation messages when using Boot Camp virtual machines on some systems.

UST Sabercut Saw
This revolutionary hand-operated chain saw cuts and clears in both directions, so every stroke eats through whatever you need cut. Its self-cleaning cutting teeth and custom carrying case make this a must for anyone spending time outdoors hiking, camping, or backpacking.
The SaberCut saw is a lightweight, strong, versatile and low profile hand saw that is ideal for the survivor but easy to use by anyone. The SaberCut saw is designed to make it possible for you to cut through the hardest wood. Unlike other premium outdoor saws, the SaberCut saw offers you a flexible blade for cutting from a variety of angles and in places where you have little clearance. The 24-inch flexible blade is designed to ensure a smooth, fast action. Unlike a standard chain saw blade which only cuts in one direction, the patented SaberCut blade cuts in both directions resulting in more efficient and less strenuous cutting. In addition, the cutting teeth are self-cleaning and require little maintenance beyond standard care and occasional sharpening. When sharpening is needed, you can use a standard chain saw blade sharpener (1/8").
The durable SaberCut saw handles prevent the chain from twisting while you cut. This allows you to get a straight cut directly across the grain. To make it easier for you to carry the SaberCut saw we created a flexible sheath made of durable ballistic nylon fabric. Featuring a quick clip buckle and a belt attachment loop, the case holds the saw firmly in place and within easy reach.
You can use the SaberCut saw to cut down your Christmas tree at a tree farm, prune branches in your back yard, or cut shelter materials in an emergency. You can use it for gathering downed limbs for your campfire, and for building shelter. Use it to clear mountain bike or ATV trails or when off-roading. Tip: You can cut high limbs off a tree, just attach a lanyard or light rope to each handle and toss one of the ropes up and over the limb. You will never regret owning the SaberCut saw.
Specifications: Black oxide coated steel 24" / 61cm blade and handle clips Nylon Wrist straps and sheath 5.5" x 4" x 1" / 14cm x 10.2cm x 2.5cm (saw inside case) Weighs 6oz / 170.1g (saw and case)

Decked out in white T-shirts, red bandanas and jeans, members of the Evergreen High Cougar Pride Marching Band — with the help of a handful of musicians from other area schools — stepped through Evergreen in rhythmic unison in Saturday's Rodeo Parade.
It has been at least a dozen years since the marching band participated in the procession, which sported 93 entries this year from businesses, nonprofits, schools and politicians. The annual parade wound its way through downtown Evergreen to cheers from thousands of sun-splashed spectators.

The Jeffco commissioners inched closer to approving short-term vacation rentals June 14, directing staff to initiate the long process of changing zoning regulations.
A former financial adviser turned radio talk-show host and public speaker told an Evergreen audience that Americans are facing the collapse of their currency, confiscation of their IRA accounts, hyperinflationary depression, and worldwide rejection of the U.S. dollar, among other things.
It will be, basically, "the end of the world as we know it," said John Michael Chambers, who is now based in Clearwater, Fla., but lived in Grand Junction and Ouray for eight years.
The Jeffco Open Space Division is taking steps to protect the forest as well as the neighboring subdivisions from a severe wildfire near Flying J Ranch on Highway 73 between Conifer and Evergreen.
The $30,000 project involves cutting trees and creating a 40-foot-wide clear-cut along the power line on the eastern boundary. The work started June 1 and will continue through August or later.
A crew of about six has been deployed to remove two large patches of very dense lodgepole pine, called "doghair pine," that are infected with mistletoe.
The Evergreen Metro District will be opening hydrants and flushing water mains the last two weeks of June and through July in the Hiwan Hills and lower El Pinal area to clean out normal harmless small particles of iron and manganese. No road closures are expected as a result, said Garry Jeffrey, water plant manager.
The particles occur in the water naturally and over time can build up in the pipes and the water tanks. The district hired a dive team in May to go underwater and vacuum and inspect the district's 10 water tanks.
A request to take action on a proposal to build a new training building with realistic fire capability evolved into a lengthy debate between firefighters and members of the fire district board on June 14.
A training building was discussed in detail for the first time in April 2010, and the topic was revisited on April 12 of this year. It was added to the June 14 board meeting agenda shortly after the meeting started at 7 p.m.
Board members Jeff DeDisse, Charlie Simons, Charles Dykeman and George Kling were present. Dave Christensen was absent.
Former Elk Creek fire chief Bill Dolan, who has been linked to a variety of scandals during his 13 years with the district, now stands accused of making a fraudulent disability claim.
The Fire and Police Pension Association of Colorado will conduct a hearing in August to determine whether Dolan has improperly taken almost $44,000 in disability payments.
If Dolan is found to have lied to the FPPA, he could be required to repay the benefits, which he was granted for an injury sustained while working for North Metro Fire Rescue.
Couple opens, shares can of worms
Jeffco Public Schools community superintendent Holly Anderson resigned last month, and the district has hired a successor for the high-level job.
Dan Cohan, a former high school principal who was serving as the schools' executive director for the same region, which includes the Columbine, Chatfield, Dakota Ridge, Evergreen and Conifer areas, is already working in the position, Superintendent Cindy Stevenson said.

TC-Sounds Automotive
Of the three arenas of audio driver products, auto-sound is where pretenders are separated. While "SPL drag racing" and other extreme examples dominate news in car audio many times, fact is, if you can make a woofer survive, much less impress fans in this market, you are ready for anything.
We impress a lot of fans in the rough and tumble world of mobile audio in other words. Here's where you learn how to make a driver which can absorb untold amounts of power, and survive heat, cold and vibration as well. You might not really need a woofer designed as as well as a TCSounds, but it never hurts to have something made better than that "necessary"?
Much more driver news coming from our USA and Asian offices soon.

Financial Bailout
The democrats and president elect seem to be most in favor of the massive bailout of the big three auto companies - being bound to the unions - The taxpayer will pay a frighteningly high burden to very temporarily sustain the auto companies. The billions of dollars poured into auto companies from tax payers does nothing to address competitiveness and the root causes of the trouble facing the economy. The ingenuity and inventiveness of engineers and American labor ought to have free reign. Cars made in the East are produced from essentially slave labor. Eastern cars makers are pumping out high quality cars for cheap. There is little chance for American auto companies to stay competitive with the slave-labor produced cars from the Asia. To compete I would put those in the the American prison system into automotive factories to exploit our own free labor. American auto workers would maintain their positions, taking more specialized jobs to bodly compete with a higher product.
1 comment:
On the one hand, I think the bailout is essential if we want to see auto companies in America, specifically in Michigan. When they suffer, we suffer in Michigan, and our economy is terrible. On the other hand, you're precisely right that the root of the problem is prodigal living. I have a friend who I visit often when I come to michigan, but I am astounded at what they buy. This year, I found a new washer & dryer, a new car, a new giant plasma TV & sound system, new video game things, etc. All at a time when their father almost was losing his job. I wonder how much they have saved for the future?ReplyDelete
I would guess that Michigan is one of the leaders in this prodigal living that goes beyond their means. There is no entitlement, whether you have a union or not. In this new economy you might not be able to have a house and a cottage, snowmobiles, jetskis, 2 cars and a truck anymore. Credit cards are not free money. Somehow, our view of life and finances needs to change. Some situations call for borrowing, no doubt about it. Student loans are investments in the future. House & car loans also, for these big purchases of necessities. But TVs, video game systems, speakers, extra cars, appliances etc? We must live within our means. "You might not always get what you want when you want it."

New Sheffield Chamber of Commerce president Stephen Williams has called for "action not words" from the city region to help boost the local economy.
Mr Williams, a property and relocation solicitor for Lupton Fawcett Lee and Priestley, was elected at the Chamber's 156th annual general meeting at the Holiday Inn Royal Victoria Hotel.
He takes over from Jon Stewart, a director at Siemens Metals Technologies, who has been Chamber president for the last 12 months.
Mr Williams said: "My mantra for the coming year is that to enhance the regional economy we need action not words. This applies to everyone we deal with from the city council, Local Enterprise Partnership, politicians, Government, the business community as well as the Chambers of Commerce.
"Now is the time to deliver growth, not just discuss what we hope to do to achieve it. The Sheffield Chamber should have a higher profile than we've had before. We are now at a stage where we can be more proactive and drive forward activities which will enhance the environment for business growth.''
Sheffield-born Mr Williams grew up in a terraced house in the Hillsborough area. His father Derrick played professional football for Sheffield Wednesday and Sheffield United during the War years.
David Thurkettle, director at PwC, becomes senior vice-president, with Jillian Thomas managing director of Future Life Wealth Management joining the Chamber board as director and junior-vice president. Jillian will become the second ever female President of the Chamber in 2015.
Simon Bladen, audit manager at chartered accountants Hawsons, was appointed as a Chamber director and honorary treasurer.
Meanwhile, 12 city business leaders were elected to the Chamber Council at the AGM including Alan Easter (Arkom Creative Technology), Martin Gorman (Natwest Bank), Rob Moore (Taylor & Emmet), Andrew Fowlds (LF Logistics (UK) Ltd), Peter Newsam (UHY Wingfield Slater), Phil Mulchinock (Swindell & Pearson Ltd), Dan Bates (Sheffield Theatres Trust), Robert Earl (Bull Information Systems ), Kay Couldwell (Good Travel Management), Darren Pearce (Meadowhall Centre), Tracy Viner (The Cathedral Archer Project) and Matt Jackson (UK Workspace).

Vanessa has also appreciated the university's smaller class sizes, which has enabled her to form close friendships with other vet students in her year
"I've learned a lot about safe practice, which is about being aware of your surroundings and understanding the body language of the animals you're working with," says Vanessa.
"Horses fold their ears back when they're feeling aggressive or nervous, which is a good indication that they may not like what you're doing to them. A dog who wags its tail is not always going to be friendly; dogs who are nervous or aggressive wag their tails too."
Vanessa, an international student from Australia, is now in her fifth and final year at Massey University in Palmerston North.
She says one of the advantages of studying at Massey is that the campus has a large animal teaching unit, an equine hospital and a small animal teaching hospital nearby. Most city campuses wouldn't have space to have everything so close, especially facilities for large animal work.
I really like studying in New Zealand. We're very well looked after as vet students, and the vet school is very hands-on.
We go out to work in vet clinics during our final year of study, and I've enjoyed getting that real-life experience.

SNOWBOARDER has to be forgiven a poor effort in Group company at Salisbury last time but comes out best at the weights. He has every chance on his earlier win at Newmarket and may have the edge on Saeed Bin Suroor's duo. Tamarkuz finished last on his belated reappearance so Ehtedaam may prove best of that pair as he scored over track and trip in August. Grey Mirage made a promising comeback at Lingfield though he looks up against it on today's terms while Stand My Ground remains badly out of sorts.
Ehtedaam (USA) 5-2fav (9-10) Dwelt, held up towards rear, headway towards outside over 1f out, stayed on inside final furlong, never going pace to reach leaders, 6th of 15, 3 1/2l behind Graphic (8-13) at Kempton 1m hcp (2) pol in Sep.
Grey Mirage 6-1 (8-11) Led, hard driven when strongly challenged over 1f out, headed inside final furlong, kept on, 3rd of 6, 3/4l behind Set The Trend (9-5) at Lingfield 7f cond Stakes (4) sft in Sep.
Maverik 14-1 (8-11) Prominent, chased leader over 5f out, ridden to lead briefly 2f out, weakened quickly approaching final furlong, 13th of 15, 8l behind Graphic (8-13) at Kempton 1m hcp (2) pol in Sep.
Shamir 25-1 (9-2) Towards rear, headway over 1f out, weakened inside final furlong, 9th of 13, 7l behind Ehtedaam (9-10) at Kempton 1m hcp 0-95 (3) pol in Aug.
Stand My Ground (IRE) 12-1 (9-5) Raced stand side in touch in rear, weakened over 1f out, last of 9, 25l behind Ascription (9-1) at Doncaster 1m hcp 0-110 (2) gs in Sep.
Snowboarder (USA) 3-1 (8-7) Tracked leaders in 5th, went 4th 5f out, pushed along over 3f out, weakened 2f out, behind and eased final furlong, last of 6, 22l behind Afsare (9-0) at Salisbury 1m Grp 3 (1) gd in Aug.
Tamarkuz (USA) 7-1 (9-2) Mid-division, lost place 4f out, behind and eased 3f out, tailed off, last of 17, well behind Brownsea Brink (8-6) at Newmarket 1m hcp 0-100 (2) gd in Sep.

How secure is your cash with Royal & SunAlliance? Are the company's future returns going to sorely disappoint? Could it even be the next Equitable Life? These are the questions vexing the insurer's one million pension and endowment holders after a dramatic warning from one of the country's biggest financial advisers.
This week Hargreaves Lansdown issued a warning headed: "Is it Equitable Life Round Two?" It told investors to halt any further monthly or annual payments into their policies unless there is a significant contractual penalty for stopping.
It also told investors to obtain surrender or transfer values (statements of the policy's worth) for endowments and pensions they have with RSA. "If there are no significant transfer penalties, then seriously consider moving to an alternative company," said Hargreaves Lansdown head of pensions, Tom McPhail.
But why should RSA be causing such concern? This week the company was fined £1.35m for failings related to pensions mis-selling, but that is a drop in the ocean compared to the size of the company. What worries Hargreaves is the poor prospects for policyholders now that RSA has largely shifted out of equities and into gilts and bonds in a bid to shore up its financial position. RSA has two with-profits funds, and in one, the £10bn Sun Alliance & London fund, the proportion invested in shares has dropped to just 17% for pension policyholders and 27% for endowment holders. This compares to Standard Life, which has two-thirds of its assets invested in shares.
If the stockmarket recovers, then Hargreaves' thinking is that RSA policyholders will not enjoy the upturn. Instead, they will trundle along with the returns very similar to those earned by leaving the money on deposit.
RSA shuts its pension and endowment division to new business this month, and announced 1,200 job cuts. But it plans to carry on taking monthly contributions from pensions and endowments already set up.
An RSA spokesman said: "We do not believe there is any reason for policyholders to cash in their policies just because we do not accept new business. Our commitment to existing policyholders has not wavered, and the RSA group will ensure that our life company has the support it needs to provide customers with the high quality service and financial security they expect."
But concern about RSA is not only being expressed by Hargreaves Lansdown. Another large financial adviser, Chartwell Investment Management, is taking a similar line. It has written to clients in the last few days, advising them to pull out of RSA unless their policy is close to maturity or is burdened with heavy exit penalties.
Dennehy Weller, another firm of financial advisers we contacted, also said it had "black-listed" RSA as an insurer. In January this year Jobs & Money warned readers about impending problems at the company, which, like Equitable Life, has had to reserve heavily to provide for guaranteed annuities.
The cost of the guarantees, which have become highly attractive as interest rates have dropped, is more than £1bn - or 10% of the SA&L fund's assets.
While RSA is not about to collapse, Ned Cazalet, the best-known insurance analyst in the City, told Jobs & Money that it is beset with problems. "It is riddled with pension policies that have guaranteed annuity rates (Gars) and 10-year endowments with a high guaranteed content. These are commitments it must honour," he said.
"In fact, I would say that the proportionate size of its Gars problem was greater than Equitable Life at the end of 2000. Combined with a lack of any orphan assets [funds set aside to meet liabilities that have never materialised], the prospect of bonuses for policyholders in the Sun Alliance & London fund are slim."
But Donna Bradshaw at Fiona Price & Company adds: "There is a fine line between recommending a change as good advice and churning investments. You have to take fees and other costs into account and also have a clear strategy. You need to look at individual needs and in some cases, hanging in could be better than getting out."

Interview to Fico Molina - Entrevista al Caricaturista Fico Molina - Caricaturas Fico Molina

Exposición de Caricaturas
Seen with Other Eyes (an interview in a local newspaper ) One of the few caricaturists around the Canary Islands who has an international projection, Jorge Molina (Monkey) is a Peruvian artist attracted by the magic of Lanzarote. A native of Arequipa, with his portfolio and his pastels under his arm, he's spent 20 years wandering through the islands, alternating between Lanzarote and Ibiza. In Peru and Germany he worked as a newspaper cartoonist, capturing the features of his subjects with rapid outlines, projecting his drawing beyond and beneath the skin of his subjects to sketch the secret personality with speedy subcutaneous strokes. "Every man," says this lover of the instant photo booth, "has his authentic personality drawn on his face: characteristic features that make him an individual and unique, a special creature on Noah's Arc." This caricaturist sums it up the way wine was made before, stomping the grapes to get the essence. "Persons without a definite personality," says Jorge Molina, "it's difficult to synthesize in a few strokes because there's nothing in them to sum up: their life experiences don't show up, it seems as if they haven't really lived. They're part of what's called the human herd, the faceless mass that shows no particular personality." "But human fauna," according to Molina, "is replete with people who are crying out for a portrait drawn between the reality and the histrionics. For example, the two most caricaturizable Canarian politicians are Ramon Olarte, with that Saharan visage, and Manuel Hermoso, with that broad brow and prominent nostrils. Saavedra is more difficult because he is the image of indefinition… And I say it because a caricaturist has to be a psychologist and a translator who can quickly define the personality of his subject at first glance." "People who are difficult to draw, it's because they don't show their personality.
But in Spain there is quite a quantity of caricaturizable personalities: Alvarez Cascos, Aznar, Borrell, with his elegant equine profile. Pujol, of course, Cristina Almeida, Anguita, Felipe González, with those bags under his eyes and that hound dog look; prince Felipe, with his swan's neck… and so on… the list could go on and on." "Children, for example don't have a in them caricature because there isn't a developed character that can be translated en four quick strokes: their's is a caricature in waiting…" declares Jorge Molina. This greatly accomplished Peruvian caricaturist, who has his own Website on the Internet, explains: "A person who is anodyne lacks caricaturizable motifs because there is nothing in them to sum up. At bottom, making a caricature is definitely like making a psychoanalysis on paper, although one shouldn't press too hard. I always try to maintain myself on a line just at the limit between joshing and jeering, far from cruelty: in other words a critical representation must not involve offense or vengeance." Molina sums up, saying, "Just as there are persons who were born to be caricaturized, and are amused to recognize themselves as if they were seeing themselves in a mirror. There are others who fear caricature just as they fear fire, and it's painful for them to see themselves as the object of mockery. That is an erroneous concept of caricature, which does not deal with mockery, but rather consists of the portrayal of a person in a more or less exact way, but exaggerated. An artist enjoys portraying the subject's personality, as if it's a game of riddles, trying to win by gaining insight into the subject's interior world." (article in Diario de Ibiza, 22 August, 1983)
JORGE AND CAMILA – ART IN THE STREET: At the present moment I'm sitting all alone, pensively sighing. It seems to me that there must be other men, in other countries, pensively sighing. Looking beyond their own self-portraits. I can see them in Germany, Italy, France, Holland, Sweden, England, Luxembourg, Austria, Finland, recalling the moment and the stroke and the instant in which Jorge Molina drew their portraits on any of the summer nights in San Antonio. It is quite an agreeable portrait, and Jorge Molina and Camila, his muse, had a great deal to do with that happy coincidence.

Good afternoon. I am Chester L. W. Stephens, your dutiful doggie host, and you've tuned into The Daily Bone.
My practical minded associate Joseph (Joey dog) Stephens and I had a discussion about this. We came up with a few problems. First, considering the number of things humans buy online, the skies would soon be filled with millions of these drones. Imagine the noise they would make! Imagine the terror and confusion battalions of drones would cause for unsuspecting birds everywhere. We also wonder if these drones will be affected by bad weather, which we have a lot of here in Western New York. Just think about what would happen if a big storm suddenly rolled in from Lake Ontario and mixed up those millions of drones. What a mess! I don't think I would ever want to go outside again. What if they got stuck in the trees? What if they smash through the windows, or into cars while they're driving, or kids on their bikes? If there are enough of them, they might cause their own kind of climate change by blocking out the sun. Oh no! This is way too frightening for us doggies. We're going to go hide under the bed now. And that's a memo.

Belfast food tour awarded five stars for quality
Taste & Tour NI's Belfast Food Tour has become the region's first to be awarded a five-star rating by Tourism NI.
So far this year, the company's four-hour venture through Belfast has already attracted more than 2,000 visitors.
Belfast Food Tour was given the accreditation under the Tourism NI grading scheme designed to provide visitors with information on the quality of the region's tourist attractions.
To achieve a star rating, experiences are subject to an unannounced mystery assessment and are marked across six categories.
Tourism Northern Ireland chief executive John McGrillen said: "Food and drink experiences have become increasingly important to tourism as they offer destinations an opportunity to celebrate indigenous foods.
"Within the four-hour walking Belfast Food Tour, visitors have over 20 opportunities to experience and sample our local produce, and are involved in talks and demonstrations from local artisans and producers, encouraging sales and repeat usage."
Caroline Wilson, founder of Belfast Food Tour said: "Whilst we started with only a few locals, customers are now coming from all over the world as well as a lot of local businesses looking for a new experience. It's wonderful to witness the interest in Northern Ireland produce continue to grow.
"As the first Tourism NI quality assessed five-star food tour in Northern Ireland, it really shows us that we are not only getting things right, but we are up there with the best attractions here."

OTTAWA (Reuters) - The decision by General Motors to close down its Oshawa truck assembly plant is an act of betrayal as GM had promised to make a new line of vehicles there, a senior union official said on Tuesday.
GM Chief Executive Officer Rick Wagoner announced on Tuesday that the plant would shut down in 2009 as part of cost-cutting measures. Around 2,600 jobs will be lost.
The Canadian Auto Workers union reached a three-year contract deal with GM in mid-May, agreeing to a wage freeze. GM said the Oshawa plant would start producing hybrid versions of two of its pick-up trucks.
"They committed to products in this plant behind us and as of today, they've pulled that product out from underneath us. It's nothing short of betrayal," said Chris Buckley, president of the CAW branch at the Oshawa plant.
"General Motors is going to produce our truck in Mexico and the United States. That's absolutely disgusting and I absolutely feel betrayed today," he told the Canadian Broadcasting Corp.
Buckley said the union would seek to persuade GM to reverse the decision, but added he was not optimistic.
"As of May 16 we've been working under the terms of the new three-year collective agreement and in my opinion they've bargained in bad faith and that's up to us to address as a union," he said.
Buckley also attacked the federal government, saying it had done nothing to help offset the impact of a robust Canadian dollar which was making life hard for manufacturers.

Ever feel like you've lost your way? We can learn a lot from the stories in the Bible about people who couldn't clearly see the path in front of them.We can take comfort in knowing that God is prepared to bear our pain. Like we heard today in the story of Noah and the story of the blind man, there will be times when we don't fully understand the path before us. Jesus assures us that he is prepared to take us by the hand and lead us into the light.
Get together for some prayerful time with your family tonight and play "Here I Am, Lord" to set the tone. Listen to the lyrics. Allow Jesus to take your hand and lead you and your family into merciful prayer. Ask for His guidance and comfort when you cannot see, transforming your darkness into light.
Thank you for joining us today! I continue to pray for you and your family every day.

Re: Thomas Victor Copley Ramsden1890+
Hi graham.
This is a long shot but have your ramsdens any connection to holywell and flintshire north wales. I have a james fletcher ramsden who was born in oldham around 1839 who married a frances davies and lived in north wales before living in neston cheshire. I think his father may have been called william ramsden a surveyor and mining engineer who lived in holywell north wales in 1851. James fletcher ramsdens children included charles,john woodrow ramsden ada maria and also martha ramsden. Martha went on to marry in north wales in 1910 to william bennett and they moved to audenshaw and had children including florence, william, thomas and frank bennett. Is there any connection do u think?????

13 Beautiful Films That Make Us Want to Travel
Whether you're looking for travel inspiration for your next adventure or simply aiming to take a journey of the mind, we've rounded up our very favorite moments in cinema to get the ball rolling. Get carried away by the likes of Cary Grant sunbathing on the Riviera and Russell Crowe throwing caution and stock portfolio to the wind in favor of tending to a vineyard. These impeccably crafted films are so rife with wanderlust-worthy locations and festooned vacation looks that we're wont to steal their every move on our next trip. Keep scrolling for a list of our favorites.
Alfred Hitchcock notoriously lured Cary Grant out of retirement with the one-two punch of shooting on location in the French Riviera and co-starring with Grace Kelly. To Catch a Thief is arguably the chicest film ever made. The plot features masquerade balls, jewel heists, and the word's most infamous cat burglar, John "The Cat" Robie (Grant), bent on clearing his name for a crime he didn't commit. Kelly's iconic wardrobe alone is enough to inspire an escape.
To Catch a Thief ( $20 ) ($14)
As sociopaths go, Tom Ripley remains among the most cringingly charismatic performances in celluloid history. Directed by Anthony Minghella, The Talented Mr. Ripley gives us the gift of Gwyneth Paltrow in espadrilles, Jude Law on Vespas, and Matt Damon scatting jazz. In all its 1950s nostalgia, it follows a millionaire playboy and a Manhattan charlatan as they revel about the Amalfi Coast. Identity theft has never been so stylish, and did we mention Cate Blanchett slays in her turn as a flighty heiress?
The Talented Mr. Ripley ( $15 ) ($10)
Directed by Ridley Scott, A Good Year is the ultimate quit-your-day-job fantasy romp. Russell Crowe stars a motorcycle-riding investment broker who uproots his big city life and relocates to France after inheriting the vineyard in Provence where he spent his youth. Crowe's arch from wound-up shark to freewheeling Frenchman, together with a swoony romance with Marion Cotillard, is enough to inspire us to pack our bags and briefcases for an extended sojourn.
A Good Year ( $15 ) ($7)
The true story of Frank Abagnale Jr., Catch Me If You Can stars Leonardo DiCaprio as the real-life teen con artist who successfully passed millions of dollars in fake checks while posing as a Pan Am pilot, legal prosecutor, and doctor. Directed by Steven Spielberg, the film features Tom Hanks as FBI agent Carl Hanratty, Christopher Walken (who has a memorable metaphor to offer involving mice and butter) as Frank Abagnale Sr., and a stellar original score from John Williams. It's an instant classic for any jet-setter.
Catch Me If You Can ( $22 ) ($15)
Yes, we are fully advocating a Leo double feature night to satisfy your wanderlust. Danny Boyle's adaptation of Alex Garland's stunning novel The Beach follows a trio of young backpackers as they discover a clandestine island paradise off the coast of Thailand. The film deals with the fundamental themes of humanity, love, violence, and the true cost of utopia. The screenplay maintains much of Garland's narrative prose, making for a beautiful adaptation. The novel itself will take you even further down the rabbit hole.
Anyone who has ever traveled with siblings will find empathy and solace in Wes Anderson's tale of three brothers adrift in India on a quest to bring their estranged mother home after their father's death. Wry, witty, and sublimely heartfelt, The Darjeeling Limited brings Anderson's signature aesthetic across vibrant Indian landscapes. A soundtrack filled with needle drops from The Stones to The Kinks; Angelica Houston in an ashram (looking even more goddess-like than usual); and Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody, and Jason Schwartzman bickering to the point of being maced in the face make this one of our fave bonding rituals to date.
The Darjeeling Limited ( $40 ) ($22)
Based on historical events surrounding the train-robbing Hole in the Wall Gang, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid stars the dreamiest of all onscreen pairs: Paul Newman and Robert Redford. On the run after a robbery gone south, Butch is all brains where Sundance is all skill. A classic tale of daring friendship set against the Wild West frontier, it will inspire you to pack some hats and head out to the wilderness on a vision quest—or go on the lam in Bolivia (Butch's idea).
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid ( $15 ) ($5)
Easy Rider is the quintessential counterculture road trip movie. Directed by and starring Dennis Hopper alongside Peter Fonda and Jack Nicholson, the 1969 classic is a scenic biker flick that trails from Los Angeles to New Orleans with a truly killer soundtrack. If you're looking to free your mind via the open road and a carefully curated mixtape, herein lies your deliverance.
Easy Rider ( $20 ) ($15)
The film to first mix feminism and Brad Pitt's abdominals is at the top of our must list for travel inspiration. Ridley Scott's masterful 1991 tale of two best friends on the run, Thelma & Louise features Susan Sarandon and Gena Davis as small-town Arkansas BFFs on the run in a '66 Thunderbird after defending their honor. Fair warning: This film may inspire your next girls' night in to relocate to Mexico.
Thelma & Louise ( $20 ) ($9)
We're unclear as to what part of Woody Allen's Vicky Cristina Barcelona makes us pine after the coastal European city most. The Spanish guitar in the streets, fiery Latin lovers, and exquisite Gaudí set pieces are among the film's finest trappings. Scored with Allen's signature whimsical tunes and featuring painstakingly brilliant turns from an ensemble cast of Rebecca Hall, Scarlett Johansson, Javier Bardem, and Penélope Cruz, it is not to be missed. Also, we dare you to watch it and not take your next summer holiday to Spain.
Vicky Cristina Barcelona ( $20 ) ($9)
"I had a farm in Africa" is the opening line of this epic, true saga starring Meryl Streep and Robert Redford. Set in 20th-century colonial Kenya and directed by Sydney Pollack, the Academy Award–winning film follows the romance between a Danish baroness and a free-spirited big-game hunter. Redford's Dennis can't be tamed, not even by the most dynamic, passionate, and independent woman in the world. With its sweeping landscapes and boldly drawn real-life characters, Out of Africa is the ultimate love affair for those wild at heart.
Out of Africa ( $20 ) ($14)
Shot in Hawaii, The Descendants follows the story of a land baron (played by George Clooney) as he struggles to find his way back into the good graces of his two estranged daughters after a family tragedy. Peppered with rich Hawaiian history and Alexander Payne's signature blend of comedy and drama, the film walks an enchanting line of laugh-out-loud moments and raw, devastating tension. Masterfully crafted and beautifully composed, it features a breakout performance from Shailene Woodley and a crazy-endearing Clooney in a cornucopia of Hawaiian-print shirts.
The Descendants ( $40 ) ($10)
A must-see for any foodie, the uproariously funny The Trip blurs reality and fiction as comedians Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon play heightened versions of themselves on a tasting tour of the finest restaurants in North England. The movie experience is akin to eavesdropping on the funniest dinner repartée imaginable. One viewing is not enough. It has us coming back for seconds.

Makeup, makeup, MAKEUP. The possibilities are literally endless. It's actually INSANE what people can do with makeup. I wish that I was one of those genius beauty bloggers, buuuut I'm not. I'm just a normal girl, doing normal makeup, watching fantastic YouTubes tryin' to figure this ish out, because it is a struggle sometimes.
Don't get me wrong, I LOVE doing my makeup. I believe a good cat-eye and some stand-out fake eyelashes can take your night to another level. The thing that I struggle with most is the covering of the skin that I've been given! I watch these girls and I'm like okay but HOW did you get a complexion like that? And how do you not get oily? And how are your pores non-existent?? (Sidenote: a skin-care blog featuring an excellent line to combat pores is coming soon and it's amazing). But anyways. HOW??? HOW!!!!!
Unfortunately I still haven't found their secrets out. BUT, I have found some products that help a girl like me with oily, acne-prone, dark-spotted, semi-noticeable pores type skin get through the day feeling covered up and fresh faced.
I'm focussing mostly today on my concealers from Maybelline. I've been using Age Rewind for nearly a year now, and it never disappoints. Recently I've been turned onto their new Superstay Better Skin concealer and I am now an even stronger believer that Maybelline just gets it. (Have you tried their $6 lipsticks???? My girl Emily from Stiletto Beats is doing a giveaway on her blog of her favorite Maybelline Nude lipsticks and I WANT THEM ALL. Go enter!)
Anyways. I'm going to stop rambling and let you just watch the VIDEO below where I reveal what my Maybelline Concealer Hack is. It's my first video in 8 freaking months soooo I'm super rusty (not like I was this crazy good youtuber before…in fact my boyfriend went through all of my videos last night and had a grand old time lololol) BUT it's one of my goals to get better. SO I'm pretty damn proud of the editing I figured out all on my own last night (after 4 freaking hours)…if you follow me on snapchat then you saw the STRUGGLES I went through haha.
Don't miss your chance to get your dad something amazing from Parabellum, with free monograming when you use code 'blonde.'!!! Look at what I got for my dad here! (Seriously thinking about just keeping it because I love it so much…don't tell him!).

Clarion Collection Hotel Hammer, a charming hotel with informal atmosphere, is located in the centre of Lillehammer. Within a few minutes walk you will find the main sights in Lillehammer such as the Lillehammer Art Museum and Maihaugen. Shops, cafes and restaurants are also accessible nearby.
The hotel offers free waffles in the afternoon and a light buffet in the evening. Coffee, tea and fruit are available all day. For relaxation purposes there is also a sauna available for the hotel guests.Distances:
Hotel rooms in Scandinavia are generally furnished with twin beds, which can be moved together to form a double bed or placed separately (some hotels have double beds though). Unless otherwise specified all rooms have private bathroom facilities, which are often equipped with a shower instead of a bath. Please note that single rooms are generally smaller than doubles. Purpose-built triple or family rooms are likewise unusual in Scandinavian hotels. Whilst it is possible for 3 persons to share a room, this will normally be formed by a double room with an extra bed. As a result space may be restricted.
Unless otherwise clearly specified a standard room/cabin is included in the tour price.

A Taste of Dining
Written by Trish Lauer
On a sunny June afternoon, a handful of Future Residents gathered in the Village Square and chatted pleasantly. A few moments later, the reason they were all there began: they were all guests for a Garden Spot Village kitchen demonstration.
The purpose of the event was to provide a unique experience for those who will be moving to GSV, giving them a closer look at the goings-on in the dining areas, while answering any questions they may have. Starting off at Refresh Coffee Shop, Christy Turner and Vicki George of Central Kitchen introduced themselves and began the tour. After answering some questions, everyone was given the best part of any food demo: samples. Handed out in fun-sized Starbucks cups, guests were able to enjoy a cold Strawberries & Crème Frappuccino topped with a dollop of whipped cream – perfect for the warmer weather of the day.
From Refresh, the tour moved on to the Terrace Dining Room, where, on Sundays, the count can get as high as more than 100 people. After heading to the kitchen and meeting Executive Chef Mike Pezzillo, guests were given homemade cookies & cream ice cream to try while also being able to see the inner workings of where a large portion of the food served at GSV gets made. From there, the group went through the kitchen to the Harvest Table. Christy shed some light on the healthy, Mindful choices that are offered, as well as the various functions that make getting a meal easier, such as online ordering and food delivery options.
While Christy spoke, Mike made a flavorful stir-fry that included bok choy, red peppers, and yellow squash. As everyone happily tried their final sample, they had friendly conversations. "This is a great idea," said one Future Resident, "Mike does a terrific job." Another commented on how they're looking forward to moving in and enjoying more meals, especially with the recent addition of the aeroponic greenhouse and its fresh produce.
The kitchen demonstration was a fun insight into where and how meals are prepared each day, but it was also about fellowship – from both the commonality of being Future Residents and the natural bond that forms over sharing delicious food.

Six years ago, Arroz Con Mango was a back-yard party with a neighborhood DJ put on by college kids to raise money for the fight against cancer. Today the event, organized by the Junior League Against Cancer, has graduated to a heavyweight fundraiser featuring performers like Latin pop diva Soraya and local fusion faves DJ Le Spam & the Spam Allstars. Unlike celebs who book charity gigs in the name of publicity, Soraya takes this event's cause to heart. She has battled breast cancer for three years and lost her mom to the disease. The event doesn't stop with music, though. A fashion show featuring Michael Shyka's designs should up the chic factor. Maybe that's what got Deco Drive personality Belkys Nerey to co-host? --By Humberto Guida
Arroz Con Mango takes place at 7:00 p.m. at 1232 NE 2nd Ave. Admission is $50. Call 305-978-8143.

Love and death, passion and deliverance, spirituality and toughness. These traits, along with La Virgen de La Guadalupe, prison tattoos, marijuana, and hairnets, are central tenets of low-rider culture, on display tonight at the "Chrome Show" at Diaspora Vibe Gallery (139 NE 39th St.). To aficionados, a cherry condition late-Sixties cruiser is more than just a car; it is a thumping hydraulic status symbol that reasserts one's place next to Jesus. Tricked-out bicycles, chrome-plated and rigged with hi-fi, get you closer to God. Works by Chicano airbrush artists are exhibited with Jody McDonald performing live. Bring some mota. Wear a wife-beater. The night is just one event in Diaspora's month-long Big Bang Hip-Hop Month, a celebration of contemporary urban American culture. The exhibit opens at 8:00 p.m. Admission is free. Call 305-573-7675. -- Juan Carlos Rodriguez

Way back in 1977, a Big Brother-type cultural group called the International Council of Museums created International Museum Day, a holiday boasting a different yearly theme. (Museums and Friends is 2003's.) The aim is "to raise public awareness of the vital role that museums play in society." You're already quite familiar with the role they play in your world. So what's so great about this manufactured observance? Free (or two-for-one) admission, baby! Get an early start today and you can hit the Lowe, the Bass, MAM, and even MoCA. Voila! You've saved 20-odd bucks. That's more to spend in the gift shops. -- Nina Korman

text: Just finished of a 6.65lb bone in pork shoulder. Started it at 10:30AM. The process was going fine till 5:30PM. 30" Masterbuild Electric Smoker was set at 225 degrees. Meat temp was rising every hour like it should. When 5:30PM hit the meat temp was at 166 degrees. That is where it stayed till I removed it at 8:30PM. I checked the electronic thermometers (actually used 2 and they both read the same within a degree or two of each other). Brought the roast in and checked it with my wife's old standby meat thermometer and it read in the 166 degrees. Put roast in oven at 350 for and hour and it came up to 200 degrees. I know there is/can be a temp stall period, but I have never had one last 3hrs. The roast was put in at room temp. Is this normal or did I miss something?? Bob

Italy vs Netherlands 09/07/2014 Free International Soccer Preview
Netherlands vs Italy
Thursday 4th September 2014
The Line: Italy Draw Netherlands See the Latest Odds
TV: setanta sports; rai international
What should be a new beginning for the Italians under former Juventus coach Antonio Conte who led Juventus to a hat trick of titles before quitting in July. Italy will have some experience in the form of Pirlo, De Rossi, Buffon, Cassano and Motta but will be looking to new guns Cerci, Immobile, Verrati and Balotelli to finally deliver on their potential. This is a nice squad with a good balance of players and it will be interesting to see how Conte does managing them. Conte was very successful with Juventus but success in Europe did elude him. Can Italy move on from a disastrous World Cup where they made yet another Group Exit?
The Netherlands had a terrific World Cup finishing third and only being eliminated on penalties against Argentina in the semi final in a game that they should have won over the 120 minutes. Robin Van Persie is named in the squad but may not play due to soreness in his knee. Robben is absent through injury but more or less the same squad of players is available to Gus Hiddink as the squad that went to the World Cup. Daley Blind announced himself to the international scene at the World Cup and earned a big money move to Manchester United where he will link up with former Netherlands coach Louis Van Gaal, he should be one of the key attacking players along with Afellay on the other wing. Although it will be interesting to see how Hiddink tinkers with the Van Gaal tactics to suit his own agenda.
This should be an entertaining game and while I am not big on betting on International friendlies I am going to take both teams to score here as I see this as being more of an exhibition with both managers sure to empty their benches to have a look at potential first teamers. This generally leads to more open games and more goals. Follow me on twitter @antonpippo
