Bill Glasson swiftly polished off his round at Shoal Creek, finishing before lunchtime and leaving the rest of the Regions Tradition field chasing.
Dan Forsman didn't catch up until about four hours later Thursday when he completed a run of four straight birdies at No. 14.
Forsman and Glasson shared the first-round lead at 6-under 66 in the Regions Tradition, the second of the Champions Tour's five major championships.
Glasson and Fulton Allem were first on the course and done by 11 a.m., finishing up in 3 hours, 21 minutes. The solo lead held up longer than that, though Glasson might not have noticed because he said he wouldn't spend the afternoon monitoring the scoreboard.
''My philosophy is I need all the birdies to make up for the impending bogeys I'm going to make,'' he said. ''So it doesn't do any good for me to watch. I just need to make as many birdies as I can.
''This course will get you, there's no doubt about it. It's about one of the best courses in the country.''

Stocks have not recovered from their opening-bell drop with the three major indexes awash in red at the session's half.

Also, new data released this morning showed inventories at domestic wholesalers fell last month.
Tuesday's news that Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi had finally bowed to pressure and would resign once new austerity measures are passed helped push markets in the U.S. and Asia higher. However, sentiment quickly turned from relief to uncertainty over who will lead Italy through the debt crisis.
In Greece, Prime Minister George Papandreou resigned as a new coalition government is set to take over the government in that country, led by house speaker Filippos Petsalnikos, Reuters reported.
Also this morning, new data from the Commerce Department indicated that inventories at the wholesale level fell 0.1% last month but were up 11.9% from the previous yea, MarketWatch reported. Sales to wholesalers increased 0.5% last month.

Wal-Mart Stores ( WMT ) shares are down as the retailer launched new applications for the iPhone and iPad designed to give its customers tools to plan their weekly shopping trips as well as a new way to access Walmart both in-store and online.

Computer memory maker STEC Inc. ( STEC ) plunged after reporting mixed Q3 results, and a dismal Q4 revenue forecast. STEC reported Q3 profit plunged 65% on lower sales.

Home ›This is an activity about telescopes. Learners will first measure several circles to determine their diameters and calculate their areas. Afterwards, they will cover each circle entirely with pennies and record how many pennies are needed for each circle size. The concept to be explored is that as the diameter of a telescope lens or mirror increases, the telescope is thus able to collect more light.

Outaouais - La Binerie Kazabazua awesome let me know what you think :) I wasnt sure if anybody here ever went in that direction |
Outaouais - La Binerie Kazabazua Up the 105, on your way from Ottawa/Gatineau to Maniwaki and Mont Laurier, right after the small village of Kazabazua , there is a small place called La Binerie that sell (obviously) beans, sand-baked ones. Voir did an article on her in 2006 http://voir.ca/voir-la-vie/gastronomi... Anyway if any of you is in that area for watever reason (its a beautiful coin de pays by the way ;) ) I recommend a pit stop there. |
Great news :) Also great response to customers demands through the survey! Gotta give that to them, there customer service is pretty awesome (at least in my experience!) |
Went to Chalet Amu Jan to watch the Iran-Bosnia game, and I was very happy with the food. The place was packed but they still managed to bring out our food in a reasonnable amount of time. Tried the veal tongue sandwich and the meat cutlet sandwich, both were very tasty (with cucumbers, pickles, sauce etc) and pretty big for 6$. |
yes definitely not a day to go wander around town! Even for scones ;) |
I work in Westmount and le Fournil is open today (scones for breakfast!). The metro in Westmount and IGA in Saint-Henri are closed. Café Saint-Henri was open. |
Montreal: Poutine and Shish Taouk and Couscous and.... oops seems like there is still some trouble with your post :( |
Cuisine sezchuan or Kanbai? Those sezchuan peppers are really hot and tasty |
Openings & Closings April, May, June 2014 Went and tried it today, got the grilled cheese doughnut and it was really delicious. Its a doughnut like bun (no holes tough) with cheese, grilled, and with some powdered sugar and some grilled fresh berries on top. And at 2.95$ +tx I tought it was very reasonnable. |
Restaurants Near the Terrasse Royale Hotel Les Fougères is still great (went sometime last year and my parents go twice a month), They have a side store now and indeed they sell a lot of frozen and ready to eat items, but I cant say that I noticed that the food quality in the restaurant went down (not that I go that often). |
Yes we made a rule of only sticking to veggies and fruit and nothing else, because if not it gets too expensive for us!! And then we buy everything else at PA to reduce the rest of our grocery costs :p |
Im using Lufa for a basket, they are using greenhouses located in the city for growing their vegetable and also source some items from local farmers. You can customize your basket everyweek (not a lot of fruit so far but a lot of other products (granola, bread, yogourt, etc)). You can also easily skip a basket for a week or more and you pay weekly. Its worth a look if thats something that would interest you! It is a bit expensive, but I find that the quality of the products is great. |
haha OMG I remember the bathroom. We went with a couple of friend and we all had to go try it, it was so bizarre. Also we were sitting on the patio,and from the bathroom you can hear everything that is said from the patio... The food was great too (it was last year that we went), now Im tempted to try it again! |
best in-store beer selections? Marché Long Vert in St Henri Not sure if the selection is better than some other places named here, I dont really go out of my way for beer, but this place is on our way home (so we've been drinking more beer...) So I tought I would mention it! |
Shakshuka (Shakshouka) in Montreal Thanks to you i made the lebovitz recipe last night with my fresh Lufa tomatoes. It was delicious :) thanks for the inspiration! |
Cabane a sucre Au Pied de Cochon Just got the phone call for the Cabane aux pommes. My reservation got in at 12h03 and I was 200th on the list.. |
love the end note : and Mr T at the end ;) |
Cabane a sucre Au Pied de Cochon I didnt have too much problem, it took about 1 min to load the page at midnight.... Happy i upgraded my internet speed last week, just in time :p |
Opening/Closings January to March 2014 A new place opening in may on Notre Dame in Saint-Henri, called Henri Saint-Henri (?!?) |
was curious what 'salted fish bits' where. Found this recipe while googling: I love fish cakes... now Im tempted to go buy fish bits too... |
Curious, I walk past the RCA on St Antoine every week to go to work and I never knew there was a café in there! They should put a sign up. I'll try to go try it since its on my way, I'll report back to let you know if I end up going! |
No recent review on this thread so i tought I would put mine. |
2014 Restaurant and Food Store OPENINGS!! Thanks I fixed it :) |
Opening/Closings January to March 2014 I made a post on the new opening on the Ontario board also. |
2014 Restaurant and Food Store OPENINGS!! I know this board is mainly focused on Toronto, but here is an opening in Gatineau, near Ottawa that might interest those of you in that are in the Ottawa region. I also posted it on the Montreal board, since Im never sure where to put info about Ottawa Gatineau places : http://www.lapresse.ca/vins/actualite... Veronique Rivest the somelière (2nd at the world championship of someliers last years) is opening her own wine bar this april, called Soif, which will be on the rue Montcalm, in the Vieux Hull neighbourhood. Hope this works out it would be a great addition to the Gatineau food scene. |
Opening/Closings January to March 2014 Yes your right, Im always confused as to where to look or post information about the Ottawa Gatineau area , falls in between both board, since the Ontario one is mostly focused on the TO area... Its own board would be awesome :) altough probably would be very quiet... |
Opening/Closings January to March 2014 I know this board is mainly focused on Montreal, but here is an opening in Gatineau that I will make sure to try next time Im there : Veronique Rivest the somelière (2nd at the world championship of someliers last years) is opening her own wine bar this april, called Soif, which will be on the rue Montcalm, in the Vieux Hull neighbourhood. Hope this works out it would be a great addition to the Gatineau food scene. |
Qing Hua (Xiao Long Bao) New Location-St Catherine There is a lamb one and its really delicious... its lamb and coriander i think. This freezing weather would be perfect to go back there actually... yum! |
Quebecois Tourtiere or First Nations meat pie?? That must be a funny/cute photo :) I hope I will still be making tourtiere with my mom when she is 85! |
Quebecois Tourtiere or First Nations meat pie?? haha our tourtières are not ready for a taste test! each year we tweak the recipe a little, but since we have been doing them for only 3-4 years now (before it was my great-aunt doing them for us) we still have a way to go before perfecting the recipe, and since they get done only once a year, progress is slow! But when we finaly get to a perfect recipe, ill share it and then maybee we can do a test :p (in 15 years?) lol |

Used Snowshoes If you are thinking of buying or selling used snowshoes, we have put together a short list of the top places on the Web to buy or sell snowshoes. We think the best sites are the auction sites that feature the biggest selection of items as well as a system for rating sellers and buyers. Almost all their buyers and sellers are reputable and honest, but use some caution when dealing with those that do not have much previous history, or when considering international transactions. These sites all require you to register with them before you can buy, sell or bid on an item. Registering is simple and quick. They don't ask for any real personal info or financial info, unless you want to sell on their site, then they will want to know a little bit more about you. Registering is one of the ways that helps make these sites so secure. eBay It doesn't get much better than eBay. They will have the biggest selection guaranteed. You can usually find many small retailers and manufacturers selling last year's models, returned items and open-box items at big discounts. It works very well and it costs nothing to register with them. Snowshoes for sale at eBay
If you have a favorite site that you have had good luck with buying or selling snowshoe gear please let us know.
Other Good Sites: Gaidis Antiques - They sell used and antique snowshows.

This skit is about several characters in a mental institution because they have voices in their head. For some reason, the doctor wants them all to come out about their, "First Time..." in order to make some progress. This is what happenes... Yes... it's meant to be weird!! Don't question the plot!

VAC 11 Judge Review:
I was skeptical about this after reading your description, but this turned out to be one of the funniest entries I've heard. I started laughing almost instantly. There was quite a plethora of variation in voices and the mixing was very well done, though I have to say your voice booming quite louder than the music at the beginning surprised me, but it wasn't too big of a deal. Although you tell me not to question the plot, I have to say that that's my biggest question. This was really more of a voice demo, and I've heard some of your stuff before and they've been mostly voice demos as well. I would have liked to follow a real plot instead of listening to joke after joke after joke. Though the voices and the humor were outstanding, I really want to hear how you take control of your voices by sticking with a coherent dialogue. Anyways, this was quite good and I enjoyed it very much. Excellent work!
Rated 4 / 5 stars
First thing's first.
Beaking. Off... Perfect.
Now on to the actual review. The writing: Very good. Takes the "My First" theme to THAT level, but does it well. It's something I can get down with. The whole Yoda scenario didn't sit right with me at first, but it's funny to an extent. One problem, however. The mental institution and voices in head idea doesn't really fit for me. It feels as if there could have been a different way to present the "first" idea, yet there's not so this is the best option. It's hard to explain, but anyway, good job on that front. I enjoyed the ambiance and sound effects. Each piece of music fits each character presented and gives more tone and feel to these characters. On that note, the characters are varied and actually feel different. Nice work. Now for the meat of this whole audio burger, the (voice) acting. You've put emotion and feel into these characters and made it work nicely. On a technical front, however, it sounds... "off". It's as if you were speaking away from your microphone slightly, it just doesn't sit right in my stomach.
To conclude, you did good work. The voices fit, the writing was excellent, and it was overall done well. Needs a bit more work done though. Keep at it.
Well the cool thing is, none of this was written down, I just kinda voiced as I went a long. Thanks for the compliments!! The microphone thing, ... I think my mic is perfectrly fine, it may have just been the audio equalizing, mostly on the 'narrator' / Doctor.. I wanted him to sound kinda 'intercomish', so that's why he sounds like that. I probably put a little too much, but it's okay. Actually, I notice too when I upload stuff (doesn't matter where), the audio never sounds as great as the actual file itself when you open it raw on the computer. But that's just how places take the audio I assume, lowering the quality down slightly.
I use Adobe Audition CS5.5 btw.
Again, thanks for reviewing!! :)
*Update* I figured out why the mic probably sounded off... I just started using this Porta Booth by Harlan Hogan, like brand new to it... I found out just now that the booth won't work right at all unless you have your mic pretty close to the front and not actually INSIDE the booth. If the mic is inside the booth, the mid-range frequencies get ANNOYING (boxy), which is what you were hearing. But now I have found the sweet spot where everything sounds crisp... Wish I would have known this earlier!
Rated 4 / 5 stars
Nice job, fellow entrant! I think the plot was a bit predictable and kind of...Well, you went right to the place that most people would go to, and it wasn't bad, but it was very straight forward. The voices were great, and they were varied pretty well. Good luck!
Rated 4 / 5 stars
Ahaha well done. Great use of music, although I think you could have done more with the sound effects during the robot's story.
Honestly my biggest complaint is just that there's no real reason why this needs to be in a mental institution, and I think the inclusion of that detail ends up being a bit confusing; I kept thinking there was going to be some big reveal, like the Doctor would turn out to be just another patient who wanted something to masturbate to or something.
Great voices, great acting. The really important stuff you did perfectly.
HAHAHAH! That's actually a really good idea about the doctor being just one of the patients.. >P We'll have to revise this and have it animated one day. XD! Hey! It could happen!

Ana María
Update on Ana María
Ana María Comercio 500000Ana María, 42, lives in the community of Puntarenas on the Pacific Ocean coast of Costa Rica, called Fray Casiano. It is a poor community with social hardship, and it is where Ana lives with her husband and four children, one of whom is a minor and the rest work in Puntarenas. She sells perfumes, clothing and shoes as a street vendor on a bicycle. On the weekends she also sells food to her neighbors.
With this loan she wants to buy merchandise for Mother's Day and mid-term vacation, taking advantage of the season to earn more and give her family better living conditions. She sells on credit to her friends and customers and visits them weekly to collect payment so she can pay her debts and buy more goods and ingredients for her meals.
Her goal is to continue working and helping her husband with the household expenses, trying to get ahead in a an area where it is difficult to do so. She had to overcome health problems related to diabetes and spent time in the hospital. During that time, the support from her family was very important as far as maintaining her small business.
Her vast experience (nearly 15 years) has allowed her to have an excellent customer base. Her product is sold under very good payment conditions, meaning she collects payment weekley. The food she sells is very good according to her neighbors. She sells clothing, shoes, perfumes and other brand items. She makes delivery and collects, using her bicycle, and on weekends she makes and sells food. This is her second loan and she has an excellent credit record.

Ella se comunica con sus clientes que son amigos y vecinos ofreciendo sus productos los cuales da a pagos, los visita semanalmente para cobrar y así recuperar su dinero, pagar sus obligaciones y comprar más mercadería o productos para preparar sus comidas.
Tiene como meta seguir trabajando y apoyando a su esposo con los gastos de la casa y tratar de superarse en una zona donde esto es muy difícil. Tuvo que superar problemas de salud causados por la diabetes, ya que estuvo internada en el hospital, en este tiempo el apoyo de su familia fue muy importante para mantener activa su microempresa.

La comida que vende es muy buena, según comentarios de los vecinos. Comercializa ropa, zapatos perfumes y otros artículos de marca.

More information about this loan
In Costa Rica, funding for microfinance institutions is hard to come by, and many institutions find themselves having difficulty growing and reaching all the demand for loans that exist. Kiva works with Fundacion Mujer because it attends a very marginalized population in Costa Rica, with a specific focus on women. In addition to the loan, Fundacion Mujer provides specialized training programs for their borrowers on everything from computer classes to salon training. Because of the difficulty in obtaining capital in Costa Rica, Fundacion Mujer cannot serve all the women that need loans. Therefore Kiva plays a unique role in helping Fundacion Mujer grow its portfolio and reach borrowers it otherwise would not be able to.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Motorcycle Rider Course Information:
The Additional Riding Course: (Novice)
The Additional Riding Course is only available to those students who previously completed a Delaware Motorcycle Program BRC. To be eligible for enrollment in the Additional Riding Course you must have passed the Knowledge Test with a minimum score of 80% and accumulated 21 or more points on the Riding Skills Evaluation. Your eligibility will be determined prior to enrollment.
You must take this course within 90 days of your unsuccessful completion of the BRC. This is a one day course. The class consists of approximately 1 hour classroom instruction and 6 hours of range instruction/riding. The classroom portion will cover Risk Management, Riding Gear and Range Rules. The range exercises will address starting/stopping, limited space maneuvers, cornering and avoiding hazards. At the completion of the range instruction the Riding Skills Evaluation will be administered. If you successfully complete the Riding Skills Evaluation, receive a score of 20 points or less, you will be issued a Student Completion Card. Present the Student Completion Card at any DMV, take an eye test and pay the $8.00 fee to receive a new driver's license with an "M" endorsement.
Other options available to you if you are unsuccessful during the Basic Rider Course or Additional Riding Course; reschedule for another Basic Rider Course, or take the learner's permit examination at the DMV. Once you receive your permit you must wait 10 days before taking the riding test at DMV. When you successfully pass riding test you will be issued a motorcycle endorsement.
Course Registration Information
The registration fee for Delaware residents is $35.00. Out-of-state residents pay $100.00.
You are considered a Delaware resident if you: | If you are under 18 years of age you must: |
Live in Delaware and hold a current, valid Delaware driver's license | Your parent or legal guardian must accompany you to the first session of class to sign the course waiver. If they are unable to accompany you to the first session, they can request the waiver from the registration office and return it with their notarized signature. |
Are military personnel or a dependent of one stationed in Delaware and have a valid driver's license from another state, or | Have completed driver education, and have a full Class D license without restrictions. |
Have a valid driver's license from another state and are currently enrolled as a full-time student (minimum of 12 semester credits) in an accredited Delaware university, college, or community college. | Students are not permitted to take the motorcycle course on a Graduated Driver License, which is a permit. It is not a license until it is upgraded to a Class D license when the driver completes twelve months of supervised driving experience. |
Course Schedules
Listed below are all of the locations where courses are offered. The number in parentheses represents how many additional riding courses are currently scheduled at that location. If you wish to attend an additional riding course at a location where none are scheduled, please check back at another time.
Receiving Other Course Information
You can receive course information the following ways:
E-mail your name and address, city, state, zip to email@example.com and a brochure and course registration form will be mailed to you.
Call 302-832-5163 (New Castle County), 302-744-2658 (Kent County) or 302-853-1030 (Sussex County). Leave the requested information on the voice mail recorder, speaking clearly and slowly. A brochure and course registration form will be mailed to you.
Unless otherwise notified, registrants will receive course confirmation by mail upon receipt of payment. If a student does not receive a confirmation letter within 10 working days of registering, call the Registration Office and leave your name, phone number, best time to call you, and a message to that effect.
Each course is limited to 12 students. If fewer than 6 persons have enrolled for a class, the class will be cancelled and you will have a choice of rescheduling to another class or requesting a refund. Registration fees are non-refundable for any reason except course cancellation or if the student provides at least 72 hours notification of canceling. All student requested refunds will be subject to a $15.00 processing fee. No requests for refund will be processed after December 31 of that training year. Requests must be sent in writing to the Coordinator along with your driver license number, Social Security Number, check number and amount, name, address, phone number and class number, to Coordinator, DMCP, P.O. Box 698, Dover, DE 19903.
Proper Riding Gear
A motorcycle rider is physically vulnerable. In an accident, a rider and passenger on a motorcycle are more likely to be injured than an automobile driver and passenger. Wearing protective gear, however, can reduce motorcycle injuries.
All students must wear the following items of apparel to ride a motorcycle in the class:
- Low-heel, sturdy, over-the-ankle footwear. Boots are recommended; cloth or canvas shoes are not permitted.
- Jeans or sturdy long pants. No sweats.
- Long-sleeved shirt or jacket.
- DOT- approved 3/4 or full-face helmet. (Loan helmets available).
- Eye protection (glasses or goggles).
- Full-fingered gloves.
Course Benefits:
- Get a professional introduction to motorcycling with the beginner rider course!
- Get your license to ride! Course graduates are exempt from the DMV road test.
- Save 10% on your motorcycle liability insurance! Course graduates receive an MSF and State of Delaware Student Completion Card, entitling you to a 10% liability insurance discount. This discount begins on the inception date or the first renewal date of your motorcycle policy and terminates at the policy's expiration date subsequent to three years after completion of the course. You must send a copy of this card to your insurance company in order to receive the discount.
- Your original student completion card cannot be replaced so keep it in a secure place.
Note: The State of Delaware cannot guarantee that other states will accept our course as certification for a motorcycle endorsement, nor can we guarantee the 10% liability insurance discount in other states.
State-Approved Course
This program is administered through the Delaware Department of Transportation, Division of Motor Vehicles. Delaware motorcyclists fund this program through licensing, license renewals, and motorcycle registration fees.

SAP Acquires Sybase To Capture Mobile Momentum
Posted by Michele Pelino on May 15, 2010
Earlier this week SAP acquired Sybase for $5.8 billion. Blogs from my colleagues Stefan Ried and Holger Kisker primarily address the database and business analytics components of the acquisition. However, it is important to recognize how prominently SAP emphasized Sybase's success as a mobile middleware platform and solution provider as a key driver of the acquisition. SAP highlighted the importance of extending mobile applications to billions of mobile users worldwide over any device as a strategic imperative. Forrester's 2010 survey of IT decision makers in nearly 2,000 North American and European enterprises highlights the critical role of mobile applications and smartphone devices in corporate strategic initiatives. When it comes to mobile applications, 45% of enterprises prioritize supporting more mobile applications for out of office users as a critical or high priority in the coming year, and 33% state that supporting more mobile applications for employees who work in the office is an important or critical priority. In addition, supporting the use of more smartphones is an important or critical priority for 44% of enterprises.
The Sybase acquisition will enable SAP to deliver mobile applications to the growing number of individuals using mobile devices and smartphones. Sybase has a suite of mobile solutions including the Sybase Unwired Platform, a mobile client development platform which supports device platforms including RIM, Google Android, and Apple iPhone. The Sybase 365 mobile messaging platform supports messages for over 700 enterprise customers, including many leading communication service providers. Mobile assets account for about one third of Sybase's $1.2 billion revenues, and are the fastest growing segment of the business.
SAP and Sybase are not strangers. In March 2009, the two companies established a partnership to develop and deliver SAP applications over the Sybase Unwired Platform. SAP's acquisition of Sybase solidifies this relationship permanently and provides SAP with immediate credibility in the mobile solution arena. Sybase is challenged with retaining the ability to provide mobile middleware solutions to enable the interface of many different mobile applications (not just SAP applications) with the fragmented array of mobile device operating systems. Sybase will be a wholly owned subsidiary of SAP which should give Sybase the autonomy to continue to play this neutral role in the mobile middleware arena. However, Sybase must show that this is, indeed, the case in the future.

Too busy to blog...
View 3FAITHFUL's Sparkpage
View All Blog Entries from 3FAITHFUL
Tuesday, July 26, 2011
It's been almost 3 months since I blogged and sparked. Wow. Looking back I'm not surprised. The end of the school year is my busiest time of year at work and it's also the time of my triplets birthday. They usually get the short end of the stick with work pulling me away but this year I took 2 days off and focused my attention on giving them a great 8th grade graduation celebration and birthday party. It was worth all the time and effort. Sometimes I get so wrapped up in my job that I get my priorities messed up. Oh well, that's another blog.
I continue to walk and record my steps with my pedometer and upload those steps to my healthcare provider's website (mandatory or my family has to pay more for healthcare). The majority of my days are over 10,000 steps but it has not translated to any change on the scale.
Good news, a new gym finally opened near my house and I'm happy to add weight training to my workout. I feel so good when I'm exercising regularly.
I'm done with the 17 day diet. Every time I do something that is high protein I end up with tummy problems (constipation). I've kept a few of the principals from that diet - the yogurt/kefir smoothies but for the most part am not doing much in the way of a formal eating plan.
I recently read Paul McKenna's Book - I Can Make You Thin. I've been listening to his 25 minute cd most days (I put it on my ipod). For someone who has loads and loads of stress in their life, the CD has been wonderful. It's about 20-25 minutes long and is helping me relax and visualize. It's a self-hypnosis kind of thing. It's helping me to be more "present" when it comes to food: Am I really hungry, what do I really want to eat, how does the food taste, etc. I'm working on eating when I'm hungry and stopping when I'm full. That's a tough concept for a girl who is an emotional/stress eater - hunger has nothing to do with my normal eating patterns.
Anyway, I'm here. I'm sparking. I continue on my path to good health and if my clothes would start fitting better, I'd be thrilled!

II. Investments into the business.
III. All current assets like cash in hand, sundry debtors, cash at bank, bills receivable, stock, and similar more.

Tolar drops wild game at Millsap
In a game featuring a score that more closely resembled a football outcome than softball, the Tolar Lady Rattlers came up short Tuesday at Millsap, falling 18-17.
Along with the offensive outburst for each squad, the game went eight innings before the Lady Bulldogs won.
Tolar (3-7) had 20 hits in the loss. The Lady Rattlers were led by Kayla Bonnell, who had five hits, including a triple, and two runs batted in.
Tatum Newton was a home run shy of hitting for the cycle, collecting a single, double and triple with three RBIs. Katie Keith had three hits with three RBIs, and Staci Ashley had three hits.
Millsap forced an extra inning with a two-run rally in the bottom of the seventh. The Lady Rattlers regained the lead, 17-15, with a pair of runs in the top of the eighth, but surrendered three runs in the bottom of the inning.
Tolar jumped out to a 13-2 lead after the top of the fifth, but Millsap erupted for 11 runs in the bottom of the fifth.
Tolar never trailed until the eighth inning.
"The game was under our control until the bottom of the fifth," said Tolar coach Christie Collie. "We let them back in the game. We should have won the game in the eighth.
"With that being said, our loss is due to our mental defense."
Tolar 310 541 12 – 17 20
Millsap 001 1(11)0 2 3 – 18 7

If there was a Green medal in the Olympics, Putin would not win it.
Years ago, Russia won its Olympic bid in large part by pledging to host the most environmentally friendly Games ever. Now, however, it's obvious that Sochi did not fulfill these promises and, in fact, has perpetrated an ecological nightmare.
Here are four reasons even the most casual environmentalists will resent Sochi's actions:
1. Illegally Dumping Waste
So much for Sochi's "zero waste" claims: the Associated Press has proven Russia's vow to use only renewable materials in their construction efforts and not dump waste false. Though the nation tried to hide this dumping, the press agency found literal tons of waste being dumped unsafely in a protected area.
Since the illicit spot was discovered, Russian officials blamed it on a hired company's "error."
Still, no effort has been made to remove the dangerous waste from where it sits.
2. Damaged Water Supply
While not following through on the pledge to not dump is bad, it wouldn't be half as awful if only they had dumped that industrial waste in actual wasteland. In a misguided attempt to hide their dumping, Russia wound up putting this hazardous material in a "water protected zone," thereby putting Sochi's drinking water at risk.
Whether that waste actually did any damage to the city's water supply is uncertain, but one thing is definite: the water has been tainted by something.
One journalist took photos of the yellow water that came out of her sink. Not only was she warned not to drink the water, locals advised that she not even touch the water because it "contains something very dangerous."
3. Destroying National Parks
In order to make room for the various Olympic facilities and accommodations, Sochi needed to clear space in natural areas that should have been off-limits. More than 8,000 acres of Sochi National Park were cleared after politicians reversed Russia's laws protecting national parks so that construction could occur.
As a result, rare wetlands were buried in rubble. The inhabiting species of birds, bears and reptiles have fled to unknown locations in search of a new home. Though Russia seems to be following through on its plan to plant three trees for every one it chops down for the Olympics, environmentalists are not pleased with how it is being implemented. By scattering these new trees in various places, Russia is not addressing the problem of deforestation or reestablishing habitats for the creatures that have been displaced.
4. Jailing Environmental Activists
Worse yet, Russia has made it clear that anyone who speaks out against all of these environmental assaults will feel its wrath. Though the effort to crack down on gay rights protesters has received most of the media attention, Putin's posse has also aggressively pursued environmental activists to prevent any demonstrations that could "interrupt" the Games.
Yevgeny Vitishko, one of Sochi's most prominent eco-activists in recent years, has been arrested on trumped up charges. Just before the Olympics, Vitishko was arrested for "swearing in public" and will be kept in jail on the charge for more than two weeks. It's clear that Russia is inventing a way to keep Vitishko behind bars to prevent him from discussing these issues during the actual Olympics. Vitishko is joined in prison by fellow green protestor Igor Kharchenko, who was also mysteriously arrested for nebulous reasons just before the Games.
