This is a fun pendant and earring set that actually started out as something else entirely.... but I love how it has turned out. This is my first attempt at soldering something other than a jump ring, and I am so pleased with the result- I want to be out with the torch and pick all day now.
However.... the story of Little fish, little fish actually begins as a vision of Art Nouveau inspired vinery. After I had soldered the pieces together I was looking and thinking and thinking some more, and it reminded me not so much of leaves and vines but of summer days I spent with my dad fishing at our cabin way way far away, in the middle of the great forested north (northern Saskatchewan). My dad passed away when I was young, and he was often so busy when we were in the city, but the days at the lake were such fun. So my summer-theme is more a summer pass-time and a memory of my family- special for me, fun to have made, and lovely to wear.
Oh- the stuff.... sterling silver with copper Swarovsky crystals, peridot chips and citrines. The larger stones are citrine- these are sooo lovely and delicious..... and very summer with the warm greens.
Thanks for looking!
The clasp for the necklace is in the front so the cored is very smooth on the back of the neck.
Detail of those delicious cirtines....

The National Gallery has just placed a large number of British war propaganda posters online - see http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Ca...nited_Kingdom)
Some examples:
Not just posters though - other artwork too:
More about this in the Guardian: http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2012/ju...aganda-gallery
Some of the "economy & recycling" measures were really just morale boosters, giving the public a way to feel like they were doing something to contribute to the war effort. I can't remember if bones were one of these or they really needed them, but the used tyre drive in the US harvested many more tyres than they could ever use. They none-the-less continued with it because it boosted morale so much.

Oceanic Coral Farm: Reconstructing and Preserving Aquatic Ecosystems – Sketchbook Friday
This week's Sketchbook Friday project tackles the serious question of how the worlds oceanic ecosystem might be restored and protected. In an ideal world the best solution would be to stop polluting the waters in the first place, yet as history repeats itself I'm personally sceptical of the environment ever being seriously considered a valuable asset relative to our hunger for fossil fuels and cheap disposable products.With this in mind let's explore my brainstorms. Initially my idea was to design a floating platform, one that might perhaps be customizable with varying stack-able sections and areas.
What are the benefits of a floating platform?
- Separation of organics from polluted water
- Surface level management and preservation
- Categorization of sub-ecosystems
- Easy access for scientific study
- Selective control over priority fauna and sea life
- Close proximity to affected areas
- Easily transported to new locations
With these benefits in mind my strategy would be to create multiple sections catering to the overall conservation effort. I would also recommend that the most essential conservation tasks be managed parallel to the best onboard platform space and technology available. These individual sections might be dedicated to coral farming, endangered species rehabilitation and even resupplying vital nutrients back to the sea bed.
If for example Coral A, an essential nutritional source to a large population of sea life becomes endangered, then a platform might be dedicated specifically to the re-population of coral A, providing a stable artificial environment.
Mass Scale Oceanic Reconstruction
Another point I thought might of course be interesting to consider would be scalability. Considering the sheer size of the world's oceanic ecosystem, it's highly improbable that the Earths entire sea bed can be sustained. Instead the focus would be more towards supplementing key regions via a web of platforms. One example of this notion of decentralised networking is public transportation, think of these platforms as stations catering to a specific region of sea floor. An added benefit being the improved ability to map the sea floor, study pollution levels and count populations of local and migrating species.
Sub-Surface Aquatic Coral Farming
Following on from my ideas for an above sea level conservation platform, I decided why not also brainstorm some below surface architecture systems too.
- Less complex construction
- Weight more evenly distributed under water
- Greater protection from storms and rough weather
- Greater sea life interaction as a semi-artificial habitat
- Greater potential exposure to water contaminates
- Diving or hauling equipment necessary for access
With these considerations in mind I would argue that an ideal platform would combine both above and below surface segments. Perhaps water might even be pumped from the ocean feeding organics at the top level while trickling down nutrients to the ocean below. In principle this idea is nothing new, water pumps in aquariums often do a similar job filtering bacteria.
Structural design of the farms
One obvious idea is to perhaps focus outer layers on providing structural integrity while inner layers directly interact the oceanic ecology. Various layers might use mesh materials suitable for specific sea life and types of coral, thus simulating natural habitats more effectively. Organic life might also pass through these floating vessels rejuvenating the overall health almost like a life support system for dying areas of the ocean.
What are your thoughts on this idea? As always Sketchbook Friday is simply about sharing ideas, projects that receive more shares and comments receive ongoing future updates progressing the idea further into more technical and realistic plans and campaigns. I look forward to feedback and hope to see you next week for edition #08 of my weekly blog series.
This edition is part of my weekly blog series where I conduct thought experiments and generate new concept ideas ranging from innovative new tech to creative design kits. Ideas that receive the most shares will evolve form my original sketches to prototypes and potentially crowdfunding campaigns.

If you are an AU student, staff, or faculty member you may borrow books at AU using another valid form of government issued photo ID (e.g., driver's license, passport, etc). At AU we do our best to protect your identity and account security which is why we require photo ID.
Please note: Other libraries in the Consortium may not accept other photo IDs as a substitute. Please contact those other libraries before you visit them if you find yourself in this situation.

New England Patriots Pro Bowl offensive lineman Logan Mankins does not plan to attend voluntary organized team activities without a new contract, his agent told Tom E. Curran of Comcast Sports Net on Monday.
Mankins' agent, Frank Bauer, also told Curran that no progress was being made at this time on a new deal.
Mankins is a restricted free agent who was tendered at the highest level, at $3.26 million.
Mankins, who signed a five-year contract as a rookie in 2005, was scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent this year. But his situation was altered by the change to an uncapped environment, as players with four and five years of experience reverted to restricted free agent status.
Mankins wasn't expected to attend organized team activities since they are voluntary and he has been staying away from voluntary workouts.
A key checkpoint with Mankins will be if he skips the team's mandatory minicamp June 15-17.

Bank of America Not Likely Preparing for a Chapter 11, But Risks Inhabit
10.21.2011 Original publish date
02.13.2016 update: stock chart broken, unable to repair. Archived report under Financial News Editorial
Bank of America Not Likely Preparing for a Chapter 11, But Risks Inhabit
original article written by Net Advisor™
EDITORIAL: Consumer Impact of Dodd-Frank Government Regulation
After reading the tweet and referenced Reuters blog regarding the question, "Is Bank of America preparing for a Chapter 11, I would have to argue that Bank of America is not planning to file Chapter 11.
Here is my take on what is happening:
Bank of America's asset moves have more to do with Obama and Dodd-Frank regulation limiting or restricting banks and investment banks from proprietary trading and investing their own capital into certain funds. Further regulation on banks under Obama is making it more difficult for banks to make money, and the costs of compliance complicated this problem.
Coincidentally, both Chris Dodd (R) and Barney Frank (D) were instrumental to the Housing Crash and had long and big financial ties to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. In January 2011, analysis warned that banks would raise fees on consumers to offset Obama's massive regulations, which again reduces the ability for banks to make money.
ABC News Video: 01-06-2011
As much as we all dislike bank fees, let alone higher banks fees, we can thank the Obama Administration for putting regulations in place that will cost consumers more money.
Warning Before Dodd-Frank Legislation
Before Dodd-Frank was enacted (2010) I talked about how the negative impact this would have on banks and investment banks. I also talked about how the volatility in the stock market would increase from reduced liquidity in the markets. We have seen this happen where the stock market has gone through huge price swings since, and no one dares to bother to look at what helped this to occur.
"Next if the government does ban proprietary ("prop") trading, that will also reduce liquidity to the financial markets. And if memory is short lived, when liquidity is dramatically reduced in financial markets, we can see more extreme movements (volatility) like we had on the May 6th Flash Crash."
— Net Advisor's 05-20-2010 Report on risk of Dodd-Frank legislation & the impact on financial markets
[Further examples at the bottom of this article.]
Bank of America's Troubles
Bank of America still has financial issues. As of the date of this article, Bank of American's stock has fallen about -88% since about October 1, 2007. The bank's problems were magnified by their purchase of CountryWide Mortage and further magnified the risk by buying Merrill Lynch. CountryWide and Merrill Lynch were on my top 5 companies in financial trouble posted in 2007 – long before most people became aware of what was really happening to the housing market or to the economy.
My other laundry list of problem financial companies can be found here – NetAdvisor's 2007 Yahoo post).
A Trillion Dollar Nightmare
Currently, Bank of America is still sitting on over $1 Trillion in bad loans, and is being sued by pretty much 'everyone.' Bank of America still has the greatest risk of all the major banks in my analysis. This does not mean they are getting ready for Chapter 11 however.
Why Bank of America is Not Going to File Chapter 11
Any bankruptcy by Bank of America would have a catastrophic impact on global financial markets and would risk collapsing other major banks and investment banks, not to mention put the U.S. economy in a severe recession unlike what we have seen since the Great Depression. The financial impact would make the Lehman Brother's bankruptcy look like an unnoticed blimp in the market.
In such event were to occur, the U.S. government (regardless of what anyone thought, or argued) would take over and nationalize the bank. The common stock would become worthless, the bonds could arguably lose 50%+ of their value overnight and we could see massive layoffs. The bank is already laying off 30,000 people over the next three years.
Government Says Banks 'No Longer Too Big to Fail?'
Government Solution: Let's Make Banks Bigger?
The Bush and Obama Administration complained about "too big to fail," yet after the collapse of Bear Sterns, Lehman, AIG, Washington Mutual, Wachovia, and arguably Citigroup, surviving banks became even BIGGER.
These banks didn't bigger on their own. I would argue that Government facilitated, encouraged and financed the bailouts and assisted the takeover to avoid further collapse of our banking system in 2008 and 2009.
In the major banking/ lending/ financial arena:
- Bank of America acquired Countrywide and Merrill Lynch;
- JP Morgan Chase acquired Bear Sterns and Washington Mutual;
- Wells Fargo acquired Wachovia;
- The Federal Government forced a takeover of AIG, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and effectively acquired 34% of Citigroup;
- Lehman Brothers was left out to be the poster child of the financial collapse.
Many people probably have forgotten that CIT Group (which has nothing to do with Citigroup) filed for bankruptcy in 2009 – the 5th largest bankruptcy in U.S. history at that time. They have since restructured. So the banks we were told that were "too big to fail" just got even bigger and with no reservation of thought from government or anti-trust regulators.
The New FantasyLand: Washington DC
Result of Bush & Obama's Too Big to Fail? Government allowed and made the banks bigger than they were before. Some in Washington DC seem to think they they can write a bunch of words on a piece of paper (call it "legislative reform") and suddenly whatever they want comes true.
"Never again will the American taxpayer be held hostage by a bank that is too big to fail."
— Barack Obama (speech 01-21-2010) (PDF)
Never-mind that despite Obama's TV rhetoric the U.S. government – via the FDIC bailed-out and facilitated the takeover with taxpayer loan-loss guarantees to the acquirer of 157 banks just in 2010 alone.
The Washington thinking appears to be "too big to fail is bad" (but that is exactly what they created); and "too small to fail" is worse?"
Possible Scenario with Bank of America
What is a possible scenario is that Bank of America could send their biggest pain in their vault, CountryWide Mortgage to Chapter 11. This is not an immediate scenario, but a possible scenario. The financial impact would not likely be as severe as the whole bank going Chapter 11. The full impact on financial markets is not known however. But one thing is certain, any B of A bankruptcy or a major division thereof would likely have an impact on financial markets; especially if the bank did not warn the market of this possibility first, and had an approval stamp from the current Administration.

Back in November of 2011, the European Parliament adopted a resolution in favor of net neutrality on a global scale. The resolution stated the following:
[Click here for a PDF version of this document.]1. The TSA Violates the Fourth Amendment.
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is a prime example of trading liberty for so-called security. The latest viral TSA outrage occurred on June 18 when officers forced a wheelchair bound, 95-year-old leukemia sufferer to remove her adult diaper. The innocent elderly woman was detained by the TSA for a whopping 45 minutes.
The backlash over the Transportation Security Administration's (TSA) new invasive procedures has transcended left vs. right politics. Under the banner of security, American citizens are being subjected to virtual strip searches or intrusive full contact pat downs from armed government bureaucrats. These policies do more to humiliate us and pad the pockets of lobbyists than actually keep us safe.
I find it rather interesting to read about how President Obama and many of his Democratic cronies are desperately pushing for financial regulatory reform. It makes me wonder why such legislation has become such a pressing priority. After all, both President Obama, and many Democratic lawmakers have financially benefited from the likes of Wall Street's heavy hitting investment houses such as Goldman Sachs.
Just when you thought that the federal government couldn't possibly usurp more of our individual freedoms, their prerogative shifts to working to micromanage and control the nutrition of its constituents.
Florida's property insurance market is currently in disarray, the product of over-regulation that has hampered competition. With the imminent threat of hurricane season, the Florida state legislature is once again considering the issue of insurance reform; hopefully it will take the opportunity to revitalize Florida's fiscally vulnerable insurance market.
Democrats such as House Financial Services Chairman Barney Frank and Senate Banking Committee Chairman Christopher Dodd have continued to press for what they consider to be necessary financial reform.

Settled science rarely is. Except to those with a vested policy interest in the debate. True to form, a recent diatribe by Michael F. Jacobson of the Center for Science in the Public Interest acknowledges none of the widely available data that conflict with his passionate crusade against table salt. However, to a debate that has endured for decades, Jacobson does bring a modern twist:

Hey! It's theater season again! And just in time, the NEA and Americans for the Arts both released reports finding that participation in theater is down—by 9% in the musical theater category, and 12% for non-musical theater. Is anyone surprised? If you're inclined to do your part to reverse that trend, there's some good stuff opening this weekend:
Grim and Fischer, Wonderheads: I'm quite curious about this show, from mask/physical theater touring company the Wonderheads. Though Portland-based, they've been touring since 2009, which is why neither you nor I have heard of 'em. But based on photos, their masks are incredibly impressive, and this show—about a grandma who refuses to go when death comes for her—has picked up awards at fringe festivals across North America. That show runs tonight and tomorrow, and next week Thurs-Sat, at the IFCC in Interstate. Details here.
Sweet and Sad, Third Rail Rep: Last year, with That Hopey Changey Thing, Third Rail kicked off a four-year, four-play cycle about one progressive family living in upstate New York. The first play in the cycle was set in 2010; the second, Sweet and Sad, is set in 2011, on the 10th anniversary of September 11. I didn't see the first show in the cycle, but I love the idea of a cast returning to the same characters year after year. And it helps that the cast is top-notch: Maureen Porter, Bruce Burkhartsmeier, Isaac Lamb, Michael O'Connell, Rebecca Lingafelter, and Jacklyn Maddux are some of Portland's best. Tickets here.
Mistakes Were Made, Artists Rep: The second show of Artists Rep's season—after the great The Big Meal—is a one-man show about a tightly wound theater producer coping with the demands of putting a show together. So it's almost appropriate that Mistakes Were Made hit some snags early on. Namely, it's a one-man show, and a few weeks ago its lead actor, the wonderful Todd Van Voris, had to drop out, citing family troubles. Director Michael Mendelson stepped into the role, new Artistic Director Damaso Rodriguez took over as director, and opening was pushed back... until this weekend. Mendelson is a pro and I have no doubt he'll pull off the role, though I have to admit I'm disappointed that we won't get to see Van Voris in the role. (I kind of wish Van Voris played every role*.) Tickets here!
We've got plenty more theater listings right over here.
*While we're on the subject of my favorite Portland actors—did everybody know Tim True moved to LA? Tim True moved to LA.

text: Published on Thursday, May 8, 2014 The Burgess Boys by Elizabeth Strout When Heads Roll It's Not a Good Thing This contemporary novel begins with the back story of the Burgess family from a down-on-its-luck former mill town in Maine. The eldest son, Jim, and one of the younger twins, Bob have made lives for themselves in New York City. While Bob's bitter, unlovable twin, Susan stayed behind in Shirley Falls. The three live very different lives, are very different types of people, and have limited contact with one another until a bizarre incident calls them together in Shirley Falls. In the back story, the Burgess family suffered a tragic accident 50 years before, that mark them all. The accident was blamed on 4-year old Bob, who endured the ridicule and taunting of his siblings and school children thereafter. Nevertheless, kind-hearted Bob was his mother's favorite and makes an unimpressive life for himself in New York. Jim, the ambitious overachiever is admired, goes to Harvard, marries a wealthy woman, has kids, the nice home, prestigious job, and seems to have it all. Susan always the main target of her mother's criticism and has become a bitter, resentful adult whose husband left her to raise their odd and lonely son, Zach, who has now brought the reluctant family back together in Shirley Falls after pulling a stupid prank which is now being investigated as a hate crime. Thrown together, the family tensions surface and in the course of the tale, transform each of the characters in very different ways. It is the characters that make this novel so compelling. Each is well-defined, if not consistently likeable, certainly engaging. The author is so good at providing details that elevate the ordinary, she makes this tale of fiction feel like something that might well appear in the news. Lots to talk about if you're in a book discussion group.

In my other venues, so far user voting has fallen squarely on the "he's not tempted by this at all" side. Any disagreements out there?
I have to say it's almost a little insulting, when I have her trying so hard.
I think if she gave him back his sword he may - MAY - consider listening. Maybe?
Or he just wants to cut her head off.
I just can't help thinking any straight male would at least struggle a LITTLE bit, even knowing she's a liar, which he does.
And see, he's too much of a golden boy to cut her head off, even if he could and should. He'd go all Superman on her and "I can't kill you because you might redeem yourself."
I think I'm annoyed by his moral invulnerability.
Well, that last panel certainly looks like he's all out of patience, tempted or no.
He's probably just pissed that she's getting fingerprints all over his sword hilt.
SPOILERS DON'T READ SPOILERS No, Gwydion knows Achren far too well to fall for her tricks. I think if he could survive Oeth-Anoeth without giving in, he's probably just fine when it comes to simple interrogation.
*sigh* Yes, yes, Gwydion, the god among men, enters O-A in moral perfection and exits in even perfecter moral perfection.
I can't be the only one this irritates just a little bit. I hope they make him a little more...well, human, in the film.
Well, *I'm* certainly tempted. So there's that.
;) Then my work is done.
I just ran across this recently and can I say I'm absolutely delighted to find it?
As for his temptation... I think he's not tempted, but he's not unaffected. I always got the feeling in the books there *is* a mutual attraction, there is a connection there. He just knows, with absolute certainty, this isn't going anywhere good.
I always got the feeling he ends up believing in her redemption because he really wants to.
That's a good way to put it, I think. Certainly it would lend a welcome complexity to both their characters. I can imagine, were Achren not what she is, there being a certain mutual respect and attraction, and Gwydion is far more gracious to her later than he is in this scene. Perhaps a greater compassion and sympathy for her gained from his time unlocking the mysteries of the universe in Oeth-Anoeth? I smell the vague outlines of a fanfic in here somewhere...
I really like the idea he actually grows more sympathetic to her over the course of this experience. He had to understand her to break Spiral Castle's power, and in understanding her, softens.
Exactly this.

Volibear Build Guide by angelreborn
Not Updated For Current Season
This guide has not yet been updated for the current season. Please keep this in mind while reading. You can see the most recently updated guides on the browse guides page.
Thank You!
Your votes and comments encourage our guide authors to continue
creating helpful guides for the League of Legends community.
Volibear Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
First. yes i suck at making these so any comments or questions would help
Volibear should be played based around health items for his 2 main abilities. his passive and his W - Frezy. with this setup with a few changes i make to it depending on machups you should be able to tank and 1v1 most anyone in first half of game and do very well in second half.
Volibears Items
The Reason behind these items and alternate routes for them depending on your role and game.
(your boots are always based on who is carrying them/there most dominating type of champion/who your laning against)i.e. Merc for AP, Ninja Tabi for AD
There are three ways i build items on volibear the list above is the most current and what i have found most effective.
Warmogs/Boots/Frozen Mallet/Warmogs OR Sunfire cape/Banshi veil or Thornmail
Rushing my warmogs starting with the pendent to last in lane. the reason for this is your main attack W has a ratio of 20% of your life. you will not realize how strong this is untill you use it with any large amount of life. aswell your passive will heal for an additional 300+ life everytime it is active from your warmogs.
Frozen mallet? not ryleas? yes. your abilities cooldowns will stop you from using them alot and you will be auto attacking with your W's passive really fast and more often than your skills. it also grants you 700 life which again i cant stress how amazing this is with your passive and W.
After this point you may decide on your next few items based on your opponents. who is carrying them (check score) if an ad champ is pulling the team like crazy i grab a sunfire cape then a Thorn mail. if AP? i grab a banshies veil. if you are doing fine as is i suggest a sunfire cape then another Warmogs.
by the end of the game you will have 6k+ life (+ 2000 more life when your passive is active) and your W should close to 50% most champions.
Alternate item routes
boots/Philosopher's Stone/Heart of gold, than build into Shurelyas for CD-Regen-life/into a Warmogs of Frozen mallet, then finally into a Atmas
i also use this build without an atmas but its your choice.
Why not Atmas in your other setup?
i stopped using atmas because i was using my W more for the kill than the auto attack, and found i am more often the "tank" of each game. if you wish to use it i would suggest grabbing after warmogs and frozen mallet for the early W damage.
*Force of nature is also another nice item if need magic res due to your high health for regan. a must in some games (ap controlled)
*witts end is also a choice you can take if you feel u dont have the attack speed for team fights + ult. if you keep your stacks up on minions you should be fine though.
Volibears skills - R > W > E > Q
Passive - Chosen of the storm
When volibear is at critical life he heals for i think its 30% of his health at a very rapid rate. late game he heals 100+ health every .5 sec (roughly :P ) This has a 2 min cooldown and if you can only start fights when you have this ready. it catches them off guard as well as yourself sometimes
Rolling thunder (Q)
when active he runs faster for a few seconds, if targeting a enermy champion he gains more speed. when he reachs them he flips them over himself, i get this at level 3 and max last, using just to catch up to players
Frenzy (W)
Frenzys passive places a stack every time you attack (stacking up to 3 times) for each stack he gets increased attack speed, 8% per stack at level 1.
Frenzy has an activation attack with around 15 sec cool down that deals damage + 20% of your health with addidtion 1% bonus for each 1% health they are missing. (same type of effect as Garens ult if you have ever used him) this will pretty much finish off anyone with 25%-40% life once you have your warmogs or frozen Mallet.
i max this first for the increased attack speed and heavy dmg it does (your main source)
(use minions to keep your stacks up in a 1v1 if there moving away and back in. you cannot activate without 3 stacks)
Majestic Roar (E)
sends out a wave around you fearing all enemy minions and damaging and Slowing enemy champions. added damage off of AP which i do not use. i max this second using it to clear minion waves and slow running enemies.
Thunder Claws (R)
all of your attacks while active cause chain lightning to hit all near by enemy targets. level whenever possible. use in every team fight that you can and to clear minions waves (when it is needed) this also has an AP ratio but is not needed
Leave up your Q for chasing and ganks (when they run it will allow you to catch up fast to use your W to finish or continue the fight). after you fling them use your E right away to slow them down even more from running. since you are gaining attack speed from your W keep attacking untill they are around 25% which is when you will activate your W (it has a small range so keep the Q open and ready to finish them off)
i have been using flash and exhaust to keep further control over any opponents whether its lowering there damage or teleporting on them to land the finishing blow
Masteries and runes
i play a 0/23/7 mastery tree setup to be as tanky as i can be at the start while only stacking health items and staying in the fight as long as possible. just personal preference.
for runes i am using
armor pen Quints
Def and magic res with health
you can also sub in the health quints but i do not have them at the moment and find that the armor pen is working well with my W
your against a bear?!
if you are in lane agasint a Volibear a few things i have learnt from using him. do not rush him unless you have used up his Passive (120 sec cool down) unless you have heavy burst damage like garens ult to finish him off.
be carefull of his W's damage. if you look like your up in the fight it can almost half health you for the kill. around 15 sec cool down and HAS to have 3 stacks
ignite rapes his passive so keep it handy
Quick ending
so far i have not played volibear agasint another one who does aswell and for the most part i have a much better kill/death then any other i play. early to mid game with this setup you should be able to 1v1 most champs by keeping stacks up and saving your skills for when they run. in team fights remember to use your ult and E to hit them all which will be sure to score you double, triple, and up in kills in team fights. i play him as a tank and initioator but its up to you once you learn how to use him. there was more i wanted to add to this but its 6am and im tired so i hope i didnt miss anything major, thank you for reading (if you did) and i hope this helps someone! comment and let me know what i am missing
*be carefull of the ignite!

Now more accessible and student-friendly in this full-color seventh edition, Cultural Anthropology: A Perspective on the Human Condition explores how cultural creativity, human agency, and the material conditions of everyday life interact together to shape human cultural practices. It stresses contemporary applications and human narratives across cultures, focusing on how people bring meaning to the world and transform it through practical action. Offering solid coverage of traditional topics, the authors incorporate cutting-edge theory and explain complex ideas in accessible language. They pay special attention to issues of power and inequality in the contemporary world, including gender inequalities, racism, ethnic discrimination, nationalism, caste, and class.
Covering the material in fifteen concise chapters, Cultural Anthropology is ideal for introductory courses. It exposes students to alternative perspectives from non-anthropologists and indigenous peoples through "In Their Own Words" commentaries, and it provides ethnographic summaries of each society discussed at length in the text in "EthnoProfile" boxes. The text also features many pedagogical aids including key terms, a running glossary, chapter summaries, maps, and annotated suggestions for further reading. An Instructor's Manual and Computerized Test Bank and a Companion Website at www.oup.com/us/culturalanthro provide additional helpful resources, including a student guide with extensive study skill tips and chapter review tests.

Well, why not?
I recently blogged about how I had a sugar free March. I didn't find it difficult generally and lost a couple of pounds, even though I ate as much of everything else as I wanted. Mr S didn't do it as strictly as me but he also felt a lot healthier.
I noticed that my IBS symptoms improved massively, which was a big surprise. There are a lot of foods that I now avoid (cabbage, onions, milk products unless they are Lactofree, cauliflower and highly spiced food are some), but I had never considered that sugar might irritate my sensitive gut.
I have allowed myself some sweet stuff again in the past couple of weeks – mainly chocolate, which I love – and have had an upset tummy most days. It's hard to avoid the realisation that these two things are inextricably linked!
We ate half a Lindt Easter bunny between us last night and I feel awful today, so I am going to cut sugar right out of my diet starting now.
I now realise there is a whole area of research around sugar, candida and yeast infections which I intend to research. Perhaps that is the root cause of my IBS?
Speaking to a colleague today, he has also given up sugar and started to exercise and eat healthily as he was diagnosed with diabetes. A couple of months in, his blood sugar is normal, he no longer had diabetes and he has lost a stone! Living proof that a high sugar intake and a poor diet have massive health implications.
Sugar sneaks into many foods, even savoury. I bought some cup-a-soups on a whim recently as I had run out of home made for work and they are full of rubbish (plus they taste horrible). Sugar is the third ingredient! Whatever possessed me I don't know but I won't be buying them again. I will try to avoid refined sugar wherever possible.
I have told everyone that I don't want any more chocolate over Easter and we will have a fruit salad for dessert on Easter Sunday.
Has anyone else stopped eating sugar? How have you found it?

As soon as you start your quest to determine whether an electric scooter or a gasoline powered scooter will ideally suit your requirements, you will quickly become aware of the various differences concerning them. There are crucial dissimilarities that need to be considered previous to making a final choice on what style to buy. Just because your neighbor has a scooter that you really like doesn't mean a similar scooter will be best for you. Your desires and needs will not be the same as someone else's. You will have distinct reasons for buying a scooter and these reasons must be addressed if you expect to make a smart buying choice.Read More »

It`s the end of the summer, and you know what that means.
No, we`re not talking about getting the kids back in school or revving up for the World Series.
The end of summer means putting the swimsuit away! The hot, steamy days spent pulling that revealing suit over a body that might be, well, a little less than perfect, are all but over. We`ve gotten through another summer of sucking in our tummies and being self-conscious about that little ripple of fat around the middle.


text: Hi, my name is Ron and I'm from Chicago. I'm a computer science major and I work full time as a Help Desk tech. I just recently got the HTC EVO and have been taking the time to learn the little secrets of the Droid OS on it. I'm a bit of a prankster and in a previous incarnation I was a professional Troll on Yahoo Answers Religion and Spirituality board. I still troll occasionally but not like I use to. I'm here for some very serious business and don't intend to do or say anything demeaning or insulting to someone, but I hope you can forgive the occasional joke. I'm currently looking to develop some apps for the Droid OS in the near future. I may have to lean on a lot of people because I have no Java programming skills as of yet. My personal OS on my computer is Ubuntu Linux, but sometimes I have to use Windows since it's just easier to do some things on it. My only major grip with the HTC EVO is that you can't sync it with Linux. See you in the funny papers.

I remember a few months back as I was battling homesickness and loneliness, I thought that I am not really in need of a boyfriend. What I needed, to cope up with my depression, was a girl friend. Someone I can talk about make ups, dressing up, giggling about boys and other girly stuff.
Then, on my Nihonggo class, I met T, D, L and C. Instantly, I had 4 new girlfriends! But C had to fly back to China and live there for the next few months. We had no communication with her anymore.
I was looking onto our photos today and I just realize how different our personalities are but we get along well.
We were bonded by a foreign language we are all struggling to learn and master. The struggle is real but what's good about it, is the extended patience and understanding each and everyone gives to one another.
So, yes, I prayed for a girlfriend, God gave me three to take care of and let bloom.
PS: Lord, for a lifetime partner, I really, really need one. For sure, having one will be a challenge in itself. I look forward for a friend-turned-bestfriend-turned-boyfriend-turned-husband, I pray only for one. The waiting continues.

Apparition Trailer (2012)
"The horror begins." 21 July 2012 Drama 87 mins
We're in 1971, and the largest morbid symptom around is Ferdinand Marcos's play for greater political power, which occurs off-screen. But little of the outside world impinges on Adoration, a convent set in secluded woods outside Manila, which sees itself as a physical and spiritual sanctuary. We explore this closed world, riven by manias and secrets, through the eyes of Sister Lourdes, a newly arrived novice. She has hardly settled in before she learns that her activist brother is missing, presumed arrested... She finds ways to venture out to Manila, where a terrible fate awaits her. Apparition obviously reflects the fact that the Philippines is a predominantly Catholic nation, thanks to its years as a Spanish colony, but Sandoval is less interested in questions of faith than in the issue of good governance. Adoration's Mother Superior, Ruth, knows much more about what's going on in the outside world than she lets on. Is she a kind of Marcos, imposing her own kind of martial law?

One to watch
David Beckham
Some influential figures in the game reckon they've identified the next England manager in waiting. Anna Nolan has weighed in behind Goldenballs and now, the English edition of the Sun appears to be weighing behind Becks. It might be good for circulation and, certainly, would sell newspapers, but has everyone lost their mind? Here's hoping, anyway.
Word of the day
The expression for giggling teenage girls. Alas, it was a sad day for the 'bakvissie' community on Tuesday with the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo, who endured a miserable competition.
Bet of the day
Uruguay/Ghana both to score @ 11/10
While the Uruguay defence has been stingy, Ghana should provide a sterner test than South Korea, who finally broke the South Americans' resistance.

Unanswered: Data Gatherer problems
I'm using Oracle 9i. Using OEM, in Capacity Planner the Storage options are set as "Store historical data in repository". Under the "collection" tab there is a green light next to the target database so I would assume that data is being collected. However...
Under the analysis tab, if I try to view data it says there is none. Also, in my dbsnmp.log there is the error ODG-05793 (saying that the Capacity Planner can't connect to the historical database supplied).
I would have thought that if I'm storing historical data in the repository I wouldn't need an historical database.
The target database is mentioned in the TNSNames.ora, as is OEM. Is there something else I'm missing?
Thanks, as always, for any help.

For today's excursion to Wolf Haven, forty curious campers felt the excitement of seeing several wolves and wolf-dogs up close and personal. Wolf Haven sits just down the road from Schechter, and serves as a rehabilitation site for captive-born wolves, a restoration area for native plants, and a touring facility. After passing through the site's wolf cemetery, the kids walked down a trail through patches of wildflowers and Mima mounds. Next they got a tour through the enclosure areas and saw pairs of wolves, learning a few fun facts at each stop and watching a few of the animals being fed. The campers' favorite wolf was Shadow, a black grey-wolf who seemed almost as interested in the kids as they were in it. For the third year in a row, Schechter will be adopting a wolf, doing our part to keep this special sanctuary running.

The Bronx-N.Y. based retailer, which had been trading on the over-the-counter bulletin board, will continue to trade under the ticker symbol LHMS. In a separate development, Loehmann's also announced that it has completed the sale of its building in the Bronx and received $5 million in cash from the transaction. The company's corporate headquarters will continue to be located in the Bronx facility. OF NOTE: J.C. Penney Corp. extended, until Aug. 7, the expiration date of its offer to exchange various outstanding notes for new notes maturing in 2012 and bearing an interest rate of 9 percent. The offer was originally set to expire July 24.As of that date, an aggregate of $227 million of the outstanding notes were accepted and became irrevocable.EMPORIO REDO: Giorgio Armani has remodeled its six-year-old Emporio Armani storeat 601 Madison Avenue and is reopening it today. The store has 9,000 square feet, including 6,000 square feet and two floors of selling space. Giorgio Armani designed the remodeled store with Manhattan-based architectural firm Janson Goldstein, similar to the smaller Emporio location in SoHo that opened in April 2001. There's a dramatic entrance with an open atrium, a suspended staircase, and illuminated opaline plexiglas columns and wall panels in contrast to chocolate brown wenge walls. There is also a strip of Pietra Serena stone above the doors on the facade. TRADE TALKS CONTINUE: House and Senate lawmakers late Thursday were still locked in their second full day of talks over a trade bill that includes apparel duty breaks for Andean countries and enhanced breaks for the Caribbean Basin and sub-Saharan Africa. The main point of contention is what workers should qualify for federal assistance if they lose their jobs as a result of new trade concessions. Democrats have made a broadening of the Trade Adjustment Assistance program — which now applies to workers who lose their jobs as a result of NAFTA — a must-have item. On the other side of the aisle, Republicans want to pass the trade bill because it would give President Bush the Trade Promotion Authority he desires. Lawmakers are scrambling to resolve the House and Senate versions of the bill before they leave for their summer vacations next week.""

We started this walk from the centre of Wirksworth and walked over the top to Carsington then on to Brassington
We did this walk in January and we got a bit muddy, one reason was that a couple of the stiles were a little narrow for our dog to go through so we had to help her along a bit!
A pleasant walk that includes an up and over the hill section which is not too difficult.
Descend to Carsington Water and just walk a very small section round the edge of the reservoir before crossing the road and going to Hopton, past Hopton Hall and on to Carsinton where you can call at the Miners Arms pub if you wish.
Another up hill ascending up an old track through fields and over the top into Brassington.
After our lovely lunch at Ye Olde Gate we returned by a slightly different route that gently takes you up on to the High Peak Trail and brings you back down to Wirksworth.

This year is a race to the NIT imho, but it also builds for next year. I haven't ruled out NCAA but Uconn is a must-win and we have to pretty much run the B10 schedule now. With injuries and underachievers the B10 schedule doesn't look as tough as it once did. I think the only 2 assured teams in the NCAA are Wisc and MSU. Purdue is in unless they continue to collapse like the rest of the B10 teams seem to be doing this year.
Last night when Manny was getting a "rest" we saw what I think is the future of M basketball. With Manny out, they ran 100% of JB's offense which is basically a 4-out with the big at high post. When Vogrich was in with Stu, Novak, Morris, and Simms the floor spacing opened up. This is exactly what JB's offense is supposed to do.
Each game I see Morris I get more excited about him as PG and think that very soon he'll be starting and Stu will move to shooting guard. This is a winner because Morris is a much better PG and a bigger, more active defender. Stu is a spot-shooter than can drop 3's at will when he doesn't have to run point.
My only question is who will play the part of big next year. I think Simms is gone and Gumby is definetly out. Can we find a euro-style big that fits JB's system in the guys on the bench or that we are recruiting?

Stackable Event Bike Rack Barricades for Crowd Control
Event barriers which stack square to make storage and transport easier
- Stacks square in both directions
- Bolt-on, replaceable bases
- Enables compact storage of event barriers
- Wide base results in increased stability
First introduced by Blockader at the IAAM show in 1994, our square stacking bike rack barricade was designed to counter the weaknesses of other barriers which are now referred to as "economy" stackable frames.
Blockader's square stacking event barrier vs. "Economy" variations
- Uprights inserted into frame before welding
- Replaceable structural bases
- 43 pound standard weight
- Different hooks in inventory
- 24″ stable bases
- Spot-welded uprights can snap
- Welded, deformed bases are not replaceable
- 36 pound light weight
- Only one hook style available
- 18″ or 12″ bases are less stable
Stackable crowd control barriers are ideal for sports arenas and at sporting events or sites which need a bike rack barricade which is quick to deploy and easy to store. Bolt-on bases are easily replaced and various hooking options are available for increased flexibility.

Bird Watching - Koshi Tappu National Park
Bird Watching - Koshi Tappu National Park Reviews
2 reviews
Bird Watching - Nepal Apr 01, 2009
One of the finest bird watching park in Asia
is Koshi Tappu National Park. It stands today
as successful testimony of nature conservation
in South Asia. This is the first National Park
of Nepal established in 1976 to preserve a
unique eco system significantly valuable to
the whole world. The Park covering the
protected area of 932 Sq. Km. is situated in
the subtropical inner Terai lowlands of
southern central part of Nepal. It is on the
east and West Bank of the Sapta Koshi river in
eastern Nepal. The Park gained much wider
recognition in the world when UNESCO included
this area on the list of World Heritage Site
in 1984. It should also be emphasized that
only a very small part of the national park is
used for tourism.The great majority of the
land, particularly in the hills, remains
unvisited and therefore undisturbed.
There are bus services from Kathmandu to the
approach to the park. If you like heavy
rafting and have plenty of time it is best to
start rafting from Dolalghat (90km from
Kathmandu) on Bhotekoshi river to Koshi
barrage. There are also several direct
scheduled flight from Kathmandu to Birtnagar.
From Birtnagar(my homwtown and birthplace)
travel by bus or jeep to the park. It is
approx 70 kms away from Biratnagar airport.
Nepal has all three zones: tropical, temperate
and alpine. Hence, you will find wildlife of
every climate zones. We have more than 800
species of birds, almost 10% of world's bird
species.Kosi Tappu is one of the best places
in Nepal or probably Asia to view migratory
and native water fowls; waders and shore birds
during the winter months. Many species not
recorded elsewhere in the region have been
found here. Thousands of birds congregate here
in January, February and March before they
migrate north when the warm weather begins.
Around 441 species of birds (many of them see
nowhere else) have been recorded, including 20
duck species, 2 Ibis species, white tailed
stonechat, Striated Marsh warbler, 30 shore
Birds, 114 water birds and the endangered
swamp partridge and Bengal Florican. The Koshi
Barrage is an extremely important resting
place for many migratory birds, containing 87
winter and trans-Himalayan migratory species.
The Koshi river is home to 80 species of fish.
The endangered Gharial Crocodile and Gangetic
dolphin have been recorded in the river as
During winter, many of the migratory birds can
be seen on the Koshi Barrage and on the river
channel. Migration usually peaks around mid
march. Much wildlife visits these areas during
dusk and dawn. The clear skies allow for
beautiful sights of several Himalayan peaks
including Makalu (8463m), the world's fifth
highest peak.
