Plácido Domingo is described by Kultur as "the most important person alive in opera." He is one of the best tenors of the past 50 years, with more than 100 recordings to his credit; he is currently general director of Los Angeles Opera and Washington National Opera; he is a respected conductor; and he's the founder of Operalia, the annual international voice competition.
At 72, there's not much else for him to do, right? Wrong. The world-famous tenor, whose motto is "If I rest I rust," has jumped the fence and released a new album of Verdi arias for baritone. It will be released in North America on Aug. 27, but CBC Music is offering a First Play below.
The album stream has expired. Plácido Domingo's Verdi is available on iTunes.
Having nearly exhausted the operatic repertoire for tenor — his website lists 129 roles — Domingo has been poaching in baritone territory lately. CBC Radio 2 listeners may have heard his gripping performance of Giorgio Germont in the Metropolitan Opera's broadcast of La Traviata last season, under the direction of Yannick Nézet-Séguin.
In his New York Times review, Zachary Woolfe wrote, "Gray-bearded and bespectacled, he looked every inch the bourgeois patriarch. He sang ardently and (at 72!) with extraordinary volume and presence."
Domingo includes Germont's Act 2 show-stopper, "Di Provenza il mar, il suol," on his new album, along with baritone arias from Verdi's Macbeth, Rigoletto, Un ballo in maschera, Don Carlo, La forza del destino, Ernani, Simon Boccanegra and Il Trovatore. (Domingo has previously sung the principal tenor role in each of these operas.)
Joining baritone Domingo are the Cor de la Generalitat Valencíana, the Orquestra de la Comunítat Valencíana and conductor Pablo Heras-Casado. The album is available for pre-order on iTunes.

Most women have very little experience with the health care system before becoming pregnant. Unless you have had a serious or chronic illness before, your experience accessing health care is probably limited to occasional health check-ups and visits to a health care provider when you are sick or have other concerns. For many women, their first experience being hospitalized is for childbirth.
The U.S. health care system is complex and, unfortunately, has major problems that can sometimes make people sicker rather than healthier. The maternity care system is no exception. Getting excellent care and having a safe, healthy, and satisfying pregnancy and birth experience can be challenging. It is much more likely when you know your maternity care options and participate actively in all aspects of your care and your baby's care.
This section of the website provides the basic information women need to make sense of our maternity care system and learn how to navigate it to achieve a healthy and safe birth.

A highly fatal, acute hemorrhagic fever, clinically very similar to MARBURG VIRUS DISEASE, caused by the EBOLA VIRUS, first occurring in the Sudan and adjacent northwestern (what was then) Zaire; The natural reservoir and mode of transmission of the virus are unknown, but secondary infection is by direct contact with infected blood and other body secretions; (From Dorland, 28th ed)--------------------------------------incubation is 3-18 days; major hemorrhagic and hepatitis effect, minor encephalitis effect, absent nephropathy;------------------------------ Outbreaks of Ebola hemorrhagic fever are associated most often with the introduction of the virus into the community by one infected person, followed by dissemination by person-to-person transmission, often within medical facilities; incubation 6 days, which is commonly followed by two clinical phases; Early symptoms include fever, asthenia, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting, anorexia, abdominal pain, headaches, arthralgia, and back pain; Bilateral conjunctivitis, nonpruritic rash, and sore throat with odynophagia, when present, suggest Ebola virus infection; The second phase, characterized by hemorrhagic manifestations, neuropsychiatric abnormalities, and oligouria, portends a worse outcome; Mortality during outbreaks typically exceeds 50%; Clinical diagnosis is challenging, because the presentation is nonspecific;
ELISA, PCR, and virus isolation can be used to confirm Ebola virus infection within a few days of the onset of symptoms; [Rudolph"s Pediatrics 2002]

Volkswagen Polo R Line revealed
Volkswagen pulls the wraps off its first R-badged Polo. This one has a 1.2-litre turbo...
Volkswagen has introduced the Polo R Line. Despite its 'R' badging - something usually reserved for VW's high performance cars – it's only available with the company's turbocharged 1.2-litre TSI petrol engine.
Its 105bhp and 129lb ft help the car reach 60mph in 9.7sec, on the way to a modest 118mph top speed. Its green figures are impressive, with a claimed 53.3mpg and CO2 emissions of 124g/km. A six-speed manual gearbox is standard.
The R Line builds on the specification of the Polo Match, with the addition of styling touches inside and out.
On the exterior, the R line has a unique styling pack, consisting of sportier front and rear bumpers, a gloss black grille, deeper side sills and 16in 'Mallory' alloy wheels. Inside, there are sports seats and a leather trimmed steering wheel, both with R Line badging.
Standard equipment includes climate control, a tyre pressure monitor and remote central locking.
The Volkswagen Polo R Line is on sale now, with prices starting at £15,195 for the three-door, rising to £15,815 for the five-door variant.

In case you need a refresher, Danielle gave birth to her second child, Jayleigh Rae, two weeks ahead of her due date on June 7, and she's been on a mission to drop her pregnancy pounds ever since.Danielle gained a fair amount of extra weight during her pregnancy (after all, she was eating cheesepuffs for two!), but nowadays she's a mere shadow of her former self.
That's right, Danielle has dropped a whopping 70 pounds in 10 months thanks to a combination of healthy eating and exercise, and we're blown away by how amazing she looks!
Danielle's no stranger to dramatic weight loss. She dropped 50 pounds after her first pregnancy with her son, Jamie Jr., and she claims that her new look is all thanks to a weight-loss shake called Visalus, which Danielle drinks twice a day.
"Still need major ab toning to get my deflated baloon [sic] in check from being pregnant," Danielle posted to Instagram along with a photo of herself rocking a sports bra. "but ive lost 70 pounds. IM PROUD."
This girl has every reason to be proud of herself. Seventy pounds in 10 months is almost unheard of — Danielle looks amazing! Are you impressed by this former reality star's weight loss journey? Sound off below and tell us what you think of her new look.

The @nytimes would like you 'climate-change deniers' to die now, please.
To quote SM Stirling: the Times apparently feels that your national destiny should be fertilizer.
To quote SM Stirling: the Times apparently feels that your national destiny should be fertilizer.
This morning I caught an editorial from the New York Times which just blew my mind. In light of the news that the CBO has identified 2.5 million full time jobs that will go away as a result of Obamacare, the paper of record let everyone know that this is working as intended. The Congressional Budget Office estimated on Tuesday that the Affordable Care Act | Read More »
Seriously, that's the image that the New York Times is going with in their editorial "The Koch Party." EXPLICITLY. Only a few weeks into this midterm election year, the right-wing political zeppelin is fully inflated with secret cash and is firing malicious falsehoods at supporters of health care reform. …honestly? I just stopped reading at that point. Mostly because I got distracted by the possibilities; | Read More »
It's neat how the New York Times is dredging up an old NSA website as news. I guess it beats writing about Obamacare breakins or Benghazi.
And it's interesting how Democrats don't seem to want to dig into the Healthcare.gov or Benghazi failures but seem ready to blame Target for crimes against them.
So the Obama administration wants us to believe that taking gun databases from the states is legal, Healthcare.gov is legal, but NSA is illegal. Sure, buddy.Read More »

It's been an odd way to end the year, for sure. Several stories seem to be cropping up about now that call into question the standards and practices of journalism and what ethical lines are drawn in the profession.

The New York Times is starting to get a bit nervous about this health care law thing. Ginger Chapman and her husband, Doug, are sitting on the health care cliff.

One does not expect to find insightful, cogent, or fair commentary on the editorial pages of the New York Times.

Is Obama our nation's first AWOL president? The answer is painfully obvious. While researching this piece I Googled, "Obama is AWOL president" and over one million results popped up in 0.33 seconds – overwhelmingly from conservative-leaning media.

ELKTON, Md. -- Elkton police say a man became stuck to a department store toilet seat after someone spread glue on it.
It happened at the Walmart in Elkton. Officials refused to say how long the man was stuck before he was able to get help.
Police say emergency workers removed the seat from the toilet and took the man out with seat still attached to him. The seat was removed at the emergency room at Union Hospital.
Police say the incident is a second-degree assault case that may have been a random prank.

Col. Edmund T. Williams died at his residence at Shrewsbury on Friday (May 18th) of
chronic bronchitis and old age, in the 84th year of his age. The funeral was
held in Christ church on Monday, and was largely attended by the relatives
and friends of the deceased. The pall-bearers were Lyttleton White, of Eatontown;
Robert White, of Shrewsbury; Wm H. Grant, of Middletown; and Theodore Sickles, Robert
Parker, and John E. Allaire, of Red Bank. the interment was made at Christ
church burial ground.
Col. Williams was born at Colt's Neck on October 30th, 1804, his father and
mother being Tylee and Elizabeth Hartshorne Williams. In 1807 his parents removed
to the farm at Shrewsbury of which Col. Williams died possessed. Col. Williams
was educated at the West-town boarding school, Chester county, Pa., where he
remained three years, and concluded his studies under John Gummere, at Burlington,
New Jersey. he there combined the labor of a farmer with the profession of a surveyor.
The death of his father having made a portion of the homestead farm his own, he
purchased the remainder, and since that time devoted himself to the business of an
agriculturist, though his later years were given merelt to the superintendence of
its varied interests. Col. Williams was, in 1836, married to Lucy, daughter of
Captain Wm. Carpender, of New York. Aside from his farming occupations, Col. Williams
led a life of much activity as a surveyor, having been engaged in the settlement of
many estates, and frequently filled the office of executor and administrator.
He acted since 1838, the year of incorporation, as secretary of the Shrewsbury
mutual fire insurance company, and was at one time director of the Red
Bank steamboat company and the Red Bank and Eatontown turnpike company.
He was also a member of the Monmouth county agricultural society. As a Whig,
he, in 1837-8, represented his district in the legislature, and was the incumbent of
various township offices. He was active in the promotion of all religious and moral
projects, and for years was identified with Christ church, of Shrewsbury, in which he
was senior warden and an earnest worker.

A caring man and a 'gas character'
Published 19/12/2012 | 21:02
The late Frank Dowling
FRANK DOWLING of Castle Countess, Tralee, died peacefully and suddenly on Thursday, December 6, while recounting on the phone to one of his sons the most congenial evening he had just enjoyed at St John's Parish Church, where the O'Shea brothers and friends serenaded him in song marking his recent 90th birthday (November 24).
That important occasion (in Frank's assessment, one of the best of his life) had been celebrated with family, neighbours, friends, old FCA comrades and seasoned fellow members of the debating circle which convened each Sunday evening in Kerins O'Rahilly GAA Club House to dissect the weekend sporting events and engage in their weekly ' ball hopping' joust.
Having grown up in Liscannor in County Clare, Frank in his early 20s traversed the mouth of the Shannon and took up residence in Tralee as District Administrative Office of the old LDF, which later became the FCA. His future wife, the lovely Mary Rohan, who had spent her childhood in her native Aughacasla, Castlegregory in West Kerry, quickly put her eye on the dashing and handsome young Clare man and the next 70 years for Frank were a love affair with Mary and with Tralee and Kerry more generally.
The great affection which Frank had for the people of the town and county was warmly and fully reciprocated. Frank was liked and respected for his integrity and wisdom and his uncanny ability to look into the heart and soul of things and to know instinctively what was needed.
Happily, his extraordinary insightfulness was matched with great decency, generosity, kindliness and gentle humour. In quietly helping out and offering guidance and support to people – whether family members, Army comrades, numerous generations of FCA members or friends – Frank was characteristically delicate, understanding and always an absolute gentleman and never judgmental.
In allowing himself to engage a bit more robustly with his fellow master ' ball hoppers' (a sport not for the fainthearted), Frank was helped by his quick-wittedness, impeccable timing and an ability usually to remain a move or two ahead of his principal challengers, Mike Griffin and Seamus McCarthy.
However he was always scrupulous in just nicking verbally, without ever actually hurting or wounding. His wit and humour earned him the accolade (high honour in Tralee) of being a 'gas character'.
Frank's children were the immediate beneficiaries of his wisdom, kindness, decency and generosity. Having done a sound job with his wife Mary in raising their three sons, Frank in recent years went on in turn to prove an outstanding and much-loved father–in law, grandfather and latterly great grandfather.
He was a special and indeed an essential and giving man and all are the better for having known him. While his family and many friends would have dearly liked to enjoy Frank's delightful company for a bit longer, there is the great consolation that he led a full and wonderful life. He was given a tremendous send-off by so many people from the county and beyond, including the cousins from West Kerry, Liscannor and Foynes and the big Defence Forces contingent led by the Chief of Staff, Lt. General Seán McCann.
Military honours were rendered for Frank at the funeral services by his colleagues from the organisation of National Ex Servicemen/ Women (O.N.E) and by Permanent Defence Forces (PDF) personnel from Sarsfield Barracks, Limerick and Collins Barracks, Cork.
Frank will be sadly missed by his wife Mary, children Kieran (a former Ambassador to India and currently Ambassador to Slovenia, Croatia and Bosnia-Her zegovina) , Brian (a Colonel, Director of the Army Ordnance Corps), Niall (a Commandant, also in the Ordnance Corps), loving family, grandchildren, greatgrandchildren, daughters-sister-in law, nephews, nieces, relatives and many friends, including those who admirably showed him such kindnesses and solidarity in his last years.

"MUST WATCH: NJ Teacher SCHOOLS state legislative committee on 2nd amendment"
Gee, I hope she has tenure.
Of course, the progressives — knowing themselves to be on the side of good and right — would never associate themselves with the atrocities of other leftists across the 20th century whose long-term aim was disarmament of the citizenry.
Right up until such time as they can smell the Utopian finish line. At which point, Bill Ayers can perhaps step in and explain, rationally, pragmatically, dispassionately, why such things need be done — and how it will in the end bring about a greater good on earth.
At which point, the Two Minutes of Hate will commence nightly, and those not cowed will be removed from the civil equation, either through re-education or, in the most severe (but necessary) cases, by other means.
Heaven holds no great appeal without Hell as its foil. And if getting to Heaven means banishing the evil to Hell, what's a good Statist to do in the name of his godhead?

June 2008
Active Appearance Models (AAMs) typically only use 50-100 mesh vertices because they are usually constructed from a set of training images with the vertices hand-labeled on them. In this paper, we propose an algorithm to increase the density of an AAM. Our algorithm operates by iteratively building the AAM, refitting the AAM to the training data, and refining the AAM.We compare our algorithm with the state of the art in optical flow algorithms and find it to be significantly more accurate. We also show that dense AAMs can be fit more robustly than sparse ones. Finally, we show how our algorithm can be used to construct AAMs automatically, starting with a single affine model that is subsequently refined to model non-planarity and non-rigidity.

Snorkeling with Darwin
Jeff Austen '09 (July 15, 2008, Bartolome, Galapagos Islands)—At the beginning of our evolution class, Dr. Krohne stated that Charles Darwin was initially uninterested in the Galapagos. For the first two days of our journey, I had to agree with Darwin. The black volcanic islands were almost barren in comparison to the Tiputini, the rainforest station we stayed at the week before.
However, after spending seven days exploring the Pacific waters and islands even further, I now appreciate why they hold such an elevated place in evolutionary theory. The black-colored marine iguanas, blue-footed boobies, and enormous Galapagos tortoises have all demonstrated these islands have more to offer than I originally thought.
The best sighting of the week that allayed my initial feelings for the Galapagos occurred on Thursday afternoon. After exploring North Seymour for bird life, we landed near Bartolome island, a desolate place blacked with volcanic rock. To conclude the day's activities, we snorkeled off Bartolome's sandy beaches. Here Dr. Rogers and I observed a 10 foot Manta Ray swimming idly in the clear Pacific waters, a humbling experience to say in the least. Later on, in the same afternoon, I swam with Galapagos penguins and a white-tipped shark. It is literally quite amazing how much biodiversity these waters hold.
Imagine what Darwin would write if he could have snorkeled in the Galapagos. What else would he have included in The Origin of Species?

If you screw up, they will trash you. There is no PR fix.
by Josh Bernoff
A Twitter account called @BPGlobalPR has been trashing and mocking BP for a while now. The new development is that he's blogging about what he's doing and why.
What should BP do about this?
BP's first job is to fix the spill. Any other activity now is pointless and won't help.
The PR department at BP's job is describe, accurately, what they are doing. Any attempts to spin are pointless and will backfire.
BP could sue and get the Twitter account closed, maybe. The publicity about this suit would hurt more than help. If they were successful, the tweeter would just pick another handle. Hence: do nothing.
BP is twittering and there is a very nice Facebook page for Deepwater Horizon Response. Better to have them and connect through them than not, but every drop of oil that spills or lands on beaches does more damage than any amount of social outreach. This problem cannot be solved by social technology.
Social can't solve problems that come from customer (or environmental) abuse. Your company has problems, too, although it can't possibly be worse than BP's problem. If lots of your customers are upset, for every dollar you spend on fixing your image or social outreach, spend ten or a hundred dollars on fixing your customer problem.

Item # CUT0020
Don't worry though, we have a lot more Cable Locks in stock than that.View Similar Products
Cutter Drome Cable Lock $0.00
Reviews & Community
Piece of Junk
The locking mechanism doesnt work, I hope I just got a defective one.
below is a video demonstrating what the problem looks like.
Needs to be longer
Got this for a great deal off of ChainLove.com. Very limited as to where I can use it because it's so short. In my parking garage I have little to work with so I have to lock it through the fork.
Absolute crap
This thing is terrible. I bought two. The first, the key broke so I had to cut the lock off (which was pretty easy). The second, the key no longer turns in the lock, so it's worthless as well.
People can't believe that it's a lock. seriously the most intimidating bike lock I have ever come across. If I were a thief, the bike locked up with this would not be the one I would steal.
Great lock
I've been using the Cutter Drome Cable Lock for (give or take) a year and a half now and it's been the perfect lock for quick trips around town... to the grocery store, brunch, etc. When I know I'm not going to be off my bike for too long and don't want to carry my Cutter Commuter U-Lock around, I just sling this bad boy over my shoulder and I'm good to go. If I know my bike will be locked up for longer periods of time, at night, and/or in sketchy areas, I'll use this in conjuction with the u-lock.
Cuts in an instant
Had mine locking my bike in a parking garage and the next morning it was cut. Looked at the security cameras and was cut with a small pair of bolt cutters. It is just a super thin wire surrounded by aluminum. Crap Lock. Get a U-Lock!
The Cutter Drome is the perfect bike lock. I have had this lock for almost a year and the lock still works like new. The size is what does it for me. It is big enough so that I can lock 3 bikes together around a pole or street sign when with friends but with one bike you can lock it to anything. It is a perfect size to sling around a shoulder even if you are wearing a backpack. If you would rather it be inside your pack then you can twist it up to half its size. Bottom line is this thing is thick and beefy, nothing to worry about when your bike is locked up with this guy.
sturdy cable, efficient lock
This is my main lock; I used to use an OnGuard mini U with a cable for the wheels. This is much more convenient, although I don't know about relative security. Carry it looped twice around the headset. It is too short to carry bandoleer style across the chest. If there was one complaint, it would be that the lock should be a bit longer, making it possible to secure two bikes (frame & front wheel) side by side in a rack
not so good
bike stolen... cut with tin snips. this lock is is just a 1/4 cable with a housing and appartently could hold up..
how do you know what the cable was cut with? it wasn't tin snips. possibly a bolt cutter? it would be hard to cut this with bolt cutters even, with the shielding over the cable
Cutter Drome Cable Lock
This lock is quite thick, and the plastic exterior finish won't scuff or scratch your bike. I thought it might be slightly longer (100cm = 39.5") but it is long enough for the job most of the time. I think the lock itself is nice, I'm just a bit let down by the keys. One key was slightly bent when I got it, and I feel like I have to be careful not to bend or snap the key when I'm unlocking. Other than that this is good, beefy lock, especially for the price.
I got this lock on Bonktown a few weeks ago and have used it several times...I would use it more, but I just don't need it all of the time...Anyway, it's definitely a "user friendly" lock. You can sling it around your shoulder and you won't even feel it. It can be rolled up to a very compact storing size. It's very well built. Only one "con"...the lock tumbler can be stubborn (at times) and you may have to try once or twice to get it to work... don't get me wrong, it does work...just not silky smooth. I recommend this as a lock you can transport and use on a daily basis...oh yeah, it is well protected, will not scar or mar your ride...
Bomber Lock..
This lock is solid. I refer to it as the Urban Anaconda. Puts your bike in a strangle hold and keeps it away from slippery fingered, bike stealing bastards. The lock and key setup is dope. Easy to operate after multiple tall boys. Good price..
How long is this?
How long is this?
Dr. Jones is right - the Cutter Drome lock fits comfortably over your shoulder rambo style. The inner diameter measures 38". The inline style of the locking mechanism gives this bike lock a rounded shape that fits well when slinging the lock over your shoulder.
Stephen - do you mean 38" diameter or circumference? If 38" diameter, then the cable would be almost 10 feet long (38" * pi), which would be unusually long for this type of cable.

Dog Spotlight:
Hi My name is Sherlock.......
4 months
40 pounds
The Woodlands, TX
Special Considerations for Adoption:
My name is Sherlock. I am a really smart puppy (~14wks). I wound up at the shelter and I really wanted out. This person came to rescue German Shepherd Dogs so I held my ears up as high as I could and looked really, really cute. I think I'm a German Shepherd Dog, ah and a Black Mouth Cur mix,. Yeah, that's right, I'm a GSD/BMC .
Anyway, here's what I found out about BMC's: Black Mouth Curs are tough, resilient working and hunting dogs.Fearless and relentless in the wild, Black Mouth Curs happen to be very sensitive and gentle with people: Around children, they tend to tone-down the play and become more mild and protective. They are outgoing, affectionate and very protective of familymembers. Black Mouth Curs are smart and curious canines.
And when I grow up, I'm gonna be just like that. Now I'm learning not to pee in the house. UPDATE: I did it! I learned not to pee in the house! I'm working on walking on a leash and basic commands. Mostly, I play and get kisses.
Someone came along and said I look like an Anatolian Shepherd. Wow, that would be cool too, cool being an Anatolian Shepherd/Black Mouth Cur and uh, GSD mix.
If you want an awesome fur kid, adopt me!
NOTE: Sherlock will be ready to adopt on March 3, 2012.

Dialysis patients are required to take monthly laboratory tests. This is to ensure proper monitoring of our body's blood and chemistry levels. These tests are also used by doctors as reference on how patient's respond to dialysis, if they are eating right, their responsiveness to EPO shots via their hemoglobin levels, and so on. I have been through this routine tests all my dialysis years and still going through with it. My lab test schedule for the month of May would be performed on my next dialysis session, this coming Thursday to be specific. My past blood test, since I started my treatment, were fairly okay. There are certain blood levels that dialysis patients and doctors use as reference and it's quite different from the ones normal people use.
Let me state this as an example:
- A normal person's hemoglobin range: 12 – 14 grams per deciliter (g/dL)
- A dialysis patient's hemoglobin range: 10 – 12 grams per deciliter (g/dL)
To elaborate this further, I have prepared a list of the common laboratory tests that I take along with their acceptable ranges. The blood levels below are provided for your reference and are to be used as guidelines. Levels may vary upon individual differences or depending on the dialysis unit;s laboratory procedures. It is always advisable to talk to your doctor, nurse, and dietitian about your blood levels.
- Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN) : 60 – 110 mg/dL
- Creatinine : 8.0 – 20.0 mg/dL
- Potassium (K) : 3.5 – 5.0 mEq/L
- Calcium (Ca) : 8.5 – 10.5 mg/dL
- Blood Sugar (fasting) : 60 – 100 mg/dL
- Blood Sugar : less than 140 mg/dL
- Alkaline Phosphatase : 25 – 100 units/L
- Phosphorus (P) : 2.3 – 4.7 mg/dL
- Sodium (Na) : 135 – 145 mEq/L
- Albumin : 3.8 – 5.5 gm/dL
- Total Protein : 6.0 – 8.0 gm/dL
- Hematocrit (HCT) : 33% – 36%
- Hemoglobin (Hgb) : 10 – 12 gm/dL
Basically, through this monthly lab exams, a dialysis patient, doctor, nurse, and dialysis unit's medical staff can monitor the patient's progress while undergoing treatment. For me that has been going through with it for quite a long time now, and for other's as well, it may sound routinely boring. But I hope this article may serve as reminder on how vital this monthly blood tests are to a dialysis patient.

Tottenham star: Win over Reading can spur us on for Lazio and QPR clashes
11:36 19 September 2012
EMPICS Sport
Tottenham star Gylfi Sigurdsson believes that the 3-1 win over Reading has given them a boost ahead of hosting Lazio and QPR.
The north Londoners failed to win in the first three league games but Jermain Defoe's brace along with a strike from Gareth Bale gave the Lilywhites the win over the Royals.
"It's fantastic to get our first win and now we can look forward, work hard again in the week and prepare for a hard game against Lazio and then QPR," Sigurdsson told the club's official website.
The midfielder knows that the Italian giants will provide a stern test in the Europa League opener.
"They are a good team, it's great to play in Europe and we're looking forward to that game, trying to get off to a good start," he added. "It will be important to get three points at home."

Life Coaching For Kids
Life coaching involves helping people identify and accomplish personal milestones. Life coaches enable clients to set and achieve goals by implementing a variety of tools and techniques. Life coaches do not act as psychologists or business consultants, instead they draw inspiration from several disciplines, including sociological, psychological, personal development, career counseling, mentoring, and various subtypes of counseling. The earliest example of life coaching can be traced back to Benjamin Karter, a former college football coach who turned into a motivational speaker between 1970 and the early 1980s. Life coaching can benefit people of all ages, including kids facing everyday issues, including bullying, lack of self-esteem, poor self-image, parental divorce, stress, anxiety, and forming friendships.
Bullying, a form of unwanted behavior against an unsuspecting victim, may present itself in an abusive form of treatment that negatively affects others. The aggressor usually targets a victim who appears different from the crowd. Differences in race, religion, gender, sexuality or physical ability usually cause hostility among peer groups. Bullying may involve verbal harassment, physical assault, and coercion through peer pressure. A power struggle may persist between the aggressor and the target if the abuse goes unpunished.

Self esteem encompasses ingrained beliefs, such as "I am likeable" and "I am worthy," that elicits positive and negative emotions, depending on the nature of the individual's mental state. Self-esteem embodies the totality of self evaluation or it may only affect one aspect about oneself. Self-esteem is a long-lasting personality characteristic that can sway in different directions or remain idle if left unaddressed.

Self Image:
An individual's self image embodies the imaginary picture, usually resistant to change, which not only depicts physical attributes, such as height, weight, gender, hair color, and style of dress, but also the internalized beliefs of previous judgments projected onto oneself from others. In other words, the self-image reflects your own thoughts of what others think about you. Self-image usually consists of how one sees himself or herself, how others see the individual, and the perception of how others see him or her. A warped self-image may reflect inaccurate representations of one of the three factors listed above.

Coping with Parental Divorce:
Parental divorce includes the separation of a marital couple, including the husband and wife, which cancels the legal responsibilities of marriage and other bonds related to matrimony between consenting adults. Divorce cuts those ties in order to allow each party to legally depart from each other. Divorce involves several issues, including child support, re-distribution of property, child custody, and familial support. The legal process of divorce varies from country to country and state to state. It has more than material consequences as it can affect how children perceive relationships. Divorce also makes it hard for kids to focus on living their happy lives. It may affect the way the child performs in school, their friendships, and how they perceive their mother and father.

Stress involves the inability of a biological organism, including humans and other animals, to respond and cope with mental, physical, and emotional demands. These demands can come from internal or external sources. Signs of stress can manifest as cognitive, emotional, physical, and behavioral abnormalities, such as poor judgment, pessimism, loneliness, isolation, depression, acne, aches and pain, and even constipation. Children may withdraw from social gatherings, eat or sleep too much, procrastinate in their school work, or display nervous habits like nail biting.

Anxiety manifests as a psychological or physiological state of internal discomfort. Anxiety usually affects the somatic, emotional, cognitive, and behavioral components of an individual. Anxiety means to "vex or trouble," by inducing mental stress, such as uneasiness, fear, worry, or dread. It is considered to be a normal reaction to an internal or external stressor. Anxiety only becomes problematic if it persists over a long period of time. Children may display signs of an anxiety disorder if they have been through a traumatic experience without professional guidance to unwind and cope with it.

Friendship, an interpersonal relationship that includes a close association, ranges in degrees of intimacy . Friendships usually spans over the course an individual's life. In fact, building solid and healthy friendships starts at an early age and often determines one aspect of an individual's well-being. The interaction between friends may also range in a degrees of trust. True friendships usually consists of wanting to help others, show and share caring feelings, honesty, mutual understanding, positive reinforcement, and the ability to feel free to be oneself around others.

A Raw Food keeper that Ill be using all the time!
I just tried this new coconut opener from Coco-Jack! For those of you who shy away from opening coconuts for fear of slicing your hand off or if you just have a hard time knowing how to cut into them while saving the coconut milk from splashing all over your kitchen counters, you'll want to check this handy little tool out!
What I really love is the perfect round hole it leaves in the top of the coconut so that you can easily scrape the meat out and you can also close them up if your not going to be using the whole coconut right away. Love the scoop for the meet also!
Ive tried a lot of coconut knives and other gadgets over the years that promised to make opening my Thai baby coconuts a breeze but they never delivered and I have always gone back to my kitchen knives and hatchets. Ive ruined a lot of knives and my hatchet is pretty intimidating for the faint of heart. It can also make a mess.
Love this! The mat and the bag are pretty cool also… you can buy just the Coco-Jack and a mallet or bundles.
Let me know how you like it if you get one!

The response of structures to external disturbances has long been a primary interest for engineers. Recent efforts to improve the reliability and operational efficiency of structures have employed modeling, control, and monitoring techniques. Significant advances using these techniques are evident in many mechanical and aerospace applications.
In the first part of this talk, a modeling technique is presented, in which simplified models of a complex structure are obtained using only input and output data from actual measurements of structural motion. Compared to other comparable models, these simplified models retain the advantage of simplicity, which is desirable for control purposes, but with much greater accuracy.
The second subject of this talk addresses the development of a new adaptive control method. Here, the control design process accounts for the external disturbances through a feed forward term. An adaptive scheme is developed to update this feed forward gain to guarantee improved control efficiency.
A time domain method for structural health monitoring comprises the third topic of this talk. In this method, the coupling effects of the failure modes are removed by projecting the measurements onto some subspaces. In this way, the presence of damage and the corresponding location are simultaneously determined. Finally, the alternative use of this technique in real time applications is illustrated.
The presentation will conclude by highlighting ongoing and future research projects.

Cherie Currie of the Runaways: We took a lot of sh*t
Cherie Currie may have initially made her mark as the voracious teen vixen of a lead singer for the Runaways, but what stands the test of time even more so than groundbreaking rock 'n' roll, is the strength of a woman who has overcome a lot. It's no secret that the Runaways had such a short run because the rock star lifestyle forced upon teenage girls didn't yield the most positive results. But whether it a tell-all memoir Neon Angel, its major motion picture adaptation, or simply being a mother, Currie has taken command of her experience in every possible way. And fortunately, it still rocks.
Gimme Noise chatted with the punk legend preceding her performance at Girls Got Rhythm Fest this Saturday.
See Also: Girls Got Rhythm Fest returns: The festival comes back for a second year, ruled by punk
Gimme Noise: First things first, you're still making music but are primarily a chainsaw carving artist?
Cherie Currie: Yeah that's basically been it. I've been a chainsaw carver for twelve years, and you know we're just getting the album finished. It's been over two years in the making and it will come out, I believe, towards the end of this summer. But yeah I'm a chainsaw carver; that's what I do.
It looks like it could potentially be pretty cathartic.
It's got some risks, that's for sure. I've been very very lucky but most carvers that I know have taken a blow or two from a chain or two that's broken. You know it can be pretty devastating. I heard about a guy that had been carving for 30 years over on the coast and wasn't using the right bar and it kicked back and hit him in the throat and he was gone in 3 minutes. You can never let your guard down when you are doing this kind of thing.
How do you think things have changed in the realm of gender-specific challenges in the music industry?
Oh it's night and day from what it was back in the '70s. I think also that I was so young and really coming out in such a bold fashion instead of being like, you know, Carly Simon. Don't get me wrong, I love Carly Simon. We just kind of took a lot of people by surprise. Of course, at face value, I understand the criticism looking at the Runaways. I wouldn't have believed it myself if I would have been a record buyer or someone buying a ticket to see it. I really wouldn't have believed it! But today is just leaps and bounds different. It's completely accepted; it's inspiring and it's been proven that it works. All the guys out there, they can't deny it anymore. You can't tell me that the sky isn't blue. Girls are great. Girls rock! Girls are exceptional.
Do you get much outreach from modern bands?
Yeah! Cherry Bomb is one, these are some pretty young girls, and they are also very pretty. They're very exceptional musicians and on-the-rise. I saw an interview with them and that they were huge fans of the Runaways. I remember the GoGo's back in the '80s mentioning that we were an influence and that was absolutely stunning to me. I always kind of felt that we had been sort of passed over. Courtney Love was a huge Runaways fan too. Also I think the movie helped bring a lot of young people into our music, which is great. It's nice to feel like we influenced people. We took a lot of shit, excuse my language. We really did. It's hard to even believe how difficult it was at times, being so young on the road without our parents for months and months at a time. I don't really think people can grasp that because that just wouldn't happen to day, at least not in the same way.
So then what was your perception of being a woman during that time? How has it changed in retrospect?
[pause] You know I can't tell you. Because from when I was just about to turn 16 when I joined the Runaways in 10th grade, I was just starting to become a young woman. And I missed out--I think all of us did--in what would have been normal because we spent the next couple of years on the road. That's a really hard and emotional question for me to answer because if I hadn't of been in the Runaways I would have been able to experience the proms and hit those marks where you really realize that you're growing up. I have a different perception of it if you understand what I mean.
What's the center of your universe today?
Probably my son...no, not probably, definitely. He is 22 and he's a musician and artist, very talented, so just watching out for him and watching him. I guess I have a little bit of a feeling of protection for him and also all of the young people who reach out to me. I certainly don't want them, even though you can't stop people from making mistakes, I don't want them to do it if you can help it. I'm 53 years old. When I was young that seemed really old. Even though I don't feel any different than I did when I was in my '20s, I feel like we have to remind these beautifully wonderful young people that absolutely anything is possible if they want it.
If you could dole out any advice to a young woman today what would it be?
Nothing has to happen right this moment. Don't jump the gun. Don't be pushed into things. Sit back and take the appropriate time to make the right decision in your life. Don't let other people motivate you to hurry up and get it done now, because you always look back and wish you would have taken more time. Weigh the consequences. What most appealed to you about playing GGR FEST?
Really I think it's an honor. I haven't performed since I opened for Joan in 2010 so it will be great to get back out there again. And my son will be with me! He plays in my band.
That's has to be a pretty amazing thing to share.
Oh he is amazing. And he's gorgeous and has a voice like you will not believe. I used to be married to Robert Hayes, the actor from Airplane. He's my best friend. And even though we divorced 15 years ago we are closer now than we ever were when we were married. We made this amazing, gorgeous, sweetest person and he can certainly play guitar and sing I'm really excited for all of the girls to see him [laughs]! It's indescribable to be able to do this with my kid. And I'm just glad that he's such a nice kid.
Well you know what they say: "they're a product of their raising."
[Laughs] He's almost too good.

Inter-agency tip leads to heroin bust in Ravenswood
RAVENSWOOD, W.Va. -- A tip from another police agency led to a major heroin bust in Ravenswood on Thursday. Ravenswood Police Chief Lance Morrison said Ravenswood authorities got a tip from police in Syracuse, Ohio about a local man who might be driving back to the Jackson County community with a load of heroin. Patrolman Joe Cogar stopped a car that fit the description and called in the Jackson County Sheriff's Department drug dog, who allegedly found 44 grams of heroin in the vehicle, Morrison said. Morrison said heroin is selling for $300 to $500 a gram in Jackson County. Josh Caruthers, 22, of Ravenswood, was arrested and faces drug charges, Morrison said. He said police searched Caruthers' apartment and allegedly found marijuana, needles and pills. Caruthers was to be taken to the South Central Regional Jail. "It was really a joint operation between Syracuse police and us," Morrison said. Reach Rusty Marks at firstname.lastname@example.com or 304-348-1215.

How do I login?
We've had many comments from candidates about the missing login page since our redesign in April. We've looked at adding it back (it's available on the Emergency Services pages) but the costs are currently prohibitive unless we can add functions to it for candidates, like the switching of applications.
In the meantime, to log back into an application or to view your details/emails please go to any myjobscotland microsite (select any council link from https://www.myjobscotland.gov.uk/councils) and click on My Account. You will be asked to log-in and from there your full account will open.
You can still search for jobs on the main myjobscotland portal and then once redirected to any of the microsites apply for jobs using your existing account. All details of applications across all of the councils will be accessible.
Please note that the information that you enter onto the system can be split into two parts:
1. Core candidate data – which includes your personal details (Main Details section), Work Experience, Qualifications, References, and Courses. The core data applies to your account and is reused for every application you make through the portal so any changes you make will be stored on your account and pull through to all previous and subsequent applications. So you can update these sections at any time without there being any tick boxes as the tick boxes are only available on a live application ie when an application is at Incomplete.
2. Application specific data – the application specific data is specific to the position you apply to and only relates to one specific job application. These are usually answers to questions that have been set up by the recruiting council/organisation specifically for a job. Although there may be similarities in job application questions for some positions it isn't uniform across the board and therefore this information isn't saved in your account. These sections only open up when you click to apply for a new position or your application status is a live one ie Incomplete.
If you have any other feedback on the site please visit http://mjs.jobs/smfeedback

I would like to register different themed Cv's (with same job history) for different types of jobs which require different skills.
myjobscotland doesn't seem to allow this. Is this possible, after all?
Vincent Madden permalink
Round and round and round and round in circles. I got an email from this site/Renfrewshire Council telling me my application is incomplete, no matter how much I try, I cannot get back into my details, I'm beginning to think you don't want us to apply for these jobs, to many barriers. I should be able to go onto this site and click on a button 'sign in', believe me this works, every other job site does it.

Women's Soccer
News: Women's Soccer Brings High-Scoring Ways Into SCC Opening Win
The Pasadena City College women's soccer team continued a pattern of lighting up the Robinson Stadium scoreboard, scoring four goals in the second half to rout El Camino College (Torrance), 5-1, in the South Coast Conference opener for both teams played Tuesday.
The Lancers (5-2-1 overall) have terrorized visiting teams, especially in their last four matches. PCC is undefeated at home (5-0-1), and scored 22 goals in its last four home matches. The five netted against El Camino marks a new scoring high in 29 SCC matches under third-year head coach Randy Lilavois. The last time a Lancers team scored five in a conference match was back in 2009 v. El Camino College-Compton Center.
In the ninth minute, PCC jumped out in front when Cassandra Orozco headed in a side corner throw-in by Hallie White. The Lancers, limited to only 12 shots, didn't get going again until the ninth minute of the second half. Nancy Nunez sent a perfectly placed corner kick that Cassandra Saavedra headed in for a 2-0 lead. That would spark a run of four straight Lancers' scores in a span of 22 minutes.
In the 64th minute, Nunez was tripped up in the goalie box and was rewarded by blasting in her team-leading eight goal on a penalty kick. Nine minutes later, Saavedra duplicated her last effort with her second goal on a header off another corner kick by Vanessa Capra. Capra closed out the team's scoring in the 76th minute when she somehow redirected with her right foot a laser, airborne pass by Lizbeth Rodriguez for her sixth goal.
"We've played complete games in the past two matches," Lilavois said. "Four of our goals were beautiful passes and perfectly finished. The team knows its playing well, but it was gratifying to not have a letdown in the first conference match. It's going to be a lot tougher as we face some of the state's top-ranked teams. We're up to the challenge."
Goalkeeper Tatiana Sanchez made six saves and has been a steady performer defending the PCC goal. Orozco, White, Bianca Mercado, and Heather French kept the Warriors' offense clogged while frequently making clear outs and preventing ECC scoring opportunities.
Pasadena next hosts East Los Angeles College on Friday, Sept. 28 in a 4 p.m. match at Robinson Stadium.

Top 10 Highest-Paid Coaches in the NHL for 2013
Most hockey fans would agree that any coach is limited by his roster of players. On the other hand, even a team stocked with international talent will only go so far as their coach takes them. The best coaches are those who can get the most out of the players at their disposal. That and a few opportune play-calls per game can be the difference between two points and zero. Coaches who directly influence the game for a victory are an asset to their franchise, and subsequently get paid accordingly. Here are some coaches who get paid the most in the NHL…but are still a value to their organizations.
*Note the NHL doesn't require teams to divulge the actual contract numbers of their teams but these are the most likely top 10 earners in the league according to reports.
10. Patrick Roy – Colorado Avalanche
After 18 years as one of the league's best goaltenders, Patrick Roy will go from stopping pucks in the net to a suit and tie behind the bench as he begins his tenure as the head coach of the Colorado Avalanche in 2013. 'Saint Patrick' is expected to be paid rather handsomely as he has a dual role that includes team Vice President of Operations and is the only coach in the NHL with general manager powers. In fact, Colorado previously tried to lure Roy into becoming their head coach in 2009 when he stated he'd take the job if they paid him $2 million a year for 4 years. They scoffed at the deal then but must've finally decided to bite the silver bullet.

1 million high-risk Android apps will enter the enterprise this year, says Infonetics
Roughly one million malicious or high-risk Android apps are expected to be introduced into the enterprise this year, according to an Infonetics Research's mobile security report, which was based on a survey of decision makers at 103 medium and large enterprises in North America.
Malware threats against Android now exceed threats against PCs, the traditional targets of hackers, according to security firm Sophos. "Android malware can place a company's future at risk by exposing strategic information or stealing passwords," Sophos cautioned.
Verizon's 2012 Data Breach Investigations Report found that 69 percent of enterprise data breaches and 95 percent of stolen data in 2011 were caused by malware.
Despite the risks, around one-third of enterprises currently allow the use of employee-owned devices such as Android smartphones, iPhones, iPads and other tablets, on their networks, according to the Infonetics survey.
A 2012 survey of 671 IT professionals by the Ponemon Institute for security firm Lumension found that 80 percent of respondents believe that mobile devices pose a significant security risk to their networks and system because of their lack of security.
More than half of respondents said that their enterprises receive more than 25 malware attacks every month, and another 20 percent said they do not know how many malware attacks they have per month.
Jeff Wilson, principal analyst for security at Infonetics, predicted that secure socket layer virtual private networks would become the "cornerstone of many enterprise mobile device security strategies because they solve an immediate connection security requirement, are familiar and easy to use, often free, and will likely support additional security and control functions."
SSL VPNs provide secure remote access to an enterprise's networks, data and applications using a web browser.
Whatever approach enterprises take to mobile security, they need to act now, particularly if they do not have a BYOD policy or security product in place to secure personal devices flooding into the workplace.

From the director of "Antitrust" and co-writer of "Flightplan"! Excited yet?! Those are the best endorsements the marketing people could muster for "Reasonable Doubt," a new legal thriller that has managed to get both Samuel L. Jackson and Dominic Cooper into the cinematic jury box.
Written by Peter A. Dowling (responsible for those aforementioned movies) and directed by Peter P. Croudins (who has no other IMDb credits), this overcooked drama follows a rising District Attorney who prosecutes a hit-and-run crime that he actually committed, but throws the case to make sure the wrongfully accused man gets off. The twist? That man is a killer and must be stopped before...well, you get it. Seemingly tailor-made for DVD bargain bins and late night cable runs, this one looks pretty tepid overall and something that even Ashley Judd would've passed on.
"Reasonable Doubt" hits theaters and VOD on January 17, 2014.

Man, that is really pretty!
More labels, dude. Maps are all about the labels.
Hi fellow-mappers, I just entered the guild and thought lets have a go at the challenge... Hope you like the map. I plan to use the map in my campaign so there's a story behind it...
"A Wildfire has emerged and destroyed the northern part of the once beautiful continent of Anthica. This wildfire was released by the ancient Demon Xior Thonta while he was trying to escape his prison. The demon was captured cycles ago in the bowels of the earth by the Elders, while he was trying to acquire control over the World's Seed. Enraged, he melted the core of the planet and tries to escape ever since. Every now and then he manages to crack the walls of his prison and lets out the Wildfire to avenge his imprisonment. With the help of magic the people of Anthica manage to stand against the Wildfire. At least, so far...."
Man, that is really pretty!
More labels, dude. Maps are all about the labels.
Venus Public Transit, Map Of Ceres, Jack Vance's Ports Of Call & Lurulu ... why do I only have 3 maps here?
Very cool, some of the labels are a bit hard to read but that's probably just me.

Really good mapping skills there! You made a really good first draft. Did anyone else see the general outline of Africa?
Hi all, thanks for the feedback. I started labelling more and tried to enhance resolution (however i'm afraid i started off too low res so lesson is to start higher res on my next map). Labelling is painful trying to make them more readble whilst keeping the weathered look. They're not yet what I want but I'll keep experimenting. As for the outline it indeed looks like Africa although I generated it with a fractal tool.
Tried to enhance resolution more and re-did the details. I think this is the final one ... tho somehow it seems one can never completely finish a map...
2 things, both optional, but it's what I would do (and I often overdo things):
1. Increase the opacity on that dark outer glow around your labels, might make them more dramatic.
2. Put a dark outer glow around the border to separate it from the map a tad.
Otherwise, nice.
If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.
-J. Robert Oppenheimer (father of the atom bomb) alluding to The Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 11, Verse 32)
