How does an active volcano shape the world around it? Peer into the crater of the Masaya Volcano to find out.
How would you prefer us to contact you?
By EmailBy Phone
The Masaya Volcano is persistently active - that is, it erupts constantly - but it does not spew out molten rock; instead, it releases a steady plume of gas.
When most people picture an active volcano, they probably don't imagine one like the Masaya in Nicaragua - they picture giant ash clouds and lava flows that wipe out forests and towns. But just as a violent eruption dramatically alters the landscape around it, the Masaya's plume powerfully shapes its environment. We know, for example, that crops often fail downwind of the volcano. But what else does this constant flow of gases do to the world around it? By joining this expedition, you'll help researchers find out.
Come explore Nicaragua's geology and incredibly diverse wildlife. You'll set up high-tech scientific instruments in and around the Masaya's crater (with safety equipment on, of course). You'll also hike through the forest to record information on pollinating insects and to collect plant, water, and soil samples, stopping to take in the spectacular views along the way. You'll return with the unforgettable experience of being part of a field research team and the confidence that you've added to what we know about how volcanoes shape life for the plants, animals, and people around them.
7+ days - See all dates
The volcano belches out harmful gases like sulfur dioxide and heavy metals like lead—it's critical to know where they enter the food chain.
Join the first research study to systematically analyze how the Masaya Volcano affects its environment.
Working alongside the researchers, you'll trace the path and ultimate fate of the gases emitted by the volcano, starting from the volcano's magma and moving through the gas plume into the soil, water, and ultimately, plants and animals. Knowledge of how volcanic pollutants travel and where they end up can help local people live more harmoniously with the Masaya by cultivating more acid-tolerant crops, for example, and developing safer evacuation plans.
Masaya Volcano releases harmful gases - it's critical to know where they enter the food chain.
The volcano can also give us insight into the global impact of persistently active volcanoes. To address human-induced climate change, we need a better understanding of natural processes like volcanic eruptions. Although eruptions increase the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and contribute to the greenhouse effect, the impact of volcanoes is much smaller than that of burning of fossil fuels by humans. Volcanic eruptions also have a cooling effect, because the sulfur-rich gases they propel into the atmosphere form clouds that reflect solar radiation back into space. Through this project, we hope to learn more about how volcanoes like the Masaya fit into this very complex picture.
Nicaragua, the largest Central American country, has diverse and wildlife-rich landscapes, including plenty of volcanoes and tropical forests. The Masaya Volcano, located in the Volcán Masaya National Park, looms 600 meters (1,970 feet) above sea level and is a beautiful place to hike and explore. You can sometimes see red-hot magma around the impressive crater.
The scenery around Masaya is spectacular, with recent lava flows (from about 200 years ago) studding the surface, and diverse animals and plants to spot. A colony of parrots lives inside the crater—apparently with no problems from the volcano's contaminants—and bats inhabit one of the lava tunnels nearby. Turtles and crocodiles populate lakes Masaya and Managua. At the park's free visitor center, you can learn more about the park's native flora and fauna and visit the gift shop to purchase souvenirs or cold drinks. The center also has restrooms and a picnic area.
This is a summary:
Share the unforgettable experience of being part of a field research team. You'll start your fieldwork days with an early breakfast and then spend the day hiking on and around the volcano to set up and read instruments and collect data on plants and pollinators. You'll have a chance to try your hand at every task. After the team heads back to the hotel in the early evening, you can shower and relax, and then you'll meet up again for dinner and perhaps an informal talk from one of the researchers.
Throughout the expedition, the researchers will explain their passions for volcanology and biology and put the project into context through talks and seminars on a wide range of topics, from evolution to plate tectonics and the geology of the solar system. They'll update you on research results and help you interpret them in the context of both local issues and global climate change. All of this background material will make your time in the field as meaningful as possible.
You'll also gain insight into the culture of Nicaragua. You'll stay in the small town of Masaya and will have time to venture out to restaurants and the local market to shop for souvenirs. Those who join a two-week team will have one full day to explore the area's natural and cultural attractions.
Note: Field conditions and research needs can lead to changes in the itinerary and activities. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding.
Share the unforgettable experience of being part of a field research team.
Help the research team to take gravity surveys and measure gas emissions.
Why Volcanoes? They can have a huge impact on their immediate environment, and far beyond. Dr. Rymer has studied Askja Volcano in Iceland: "In 1875, Askja erupted explosively, hurling ash as far as Scotland and Scandinavia and coated a large portion of Iceland in tephra (pumice). The crater left by this eruption is 200m deep and 5km wide."
The team (both volunteers and staff) will stay at the Hotel Regis in the town of Masaya, a simple, comfortable establishment with shared rooms and bathrooms. The hotel offers laundry service and has a pleasant courtyard for lounging in after a day of fieldwork. It's a short walk to the local supermarket and shops.
Your team will share most meals in the hotel's courtyard. You'll start the day with a typical Central American breakfast—beans, rice, eggs, fruit, bread, and, of course, delicious local coffee. You'll take packed lunches into the field and in the evening share hearty dinners at local restaurants or back at the hotel.

I got mine today. Thank you Nickilee for my stuffed stocking. I love it and everything in it. As soon as I can figure out how to post a pic from my phone since I can't get to my gimp right now I will Sarah "Life is a gift.. So have fun with it" | ||||
Sue and I always always got a present on Christmas Eve, My dad would sit in his recliner and ask our mom to get a "present for these girls" and mom would go into the hidey hole and find one for each of us. So Sue opened her stocking just a few minutes ago. We decided that we would buy stock in the tape companies well before Christmas next year. Angela, your stocking is so beautiful and what a lovely sentiment you enclosed in your card. A very nice Christmas pin is decorating the cuff of the sock. Just lovely. We will open gifts after I get through the tape on my box. LOLThis message has been edited. Last edited by: patty j, | ||||

I think that it was 9:00 Eastern. I busted into my box and found a beautiful stocking from muggo muggo! I loved the surprise of your identity and all of the Maine goodies. The shirt is a perfect fit and I will share all of the edibles with my family. The fabric postcards are great too! So much fun and I appreciate everything. It is even better since we have met in person--three times, right? Merry Christmas to all! I am hoping to feel better tomorrow, fever has hit tonight. | ||||

Thanks, so much. | ||||

Good Night Everyone, Think I'll go to bed so Santa doesn't by pass my house tonight. Merry Christmas. | ||||
You are very welcome, Sister Sue! I am so glad you like it! I really enjoy this swap - creating the stockings and collecting all the little gifties! Since I am not a crazy quilter, but I do like to cross-stitch, I have tried to find a way to incorporate my stitching into the stockings. And, since my stitching teacher adapted quilt blocks for us to stitch it was a natural combination! Oh! A quilting friend of mine gave me the idea about having the kitty tangled in the tree garland. | ||||
My SSSS was CQwannabee and a wonderful SSSS she was. Thank you so much Jody for the beautiful CQ stocking, I just love it. I also received pink and green pillowcases that go vey well with my bedroom, a thread catcher with a needle holder, two beautiful asian fabrics and a bundle of fabrics for my CQ habit. Thank you again Jody it was a wonderful package. Julie | ||||
Fleur 55, so glad you like your package. I'm so glad you showed your fur babies, I hope they liked their little gift from Santa, we can't leave them out can we? The stuff in the red tin is tea, but I'm sure you knew that. The name is on the bottom of the tin. A new tea shop opened in the mall and the man said this was a mild breakfast type tea. I can't drink tea so I had to go on his recommendation. I hope you enjoy it. It was fun putting this package together for you. Wishing you a Merry Christmas. Julie | ||||
This is a QUICK thank you post as I have to go and I will try and post a photo later. Thank you to JLU! The stocking is sweet and I appreciate everything you sent. My favorite is the Snoopy ornament, of course I also received a beautiful asian fabric panel, a candle, ribbons, gold metallic thread, a magazine, Christmas socks, santa fabric, and a beautiful rabbit mini. Thank you for your kindness I will get photos later and post. Thanks to the host as well!

Merry Christmas to all. It looks like we have some beautiful stockings which were opened so far. Will check back later to see who else has opened their stocking. Have a great holiday. Sue | ||||
I finally had an opportunity to open my package, and to my surprise I found TWO stockings--one for me and one for Mom! MY secret Santa is Patty J. Patty, your stockings are adorable and I just love mine. Mom was thrilled when I brought her stocking downstairs to her while in the middle of setting the table for Christmas dinner (we just opened up our presents with the rest of the family). Here are the photos of Mom and her stocking. Patty, she LOVES all her goodies, especially the scarf. You will be getting a proper thank you in the mail! http://hexagonswap.blogspot.com/ For donated quilts for the kids, check out the photos at http://kc1930.blogspot.com/201...-pictures-below.html | ||||
Mom LOVES to model! http://hexagonswap.blogspot.com/ For donated quilts for the kids, check out the photos at http://kc1930.blogspot.com/201...-pictures-below.html | ||||
The maple coffee will be served with dessert after dinner... http://hexagonswap.blogspot.com/ For donated quilts for the kids, check out the photos at http://kc1930.blogspot.com/201...-pictures-below.html | ||||
Now, time for ME to open MY stocking! When I starting pulling items out of the stocking, out came a Ziplock bag of triangles...hmmmm...then came out a paper towel tube with what looked like quilt blocks and a paper surrounding it. Patty, you sweet thing, noted all the things I couldn't have, like chocolates, and decided to make the Louisana quilt blocks for the Sunshine group for November and December (thus the leftover triangles!). Being my favorite color is green, she made these all in my shade of bright! Thank you, Patty, from the child who will receive a quilt made from these happy blocks! How thoughtful are you??? http://hexagonswap.blogspot.com/ For donated quilts for the kids, check out the photos at http://kc1930.blogspot.com/201...-pictures-below.html | ||||
And after drooling over the stockings, I finished pulling out items from the stocking and found a "I love Quilting" key chain, a rotary cutter holder AND a gift certificate for Connecting Threads! I cannot think for a better stocking and sending you, my sweet Patty, hugs and kisses. You made my Christmas! http://hexagonswap.blogspot.com/ For donated quilts for the kids, check out the photos at http://kc1930.blogspot.com/201...-pictures-below.html | ||||
It's a good thing that I posted my stocking before as DH is upset with me, so may not get a picture of the items posted!!!!! My SSSS is mcpatches. THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING! First the beautiful stocking. One year for the birthday fat qtr exchange I requested beige fabrics as I want to do a beige quilt. The beautiful stocking reminded me of that. Really need to post a picture of the other side of it as the back is just as pretty as the front. Inside and around it were The Art of the Quilt 2013 Calendar, a box of Russell Stover All Dark chocolates (love dark chocolate), a Christmas Cat Wall Hanging kit (collect cat fabrics), a lavender bath set with bodywash-handcream-soap-nailbrush, wild Christmas knee socks, snowman note book, a sardine can with a Quilter's Emergency Kit and 3 yard cuts of rwb fabrics to make pillowcases for QWL. Thank you again for everything and I hope you loved your stocking as much as I did mine... Chris | ||||
SueB is my SSSS! My stocking is so beautiful and what goodies all wrapped so snug inside. 5 beautiful hankies for my collection 2 pretty fatquarters pincushion to add to my growing collection Christmas Bell/angel ornament crocheted doily pen with curly ribbons popping out on top box of artisan rolled wafers-delicious! shopping tote that was inside a strawberry, really cute. pillow panel with chickens and another piece of "chickie" fabric, love it. At the moment my camera is charging so will be back to post a picture of everything. You're the best SueB!! | ||||
A special thank you to my SS, Luvthosequilts, who sent her pkg express, and then her pkg was delayed. So, I opened a few and will wait til she opens hers. The stocking is exceptional, crocheted in a white very soft and silky yarn. Can't imagine the directions. Then a few of the items are: a current edition McCalls quick quilts (perfect for me, as are the other items). Vanilla sugar moisturizing cream, container of vintage buttons and charms, a lighted glass angel in a globe ornament; a small size journal, a snowman ornament, and a decorative box with an actual wish bone in it! The dark chocolate candy was a real treat. So, there is even more to go; a very generous gift assortment. Can't get the picture figured out with my new computer, but hope to master it soon. Hoping your package comes tomorrow. | ||||
KC, I'm so glad that your Mom liked her stocking,. Since she was so much a part of the fq lottery, I thought she deserved something a little special. I hope those blocks are going to be ok for your Sunshine quilt. yep, that pattern can be addicting. I can make more if you need/want more.Let me know. Also if you have trouble with the gift card at CT let me know. I had a lot of fun making both those stockings and filling them up. Have a Happy Holiday. Pat | ||||
I had to call Patty after I opened the stocking and we had our own little gab fest! It's so nice to verbally connect with each other, isn't it? http://hexagonswap.blogspot.com/ For donated quilts for the kids, check out the photos at http://kc1930.blogspot.com/201...-pictures-below.html | ||||
Merry Christmas ladies, you all have received great stockings and gifts. Sue b, I sent my box by the click n ship method. My first time doing this. So after I input the addresses. When it printed out my name and address, I didn't,t want to mark it out, as I didn't,t know if that would invalidate the label. Anyway will have to check that out for next year, seeing if I can put s.sister as the name somehow. I enjoyed making that stocking and liked doing the different color squares. Glad you like the gifts. Just put the roast in the oven at my DD,s. and relaxing with a glass of chocolate wine. It wAs a gift and pretty good. Although it looks like mud. Will open my stocking when we get home. We were going to go home on Thursday but now there is bad weather for tomorrow so will have to see what develops. So, Merry Christmas all Mary Ps sorry about the bad typing. | ||||

Crazyboutquilts is my SS. What a beautiful stocking she made for me. She also made me 4 wonderful Christmas placemats. We will use them tonight. There are only the 3 of us and I never put my tablecloth on the table this year. I also received what I believe is a potholder with a pocket that she made. If it has a different use please tell me. She also made me an ornament that you press and it places music. I also received a spool of thread, a box of assorted teas, a yo-yo maker, a bag of Jelly bellys. Lastly a pack of 5 FQ's in purples and coordinating colors. I can see a quilt being made with those FQ's. First a picture of the stocking. Butterflies float around my hillside | ||||

Gary Hirshberg and Stonyfield Farm
Nancy F. Koehn and Nora N. Khan
Gary Hirshberg and Stonyfield Farm is the story of one entrepreneur's vision and journey to create a market-leading, environmentally responsible business founded on the principles of product quality, organizational alignment and sustainability. A former environmental activist, Hirshberg built Stonyfield Farm, (an organic yogurt maker based in New Hampshire), up from a seven cow-operation into a business that in 2010 had $360 million in annual revenues. The narrative pays particular attention to the early, turbulent years of the yogurt company and the excitement and uncertainty of entrepreneurial life.
The case also details the innovative marketing the company created to expand its customer base, the means it devised to cultivate and maintain customer loyalty, and the strategies it employed to penetrate the highly competitive yogurt and dairy categories nationwide. Throughout, readers will encounter the challenges that Hirshberg, his colleagues and his family confronted as they (all) worked to create a business with a firm commitment to both sustainability and high quality—a commitment rooted in Hirshberg's dedication to spreading the "gospel" of organic production to consumers.

Free Staters call out Concord officials for language on BearCat grant application
Gericke said private citizens who lie on a grant application can be prosecuted and public officials shouldn't be excused.
Photographer and store owner Brian Blackden said if the argument is that the BearCat protects police officers, a better use of the money would be a better grade of body armor.
But Duval has said Concord Police would be acquiring the BearCat for use by the Central New Hampshire Special Operations Unit, consisting of 20 communities, the Merrimack County Sheriff's Office and Plymouth State University.
Lambert questioned the need for what he called militarizing the police.
Ean said the petitions will be given to members of the City Council on Sept. 7.

A Man is So Angry About His Wait at Denny's That He Sets Their Christmas Tree On Fire:
Nothing good ever happens in the middle of the night at a Denny's. Nothing.
Around 4:00 A.M. on Sunday morning, a man was eating at Denny's in San Antonio, Texas . . . and apparently he was VERY upset over a long wait for his check.
Keep that in mind. He wasn't waiting for a table, which is infuriating. His food wasn't taking a long time to come out, which is even more infuriating. He'd eaten and he was full, just waiting on the check. That's NOT so infuriating.
So . . . he decided to set the restaurant's CHRISTMAS TREE ON FIRE.
Fortunately, no one was hurt . . . but he did $150,000 in damage. The man got away, and police have been reviewing Denny's security camera footage to try to identify him. He'll be facing arson charges.
A New Mexico Pageant Winner is Arrested For Driving Drunk, Crashing Into a Light Pole, and Knocking Out Power for 1,700 People:
Maybe this woman let the pressure of being voted the most beautiful woman in the 408th largest city in America get to her?
22-year-old Sarah Richardson was crowned Miss Las Cruces, New Mexico last month. That makes her eligible to compete for Miss New Mexico . . . and then Miss America. But all that is OFF now.
Because on Sunday night, Sarah was driving her PT Cruiser while DRUNK . . . and CRASHED into a light pole in Las Cruces. That caused a chain reaction that took down several other poles.
She ended up knocking out power to 1,700 PEOPLE and businesses in the area for several hours.
Sarah was arrested for aggravated DWI and is facing up to 90 days in jail with at least a mandatory 48-hour sentence. Yesterday, she resigned as Miss Las Cruces.

Kanye West proved just how romantic he can be over the weekend when he professed his love for lady-friend Kim Kardashian in a song.
The rap star, who unveiled the hit song "Way Too Cold" - also known as "Theraflu" - back in April, performed it again during a solo concert at the Revel Resort in Atlantic City, Us Weekly reports.
If you' ll recall, "Way Too Cold" includes the line, "I admit I fell in love with Kim," which set off speculation regarding the pair's brewing romance. At the time, Kardashian played the "we've been friends for years" card in response to the gossip while on the "Today" show.
But instead of side-stepping the song's meaning over the weekend, West referenced Kardashian directly as she watched the 35-year-old MC from the VIP box with her best friend, Jonathan Cheban.
And that wasn't all - he also shouted to the crowd at some point, "If you love someone tonight..hold on real tight!
Kim's reported response? She hugged Cheban and then herself.
Kimye has been practically inseparable lately: not only were the two recently spotted at Paris Fashion Week, they also sat in the front row of the BET Awards on July 1 in matching white outfits, next to Jay-Z and his wife, Beyonce.

Please.... Help.... Me
There is something you must know.
I've flown away on a jet plane for a mini vacay (all male packages were thoroughly checked and re-checked for bombage in the airport, FYI), and all I've ended up with is a concussion because some tool bag managed to hit me in the head with the overhead bin, and a massive addiction to a little something that I like to call guitar hero.
Seriously, I haven't eaten or urinated in 4 days. On the bright side, I'm so good that I can kick your ass.
Actually, from here on out you can refer to me as Candice Hendrix if you'd like.
Gotta go. Withdrawals are setting in.
Free Bird, you will be MINE!

I thought you had to pretty much streamline Red Bull to play Guitar Hero. So how can you not be urinating? You gotta get that checked out girl.
I'll give you the advice I'd give about any addiction; just roll with it and it will eventually play itself out. Ha, a pun. Hope you are having fun!! - January 29, 2010 at 4:01 AM

Hey where are you? It's time to come back. You could have taken a laptop with you. After all, Brent got to take HIS laptop. :)

This was a "hang out with the girls" trip - me and my laptop never left the house.
Unfortunately, I was out of duct tape and Nyquil, so someone actually had to watch the kids. - January 31, 2010 at 9:45 AM
- Mike said...
Brent - Actually the laptop I was talking about left on a trip with her girlfriends. Bummer. You know you could have just put the oldest kid in charge and hung out at the bar all day. I hear on the news about people that do that all the time.

First, thank you for your contribution of adding
so many names to this website. Your work has encouraged me in my genealogy research and to document the lives of the scores of family from whom I am descended.
I am the great grand nephew of Leah Borton Davis.
Would you kindly add Borton as her maiden name?
Also, her parents, buried in Oakridge in Springfield are:
John Walter Borton # 42974635
Cora Dell Clark Borton # 44450700
Please add these names to her basic information.
In so doing, Leah's name will appear with her siblings on her parent's Find A Grave record.
Thank you again

What kind of research documentation is most useful for agile teams? What I have seen to work best has been lightweight documentation. This would be using a wiki to record issues, focusing on debriefs, circulating transcripts, and getting everyone to observe tests. However, I find that there is a great deal of pressure in the UX Community to track all of our findings in a database.
Here is what I think:
- With limited resources, it's not practical. I think tracking usability issues in a database is a great idea in theory, but in practice I haven't seen it work out so well. We managed a "usability findings database" in a previous job, but it was unfortunately never used… Researchers spent a great deal of time maintaining the database, but designers never referenced it. Researchers would even walk through the database with designers, but designers would always say watching a fresh new study was so much more insightful.
- It doesn't align with lean/ux principles. Agile development values working software over documentation. I think this means it is more valuable to *see* someone using your design. It's becoming easier and easier to test working software, prototypes, etc. (using unmoderated testing, live-intercept recruitment methods, etc.) Instead of documentation, we should be focused on debriefs, discussions, and getting everyone exposed to users…
- Old usability issues get out dated — fast. I don't think we should base today's design decisions on data we collected a year ago — the web is changing so fast, as well as our products. We should be putting our focus on 'exposure hours' getting designers exposed to users more, which has a direct, proven impact on making products better and better. Some of the issues I found even a month ago, in an iPhone study, are no longer valid, since we've made updates to the products…
Here's the real truth: the only documentation that is necessary is in the form of *user stories* on product backlogs. Period.
What has been your experience tracking usability issues? Check back at a later date for further thoughts on UX Documentation.

Enemy of the State - DVD
The action producing-directing team of Jerry Bruckheimer and Tony Scott is back with another thrill-a-minute ride called Enemy of the State. Taking its "innocent man accidentally caught up in political corruption" story from such films as Francis Ford Coppola's The Conversation, Alfred Hitchcock's The Man Who Knew Too Much, and Sydney Pollack's Three Days of the Condor, they turn up the high-tech volume in an attempt to create the ultimate action film. Robert Clayton Dean, played by Will Smith, is a devoted father, husband, and attorney shopping for a sexy gift for his wife. What he doesn't know is that he was given a videotape from a friend (Jason Lee) regarding the recent murder of a U.S. senator led by corrupt National Security Agency official Thomas Reynolds (Jon Voight). Now Reynolds is after Dean to cover his tracks or, as the audience soon finds out, frame Dean for Rachel's murder. Since Dean isn't up on his high-tech gadgetry, he needs the aid of ex-intelligence operative Brill (Gene Hackman). Between the explosions and chases is the subtext of George Orwell's 1984 mantra "beware of big brother," as Dean realizes that in the modern world, there is no such thing as total privacy. ~ Arthur Borman, All Movie Guide
Con Air - DVD
Former war hero Cameron Poe (Nicolas Cage) is sentenced to eight years in prison when he accidentally kills a man in a barroom brawl while defending his pregnant wife. When his release comes through, he's eager to see the daughter he's never met. However, Poe's original flight is delayed, so he's put aboard a flight transporting ten of the most dangerous men in the American penal system to a new high-security facility. One of the criminals, Cyrus "The Virus" Grissom (John Malkovich), is a serial killer and insane genius who has hatched a diabolical plot: with the help of several other hoods, including Diamond Dog (Ving Rhames), Johnny 23 (Daniel Trejo), and Garland Greene (Steve Buscemi), Cyrus and his men will hijack the plane and fly to a neutral nation where they can live as free men. Poe finds himself stuck in the middle; he has to find a way to get home, keep himself alive, look after his cellmate Baby-O (Mykelti Williamson), who will die without proper medicine, and try to help the cops on the ground, including agent Vince Larkin (John Cusack). Producer Jerry Bruckheimer's first film after the death of his partner Don Simpson, Con Air shows he learned well how to assemble the formula all by himself, with plenty of action, stunts, and special effects and not a lot of story to get in the way. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

Tengiz only has looked at it frowningly, and the Male pig was there and then receded.
Has become silent. Has sucked away from banks - thoroughly as if to air typed before diving. Also has dived. And it here
again did not become. It was possible to work easy further, but, unfortunately, Krasavchik has already run low. And he did
not know anything. "We with Koljanom - are on duty on parking. Our business - cars. To adjust, roll away. To ring out,
examine. To preserve. And in the house we after all never, as a matter of fact, also do not happen. To you followed not with
us, and to somebody from clerks to talk. Girls sit - from bureau..." Tengiz has released it. It has released both of them, and
they have immediately risen, have accurately put chairs into place, have said goodbye, ineptly having bowed, and send to,
sucking on the move from the banok, - huge, heavy, worthless... But Krasavchik thus looked all the same very much even
nedurstvenno: it is good, it is not simple gromozdok, and it is elegant-sporti - veins and even it is beautiful, - to look
pleasantly. But the little man obviously any, and stupid thus, as a knee of the parlourmaid. And the Lord with them both...
Girls from bureau, meanwhile, to a clang and a tinkling sound have brought down something at themselves on a table, a
jug any with juice, - a table has instantly filled in, has begun to flow on a floor, have departed to the plug-spoon parties, - girls,
roaring with laughter, have jumped, rescuing dresses and handbags, waiter Maradona already hastened to them, without
becoming angry at all and all in readiness to do a favour and serve, and girls have looked round, have seen empty seats and
with shchebetaniem have fluttered to Tengizu so anything in an event without having understood and already quite ready to
the immediate use.
However, he has waited, while Maradona will transfer it from their crushed little table hardly taken a bite hachapuri, and
new kuvshinchik it will organise, and will clean the rests of a feast of security structures, - and they in the meantime briskly
perehihikivalis with each other "and chirped all, chirped, whether twitter-... Silly women damned" (in full conformity with a joke
favourite Andrey Jurevicha about molodozhena and about its impressions of a new image of a house life). They did not pay
attention to Tengiza, apparently, absolutely, but he knew that they attentively and quite professionally survey it and fluctuate
in its occasion (whether it is worthy attention - or so, penek roadside), and he did not begin to wait, while they will make the
choice, and itself has taken them in hand, yes so that at them only edges have crackled, and within ten silent, is intimate-
confidential, almost love minutes they by turns told to it everything that they knew, and everything what only could guess,
and everything about what heard, but in it not very much trusted...
... Bright, as tropical butterflies, and the same brainless. "Krylysh - kami bjak-bjak". Absolutely both any and by name of
anybody. Tiresomely - magnificent samochki, gnusnenko-divine vessels for dump izvest - nyh surpluses of ability to live of an
enjoying organism... Kitties.
Delightfully stinking poisonous kitties. Biped magnificent cars for a repeated coition... It has closed eyes to drive away
delusion, and they, both, having immediately released, have calmed down scaredly as if prislushiva - jas to echoes own
senseless and dangerous shchebetanja, their birdbrain, having understood nothing, have felt black threat, it it became
terrible, uncomfortable - the ice cold winter has rushed suddenly to them into frank cuts of dresses and zaledenila them, has
covered with goose pimples a magnificent satiny skin... They, without arranging and without having eaten up hardly begun,
have broken from places and have desperately rushed off to an exit, swinging bright handbags on a long thong, just without
passing to panic run, without noticing and without hearing anything round itself, without seeing cheerfully-amazed looks
chewing having been of use

Pictures (0)NewsIntel rolls out Xeon E5-1600 and E5-2600 CPUs
Mar 07, 2012: Intel yesterday introduced Romley server platform for single- and
dual-socket workstations and servers. The platform is going to replace
Tylersburg platform with Xeon 5600 series processors, that were on the
market since March 2010. Yesterday's launch included C600 series
"Patsburg" chipset, and Xeon E5-1600 or E5-2600
chips, based on "Sandy Bridge-EP" core, and utilizing socket R (socket
2011). More Xeon E5 microprocessors are expected in the second
quarter, when the Romley platform will be expanded with E5-2400 and
E5-4600 CPUs.
Intel Xeon E5 CPUs surfaced on Intel website
Jan 07, 2012: Forthcoming Intel Xeon E5 family will be separated into 4
subfamilies, based on intended market. Xeon E5-4600 will support up to
4-way servers, E5-2400 and E5-2600 will target 2-way servers and
workstations, and E5-1600 series will work in uni-processor
systems. In the past months we reported on details of E5-1600, E5-2400
and E5-2400 families, whereas model lineup of E5-4600 family was not
known up to this moment. Today Intel added Xeon E5 box part numbers and S-spec
numbers to Material Declaration Data Sheets (MDDS) database. This
addition confirmed processor numbers of one- and two-way Xeon E5 chips,
and revealed E5-4600 processor numbers.
Prices of Xeon E5-2600-series CPUs
Oct 27, 2011: In the first half of 2012 Intel will introduce Xeon E5 server chips
for single-, dual-core and quad-processor servers. The first two E5
families, coming in Q1 2012, are E5-1600 and E5-2600 series for socket
2011 platform. We already published CPU line-ups for both E5
subfamilies, and we reported on Xeon E5-1600 launch prices. We
also recently learned about Xeon E5-2600 prices.
Launch schedule of Intel Xeon E5 microprocessors
Oct 10, 2011: Last week there were plenty of news stories regarding soon to be
released AMD server microprocessors, built on "Bulldozer"
micro-architecture. As you may know, Intel also planned to introduce
new server processors, branded as Xeon E5, in the fourth quarter.
In September, during Intel Developer Forum event in San Francisco, new
information came to light implying that Xeon E5 launch is postponed
until the first quarter 2012.
Intel to launch Xeon E5-2600 series in Q4 2011
Aug 26, 2011: In July we disclosed details of Xeon E5-1600 family of server-class
microprocessors, designed for one-way servers and high-performance
workstations. Processors from this family are part of Romley-WS
platform, which is coming in the next quarter. The CPUs are based on
32nm Sandy Bridge-EP core, and they utilize socket R (socket 2011).
Also in the 4th quarter, Intel will launch Romley-EP dual-socket
platform, consisting of 17 different E5-2600 models and C600-series chipset.

Best Notebook with MultiMedia Card Slots of 2013
2 August 2013 by Permi Krishna
MMC's are flash memory memory card standard. It has been superseded by the Secure Digital (SD) card, but can still be used in most devices that support SD cards. Since the introduction of Secure Digital card few companies build MMC slots into their devices, but the slightly thinner, pin-compatible MMCs can be used in almost any device that supports SD cards if the software/firmware on the device supports them.

Cambridge English Corpus
The Cambridge English Corpus is a multi-billion word collection of written and spoken English. It includes the Cambridge Learner Corpus, a unique bank of exam candidate papers. Our authors study the Corpus to see how English is really used, and to identify typical learner mistakes. This means that Cambridge materials help students to avoid mistakes, and you can be confident the language taught is useful, natural and fully up-to-date.
Cambridge learner's dictionaries, grammar and vocabulary learning materials, and examination, business and general English course books have all benefited from the information in the Cambridge English Corpus. We no longer have to rely on intuition to know what people say or write; instead, we can see what hundreds of different speakers or writers have actually said or written. So, materials developed with our Corpus are more authentic and can illustrate language as it is really used.
To find out more about the Corpus, go to the link in the Extras menu.

Just take a moment to read the words above the leaded window, "Rycharde Dale Carpender Made Thies Windovs By The Grac Of God." These windows belonging to Little Moreton Hall in Cheshire, England and installed around the year 1450, still stand today. I have seen them, admired the craftsmanship but particularly, I feel the deepest respect for Rycharde Dale. (Although it's possible, even for his time, he wouldn't have won a spelling contest.) My husband works in a similarly old profession, as a stonemason, trained as they have been for centuries. He also signs his work, albeit more cryptically than the loquacious Mr. Dale with a mason's symbol. I like the pride, the belief that it's not worth doing if it's not done well and won't stand the test of time. What are any of us doing now that is done well enough to last? (The answer that popped into my head is really quite cynical but I'll share it with you - processed food: it's so full of preservatives that it will likely be around hundreds of years from now.)
Good on you Rycharde Dale! Hooray for any of you who have pride and passion in what you do.

SMF Support > Install and Upgrade Help
Strange behaviour after upgrade from 2.0rc3 to 2.02
Currently trying to upgrade (on a temporary subdomain so my visitors don't see my issues) from 2.0rc3 to 2.02
I've created a subdomain.
Copied the files, created an extra database and restored a backup
in this subdomain I've upgraded the rc3 to 2.02
i then created a second subdomain to do a clean install of SMF 2.02. I then pointed the dbase and settings to the correct path and database.
Everything seems to be in working order, but 1 thing.
when I go to 20.domain.com i get the error: "The topic or board you are looking for appears to be either missing or off limits to you."
But when I go to 20.domain.com/index.php I get my forum index..
Please note that this is a clean forum install using an upgraded database, no plugins or addons are installed yet.
The original forum has:
AEVA Plugin
pretty urls
What could be the issue?? I've tried searching, but this is such a general error......
Fixed... Stupid me missed a .htaccess file..
Ha! Thanks for telling us how you fixed it, Roo! That might help others, in the future!

Recipe by Campbell's Kitchen
"It takes just 5 minutes to put this casserole together . . . then just pop it in the oven, and soon you'll have a fantastic chicken, rice and veggie dish with lots of melted cheese."
Watch video tips and tricks
1 (10.75 ounce) can Campbell's® Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup (Regular or 98% Fat Free)
1 cup water
1 (6 ounce) package seasoned long-grain and wild rice mix
1 (16 ounce) bag frozen vegetable combination (broccoli, carrots, water chestnuts)
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
6 (4 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
This dish is the most flavorful chicken casserole you will find. Good dish to make for family and friends.
This was okay, nothing too special but definitely super quick to prepare and was made with common household ingredients.

Quick and easy but COMPLETELY bland. After reading the ingredients, I substituted the Cream of Mushroom for Cream of Chicken, and with the Paprika I added some Thyme, a touch of Ginger (I was using the frozen Stir-Fry veggies) and some Cayenne. It smelled delicious, but unfortunately it was completely tasteless. Will not be making agian.
use up those leftovers this dish is a great one for that.you can use any cream soup really they all seem to work out great for me.My hubby can even make this dish without help and he can hardly make toast.LOL this works great with pork chops as well.
I did some things different,instead of water i used milk,and a spoonful of sour cream,to make it creamier..To make the chicken more flavorful I dressed it up a bit,with some garlic powder sprinkled on both sides, Goya seasoning on both sides,a little bit of dill on one side,a sprinkle of sazon Goya on both sides,instead of the paprika. Than i placed the chicken on top,and sprinkled some lemon juice over it,was a nice touch,other than that I followed everything else to recipe.
Had to do some substitutions based on stuff on hand. Here is what I did: used brown rice with a packet of Hidden Valley Ranch Dips seasoning, used mixed frozen vegetables (carrots, peas, green beans, and corn) about 2 cups, and instead of paprika used plain salt & pepper on the chicken. This was delicous! Both my dad and I ate 2 salad bowls full. I would recommend doubling the recipe for more than 3 people- we barely had leftover between the 2 of us (plus my 2 year old daughter).
This is a great recipe. The only thing I did differently is replace the water with chicken broth. I have also used fresh veggies in place of frozen twice. Once with baby carrots and once with sugar snap peas~great both times.
