Class of 1996
Seven Selected to First Hall of Fame Class
A group of seven highly acclaimed and honored individuals were selected as the inaugural class of inductees in the Eastern Washington University Athletics Hall of Fame. The inaugural class was inducted on Oct. 5, 1996.
The inductees were headlined by legendary coach and athletic director W.B. "Red" Reese, who coached in almost 1,000 Eastern athletic events from 1930 to 1964. Reese, who passed away in 1974 at the age of 72, was inducted posthumously in ceremonies that took place in the facility that bears his name (Reese Court).
The group also includes three members of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) Hall of Fame, an Olympic gold medalist, a National Football League star and a coach who rebuilt the Eastern football program in the 1960's.
"This first class of inductees represents some of the most successful eras and individuals associated with the nearly 90-year history of intercollegiate athletics at Eastern," then athletic director John Johnson said. "This is an out standing group, but we're just as excited about the future opportunities we'll have to honor and induct equally-deserving groups of athletes. I'm pleased we finally got the Hall of Fame started in order that we can rekindle the spirit and history of Eastern athletics."
Spokane's Dave Holmes joined Reese as the two former Eastern coaches who were inducted. He took over an Eastern football program in 1963 that hadn't won a game in two seasons. In Holmes' fifth year on the job, he directed the Savages to an 11-1 record and runner-up finish in the 1967 NAIA Championships.
Basketball player Irv Leifer, wrestler Lanny Davidson and distance runner Bob Maplestone are all members of the NAIA Hall of Fame. Leifer, who was MVP of the 1947 NAIA Tournament and named to the NAIA's 50th anniversary team in 1987, was in the NAIA's inaugural class of inductees in 1952.
Davidson compiled a 139-6 record with three national titles at 177 pounds, including in 1977 when he helped lead Eastern to the NAIA title. Maplestone won four NAIA track and field titles in the mile and 1,500 meters, and once held Britain's indoor mile record.
The other two inductees enjoyed remarkable success after equally-productive collegiate careers at Eastern. Launi Meili won the gold medal in women's three-position smallbore rifle shooting at the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona. And offensive lineman Ed Simmons spent 11 seasons with the 1992 Super Bowl champion Washington Redskins.
LANNY DAVIDSON - Wrestling
Every year of his collegiate career was punctuated with a major accomplishment as he finished with a career record of 139-6 while wrestling in the 177-pound weight class. Coming to Eastern from Ephrata, Wash., he was runner-up as a freshman, then was selected as the outstanding wrestler at the 1975 NAIA Championships as a sophomore. That was the first of his three-straight 177-pound titles as he led Eastern to a runner-up finish in the 1976 NAIA championships and the title in 1977. Davidson was selected to the NAIA Hall of Fame in 1982.
DAVE HOLMES - Football
After Eastern failed to win a football game in 1961 and 1962, Holmes took over as Eastern's head coach in 1963. He was 34-13-1 in five seasons for a school-record .719 winning percentage. In 1967 Eastern played for the NAIA title and was 11-1-0. Holmes sandwiched his stint at Eastern around an illustrious high school coaching career in Spokane. A Tonasket High School and Whitworth College graduate, he was 35-28-4 at North Central High School prior to taking over Eastern's program. He left Eastern in 1968 to take the head coaching position at Hawaii where he directed the Rainbows to six-straight winning seasons. The last two years, Hawaii was 8-3 and 9-2 and upset Washington at Husky Stadium in 1973. Holmes returned to Spokane and coached at University High School from 1974-84. The Titans were 60-38-3, won a Border League title and shared two Greater Spokane League championships as Holmes concluded a 19-year prep coaching record with a 95-66-7 record. In 1991, Holmes was selected to the Inland Empire Sports Hall of Fame, with his former player and assistant coach Dick Zornes presenting him for induction. A member of five different halls of fame, he passed away in 1999.
IRV LEIFER - Basketball
Was MVP of the 1947 NAIA Tournament as Eastern reached the quarterfinals for the second-straight year. Eastern appeared in five NAIA Tournaments in the school's history, and Leifer played in four of them. Eastern was 18-7, 27-5, 31-4 and 22-9 in his four seasons in Cheney for a collective record of 98-25 (.797 winning percentage). As a junior and senior he was selected to NAIA All-Tournament teams. Although NAIA All-Americans were not selected until 1951, he was named to the NAIA's 50th anniversary team in 1987. Leifer earned All-State honors at Pine City High School in 1940 and St. John High School in 1941. In 1941 he teamed with his younger brother Bob, who was also an All-State selection, to second place in the state after a slim 30-29 loss to Bremerton in the finals. The 1952 state program described Leifer's effort as "the greatest all-around one-man performance in tourney history." At Eastern, he scored 1,550 career points to rank second in school history. He went on to a highly-successful coaching career at Renton High School, becoming the first man to coach four state basketball champions. He was selected as a charter member of the NAIA Hall of Fame in 1952. In 1983 he was named to the Inland Empire Sports Hall of Fame.
BOB MAPLESTONE - Track/Cross Country
Coming to Eastern from Cardiff, Wales, he was NAIA champion in the indoor mile in 1971 and 1972, the outdoor mile in 1971 and the outdoor 1,500 meters in 1972. As a junior and senior he added second-place outdoor finishes in the mile to his resume. He set Britain's indoor mile record in 1972 with a 3:59.2 time at the San Diego Indoor. A few months later, he beat Jim Ryun at the Drake Relays en route to setting the meet's mile record with a 4:00.4 time. He still holds three Eastern records as he won more than a dozen Evergreen Conference individual titles and three cross country championships. His running career also included a pair of titles in the 1,500 meters at the Prefontaine Classic in Eugene, Ore., and a career-best of 3:57.6 in the mile. He went on to a successful teaching and coaching career at Highline Community College in the Seattle area. He became a member of the NAIA Hall of Fame in 1981.
LAUNI MEILI - Shooting
A graduate of Eastern and Cheney High School, she won the gold medal in women's three-position smallbore rifle shooting at the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona. She also placed 11th in air rifle in Barcelona after placing sixth in air rifle and seventh in three-position rifle at the Olympic Games in Seoul in 1988. Meili also won a bronze medal at the World Championships in 1990. In all, she set three world shooting records and more than 100 national records in her outstanding shooting career. She competed in shooting at EWU, leading Eastern to a seventh-place finish at the 1983 NCAA Men's and Women's Rifle Championships. Meili was inducted into the Inland Northwest Sports Hall of Fame in 1995 and was the Inland Empire Athlete of the Year in 1992.
W.B. "RED" REESE - Coach & Athletic Director
A fixture in the Eastern athletic department from the 1930's to 1960's, Reese coached in almost 1,000 Eastern athletic events, winning more than 70 percent of them. In 31 seasons as basketball coach, Reese was 473-298 with 12 conference titles and berths in three NAIA Tournaments. As football coach for 13 seasons, Eastern won 66 of 100 games with six conference championships. In 31 seasons as track coach, his squads won 23 league championships, and at one time won 43 consecutive dual meets. In addition, Reese served as athletic director at Eastern from 1938-62 and was instrumental in the founding of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics. He served as NAIA president in the 1952-53 academic year and was an NAIA board member for 12 years. His only years away from Cheney came during World War II when he served as physical fitness officer and football coach for the Second Air Force. He came to Eastern from highly- successful coaching stints at Cashmere and North Central High Schools. At Cashmere, his hoop teams were 44-7, and at North Central his 1930 team won a state championship. Formerly from Pullman, Wash., Reese was selected to the Inland Empire Hall of Fame in 1972, and is also a member of the Hall of Fame at Washington State University where he graduated and competed in basketball.
ED SIMMONS - Football
The first Eastern football player to become a bonafide star in the National Football League, Simmons was recruited to Eastern not because of his football abilities but from the potential shown as a basketball player at Nathan Hale High School in Seattle, Wash. Under head coach Dick Zornes and offensive line coach Larry Hattemer, Simmons developed into a first team NCAA Division I-AA All-America offensive lineman in 1986. Eastern teams were 27-15-1 during his four years as an Eagle (1983-86), advancing to the quarterfinals of the NCAA Division I-AA Playoffs in 1985. In the spring of 1987 he was drafted in the sixth round by Washington and was a fixture as a Redskin "Hog" for his entire 11-year NFL career. His debut as a rookie was against Philadelphia's Reggie White. He has played the past nine seasons mostly at right tackle for the Redskins, starting 80 games during that span. He blocked for former Washington State University quarterback Mark Rypien when Washington won the 1992 Super Bowl. In 1995 Simmons was selected to the Sports Illustrated All-NFC East team, and played 1,039 of a possible 1,042 downs. He started 104 games for the Redskins before retiring prior to the 1998 season while on the roster of the St. Louis Rams.

"Could people just stop screaming?" Molly was having a miserable day. She didn't want to think about the cold, or the holiday. Or all these babies crying at the library.
"Who? What?" Tess looked at her blankly. She was checking in children's books as fast as she could.
"I did something." Molly did look perturbed.
"Like what?" Tess winced. "It can't be that bad." Tess slightly grimaced, but soon put on her smile to help some young mom with a bunch of board books and Dora DVDs to take home. Soon she was back to check on Molly who had to call a hold on a book.
"I co-signed a new car for Sal." She felt as if she might fall in the floor and have a sluggish fit of some sort. She hadn't slept since getting him the electric blue sporty KIA.
"You co-signed?" Tess couldn't stop staring. Molly told her how awful his car was. He'd been pouring loads of money into it, and it still stalled. She was tired of him not having a vehicle they could rely on.
"Now, what am I gonna do about the holidays, huh?" Molly sat there at her desk, behind the glass window.
"Relax, you can have dinner with us." Tess grinned. Granted, Puck would probably do most of the cooking. He wanted to fry it in the back yard.
"I don't even want to think about Thanksgiving. Promise, you won't let me shop on Black Friday?" Molly was serious. She might have to be hogtied and locked away for the day.
"OK." Tess shrugged. "I never shop on the day after Thanksgiving."
"Never?" Molly wondered if she were mental. "We get up at four in the morning. My Mom gives me a list. I head out for the malls with my cousins, and we wait in line to get in department stores."
"You poor thing." Tess shook her head. "You're spending the day with me." She smiled then as she walked away to help someone at the counter.
Here, they had a new car and no place to go.

When May A Creditor Call Me?
When bill collectors call, they want to be repaid, period. Otherwise, they will not stop calling unless you know your legal rights. An experienced bankruptcy - debt solution - attorney like Denvil Crowe has the ability and tenacity to stop them in their tracks and make them stop calling once and for all.
An experienced and qualified debt collection defense and bankruptcy attorney like Denvil Crowe is more than familiar with the legal rights and protections afforded by federal laws such as the Federal Debt Collectors Practices Act (FDCPA) and the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA). Someone has to protect your legal rights. It won't be anyone trying to collect a debt from you as this is your obligation. Denvil Crowe may help level the playing field and help consumers meet this obligation.
While the FCPA allows debt collectors to call consumers at home, they may only do so between the hours of 8:00 A.M. and 9:00 P.M. local time. Please know that debt collectors may not call at an unusual time or place, or any other place that should be known to them to be inconvenient. There are other additional actions that debt collectors may not take, these include causing your telephone to ring repeatedly; or engaging you in telephone conversation repeatedly with the intent to annoy, abuse, or harass you or anyone residing at the telephone number's physical location.
Debt collectors may call consumers at a telephone number that was provided in a credit application. Debtors may have listed a work phone number, which means any calls may make it difficult for a worker to be productive for all eight hours of a workday.
Federal law requires that consumers send a written "cease and desist" letter to stop debt collector calls on a cellular telephone or home telephone. For calls received at work, consumers must only provide a verbal notice to make a debt collector stop calling their workplace. However, I suggest that any actions that are taken to make a collector stop making harassing phone calls always include a written "cease and desist" letter sent by certified mail with return receipt requested.
If you have any questions that you need immediately answered or if you are simply in need of assistance in completely reviewing and thoughtfully considering your options in the face of financial hardship caused by any circumstance, Denvil Crowe, one of Tupelo's most qualified bankruptcy attorneys, may help you decide whether bankruptcy is your best option. If you want more information about bankruptcy, including how it works and what it may do for you, call Denvil Crowe, one of Tupelo's most qualified bankruptcy attorneys. Call 800-429-HELP (4357), email us at firstname.lastname@example.com or check us out online today to receive all of the assistance you need in solving the burden of excessive and unmanageable debt!

By: Laura
I'm officially in the swing of things at AccuConference. Each day I come to work, I know my duties and report to Maranda to see what is on my agenda. The awkward "new person" feeling has faded. I have learned a few more things about myself and work as well.
One of the assignments I was asked to do was to edit blogs from the past year. Usually, when I have projects for school or work, I like to work on it till it's done, even if it takes hours. I get distracted if I'm working on multiple projects simultaneously and feel like I'm not accomplishing anything, even though I am. When Maranda and Byrd found out I had been working on editing these blogs all day, they looked at me like I was crazy. I didn't see what was so crazy about it, because I had gotten a lot done.
Now I realize that it's best to break up your projects into sessions, and not to work on one thing for 6 straight hours. Not only can the monotony make you go cross-eyed, but the work you do is less efficient. I have no idea why I have always done things this way, but this is a lesson I need to carry over to my schoolwork. If I would have been breaking up assignments and readings instead of working only on what is due the next day, I would probably be better prepared for my test I have to take this evening and gotten more sleep last night.
I attended my first weekly meeting. They usually have their meetings on Thursdays while I'm in class, so they moved it to Wednesday so I could join. (Aren't they sweet?) Although it was short, it caught me up on what's going on and what needs to be done.
My next big assignment is to write an article for the Newsletter, including interviewing the client. I didn't know this would be the type of work I would be doing during my internship, but I'm glad they are trusting me with more and more responsibilities. This must mean I'm doing something right!

ForexMinute.com — The Greece hype seemed to have been cooling down after all, for the Bitcoin value has finally established a temporary bear trendline and is now descending back amid a near-term selling pressure. The correction is however weaker than expected, for the price is now held above some really strong downside levels. In today's analysis, we will be looking at these levels, followed by their tendency to create some attractive short/long positions. Here it is:
Bitcoin 4H Chart
Despite the recent pullback, Bitcoin is maintaining its prevailing bullish bias, for the price is still trending above the 50, 100 and 200H SMA and the RSI is just shy of touching 60. The MACD indicator, though dipped below the signal curve, is still inside a positive territory. The technical indicators jointly indicate a reasonable buying pressure in the market.
We are therefore hoping Bitcoin to retest the the current range resistance near 261.54, a break above which will validate 266.90 as the primary upside target. We will be placing a long position towards the primary target only when price crosses above the range line. Doing so, our stop loss will be placed near 260.68 to ensure a timely exit in case of a bias reversal.
A pullback meanwhile will be expected from 261.54, an action that will put us short towards the temporary support line near 256.44. This position will ensure only a little profit but, at the same time, will protect traders from being chopped off in case of a huge downside volatility. But even then you wish to play such a gamble, we would recommend you to place your short position towards the range support near 254.96, but with a stop loss near the temp line to exit the market in case of a bounce back.

- The Vikings winning the Super Bowl
- The Twins get a real third baseman or at least banish Buscher to the minors
- The Twins get a starting pitcher and trade Perkins for that aforementioned third baseman
- Delmon Young wins the MVP award
- Kevin Slowey wins the Cy Young award
- Boof Bonser wins the Rolaids award as set up man extraordinaire
- The Twins sweep the Yankees to advance to the ALCS, sweep the Angels to advance to the World Series and beat the Cubs 4-3 winning all the games in the dome
Seven things I want to see in 2009
1 comment:
- Marv said...
1. I pay slightly more attention to football than I do to curling, but yes, I'd watch the Super Bowl & cheer for the Vikings. That would be fun.
2. A third baseman, OK. I just can't get as upset about Buscher as you do. I rather like the guy.
3. Not that much confidence in our minor league guys? A proven starter will be expensive.
4. Go Delmon!
5. Go Kevin!
6. Go Boof. I'd love to see him pull that talent together & succeed.
7. 2009 could be a wonderful year.
Thrylos! Hope all your wishes come true!

David Wernsing was appointed to General Manager of Union Iron in late February of this year, but his career in the industry started more than 25 years ago.
In the early 1990s, Mr Wernsing started with GSI in their grain dryer division. After some time on the plant floor and in production management, he moved to the engineering department as a technician and eventually became a product manager. In the late 1990s he moved to GSI's international sales division.
Following a short break for academic study, Mr Wernsing then went to Brock as strategic accounts manager and soon after accepted an offer to be sales manager at Union Iron. AGI had just acquired Union Iron. He then spent a few years at Union Iron and then accepted a position with AGI as director of international sales.
In 2015, he became director of North American sales for our newly formed commercial division. In early 2016 Mr Wernsing was asked to be general manager at Union Iron. Mr Wernsing is firmly of the belief that he currently possesses sufficient "understanding of Union Iron's people, products and customers to build and support an effective team that will manage this business successfully."

A full 1.5in head tube, big main tubes plus sharp and shapely shock and drop-out furniture make the RZ mainframe a tight and twist-free structure.
The massive oversized stem and stiff mid-width bars transfer accurate control into your palms even with the QR-tipped fork. The long wheelbase and low-slung ride height, plus a tendency to sit back into its rear travel, feels really stable and we were pushing it harder on rougher, rockier trails than most other 120mm bikes.
While equipment levels are reasonable, weight is high and the Schwalbe tyres are slow and slippery. Despite decent pedalling manners and front and rear lockout this left it feeling harder work – particularly on climbs – than we'd hope for a 120mm bike and overall agility was stifled too.
Limited pedal clearance can catch it out on technical climbs or rocky/rooty sections. The lighter, Lefty fork-equipped £2,499 RZ1 looks a livelier candidate, but unfortunately none were ready in time for the test.

GLENDALE — As the No. 1 seed in the CIF Southern Section Division 5-AA playoffs, the Flintridge Prep boys' basketball team could be widely considered to be the favorite going up against Muir in the division championship game today at 6 p.m. at Mater Dei High.
With the division's most dominant big man in Kenyatta Smith leading the charge, the Rebels haven't come close to losing a game over their current postseason run, which has the program on the threshold of its first-ever CIF title.
But third-seeded Muir (18-10) has made its living by defying the odds over the course of its own impressive run to the finals and, while welcoming its underdog status, certainly isn't in awe of the Rebels (22-6).

This is a genuine old female Native loin or pubic cover, from we think Northern Africa. It appears to be woven from natural fibres with goat hair tassels. The loin piece measures 10" across the woven girdle and 8" in depth at center.
This Loin Cover came with a collection of eight masks we are listing. The collection was obtained by a German Army Officer Pre-World War Two and taken back to Germany where it was then inherited by his daughter who later moved here to New Zealand. The information given to us was that the collection was gathered from Northern Africa, the Cameroons, and Ivory Coast areas. This lady and her family are now returning to Germany to live and are selling off most of their collections, arts etc. The collection pieces have to therefore be a minimum of 70 years old and probably are considerably older.

On covenant making
My instant thought (which caused me to stop listening for a moment) was, "I have?"
Over the years I've had the chance to study my blessing repeatedly. And I have pondered on that particular sentence. As I have considered it, I realized that the Lord (through the patriarch) must have had a broader definition of covenants than I did.
We teach our children that a covenant is an agreement we make with God, and that it is often accompanied by an ordinance. For instance, when we are baptized, we make promises associated with obedience, taking the Lord's name upon us, caring for one another, and so on. But in a broader context, we may make many covenants with the Lord.
I remember my brother mentioned to me several years ago something he learned in LDS leader training at the Philmont scout ranch. He was taught (by whom I can no longer remember) that one of the values of the scouting program in the lives of young men is that it can teach them about covenant making and keeping, as they work through requirements for a particular rank or merit badge. They agree to do something and then must follow through with the doing. We can learn a similar pattern in our temple worship where covenant making precedes learning new knowledge.
I wrote recently about the Anti-Nephi-Lehi's and their covenant to bury the weapons of their rebellion. Actually their covenant was to repent of their murderous ways, and the token of that covenant was the burying of the weapons. By burying the weapons, they placed a fence between themselves and the covenant they desired to keep.
Someone learning about the church may covenant to keep the Word of Wisdom before he is actually baptized. A young person (or an older person!) may make a personal covenant with the Lord to avoid certain kinds of movies or websites. A person may make a covenant with the Lord to study the Book of Mormon in hopes of gaining a testimony of that scripture and the truth it contains. We may make covenants as we strive to overcome the natural man, as we study the scriptures and the spirit whispers ways in which we can draw nearer to God, as we listen to prophetic counsel in General Conference and redirect our lives.
I remember as bishop when a member of my ward came to me. It was clear he had something on his mind, and I was a little nervous, since he was acting as if he were about to confess serious sin. He did want to confess and to commit to do better. But his "sin" was not grave; it did not threaten his membership status in any way. But he felt a conversation with his bishop would help him to make a real commitment to change. He did not make a covenant with me, his bishop, but he did tell me of his commitment to the Lord to behave differently.
One of my commenters on my post about the Anti-Nephi-Lehis pointed out that many members make individual covenants that others may never know anything about, and I believe this is true. I believe that when we honor our baptismal covenant by mourning with those that mourn, sharing one another's burdens and comforting those that stand in need of comfort, we can help one another to honor covenants each has made, even personal covenants along a personal path to our Father in Heaven.

Interesting thoughts. Thank you. Your last paragraph reminds me of the Sally DeFord song, "Make Us One":ReplyDelete
"Make us one, that our burdens may be light/Make us one as we seek eternal life/Unite our hands to serve thy children well/
Unite us in obedience to thy will./
Make us one/Teach us, Lord, to be of one faith, of one heart/One in thee."
One of my sons was just ordained a deacon, so I've been thinking a lot about the priesthood. Do you think the patriarch could also have been referring to the oath and covenant of the priesthood? If you were eighteen and at BYU, he would probably assume that you were an elder and had been ordained as a deacon, teacher, and priest.
The "Guide to the Scriptures" (whatever that is) on the church website says, "The Aaronic Priesthood is received by covenant alone." ("Oath and Covenant of the Priesthood.")
Amy, thanks for your comment! And I'm sure he was thinking about the oath and covenant of the priesthood (though I was not yet an elder). But I was startled at the word "many."ReplyDelete
Since then, I've also considered that I'd taken sacrament nearly 50 times a year for ten years -- those were covenants renewed, at least.
But I know in my case, the Lord and His patriarch also knew that I had made private covenants with the Lord along the way. It was one of several ways I believe the Lord made my blessing identifiable to me.

I wonder somewhat about our ability to make covenants with the Lord that fall outside what we would consider the "enumerated" list, such as baptism, priesthood, in the temple and so forth. Meaning, normally a covenant is a two way street. We promise to obey a particular law or commandment and the Lord promises something in return. If I say " I will never watch an R rated movie again," what does the Lord promise in return? If I heard a still small voice whisper something to my heart, or a big booming voice proclaiming a great promise, then I would understand that I had bound myself, and the Lord had bound himself, to a covenant. But I've never had that happen. I guess what I'm getting at is: Do we recognize as covenants promises made to God that are not expressly recognized by the church? I thought the purpose of the church was to officiate and recognize, in an orderly and official capacity, all covenants and ordinances?ReplyDelete

Out of Chapter 15 Gospel Principles Manual - "Within the gospel, a covenant means a sacred agreement or mutual promise between God and a person or group of people. In making a covenant, God promises a blessing for obedience to particular commandments. He sets the terms of His covenants and He reveals these terms to his prophets...." I think we can promise the Lord many things, make commitments to abstain from certain behaviors, and so forth, but I think making a covenant is something pretty "official" and, as the manual states, is something revealed to God's prophets.ReplyDelete
It's an interesting dilemma, Anonymous, and I appreciate your sharing the quotation from the Gospel Principles manual.ReplyDelete
I don't know how to explain the convenant made by the Anti-Nephi-Lehis in that context, though. It certainly was a covenant connected with their repentance (and I think most of mine are, too). The Doctrine & Covenants (and King Benjamin, too) promise blessings for obedience to laws of God, though I suppose one could argue that baptism is an all-encompassing ordinances that covers all such promises.
I have no doubt that the ordinances we receive do signify covenants, and there's plenty of scriptural evidence of that, as well as your quotation.
That said, the "two-way-street" of covenants is interesting. In the case of the oath and covenant of the priesthood, for instance, it seems the Lord makes an oath, and the recipient of the blessings makes the covenant. Using that as an example, it seems a person can make other covenants with the Lord that may not be specifically linked to ordinances.

Last bit on covenants. When you have a minute, read the newest Church Handbook 2, Section 2.1.3. I think we can make promises, but in church vernacular, "covenant" is a pretty unique thing. It seems that we believe every ordinance necessary for salvation is accompanied by a covenant. Still not sure if there are "covenants" above and beyond those enumerated by church authorities. Nonetheless, I believe Heavenly Father respects committments in the same vein He respects covenants. I guess in the most broadest of senses, we we commit to live some specific principle or commandment, we're living the law of the gospel which is a covenant. Interesting thoughts!ReplyDelete
Anonymous, I appreciate your comment. The key paragraph from the CHI is this one, I think:ReplyDelete
"All the ordinances necessary for salvation and exaltation are accompanied by covenants with God. A covenant is a sacred and enduring promise between God and His children. God gives the conditions for the covenant, and His children agree to comply with those conditions. God promises blessings that are conditional on the person faithfully fulfilling the covenant."
What that tells me is that all ordinances necessary for salvation are accompanied by covenants. But it does not necessarily preclude covenants outside those associated with saving ordinances.
The Anti-Lehi-Nephis clearly made a covenant outside the saving ordinances when they buried their weapons of war.
Similarly, the Nephites made covenants to protect their land when Captain Moroni presented his Title of Liberty (see Alma 46:20-21: "Behold, whosoever will maintain this title upon the land, let them come forth in the strength of the Lord, and enter into a covenant that they will maintain their rights, and their religion, that the Lord God may bless them.
21 And it came to pass that when Moroni had proclaimed these words, behold, the people came running together with their armor girded about their loins, rending their garments in token, or as a covenant, that they would not forsake the Lord their God; or, in other words, if they should transgress the commandments of God, or fall into transgression, and be ashamed to take upon them the name of Christ, the Lord should rend them even as they had rent their garments.")
Given that, as my patriarch said to me in the spirit of revelation, it is possible for us to make many covenants (else how could he say that I had made many covenants with the Lord?). Those certainly include the ordinance-connected covenants, but also personalized individual covenants that we may make ourselves, without expectation that others will make the same ones, and certainly not in conflict with the ordinance-based covenants that the Lord requires.

Two weeks ago we told you that we will be collecting pictures of our products in use, and giving 5% off your next order if you send us these photos. Since then, we've been receiving tons of pictures from our customers. They've been sending us pics of their plastic bins and wire shelving, in action.
The first customer photo we'll discuss was sent from Donna in Hudson, MA. She called us and explained that her bedroom closet was in severe need of some organization. Her shelves had fallen down and she needed a new storage system to get her clothing off of the floor.
We suggested that she purchase some wire shelving units and put them in her closet. Well, she listened, and she liked! Check out some photos of Donna's closet (and how she uses the wire shelving units to her benefit).

Cash crunch? China's true crunch time is yet to come
How can a largely state-owned banking system experience a credit crunch? When the central bank decides to rein back credit.
The Chinese central bank has been reining back credit for some time now as it has sought to control housing prices. But, when the cheap money from the rest of the world began reversing (see my post on Great Reversal part II) due to the Fed signalling an end date for the era of cheap money, funds leaving emerging economies like China have made the situation more apparent.
Last week, the overnight lending rate between banks jumped to exceed 25% as banks became reluctant to lend to each other. But the lending rates fell again when the state-owned banks fell into line and resumed lending to each other.
Now, the Chinese central bank says that liquidity is "ample" and essentially indicated that it will not inject more cash, holding firm on the line of controlling credit growth in the economy.
As a result, the Chinese stock market fell into bear market territory led by the decline of banks. In other words, banks can't count on the central bank for cheap cash. In fact, the central bank wants to root out the poorly performing banks - especially those in the so-called shadow banking system.
Unintended consequence
Shadow banks in China, as I have said before, are not like Western shadow banks. They share the similarity of being worryingly outside the formal regulatory framework, but they aren't complex entities trading complicated financial instruments like derivatives. They carry out normal banking activities, namely lending, but without a banking license.
The growth of this sector was almost an unintended consequence of the partial liberalisation of interest rates in 2004. In other words, China doesn't have one market-clearing interest rate, but controlled benchmark rates that set the cost for lending and deposits.
They have been aiming to reform capital markets to better price for risk. And like many Chinese reforms, they did it gradually and partially. Unfortunately, in financial markets, they ended up bolstering informal lending that is the new frontier in concerns over the Chinese banking sector.
China lifted the "ceiling" on the lending rate and the "floor" of the deposit rate in 2004. At present, there is still a "floor" on the lending rate of 6% and a "ceiling" on the deposit rate of 3%, although banks can now exceed the limits of both these benchmark rates by some 10%-30%.
With the ability to earn higher returns through lending, unlicensed banks started doing so at reportedly double-digit rates. Funds even came from savers seeking better returns for their money. This is because, after inflation, the interest earned on deposits was sometimes negative in the post-global crisis period.
Off balance sheet
When coupled with few other avenues to put their money, there was unsurprisingly rapid growth in the informal lending sector.
That isn't the only reason for the growth of the shadow banking system.
Local governments have used off balance sheet vehicles to borrow from state-owned banks, especially since they were at the forefront of the government's large-scale stimulus measures to cope with the 2008 global financial crisis. Part of the problem is that China's municipal bond market is under-developed, so local governments can't simply borrow from debt markets and end up relying somewhat covertly on banks.
The Chinese government is trying to curb this behaviour and have also started to allow local governments to issue bonds more independently to reduce the incentives to rely on banks.
The result is that debt has grown quickly in China since the global financial crisis when they unleashed a large amount of credit to help stimulate their economy.
The central banks' central bank, the Bank for International Settlements (BIS), in its latest annual report, reveals that the growth of debt in China since 2007 is an astounding 50 percentage points of GDP.
Comparatively, it is the fifth largest increase in debt among major economies, after only the rescued countries of Ireland, Portugal, and Greece, as well as Britain (that had a banking crisis and rescued its banks).
Also, unlike those countries where the growth in debt is from government borrowing, most of China's increase in debt is due to companies borrowing. And thus China's concerns over too much lending, including from the shadow banking system. Local government borrowing is largely off balance sheet, so it doesn't show up necessarily in government debt levels.
This growth in debt in a shaky banking system is why China's central bank is holding a firm line on injecting more cash into the system. The real crunch time is likely to come if the Chinese economy slows below the government's 7.5% target, and there is pressure to raise growth through easing the terms for lending. That is when the resolve of the central bank will truly be tested.

Rosie Nimmo - Home (Kick My Heels Records)
Edinburgh-based Rosie has been singing jazz and blues for several years, mostly with the band Rosy Blue, but only comparatively recently has she felt sufficiently confident to chance airing her own songs in the public domain.
Rosie's first album of original material (which came out last year) sported a title, Lazy And Mellow, which proved a fairly apt description of her singing style: exactly as the press release claims, reminding one of qualities in the voices of Billie Holliday and Dory Previn. But I'm less influenced by those comparisons than I'm impressed with Rosie's own special alluring quality, an elegant combination of poise and depth that informs her approach to phrasing, and Home's opening track, the understated Never Go Back, perhaps best exemplifies those features. Later, the sophisticated-crooner side to Rosie's voice comes to the fore in tracks like the swooning Moonglow Music, while she also does a nice line in genial, slightly kooky pop stylings on Precious Mistakes and Timeclock.
Yet, while vocal versatility is definitely a byword for Rosie, her songwriting is also very persuasive in an understated kind of way, capably treading the fine line between reflection, personal self-examination and brooding observation. Just occasionally, as on Little Bird and Life Can Pin You To The Wall, you get the sense that Rosie doesn't quite dig deeply enough, and that she's on the very verge of coming up with a revelation; most of the time, though, her conciseness of expression is a virtue and proves more than sufficient to convey her feelings, as on the disc's sweetly anguished emotional centre, The End.
The delicate trio of songs comprising the evocative Home, the nostalgically carefree shuffling jazz of Being A Child Again (In The Snow) and the desperate Low Blue Way together form what's possibly the disc's most imaginative sequence, while at the other end of the scale, Listen To Your Own Voice couches its numbingly blatant message in a naggingly catchy melody and insistent poppish arrangement. And on the subject of arrangements, these have been masterminded by Hobotalk's Marc Pilley (who also plays guitars, drums and marimba), with further help from that band's keyboard wiz Ali Petrie, while respected fiddle player Mairi Campbell contributes meaningfully to just two of the songs, as does Emma Turley on cello.
Home is an exquisite disc, one whose songs really haunt you, grow into you almost subliminally and yet also have an immediate musical appeal.

Annually, the Seismological Society of America (SSA) recognizes excellence in student research with its Student Presentation Award. This year's list of eight recipients includes IRIS Internship alumni Justin Brown (Class of 2004). Justin was recognized for his continued efforts to better understand factors that influence Tremor (abstract below). Congratulations Justin! Justin was also recognized by the SSA community with a previous Student Presentation Award in 2008.
Be sure to browse the lists of past recipients when visiting the SSA website as other program alumni have also won this award.
Tectonic tremor from multiple circum-Pacific subduction zones has been shown to consist of repeating low frequency earthquakes on the plate interface. Tremor/LFE occurrence in some areas exhibits episodic behavior down-dip of previous great mega-thrust earthquakes suggesting that the tremor may delimit the lower edges of large earthquake rupture. We investigate where and why tremor does (and does not) occur. We compare observations of LFE locations in five subduction zones: southwest Japan, Cascadia, Alaska-Aleutian Arc, Costa Rica and Mexico. We compare the LFE location patterns among the five areas with subduction parameters such as incoming sediment thickness, plate age, convergence rate and temperature. A preliminary conclusion is that temperature exerts a strong influence on LFE depth; warmer subduction zones (e.g. southwest Japan, Cascadia) experience tremor activity around 30-40 km depth, whereas cooler subduction zones (e.g. the Alaska-Aleutian Arc) experience tremor between 45-55 km depth. In addition, sediment thickness seems to play little to no role in tremor/LFE depths. This may be attributable to the amount of shear and chemical alterations that occur in the primary seismogenic zone up-dip from the tremor zone.

Imagine. Pointing a laser pen randomly into the sky at night. The next day you are being charged for pointing a laser at an aircraft operator and find out that you caused the blood vessels in the left eyes of two pilots to rupture. What are the chances? lol.
Apparently," Hidlago Moreno, 19, and his 17-year-old friend were playing with a laser pointer at about 2 a.m. on New Year's Day, shining it into the sky. Two pilots from the Collier County Sheriff's Office spotted the light while patrolling in their tactical helicopter 500 feet in the air.
The pilots were forced to return to their hangar, and each sought treatment at a local hospital for ruptured blood vessels in their left eyes. The police were able to track the lasers back to Hidalgo's home, and both teens were charged with pointing a laser at an aircraft operator, causing injury."
Wow. Wouldn't it take a while for the laser to damage your eyes? At least several seconds? Why would the pilots even stare at the laser for such a long time - especially when flying... And both pilots?

Today, as I was reading the Guardian on-line, I found a piece about a food bloggers' code of ethics, which I thought was very interesting, and could be revised slightly to encompass bloggers who write about products and services.
The Food Blog Code of Ethics is from a blog entitled exactly Food Ethics. Here's the Code which they've written.
The Code
We wrote the Food Blog Code of Ethics after many heated conversations with fellow food bloggers. Those discussions inspired us to lay down some basic guidelines for food writing on the Internet because we couldn't find any that already existed. These aren't laws that we expect everyone to follow. These aren't rules you have to accept as your own. We know they don't apply to everybody. They're a jumping off point to start a bigger discussion.
The Code is not intended to limit anyone's freedom of speech. We offer these pages to advocate accountability, accuracy and honesty in the world of food blogging. The Code is designed as a set of guidelines, not a punishable set of laws.
1. We will be accountable
- We will write about the culinary world with the care of a professional. We will not use the power of our blog as a weapon. We will stand behind our claims. If what we say or show could potentially affect someone's reputation or livelihood, we will post with the utmost thought and due diligence.
- We understand why some bloggers choose to stay anonymous. We respect that need but will not use it as an excuse to avoid accountability. When we choose to write anonymously for our own personal or professional safety, we will not post things we wouldn't be comfortable putting our names to.
- If we review a restaurant, product or culinary resource we will consider integrating the standard set of guidelines as offered by the
2. We will be civil.
- We wholeheartedly believe in freedom of speech, but we also acknowledge that our experiences with food are subjective. We promise to be mindful—regardless of how passionate we are—that we will be forthright, and will refrain from personal attacks.
- If we are writing about something or someone we are emotionally or financially connected to, we will be up front about it.
- When something is given to us or offered at a deep discount because of our blog, we will disclose that information. As bloggers, most of us do not have the budgets of large publications, and we recognize the value of samples, review copies of books, donated giveaway items and culinary events. It's important to disclose freebies to avoid be accused of conflicts of interest.
5. We will follow the rules of good journalism
- We will not plagiarize. We will respect copyright on photos. We will attribute recipes and note if they are adaptations from a published original. We will research. We will attribute quotes and offer link backs to original sources whenever.
Even though this code is for food bloggers, I think that it is a good basis for most bloggers who write about products, services and the like. I am very interested in your thought on this subject.

The GNX-903VS Brave (Standard Test Type) (aka Brave), is the successor unit to the GNX-U02X Masurao[1] and featured in Mobile Suit Gundam 00 The Movie: A Wakening of the Trailblazer.
Technology & Combat Characteristics
The new unit is a next generation mass production successor to the Union Flag and AEU Enact, installed with the latest developments in GN technology. Unlike the GN Flag (a single customized Flag with the flight unit replaced with a GN Drive Tau), the Brave is a pre-production model in testing stages and has a design and technology that is based on the GNX-U02X Masurao.[1] It is being developed by a team of engineers who originate from both the Union and the AEU power blocs.[1]
In contrasts to mobile suits developed so far, the Brave is developed for use in an emergency deployment mobile suit squadron.[6] This squadron would need to be deployed and enter combat zones in a short amount of time.[6] In addition to its high mobility and the flight mode's long distance travel capability, the Brave also has overwhelming firepower.[6]
The new transformation ability of the unit is helped in part by the Leif OS installed.[6] While most of the transformation structure is derived from AEU/Union flight models, the arms being folded to the rear is new, and revolutionized the entire transformation structure for the ESF.[6] This is attributed to the feedback from data of the captured Kyrios.[6]
Since the Standard Type was only intended to be used by typical pilots, the side binders and beam sabers are smaller, and overall it is meant to be easier to control than the high powered commander version.[6]
This standard unit version features a GN Drive Tau mounted on its back. Unlike the GNX-U02X Masurao and GNX-Y901TW Susanowo however, the GN Particles are directly emitted by the GN Drive Tau unit.[1] The number of GN Drives on the final production model will eventually be standardize based on the performance data of the two test types at the end of the test period.[2] The availability of three drive sockets also grants the Brave expandability and developability that enables various trials that speed up its overall development.[6]
While the blue Commander Type resembles the original SVMS-01 Union Flag with its even antennas like the AEU-09 AEU Enact, the green Standard Type resembles the Enact more in terms of color and visor design, while its uneven head antennas resembling the Flag's.
- The Brave is shown to carry a GN Beam Rifle, which doubles as the unit's forward section in flight mode. When in use, the front section of the GN Beam Rifle splits in order to fire a powerful GN Particle Beam. Whether it can adjust its power output is unknown. Its alternative name is "Drake Howling".[5] Just like the Susanowo, the Brave also possess the ability to use the "Tri-Punisher" attack by combining the beam outputs of the Drake Howling and the GN Cannons.[2] Presumably, this attack has a high particle requirement, which is perhaps the reason why it is not used often.
- Chakram Grenade
- Built inside the legs. Rather than being a direct-blow weapon, it is actually an electronics warfare type equipment that can disable enemy's sensors by using particle disturbance.[4]
- GN Cannon
- These are mounted in the Brave's side binders.[2] They function similarly to the Gaga Cannon's GN Cannons, having a high firing rate, but have lower power output compared to the Drake Howling. Unlike the commander's version, the GN Cannons are not concealed in the side binders but mounted at the top. They can rotate to point backwards and shoot incoming enemies.
- GN Beam Saber
- The Brave's side binder(s) contains a GN Beam Saber compartment, where the GN Beam Saber(s) are stored. Each side binder stores one GN Beam Saber, for a total of two beam sabers.
- GN Beam Machine Gun
- One mounted in each wrist, it trades in firepower for a high firing rate. Typically used to shoot down missiles or for point defense. When in use, they unfold from the wrist, revealing the machine gun barrel.
- 30mm Machine Gun
- Mounted on the chest. Uses non-beam ammunition to shoot down missiles.
- GN Missiles
- Stored in the legs' weapon bays, two can be stored per leg, totaling the amount of missiles to 4.
Special Equipment & Features
- The Brave's overall capabilities can be enhanced through the power of the Trans-Am System for a limited time. It is currently unknown whether the Drive(s) will suffer damage/destruction after usage like the Tau models of 2312.
- Side Binders
- Stores the Brave's GN Cannons, Beam Sabers, and also wings for atmospheric flight. The side binders can rotate to function like a Defense Rod.
- Energy Cable
- Provides particle feed to the Brave's weapon when neccessary.
- Large GN Condenser
- Used to provide GN Particles to the Brave for travelling long distances and can also be used to reduce the unit's own particle consumption.[2] It is mounted on the rear end of the Brave when in flight mode, it is unknown whether it can be equipped in MS mode. It is usually jettisoned during battles due to it being a hindrance.[2]
The GNX-Y903VS Brave (Standard Test Type) is featured in Mobile Suit Gundam 00 The Movie: A Wakening of the Trailblazer, where it is developed and deployed by the Earth Sphere Federation Army. The Braves were assigned to the Sol Brave Squadron, an elite mobile suit squadron led by Major Graham Aker, who pilots the GNX-Y903VW Brave (Commander Test Type). The Braves were first seen when Graham deploys the Sol Brave Squadron to assist Celestial Being during their second attempt to communicate with the Extraterrestrial Living-metal Shape-shifter. Graham and his squadron covered the Celestial Being retreat, and while both parties were able to retreat, the effort was not without casualties Celestial Being lost the GN-0000RE+GNR-010 00 Raiser (Condenser Type), the GN-008RE Seravee Gundam II, the CB-002 Raphael Gundam, and the physical body of Tieria Erde.
Later, Graham and his remaining men sortied to hold back the ELS invasion alongside the rest of the ESF Army and Celestial Being. During the battle, two of Graham's Braves were destroyed by the ELS, while Graham himself sacrificed his life to clear a path for Setsuna F. Seiei. A maximum of three Braves remained after the battle, but it is unknown whether the Braves were ever put into full mass-production.

Notes & Trivia
- Although it is said that the folding of the arm to the rear in flight mode is new and revolutionary, the mechanic was first used by YMS-02 Union Blast, and later by the SVMS-01 Union Flag in high speed flight mode.

I'm not aware of any true housekeeping proteins for serum. Such normalization isn't required for serum for publication. If you really want to, however, you could try using IgM, as per this paper: http://www.mcponline...nt/4/6/773.full

Went to Stinktown USA, that's Lewiston, ID for all those who don't know where Stinktown is, and saw a movie all by my lonesome self. Since the wife is in Texas, I thought I would see the latest Ben Affleck directed movie, The Town. This is Ben Affleck's second directorial attempt and like other critics are saying, Affleck is becoming a good director. His first movie was Gone Mantha Gone staring his brother Casey Affleck.
This time around, the movie is centered in Ben's favorite town, Boston. It's actually Charleston but anyway still basically Boston for those of you who don't know your geography. Anyway, the movie centers on a group of 4 bank robbers led by Affleck. Like the previews hint, Affleck starts to fall for a girl they kidnap during one of their heists, Rebecca Hall. Now Ben is torn between getting another robbery done with his friend, Jeremy Renner who has maybe a few screws missing. I won't give away too much more but I did enjoy most peoples acting. Affleck seemed stiff in parts but good in others so it all balances out. Jon Hamm who has the most chiseled face in Hollywood (not as much as Lance Burton in Vegas), does a good job as the tough but always one step behind FBI agent. Blake Lively and Rebecca Hall are also good and nice to look at. hea.
The story is pretty good. Affleck had some writing credits, and I know he is a good writter, see Good Will Hunting. His direction is pretty good too and I applaud him for not using Shaky Cam during the heist scenes. Let's hope that trend is dying. The best part of this movie is Jeremy Renner who was the star of the Hurt Locker. Like that movie (which I still don't think deserved best picture but oh well), Renner steals every scene he is in. You are kind of routing for him in the end but at the same time want the cops to do him in. If this movie deserves any Oscar consideration, consider Renner for Best Supporting. Anyways I enjoyed the movie. It probably wont be my favorite this year but might make the top 10. 3.8 out of 4 stars.
It's just another day for Affleck with Barbe-ques, Blake Lively Butts and Renner Heads.
Mad Men with Guns and Guys Running, produced by Trent and Mitch Films.

It's not like I haven't taken a break from blogging before, but it's different this time
...it's because I really truly actually have been crazy busy!
This semester, so far, has been
SO fun,
I have learned SO much,
but I have been
SO busy!
I have a little free time (literally...a little) I am going to get a few posts done and have them scheduled for the future.
I feel so out of the loop! I checked my reader...
...I have over 200 things to read!!
That is CRAZY!!
So, sorry if I don't comment on your blogs like I usually do, it's not because I don't love you anymore...
It's because I haven't been reading your blogs!
Because I haven't had time!
I WILL read yours, I PROMISE, it just might take awhile, and I probably won't comment because I feel weird commenting on something that happened awhile ago!!
But please, still comment on mine...

Mark Clattenburg has returned to training with the top-flight Select Group of referees for the first time since Chelsea's complaint against the match official.
The 37-year-old will miss a third weekend of Barclays Premier League matches but the outcome of the Football Association's investigation into Chelsea's complaint of inappropriate language should be known by the end of the week.
Chelsea have alleged that Clattenburg used a term understood to have been interpreted as racist towards John Obi Mikel during the Premier League match against Manchester United on October 28. The official strenuously denies having done so.

McCadden, who has carefully analyzed x-rays taken of the mummy, comes to the reluctant conclusion that it is not what it seems.

Confession: I'm having a hard time being a mirror of peace and patience today. My insides are on fire, and all I want to do is scream.
Selfishly, it's getting difficult to let my husband leave each morning. Sometimes I don't want to share him with this world. Nights like last night's shooting in Texas make me a hesitant to believe people are worth it, to be honest. He has a son missing him right now that is way more deserving of his time than the drug dealing crackhead who wants to argue about his rights under free market capitalism…or…whatever.
Then, I remember, his job is not about the criminal.
It's about the little boy in his room who can't play outside because of that same drug dealer. It's about the tired mom who might not have made it home to her family after getting off the midnight shift, if the officer she passed doing the field sobriety test hadn't caught the drunk driver who could have hit her. Sometimes, it's about speeding tickets and seat belts, because that's the law and they're there to enforce it. However, if you ask them, they'll tell you it's about community policing, comforting people on their worst days and being an angel to average people who have just had their world turned upside down.
That's why he goes to work. While there seems to be a never-ending supply of bad people making horrible decisions, there is also a never-ending supply of victims affected by them.
Today, I praise God for His continuing gift of courageous heroes, and I thank our amazing officers for selflessly, and boldly, answering every call for service.

The party slept with Tizali on guard, when suddenly another person appeared in camp accompanied by a silent storm of roses. A rather frustrated, attractive blonde haired human female sat across from Tizali. The woman known as "Kitten" apparently was sent by Rachel in order to bring Tizali back into her normal headspace.
Slowly the newcomer drew the problems Tizali was dealing with involving Sophi out into the open and helped her work through them. As Tizali became more like herself, namely angry, the camp slowly woke to discover "KItten" and Tizali's conversation.
The group was introduced to "Kitten" and she fell silent while the others discussion turned to a strange form of magic Tizali had acquired. They worked through some theories on the strange magic and Tizali attempted to test one of them on Kalem. Instead she somehow managed to cast the strange magic over the whole group.
"Kitten" watched with exasperation as she impatiently waited to disappear again as her little assignment seemed concluded. Instead of being teleported off to enjoy her waiting bath the entire tubs worth of water was dropped on her head and a moment later her pack full of gear fell from the sky as well. She promptly snatched it from the air seemingly expected it and tossed it to the ground in aggravation knowing she had somehow been recruited to the group against her will.
Much to Gideon's delight "Kitten" striped off her clothes, laying them out by the fire to dry and promptly going to sleep. The rest of the group retreating to their beds.

Keshra Sangwal, "Additives and Crystallization Processes: From Fundamentals to Applications"
English | 2007 | ISBN: 0470061537 | PDF | pages: 468 | 17.3 mb
English | 2007 | ISBN: 0470061537 | PDF | pages: 468 | 17.3 mb
Crystal growth technology involves processes for the production of crystals essential for microelectronics, communication technologies, lasers and energy producing and energy saving technology. A deliberately added impurity is called an additive and in different industries these affect the process of crystal growth. Thus, understanding of interactions between additives and the crystallizing phases is important in different processes found in the lab, nature and in various industries.
This book presents a generalized description of the mechanisms of action of additives during nucleation, growth and aggregation of crystals during crystallization and has received endorsement from the President of the International Organization for Crystal Growth. It is the first text devoted to the role of additives in different crystallization processes encountered in the lab, nature and in industries as diverse as pharmaceuticals, food and biofuels.
A unique highlight of the book are chapters on the effect of additives on crystal growth processes, since the phenomena discussed is an issue of debate between researchers

Does OL Moosman have double digit offers
Libertyville High School (Ill.) offensive line prospect David Moosman (6-foot-5, 270 pounds) already is touting nine scholarship offers this spring, and Moosman has discovered that offer #10 is awaiting him in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
"The Michigan coaches were in school earlier this week," David Moosman said. "The Michigan coaches told my head coach (Randy Kuceyeski) that they were going to offer me a scholarship. So I called the coaches later on at night, and they indeed told me that they are going to offer me a scholarship, but that I need to make the trip to Ann Arbor in person before they will present me with the paperwork. I'm going to make a trip to Ann Arbor on May 7th."
Moosman added that, "I'm pretty excited about getting an offer from Michigan, it's different that they want to present my offer in person, then again if I was giving out scholarships to Michigan I would want to give them out in person as well. Michigan has a lot to offer both academically as well as on the football field, and I'm excited to draw an offer from them."
Libertyville High School also looks to be a hub of recruiting activity as well as college visits over the next few weeks. "Michigan and Boston College have already been in school, and according to my coach several schools are planning to be in over the next few weeks."
David Moosman now has early scholarship offers from Michigan, Iowa, Wisconsin, Arizona, Illinois, Michigan State, Northwestern, Notre Dame, Kansas and Boston College.

First of all, thank you Charlotte for suggesting how to get rid of the blue light I suffered with on my last photo - I really appreciate it :)
Christmas is coming fast eh? These last two weeks seem to have gone faster than any weeks ever before almost LOL! Anyway, I hope you're feeling at least reasonably prepared and can enjoy this weekend :)
Right, onto the page for Dec 3rd in my Christmas album...
I decided I wanted to have a page & journal about Christmas markets in general. The photo is taken in Manchester and is actually from the 29th... but I'm totally cool with that. My album is about capturing Christmas, the run up to it, our traditions etc and it's totally fine if a photo comes from a different day to the one I'm actually working on :) Putting the tradition of visiting Christmas market into my album was something I definitely wanted to do :)

Love your journal so far! I am the same way-with "out of date" photo's. We had a Christmas parade & a poinsettia festival mid Nov-I will incorporate photo's of those into my journal on days when we didn't really have anything specific going on. My journal too encompasses the whole season's festivities even if they didn't happen in December! : )

Hollaback! LA
Our story begins with multiple stories of harassment shared. It got us talking, it got us determined, and now we know… We want to Hollaback!
Because LA is so reliant on cars, harassment on the streets and in public places can be intensified by feeling isolated. We're hoping to change that balance, and make LA spaces safe for everyone. We believe in the power of story-telling. We believe in the power of bystanders.
We are Genevieve, Sara, Erica and Evelynn. And you will see our stories and images across the site, with time.

Talking back. Most parents hate it. It pushes buttons and drives everyone nuts.
1. Nevertheless, what if pushing or talking back is essentially good for childhood growth?
It is!
The experts agree this behaviour is really developmentally healthy for kids. Clinical psychologist Kelly M. Flanagan explains that "the incapability to say "No" — the incapacity to set personal boundaries — is one of the most common, treacherous causes of human suffering. "
Psychologist Joseph P. Allen, who headed a scholarship at the University of Virginia, says: "We tell parents to think of those quarrels not as an irritation but as a critical training ground."
Children push back when they are trying to gain some control over their lives. Negotiating is a critical ability adults need to own, and kids are just practicing with their parents. It is better they practice with a parent than carelessly follow an adult or peer into trouble.

I like all of them except the bottom one, but I looove the blue and brown. You had some blue and brown flowers before. I got outrageously excited when I found the same fabric in my local shop (and on sale at £5/m!) but of course there was no-one handy to understand what "Nikki's got that one, she used it on the cover of one of her patterns!!" meant.
If it's not on sale how much do you buy at a time? Is the concept of the fat quarter completely lost on you?!

Birthday Book Squad
If you see animated Middle School students roaming campus costumed in long, colorful capes, you are probably witnessing the Birthday Book Squad in action.
The Birthday Book Squad
The Birthday Book Squad, also known as the BBS, delivers gifts of "Birthday Books" to students on their special day. The children take their books home, read them and then donate their Birthday Book back to the library. In addition to their spirited courier duties, the BBS students produce a semi-annual newsletter featuring their original book reviews.
Each year, BBS hosts a school-wide BBS Book Drive. Since the event began in 2007, BBS students have collected more than 6,000 books and redistributed them locally and globally to children in need.
ACDS Library Science 101
Middle school students who want to be even more involved in the library can take this popular elective class.
Students get to test-drive new technology, present reader theater events, learn about the mysterious Mr. Dewey and how a library works, and experience literature through the eyes of the creators.
Author Visits
ACDS students and parent volunteers host creative literary celebrations when we have an author visit campus. See more about how we build student interest in books and reading by welcoming and learning from visiting authors.

|Spontaneous trail ride resulted in a first this morning: Maddie cleaned the top trail. We've been ridden the tippy-top trail a number of times, but never the top trail.
|The top trail is pretty hard -- the dropoff is distracting, much of the trail is off-camber, and the dirt is pretty wash-outty at spots.
|Maddie kept her cool, took it at a reasonable speed, and enjoyed it. I just put a sock in it: the best approach. Though I did mention keeping her weight back as we descended.
|Also: it turns out that the helmet IS cool. When Maddie went to school with a boring normal helmet, many of her classmates were disappointed and asked where the "sno cone" helmet was...

Google Blogoscoped plays futurist
In about 20 years from now, the internet and the TV have been completely merged. That means full interactivity for that innocent little box which years ago invaded humanity's living rooms. A side-effect not even big media companies did foresee was that most people were actually quite happy with the ease-of-use of sitting on a couch and clicking through channels of mindless TV shows... without any need to manage bookmarks, configure your TiVo, personalize the advertisement, or zapping away pop-ups.

Other similar website is empower network.. These site offers marketing training for a fee and they don't come cheap. You have to pay $100 joining fee plus a monthly fee of $49.95 for basic level membership and $169.95 for premium membership. They also offer 100% commission and so it translates they don't have real market value to their product. Its just all about recruiting.
What do you think of this?
Is Neucopia scam or not?
