moreMany narrative accounts of men in combat during World War II have conveyed the horrors and emotions of warfare. However, not many reveal in such an intimate way the struggle of innocent youth to adapt to the primitive code of "kill or be killed," to transform from lads into combat soldiers.
Another River, Another Town is the story of John P. Irwin, a teenage tank gunner whose idealistic desire to achieve heroism is shattered by the incredibly different view of life the world of combat demands. He comes to the realization that the realm of warfare has almost nothing in common with the civilian life from which he has come.
The interminable fighting, dirt, fatigue, and hunger make the war seem endless. In addition to the killing and destruction on the battlefield, Irwin and his crew are caught up in the unbelievable depravity they encounter at Nordhausen Camp, where slave laborers are compelled to work themselves to death manufacturing the infamous V-rockets that have been causing so much destruction in London, and that are expected one day to devastate Washington, D.C.
At the end of the war, the sense of victory is, for these men, overshadowed by the intense joy and relief they experience in knowing that the fighting is at last over.

For shopaholics, Seoul proves to be unimaginable delight offering array of products to consumers. Come and have the best experience of all time in Seoul.

Samaritan Medical Centers pain management center is reassuring patients that the hospitals supply of a steroid used to treat back pain is not a part of a national recall linked to an outbreak of fungal meningitis.
According to a news release, the drug at Samaritan was not provided by the company at the focus of the recall. Since national reports of the fungal meningitis outbreak surfaced, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration investigated the New England Compounding Center, which has since shut down its operations.
Our supply of methylprednisolone acetate is ordered directly from the manufacturer and not from the compounding pharmacy in question, New England Compounding Center, said Joseph Sanzone, the hospitals director of pharmacy.

Azalina Eusope, a 5th Generation street food vendor from Malaysia loves the food of her home. Lhaksa, roti rolls, lacey crepes… oh my. You might not be able to travel the stalls of Malaysia, but you can certainly taste the flavors. And even make them at home.
Azalina was born in a tribal village in Malaysia (called Mamak) in a village on the coast of Penang — her parents grew spices including cinnamon, star anise, and cardamom in her back yard. She always loved cooking and ended up training as a chef. When Azalina moved to San Francisco, she began to reinvent some of her favorite dishes. So many of her friends loved the food that Azalina decided to start a business selling at the Alemany Farmers Market. A year later, she began the program at La Cocina.

Nah, not fresh bread. Not today.
I'm talking about the compost pile... which is overflowing at the moment. We've cleaned up the goat stall where we had built an 8 inch deep litter of bedding. The compost pile has shrunk a good 6 inches in the last couple of days so now there is a bit of room at the top to add the remaining 3 wheelbarrow-loads of bedding that we just dumped next to the bin.
As you can see, it's not really a compost bin. We put this together fairly quickly last summer when time was limited, money was low and the need for a composting system became urgent. But the improvised system seems to work pretty well, we can see on the thermometer that we are having it cooking at 140 degrees, which is fairly hot but normal since we added a lot of fresh stuff lately.
|our current compost system
Apart from compost (which tends to smell funny), we also have very tasty stuff cooking. Yesterday, a friend gave me a really good suggestion as to how to use up some extra milk which I feared was going to go bad. All she had to say was Dulce de Leche, and I was sold on the idea. With 8 cans of Carnation, 3 cups of brown sugar, 3 cups of white sugar and a touch of Brandy, I managed to can 10 jars of this tasty treat. I just let it slowly boil down throughout the day until it was perfect.

"Will migrating to the cloud save me money?" This is a question that comes up fairly often in my discussions with customers. The reality is that there is no clear yes-or-no answer. It depends on a number of factors.
If you're currently looking at cloud adoption for your enterprise and are approaching it with the viewpoint of looking to save money, that is a valid business driver. That being said, a complete replication of your existing data center in a public or private service provider cloud is not guaranteed to save money and from Savvis' perspective isn't the right approach. In a future post I'll talk to some of the common business drivers for cloud adoption that we are seeing.
It's understandable that IT executives are looking at cloud in this way. After all, in the traditional model of IT, as outlined in Figure 1, the business need drives the application and the application drives the infrastructure. So the thought is, regardless of what the infrastructure looks like, as long as it meets the needs of the application, then it should be OK. This together with the idea that public cloud is a multi-tenant environment and so costs are shared across multiple customers leads to the perception that public cloud is cheaper. This isn't always the case.
In an IaaS cloud that paradigm is changed around, as depicted in Figure 2. The business need still drives the application, which still drives the infrastructure, but now the infrastructure has the capability and expectation to meet the business need as well. But it doesn't only have to meet the business need today, it has to meet that need at every point in the future. As we all know, the only thing that is clear about the future, is that it's unclear ... cloudy, perhaps.
A better way to approach the adoption of cloud is to first understand the different types of clouds that are available and what type of workloads would be suitable for each. I plan to write more about this in a future post but to be more specific, the types of questions to consider are:
- Where should you use a private cloud?
- Where should you use a public cloud?
- Where shouldn't you use cloud at all?
- And most importantly, how do you tie all of these different pieces together to form a cohesive solution?
By effectively answering the above questions you will be able to optimize your infrastructure to meet the needs of the application and business. Instead of saving money you will enable your company to be more financially efficient. If correctly planned and implemented a byproduct of this will be lower costs.
Cloud isn't a one size fits all proposition. Your cloud provider should know this.

Central Park, Louisville
Coordinates: 38°13′49.5″N 85°45′45.5″W / 38.230417°N 85.762639°W
Central Park is a 17-acre (69,000 m2) municipal park maintained by the city of Louisville, Kentucky. Located in the Old Louisville neighborhood, it was first developed for public use in the 1870s and referred to as "DuPont Square" since it was at that time part of the Du Pont family estate.
During the Southern Exposition in 1883, 13 of the park's 17 acres (69,000 m2) were temporarily "roofed in" and used to showcase Thomas Edison's light bulb, one of the first large-scale public displays of the light bulb in the world. In 1885 the park was unroofed, and was instead used as an outdoor exposition, with an Edison designed electric trolley line transporting visitors around the park to see such sites as a roller coaster, bicycle trails, and an art museum surrounded by a lake.
By 1904 the entire Du Pont family had moved to Wilmington, Delaware, so they sold the park to the city of Louisville for $297,500. The city enlisted famed architect Frederick Law Olmsted, the man who designed New York City's Central Park and had already designed an entire park and parkway system for the city of Louisville, to plot the new park. Olmsted had a large open air shelter with a colonnade built on top of the hill where the art museum had once stood, along with a wading pool and athletic fields on the side. The original walking trails were kept in place.
In the 1970s the open air shelter was enclosed and used to house a police station and a neighborhood information center. In 1976 an amphitheater and wooden playhouse were built. The new playhouse was used to host the free annual summer performances of William Shakespeare's works, which had been held in the park since 1960. Since 1988 the annual event has been called the Kentucky Shakespeare Festival, and is still free to the public.
In 2004 the park celebrated its centennial.

For what Mitchell is trying to achieve i think its a better match than Mitchell and Tibbs was, thats honestly what i think. The problem as you have said is that the personal antics like the excessive alcohol and dare i say drugs makes him a nightmare to train and will surely ensure he never reaches full potential. Chances are that his chin is cracked, a number of domestic wars and then Katsidis bouncing him around the ring really didnt help. Burns was merely there to smash what was left of it. To this day i dont understand how he cannot make super featherweight, i find it silly and maybe a case in point with regards to his dedication towards his craft. Clearly very talented with quick hands and a bit of power to boot, massive waste of talent unless of course the dark one can weave his magic.

#853: What is your shopping pet peeve?
Click the "CC" buton to view text.
Hello, this is Paul from England. I'm speaking for elllo.org. What's my pet peeve when shopping? I really like shopping, especially I like shopping for clothes. The thing I don't like about shopping is when I'm, I'm trying to walk around and go into the different shops but the city or the shopping center is very, very busy, this really, this really starts to annoy me after a while and I, erm, I start to feel really, really tired by the end of the day. And that's my pet peeve about shopping, OK, how about you?

So disappointed! Spatula is SO SOFT it doesn't do the job it was intended to do - scrape out a jar. When try to scrape the jar, the spatula just bends and you can't get the food out of the jar.

I bought these to use for getting everything out of "canned" goods. The silicone ends are very flimsy and bendable and sometimes will splatter back at you. I purchased these to replace some old ones, but I was still keep the ones I had until there is nothing left of them. I would not recommend these for the "use" I wanted. Bowl scraping is great use.

I'm not sure I agree with what has been said regarding Batman's motivation behind letting the Joker live, especially in comparison to Ra's Al Ghul. In the first movie, it was clear that if Ra's Al Ghul were allowed to live, he would continue trying to destroy Gotham. Realizing this, Batman chose to do nothing to hinder Ra's death. Call it a necessary evil. If he could've let Ra's live and still keep the city safe, that is the choice Batman would have made. However, that was not a logical choice, based on his desire to protect the city from crime.
It's different with the Joker, though. The Joker has no shred of decency or morality in him. He is a living definition of anarchy and chaos. Because of this, he fears absolutely nothing, not even death. This is clearly indicated by his maniacal laughter as Batman seems to let him fall to his death. Killing the Joker would have proved nothing, except that the Joker had won in his effort to bring Batman down to his level. The Joker is clearly disappointed by Batman allowing him to live, as it shows that there is a difference between them.

Don't make fun of AAP: Jairam Ramesh
Asking politicians not to make fun of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), Rural Development Minister Jairam Ramesh Wednesday said the debutant party could take different avatars in states on the "legitimate issues" it was raising.
"We cannot ignore the AAP. Because what they are agitating about -- corruption, austerity in politics, simplicity in politics -- these are legitimate values," he told reporters here.
"Today, the Congress party is thinking about it (AAP). But the BJP (Bharatiya Janata Party) has already lost its sleep due to the AAP. Prakash Karat is saying we are the AAP. If Badals (in Punjab) don't mend their ways, then the AAP will also eat up the Akali Dal. AAP is like Dashavatar. In different states, it can have different avatars," Ramesh said.
In an apparent reference to the Congress's defeat mainly at the hands of AAP in the Delhi Assembly polls, he said: "If we had brought the Lokpal Bill two years ago, we wouldn't have been facing the problems we are facing now."

The 2005 frame showing seven fingers (meaning seven victories) was made during the 92nd Tour de France. American cyclist Lance Armstrong will be stripped of his seven Tour de France titles and slapped with a lifetime ban, a spokesman for the US Anti-Doping Agency told AFP on August 23, 2012. The agency said Armstrong will be banned from cycling for life and lose the Tour de France titles he won from 1999-2005. The decision came after Armstrong decided to discontinue his fight against USADA's charges that he used performance-enhancing drugs.

Do you lean on the left armrest more than the other one ?
When we lean like that, we usually allow our shoulder to rise.
The muscles then get stretched and weakened, and more susceptible to injury. Over time, it happens.
Try flexing your shoulder down when possible, to get better circulation to those strained muscles. And try not to lean on arm rests anymore. You can weaken muscles on both sides.
Try to sit upright, balanced, with no lean in any direction, shoulders relaxed and DOWN, not elevated. Perhaps lean back a touch, from the front edge of your chair, NOT against the chair back, so you feel just a touch of tension in your abs.View Thread
Focus and do your best, where ever that is. If not up to your own standards, work on it. That's how we all improve.
Over-inflated ego ? No. More on the fragile side. 45 years as an amateur athlete, 35 of interest in exercise physiology. 60 being a slim athlete rejected out of hand based on appearance. Its not fun. The fun part of being picked last is when you turn out to be the difference maker, show total dedication and tireless effort, and your team wins and your contribution is integral to it. And hearing, "Thanks, great game". Great to hear it week after week.
Seven years researching heart disease and exercise rehabilitation, and experimenting on myself. Tells me I know a lot more than a whole lot of people. Mainly the ones who have not done it.
Boot camps typically push people too hard, and over do things based on the unfortunate rhyme of No pain, No gain.
Even muscle burn is an indication of a step too far. Would pouring acid in you arteries be a good thing ? Well muscle burn is similar, and unnecessary. It won't kill you today or tomorrow, but its not doing anything beneficial for your blood vessels, and may be doing them some harm long term.
Eat healthy, do well managed cardio with warmup, increase you lifts by 5% every three weeks, and you can quadruple your strength in two years, and never get tired.
Success breeds confidence. My doctor was almost willing to put money on it 7 years ago that I would be dead in 2. I am sure he also would have bet against me playing 16 hours of volleyball in a week at any time. he would have lost both bets.
I know what I know. Based on facts, good research, and good science.
Be around positive people. Someone is negative, ask what the hell is wrong with them. Don't let them get away with it.
Maybe they are having a bad day caused by someone else, and they could use some support.
If the muscle used in a skill have atrophied and weakened, and lack coordination from disuse, what is left is memory of the skill, and confidence that you can do it again. You can "learn" it again faster. By regaining strength and coordination and getting the muscles to do what you want them to do.View Thread
Even light exercise help reduce inflammation from myokines released by active skeletal muscles. Any really hard workout takes from 3 to 5 days for full recovery. Light exercise cuts that time.
Learn about cardiac drift, and use it to just lightly stress your heart. With this kind of training, I can do sports at heart rates that are not thought impossible at my age, and not even be fatigued.
My max heart rate today playing volleyball was 170. Supposedly my max heart rate should be 80% of 220 minus my age. That would be 128. I love being fit. It was very cool last summer to play full court basketball with my heart rate at about 180 for 30 minutes, with people half my age.
I had hernia surgery two months before. Six years before that I had heart bypass surgery.
Don't let just walking be your goal. I'll only walk when I am old. My Mother only walks. She's 91.
Find an activity you enjoy that gets you moving. That's the key.View Thread
Spencer statement that a skill once learned is never lost is dumb. Many skills depend on muscle memory, strength, and reaction times, which can all fade from disuse. Regain a skill by going through the learning process and practice all over again.
Patience and humility will allow you to grow as competent or better than before.
To attract others, be confident, be helpful, be positive. You can't have confidence backed by ... not much. Perhaps pick a challenging new skill, and devote adequate practice time to it.
Stay with it and truly grow in competence.
I have done rehab and recovery from massive heart disease, and learned pretty much the entire mechanism of how it works, how to prevent it, and foods that help block or reduce it. All from real research. I love helping others understand what they may have, what to tell or ask their doctors, and explaining why I do everything I do for my health. I am in excellent health. The past six days, I rowed 4 1/2 miles, played 2 hours of volleyball, played 6 hours of volleyball, played 4 hours of volleyball, took a day off and only walked a mile and a half, then today played 2 more hours of volleyball in addition to another 1 and 1/2 mile walk. Not bad for 60.
People at work see my consistent healthy eating habits, and eventually approach me and ask how and why I can tolerate such a consistent and very healthy diet. With no exceptions, every person who has engaged me in conversation on this has altered their eating habits gets more exercise. Many have told me how much better they feel.
At volleyball, despite being the oldest on the court, I work hard to improve and be a valued addition to almost any team. Even if the weak link, I go after and am successful with many defensive plays you may rarely see others attempt. I love to compete. New players get the idea to TRY, and to do their best. Its not about being great, just do what you can to be helpful. Sometimes it helps the most to say nothing, but be a model of how you hope others will try to play.
Rowing I show others how to be more efficient, and be faster using less energy. Everyone loves to improve. Help yourself, help others. With anything. Being appreciated is fantastic. Take yourself there.View Thread

Zeb Colter not returning
Some bad news if you're hoping to see Zeb Colter back on television. The belief right now is that his return is unlikely to happen because WWE simply has no desires to put a lot of focus on Jack Swagger. He is now considered someone that is lost in the shuffle. Despite being a former world heavyweight champion, his role nowadays will be that of a filler. Job security for Swagger is said to be pretty low, as management feel he is replaceable.

Kane and Zeb Colter
A friendship in professional that does not get discussed frequently is the one between WWE stars Kane and Zeb Colter. In a recent interview, the former stated that the latter was the person that helped him get into the business. Glen Jacobs spent some time networking with people in the industry, and he eventually got to meet with Colter at an independent wrestling event in Illinois. Colter then pointed him to the Dean Malenko wrestling school.

Zeb Colter at Wrestlemania
In case you have not noticed, Zeb Colter has been absent from Monday Night Raw and Smackdown for quite some time now. WWE did an injury angle backstage to explain his absence. At the time, no one was sure of when he would be making his return. Word is now spreading that we could see him making a comeback at Wrestlemania. He would accompany Jack Swagger to the ring for the Andre the Giant memorial battle royal.

Zeb Colter return
According to rumors, there have been no timetable set backstage by WWE for the return of Zeb Colter. While officials still view him as a valuable asset for the company, there is no sense of urgency in bringing him back, especially since there are no plans for pushing Jack Swagger from now until Wrestlemania. Since that is the case, there is a good chance that they might hold off the well spoken manager until that point in time.

Britain's "equality minister," Lynne Featherstone, said that the Church of England's and Catholic Church's language in opposition to faux (same-sex) marriage "belongs in the Dark Ages." Britain's "justice and policing" minister, Nick Herbert, opined that opposition to legalized faux marriage is "not acceptable." Meanwhile, Denmark decided two years ago that it was acceptable to force churches to perform faux marriages. You see, Denmark is further down the road of secularism than is the UK. And why should this matter to us?
For one thing, point out many observers, America is on that road, too.
As for the Danish "evolution," to use Barack Obama's terminology, Lifesite News' Ben Johnson wrote in 2012:
The nation of Denmark has voted to force churches in the established Evangelical Lutheran Church to perform same-sex "marriage" ceremonies inside their sanctuaries, although one-third of all the denomination's priests say they will not participate in such rituals.
Danish parliament voted by an overwhelming 85-24 margin to compel churches to carry out unions for same-sex couples that are identical to heterosexual marriage celebrations.
...Since 1997, homosexuals have been able to get "married" in a blessing ceremony after the normal church service.
Under the new law, priests may opt out of performing the "wedding" service for theological reasons. However, a bishop must arrange for a replacement.
And with bakers now being forced to bake wedding cakes for same-sex couples and the Obama administration applying its contraception mandate to even religious businessmen, many worry that it won't be too long before the United States follows the Danes' lead. For instance, a prospective military chaplain writing last year under the pseudonym "Sergeant Thomas O'Neal" (for fear of persecution) at American Thinker warned:

About the Virtual Cruise
Sail through the Panama Canal as Cruise Critic's virtual correspondent Steve Faber cruises on Regent Seven Seas' Mariner. Faber details on- and off-the-ship experiences aboard this all-suite luxury vessel as the ship sails from Ft. Lauderdale to Los Angeles and visits Grand Cayman, Puntarenas, Huatulco and more along the way. One special feature of Mariner's Panama Canal transit? The ship crosses this historic waterway first during the daytime, stops to let passengers off for an excursion, and then reboards them and continues cruising through the locks at night.
Steve is a longtime contributor to Cruise Critic and, now, a regular contributor to Cruise Critic's Cruise News & Reviews. Beyond our publications, his work has appeared in a myriad of outlets, including Cruise Travel, the Miami Herald and in The Total Traveler Guide to Worldwide Cruising.

Panama Canal & Central America
Panama Canal & Central America
Regent Seven Seas
Day 1: Tuesday, Ft. Lauderdale
What goes around comes around: The last time I transited the Panama Canal (and the only time, for that matter) was in 1998 aboard Holland America's Maasdam. I disembarked that cruise with two wishes for the future: one that I could return for a repeat visit through this marvel of engineering, and the other to do the trip in better weather (on my previous sailing we were dogged by the fringes of Hurricane Gilbert).
So it wasn't surprising that I would leap at the chance to do it again, especially since the vessel would be Regent Seven Seas Cruises' Seven Seas Mariner. Till now I hadn't had the opportunity to sail this gracious upscale line which rates so high in the rankings of every publication and survey (Cruise Critic's included). A mid-size, 46,000-ton ship, Mariner carries only about 700 guests, with an extremely expansive guest-to-space ratio of 67, much of it generated by Mariner's all-suite design; the bottom-end stateroom measures over 300 square feet, and every suite has a private balcony, a major boon to transiting the canal. Add to that the ship's reputation for fabulous service and cuisine served in four distinctly different restaurants.
On this voyage, our itinerary is a bit more of a mixed bag. Of course, on both sailings the full canal transit was the centerpiece, but on my Maasdam cruise we had had more port calls in Central America, visited less often by typical cruise itineraries; I would have liked to have had the opportunity on this sailing to visit the great Mayan ruins at Tikal (in Guatemala) or those in Copan, Honduras.
On the plus side, our itinerary on Mariner would do something highly unusual: break up the canal transit into two pieces. We'd go though the first set of locks (at Gatun), then anchor in Gatun Lake and tender to the Gatun Yacht Club for shore exploration and refreshments before weighing anchor and sailing through the remainder of the locks into the Pacific during nighttime hours, a new experience for me which I enthusiastically looked forward to.
One other aspect of this cruise that I highly anticipated was the large number of sea days: five out of a total itinerary of 14 days. Sea days are wonderful, relaxing respites from high-energy touring, but usually differ little one from the next. So, unless something unusual pops up on a sea day (a school of giant squid, or a chorus line of mermaids doing a can-can), my plans are to condense our 14 days into ten reports, and spare the reader yet another tale of being waited on hand and foot while reclining on a poolside chaise!
Our departure was midweek, so the port was relatively quiet -- the only ships there were Mariner and Carnival's Legend, and, even though we arrived during "Embarkation Rush Hour" (half past noon), we were spared the usual seemingly endless parade of giant motor coaches clogging the port entrance. After showing our cruise docs and passports to port security we were directed to the baggage drop-off at Pier 25, where we were met by a chipper lady in RSSC livery, who greeted us, offered to answer any questions, and escorted a porter back to the car to offload the bags.
After parking the car we returned to the terminal, and, unexpectedly, to long check-in lines moving at a pace that could be overtaken by Alaska's Mendenhall Glacier. This surprised me -- that in an era of accelerated check-in processing and Internet pre-based registration and on a ship of just 700 passengers we waited in line for a solid hour. Finally, at 1:30 p.m., we finally set foot on the polished marble floors of Mariner's atrium reception area.
On this all-suite ship, cabins are not ready until 2:30 p.m., so we were directed to the Mariner Lounge, where we could enjoy a complimentary glass of sparkling wine. Snaking through the lounge was yet another endless line of guests, who were, we were informed, waiting to book reservations in one or both of Mariner's optional, reservations-only restaurants. I couldn't understand the wisdom of queuing up immediately on arrival when we would have two full weeks onboard to plan and enjoy meals. Sure enough, we were informed by helpful stewards that booking on the first afternoon was totally unnecessary, and that reservations could easily be made during the next couple of days or at any time by dining room personnel in Compass Rose, the ship's primary dining venue, or, for passengers in the top eight categories of accommodations, by their butlers. We waited comfortably in the Mariner Lounge, though passengers could of course also head to the pool deck for a light lunch served at the grill station.
On the dot of 2:30 p.m. we ventured to our Category SSA (Seven Seas Aft) suite, a lovely corner unit at the aft end of the ship with a separate bedroom and living room. The color palette is comprised of pastel blues, golds, taupes and mauves. The warmth of the room is accentuated by ample use of cherry-hued wood accents, trim and wall units. Like much of the ship, decor has an open feel to it and is somewhat spare in terms of artwork.
But the feature that gets the most raves -- especially on a ship such as this where guests tend to dress at the upper end of the dress code -- is the walk-in closet. In our case, it was more of a walk-through closet, which connected the bedroom and bath.
After settling in and dealing with the obligatory boat drill, we decided it was time we made the acquaintance of our butler, who could be summoned any time between 6:00 a.m. (7:00 a.m. on sea days) and 10:00 p.m. by pressing the "Butler" button on the suite's telephone. Within five minutes Saurabh, dressed in full butler uniform, appeared at our door, ready to introduce himself and to take any orders or requests we might have. We asked him to request dining reservations for us in Signatures, the classic French eatery operated under the auspices of Le Cordon Bleu, and for Latitudes, the cutting-edge world cuisine restaurant. Saurabh promised to get back to us tomorrow with the confirmations. He also inquired as to our liquor preferences, as all passengers aboard get two complimentary bottles of the libation of their choice, which appeared in our suite sometime during dinner.
Unpacking, for once, was a pleasure because we discovered that there actually was drawer and shelf space we hadn't used, a first for us. Then we headed to Horizon, Mariner's secondary entertainment lounge (bingo, teas, quizzes, etc.) for a pre-dinner drink. Set at the very aft end of the ship with panoramic views to the rear and sides, its decor, like that throughout the vessel, reflected a "Nautical Deco" theme, offering a warm ambience with ample expanses of wood and the unusual, sharp geometric shapes and curves emblematic of that era. Unlike many ships nowadays which vary decor, style and themes from room to room, Mariner is remarkably consistent in style from stem to stern.
We found the room inviting and welcoming, with a great spread of hors d'oeuvres and snacks (egg rolls, steak mini-skewers, seafood toasts and assorted cold canapes), which we appreciated, having opted not to bother with an actual lunch after overindulging in the canapes earlier while waiting for our suited to be readied. But by now we were getting hungry again. At 7:30 p.m. we made our way to the ship's main restaurant, Compass Rose.
Compass Rose is Mariner's primary restaurant, and is a bit of a paradox, offering elements that are both contemporary and retro. It follows the modern trend of open seating; you choose your dining time (between 7:00 and 9:00 p.m.) and whether you wish to dine alone or with friends, or to join or be joined by other guests. On the retro side of the equation, the room is placed and styled like dining rooms of the past, a single deck in height, centered fore and aft. Its other most notable retro feature is a smoking section, unusual for ships so heavily targeted to the U.S. market.
When we asked to be seated at a table for two, we were told that it would not be possible immediately, that on the first night out, nearly all passengers ask to sit alone (having not made friends onboard as of yet). The only option, other than waiting for a table to open, was to take a couple of seats in smoking. We were told by the apologetic maitre d' that after the first night, getting a table would be much easier.
There is no doubt that Mariner's culinary pedigree is French, judging by the menu choices and predominantly Gallic serving staff (who exhibited, on this first night out, what many Americans complain about French waiters: a bit of impatience and a lack of warmth). But all was forgiven with the appearance of our menu choices, which were beautifully presented and drop-dead delicious. The menus are broken down into three sections: a la carte, specialty choices (low carb, light and healthy, vegetarian, no added salt, and "simplicity," i.e., comfort food), and a degustation (tasting) menu -- a six-course fixed menu of small portions. My wife tried the tasting menu, which included a seafood appetizer, consomme, steamed mussels, a palate-cleansing Kahlua Coffee sherbet and a main course of chicken breast stuffed with prosciutto and mozzarella.
The degustation menu is made up of some choices exclusive to it and some from the regular menus, and it is important to note that you can "mix and match," which is what I did, substituting a spinach salad for the mussels and a rib eye steak for the chicken breast. All were delicious.
Sated with dinner, we made our way forward to the main show lounge, the Constellation Theater, which has one of the best layouts we've experienced at sea. This room has absolutely superlative sightlines, with nary a support pillar on the lower level. Tonight, RSSC's longtime cruise director Barry Hopkins offered the typical "Welcome Aboard" show, to be followed by a stand-up comic. Though our intentions were good, and we even elected to order double espressos in lieu of post-prandial liqueurs, the exhaustion of a full day of travel caught up with us, and with the thought of our suite's down comforter calling to us, we made our way back to the suite for a well-earned rest.

MMA Pioneer Joe Camacho Dies At 41

Barcelona Goes Crazy For The Lakers The Lakers arrived in Barcelona, Spain to huge crowds and lots of media at their practice inside Palau Blaugrana stadium. Lakers star Pau Gasol is from Spain.
ROSEMEAD (CBSLA.com) — Popular MMA fighter Joe Camacho died suddenly on Monday, one day after fighting in a match, shocking fans and friends alike.
Camacho, 41, died at Queen of the Valley hospital in West Covina after he began experiencing difficulty breathing. He had taken part in a competition in Long Beach on Sunday.
The MMA pioneer and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu instructor had opened a school of his own this year, and a vigil was held Monday night by fans and students.
"Good guy, who really cared about the community," student George Valdez said. "I've got to stress that so much, because a lot of people become something and they forget where they came from. Not Joe."
Gathered students, as well as those who grew up knowing Camacho, praised his work as an instructor.
"He taught us how to win and lose," friend Orlando Aspericueta said. "And every time we lost, we still won."
While coroners have not identified the exact cause of death of the former Featherweight, the possibility of a heart attack has not been ruled out.
Camacho's family is unaware of any outstanding health issues that may have led to Camacho's unexpected death.
"I'm so proud of him for who he's become," fiancee Maggie Arechiga said. "His last words to me were 'I love you'."

Files and rasps are shaping hand tools that reduce the amount of time you'll have to spend sanding.
Files are ideal for shaping, trimming and smoothing anything made of metal, wood, or plastic and have closely spaced, hardened steel grooves.
Rasps are files made specifically for wood. Their coarse, individual teeth, punched up from the steel surface, are perfect for grating away at timber.Read More
Stanley Metal Body Surform Planer Files are fitted with a replaceable standard cut blade. Ideal for shaping most types of material, the blade can be set in two positions and used as either a plane or a file. Replaceable surform blades are available in two different sizes.
The surform blades have precision sharpened and hardened teeth producing a consistent depth and quality of cut and do not require adjusting.

MCC Earns National Recognition for Patient-Centered Care
NCQA Patient-Centered Medical Home™ standards emphasize enhanced care through patient-clinician partnership
WASHINGTON, DC— On June 24, 2015, The National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) announced that Mendocino Coast Clinics of Fort Bragg, California has received NCQA Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) Recognition for using evidence-based, patient-centered processes that focus on highly coordinated care and long�]term, participative relationships.
The NCQA Patient-Centered Medical Home is a model of primary care that combines teamwork and information technology to improve care, improve patients' experience of care and reduce costs. Medical homes foster ongoing partnerships between patients and their personal clinicians, instead of approaching care as the sum of episodic office visits. Each patient's care is overseen by clinician-led care teams that coordinate treatment across the health care system. Research shows that medical homes can lead to higher quality and lower costs, and can improve patient and provider reported experiences of care.
"NCQA Patient-Centered Medical Home Recognition raises the bar in defining high-quality care by emphasizing access, health information technology and coordinated care focused on patients," said NCQA President Margaret E. O'Kane. "Recognition shows that Mendocino Coast Clinics has the tools, systems and resources to provide its patients with the right care, at the right time."
To earn recognition, which is valid for three years, Mendocino Coast Clinics demonstrated the ability to meet the program's key elements, embodying characteristics of the medical home. NCQA standards aligned with the joint principles of the Patient-Centered Medical Home established with the American College of Physicians, the American Academy of Family Physicians, the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Osteopathic Association.

Help Put Leaves on Our Dental Tree!
Our Dental Tree has deep roots. It started out as a Halloween decoration, and then it was decorated for the holiday season. With the new year came a new idea from our dental assistant Carol Linville. What if each leaf on the tree represented a child who came in for a dental check-up or a fluoride treatment? The tree grew more beautiful as more and more children's smiles became more and more beautiful!
We keep adding new leaves every day, and seeing the tree makes everyone smile. Why not bring your child in to have a dental check-up and add his or her very own leaf to the tree? We'd love to see you!

Making Resources of Secured Java EE Applications Accessible
For protected Java EE applications, you'd normally want to make certain resources, such as the welcome page, accessible without user authentication. Accomplishing that with OpenSSO Policy Agents involves only a simple procedure.
Part 2 of a recent series on Sun Developer Network guides you through the steps. The article also contains an overview of the three types of single sign-on (SSO): same-domain SSO, cross-domain SO, and Federation.Part 1 describes how to protect applications with authentication before access. Part 3, coming up in early 2009, will show you how to allow only certain users to access predefined resources. Stay tuned!

Rep. Gabbard raises nearly $150,000 in 1Q
First-term congresswoman, so far, has no opposition

text: I had the chance to closely compare a 2 x 9 Sora front derailler with a 2 x 9 Tiagra. They appear to be identical except for the finish on the die cast portion; the Tiagra is polished, the Sora dull. My postage scale, good to 0.1 ounce, could detect no difference. I surmise that the on-bike performance of these two would probably be the same. At what model level do the incremental differences between models become more noticeable in Shimano front deraillers?
