If Quintin Berry and Ben Revere are already taken in your league and you want steals without a gaping flaw in average or power (ruling our Rajai Davis, Juan Pierre and Tony Campana), give Campana a look. A career .282 hitter, this year he's at .274/.341/.421 with 10 SBs, 31 R and 4 HRs thrown in. Only 13.3% owned in ESPN leagues.

I saw her sitting on the Front Bench before the debate started, and I wondered whether I should nip over and give her an outline of my concerns. I apologise that she has not had one.
I have applied for this Adjournment debate to draw the attention of the House to the alleged abuse of planning controls at Rother district council in my constituency. I wish to make it clear from the outset that the irregularities to which I shall refer do not arise from any obvious deficiency in planning legislation nor, so far as I can tell, are they the result of maladministration or...
Institutional conservatism is about the only kind of conservatism that I would rail against. Is the hon.

This is a story I created based on a hillarious, yet creepy comic by Loceri; nobody created anything based on this yet, so I just had to do it.
See what happens when a young toddler filly develops a 2nd personality hidden within her when at her breaking point.
This is part 1 of a 4-part story of Pumpkin's struggles
This story is a sequel to A Brand New Game
[MxF] [Incest] [Foalcon]
[Based on pictures by KryptChild and template93]
Pound Cake's life is infinitely better since learning A Brand New Game. There are so many new and sexy experiences for him to enjoy, and it's all just so amazing.
But, of course, just one new game is never enough. Kids always want more, more, more!!
[Humanized] Pound Cake and his twin sister, Pumpkin Cake, have always been very close. They wore the same clothes, ate the same food, and even bathed in the same bath tub as infants. Now, the twins are growing up, and strange things begin to happen as maturity takes over.
Pokey Pierce and Pinkie Pie have some fun with the eight-year-old Cake Twins. Humanized.

The trailer for the WARCRAFT movie releases this week and we are shit excited!!! We have waited for over a decade for this movie and cant wait to watch it! Really hoping this movie brings all our hopes to life and becomes a series at par with the marvel universe!
Watch the cinematic in-game movies that were way ahead of its time! These were not only driven by an amazing story, but also had great graphic film artwork that has inspired movies for a decade.

Hi Donna- I am back from my blogging break and loving to see your blog again. I have never seen paper clay? I am going to have to look this up-it makes very realistic looking stems! Happy Halloween to you, too- xo DianaReplyDelete
Although "Mr. Ed" and I don't celebrate Halloween in the fashion that you do...I have truly enjoyed seeing all your decor!!! Amazing job, dear friend! I'm sure your "Trick Or Treaters" will be much more enthused when they arrive at your home than at mine. We do pass out candy and wish all who ring our bell safe wishes for the night! Thank you for sharing your creative talents with us!!!
It's a truly beautiful pumpkin! How did you do the "C" on it.

Full frame cameras have been the fine line that divided amateurs/hobbyists from serious professionals for the longest time. Mostly, it was due to the fact that an amateur would have a hard time justifying the usually skyscraper-high price tag of a full frame. The professional, however, could easily shell out that kind of money, because the quality (and the work requirement) justified it.
However, there is now a new movement. A movement to put the prowess of a pro-grade camera into the hands of serious hobbyists (or professionals who are tight on funds). The new trend is marked by the Nikon D600, a "budget" full frame DSLR from Nikon that was announced on September 13.
Probably the worst kept secret in the history of photography product launches, the D600 packs in a sweet 24 megapixel full frame sensor. If you're a number junkie, that's 2 whole megapixels more than Canon's 5D MarkIII and 3 more than the 5D MarkII, which can be had for about the same price as the D600, but it is an old camera.
The Nikon D600 has a lot going for itself. What we like so far:
- Solid magnesium alloy build with weather sealing.
- 24 megapixel full frame sensor with excellent dynamic range.
- 5.5 frames per second burst mode. A little slow, but enough for casual shooting.
- Comfortable grip.
- 39 AF points with 9 cross type.
What we do not like about the Nikon D600 so far:
- The camera has uneven weight distribution. It tends to dip towards the left quite heavily.
- Dual SD-Card slots. We'd have liked to see at least one CF card slot.
- No USB 3.0
We're going to be putting the Nikon D600 a lot of testing in the coming few days, so stay tuned for our in-depth review of this new budget full frame DSLR that is set to change a lot in the photography world.

Helming the kitchen at Tatsu is the affable and knowledgable Chef Tadashi Inose. Tadashi-san believes in serving authentic Japanese cuisine made with the freshest ingredients available and is constantly offering seasonal promotions to guests as he wants to bring the best of Japan's cuisine to KL gourmands.
The restaurant has a Sushi Bar, Teppanyaki Counter, main dining room, lounge and four private dining rooms.
We started our meal on a high note, with the shake to hotate no usutsukuri goma abura ponzu (RM97), whereby thinly sliced salmon and scallops are marinated with sesame oil and Japanese lime (sudachi). Pop each slice of salmon + scallop with the ikura and micro shiso - so good! Tastes fresh and light and the tart ponzu dressing awakened our palates.
Beautifully plated!
Sashimi is one of my biggest food love, so imagine my delight when we were served this exquisite assorted sashimi platter. This beautiful platter features 5 types of sashimi, namely tuna (maguro akami) served in a teapot, aori ika (cuttlefish), tako (boiled octopus), flash-cooked tuna belly (toro) and salmon belly (shake harasu). There is also a beautifully crafted radish flower with tobiko in the centre.
We were told that seafood is flown in twice a week from Japan to ensure the freshness. Served with hand-grated fresh wasabi. Everything tasted so good, in particular the salmon belly (I'm in heaven) and usually I do not like cuttlefish, but this was so fresh and good, Hubby had to concede the last piece to me. :P
Freshly grated wasabi :)
Salmon belly sashimi
Tuna belly
For the kids, we ordered a bowl of udon for them to share, topped with wakame and soft boiled egg.
For main course, we had the Australian Wagyu beef sirloin teppanyaki (RM373.50 for 200g), served medium as well as the salmon teppanyaki (RM49). The Wagyu beef tasted simply amazing, so tender and melt-in-the-mouth, tinged with the teppanyaki sauce. It was served with a lentil stew, some greens and Eryngii mushrooms. Even the kids kept asking us to feed them more of the beef. The salmon was also beautifully cooked, topped with toasted rice for texture.
For dessert, we had the mochi ice cream (belgium chocolate coated in mochi) as well as green tea ice cream :)
For the full dinner menu, please view here.
Opening times: Lunch 12pm-2.30pm; Dinner 6.30pm-10.30pm.
Location: Tatsu Japanese Restaurant, Level 1, InterContinental Hotel Kuala Lumpur, 165 Jalan Ampang, 50450 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Most important thing in savings is to make sure it is safe! Despite of period and purpose of savings Safety comes first. Below are some methods to make sure your savings are protected:
• Inflation-proof
Inflation has a negative effect in the savings. Time Value of money is lost due to inflation. To over come this invest in instruments which earns best interest for your savings.
• Watch out bonus rates
There are many banks boost the interest rates for a temporary period to attract more deposits. These bonus rates end after the specified period and savings will lesser interest after that period. Make sure you have a note of these end dates and re-deposit in a savings appropriately.
• Foreign banks
In case you have savings in foreign banks you should check and know whether those banks are safe and licenced to carry out banking operations. Have the peace of mind after you deposit your hard earn money in a safer bank.
• Safeguard from tax
In most of the countries interest income from the savings is treated as a form of income which is taxable. Diversify your savings so you don't get hold to Taxable income category. If you are not sure get an investor advisors help to plan out your savings.
• Deposit appropriately and Evade savings charge
Select the savings accounts based on the need of you. If you want to withdraw in a short term deposit appropriate for the period. Than deposit in a longer period tempting for the higher interst rate. Keep in mind when you deposit for a longer period and you want to withdraw before the due date you won't get the promised interest and there will be penalty charge for pre mature withdrawal.

Florida is about to join other medical cannabis friendly states by putting the Compassionate Medical Cannabis Act into action. As many Floridians rejoice to have the opportunity to try medical cannabis, they may be slightly disappointed when they learn the details of the bill.
The Compassionate Medical Cannabis Act was passed in 2014 and set to go into action on January 1, 2015. After two years of patiently waiting, next Tuesday will be the first day that medical cannabis will be available for residents of Florida.
The Compassionate Medical Cannabis Act is highly regulated. Perhaps even over-regulated to some extent. To qualify for a cannabis prescription, you must have a terminal condition. Florida defines a terminal condition as follows.
"A progressive disease or medical or surgical condition that causes significant functional impairment, and is not considered by the treating physician to be reversible even with the administration of available treatment options currently approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration, and, without the administration of life-sustaining procedures, will result in death within one year after diagnosis, if the condition runs its normal course."
So what ailments qualify you for a medical cannabis card in Florida? Cancer and any other physical conditions that cause severe chronic seizures and muscle spasms will allow you to receive a medical cannabis prescription. However, those approved for a medical cannabis prescription are limited to only low-THC strains.
Florida Compassionate Medical Cannabis Act by The Daily Haze on Scribd
Along with being limited to low-THC strains, The Compassionate Medical Cannabis Act does not make it legal to administer your cannabis by smoking it. It will remain illegal to smoke cannabis regardless of your patient status. Patients are also strictly prohibited from passing on their medicine to anybody else.
If you do have a chronic illness, and would like to explore the options of a low-THC treatment, here are some of the other requirements needed to obtain your patient card. First and foremost, you must be a Florida resident and be able to provide proof of your residency. This is a universal law among medical friendly states.
Patients or legal guardians must provide their physician with written consent to use cannabis as a treatment. The physician must also register every patient with the Compassionate Use Registry. The physician is who has to order the patient's medical cannabis prescription. For more information, the address for the Office of Compassionate Use is below.

|Canadian Military Heritage Gateway
The tortured were kept alive throughout the night, and revived if they passed out from the pain. Iroquoians adapted a form of sun worship in which the prisoner was finally put out of his misery when the sun rose in the morning. Cannibalism was not uncommon. Those who were particularly stoic would have their heart cooked and distributed among the young men to eat.

Miller notes that these practices were both sun worship and a masculine "cult of prestige". (p.13) By eating a portion of a brave soldier's heart, the young men could gain some of their captive's bravery. Interestingly, after contact, Europeans also participated in the desecration of their Native opponent's bodies. Desmond Morton notes is his A Military History of Canada that while such mutilation was part of Iroquoian religious ceremony, the Europeans had no such cultural justification for their actions.

Hi lovelies, I'm writing you from the mountains of North Carolina. Jake and I met up with some family for a little fall getaway. In fact, you might have seen this pic of the little guy on a very large pumpkin over the weekend.
So far we've just been relaxing in the cabin, drinking wine and enjoying the fire. It's been very cozy and has inspired me to really enjoy fall to its fullest. And nothing says fall like a good glass of red wine. These vino accessories from Viva Terra have me feeling the love.
This reclaimed wood wine rack, is great! It's such a nice size and I love the character.
Four little wine glasses in a cute caddy reminds me of sipping wine with friends in a cozy little bistro.
And for the ultimate in ambiance, a wine barrel table! Whenever I see these at wineries or wine bars, I totally want one and now I know just where to find one.
I always forget how much I love Viva Terra, I mean they have some seriously great stuff! What do you think? Are you feeling the wine love?

Australian-born musician and DJ Raja Ram has certainly led an illustrious existence. A classically trained flute player, Ram moved to the UK in the '60s and co-founded the psychedelic rock band Quintessence. Quintessence had a successful run through the '70s but disbanded towards the end of the decade and in the '80s Ram started to explore the expressive possibilities of electronic music. Since then his chief focus has been psychedelic trance, which is heard on the Mystery of the Yeti concept album and with the group's 1200 Micrograms and The Infinity Project.
However, Ram is perhaps most widely recognised for the ambient psychedelia he and Simon Posford have been making since the mid-'90s under the name Shpongle. On the cusp of his 73rd birthday, Raja Ram will be back in Australia to showcase the two sides of his late-career personality, headlining next week's Earthcore 20th Anniversary event.
"On the Saturday night I'm doing a Shpongle DJ set and then on the Sunday I'm closing the party with my full-power banging set," he says. "One is quieter, that's the Shpongle set, and the full-on one's going to be, I hope, where everybody takes their shoes off and gets crazy."
Although the comprehensive Shpongle live show won't be on display at the festival, Ram assures that the Earthcore audience will still be treated to an immersive Shpongle experience.
"When it says 'Shpongle DJ set', I'll only play Shpongle music, from the last five albums. I don't do any auxiliary instrument along with that performance. I'm just playing it on CDs – there's nothing but my moustache and the creation that I've done with Simon Posford."
Shpongle's fifth album Museum of Consciousness came out in late July and is characterised by the duo's trademark calming eccentricity. The record is a densely layered artefact, featuring a number of extended compositions with titles such as The Aquatic Garden of Extra-Celestial Delights and Ram details the massive effort that goes into making a Shpongle record.
"Our albums take forever to make. I can make a trance record in two weeks with 1200 Micrograms. With Shpongle I think the quickest we've ever done is three years, and that's just to make seven tracks! It's not because we're slow, it's because the music is incredibly intricate; we've got up to maybe 300 different layers of sound per track. It's just extremely technical and complicated music."
Although Shpongle is a two-man project in the studio, executing the recorded sounds onstage requires an enormous assemblage of musicians and performers. Due to the complexity of the onstage arrangement Ram explains that Shpongle live shows are actually somewhat rare.
"We do about three or four a year, big shows, because it's too massive. The Shpongle full show is a mighty difficult beast to tame and put on because there's just so many people and it's such a big production. Seventeen people onstage, acrobats and the whole business – it's a giant show."
Museum of Consciousness has been well received by Shpongle's longstanding supporters and the band's curious universe continues to recruit new listeners. Ram relates that the record's strong sales performance will send the entire touring lineup to some prestigious and unexpected locations across the globe.
"This will certainly be our biggest seller worldwide and because of it we're getting some phenomenal offers coming in around the world to play at various events. The venue in America called Red Rocks, which is an amphitheatre in Colorado – around 12,000 people outdoors with a view of the Rocky Mountains and the sunsets. It's the best venue in America without doubt; we're going out there in May next year. We've got Russia and Israel and many things really taking off for us."
Shpongle's popularity has been on a steady incline since the release of their 1999 debut Are You Shpongled? Although at a glance their music might appear to have merely niche appeal, Ram reports that their unique genre fusion attracts fans from a wide range of ages and cultures.
"Children like it, grandparents like it – I went to my dentist the other day in London and he was playing it. Trance music and all the other genres are in a very limited corral of people listening to them. With Shpongle, it seems to have an amazing crossover and wherever you go in the world, whether it's India or Australia, people are sitting on their hammocks or sitting around in their living rooms playing Shpongle."
The fact that their music transcends the usual demographic boundaries is a true vindication of the experimental impulse that gave rise to Shpongle in the first place. Ram reveals the genesis of Shpongle's sonic idiosyncrasies.
"We just wanted to do something that we heard in our heads and try to recreate that psychedelic experience without the use of drugs. So we had to delve very deep into our own psyche and consciousness to extract that information and then realise it and manifest it through music, which is quite difficult. You may have a great idea but to put that idea out and make it musical is quite a challenge."
Despite this admitted difficulty, Ram goes on to state his belief that Shpongle have achieved something musically unprecedented.
"I think we've created a new genre with this music because certainly nobody else is doing it in the world and we've hit upon a very rich seam of minerals and jewels that we can distribute."
Shpongle's specific yet almost intangible artistic vision – to aurally project the sensations of a psychedelic trip – evidently necessitates a crafty creative approach. Ram indicates that their songs largely stem from feeling rather than technique.
"We often go into the studio and we don't work on a musical level, though we're both trained classical musicians. I'll say, 'Look there's a shimmering lake up in the sky and something comes out of the water, a Goddess, and then we have a conversation,' and so forth. It's very visual imagery but we convert that into sound. It's a strange way of working for sure," he explains.
The results are indeed fascinating and Museum of Consciousness possesses the capacity to lure in and intoxicate the listener. Ram is pleased about the band's ever-increasing following but accruing a massive fanbase was never their major intention.
"It's artistically satisfying and that's what we set out to do. I'm thrilled that people love it and it's selling and it's on a snowball effect, but that really wasn't the motivation behind it," says Ram. "The motivation's really to make something with me and Simon that really excites the both of us and we can find some new directions to go in every album and then share it with the world."
The Shpongle organism continues to evolve and Ram is very excited to return to his home country and share the latest Shpongle sounds with the Earthcore audience.
"I'm just thrilled to be able to come back and share it with my fellow Australians and have a great time and meet everybody again. It's an amazing privilege and I want to say thank you to Spiro who is the best promoter and I'll do my very best to make it a great show for you all."
SHPONGLE plays at Earthcore's 20th Anniversary which runs from Friday November 29 – Sunday December 1 in Pyalong, Victoria.

Vale had a great chance to take the lead when Leon Constantine broke through on goal but he dragged his second-half shot disappointingly wide.
The League One side paid the price as Baros slotted home an angled shot before nodding in at the far post.
Nathan Lowndes flicked in a header to give Vale hope but Steven Davis' late diving header sealed Villa's win.
Villa had had a forgettable first half as they failed to find a cutting edge and the home crowd quickly became restless.
They had more of the possession but only had an 18-yard shot from midfielder James Milner, which keeper Mark Goodlad gathered at the second attempt, to show for their early efforts.
The visitors were disciplined in defence and almost caught the Premiership side out on the counter-attack when Michael Husbands whipped in a right-wing cross from which Sam Togwell mistimed a six-yard header over to the relief of the home defence.
Villa were struggling to make their Premiership status count and their frustration was summed up when Baros spurned a double chance.
Firstly, the striker latched on to a diagonal ball by Davis but saw his shot blocked by the alert Goodlad before he turned and blazed over when the ball was played back into the box.
Angel headed over as Villa's struggles continued and there were some boos as they went in at half-time.
Milner lashed an angled shot over after the break and Villa's woes only served to raise Vale's confidence.
And Constantine had a great chance when he had a clear run on goal only to drag his shot wide.
The miss proved costly as Villa substitute Kevin Phillips had an instant impact by playing Baros through for the Czech Republic forward to angle a shot into the bottom corner of Goodlad's goal.
Baros was then in the right place at the right time as Olof Mellberg headed on Milner's corner to the far post and the striker had the simplest of finishes.
Lowndes pulled one back for Vale as they set up a tense finish before Davis eased Villa's nerves with his late goal.
"It was lovely to have a senior player like him on the bench to be able
to call upon instead of having kids. He quickly made his presence known.
"He has done well for us this season, somebody I wish I could have signed a
couple of years ago, and having him back will give us competition up front.
"Milan Baros is a threat and will score you goals. That is the type of striker he is.
"Sometimes they might not do much but they are always there in the box.
Michael Owen is the same at times but you judge them on their goals.
"Anyone with the pace of Milan is a threat. He will always enjoy the way we
play and will always get his chances."
"Villa were a bit nervous because of their crowd and we got to half-time
being level which was our main objective after frustrating them.
"They scored at the right time and I thought the second goal had killed the
game off but we then had a real go at them. They were on the back foot and we
had three or four good chances.
"Sean Doherty had a couple of good opportunities and on another day they
might have gone in but we played well and, like I said, felt we could have got
something here."

"We're in the midst of what I would call the gathering perfect storm," Rosemary Bakes-Martin, El Paso County public health administrator, said Monday at a "State of Public Health" address.
Pressure caused by underfunding and understaffing has made the department increasingly reactive rather than proactive, she said. The health department is no longer able to thoroughly investigate some types of serious outbreaks, increasing the risk that disease will spread. For instance, the department has largely given up on investigating cases of chlamydia, and has limited the scope of investigations of cases of gonorrhea.
Routine restaurant inspections are far behind, leading to more complaints from consumers. With inspectors tied up investigating complaints, routine inspections will continue to take a backseat, exacerbating the problem. Bakes-Martin said she sees the day coming when inspections will be limited to investigating serious complaints and an initial inspection when a restaurant opens.
The county could ask voters in November for a tax increase to fund services like those provided by the health department and sheriff's office. JAS
Boedecker leaves S-CAP job
Linda Boedecker resigned April 4 as executive director of the Southern Colorado Aids Project, after three years in the position.
"We accepted her resignation, though we certainly didn't ask her to leave," S-CAP board president Bill Mead said in confirming Boedecker's departure. "Linda has been a big advocate and a great mover for S-CAP. Fortunately, we have a great staff to carry on."
Mead says board members will help more in preparation for S-CAP's major annual fundraiser, the Red Ribbon Ball, on May 16 at the Colorado Springs Marriott.
A search has begun for Boedecker's replacement, and interested applicants should contact Bill Scharton at 578-9092. Mead said the board hopes to have a replacement by June 15. RR
Police report crime decrease
Colorado Springs crime dropped overall in 2007, but forcible rapes and homicides increased, according to the city police department's annual crime report.
Springs police investigated 285 reported rapes in 2007, up from 256 the previous year. There were 27 killings, including two men who died in a January arson fire, two sisters shot at New Life Church, and one justifiable homicide in which a liquor-store owner killed a would-be robber.
Robberies were down for the year by 13 percent, and police saw an overall drop of nearly 8 percent for the violent crimes of homicide, rape, robbery and aggravated assault. AL
Randolph elected W-P mayor
Steve Randolph, a member of Woodland Park's City Council since 2002, will become the city's new mayor after a convincing victory in the mail-in election that ended Tuesday. Randolph, 63, defeated Darwin Naccarato 846 to 451.
"It's a nice feeling, because I didn't have a single sign in anybody's yard, or on the street anywhere," says Randolph, who counted on voters approving of his work on City Council. He will take over as mayor on April 17, creating a vacancy on Council. An appointed replacement, who will serve until 2010, will be named in the next few weeks.
Three other City Council positions were decided, with incumbents George Parkhurst (960 votes) and Jon DeVaux (932) prevailing along with newcomer Betty Clark-Wine (901). Val Carr was fourth (646). RR
GAO looks into Musgrave's concerns on Pion Canyon
Federal investigators will check into U.S. Rep. Marilyn Musgrave's concerns about the legality of an Army study relating to Fort Carson's proposed expansion of training grounds in southeast Colorado.
"Please investigate and confirm that this [Army study] and any funds allocated to perform the study are not being used in violation of federal law," Musgrave wrote in a Feb. 27 letter to Ralph Dawn, a congressional relations director for the Government Accountability Office.
The request "was accepted and wrapped into ongoing work we are doing for the House Armed Services Committee that looks at the Army's land acquisition strategies," GAO spokesman Chuck Young said this week, adding that "the report is expected to be complete sometime later this year." Young declined further comment. MdY
Don't get nickel and dimed
The Easy Park system, which allows use of prepaid cards, rather than change, at parking meters, is expanding its reach this month to more of downtown and all of Old Colorado City. More than half the city's meters will take the cards by the end of the year, with more to come in 2009.
Easy Park automatically gives you maximum time at a meter, but if you come back before time expires, it allows you to "check out" and charges you only for the minutes you were there. The cards can be "reloaded" with more cash.
They're available at the Kiowa Street and Bijou Street/Cascade Avenue parking garages; the City Administration Building parking garage (on Nevada Avenue); the Parking System office in the City Administration Building; and online at easypark.springsgov.com. Cards can be reloaded at kiosks at 218 N. Tejon St., 6 S. Tejon St., 107 N. Nevada Ave. and 2418 W. Colorado Ave. JAS

CC students assess mountain states in annual report
Per capita shares of public land are shrinking, and many communities in Rocky Mountain states face a shortage of affordable housing, according to Colorado College students who authored the fifth annual State of the Rockies Report Card released this week.
Students spent weeks doing research for the report last summer, and the final report includes chapters on immigration, renewable energy, river restoration, affordable housing and extractive industries.
Former Interior Secretary Gale Norton was among the speakers at an early April conference for the project. The report is available online at coloradocollege.edu/stateoftherockies. AL
Hotline for racially profiled
A new hotline aims to fight back against racial profiling and discrimination by Colorado police. The nonprofit Colorado Progressive Coalition, in cooperation with civil rights leaders, launched the hotline April 8, citing the need for greater accountability from law enforcement. Callers will be helped with finding legal assistance and filing formal complaints.
The hotline is sometimes manned, but most callers will be asked to leave a message. Calls will be returned within 24 hours in either English or Spanish. Call 866/329-0908. JAS
New trees for an old burn
Efforts to bring back the forest destroyed by the Hayman fire will continue this spring as officials transport more than 130,000 one-year-old seedlings to be planted on 970 acres of the burn area.
Tree-planting efforts have gone forward each year since the 2002 fire, which seared nearly 140,000 acres in Teller, Park, Douglas and Jefferson counties. According to the U.S. Forest Service, the cost to plant trees runs about $600 for each acre. The goal is to plant the trees immediately after snow melts so they can get established before the soil dries out. AL

Prosecutors likely to toss thousands of tainted drug cases
- by Doris Stokes
- in U.S.
- — Apr 19, 2017
Tainted by former MA chemist Annie Dookhan, thousands of drug cases are set to be dismissed. She served three years in prison for evidence tampering and was released on parole in April 2016.
Prosecutors said they chose to re-prosecute defendants with lengthy criminal histories.
Numerous drug case defendants have already completed their sentences, though some probably remain in prison because of other charges not contaminated by the lab scandal.
According to the American Civil Liberties Union of MA, the cases were particularly damaging to "low-income and black and brown" communities.
"It's great for the people who were convicted by this evidence because they can finally get out from underneath the crippling collateral consequences of a drug conviction", said Matthew Segal, legal director of the ACLU of MA, the Boston Herald reported. "Annie Dookhan, the "rogue" chemist at the center of this debacle, was free to falsify drug lab results for eight full years because the system is created to facilitate convictions, while simultaneously being utterly ill-equipped to either provide equal justice to defendants or restore justice to the wrongfully convicted".
"These cases were identified in close collaboration with our local police departments and are Superior Court cases involving serious drug offenses, where sufficient independent evidence remains available for retesting", Marian Ryan, the district attorney, said in a statement. Investigators and former colleagues have said the Trinidadian immigrant seemed driven by a compulsion to overachieve, even if it meant making things up or cutting corners. She became the lab's most prolific analyst, which impressed her bosses but raised concern among colleagues.
The prosecutors fought for a way to preserve the convictions, and leave it to the defendants to challenge them. So the Supreme Judicial Court, the state's highest court, came up with a solution, after declaring Dookhan's deeds "government misconduct that has cast a shadow over the entire criminal justice system". Next, the prosecutors must send a court-approved letter to those defendants whose cases are not dismissed, notifying them of the opportunity to reopen their cases and also providing a "hotline" phone number to public defenders for guidance.

Three basic pillars on which Nokia Android phones are built
Nokia 6 users are now receiving updates, bringing Android Nougat version 7.1.1 and April 2017 security patch to the smartphones. HMD Global, the Finnish company with exclusive rights to market the Nokia brand, is working on two new high-end smartphones.
The prosecutors delivered their answers individually Tuesday at the Suffolk County Courthouse in Boston.
Essex County DA Jonathan Blodgett said he would retry 55 cases, but agreed to dismiss 5,160, according to NBC News.
Suffolk County District Attorney Daniel Conley, whose jurisdiction includes Boston, moved on Tuesday to dismiss all but 117 of the approximately 7,500 suspect cases there.
But defense lawyers and civil rights advocates said the dubious convictions made it hard for defendants to find jobs and housing or to obtain student loans. More than 20,000 convictions of those remained against so-called "Dookhan Defendants". In other cases, non-citizens were threatened with deportation.
Annie Dookhan pleaded guilty to tampering with evidence and falsifying thousands of tests in criminal drug cases, calling into question evidence used to prosecute the defendants. "It is a necessary and long-overdue outcome, given our criminal justice system's responsibility to ensure a level playing field for all, regardless of the offense".
Dookhan worked at the state lab for a decade before her exposure in 2012.
"I think the situation might have been different at an accredited lab because there would have been more eyes looking", said Jack Mario, a retired seized-drug laboratory chemist who acted as a consultant in the Dookhan investigation.

Great news from the community of Birth workers in New York that has many of us shouting for joy and some of us just glad the news is out.
As a student of midwifery I have learned enough about breech deliveries to know that delivering babies breech is very possible when educated in the proper techniques. It is all to normal for me to be shocked upon hearing news that an obstetrician in a hospital has delivered healthy babies who've been in a breech position.
My path to midwifery is leading me up a road led by ground shaking, standard setting, statistic proving, midwives known to be the Farm Midwives of Summertown, Tennessee who have pioneered modern day midwifery and gained the respect back for the ancient practice. My education with these wonderful woman has allowed me to learn about the different techniques that are used to delivery breech babies. These techniques are not generally taught in Universities anymore to students of Maternal-Fetal Medicine & Obstetrics & Gynecology. Reasons such as this is why many women are opting to study the ancient craft of midwifery to gain the hands on experience as well as the educational portion of the practice instead of just going to a University and only learning everything from a text.
I am grateful to have wonderful teachers that prepare me for a career of unexpected events that will allow me to save lives and empower a mum through her labor.
With the sketchy laws in NYC still tippy toeing around midwifery being illegal depending on what certification the Professional has. It is good to know that mums who op't for hospital births can trust that some OBGYNs are prepared for the unexpected at birth without having to consider unnecessary interventions.
For Mum's expecting and or possibly having a breech delivery, here is the Dr. you should know about…
Dr Georges Sylvestre at Flushing Hospital.

(This article was first published in print in issue 2 of the Philippine Collegian on 20 June 2012.)
The ad is deceitful in its simplicity. It shows an elegantly styled woman standing against a black background and quantifying her mixed heritage. Jasmine Curtis-Smith, one of the featured models, has been labelled as "50% Australian, 50% Filipino." Its accompanying manifesto suggests that, with race, as with clothes, it is all about mixing and matching.
In the course of a week, the "What's Your Mix?" campaign launched by Bayo has reaped an assortment of reactions from social media networks. Some fashionistas and designers see it as a refreshing clothing campaign due to its minimalist approach and rationale. On the other hand, critics dubbed it insensitive, tasteless, and outright racist due to its supposed privileging of foreign heritage.
While the campaign is currently a hot topic, it is but a speck in the universe of advertising, the nature of which is to sell products and secure profit, as made possible by creating aspirations and promoting questionable commodities.
What's your mix?
In our current global economy, race and ethnicity are recognized as critical market segments. As early as 1994, at least half of the biggest companies in the world have been employing ethnic or racial marketing strategies.
In the early 90's, clothing brands such as the United Colors of Benetton have made a reputation more for their racially-loaded ad campaigns rather than their actual clothes. Perhaps, in its attempt to laud mixed heritage, Bayo is eyeing to enter the global market by insinuating that Filipino blood can always make it in the world arena.
As the "What's Your Mix?" campaign proves, using racial and ethnic diversity in advertising is a rather tricky business. On one hand, while it promotes a sense of inclusivity and belongingness, it also remains to be a sensitive, if not outright taboo, subject matter.
Conversations about race and ethnicity usually entail an examination, if not an affirmation, of biological, cultural and personal identity, conjuring sentiments about national identity and identity confusion. If not done in good taste, a well-meaning call for tolerance could be seen as discriminatory or racist, demonstrating the irony that the more we push for diversity, the more we breed intolerance.
While the ad aims to celebrate a mixed heritage, it polarizes views on what heritage should be. For some, the ad is a celebration of Filipino blood. For others, it is a glorification of the foreign. The campaign, which initially served as a celebration of being Filipino, became an avenue to examine what it means to be Filipino. While advertising campaigns seem to be an odd place to look for definitions of national identity, its changing images serve as a testament to our fluctuating national sentiment.
Soft sell
It remains a wonder how a few skewed percentages and a poorly worded manifesto could spark a debate on racism, on heritage, and on what it means to be Filipino. But, as Sut Jhally, an Indian advertising critic, stipulates, the power of advertising comes, "not from the ingenuity of advertisers, but from the need for meaning".
The percentages, while seemingly baseless, intend to show that Filipino blood makes the featured models beautiful and world class. However, the best that the ratio did was to quantify race and ethnicity and make the models seem like fractured beings. The manifesto, on the other hand, simplifies the phenomenon of mixed heritage by comparing it with the mixing and matching of clothes.
As Roland Tolentino, a critic of popular culture, contends, what is not stated in the mixed-race politics of Bayo is the literal violence behind the union of the said races. For example, some Amerasians are a result of American-Filipino unions in the red light districts surrounding the Subic and Clark Air Bases. Some Japinos, on the other hand, are not recognized by their Japanese fathers, with the Filipina mothers working in Japan.
By stipulating that a mixed heritage is simply "all about mixing and matching", the ad glosses over the rather violent histories of how inter-racial unions came to be. The campaign tripped over the fact that one's heritage is not always subject to freedom of choice, but is a product of specific historical moments.
Hot commodity
In the current global market, the concept of race remains a hot commodity. As with the example of Bayo, the actual value of the clothes that they are selling has been overshadowed by the attractiveness of a mixed heritage as the premium commodity.
Advertising ascribes a certain mystique to commodities in order to promote the consumption of goods and services that aid the construction of cultural identity. As with the case of Bayo, this commodity fetishism reaffirms desires and aspirations for a mixed heritage as a cultural commodity, with the advertisers acting as cultural intermediaries.
Commodity racism, as Celia Lury states, has contributed to shifts in the operation of racism, from a biological understanding of race to a racism where race has become "a cultural category in which racial identity is represented as a matter of style, and is the subject of choice".
The contention remains apparent due to the proliferation of ad campaigns banking on the myth of diversity. However, there still remains a political hierarchy when it comes to race. As much as Bayo attempted to celebrate mixed heritage, it ultimately failed since it did not assert the existence of a political minority and merely retained the cultural status quo, which is bent on glorifying foreign heritage and belittling ethnic lineage.
The packaging of heritage, alongside the far-reaching processes of globalization and its inherent importance within racial discourse, demonstrates the significance of commodification in our seemingly diverse world. Its influence permeates every conscious human endeavour and transforms every sphere of human activity into a good or service that can be bought and sold in the market, stripping even heritage of its essence by making it an object of consumption.

Chapter XIX. The Prince with the peasants.
When the King awoke in the early morning, he found that a wet but thoughtful rat had crept into the place during the night and made a cosy bed for itself in his bosom. Being disturbed now, it scampered away. The boy smiled, and said, "Poor fool, why so fearful? I am as forlorn as thou. 'Twould be a sham in me to hurt the helpless, who am myself so helpless. Moreover, I owe you thanks for a good omen; for when a king has fallen so low that the very rats do make a bed of him, it surely meaneth that his fortunes be upon the turn, since it is plain he can no lower go."
He got up and stepped out of the stall, and just then he heard the sound of children's voices. The barn door opened and a couple of little girls came in. As soon as they saw him their talking and laughing ceased, and they stopped and stood still, gazing at him with strong curiosity; they presently began to whisper together, then they approached nearer, and stopped again to gaze and whisper. By-and-by they gathered courage and began to discuss him aloud. One said —
"He hath a comely face."
The other added —
"And pretty hair."
"But is ill clothed enow."
"And how starved he looketh."
They came still nearer, sidling shyly around and about him, examining him minutely from all points, as if he were some strange new kind of animal, but warily and watchfully the while, as if they half feared he might be a sort of animal that would bite, upon occasion. Finally they halted before him, holding each other's hands for protection, and took a good satisfying stare with their innocent eyes; then one of them plucked up all her courage and inquired with honest directness —
"Who art thou, boy?"
"I am the King," was the grave answer.
The children gave a little start, and their eyes spread themselves wide open and remained so during a speechless half minute. Then curiosity broke the silence —
"The KING? What King?"
"The King of England."
The children looked at each other — then at him — then at each other again — wonderingly, perplexedly; then one said —
"Didst hear him, Margery? — he said he is the King. Can that be true?"
"How can it be else but true, Prissy? Would he say a lie? For look you, Prissy, an' it were not true, it WOULD be a lie. It surely would be. Now think on't. For all things that be not true, be lies — thou canst make nought else out of it."
It was a good tight argument, without a leak in it anywhere; and it left Prissy's half-doubts not a leg to stand on. She considered a moment, then put the King upon his honour with the simple remark —
"If thou art truly the King, then I believe thee."
"I am truly the King."
This settled the matter. His Majesty's royalty was accepted without further question or discussion, and the two little girls began at once to inquire into how he came to be where he was, and how he came to be so unroyally clad, and whither he was bound, and all about his affairs. It was a mighty relief to him to pour out his troubles where they would not be scoffed at or doubted; so he told his tale with feeling, forgetting even his hunger for the time; and it was received with the deepest and tenderest sympathy by the gentle little maids. But when he got down to his latest experiences and they learned how long he had been without food, they cut him short and hurried him away to the farmhouse to find a breakfast for him.
The King was cheerful and happy now, and said to himself, "When I am come to mine own again, I will always honour little children, remembering how that these trusted me and believed in me in my time of trouble; whilst they that were older, and thought themselves wiser, mocked at me and held me for a liar."
The children's mother received the King kindly, and was full of pity; for his forlorn condition and apparently crazed intellect touched her womanly heart. She was a widow, and rather poor; consequently she had seen trouble enough to enable her to feel for the unfortunate. She imagined that the demented boy had wandered away from his friends or keepers; so she tried to find out whence he had come, in order that she might take measures to return him; but all her references to neighbouring towns and villages, and all her inquiries in the same line went for nothing — the boy's face, and his answers, too, showed that the things she was talking of were not familiar to him. He spoke earnestly and simply about court matters, and broke down, more than once, when speaking of the late King 'his father'; but whenever the conversation changed to baser topics, he lost interest and became silent.
The woman was mightily puzzled; but she did not give up. As she proceeded with her cooking, she set herself to contriving devices to surprise the boy into betraying his real secret. She talked about cattle — he showed no concern; then about sheep — the same result: so her guess that he had been a shepherd boy was an error; she talked about mills; and about weavers, tinkers, smiths, trades and tradesmen of all sorts; and about Bedlam, and jails, and charitable retreats: but no matter, she was baffled at all points. Not altogether, either; for she argued that she had narrowed the thing down to domestic service. Yes, she was sure she was on the right track, now; he must have been a house servant. So she led up to that. But the result was discouraging. The subject of sweeping appeared to weary him; fire-building failed to stir him; scrubbing and scouring awoke no enthusiasm. The goodwife touched, with a perishing hope, and rather as a matter of form, upon the subject of cooking. To her surprise, and her vast delight, the King's face lighted at once! Ah, she had hunted him down at last, she thought; and she was right proud, too, of the devious shrewdness and tact which had accomplished it.

I am loving how quick the hexagons come together to create a flower. After glueing the fabric to the papers it is just a matter of choosing which fabric complements the next and then sewing the hexagons together.

Thanks for this giveaway, hope I'm lucky this time.

I have never made a hexie. To me they are very old fashioned. I love them but they look hard. I have no idea how to make them. I would have to get a pattern and go on YouTube and watch a video and then I could probably make them. I would love to win some!!!! Today is the first time I've been to your blog. I found it through a woman from Ireland. I'm from the USA. Hope I win!!! Nice site! I will be checking it on my tours of blogs.

Where does one even start?
- Portable (love this!), it actually means I get to do sewing during my break at work.
- Pretty. Let's face it hexagon flowers are sooooo cute!
- Scraps - I finely get to use up all my tidbits of fabric that have been lying around.
- Fussy cutting - Love creating super cute flowers that have either a fussy cut centre or petals.
- Rewarding - every time I complete another flower and see my stack grow higher I could jump for joy.

Waiting time is no longer wasted time. It is a conversation starter as others watch you stitch away. It has a lovely traditional feel. And so many of us feel the same...........

Horror stories about being introduced
In the September 2016 issue of Speaker magazine (from the National Speakers Association in the U.S.) there is a useful article on pages 30 to 32 by Glenn Strange titled When Introductions Go Bad. Glenn tells some horror stories about how he has been introduced, and why you need to write your own introduction. In a sidebar he provides 15 Tips to Ensure Success.
The Toastmasters International web site has a web page linked to a downloadable guide for Creating an Introduction from their Better Speaker Series.
