WeatherstripOn most Mustangs, the Mustang Weatherstrip will, over time, become coarse or brittle and will eventually start breaking apart and falling off in chunks. This decay limits the effectiveness of your Mustang weatherstripping, meaning water can easily get into your Mustang Interior, causing puddles, stains, and other damage. The only way to fix this problem is to replace the damaged and worn weatherstrip with brand new Mustang weatherstripping from CJ Pony Parts.
One of the most common areas where the Mustang weatherstrip can fail is around the Mustang Doors. This is due to the constant opening and closing of the doors and windows and the brief exposure to the elements followed by extended periods where the moisture can get trapped between the Mustang weatherstrip and sheet metal. CJ Pony Parts offers individual pieces of Mustang weatherstrip for the doors or complete door weatherstrip kits for many Mustangs.
Mustang weather strip is also found around the windows, the trunk lid, the hood and other areas on your Mustang Body and Sheet Metal. There is also Mustang weatherstripping for convertible Mustangs, which needs to be sealed up tightly when the top is up. CJ Pony Parts does offer numerous kits that are specific to your model and style of Mustang, so you can replace your Mustang weatherstripping all by yourself. Generally, replacement isn't a very difficult project but can get time-consuming, especially if the old Mustang weatherstrip is in extremely poor condition, meaning it can be very difficult to remove.
Individual Mustang weatherstrip pieces are also available for owners who have a much smaller project. Ordering new Mustang weatherstripping is very easy-just visit the CJ Pony Parts website or contact their sales team.

D.H. Lawrence, in full David Herbert Lawrence, (born September 11, 1885, Eastwood, Nottinghamshire, England—died March 2, 1930, Vence, France), English author of novels, short stories, poems, plays, essays, travel books, and letters. His novels Sons and Lovers (1913), The Rainbow (1915), and Women in Love (1920) made him one of the most influential English writers of the 20th century.
Youth and early career
Lawrence was the fourth child of a north Midlands coal miner who had worked from the age of 10, was a dialect speaker, a drinker, and virtually illiterate. Lawrence's mother, who came from the south of England, was educated, refined, and pious. Lawrence won a scholarship to Nottingham High School (1898–1901) and left at 16 to earn a living as clerk in a factory, but he had to give up work after a first attack of pneumonia. While convalescing, he began visiting the Haggs Farm nearby and began an intense friendship (1902–10) with Jessie Chambers. He became a pupil-teacher in Eastwood in 1902 and performed brilliantly in the national examination. Encouraged by Jessie, he began to write in 1905; his first story was published in a local newspaper in 1907. He studied at University College, Nottingham, from 1906 to 1908, earning a teacher's certificate, and went on writing poems and stories and drafting his first novel, The White Peacock.
The Eastwood setting, especially the contrast between mining town and unspoiled countryside, the life and culture of the miners, the strife between his parents, and its effect on his tortured relationship with Jessie all became themes of Lawrence's early short stories and novels. He kept on returning to Eastwood in imagination long after he had left it in fact.
In 1908 Lawrence went to teach in Croydon, a London suburb. Jessie Chambers sent some of his poems to Ford Madox Hueffer (Ford Madox Ford), editor of the influential English Review. Hueffer recognized his genius, the Review began to publish his work, and Lawrence was able to meet such rising young writers as Ezra Pound. Hueffer recommended The White Peacock to the publisher William Heinemann, who published it in 1911, just after the death of Lawrence's mother, his break with Jessie, and his engagement to Louie Burrows. His second novel, The Trespasser (1912), gained the interest of the influential editor Edward Garnett, who secured the third novel, Sons and Lovers, for his own firm, Duckworth. In the crucial year of 1911–12 Lawrence had another attack of pneumonia. He broke his engagement to Louie and decided to give up teaching and live by writing, preferably abroad. Most importantly, he fell in love and eloped with Frieda Weekley (née von Richthofen), the aristocratic German wife of a professor at Nottingham. The couple went first to Germany and then to Italy, where Lawrence completed Sons and Lovers. They were married in England in 1914 after Frieda's divorce.
Sons and Lovers
Lawrence's first two novels, first play, and most of his early short stories, including such masterpieces as Odour of Chrysanthemums and Daughters of the Vicar (collected in The Prussian Officer, and Other Stories, 1914), use early experience as a departure point. Sons and Lovers carries this process to the point of quasi-autobiography. The book depicts Eastwood and the Haggs Farm, the twin poles of Lawrence's early life, with vivid realism. The central character, Paul Morel, is naturally identified as Lawrence; the miner-father who drinks and the powerful mother who resists him are clearly modeled on his parents; and the painful devotion of Miriam Leivers resembles that of Jessie Chambers. An older brother, William, who dies young, parallels Lawrence's brother Ernest, who met an early death. In the novel, the mother turns to her elder son William for emotional fulfillment in place of his father. This section of the original manuscript was much reduced by Garnett before publication. Garnett's editing not only eliminated some passages of sexual outspokenness but also removed as repetitive structural elements that constitute the establishment of a pattern in the mother's behaviour and that explain the plural nouns of the title. When William dies, his younger brother Paul becomes the mother's mission and, ultimately, her victim. Paul's adolescent love for Miriam is undermined by his mother's dominance; though fatally attracted to Miriam, Paul cannot be sexually involved with anyone so like his mother, and the sexual relationship he forces on her proves a disaster. He then, in reaction, has a passionate affair with a married woman, Clara Dawes, in what is the only purely imaginary part of the novel. Clara's husband is a drunken workingman whom she has undermined by her social and intellectual superiority, so their situation mirrors that of the Morels. Though Clara wants more from him, Paul can manage sexual passion only when it is split off from commitment; their affair ends after Paul and Dawes have a murderous fight, and Clara returns to her husband. Paul, for all his intelligence, cannot fully grasp his own unconscious motivations, but Lawrence silently conveys them in the pattern of the plot. Paul can only be released by his mother's death, and at the end of the book, he is at last free to take up his own life, though it remains uncertain whether he can finally overcome her influence. The whole narrative can be seen as Lawrence's psychoanalytic study of his own case, a young man's struggle to gain detachment from his mother.
The Rainbow and Women in Love
During World War I Lawrence and his wife were trapped in England and living in poverty. At this time he was engaged in two related projects. The first was a vein of philosophical writing that he had initiated in the "Foreword" to Sons and Lovers and continued in "Study of Thomas Hardy" (1914) and later works. The other, more important project was an ambitious novel of provincial life that Lawrence rewrote and revised until it split into two major novels: The Rainbow, which was immediately suppressed in Britain as obscene; and Women in Love, which was not published until 1920. In the meantime the Lawrences, living in a cottage in remote Cornwall, had to endure growing suspicion and hostility from their rural neighbours on account of Lawrence's pacifism and Frieda's German origins. They were expelled from the county in 1917 on suspicion of signaling to German submarines and spent the rest of the war in London and Derbyshire. Though threatened with military conscription, Lawrence wrote some of his finest work during the war.
It was also a period of personal crisis. Lawrence and Frieda fought often; Frieda had always felt free to have lovers. Following a 1915 visit to Cambridge, where he met Bertrand Russell, Maynard Keynes, and other members of the Cambridge secret society known as the Apostles, Lawrence began to question his own sexual orientation. This internal conflict, which was resolved a few years later, is evident in the abandoned first chapter of Women in Love.
In The Rainbow, the first of the novels of this period, Lawrence extends the scope of Sons and Lovers by following the Brangwen family (who live near Eastwood) over three generations, so that social and spiritual change are woven into the chronicle. The Brangwens begin as farmers so attached to the land and the seasons as to represent a premodern unconsciousness, and succeeding generations in the novel evolve toward modern consciousness, self-consciousness, and even alienation. The book's early part, which is poetic and mythical, records the love and marriage of Tom Brangwen with the widowed Polish exile Lydia in the 1860s. Lydia's child Anna marries a Brangwen cousin, Will, in the 1880s. These two initially have a stormy relationship but subside into conventional domesticity anchored by work, home, and children. Expanding consciousness is transmitted to the next generation, Lawrence's own, in the person of their daughter Ursula. The last third of the novel describes Ursula's childhood relationship with her father and her passionate but unsuccessful romantic involvement with the soldier Anton Skrebensky. Ursula's attraction toward Skrebensky is negated by his social conventionality, and her rejection of him is symbolized by a sexual relationship in which she becomes dominant. Ursula miscarries their child, and at the novel's end she is left on her own in a convalescence like Paul Morel's, facing a difficult future before World War I. There was an element of war hysteria in the legal suppression of the book in 1915, but the specific ground was a homoerotic episode between Ursula and a female teacher. Lawrence was marked as a subversive writer.
Women in Love takes up the story, but across the gap of changed consciousness created by World War I. The women of the title are Ursula, picking up her life, still at home, and doubtful of her role as teacher and her social and intellectual status; and her sister Gudrun, who is also a teacher but an artist and a free spirit as well. They are modern women, educated, free from stereotyped assumptions about their role, and sexually autonomous. Though unsure of what to do with their lives, they are unwilling to settle for an ordinary marriage as a solution to the problem. The sisters' aspirations crystallize in their romantic relationships: Ursula's with Rupert Birkin, a university graduate and school inspector (and also a Lawrence-figure), Gudrun's with Gerald Crich, the handsome, ruthless, seemingly dominant industrialist who runs his family's mines. Birkin and Gerald themselves are deeply if inarticulately attached to each other. The novel follows the growth of the two relationships: one (Ursula and Birkin) is productive and hopeful, if difficult to maintain as an equilibrium of free partners. The other (Gudrun and Gerald) tips over into dominance and dependence, violence and death. The account is characterized by the extreme consciousness of the protagonists: the inarticulate struggles of earlier generations are now succeeded at the verbal level by earnest or bitter debate. Birkin's intellectual force is met by Ursula's mixture of warmth and skepticism and her emotional stability. The Gerald-Gudrun relationship shows his male dominance to be a shell overlying a crippling inner emptiness and lack of self-awareness, which eventually inspire revulsion in Gudrun. The final conflict between them is played out in the high bareness of an Alpine ski resort; after a brutal assault on Gudrun, Gerald wanders off into the snow and dies. Birkin, grieving, leaves with Ursula for a new life in the warm symbolic south, in Italy.
The search for a fulfilling sexual love and for a form of marriage that will satisfy a modern consciousness is the goal of Lawrence's early novels and yet becomes increasingly problematic. None of his novels ends happily: at best, they conclude with an open question.
Later life and works
After World War I Lawrence and his wife went to Italy (1919), and he never again lived in England. He soon embarked on a group of novels consisting of The Lost Girl (1920), Aaron's Rod (1922), and the uncompleted Mr. Noon (published in its entirety only in 1984). All three novels are in two parts: one set in Eastwood and sardonic about local mores, especially the tribal ritual of finding a mate, the other set in Europe, where the central figure breaks out of the tribal setting and finds what may be a true partnership. All three novels also end with an open future; in Mr. Noon, however, Lawrence gives his protagonist Lawrence's own experience of 1912 with Frieda in Germany, thus continuing in a light-hearted manner the quasi-autobiographical treatment he had begun in Sons and Lovers. In 1921 the Lawrences decided to leave Europe and go to the United States, but eastward, via Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) and Australia.
Since 1917 Lawrence had been working on Studies in Classic American Literature (1923), which grew out of his sense that the American West was an uncorrupted natural home. His other nonfiction works at this time include Movements in European History (1921) and two treatises on his psychological theories, Psychoanalysis and the Unconscious (1921) and Fantasia of the Unconscious (1922).
Lawrence wrote Kangaroo in six weeks while visiting Australia in 1922. This novel is a serious summary of his own position at the time. The main character and his wife move to Australia after World War I and face in the new country a range of political action: his literary talents are courted alike by socialists and by a nationalist quasi-fascist party. He cannot embrace either political movement, however, and an autobiographical chapter on his experiences in England during World War I reveals that the persecution he endured for his antiwar sentiments killed his desire to participate actively in society. In the end he leaves Australia for America.
Finally reaching Taos, New Mexico, where he settled for a time, Lawrence visited Mexico in 1923 and 1924 and embarked on the ambitious novel The Plumed Serpent (1926). In this novel Lawrence maintains that the regeneration of Europe's crumbling postwar society must come from a religious root, and if Christianity is dead, each region must return to its own indigenous religious tradition. The Plumed Serpent's prophet-hero, a Mexican general, revives Aztec rites as the basis of a new theocratic state in Mexico whose authoritarian leaders are worshiped as gods. The Lawrence-representative in the story, a European woman, in the end marries one of the leader-gods but remains half-repelled by his violence and irrationality. After pursuing this theme to its logical conclusion in The Plumed Serpent, however, Lawrence abandoned it, and he was reduced to his old ideal of a community where he could begin a new life with a few like-minded people. Taos was the most suitable place he had found, but he was now beginning to die; a bout of illness in 1925 produced bronchial hemorrhage, and tuberculosis was diagnosed.
Lawrence returned to Italy in 1925, and in 1926 he embarked on the first versions of Lady Chatterley's Lover and wrote Sketches of Etruscan Places, a "travel" book that projects Lawrence's ideal personal and social life upon the Etruscans. Privately published in 1928, Lady Chatterley's Lover led an underground life until legal decisions in New York (1959) and London (1960) made it freely available—and a model for countless literary descriptions of sexual acts. The London verdict allowing publication capped a trial at which the book was defended by many eminent English writers. In the novel Lawrence returns for the last time to Eastwood and portrays the tender sexual love, across barriers of class and marriage, of two damaged moderns. Lawrence had always seen the need to relate sexuality to feeling, and his fiction had always extended the borders of the permissible—and had been censored in detail. In Lady Chatterley's Lover he now fully described sexual acts as expressing aspects or moods of love, and he also used the colloquial four-letter words that naturally occur in free speech.
The dying Lawrence moved to the south of France, where in 1929 he wrote Apocalypse (published 1931), a commentary on the biblical Book of Revelation that is his final religious statement. He was buried in Vence, and his ashes were removed to Taos in 1935.
Poetry and nonfiction
The fascination of Lawrence's personality is attested by all who knew him, and it abundantly survives in his fiction, his poetry, his numerous prose writings, and his letters. Lawrence's poetry deserves special mention. In his early poems his touch is often unsure, he is too "literary," and he is often constrained by rhyme. But by a remarkable triumph of development, he evolved a highly spontaneous mode of free verse that allowed him to express an unrivaled mixture of observation and symbolism. His poetry can be of great biographical interest, as in Look! We Have Come Through! (1917), and some of the verse in Pansies (1929) and Nettles (1930) is brilliantly sardonic. But his most original contribution is Birds, Beasts and Flowers (1923), in which he creates an unprecedented poetry of nature, based on his experiences of the Mediterranean scene and the American Southwest. In his Last Poems (1932) he contemplates death.
No account of Lawrence's work can omit his unsurpassable letters. In their variety of tone, vivacity, and range of interest, they convey a full and splendid picture of himself, his relation to his correspondents, and the exhilarations, depressions, and prophetic broodings of his wandering life. Lawrence's short stories were collected in The Prussian Officer, England My England, and Other Stories (1922), The Woman Who Rode Away, and Other Stories (1928), and Love Among the Haystacks and Other Pieces (1930), among other volumes. His early plays, The Widowing of Mrs. Holroyd (1914) and The Daughter-in-Law (performed 1936), have proved effective on stage and television. Of his travel books, Sea and Sardinia (1921) is the most spontaneous; the others involve parallel journeys to Lawrence's interior.
D.H. Lawrence was first recognized as a working-class novelist showing the reality of English provincial family life and—in the first days of psychoanalysis—as the author-subject of a classic case history of the Oedipus complex. In subsequent works, Lawrence's frank handling of sexuality cast him as a pioneer of a "liberation" he would not himself have approved. From the beginning readers have been won over by the poetic vividness of his writing and his efforts to describe subjective states of emotion, sensation, and intuition. This spontaneity and immediacy of feeling coexists with a continual, slightly modified repetition of themes, characters, and symbols that express Lawrence's own evolving artistic vision and thought. His great novels remain difficult because their realism is underlain by obsessive personal metaphors, by elements of mythology, and above all by his attempt to express in words what is normally wordless because it exists below consciousness. Lawrence tried to go beyond the "old, stable ego" of the characters familiar to readers of more conventional fiction. His characters are continually experiencing transformations driven by unconscious processes rather than by conscious intent, thought, or ideas.
Since the 1960s, Lawrence's critical reputation has declined, largely as a result of feminist criticism of his representations of women. Although it lacks the inventiveness of his more radical Modernist contemporaries, his work—with its depictions of the preoccupations that led a generation of writers and readers to break away from Victorian social, sexual, and cultural norms—provides crucial insight into the social and cultural history of Anglo-American Modernism.
Lawrence was ultimately a religious writer who did not so much reject Christianity as try to create a new religious and moral basis for modern life by continual resurrections and transformations of the self. These changes are never limited to the social self, nor are they ever fully under the eye of consciousness. Lawrence called for a new openness to what he called the "dark gods" of nature, feeling, instinct, and sexuality; a renewed contact with these forces was, for him, the beginning of wisdom.Michael H.

The standard Escape engine is the 2.5-liter making 168 horsepower and 170 pound-feet of torque. It's neither modern nor exciting, but still smooth and competent. It's not quick but it has adequate acceleration. It has a bit less horsepower and torque than the new 1.5-liter, and gets two less mpg.
The new 1.5-liter engine makes 179 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque. The transmission kicks down as much as with the 2.5 liter. For a little engine it makes booming sounds when you floor it, although its bark is bigger than its bite because it's not exactly a rocket. But as 1.5-liter engines go, it's good.
The only engine choice, in our minds, is the EcoBoost 2.0-liter turbo, making 245 horsepower and 275 pound-feet or torque, and zooming to sixty miles per hour in less than seven seconds. It's a big bargain at an option price of about $1500 more. It separates the Escape from almost every other crossover in its class.
The six-speed automatic is a good match for the EcoBoost engines, with programmed shift points that balance fuel mileage (some transmissions are programmed for fuel mileage, which can make them shift at unnatural times). The 1.5-liter and 2.0-liter get paddle shifters, while the 2.5 has a lame sport mode with a switch on the lever to change gears.
All-wheel drive moves power from the front to rear wheels, up to 100 percent in either direction, where ever the traction is needed.
The Escape's handling is sharp and engaging, responsive with great body control, much better than your average crossover. The steering is crisp, weighty and fast. What makes it so good might be the electronic torque vectoring, which dabs the inside front brake in a corner to help the car turn. That's why it's so sharp.
The ride is tightly damped, and sometimes can feel too firm; and with the 19-inch wheels as on the Titanium, it can feel harsh. The smaller wheels bring a smoother ride.
The design and styling of the Escape is very tidy. Compared to the Honda CR-V, it's a few inches shorter with a wheelbase that's nearly three inches longer. Less overhang past the front and rear axles, and a more solid planting on the highway.
The sheetmetal is clean, crisp, pert, stylish, direct and modern. Think outdoorsy millennial.
The cabin is heavily styled with bold contours, swoopy and finely detailed. It makes other compact crossovers boring. But it's also plasticky.
The swoopy dash wraps around so much that it takes some knee and legroom away from the front passenger, but that's still nearly two inches more than the Honda CR-V. Thick A-pillars steal some forward visibility.
The front seats are slim and firm. The electronic parking brake, small as a button, frees up center console space. There's a horizontal vent under the LCD screen that does a good job of heating and cooling the climate controls and kneecaps. There's a CD player on the center stack.
The rakish profile steals some airiness out of the cabin, but there's still enough left. There's plenty of headroom in the rear, at least without the panoramic sunroof that would make it more airy. The Escape is considered a five-seater but there's only room for two adults, with one inch less rear legroom than the CR-V.
The rear seatbacks and headrests flip down easily, creating 68 cubic feet of cargo space. There's an optional two-position load floor, flat or max storage, with an enclosed big square cargo bin that holds 34 cubic feet. The rear hatch can be opened by swinging a foot under the bumper, with the fob in your pocket or purse.
Ford's Sync Connect enables remote access to the car's functions via smartphone.
The Ford Escape is stylish and capable. We prefer the 2.0-liter engine. No flaws in the drivetrain, great handling, but don't expect a soft ride. Can't fit five adults, but can fit a lot of cargo with seats that easily drop.

But there are few companies that lend the kind of instant credibility that National Geographic does, and on Monday, the Pocono Mountains Visitors Bureau and National Geographic unveiled a new map of the four-county area that tourism officials said increases the brand awareness of the region.
The map is a result of a partnership between the two organizations to highlight the region's attractions and showcase its assets.
"The welcome mat is out in the Pocono Mountains," said Pennsylvania's first lady, Susan Corbett, while touring the area as part of the Department of Economic and Community Development's "On the Road" program. "I can't think of a better way to communicate that this and all of Pennsylvania is a beautiful place to visit."
The announcement was made Monday afternoon during a luncheon at Skytop Lodge in Skytop.
This is the 11th regional map National Geographic has produced. The maps are specifically for popular tourist areas. It's also the first in Pennsylvania, Juan Jose Valdes, geographer for National Geographic, said. The company also had developed maps for tourist destinations such as the Florida Keys and the Finger Lakes of New York.
Valdes said the company sought out the Pocono Mountains Visitors Bureau to use the region as a destination for a map in December. The cost to produce the map is about $5,000 — and National Geographic bears that cost. The visitors bureau expended only time in assisting the company.
"The price was exactly what we were looking for," said Carl Wilgus, president and CEO of the bureau. "When National Geographic comes to you, you know you are doing something right."
Valdez said the company sought out the bureau because of its reputation and something tourism officials in the region always tout as one of the biggest drivers of the local industry — its location.
"It's strategically located within reach of the major cities of the East Coast," he said about the region's proximity to New York City and Philadelphia and the millions of people who live within two hours.
The map, a standard fold-out map, has pull-out highlights of 10 of the region's biggest attractions, including Lake Wallenpaupack, Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, Pocono Raceway and Cranberry Bog in Tannersville.
It also highlights the region's history and activities.
More than anything, though, it's a promotional tool that helps advance the Poconos tourism brand, Wilgus said.
"It shows that we are considered a worthwhile destination," he said.
The map will be found on National Geographic's website available for download, and also is available at bookstores such as Barnes and Noble for $11.95.

The European Commission adopted a progress report on renewable energy (in the electricity and transport sectors), highlighting the patchy progress made and the EU's likely failure to reach the 2010 indicative targets. The report explores the reason for this and explains that the new Directive on renewable energy, agreed as part of the energy and climate package and due to enter into force in May, addresses all the concerns highlighted in the report and provides a solid basis for removing barriers and increasing the growth of renewable energy for the next ten years.
The Community established 2010 targets for the share of electricity from renewable energy and for the share renewable energy used in the transport sector. This was done by Directives 2001/77/EC and Directive 2003/30/EC respectively. These Directives require that Member States submit annual reports on progress, and that the Commission review progress every two years.
This latest progress report covers both the electricity and the transport sectors. It notes the uneven progress of the last two years, with some Member States already reaching their targets, and others far behind. It confirms earlier analysis that we are unlikely to reach the 2010 targets in either sector: the EU could reach a 19% share in electricity, rather than 21% and 4% instead of 5.75% in the transport sector.
The report contains a summary table of recent progress (the increase in the shares between 2004/5-2006/7) and the progress made towards the 2010 targets in each Member State. The report also notes the need for further activity in the biomass sector in particular, and recalls the actions undertaken by both the Commission and Member States.
The reasons for the uneven progress are not new. Despite the Commission launching infringement proceedings against various Member States, the current legal framework does not provide an adequate basis for supporting solid growth in renewable energy use. Known barriers remain - surrounding administrative procedures, grid access, and guaranteeing adequate support and measures from Member States to ensure that growth occurs. This report therefore highlights the ongoing need for a new and stronger legislative framework, which is precisely what is provided by the new Directive on renewable energy. This Directive, agreed by Member States and Parliament in December as part of the energy and climate package and due to enter into force in May, addresses all these known concerns.
Further details of members states´ progress in developing renewable energy you will find here.

God of War is about kicking ass and taking names, but fans of the first game will know that it's also about pleasing the ladies. Kratos is a man with many appetites, and I've just discovered that one of them can in fact be addressed in God of War 2. Did you really think the sequel was going to skimp on the inclusion of a sex minigame? Of course not. This is Sparta, not madness!
Hidden "features" in God of War 2
This time the game is slightly hidden, but we'll tell you where to find it. In the very first level after you puncture the eye of the Colossus and he throws you through the roof into the water, climb out of the water instead of swimming to the next area. To your right you'll see two screens, and with a few attacks you can smash them and reveal the very naked women. The screen moves to a peeing statue, you hear the sounds of Kratos enjoying the company of both women, and you get a very graphic... erm... "ending" when with a loud moan from Kratos the statue itself greatly increases the liquid that comes from its privates. I can't make this stuff up.
You'll be awarded with a bunch of red orbs, and you can "play" the game as much as you'd like. Now aren't you glad we have a mature rating?

Hurricane Katia Update
UPDATE: We're still on for most of the US East coast and things are looking almost as good for Europe later next week
Katia is pretty much doing all we could ask of her. The forecast for Florida is looking a bit more muted with the storm taking a more northerly track than some model suggested - we've still got waves in the 3ft@14 range with peaks of around 4ft@14 later in the week. Smaller size and longer period normally equals more barrels so expect mid size (6-8ft faces) waves but plenty of fun to be had. North Carolina gets walloped by the bulk of it - 9ft@15 seconds would equate to a 15-20ft faces at spots that'd handle it on the peak of the swell on Thursday, of course your normal beachy will start to max out some way before this so smaller reforms and shore break barrels are the go outside shelter. New Jersey and New York get in the 8ft@15 range at peak on thursday - again pushing wave face heights potentially into the 12-18ft range on exposed spots that'll handle that size. New England gets waves - but with the storm now called to head almost due north seeing shelter from the bulk of the swell on many beaches. Then up in Nova Scotia we're looking at a Friday peak in the same range as North Carolina.
Over in Europe we're looking at a swell arriving around the 12/13th of September and potentially in the 10ft@16 second+ range. So something for the big wave spots and shelter pretty much everywhere although the probabilities here are a lot lower.
All these numbers are provisional and based on the latest model data - however we've already got long period swell in Florida up to NC and the system moving in the right direction to guarantee some sort of swell for further north on the coast, so while size might vary if the storm deviates from the forecast swell is pretty much certain. The European component relies on the storm taking a forecast track so the chances of a changing call are MUCH higher, we've still got 4 or more days until we'll know for certain that swell is on it's way.
As always your local forecast is updated four times a day with the long range outlook and our specific hurricane forecasts are available.
Two names on the lips of everyone at Quiksilver HQ at the moment we'd think, Irene and Katia. The first has destroyed their hopes of an urban surf music festival on a grand scale, the latter might just make the surf contest (which will still take place) a real event to remember.
Here at MSW HQ we've been neck deep in our swell data archives ever since Quik announced the somewhat controversial decision to run a NY stop on the ASP World Tour. It's not that Long beach doesn't get epic waves, it's just the odds of Huey bringing it within a normal 'CT window that was up for debate, it's a million dollar gamble for a company with a deserved core surf reputation and that's a lot to put on the line. After some number crunching the odds didn't look too bad at all, with a 85% chance of contestable hurricane conditions during the window (looking back over the past 15 years) and a 70% chance of the sort of swell that'll start to make for memorable conditions. It still left the question of what exactly a surf competition does during those 15% of years of competition when conditions don't come off. Fast forward to 2011 and Katia looks set to make that one less issue on the Quik dinner plate.
So the outlook: Right now we have a hurricane strength system mid Atlantic with a track that'll pushing swell in the general direction of Florida and is moving into favourable conditions for increased strength over the next few days. The NHC suggests that the storm will reach major hurricane strength by Sunday. As we've mentioned before, critical to a hurricane's swell generation is its track. Where a normal storm is potentially large enough to generate swell to some extent in all directions, a hurricane normally relies on virtual fetch to create significant swell, the winds are intense but cover a relatively small area, the waves propogating away from the storm before they've had a chance to build to a significant size. The perfect hurricane travels with the waves it creates continuing to add energy to them in this peak direction (interestingly Hurricane Irene was big enough to generate significant swell for Florida despite a relatively poor track). Hurricane Katia is, at the moment, being held on a westerly track by a large high pressure ridge that's almost perfectly placed to increase this virtual fetch before releasing the storm onto a more northerly track avoiding the destructive landfall of Hurricane Irene (which was pinned to the coast sandwiched between two high pressure systems). Of course all this is speculation with plenty of room for variation at this stage but the models we use were actually pinning Hurricane Irene on its correct track 16 days in advance, so while our confidence might be a little higher than is reasonable, the best case at the moment does imply that Hurricane Katia could be something of a classic for significant swell generation for most of the East Coast without making landfall.
The latest model numbers for swell are remarkably consistent from Florida right up to the Quik contest site at Long Beach, we're in the 6-10ft@14 seconds range at peak and this is taken from our normal swell model which tends to run cool on these small, intense storms. Additionally the relatively slow moving storm is going to generate a more slowly building swell that looks like it could plausibly give almost a full week of swell against the short lived 'surfing in the storm' style swell that Hurricane Irene delivered.
We'd caveat all of this by saying that the NHC reckon the 5 day error in their forecasts averages at 250 miles for a Hurricane and we're talking about a swell that's not (on the latest model runs) set to peak for a week. However if things run as stand the closest recent storm would be Hurricane Igor last year, producing good conditions at Long Beach with a similar strong offshore wind that the forecast suggests we'll see again this year from an unrelated low pressure system. Best bet on the latest numbers for the comp - 8-12ft faces in a moderate to fresh offshore wind towards the end of next week. These numbers no doubt will change - stay tuned and check your local forecast for the latest detailed long range numbers.

PACT Teaching Event
The consortium's design of the common assessment, called the Teaching Event, draws from artifacts (lesson plans, student work, and video) created while teaching, accompanied by commentaries that provide context and rationales needed to understand and interpret the artifacts.
The portfolio assessment consisting of 5 tasks - Context, Planning, Instruction, Assessment, and Reflection- documents a brief segment of learning. The integrated tasks are designed to prompt candidates to make connections between these different teaching tasks, and to provide evidence to understand a candidate's teaching of a brief learning segment in some depth. Each of these tasks is based on a set of two to three guiding questions and corresponding rubrics. Academic Language has been added as a separate scoring category drawing from evidence across all of the tasks but scored on two separate rubrics. There are a total of twelve rubrics used by scorers to define the depth and complexity of a candidate's instruction and commentary.
Each rubric defines four performance levels describing practice that requires improvement (1), adequate beginning teacher practice (2), strong beginning teacher practice (3) and exemplary teaching practice (4). Candidates then receive a holistic score (based upon their performance across the tasks) which determines whether or not the candidate has passed the performance assessment. Scoring a 2 or better on most tasks is a passing score.
Spring 2017 PACT due date: Monday, April 17, 2017
by 4PM in Taskstream.

The Kapex is the most advanced sliding compound miter saw in the market today. In the hands of a carpenter, this saw will make cuts that rival the finest trim work being done today. Engineered to be light weight and compact, the KS 120 is the perfect saw for the workshop or the jobsite. Effective dust extraction, precise cuts, easy adjustments, and quality components are some of the features that should make this saw the number one choice of professional tradesmen.
Festool strongly promotes the importance of dust extraction when working with power
tools. For this reason, you can save instantly on the purchase of a Festool Dust
Extractor when bundled with a Festool power tool of your choice. Packages not available
in some combinations.
Package discounts only available at participating dealers. See dealer for details.
The ergonomically designed carrying position combined with its light weight (47 pounds) make the Kapex easy to move around the job site. When being transported, the Kapex's head is locked down making it compact and preventing movement. The two handle locations keep the center of gravity of the Kapex close to your body, minimizing the strain on your back. Now, that's smart!
The bevel adjustment on the Kapex is counter spring balanced meaning that you can position the bevel at any angle and the head will stay in position even when it is not locked in place. This makes angle adjustment much less tedious and more accurate. Bevel gauges are on both sides of the saw for quick, easy reference. Using the micro adjustment knob, the Kapex can be dialed in very accurately to fractions of a degree.
The Magnesium alloy base of the Kapex was designed to be extremely rigid and durable yet very light weight when compared to other 10" miter saws. At only 47 pounds, the Kapex is truly a portable power tool. The compact footprint allows the Kapex to be placed against a wall when being used saving valuable space in your work environment. Rubber feet protect the work surface.
Use the Bevel Lock Knob conveniently located on the top of the Kapex to control the bevel positive detents and to lock the bevel angle. The counter spring balanced head on the Kapex allows you to position the bevel and let go of the saw with the head moving. Use the fine adjustment knob to control bevel angles in fractions of a degree. The bevel knob has three settings: positive detents at 0 and -45 degrees, free movement between -45 and +45 degrees and free movement up to ±47 degrees. Bevels can be made to the left or right and the bevel gauge appears on both sides of the saw.
The Kapex incorporates a special cutting position that, when employed, provides greater than usual cutting capacity by utilizing the back portion of the blade more effectively. The Kapex is locked into the special cutting position with the flip of a lever. Cut crown moulding up to 6-5/8" in the nested position providing a cutting capacity equal to some 12" miter saws. Cut material vertically up to 4-3/4" x 3/4" (as pictured).
The Kapex features a swiveling dust extraction port which accepts a 27mm or 36mm hose. When combined with the Festool CT 22 or CT 33 Dust Extractor, the Kapex is capable of collecting up to 91% of the saw dust. The dust port has a swivel design to allow the dust extraction hose to be positioned.
The Kapex features a rail forward design which increases precision and creates a compact footprint. The rails are robust at 30mm in diameter and are wide apart. This prevents head play to ensure smooth, accurate cuts every time. The rail forward design also allow the Kapex to be placed against a wall while being used which saves valuable work space. The compact footprint also makes transport and storage easier.
The Kapex features a dust hood which is responsible for directing the ejection of saw dust from the blade into the dust collection port. This pliable rubber hood arrests chips and helps the Kapex achieve up to 91% dust extraction when using a 36mm dust extractor hose reducing the time spent cleaning up.
The Kapex features Festool's patented FastFix blade change system. Turning the FastFix knob locks the arbor, mechanically locks out the trigger and allows the blade to be changed with a single hand. Blade changes couldn't be any easier! A cupped steel arbor nut prevents accidental over-torquing and damage to the saw and blade.
A center-positioned handle allows you to make cuts with either hand making it easier to view the cut. Combine the Kapex with the MFT/3-Kapex multifunction table to place the saw at the optimal work height for greater comfort. A two-stage trigger helps prevent accidental triggering.
Easily align cuts from the left or right side of the Kapex using the dual lasers. The lasers clearly define the material which will be removed during the cut. Using the three axis adjustment controls, you have complete control to fine-tune the lasers. A conveniently placed button can be used to turn on the laser without powering on the saw. The lasers are electrically powered and require no batteries.
The Kapex blade creates a thin kerf which reduces load on the motor and improves the cut quality. The blades are specially designed to reduce noise levels and dampen vibration. The large 30mm arbor hole reduces blade deflection. The clear, narrow guard is also designed to improve dust extraction efficiency and visibility. These features allow Kapex to collect up to 91% of the saw dust when using a 36mm dust extraction hose, reducing clean up time.
The deck height of the Kapex matches the height of our Systainer 1 storage containers. On the jobsite, you can use one or more systainers to support the material being cut. The difference in height between the MFT/3 and MFT/3-Kapex multifunction tables is also equal to the height of the deck providing optimal work flow and support.
The Kapex includes an angle transfer device named the MiterFast. The MiterFast makes the transfer of inside and outside angles from the workpiece to the saw quick and easy without complex angle calculations. The MiterFast is equipped with an aggressive locking mechanism to prevent slipping. Angles are easily transferred to the Kapex using the reflective surface of the MiterFast and the dual lasers on the saw.
The miter lock on the Kapex provides an extremely aggressive hold preventing inadvertent movement even when near a positive detent. When you set a miter angle you can trust that it will be exact. The miter scale provides positive detents at common angles for quick reference. The lock is easily released and engaged by flipping the end up the handle up or down.
The Kapex features Festool's unique MMC (multi-material control) electronics. MMC provides constant blade speed while under load, provides variable speed control to match the blade speed with the material being cut and protects the motor from overload and damage. A chart on the side of the Kapex head provides a quick reference for the appropriate blade speed based on the application. A dial just above the trigger controls the speed setting.
The stainless steel, etched miter scale on the Kapex is large and easy to read. Positioned far from the axis of rotation, the scale is extremely accurate and allows precise settings to a fraction of a degree. The miter scale provides positive detents at common angles for quick reference. The scale reads up to 50º to the left and 60º to the right.
Use the fine-adjustment knob to control the bevel of the cut to fractions of a degree with extreme precision. The knob rotates and engages a rack and pinion to move the head. The head is counter spring balanced which means that once you set a bevel angle it will not move before you lock it. The bevel angle is very large and easy to read and the distance from the axis of rotation provides maximum accuracy.
The 1,600 Watt motor in the Kapex utilizes direct drive for a more efficient transfer of energy to the blade. Festool's MMC electronics control the application of that power in a constant speed as you make the cut. The result in a cleaner, more accurate cut than with a conventional miter saw. The motor also has a magnetic brake to reduce the time needed for the blade to spin down.
Another unique feature of the Kapex is a special trenching capability. With the simple flip of a conveniently placed knob (shown in photo inset), you can cut trenches to create lap joints or go around pipes and other obstacles. Flip the knob back up and you're back to normal miter saw position in seconds. Turning the knob will adjust the trenching depth. Make quick, accurate dadoes with your miter saw. Now, that's smart!
The Kapex includes a clamp which is keyed to make insertion and removal quick and easy. The clamp will not slide down freely when the lock is disengaged keeping it out of the way while you are positioning your material. A single lever-actuated cam-lock secures the clamp in place and a rubber pad protects your workpiece. The foot on the clamp is oblong shaped providing a flat surface to be placed against the fence.
Sold as an optional accessory, the Crown Stop with Base Extension (494 369) attaches to the left and right of the Kapex using a V-Groove and locking knob providing additional support surface and aiding in the utilization of the special cut position. The crown stop (not shown in photo) allows the Kapex to be used in the special cutting position to cut crown moulding up to 6-5/8" in the nested position using the back portion of the blade.
Protect your investment. The Kapex includes onboard storage for the power cord and the arbor tool. A far superior and safer solution to simply wrapping the cord around the saw during transport. This simple feature protects your cord from damage and prevents tripping. The arbor tool is always handy for quick blade changes using the FastFix system.

Singer LADY GAGA is auctioning off the chance to spend a day behind-the-scenes of her North American tour to raise money for charity.
The Poker Face hitmaker will invite the lucky winner and one guest to experience 24 hours on the road with her when she takes her Born This Way Ball shows Stateside next year (13).
The highest bidder will be granted a personal meet-and-greet session with Lady Gaga, as well as a photo opportunity backstage and a goodie bag.
They will also be able to sit in on band rehearsals, explore each department of the tour and later enjoy the evening's concert from a VIP seat.
The once-in-a-lifetime experience with Gaga, listed on auction website CharityBuzz.com, is expected to pull in around £15,625 for Sports Spectacular.

Lochinvar® Kicks Off VIP Contractor Program
Lochinvar® Kicks Off VIP Contractor Program
by Lochinvar Marketing Department
Lochinvar has announced the launch of its 2013-2014 VIP Contractor Program. Kicking off on Oct. 1, the program offers participating contractors multiple ways to earn awards and accolades for their installations of Lochinvar's residential boilers. From participating in the VIP Installation Showcase contest on Facebook to receiving Visa® Reward Cards for product registrations, VIP Contractors can enjoy the program's many perks this heating season.
Rewards for Registrations
From Oct. 1, 2013, through April 30, 2014, approved VIP Contractors will receive a Visa® Reward Card for every eligible product they register. Qualified products include the high-efficiency KNIGHT® Boiler, Solution™ Boiler and, added to the program this year, the new Cadet™ Boiler.
Each of these boilers, along with the Squire® Indirect Water Heater, has a VIP Contractor Registration Card shipped with the product. Contractors can also register purchases quickly and easily at
. For every eligible boiler registration, the VIP Contractor will receive a Visa Reward Card pre-loaded with $25 value. Each registration of the Squire Water Heater will earn a card pre-loaded with $10 value.
In addition, each registration card is entered into a monthly drawing for Lochinvar's annual Nashville Experience weekend getaway. This year's all-expenses-paid trip for two includes tickets to the world's largest country music festival in June 2014. A total of 16 VIP Contractors will win the grand prize trip: seven winners from the monthly drawings, seven from the VIP Installation Showcase and two overall top performers.
VIP Installation Showcase
Contractors can also compete to win spots on the Nashville Experience through the
VIP Installation Showcase
. Easily accessible on Lochinvar's
Facebook page
, as well as at
, the VIP Installation Showcase offers a platform where participants can share photos of their installations and interact with other contractors.
Each month from October through April, approved contractors can upload a photo and brief description of an installation of any qualified boiler or water heater to the contest interface. Once an entry has been submitted, it is featured in a gallery where Facebook users can vote for their favorite installation of the month. The top three entries with the most votes are selected as monthly finalists, and a panel of Lochinvar judges chooses the winner.
The winning VIP Contractor for each month is awarded the Nashville Experience trip for two to Music City. New installations or repeat entries can be submitted each month for additional chances to win.
Tools & Training
On top of the many rewards that VIP Contractors can earn as part of the program, participants also have access to a wealth of tools and training opportunities. All of these resources are designed to help VIPs increase their sales while decreasing their customers' energy bills.
"We look forward to the kick-off of the VIP Contractor Program every year, as it allows for added interaction with our valued partners in the field," said Mike Lahti, vice president of sales for Lochinvar, LLC. "This year's program is no exception, and we're excited to start rewarding our VIP Contractors for their hard work this heating season."

XRay Mod
Minecraft was developed around a set of small, yet smart ideas in which has started a chain of events that makes minecraft what it is today. However when experiencing minecraft in-game; you or other players will often become bored of the simplistic every-day building, mining and eating. In saying this; not all players are like this, I am certainly not, yet I know a great list of players who act this way. Believe it or not; but every player will at some point; become bored of minecraft and take a break. This is normal for players in almost every game. It gives people an opportunity to experience different games but sometimes, they will never return to their original game. Often mods are created to either enhance gameplay or introduce new features into the game. Not often do mods do both of these things, and usually are not very enticing to all players.
The XRay Mod for Minecraft 1.10.2, 1.9.4 and 1.8.9; enhances not only how you play your game, but also introduces an amazing and very intelligent system that will allow the player/user to enjoy the vanilla gameplay features and yet still use this mod to grant the ability to find and harvest ores under the ground faster, and more efficiently. Perhaps the player can only find the large veins of coal when mining and are searching for more rare or productive ores such as iron or even diamond. Whatever the reason, using the X-ray mod for minecraft 1.10.2, 1.9.4 and 1.8.9 will allow the user to not only easily find ores but also let users find other players and blocks such as chests, obsidian, lava and water.
XRay Mod for Minecraft 1.10.2, 1.9.4 and 1.8.9 Features
When exploring your world, above surface and also below the ground, in a cave or not; you will find whatever you need very easily. Using this mod still takes a little effort and will not mine the ores you can see for you. The exercise of mining to the selected ore or gem must still be done by the player and will of course, require the tools to do so. Using the X-ray mod on a multiplayer server, will often get you into a lot of trouble. Make sure you know if it's against the rules or not when playing on a server; or you could, with no doubt be permanently banned. Often server administrators will notice a player using x-ray simply by noticing him looking around whilst underground and mining in one particular angle, without the placing of a single torch. If you are wanting to use the mod on a server, in which it is against the rules it's your choice, but just remember to take the precautions of remember to do so discreetly and also place torches regularly.
Upon using the x-ray mod, as well as activating it; it will make the textures in your world, almost every one; disappear and become clear, allowing the user to spot any ores, chests, torches, cobblestone and also gems that lay above and underneath the surface of the world. All of the mentioned blocks are completely left alone, allowing the user to see them through the clear world.
XRay Mod for Minecraft 1.10.2, 1.9.4 and 1.8.9 Usage
Activating x-ray is incredibly easy. Because of this feature, you are allowed to easily activate and de-activate the xray feature in game with a tap of key. The process is very fast, and there is almost absolutely no delay in the load out of your world. By pressing the "X" key on your keyboard; this will either activate or deactivate your xray mode. However, when pressing the "L" key, your world will be significantly brightened to the maximum level on your screen. Night time will look brighter than day, which is useful in mining situations.
How to install the XRay Mod for Minecraft 1.10.2, 1.9.4 and 1.8.9
- Download and Install Minecraft Forge
- Run Minecraft Launcher and select Forge Profile
- Go to Start Menu and Run %appdata%/.minecraft
- Put the XRay Mod file without extracting it into the mods folder
- Launch Minecraft with the Forge Profile

Are you ready skeedaddy? It's time for the Lightning Round. Cramer makes the call on viewer favorites
Vector Group (VGR): I think this is a good stock, said Cramer. I'd either buy here or hold if you're already long.
ConocoPhillips (COP): Natural gas has to go much higher for this stock to work, said Cramer. Although you're being paid to wait there are much better stocks in the space.

ObjectiveThe TETON Westwood Mighty Mites Fund seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in micro-capitalization equity securities.
Principal Investment Strategies:
The Fund focuses on micro-cap companies which appear to be underpriced relative to their "private market value." Private market value is the value the Adviser believes informed investors would be willing to pay to acquire a company.
In selecting stocks, the Adviser attempts to identify companies that:
The Adviser also considers the stocks' prices, the issuers' balance sheet characteristics and the strength of issuers' managements. Micro-cap companies may also be new or unseasoned companies which are in their very early stages of development. Micro-cap companies can also be engaged in new and emerging industries.
Micro-cap companies are generally not well-known to investors and have less of an investor following than larger companies. The Adviser will attempt to capitalize on the lack of analyst attention to micro-cap stocks and the inefficiency of the micro-cap market.
The Fund may appeal to you if:
TETON Westwood Mighty Mites Fund
The stocks of smaller companies may trade less frequently and experience more abrupt price movements than stocks of larger companies, therefore, investing in this sector involves special challenges. Investing in micro capitalization stocks may involve greater risk than investing in small, medium and large capitalization stocks, since they can be subject to more abrupt or erratic movements in price. The TETON Westwood Mighty Mites sm Fund may invest in relatively new or unseasoned companies, which are in their early stages of development, or micro cap companies positioned in new and emerging industries. Micro-cap companies may be illiquid. Securities of micro-cap and unseasoned companies present greater risks than securities of larger, more established companies.
Investors should carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of the Fund before investing. The prospectus, which contains more complete information about this and other matters, should be read carefully before investing. To obtain a prospectus, please call 800-GABELLI or visit www.gabelli.com.

Daniel, could you place here what have you done to solve your problem?
I got the same situation after upgrading to mojarra 2.1.
I've checked web.xml again and again and still having the message 'Illegal attempt...'
Jean, probably you have some wrong library versions! That was my problem
And which one you have together that it's working??
For me any jsf greater than 2.0.3 does not work, so im stuck with this version.

Author Notes: Although I am late to appreciating good, oil packed tuna, I am making up for it by having it as a weekly standby. Add a hearty squeeze of fragrant lemon, some pasta and voilà, a simple but satisfying meal that my family loves. Recently I decided to add some preserved lemon I'd made over the holidays and was wooed by how much they reminded me of olives, but oh-so-much brighter (ok, I'm late to the preserved lemon party too)! While the basics of oil packed tuna, lemon and pasta are near flawless, I decided to see what would happen if I added some earthy spice, bright herbs and citrus in the form of fresh orange and preserved lemon and was very pleased with the results. It makes for a lovely light supper or satisfying lunch. —gingerroot
Food52 Review: This tasty Isreali couscous salad is delicious and quicker than a flash to make! While the couscous is cooking, the rest of the recipe can be put together, so total time to prepare is about 20 minutes (not including cooling time). The layering of citrus flavors adds so much to the balance of the dish and the preserved lemon brightens the tuna (and entire dish) delightfully. I love spice with the best of them, however suggest cutting down the cayenne the first time you make it ...I tried the full teaspoon and it overwhelmed the dish a bit too much. As suggested, start with 1/2 teaspoon. This is one of my favorite new go-to lunch salads! —Victoria Ross
Serves: 6-8
cup loosely packed cilantro leaves, washed and thoroughly dried
cup loosely packed Italian parsley leaves, washed and thoroughly dried
teaspoons whole cumin seed
teaspoon whole coriander seed
teaspoons cayenne pepper (if you are not a fan of spice, start with 1/4 t or omit completely)
cup extra virgin olive oil
juicy sweet orange
1 250g (8.81 oz) can Ortiz Bonito white tuna
cups Israeli couscous
2 1/2
cups water
kosher salt
tablespoons minced preserved lemon, rinsed, pulp and pith removed
tablespoon lemon juice
- Rough chop your herbs and place in a bowl.
- Toast cumin and coriander seed in a dry skillet over medium heat until fragrant, tossing pan as you go to prevent burning. Transfer all whole spices to a mortar and pestle. Turn off heat but return skillet to burner. Carefully add olive oil to hot skillet (beware of sputtering).
- Crush whole spices into a powder. Transfer hot oil to a large serving bowl, followed by crushed spices and cayenne. Set bowl aside.
- Heat water and a pinch of salt in a small saucepan and cover. When water is boiling, add Israeli couscous and cook for 8-10 minutes until tender and liquid is absorbed. Drain in a colander and shake to remove excess water.
- Open tuna and drain off most of the oil. Using a fork, add tuna to bowl with spiced oil.
- Cut orange in half and squeeze a quarter of the orange into tuna mixture, reserving remaining quarter.
- Fold couscous into bowl using a spatula. Follow with chopped herbs. Squeeze remaining quarter orange over salad and combine. Add preserved lemon and lemon juice and fold again.
- Taste for seasonings and adjust as necessary, adding remaining T of preserved lemon if desired. Cover and refrigerate to let flavors meld. Allow salad to come to room temperature and mix before serving. Enjoy. Note: Can be made one day ahead.

The latest smartphone tablet hybrid from Samsung is the Galaxy Note 3. We took the Galaxy Note 3 for a spin. (For a more detailed Galaxy Note 3 review, read Samsung Galaxy Note 3 review: fastest-ever phone a slim, well-built phablet with stunning display.)
Galaxy Note 3 build quality and design
The Note 3 is big, but feels slim. The thin plastic back offers access to the battery and has a new textured finish.
There's a grooved metal rim around the edges of the Note 3 that makes it feel well put together and sturdy. And the thin- and light feeling of the Note 3 is an impressive achievement when this phone's performance and display is taken into consideration.
At the bottom we find the S Pen, docked into the grooved metal rim. The stylus is topped in metal so it fits in neatly. Also down here at the bottom is a Micro USB 3.0 connector offering faster data transfers.
Overall the Galaxy Note 3 feels big, yes, but compact and well put together. Design wise we like it. See also: 18 best Android phones in UK: What's the best Android phone you can buy in 2013?
Galaxy Note 3 performance
The Note 3 has simply staggering specifications, and performance to match.
It pairs a new quad-core chip with a whopping three gigabytes of memory - and it shows. Synthetic benchmarks shouldn't be relied upon when making a purchasing decision, but if they were the Note 3 would be a must buy. In use the Note 3 feels slick and zippy. It's a truly fast phone.
In terms of battery life, this is not the handset that will make the great leap forward. But it is up there with the best current handsets.
Samsung claims up to 13 hours of internet usage and up to 21 hours of talk time. In my experience of using the Galaxy Note 3 for a few days, however, I'd say battery life is a strong point. Using it for email and web browsing, listening to music on the commute, a little social media and some video watching, I could easily get through 24 hours on a single charge. More importantly there was enough juice left over the next day to get in to the office.
In all respects the Note 3 is a top performer, then. Storage wise the options are thirty-two gigabytes and sixty four gigabytes, and there's an SD card expansion slot for up to another sixty four gigs of storage.
Galaxy Note 3 display
The Note 3 has a 5.7in AMOLED display with 16M colours and a 24-bit colour depth. That's a lot of colour and it shows. If a vibrant and deep hue is something you like in your display you need look no further.
And the colour is just the start. This is a huge screen with an HD resolution. We're used to smaller smartphones boasting retina-busting displays, but such sharpness on a screen of this size is truly a thing to behold. Movie content looks amazing, games stunning.
The touchscreen is snappy and sensitive, although prone to picking up finger smears.
Galaxy Note 3 cameras
The Galaxy Note 3 has two cameras, a front-facing camera for selfies and video calling, and a rear-facing snapper for more serious photography and video capture. The latter is a serious piece of compact camera kit, offering such features as auto focus, image stabilisation, LED flash and zero shutter lag.
Shooting modes include Drama Shot, Sound & Shot, Animated Photo, Eraser, Best Photo, Best Face, Beauty Face, HDR (High Dynamic Range), Panorama, Sports, Golf, Surround shot and Live effect.
Galaxy Note 3 software & S Pen
The Galaxy Note 3 comes with Android 4.3 'Jelly Bean' installed, as well as Samsung's own TouchWiz interface. Jelly Bean is the best Android yet, offering a slick consumer experience and access to all the media and apps that Google Play can offer.
You can also install and purchase apps and media from Samsung's own store, which is in some ways confusing but does at least offer you the opportunity to compare and choose based on price.
More than just a stylus is the S Pen. Pulling out the S Pen wakes up the phone. Hover it over the screen and it brings up contextual menus. The S Pen allows you to write freehand and move around windows on the display. You can capture a screenshot and launch command menus.
Galaxy Note 3 verdict
The Galaxy Note 3 is a high-quality portable device, offering the best performance we've ever seen, a stunning screen and nice build quality. We award four and a half stars. See also: Sony Xperia Z1 vs Samsung Galaxy Note 3 smartphone comparison review - which is the best Android phone?

This is another meal that�s perfect for a cold winter�s night. It�s a cross between baked ziti and spaghetti and meatballs.
I got the recipe from Paula Deen�s magazine and adapted it to make it quicker and to suit my family�s tastes. My husband doesn�t like ground turkey, so I used low-fat ground beef instead, and no one likes Parmesan very much in my house, so I didn�t use it, and made it optional in my recipe. The technique for baking the meatballs might sound a little odd, but it works very well, and keeps the fat away from the meat while it�s cooking.
Make ahead: You could prepare and bake the meatballs ahead of time, cool and refrigerate until you�re ready to make the casserole. You could also layer the entire casserole, refrigerate and bake the next day.
8 to 10 servings
1 pound low-fat ground beef or ground turkey
� cup panko or other breadcrumbs
� a green pepper, minced
1 large egg
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp. Italian seasoning
� tsp. salt
1 (16 ounce) box rigatoni or ziti noodles, cooked
1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese (light fine), softened
� cup sour cream
Spaghetti sauce, homemade or store-bought (6 cups)
1 (8 ounce) package shredded mozzarella cheese
1 (5-ounce) package grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Make sure there�s room in oven for a baking sheet with cooling rack on top. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place a cooling rack over pan. Spray rack with nonstick cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, combine meat, breadcrumbs, green pepper, egg, garlic, Italian seasoning and salt. Shape mixture into golf ball-size balls; place on prepared cooling rack. Bake for 15 to 17 minutes or until lightly browned. Set aside.
Lightly grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
In a large bowl, combine hot cooked pasta, cream cheese and sour cream, stirring to combine. Spoon half of mixture into prepared baking dish. Top evenly with half of meatballs. Spoon half of spaghetti sauce over meatballs. Sprinkle evenly with half of mozzarella cheese. Repeat procedure with remaining noodles, meatballs and sauce. Sprinkle with rest of mozzarella. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until hot and bubbly. Serve immediately.
Recipe adapted from Cooking with Paula Deen magazine, Sept ./ Oct. 2008
Michelle Reynolds writes for the Herald-Journal in Spartanburg. Her at-home food critics are her husband and twin sons, who mostly enjoy her experiments. One of them is a picky eater and another has a refined palate for a 9-year-old, so she understands the challenges many cooks face when making meals for family members with different tastes.

I should have noted this at the time, but I was not aware of it. It was only when I tried to do the same thing with an SPList object that I ran into trouble.
This is why - BeforeProperties and AfterProperties do not work on a list
So I ended up having to create a Just Updated flag for the user to click when they want to send an email. Just before ending the event handler, it sets that flag back to false. Yet another hack to make up for SharePoint 2007's "by design behaviour" (sigh)
So if using the code in the previous post - document library only, lads. Sorry.
