Women in prison movies (often shortened to WIP) are a kind of exploitation movie. Usually, they show women in a prison setting. These women are subjected to sex and violence. The first such movies were made in the 1930s. Usually male fantasies influence them more than the reality in women's prisons.
Movie critics do not agree on the historical role (of the movies). On the one hand, they are usually cheaply produced, and many stereotypes. On the other hand. they were among the first movies to show women who were not loving housewives. They created a role for a women who has to fight against the dominance of men.

Story
Shrek (voiced by Mike Myers) is a green ogre who always loves living peacefully in the swamp. However, he finds many fairytale creatures disrupting his privacy. This is because of the order by Lord Farquaad (voiced by John Lithgow). Shrek goes along with Donkey (voiced by Eddie Murphy) to ask Farquaad to give his privacy back. Farquaad wants to be King by marrying Princess Fiona (voiced by Cameron Diaz) to be Queen.
Farquaad orders Shrek and Donkey to travel for Fiona and bring her to Farquaad. After trying to get Fiona from the castle, Fiona is happy that she is rescued, but soon becomes sad that the knight is an ogre. Shrek forces Fiona to travel with him and Donkey, with Shrek and Fiona finding they have more in common with each other along the way, and falling in love. However, at night, Fiona refuses to camp with them, taking shelter in a nearby cave until morning. Shrek and Donkey stay awake and watch the stars while Shrek informs Donkey that he plans to build a 10-foot wall around his swamp when he returns. When Donkey keeps on asking Shrek why he is doing this, Shrek sadly tells him that everyone judges him before they know him; so he thinks he is better off alone, despite Donkey's saying that he did not immediately judge him when they first met.
The next night, Donkey finds Fiona in a windmill. Donkey finds that Fiona has turned into an ogress. She tells Donkey that she was cursed as a child and turns into an ogress every night. This is why she was locked away in the castle. She also says that only a kiss from her true love will return her to her "love's true form". Shrek, about to confess his feelings for Fiona, overhears part of their conversation, and is heartbroken as he misinterprets her disgust at her transformation into an "ugly beast" as being disgusted with him. Fiona makes Donkey promise not to tell Shrek about the spell, vowing to do it herself, but when the next morning comes, Shrek has brought Lord Farquaad to Fiona. The two return to the castle, while a hurt Shrek returns to the now-vacated swamp.
After finding out that despite is privacy that he misses Fiona very much, Donkey gets mad at Shrek, and Shrek tells Donkey that he overheard their conversation. They both travel to Duloc quickly, thanks to Dragon, who had escaped her confines and followed Donkey. They interrupt the wedding before Farquaad can kiss Fiona, but not before the sun sets, which causes Fiona to turn into an ogress in front of everyone. While her transformation causes Shrek to fully understand what he overheard at the windmill, Farquaad, disgusted over the change, orders Shrek killed and Fiona imprisoned, but Shrek whistles for Dragon, who bursts in and eats Farquaad. Shrek and Fiona admit their love for each other and share a kiss; Fiona is bathed in light as her curse is broken, but is surprised to find that she has remained an ogress, as she "thought [she] was supposed to be[come] beautiful", to which Shrek replies that she is beautiful. The two of them get married in the swamp and depart on their honeymoon while the rest celebrate by singing "I'm a Believer".

Production
Steven Spielberg bought the rights to the original book in 1991, when he apparently thought about making a traditionally animated film based on the book with Bill Murray as Shrek and Steve Martin as Donkey. After only a few years in development, producer John H. Williams got hold of the book from his children, and when he brought it to DreamWorks, it caught Jeffrey Katzenberg's attention and the studio decided to make it into a movie. After buying the rights to the film in 1995, Katzenberg quickly put the film in active development.
The Art Directors visited Hearst Castle, Stratford upon Avon and Dordogne for inspiration on Duloc's place. Art Director Douglas Rogers visited a magnolia plantation in Charleston, South Carolina for inspiration for Shrek's swamp.
The film was originally planned to be a motion-captured film. DreamWorks used live action background plates with miniature fairy tale settings that they had filmed, giving the film a very visual distinct look. After a year and a half of R & D, a test was finally shown. The result was a disaster, with Katzenburg stating "It looked terrible, it didn't work, it wasn't funny, and we didn't like it." Production was shut down for a while. DreamWorks later went to its production partners at PDI in Spring of 1997, when the movie Antz was still in production, to help Shrek get it's final computer-animated look.
"We did a lot of work on character and set-up, and then kept changing the set up while we were doing the animation," Ramon Hui noted. "In Antz we had a facial system that gave us all the facial muscles under the skin. In Shrek we applied that to whole body. So if you pay attention to Shrek when he talks, you see that when he opens his jaw, he forms a double chin, because we have the fat and the muscles underneath. That kind of detail took us a long time to get right."
Saturday Night Live member Chris Farley was to be the voice for Shrek. He was able to voice around 80-90% of the script, although Chris' brother, Tom Farley, states that Farley had actually already recorded 95% of Shrek's dialogue for the movie, but died in 1997 before he finished voicing the character. Production was shut down again after Farley's death. Andrew Adamson stated "Chris Farley's death was before any animation had been done [although] we'd recorded an amount with him."
DreamWorks later asked Mike Myers to play Shrek, whom Myers wanted the writers to re-write the script to leave no traces of Farley's version of Shrek. After Myers had completed providing the voice for the character, when the film was well into production, he asked to re-record all of his lines in a Scottish accent similar to the one his mother had used when she told him bedtime stories. After hearing the alternative voice-over, Katzenberg agreed to redo scenes in the film, saying, "It was so good we took $4m worth of animation out and did it again."
Reception
The film was entered into the 2001 Cannes Film Festival, and was the first animated film since Disney's Peter Pan (1953) to receive that honour. Shrek open in more 3,587 movie theaters on its 2001 release, 11 of them showing them digitally, made possible by the THX Division of Lucasfilm. This was the first time that DreamWorks had shown one of its movies digitally. Produced on a $60 million budget, Shrek was commercially successful, becoming the highest-grossing animated movie ever to be released in Australia, passing the mark set by 1994's The Lion King. In the United Kingdom, Shrek regained the top spot at the British box office after being beaten out the previous week by Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, earning a $20.3 million since its opening in the UK. The film closed on December 6, 2001, after grossing $267,665,011 domestically along with $216,744,207 overseas for a worldwide total of $484,409,218. Shrek is the fourth-highest-grossing film of 2001 behind Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring and Monsters Inc.
Shrek received critically good reviews, praising Shrek as an animated film worthy of adult interest, with many adult-oriented jokes and themes but a simple enough plot and humor to appeal to children. Review aggregate Rotten Tomatoes reports that 89 percent of critics have given the film a positive review based on 176 reviews, with an average score of 7.7/10. The general opinion is: While simultaneously embracing and subverting fairy tales, the irreverent Shrek also manages to tweak Disney's nose, provide a moral message to children, and offer viewers a funny, fast-paced ride.
Roger Ebert liked the film, giving it four stars out of a possible four and describing it as "jolly and wicked, filled with sly in-jokes and yet somehow possessing a heart." USA Today's Susan Wloszczyna praised Eddie Murphy's performance, stating it "gives the comic performance of his career, aided by sensational digital artistry, as he brays for the slightly neurotic motormouth." Richard Schickel also enjoyed Murphy's role, stating, "No one has ever made a funnier jackass of himself than Murphy."
William Steig, the author of the original book, and his wife Jeanne Steig also enjoyed the film, stating "We all went sort of expecting to hate it, thinking, 'What has Hollywood done to it?' But we loved it. We were afraid it would be too sickeningly cute and, instead, Bill just thought they did a wonderful, witty job of it."
Shrek won the first ever Academy Award For Best Animated Feature, beating Monsters, Inc. and Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius. Entertainment Weekly put it on its end-of-the-decade, "best-of" list, saying, "Prince Charming? So last millennium. This decade, fairy-tale fans--and Princess Fiona--fell for a fat and flatulent Ogre. Now, that's progress."
Shrek was also nominated for 6 BAFTA Award, including the BAFTA Award for Best Film. Eddie Murphy became the first actor to ever receive a BAFTA nomination for a voice-over performance. The film was also nominated for Best Visual Effects, Best Sound, Best Film Music, and won the BAFTA Award for Best Adapted Screenplay.
Shrek was nominated for a dozen Annie Awards from ASIFA-Hollywood.
In June 2008, the American Film Institute revealed its "Ten top Ten"; the best ten films in ten "classic" American film genres--after asking 1,500 people for their opinions. Shrek was acknowledged as the eighth best film in the animated genre, and the only non-Disney*Pixar film on the top ten. It is also third on Bravo's 100 funniest films. Shrek was also ranked second in a Channel 4 poll of the "100 Greatest Family Films", losing out on the top spot to E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. In 2005, Shrek came sixth in Channel 4's 100 Greatest Cartoons poll behind The Simpsons, Tom and Jerry, South Park, Toy Story and Family Guy. In November 2009, the character, Lord Farquaad, was listed #14 in IGN UK's "Top 15 Fantasy Villains".

Google employees quit over controversial Project Maven
Earlier this year, it was revealed that “Don’t be evil” ethos-holder Google was assisting the US Department of Defense in a little-known project called Project Maven. Essentially, the company was using machine-learning algorithms to help military drones. Obviously, Google’s employees weren’t happy with the company’s dirty dealings in warfare, with almost 4,000 employees signing a petition asking Google to end its participation in Project Maven.
Now, according to Gizmodo, at least a dozen employees have quit over Google’s involvement in the project, raising objections to how the company’s involvement was brought to light. According to Gizmodo’s sources, they also raised other political and social concerns – such as the company’s sponsorship of the Conservative Political Action Conference and its problem with diversity.
READ NEXT: Google is helping the US government analyse drone footage
“At some point, I realised I could not in good faith recommend joining Google, knowing what I knew. I realised if I can’t recommend people join here, then why am I still here?” a resigning Google employee told Gizmodo.
Project Maven looks to help the US military assess drone footage quickly using AI and machine learning. It’s intended to detect vehicles and objects, track their movements and report this information back to the Department of Defense. It has been deeply controversial within Google, with employees saying that it jeopardises trust and goes against the company’s core beliefs.
Employees who signed the petition are calling on Google to cancel Project Maven and “draft, publicise and enforce a clear policy stating that neither Google nor its contractors will ever build warfare technology.”
“I tried to remind myself right that Google’s decisions are not my decisions. I’m not personally responsible for everything they do. But I do feel responsibility when I see something that I should escalate it,” another resigning employee told Gizmodo.
Google has defended itself by arguing that the technology the military is using is open-source and thus can be used regardless of the company’s actual involvement, and insisted that the technology would not be used for combat operations. When the story first broke, it told Gizmodo: “The technology flags images for human review and is for non-offensive uses only. Military use of machine learning naturally raises valid concerns. We’re actively discussing this important topic internally and with others as we continue to develop policies and safeguards.”
Other companies such as IBM and Amazon have refused to work with the Department of Defense, so it’s interesting that Google is failing to take its employees’ concerns onboard. Yesterday, more than 90 academics in computer science, AI and ethics signed an open letter calling on the company to end its work on Project Maven. With the building controversy, it will be interesting to see if Google back down from the project, or whether we will see a mass exodus of employees.
We’ve reached out to Google for comment.

Blanche Zelia Josephine Delacroix, better known as Caroline Lacroix (13 May 1883 - 12 February 1948), was the most well known mistress of Leopold II of Belgium.
Delacroix was of French origin. She met Leopold in Paris as a young girl. She was only 16 and he was 65. At that time, she was a prostitute. They soon started a relationship. It lasted until his death in 1909. Leopold gave her large sums of money, estates and gifts. He also gave her a noble title, baronne de Vaughan (Baroness Vaughan). Because of these presents, Caroline was unpopular in Belgium and other countries. People did not like the greedy actions of Leopold in the Congo Free State. This area was his own personal colony. Since Caroline was being supported by the king's income from the colony, she became known as La reine du Congo ("The Queen of the Congo").
She and Leopold married in a religious ceremony five days before his death. The did not have a civil ceremony so the marriage was not legal under Belgian law. After the king's death, it was learned that he had left her many properties, items of high value and other valuable sources of income. All of this turned her into a multimillionaire. For years, the Belgian government and Leopold's daughters tried to recover some of these items. They had varying ammounts of success. Caroline died on 12 February 1948 in Cambo-les-Bains, France.

Dr. Auster and his associates know there are three main reasons why implant dentistry is the very best option in tooth replacement: because they mimic the natural tooth structure, provide lasting cosmetic benefits, and are the best financial investment patients can make. Keep reading to learn more, then schedule an appointment to discuss your own tooth replacement.
Why The Dentist Near Suffern Recommends Dental Implants
Dental implants are one of several options people have after tooth loss, but they rise to the top as the very best solution for missing teeth. Indeed, nothing completes smiles better than dental implants.
#1: Implants Mimic the Natural Tooth Structure
Dental implants are currently the only way to rebuild the missing tooth from the root up. Each dental implant is composed of three parts:
- The dental implant, which replaces the tooth’s root.
- The crown, or the visible portion of the tooth that helps you speak and chew.
- The abutment, which connects the crown with the implant.
Together, these parts of a dental implant allow you to eat, speak, and smile with total confidence. Even biting into corn on the cob or a fresh, crisp apple is possible with this comprehensive tooth replacement — something denture wearers often have trouble with. Because they mimic the natural tooth structure, brushing and flossing are also as easy as ever with dental implants — so you can continue to enjoy solid oral health and hygiene.
#2: Maintain Youthful Volume with Dental Implants
Most people associate tooth loss with a sunken, drawn facial appearance. That’s because, after teeth go missing, the jawbone will start to diminish as the body sends important nutrients where it thinks they are needed more. But with a prosthetic root, the jawbone has the blood flow and stimulation it needs to stay healthy and strong. People who choose dental implants are more likely to enjoy a youthful facial structure as they age — no matter how many teeth they have lost.
#3: The Very Best Financial Investment
Sure, dental implants come at a higher initial cost than say, a traditional denture or a fixed bridge. But when you consider the fact that those options will need to be replaced to keep up with age and the diminishing structure of the jawbone, you will be paying the price of a denture or bridge several times over a lifetime. Dental implants, however, can be expected to stay sturdy for decades — no replacement needed. That makes them the best financial investment by far.

Dr. Peter Auster is the dental implant dentist Suffern neighbors trust for their tooth replacement. His extensive expertise and compassionate approach equal unparalleled dental implant care. We invite you to schedule an appointment to discuss your candidacy for dental implants today!

Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain, But a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised ~ Proverbs 31:30 NASB.
How did a common Jewish girl end up in a palace, married to a king? During this month of romance and love, let’s see what it took for Esther to get that kind of promotion.
Hadassah, better known as Esther, didn’t have a privileged upbringing. After the death of her parents, her Uncle Mordecai took and raised her as his own. Her fairytale story began during King Ahasuerus’s banquet to celebrate his three-year reign. NASB.
On the seventh day of the final banquet, King Ahasuerus commanded that Queen Vashti come before the king with her royal crown in order to display her beauty to the people and the princes, for she was beautiful ~ Esther 1:11 NASB.
But Vashti refused to heed the summons.
Not wanting to give the married women in the land an excuse to mimic Vashti’s impertinence, the king agreed it was wise to replace this disobedient queen. He invited all the virgins in his kingdom to a year-long beauty pageant. After a beautification regimen of twelve months using cosmetics, spices, and oil of myrrh, each girl would spend one night with the king. Whoever pleased him the most would wear the queen’s crown.
Although Scripture describes Esther as fair of form and face, her character played a strong part in sweeping her to the summit of royalty.
First, Esther was obedient to follow instructions. Uncle Mordecai told her to keep her ethnic background a secret and not reveal her Jewish heritage. We can infer that she was humble, with a heart to serve others, so not a surprise that she also found great favor with the king’s eunuch. 2:8b-9 NASB.
Second, Esther heeded wise advice. Each virgin had the option of taking along anything she desired from the harem for her special night with King Ahasuerus. Esther, however, listened and heeded wise counsel instead of following her own desires. NASB.
Third, Esther’s character yielded the fruit of great favor.
The king loved Esther more than all the women, and she found favor and kindness with him more than all the virgins, so that he set the royal crown on her head and made her queen instead of Vashti. Then the king gave a great banquet, Esther’s banquet, for all his princes and his servants; he also made a holiday for the provinces and gave gifts according to the king’s bounty ~ Esther 2:17-18 NASB.
The vanity and pride of Queen Vashti stole her title and position.
The obedience and humility of orphaned Hadassah promoted her to the king’s palace to become the new queen in Vashti’s place.
What does this story have in common with the Church? We, the Saints, will soon become the Bride of Christ. On that day when we are in heaven and He places crowns on our heads, we, along with the twenty-four elders, will fall down and worship, casting our crowns at His feet.
NASB.
May we, like Queen Esther, be found faithful in heeding God’s wisdom, found in His Word. May we live our lives in obedience and humility. May we be granted favor with God and man as we beautify and anoint ourselves to meet Our Bridegroom—washing with the pure water of the Word and donning clean, white wedding clothes to meet Jesus, our Messiah, in the air.
Maranatha!

By guest author: Samantha Shay“I learned that I am able to adjust to just about any situation.”
“The trajectory of my entire life changed because I studied abroad. And I cannot imagine my life without it now.”
“I REGRET NOTHING.”
“I am not the same having seen the moon shine on the other side of the world.”
“I learned to be ‘tough,’ and I grew as a person in ways I can’t explain.”
-Excerpts from some recent Abroad101 student reviews
A recent New York Times article stated, “Globalization is here to stay, and students who want to work in our interconnected global world should study abroad…Making study abroad a part of their education is the most eff
ective and accessible means for students to develop needed skills because it pushes a student to get out of her comfort zone to experience another culture, language, environment and education system.”[1]With a mission to promote global citizenship by fostering the most meaningful study abroad experiences for all students through technology innovation in international education, Abroad101 has collected the stories of over 22,000 students’ international pursuits through over 8,800 abroad programs. Whether you studied abroad to explore your heritage, pursue an academic goal or field of study, or immerse yourself in a culture different than your own, we want to add your story to our collection.

Why should I write a review?
What better capstone to a life-changing experience abroad than to share your story and your advice with someone else? Abroad101 is an abundant resource for students who are in the process of choosing an abroad program that will fit them well. Your story could directly impact the program choice of a prospective traveler. By submitting a review to Abroad101, you are contributing to a collective database of student stories that future abroad students can access easily. How accessible was healthcare in your city? Did you spend more money on food than you expected to? How many hours a day did you speak a foreign language? By answering these questions and others like them, you create a sketch of a prospective student’s program experience. If while abroad you faced challenges you didn’t foresee, or elements of your program that didn’t work for you, sharing this feedback and advice for others to access is a generous way to reflect on those experiences.
By sharing a review with Abroad101, you are creating a sketch of abroad life not only for prospective students to consider, but for their families and peers to read as well. Consider your review a tribute to protective parents everywhere. At the recent “Women in Travel” Summit, Abroad101 received strong feedback that reviews are just as useful and enlightening to parents and teachers as they are to other students.[1] The WITS attendees mentioned details about safety and quality of administration as top curiosities and concerns when students are choosing an abroad program. By addressing these topics in your review, as well as answering questions that target many other aspects of your program experience, you can really illustrate what life was like for you during your semester abroad.
Your positive feedback, or constructive criticism, can benefit the future of your program. Abroad101 offers administrators and program providers access to evaluation data collected directly from students, and they can access student reviews and feedback on our website just as easily as other students can. Your words have the power to support a program you feel strongly about, or alternatively, to help initiate changes within a program to benefit future students’ experiences. Additionally, since students submit reviews directly through our website and independently from the programs in which they participated, readers can trust that the reviews are as honest and unbiased as possible.
Most importantly, submitting a review of your semester abroad benefits you! A 2010 market research study reported, “of the U.S. recruiters and HR professional surveyed, 75% report that their companies have formal policies in place that require hiring personnel to research applicants online.”[2] According to Idealist Careers, “employees are looking for positive things: discovering how well you communicate…getting a sense of how professionally you present yourself…”[3] Whether you plan to pursue graduate school, a job or internship, or another abroad program, having published a well constructed, thoughtful review on Abroad101 will give you an edge with employers, grad schools, and other potential post grad opportunities – show your reflective writing skills, showcasing your experience abroad, and reflecting on how your experience changed your outlook on the world.

Native Americans (also called Aboriginal Americans, American Indians, Amerindians or indigenous peoples of the Americas) are the indigenous peoples and their descendants, who were in the Americas before Europeans arrived.
Sometimes these people are called Indians, but this may be confusing, because it is the same word used for people from India. When Christopher Columbus explored, he did not know about the Americas. He was in the Caribbean but thought he was in the East Indies, so he called the people Indians. Today, some think that calling a Native American an Indian is racist.
There are many different tribes of Native American people, with many different languages. Some tribes were hunter-gatherers who moved from place to place. Others lived in one place and built cities and kingdoms.
Many Native Americans died after the Europeans came to the Americas. There were diseases that came with the Europeans but were new to the Native Americans. There were battles with the Europeans. Many native people were hurt, killed, or forced to leave their homes by settlers who took their lands.
Today, there are more than three million Native Americans in Canada and the U.S. combined. About 51 million more Native Americans live in Latin America. Many Native Americans still speak native languages and have their own cultural practices, while others have adopted some parts of Western culture. Many Native Americans face problems with discrimination and racism.
Origins
The ancestors of Native Americans came to the Americas from Asia. Some of them may have come to America 15,000 years ago when Alaska was connected to Siberia by the Bering land bridge.
The earliest people in the Americas came from Siberia when there was an ice bridge across the Bering Strait. The cold but mainly grassy plain which connected Siberia with Canada is called Beringia. It is reckoned that a few thousand people arrived in Beringia from eastern Siberia during the Last Glacial Maximum before moving into the Americas sometime after 16,500 years before the present (BP). This would have occurred as the American glaciers blocking the way southward melted, but before the bridge was covered by the sea about 11,000 years BP.
Before European colonization, Beringia was inhabited by the Yupik peoples on both sides of the straits. This culture remains in the region today, with others. In 2012, the governments of Russia and the United States announced a plan to formally establish "a transboundary area of shared Beringian heritage". Among other things this agreement would establish close ties between the Bering Land Bridge National Preserve and the Cape Krusenstern National Monument in the United States and Beringia National Park in Russia.
Native Americans are divided into many small nations, called First Nations in Canada and tribes elsewhere.
Culture
Each Native American tribe has their own culture. The cultures can be grouped together depending on region. For example, the tribes living in Mesoamerica have similar cultures.
Food
Native Americans ate many different things depending on where they lived.
Native Americans from Mesoamerica introduced vanilla, avocados, and chocolate to the world.
Religion
Before Europeans came, the native peoples of the Americans practiced many different religions. Each tribe had their own different beliefs.
Today, many Native Americans practice Christianity, a religion that was brought to the Americas by Europeans. Meanwhile, others still practice their own religions.
Languages
Native Americans today speak over a thousand different languages. Some of these languages had writing systems before Europeans came.
Many of these languages are endangered because more people are speaking European languages and not teaching Native American languages to their kids.
Music
Native Americans make musical instruments using the things around them.
Art
Native Americans made a lot of different art.
Today
North America
United States
According to the 2010 United States census, 0.9% of Americans say they are Native American, 2.9 million people, and 0.8% of Americans say they are both Native American and something else. They are not evenly spread out through the United States. About a third of the people in Alaska are Native Alaskan and about a sixth of the people in Oklahoma are Native American.
In the United States, most Native Americans live in cities. About 28% of Native Americans live on Indian reservations. Many Native Americans are poor, and 24% are extremely poor. The history of violence against Native Americans persists today in higher rates of violence against Native American people than white people.
Mexico
Many Mexicans are of Native American or mestizo ancestry. Mexico has the largest and most diverse Native American population in Latin America.
Canada
In the 2016 census, More than 1.67 million people in Canada identified as Indigenous, making them 4.9 per cent of Canada's population.
Central America
Guatemala
About 40% of the people of Guatemala identify as Native American. Many indigenous groups in the country are descendants of the Maya.
Many Native Americans in Guatemala are poor. Many of them have left the country to find better jobs elsewhere.
South America
Bolivia
The majority of Bolivians belong to indigenous groups. Many are Aymara and Quechua.
Peru
Peru has a large indigenous population, around 80% of Peru's population identify as indigenous or mestizo.
Indigenous activism
In the later half of the 20th century, many Native Americans started to protest the unfair treatment they experienced from the societies they lived in.
Some Native Americans have become famous in politics. For example, an Aymara man named Evo Morales was elected as president of Bolivia in 2005. He was the first indigenous presidential candidate in Bolivia and South America.

Mike Whitney had it all planned out well in advance. With the help of the Albany Devils Executive Staff, he and his girlfriend were “randomly” selected to participate in the second period intermission activity on the ice during last Saturday’s game.
After dominating Lindsey Quay in a shootout from the blue line, the couple was approached by Devils’ Manager of Event Operations Caela McLoughlin.
“Let me get your photo,” she said, moving the couple towards center ice.
After one final breath, Mike dropped down on one knee and asked Lindsey to marry him.
She said “yes” to the delight of the Times Union Center crowd and Mike and Lindsey’s family members who were secretly in attendance.
Here’s to wishing these Devils’ fans a lifetime of happiness!

A municipality is a word used for a city, a town or a village, or a small group of them. It has a clearly defined territory, and all the people living on that territory share one common local government.
In most countries, a municipality is the smallest administrative subdivision to have its own democratically elected representative leadership. A municipality is usually governed by a mayor and a city or municipal council. The municipality can be created as a municipal corporation.
In some countries, municipalities are referred to as "communes" (for example, French commune, Italian comune or Swedish kommun).

On 29 October 2020, three people were Stabbed and killed in an attack in a Roman Catholic church in Nice, Provence-Alpes-Cote d'Azur, France. The attack happened between 8:50 and 9:00 AM local time. The mayor of Nice said that this was a terrorist attack. He called it "islamist terrorism". The attacker was an 21 year old Tunisian. The three people killed were a seventy-year-old woman, a woman in her thirties and a member of the clergy. The woman in her thirties was able to leave the church but she died soon after the attack in a nearby restaurant. Local police entered the church and fought with the attacker. The policemen used tasers before they shot him. The attacker was taken to a nearby hospital.
The attacker was a 21 year old man from Tunisia. He had entered Italy from Lampedusa in late September 2020. The man had travelled to Bari, Apulia on 9 October. He got to France in mid October 2020. He has not asked for asylum in France. This attack happened about a week after another attack. In the earlier attack, a teacher was stabbed after showing cartoons of Muhammad.
Reactions
Turkey wished condolences to the families of the people who were killed.
Other attacks
On the same day, there were two other incidents involving France . In the first incident, an attacker threatened to shoot people near Avignon. There was also an attack on the French consulate in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. After these attacks, the French state raised its security alert to the maximum level.
Analysis
Marc Hecker, an expert on terrorism, has analyzed this stabbing, a stabbing that happened in September in Paris and the stabbing where a teacher was targeted. He said that that the attacks are probably related to the republication of Muhammad cartoons by Chartlie Hebdo. These cartoons have caused resentment in many Islamic countries. Wassim Nasr, a journalist who deals with Islamic jihadism, said that it is not political jihad which motivates these attacks: "These people feel attacked in their faith, but do not have a political project as such, such as dividing French society or the departure of the French armies from the Sahel. On the other hand, the fact that they act alone and without ties to the jihadist sphere makes their surveillance almost impossible." |

The town was founded as Gray Station, Tennessee because of a train rail running through the town. The Gray area was only rural farms until the 1990s. Some suburban areas began to take shape. The Gray area has rapidly grown each year starting in 200 because of the addition of new chain restaurants and a museum known as the Gray Fossil Site. |
Summary of hail
What is hail?
Hail, also known as sleet, is commonly known as hail,called “hailstone” in some areas. It is the solid precipitation falling to the ground from the strongly developing cumulonimbus clouds, small as beans, big as eggs and fists. It is a kind of meteorological disaster that mainly damages and destroys ground objects. It does great harm to agriculture and is one of the serious disasters in China.
Classification of hail
According to the diameter, cumulative time and thickness of most hail (general hail) during a hail fall, hail is classified into three grades.
Light hailMost hail are less than 0.5 cm in diameter, no more than 10 min in cumulative hail time and no more than 2 cm in surface area.
Moderate hailMost hail have a diameter of 0.5 to 2.0 cm, a cumulative hail time of 10 to 30 min, and a thickness of 2 to 5 cm.
Heavy hailMost hail have diameters of more than 2.0 cm, cumulative hail time of more than 30 minutes and hail thickness of more than 5 cm.
Hail hazards
Hail disaster is a severe meteorological disaster caused by severe convective weather system, although its scope is small and time is short, it has a strong and intense coming force, and often accompanied by paroxysmal disastrous weather processes such as strong wind, heavy rainfall and sharp cooling.China is a country with frequent hail disasters,every year, hail brings huge losses to agriculture, construction, communications, electricity, transportation and people's lives and property. According to statistics, the economic losses caused by hail in China are hundreds of millions of yuan or even billions of yuan every year.
Prevention and control of hail
Early warning signals of hail
Early warning signals of hail are divided into two levels, which are orange and red, respectively, as shown in Table 6-8.
Key points of hail avoidance
(1) Close doors and windows, and properly place outdoor articles that are vulnerable to hail.
(2) Do not go out,ensure the elderly and children stay at home.
(3) Suspend outdoor activities, such as in the outdoors, do not avoid hail under the eaves of high-rise buildings, chimneys, poles or trees.
(4)While preventing hail, we should also be prepared for lightning protection.
How to reduce the hail damage?
(1) Strengthen weather forecast and reduce hail loss.
(2)Grasp the hail-prone time, adjust the planting time and planting structure. For example, we should select root crops such as potatoes, peanuts and sweet potatoes to reduce hail disaster.
(3) Utilize high-tech means to dispel and eliminate hail artificially, when hail clouds occur, hail suppression operations can be carried out in time.
(4)After the hail disaster, if the affected crops can resume their growth, should immediately increase fertility, increase ground temperature, or use water irrigation to make hail melt away as soon as possible, so as to reduce the loss caused by hail.
Agricultural hail suppression measures
(1) Take favorable agrotechnical measures to prevent hail. According to the season in which hail occurs, crops are harvested to avoid the hazards of hail. If wheat in harvest period is vulnerable to hail disaster, early sowing or planting early-maturing varieties should be considered in planting measures so as to make it harvest ahead of time and avoid hail season.When such measures are still unavoidable, crop cultivation should be adjusted.Hard stalk crops, such as maize and millet, should be selected to grow in areas where hail is more frequent. Although these crops are damaged by hail, they are easy to resume growth.After crop disaster, field management should be strengthened, such as timely soil cultivation, middle tillage, watering and fertilization, and meticulous management, so as to restore crop growth as soon as possible.
(2) Changing the local climate and environment to prevent hail and vigorously planting trees are good ways to reduce the hazards of hail.For example, in the southwest mountainous areas of Yunnan and Guangxi, hail hazards were more in the past, due to vigorous afforestation and climate regulation in recent years, hail was greatly reduced. Improvement of bare saline-alkali land is also a good way to reduce hail.
(3) Artificial methods to prevent hail.This method can be divided into fire prevention and eliminate.According to weather forecast and people's experience, when hailstorms are coming, hail suppression shed or hail suppression cover will be erected on focused crops or key crops to protect them from hazards,the effect is remarkable, but the cost of labor and materials is a major deficiency.
“Elimination” is the elimination of hail by artificial means with homemade cannon and rockets,which has been widely used in all parts of our country and has achieved certain results.Under the condition of modern science and technology, catalysts such as silver, lead iodide and dry ice are directly sent to the clouds by rockets, anti-aircraft guns or airplanes to destroy the water transport to hail clouds and inhibit the growth of hail embryos.

In ancient Roman religion, Mutunus Tutunus was a phallic marriage deity. He is often associated with the Greek god Priapus. His shrine was located on the Velian Hill, supposedly since the founding of Rome, until the 1st century BC.
During marriage rites, Roman brides are supposed to have straddled the phallus of Mutunus to prepare themselves for sexual intercourse, according to Church Fathers who interpreted this act as an obscene loss of virginity. |

Asbestos is a set of six silicate minerals which occur naturally. White asbestos makes up 95% of the asbestos found in buildings. It occurs in all parts of the world. It is fibrous, heat resistant and non flammable. These properties made it very attractive as a component in building materials and other products such as insulation and automobile brake pads. People have used asbestos throughout history. Ancient Egyptian people used asbestos. Asbestos is extremely dangerous for human health, as it can cause lung diseases such as asbestosis, emphysema and mesothelioma if the fibres get loose in the air. It can also harm animals such as livestock or pets.
Asbestos was linked to lung cancer in the early 1970s, and was replaced by other materials in most applications by 1980.
Types of asbestos
There are six types of asbestos:
Chrysotile (white asbestos)
Crocidolite (blue asbestos)
Amosite (brown asbestos)
Anthophyllite asbestos
Tremolite asbestos
Actinolite asbestos
Substitutes
Fiberglass - This is the most popular substitute. Fiberglass is physically similar to asbestos and its safety is also being questioned. Fiberglass has been called "man-made asbestos".
Carbon fiber - Lighter weight than fiberglass or asbestos, but not heat resistant
Wood fiber mixed with cement (in non-heat applications)
Various polymer and plastic fibers
Asbestos rope can be replaced with synthetic or fiberglass rope.
Vermiculite insulation is a common substitute, although vermiculite itself can be contaminated with asbestos
Basalt fiber is a mineral fiber with properties similar to asbestos. It is suitable for high-heat applications.
Mineral wool is a common substitute that is popular in Europe
Silica aerogel is the best insulator available. It is non-fibrous and is not believed to cause cancer if inhaled into the lungs.
Lawsuits
Many companies that use or used to use asbestos have been sued by current or former employees who got sick with mesothelioma or asbestosis. Many lawyers specialize in asbestos-related lawsuits. |

Kenwood Vineyards largest produced Cabernet Sauvignon is made predominantly of fruit sourced from mountain ranches in Sonoma Valley. Winemaker Mike Lee keeps each vineyard lot separate throughout fermentation and aging to preserve the unique flavors of the individual vineyards that create a consistent, award-winning wine.
The long, cool growing season of 1997 produced intensely flavorful fruit. After fermenting the grapes in stainless steel tanks, Lee aged the wine in French and American Oak barrels for 22 months. Cabernet Franc and Merlot were then added in the final blend to further enhance the wines rich berry flavors. Enjoyable now, this wine will continue to improve with bottle age.
Serve this Cabernet Sauvignon with rich pastas dishes, lamb and steak.

The beer list is now complete, the beers have all arrived and they await your arrival! There are some changes from the printed programme.
This year the Champion Beer of Cheshire (CBoC) was selected out of the beers nominated by the Cheshire breweries. They put forward some cracking beers. The 23 beers (marked with and orange flash below) were divided in to three preliminary panels of seven to eight beers. Each beer was blind tasted by a panel of 4-5 judges under the beady eye of the scrutineer (a brewer and landlord from outside of the region). They were judged and scored against their style specifications. After the panels completed their assessments, the two highest scoring beers from each panel went forward to the final.
The finalist panel consisted of four Cheshire publicans chaired by an experienced beer tester, again from outside of the region. Using the same process they tasted, judged and scored the six beers to arrive at the Champion of best in class winners. Numbers in () refer to the programme reference below.
GOLD: Chapter Brewing Co. – #3 Dead Man’s Fist (16)
SILVER: Beartown Brewery – Crème Bearlee (4)
BRONZE: Pied Bull – Taurus (54)
And in no particular order the other finalists were…
- Mobberely Brewhouse – Eylsium (48)
- Red Willow – Effortless (58)
- Merlin – Avalon (45)
Beer styles:
B – Bitter | BB – Best Bitter | SB – Strong Bitter | G – Golden | M – Mild | P – Porter | SP – Speciality Beer | ST – Stout | OA – Old Ale

Reviews
“Webber and Bezanson’s collection has become standard amongst sociology instructors seeking a critical introduction to the field. The book strikes a nice balance between seminal theoretical pieces and cutting edge research that engages and challenges students to think about new things in new ways. Power inequalities figure prominently in the readings as they explore the complex intersections of class, gender, race, and sexuality.… Canadian sociology is well represented, with a number of current research pieces by scholars preeminent in the discipline. I cannot think of another collection that accomplishes what this one does.”
— Kenneth Fish, Department of Sociology, University of Winnipeg
“Rethinking Society in the 21st Century offers a diverse range of readings focusing on the theory, methods, and substance of sociology and does so from a critical perspective. Furthermore, it exposes students to both classical and contemporary works, and the readings are engaging yet challenging. The number of Canadian authors is another key strength of this text.”

Ryu Hyun-Jin ( born March 25, 1987 in Incheon, Gyeonggi-do) is a South Korean professional baseball player. He is 6 ft 2 inches tall and weighs 215 lbs. He is a left-handed pitcher.
He plays for the Toronto Blue Jays. In the past, he played for the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Amateur career
Ryu Hyun-Jin went to Dongsan High School in Incheon, South Korea.
In 2003, Ryu pitched for his school in the Michoohall National High School Championship. He recorded an 0.00 ERA in 3 games.
In 2004, he went through the Tommy John surgery. So he did not show up in any official games.
In 2005, he led his team to the top place of the Blue Dragon Open National High School Championship. He pitched 1.54 ERA in 53 and 2/3 Innings, earning 6 wins and 1 loss.
Professional career
Ryu Hyun-Jin played well in the Amateur League. So Ryu was selected by the Hanwha Eagles as the 1st pick in 2006. His professional league debut was on April 12, 2006 pitching against LG Twins. That day he earned his first league win. He allowed only 3 hits and no runs for 7 and 1/3 innings. He became a sensation in the league from his debut. And finished the season with 18-6, 2.23 ERA and 205 strikeouts in 201 and 2/3 innings. In his first year, he got the pitching Triple Crown, and was named both Rookie of the year and Player of the Year.
Since then, Ryu kept his place as a top pitcher in the league. And he won many personal titles.
International career
In August 2008, Ryu played for the South Korea national baseball team in the 2008 Beijing Olympics. The South Korea national baseball team won the gold medal. For this, Ryu does not have to join the Military for 2 years like other men in South Korea.
In March 2009, he played for the South Korea national baseball team in the 2009 World Baseball Classic. His team finished in second place.
In 2010, Ryu played in the 2010 Asian Games. The South Korea national baseball team won the gold medal.
Desire to play in the Major League Baseball
Ryu always showed his wish to play in the Major League Baseball. The Korea Baseball Organization allows their players to make a contract with a Major League team after playing 7 years in the Korean League. But the agreement of the player's original team is needed. After the 2012 season, Ryu used this rule to play in the Major League Baseball league. The Los Angeles Dodgers suggested $25,737,737.33 to get the agreement from his original team, the Hanwha Eagles. Hanwha Eagles accepted the suggestion, and the Los Angeles Dodgers and Ryu agreed on his salary and contract years on December 10, 2012.

A voltage spike is a sudden increase in voltage value over a short time in power systems. It can be caused by several factors, but mostly it is due to external or internal disturbance. A voltage spike might cause an increase in current, but the increase in voltage might have been caused by the current increase as well.

After a gorgeous Sunday morning stroll in Colombia road Market I have purchased my first Dicki it has no trunk but is very wide spreading I thought £15 was a bargain. But now I am wondering if I should wait till spring to plant it out. And if there is a way to make it look taller could it be planted in a section of tree fern trunk.? |

Ruminations on the Texas roster at the midpoint of the 2009 season. First up, the defensive line.
Defensive Ends
Each week when I get to the Defensive MVP section of the Post-Game React, I pause and consider whether I can omit Sergio Kindle, if only for diversity's sake. Each week I include him anyway, and it's never a hard decision. The physical gifts are no secret, but I find myself repeatedly writing about the energy and effort, which are otherworldly, as well. In terms of his future, his elite length, ability to change directions, and straightline speed make him a Top 10 NFL pick, and he's got the frame to add a needed 10 pounds of muscle to his upper body. Needs to work on using his hands to keep blocks off his knees, but that's about it; he's special..

Excellent Write-up
those guys are trucks
by the way… don’t want to be that guy but Sam Acho is a junior
acho81 - October 20, 2009
Good catch on Acho
Thanks
Peter Bean - October 20, 2009
yes he is and thank the Jeebus he's a Junior
I LOVE THIS GUY! Both Achos are really special players, not just great on the field, but real great guys off the field – and thats the guys I want at Texas.
Sam is stone cold – and next year when this Defense has matured into one of, if not THE best, in the country, Acho will be one of the stars and be a draft day steal.
Im looking forward to this D Line terrorizing Mizzous offense.
Texas4Life - October 21, 2009
What Amazes Me About Kindle
How can someone who exerts so much pressure on the QB be so good against the run? Better that RAK in that regard.
realmccoy - October 20, 2009
Rak was solid
and more than held his own in that regard, but you are correct about Kindle being on another level.
Wescott Eberts (GoBR) - October 20, 2009
IMO, it's an extra step of quickness Rak did not have
edsp - October 21, 2009
Kindle was a RB in HS too
I think that gives him an extra half step against the run having played the postition (very well too!!) and allows him to play by sheer instinct
Texas4Life - October 21, 2009
Two things
Derek Johnson is also working on his conditioning, as he came in a little overweight and then regressed when he went back to Arkansas during the second summer session.
Really happy for Eddie Jones. Guy has clearly had all the talent in the world, but just couldn’t stay healthy with his ankle and shoulder problems. Now he is healthy and is almost undoubtedly the best third defensive end in the country. Not only is he strong, but he’s also extremely quick — he may have the second-best first step on the team after Kindle. How talented is this team, though? Acho and Okafor are certainly in that discussion as well and that says more about their collective speed than any lack of it.
Wescott Eberts (GoBR) - October 20, 2009
Got to agree on Eddie Jones. As much or more than his physical skills, I really love the kid’s attitude.
He came in as a super-blue chip and never showed an ounce of egotism. Despite being dogged by injuries for years, he’s always maintained a positive attitude. Watch any game back to his freshman year and Eddie was almost always the most vocal and emotional guy on the sidelines, even when he couldn’t play because of injuries.
Like you, I couldn’t be happier for a great kid who’s just now starting to realize his potential and show us his chops. Here’s hoping he stays healthy and gets all he deserves.
TKO - October 21, 2009
A tip of the hat....
…. to the member of the staff that found the Acho brothers! A great find.
HornChamps - October 21, 2009
Considering the school, and the level of competition
someone did a borderline unreal level of scouting.
learned hand - October 21, 2009
Agreed
St. Marks is a powerhouse…in Debate. Not like Kinkiad or The Greenhill School, but that is what they’re known for. That was a great find!
kriess - October 21, 2009
Not sure how much credit the staff should get for that one
USC was recruiting Sam before UT.
Horncasting - October 21, 2009
Then it was a great steal. nt
kriess - October 21, 2009
I don't know...
… historically Oscar Giles has always done a good job of finding the DE athletes. Then, he knows how to develop them.
HornChamps - October 23, 2009
So the Achos can talk serious chit after recovering a fumble too. Nice
realmccoy - October 21, 2009
A bit early to ask this...
… but what does the two deep for the front four look like for next season, PB?
DE – Jones, Wilson (?)
DT – Randall, Howell
DT – Higgins, Johnson (or true freshman?)
DE – Acho, Mims (?)
patienthornsfan - October 21, 2009
DE — Jones and Acho as starters with Okafor backing up one side and some combo of Carter/Dravanti Johnson/Mims backing up the other side.
DT — Randall holds down one spot and Howell the other as starters. Backups are likely to be Derek Johnson, Higgins, Kriegel.
llogg - October 21, 2009
Bible and Wilson ....
(and possibly Dorsey) should be in the DL rotations next year. Wilson may play inside much like S. Acho does in certain situations. The DL depth next year will be quite impressive and would be an embarrasment of riches if Jeffcoat commits.
Arroyo Grande - October 21, 2009
Bible...
is college ready now (assuming his shoulder is completely well). He should hit the rotation early and often his freshman year, and I think he’ll be starting as a sophomore. He’s not just very good, he’s a special talent that can anchor an entire defense.
TKO - October 21, 2009
Was there a GoBR write-up on Bible? I guess I missed this one in all the hand-wringing over Hicks and Jeffcoat. What makes this guy so special? I’m not questioning, as we all know how many of our DT’s are playing in the NFL on Sundays at the mo, just wondering how we know this is another one of those special guys?
patienthornsfan - October 21, 2009
Not a full blown write
but this:
Gives some light into what this kid is capable of.
kriess - October 21, 2009
Also read that he is as good as Tommie Harris was at the high school level
pfc - October 21, 2009
Bible...
Just watch the free video on the recruiting sites. The guy is unbelievable. Just eating people alive, on the Jeffcoat videos I’m not knowledgeable enough to see what he’s doing so well but Bible you can’t miss it.
I also read that he’s the best DL prospect from Texas since 2001.
pfc - October 21, 2009
Watched him play
This season and his first step is very very impressive. He has a motor and a mean streak. I also watched the other kid we recruited from Johny Tyler I don’t remember his name either but he was just mean in the game I watched. He was a force up front without even trying and punished the QB when he got there.
TXHorns - October 21, 2009
Love hearing the live report. Thanks.
pfc - October 21, 2009
Bible Will Start. I Swear on it.
realmccoy - October 21, 2009
funny
damn funny sir/ma’am
TexasGarcia37 - October 21, 2009
you forgot okafor who's already seen the field this year.
won’t have to worry about the defensive line for a loooong time.
burrito - October 21, 2009
Great write up...
Our defense is just fun to read about. Thanks for getting some good info down.
pfc - October 21, 2009
Houston as a first round pick?
I’d love to see that happen, but I’ve seen no mention on Houston being a first round, let alone a first day pick. Correct me if I’m wrong, but aren’t scouts seeing him as undersized and less talented, especially when compared to Suh and McCoy?
That defensive line looks just sick for next year. I wonder if you’ll see Muschamp spin Mims down as early as next year, since he would already have a two-deep of Acho, Jones, Okafor and Wilson on the ends.
If Bible can contribute immediately, that would be greatly beneficial to the DT depth.
Nice write-up!
jc25 - October 21, 2009
Spin him down to LB you mean?
patienthornsfan - October 21, 2009
houston undersized??
lamarr houston is every bit of 6’2 300lbs, and that by no means is undersized for a NFL dt, he the same size as glen dorsey was his final season at lsu (houston is jus put together better), houston most likely will go late to mid-first round because of his 4.8 40yd dash time, and his overall athletic ability
OkcityHornFan - October 21, 2009 via mobile
Think He is a Project
Will prolly fit best on a 3-4 DL and will need to get above 300 while keeping quickiness.
realmccoy - October 21, 2009
I disagree
Just my humble opinion, but I don’t think Houston is a first day guy. My best guess he goes early third round after draft boards are re-worked. But a great combine could change that immediately.
TexasGarcia37 - October 21, 2009
I think PB..
…still sees Houston in the same mold as the former Nebraska DE, who plays DT for the Rams, Adam Carriker, as he did a couple years ago in his My Guys section. (Carriker was the 3rd overall pick)
vy til i die - October 21, 2009
uh...maybe not Carriker..
….maybe it was Long that went to the Rams
vy til i die - October 21, 2009
ah!
I knew it was something along those lines (It was Long, who went 2nd to the Rams)
It was here.
vy til i die - October 21, 2009
Any word on how these guys are coming along?
Kriegal, Dominique Jones, Mims, Russell Carter
I honestly thought Carter looked alot like Orakpo in highschool and keep hoping he’ll have a blowup season in his 4th year like Rak did (pre-injury).
Horncasting - October 21, 2009
I want seconds please.
This is the goo my brother. I salivate.
I like The Stew PB. It would be fun to see a categorical recipe come out at each position. I mean if you have the time?
The amazing place we are called Texas. We are rolling toward a MNC, have the best overall coaching staff on the planet (even w/GD), and are stacked with amazing talent. All this with a possible recruiting class of the ages in waiting.
I like our chances with Hicks. Jeffcoat’s decision is only relevant if he becomes a Longhorn. Serioulsy, his signing with us would be great, but it’s not like losing a Peterson here. Will Muschamp is proving to be the most intelligent thing DeLoss has done since Mack Brown.
The confidence I have with this staff goes well beyond talent. These guys work hard. From Akina, Maddog, Coach Boom, Brown, GD, Applewhite, and the interns. I know I’ve missed some and that’s the risk when you start posting names, but I want to thank these guys and gals for all they do. The athletes themselves communicate the level of excellence and work ethic modeled by the staff. The formula for success is there year after year. Your post offers one more proof.
The D-line is looking really fine and I think we can go into next year with confidence that guys will be ready. I surrender the stress of who will fill in, to the joy of who will step up.
We can see the writing on the wall now with some changes in offense. A Muschamp defense gives us a whole lot of options, and relying on the passing attack of the spread will become a non-essential.
The 2011 running back talent pool is so rich and we already have interest from some of the top recruits. A certain RB in the 2010 class has missed it big time, but not to fret. The Fozz is coming on, Cody is in shape, and Tre`, McGee, Hills, Whaley? Dude?
I think it’s good to go into our treasure room from time to time for perspective.
All is well in the land. Just win & we’re in .
orangetower - October 21, 2009
Someone drank a serious amount of Kool Aid this morning...
But I don’t disagree with a single thing you wrote.
In all honesty, I just don’t see how a recruit like Jeffcoat wouldn’t want to be a part of this. Let’s hope he sees it the way I do.
GoHorns - October 21, 2009
Disagree a Little Bit on the O side
I am concerned about the offensive coaching. My real peeve is based on the following comparisons:
- OLine preseason outlook + WR preseason outlook vs. reality today.
- Contrasted with the preseason outlook at DT vs. the reality today as discussed by PB.
We were really concerned about the DTs early, hoping that they would be able to contain a running gaming like OU. The stat -16 yards rushing. Think about that. It was done with alot of player development (making Alexander much more than a space eater) and some with scheme.
Any deterioration in the OL play this year is totally inexcusable. The development of Huey, Allen, Snow should definitely offset the loss of Dock. (Bruce Matthews’ alleged observations sound like alarm bells to me) WRs a little more understandable because we did unexpectedly lose Collins in addition to Quan. But the lack of development in Malcolm and Kirk is really upsetting. They did not look this bad last year.
It may be hard to get an offensive coordinator at the same level as Will – given that he is the next coach – but we need to seriously evaluate the coaching on this side of the ball.
realmccoy - October 21, 2009
If there is a weak link....
…then I would have to say it’s the O-line coaching.
The next deepest critique would be in the Malcom Williams/John Chiles arena. I will not knock Williams. Is he perect? No. Does he make mistakes? Yes, but if that is the litmus test for playing time then GG would be our starter. Colt, Davis, or Mack either individually or collectively need to change the paradigm through which they view Malcolm Williams. The kid is literally on the highlight reel in every game. If it’s not a big catch, then it’s a key block, assasination of a punter, or recovering a fumble against our arch rivals. I am not exagerating here. Go back and look at the highlights of every game this year and try to find one that does not have a Malcom Williams footprint.
So, I agree realmccoy. It may be hard to get an OC the level of Will until, in my opinion, Will is the HC or Mack has another epiphany ala VY. My greatest fear for next year is that GD & Mack will Sergio Gilbert. What I mean is that 2 years of production will be wasted trying to find out that they have a star on their hands. The kid can play, and can play at any level. I have the utmost confidence that GG will take over this team when called upon to do so, if he’s not hobbled by minds of mediocrity. I think it was GoBR who said what happened to Sergio his first two years at the hands of the then DC’s “was criminal”. Let it never be again.
On the other hand there seems to be an appeasement going on with Chiles. The guy is a great athlete, but who would have thought a 3 star recruit from Tuscola would come in and win the start and go on to break NCAA records. I think the unrest of benching a recruit the level of Chiles had to be unnerving with the physical talent is there, but I think there was a bit of desperation over wisdom as to where that would be.
I too would like to see Chiles make it somewhere somehow. Maybe take a shot at safety or all purpose RB like Romance Taylor was? The WR slot belongs to Williams and I for one admire his determination and effort to win it back.
After saying all that it really isn’t on the backs of Chiles or Williams, but on the offensive staff. This is just a case in point. Maybe a review of the evaluation process is due like you said. I agree that either repair or elimination of the weakest link is now moved to the front burner.

The Line Is Impressive.
The D line this year is looking good. Both the Acho brothers are dominating. Lamaar Houston is showing he place in the team as well. I am cincerned for next year however I havent looked into next years freshmen class. Calvin Howell may be a big part of the team next year with a little more practice. I would have really liked to have seen Derek Johnson come out this year. He has great size and strength if he can get in shape. I have read articles stating that his wife and he are expecting a child early next year and that may be what is keeping him from putting all his ocus into becoming a contender.

Pizza is an Italian food that was created in Italy (The Naples area). It is made with different toppings. Some of the most common toppings are cheese, sausages, pepperoni, vegetables, tomatoes, spices and herbs and basil. These toppings are added over a piece of bread covered with sauce. The sauce is most often tomato-based, but butter-based sauces are used, too. The piece of bread is usually called a "pizza crust". Almost any kind of topping can be put over a pizza. The toppings used are different in different parts of the world. Pizza comes from Italy from Neapolitan cuisine. However, it has become popular in many parts of the world.
History
The origin of the word Pizza is uncertain. The food was invented in Naples about 200 years ago. It is the name for a special type of flatbread, made with special dough. The pizza enjoyed a second birth as it was taken to the United States in the late 19th century.
Flatbreads, like the focaccia from Liguria, have been known for a very long time. Pizzas need to be baked at temperatures of 200250 degC. Hardly any household oven could reach such temperatures at the time. Because of this, the pizza was made at home, and then given to the town bakery to bake. In June 1889, the Neapolitan chef Raffaele Esposito created the "Margherita" in honour of Queen Margherita, and was the first pizza to include cheese.
Pizza was brought to the United States with Italian immigrants in the late nineteenth century; and first appeared in areas where Italian immigrants concentrated. The country's first pizzeria (place that focuses in pizza), Lombardi's, opened in 1905. Veterans returning from World War II's Italian Campaign were a ready market for pizza. Since then, pizza consumption has increased in the U.S. Pizza chains such as Domino's, Pizza Hut, and Papa John's, have outlets all over the nation. Thirteen percent of the U.S. population eats pizza on any given day.
Types
In the 20th century, pizza has become an international food. The toppings may be quite different depending on the local tastes. These pizzas consist of the same basic design. They also include many types of ingredients such as anchovies, egg, pineapple, banana, coconut, sauerkraut, eggplant, kimchi, lamb, couscous, chicken, fish, and shellfish. Sometimes, meats prepared in styles such as Greek lamb, Gyros or chicken tikka masala, and non-traditional spices such as curry and Thai sweet chili are added too. Pizzas can also be made without meat for vegetarians, and without cheese, for vegans.
Styles
Neapolitan pizza (pizza Napoletana). Authentic Neapolitan pizzas are made with local ingredients like San Marzano tomatoes, which grow on the volcanic plains to the south of Mount Vesuvius and Mozzarella di Bufala Campana, made with the milk from water buffalo raised in the marshlands of Campania and Lazio in a semi-wild state (this mozzarella is protected by its own European law).
The genuine Neapolitan pizza dough consists of Italian flour, natural Neapolitan yeast or brewer's yeast, salt and water.The dough must be kneaded by hand or with a low-speed mixer. After the rising process, the dough must be formed by hand without the help of a rolling pin or other mechanical device, and may be no more than 3 mm (1/8 in) thick.
Pizza is cooked in an oven. When cooked, it should be crispy, tender and fragrant. Neapolitan pizza has gained the status of "guaranteed traditional specialty" in Italy. This admits only three official variants: Pizza marinara, which is made with tomato, garlic, oregano and extra virgin olive oil (although most Neapolitan pizzerias also add basil to the marinara), Pizza Margherita, made with tomato,mozzarella, basil and extra virgin olive oil, and Pizza Margherita DOC made with tomato, buffalo mozzarella from Campania in fillets, basil and extra virgin olive oil.
Lazio style: Pizza in Lazio (Rome), as well as in many other parts of Italy is available in 2 different "flavors": 1) In take-away shops so-called "Pizza Rustica" or "Pizza a Taglio". Pizza is cooked in long, rectangular baking pans and relatively thick (1-2 cm). The crust similar to that of an English muffin and mostly cooked in an electric oven. When purchased, it is usually cut with scissors or knife and priced by weight. 2) In Pizza Restaurants (Pizzerias) it is served in a dish in its traditional round shape.
Other types of Lazio-style pizza include:
Pizza Romana (in Naples): tomato, mozzarella, anchovies, oregano, oil;
Pizza Viennese: tomato, mozzarella, German sausage, oregano, oil;
Pizza Capricciosa ("Capricious Pizza"): mozzarella, tomato, mushrooms, artichokes, cooked ham, olives, and oil.
Pizza Quattro Stagioni ("Four Seasons Pizza"): same ingredients for the Capricciosa, but ingredients are not mixed;
Pizza Quattro Formaggi ("Four Cheese Pizza"): tomatoes, mozzarella, stracchino, fontina, gorgonzola.
Sicilian-style pizza has its toppings baked directly into the crust.
White pizza (pizza bianca) uses no tomato sauce, often substituting pesto or dairy products such as sour cream. Most commonly, especially on the East Coast of the United States, the toppings consist only of mozzarella and ricotta cheese drizzled with olive oil and basil and garlic. In Rome, the term pizza bianca refers to a type of bread topped only with olive oil. Some white pizzas use Alfredo sauce as the pizza sauce for a better flavor.
Pizza al taglio
Pizza al taglio or pizza al trancio was invented in Rome. It is usually rectangular, and sold by weight. The name translates to pizza by the slice. Stands selling pizza al taglio are common in Italy. It is also common in other areas of the world where there are many Italian immigrants.
Pizzerias
Antica Pizzeria Port'Alba, the first pizzeria in Italy, started making pizzas in 1738 and still serves pizza today.
Some global pizza franchises are Pizza Hut, Domino's Pizza, Cici's Pizza, Papa John's and Little Caesars.
Frozen pizza
Frozen pizza is pizza that has been prepared beforehand, and is then deep-frozen, to be distributed in supermarkets. It is among the most successful and popular types of convenience food. It is prepared slightly differently: First the dough with the tomato sauce is pre-cooked, then the toppings are added. The dough of frozen pizza is different. Its dough also contains modified starch and leavening agents. This makes it possible to cook the pizza directly, without first defrosting it. One main frozen pizza brand is Digiorno. |

China's Cognitive Dissonance

The statistics of environmental breakdown in China
In China, 14,000 new cars enter circulation every day, 52,000 miles of roads are under construction, 70% of electricity is generated from coal, and a new coal-fired plant comes online nearly every week. Seventy five percent of urban residents breathe grossly polluted air; it kills 750,000 people annually.
Twenty percent of the water used in in urban China is lost through leaky pipes. Shanghai and Tianjin have sunk six feet over the last 15 years as precious underground water reserves are used up, causing skyscrapers to tilt and encouraging coastal flooding. In Beijing, factories, buildings and pipelines have all been destroyed through plundering underground aquifers, resulting in land subsidence.
The country, roughly the same size as the United States, is 20% desert, which is advancing at more than 1,300 square miles a year. Entire villages in China's north have been submerged in sand by encroaching desert. The country's State Forestry Administration estimates that desertification affects 400 million Chinese, many of whom lose the ability to farm their land or graze their animals, joining tens of millions of internal environmental refugees, who often migrate to big cities in search of new homes and jobs.
It is often argued that once China lifts itself out of poverty it can then turn to protecting its environment. However at current rates of degradation, there will be little or no environment left worth protecting by the time its growth fetish is satisfied. As pressure on China's leaders mounts from its own population (there are more than 50,000 environmental disputes in China every year), the rest of the world is increasingly impatient with the country's failure to turn its environmental situation around. Pollutants that build up and threaten China's ecosystem and the health of its people also traverse the Pacific and affect the United States and other countries. China's contribution to global climate change has begun to dwarf that of the rest of the world. It already ranks as the world's largest importer of illegally logged timber and the biggest polluter of the Pacific Ocean. (Source: CNN)

300 years to turn back China's desertification
An area of China the size of America's Rhode Island is lost to desertification each year. At the current rate of progress it will take 300 years to turn back the country's advancing deserts, a senior official has stated, bemoaning the low level of investment in fighting the environmental disaster. "The area of land being desertified is enormous, and prevention work is exceptionally difficult," Liu Tuo, head of China's anti-desertification efforts, told a news conference in December 2010. "There is about 1.73 million square km of desertified land in China, of which about 530,000 square km can be treated. At our present rate of treating 1,717 square km a year, I've just calculated we'll need 300 years. Investment is wholly insufficient, with a huge gap currently existing for our needs".
In some parts of China, which Liu did not name, regional governments are not taking the problem seriously enough. "They say it is important, but their actions show that's not the case...while climate change is exacerbating the problem, through drought that aggravates desertification." (Source: Reuters)
Weather extremes in 2010
In 2010, China experienced the most frequent and severe weather extremes of the decade. Chen Zhenlin, spokesman for the China Meteorological Administration, said the case numbers of extremely high temperature days and extreme precipitation had rarely been seen in history; as were the intensity and the area effected by these extreme weather events.
The country experienced the longest hot spell since 1961, as the national average number of days of extremely hot weather climbed to 3.5 days more than normal. Average temperature reached a historical high of 2 degrees Celsius higher than normal. Average daily precipitation at China's 97 meteorological stations was the highest ever, and the annual number of cases of extreme rainfall was the largest since 1961. No less than 7 tropical cyclones made landfall in southern China. (Source: Xinhua)
Global warming is responsible
The number of extreme weather events in China has been increasing since 2000, and in 2010, the country experienced the most serious consequences to date. In summer there were an average of 10 days with temperatures at or above 35C., another round of drought started in September 2010.
Extreme rainstorms followed the hot summer weather. Ninety-seven weather stations around China reported record-breaking daily rainfall, and 133 broke annual records. More than half the tropical hurricanes formed typhoons and hit coastal regions in East and South China; the highest landfall ratio in history. "In the past 12 months, we experienced extreme weather more often than in any other year of the past decade. Global warming was largely to blame," said Chen Zhenlin, director of emergency response, disaster mitigation and public services department of the CMA. "The common point of these extreme weather events was their close connection to heavier rain, which results from climate change". (Source: China Daily)
A long-awaited energy plan
Chinese state media is reporting that the National Energy Administration has finalized a 10-year new energy development plan that requires a cumulative investment of 5 trillion yuan ($740 billion) to realize. The plan provides a strategy to help China realize its goals of deriving 15% of primary energy mix from non-fossil sources, and also reduce its carbon intensity by 45% by 2020. It will be sent to the State Council for approval.
This plan seems to be China’s long-awaited new energy stimulus plan and provides almost double the investment dollars expected. Most likely, this amount represents total investment by combination of central, provincial and local governments in addition to the private sector. The details released so far are still impressive. A comprehensive breadth of sectors fall under China's “new energy” concept–not just renewables like wind and solar but also energy efficiency, nuclear, smart grid, transportation, unconventional natural gas, and more efficient use of fossil fuels. (Source: Green Leap Forward)
World’s largest wind power capacity
China now has the world's highest wind power capacity, having added 62% (16GW) of new capacity last year alone. The country's total installed wind power capacity reached 42GW at the end of last year, said Li Junfeng, secretary general of the Chinese Renewable Energy Industries Association. By comparison, installed wind capacity in the United States increased to 40GW at the end of 2010. Wind power capacity connected to grid networks totalled 23GW at the end of August 2010, according to the China Electricity Council. Some wind farms have been working far below capacity as local grid capacity is unable to accommodate intermittent sources. Some wind turbines have even stood idle from day one because of lack of grid access. China's National Energy Administration is considering how to ensure grid connections for a planned wind power capacity of 90GW in 2015. (Source: Reuters)
Soaring economy undermines climate & energy goals
In 2009, experts at the International Energy Agency proposed a target for China’s carbon emissions to peak in 2020 before declining, if the world were to be saved from devastating climate change. It’s too late for that scenario now. Figures from BP showed earlier this year that Chinese emissions will steamroll through the Paris-based IEA’s 2020 peak target next year, nearly a decade early with no sign of slowing down.

This is a relay breakout board which comes with full isolation using opto-coupler design. The relay comes with 5VDC and 12VDC version which has full isolation from the TTL/Digital output pins from your micro-controller or Arduino
The board also comes with easy solder pad at the back to allow you to thicken the connection either by adding more solder and soldering extra thick wires. This feature is good if you want to use the relay contacts (NO/NC) to control high current (DC/AC) devices.
There is a jumper that shorts COM to GND. Do NOT remove this jumper for the relay to work, in general.
If the TTL (control) signal needs to be isolated from the input power supply, the jumper has to be removed. In such cases, connect the power supply Ground to COM and the Controller Ground to GND.

I've just returned from yet another foray into the wilds of TechEd, having attended Microsoft TechEd 2011 in Atlanta earlier this week. I've written a bit about some of the Microsoft news and announcements from the show, and you can see some of what Paul Thurrott thought about TechEd as well. While there was a fair amount of product news and announcements -- and, of course, our annual Best of TechEd Awards Program -- the predominant theme of the show was how the industry (and IT professionals in particular) are adapting to the cloud.
For years we've been hearing about the different ways that cloud computing is being viewed by IT professionals and the senior executives at their companies. It's easy (and often inaccurate) to generalize, but I think it's safe to say that many business decision makers and C-titles are attracted by the promise of improved ROI, reduced IT expenses, and the greater IT agility that the cloud can provide, while IT pros are concerned about security, auditing, compliance, and a raft of other issues. There's also an undercurrent of fear mixed in with the aforementioned discussion points, as some IT pros worry that increasing cloud adoption could translate into job losses. Namely theirs.
Let's be honest here: If a company outsources their email system to a cloud provider, how many Exchange admins will end up looking for work? Granted, that fear is probably overstated, as the cloud is still in its infancy and still on the fluffy, fog-spewing, hype-machine end of the technology adoption curve. (Quick aside: A thought-provoking post on the topic of cloud computing hype by IT consultant Thaddeus Howze ( @ebonstorm) entitled " The Cloud Conversation No One Is Happy Having" is well worth a read.)
TechEd is normally attended by IT admins and developers (although the latter attends in smaller numbers), and their opinion of the cloud differs markedly. You can see that difference on the faces of panelists at two different cloud-focused career development panels Windows IT Pro hosted at TechEd on the evening of May 15th. Here's a photo of the developer panel:
Lots of smiles all around, right? The cloud has proven to be a great tool for developers, and I think you'd be hard-pressed to find a developer dead-set against the cloud. Contrast that with this shot of panelists from the IT professional career panel:
Not many smiles on this panel, is there? A Windows IT Pro editor that attended both sessions told me that the developer audience was more excited and optimistic about the cloud, while the IT professional panel was more somber and less positive, with more audience members raising concerns about job losses and other negative aspects of the cloud.
So I was curious what TechEd attendees had to say about the cloud in their own words, so I sent the following Tweet out with the #msteched hasthtag on May 16th:
The responses run the gamut, but just from my admittedly unscientific and unarguably flawed Twitter survey it seems that IT pros in attendance aren't -- as a group -- overly thrilled about the cloud.
(A quick thank you and hat tip to Twitter users @lectricx, @wheels847, @orinthomas, @_JoeKelly_, @ebonstorm, @mikerigsby, @bit9, and @Dansam_preston for their Twitter responses at TechEd.)
So what are your thoughts about cloud computing hype, adoption, and career impact? Let me know what you think by commenting on this blog post or following me on Twitter.

U.S. Department of Education
This is the last issue of ED Review for 2009. Publication will resume January 8, 2010. I wish you a safe and happy holiday season.
On December 3, after a public comment period, Secretary Duncan announced the final requirements for $3.5 billion in Title I School Improvement Grants to turn-around the nation's lowest-performing schools. "As a country, we all need to get into the turn-around business," the Secretary said. "Today, we are providing $3.5 billon and four models that have proven results so that school districts, unions, charter operators, universities, and the business community can come together to turn around our nation's lowest-performing schools. Adults need the courage to make these tough decisions and do right by our children." These funds are made available to states by formula (applications are now available and due no later than February 8, 2010) and competed for by districts. As they compete for the funding, districts must identify the schools they want to transform and then determine which of the models is most appropriate.
The models include:
Title I School Improvement Grants are funded by $546 million in the Fiscal Year 2009 appropriations and $3 billion from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). The funds will be spent over the next three years. The Department is also making available the 5% in administrative funds for states, to assist with planning and program activities related to grants implementation.
Today, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) is expected to release updates to its guidance on ARRA reporting requirements. The Department will post this information as soon as it becomes available. The next reporting period (covering October 1 through December 31, 2009) begins January 1, 2010.
Last week, the Secretary joined more than 6,000 officials from colleges and universities in Nashville for the Department's annual Federal Student Aid (FSA) Conference. In a morning keynote address, he outlined the Obama Administration's higher education agenda and its plans to improve college completion. Specifically, he emphasized the administration's commitment to college aid and assistance programs, calling it the "biggest investment in student aid since the GI Bill," and praised the House passage of the Student Aid and Fiscal Responsibility Act. That legislation authorizes up to $87 billion for student aid over the next decade, including $40 billion for mandatory inflation-indexed Pell Grants and $10 billion to strengthen community colleges. The Secretary also discussed the need to eliminate "prohibitive, time-consuming administrative hurdles" by streamlining the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), working with the Internal Revenue Service to electronically retrieve tax return data, and reducing the paperwork for financial aid administrators. Furthermore, the administration proposes saving Americans billions of dollars by transitioning all student loans to the Direct Loans program.
Note: The total number of postsecondary awards below a bachelor's degree (either certificates or associate's degrees) increased 28% to 1.5 million between 1997 and 2007. Indeed, in 2007, 40% of undergraduate credentials conferred by institutions participating in federal financial aid programs were below the bachelor's degree. And while community colleges still account for the largest share of these credentials (58%), the share conferred by private, for-profit institutions increased from 24% in 1997 to 29% in 2007.
The Nation's Report Card: Trial Urban District Assessment (TUDA) Mathematics 2009 describes results from the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) in math for 18 urban districts from across the country. Representative samples of 1,800 to 4,300 fourth- and eighth-grade public school students from the 18 districts participated in the 2009 assessment. Eleven of the districts also participated in the 2005 and 2007 assessments, and 10 districts participated in 2003. Among the results:
TUDA reading results, traditionally released with TUDA math results, will be released later. Revised reading frameworks for the 2009 assessment required some additional analysis. NAEP is administered by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) within the Institute of Education Sciences (IES). FOR MORE INFORMATION, PLEASE GO TO. (Note: Secretary Duncan's statement on the TUDA math results, noting the mixed picture, is available online.)
Secretary Duncan and the U.S. Department of Education have embraced President Obama's vision of an open government. The Secretary has traveled the country to listen to people's ideas for education reform, and the Department is using technology to keep the public informed and engaged. For example, in 2009, the Secretary and his senior staff traveled across the country on a "Listening and Learning" Tour, asking for the public's ideas on how to improve the current Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA). The Secretary held events in every corner of the U.S., from inner-city Detroit and a community school in Orlando to rural villages in Alaska and an Indian reservation in Montana. He also hosted a televised town hall meeting with teachers. By the end of the year, a representative of the agency will have visited every state to hold public meetings. Moreover, the Department has used its web site in innovative ways to provide information about the tour and ask for input. These efforts have included a blog, which invites comments on topics the Secretary has discussed at tour events. Some blog entries resulted in hundreds of comments. The Secretary initiated follow-up conversations with teachers and others who made comments on his blog.
Note: The Secretary latest tour stop was Luke C. Moore Academy Senior High School in Northeast Washington, D.C.
Recently, Secretary Duncan spoke with journalist Gwen Ifill to kick-off the Aspen Institute's "Innovation Economy Conference," which featured forums on how American policymakers, businesses, and public citizens could drive the long-term growth of the U.S. economy.
A new reportthe.
According to the latest annual report released by the Data Quality Campaign, every state is on track to have a longitudinal data system that follows student progress from preschool through college by 2011. Indeed, 11 states now have all 10 essential elements of a longitudinal data system, an improvement from 6 states in 2008. However, many states still lack critical elements that could better inform policy discussions.
"Indicators of School Crime and Safety: 2009," by NCES and the Bureau of Justice Statistics, presents the most current available data on school crime and school safety. Students ages 12-18 were victims of about 1.5 million crimes in 2007, with some 55% of these crimes reported as thefts and the rest reported as violent crimesranging from simple assault to serious violence. Regarding the safety of students at school: in each year during the period 1992-93 to 2006-07, there were at least 50 times as many homicides away from school than at school, and at least 150 times as many suicides away from school than at school.
"Today, I'm calling on state lawmakers to rethink and rewrite the hundreds of pages of state code that limit the ability of school districts to succeed in promoting student learning, especially in our lowest-performing schools. I urge you to do the tough work of addressing the grossly inequitable distribution of resources that now prevails in a number of states and districts. And, I urge you to build the capacity of districts to challenge the status quo and implement far-reaching reforms to dramatically improve education.... Ultimately, when it comes to...state laws, our guiding principles should be straightforward: does a law advance student learning and do what's right for kids?"
Reminder! On a "special edition" of the Department's "Education News Parents Can Use" broadcast (December 15, 2:00-3:00 p.m. ET), Secretary Duncan will host a national town hall meeting with students to discuss what is working and what still needs improvement in the nation's schools. > |

Life is Good
We own a 2000 model, 65-foot Lakeview houseboat, with four bedrooms and two baths. Our family includes myself, my wife Jamie, our 9-year-old son Larson (named after my first cabin cruiser), our 5-year-old daughter Lauren, and our dog named Shiloh (named after a nearby marina). We have owned the boat for about four years now, and it is our home away from home. We go to the lake about every weekend, all year long.
Picking the name for our boat came very easily to us. Once we started looking at boats, we knew life would be good on a houseboat, so we agreed once we found our dreamboat, it would be called Life Is Good. And it has been very very good.

Dulce Amor () is the fifth and last independent LP record by Selena. The album became the final album to be released from RP Records. Selena's brother, A.B. Quintanilla III had became the main songwriter. Selena recorded fourteen songs but only released ten. All the songs were recorded in three different recording studios. Dulce Amor helped Selena to be noticed at the 1989 Tejano Music Awards. She was then signed by EMI Latin. The album had only sold over 30,000 copies. It was ordered to be removed from stores by EMI Records.
Most of the songs produced were Tejano music mixed with Cumbia and Jazz fusion. Dulce Amor was nominated for "Album of the Year" while the song of the same name was nominated for "Song of the Year". Selena had won "Female Vocalist of the Year" and "Female Entertainer of the Year". Selena had promoted the album during her Dulce Amor Tour which had only lasted for less than a year. The album had mixed to negative reviews from music critics. The album was re-released in 2007 as "Classic Series Vol. 5".
Production and development
After Selena's sixth LP record Preciosa (1988) sold only 25,000 copies, the company had wanted Selena to record another record. The success from Preciosa had the company believing that Selena would sell more copies with her next album. In July 1988, Selena was in the recording studio and began recording songs. Her brother, A.B. Quintanilla III had became the main songwriter for Selena. Juan Gabriel, a Mexican songwriter, had given Selena the rights to record "Costumbres". Ricky Vela, a Selena y Los Dinos member, had written the song "Quisiera Darte". The song "Que" was written by Manny Guerra, the record manager for RP Records and GP Productions. The songs "Tu Solamente Tu" and "La Puerta Se Cerro" were written by unknown writers. On the liner notes, the writing credits are given to "Pendiente" which means "Pending" in Spanish.
It had took Selena three weeks to record fourteen songs. However, the record company only had wanted ten songs to be on the album. The others remained unreleased. Selena had recorded the songs "Dulce Amor", "Tu Solamente Tu", "La Puerta Se Cerro", "Costumbres", and "Dime" at RP Records studios in San Antonio, Texas. The songs "Always Mine", "No Llores Mas Corazon" and "Carino, Carino Mio" were recorded in Houston, Texas. "Quisiera Darte" and the unreleased tracks were recorded in Hollywood, California. The song "Tu Solamente Tu" was originally recorded by Selena for her debut album Selena y Los Dinos (1984).
While Selena was performing at the 1989 Tejano Music Awards, Jose Behar (who was the former head of Sony Music Latin) was among the audience that night. He instantly wanted Selena to sign with EMI. Behar called his boss stating that he believe he had found the next Gloria Estefan. His boss told him that he was crazy, because Behar only had been in South Texas for only a week. Selena was later signed with EMI Latin the following year. Dulce Amor became her last independent LP record.
Release
Dulce Amor was released on December 24, 1988. The album was supposed to be released in the summer of 1989. However, Manny Guerra had wanted the album to be released real quick. Guerra believed that if the album would have been released in the summer, that not too many Tejano fans would buy the album. He said, because popular music albums are released in that period. When the album was released, it had sold only 2,000 copies the first day. Preciosa (1988) had sold 3,600 copies on its first day. Guerra was not happy about the sales of the album. However, within a month the album sold 10,000 copies. It outperformed all of Selena's previous records. By August 1989, the album sold 33,206 copies. It was then pulled off shelves because of Selena's upcoming debut album with EMI Latin. EMI Latin bought all the original copies of the album. Only 50,000 copies of the album were shipped in Texas alone.
In 1995, Selena's father Abraham Quintanilla Jr had bought the rights to Selena's albums (1984-1989 period) from EMI Latin. Since then, he has released the songs in compilation albums. The songs "Always Mine", "No Llores Mas Corazon" and "La Puerta Se Cerro" were selected to be remixed for Anthology (1998).
On September 7, 2007, Quintanilla Jr re-released the album as part of the "Classic Series" collection. "Dulce Amor" was then re-titled "Classic Series Vol. 5". All the songs were remastered.
Composition
"Dulce Amor" ("Sweet Love") was the lead single from Dulce Amor. The song was written by A.B. Quintanilla III. It was produced by Timothy Muniz. "Dulce Amor" was nominated for "Song of the Year" at the 1989 Tejano Music Awards. The song had its key signature in common time. It was performed on G minor with 106 beats per minute. The songs lyrics are about a girl expressing her emotions about a guy she really love. The song was mixed with Cumbia music and Jazz fusion.
"Que" ("What") was the second single released from Dulce Amor. The song's writer is unknown. It was produced by Manny Guerra. The song was performed on G minor with 147 beats per minute. The songs lyrics are about a girl who has been tricked into believing that a guy really loved her. She feels a sense of loneliness and doubts herself. The songs' message is that, you can't always trust someone until you get to know them for who they really are. The song was mixed with Ranchera music and Mariachi.
"Always Mine" was the third single released from Dulce Amor. The song was written by A.B. Quintanilla III. It was produced by Roger Garcia, who was the former back-up guitarist for Selena y Los Dinos. "Always Mine" was selected to be remixed for Anthology (1998). The remixed version peaked at number four on the Hot Dance Club Songs chart and number 94 on the Canadian Hot 100. The song describes a teen romance. A young girl who is under peer pressure by her friends must decide who she wants to be with. She struggles with low self-esteem. The song had its key signature in common time. It was performed on B minor with 100 beats per minute. The song was mixed with Polka, Pop and Contemporary R&B.
"Carino, Carino Mio" ("Sweetheart, Sweetheart of Mine") was the fourth single released from Dulce Amor. The song was written by A.B. Quintanilla III. It was produced by Lauren and Carlos Diaz. The songs lyrics are about a girl who is in love with a guy. She sings about giving anything to him, just to be with him. The song had its key signature in common time. It was performed on D major with 103 beats per minute. The song was mixed with Polka and Jazz.
"Quisiera Darte" ("I Give") was the fifth and last single released from Dulce Amor. The song was written by Ricky Vela, who was the lead keyboardist for Selena y Los Dinos. The song was produced by Manny Guerra. The songs lyrics are about a girl asking her boyfriend if their relationship is "love". She tells him that she would do anything for him, and feels that their relationship is love. The song had its key signature in common time. It was performed on C minor with 93 beats per minute. The song was mixed with Jazz and Cumbia music.
Promotion
Selena had promoted Dulce Amor during her Dulce Amor Tour. Selena also promoted Preciosa (1988) along with her Dulce Amor Tour. This was because the two albums were released in the same year. Selena had performed songs from Dulce Amor on the Johnny Canales Show in South Texas, she also had done live concerts across Texas. Selena earned $20,000 from the Dulce Amor Tour, which was double the amount she had made for her Preciosa Tour.
Critical reception
Norberto Garcia of Texas Monthly stated that Dulce Amor was one of Selena's "strongest" LP record because it "showcase her exotic voice and expanded her talents[...]". Domingo Rivera of Tejano Nation believed every song on Dulce Amor was horrible. Rivera stated that he did not like not even one song. He also stated that Selena could have done better with modern styles of Tejano music instead of mixing 1960s music into her songs. Rivera then stated the album was "out of date" even when it was released in 1988. Sophia Vargas of Tejano Weekly believed that "Dulce Amor" was not Selena's best of work. Vargas believed that RP Records did not put their "all" for Selena.

The g-force of an object is its acceleration relative to free fall. On earth this is 1g, or 9.8 meters per second squared (m/s^2) or equivalently newtons of force per kilogram of mass (N/kg). Astronauts experience unusually high and low g-forces. G-force can also be seen on rollercoasters. When the coaster goes down the drop, you are pushed back into your seat because of g-force. Negative g-forces is when gravity is pushing you downwards causing you to feel weightless. (Going down a rollercoaster) Positive g-forces is when gravity is pushing against you causing you to feel heavier. (Going up a rollercoaster)

John Punch ( 1630s, living 1640) was an enslaved African who lived in the colony of Virginia. Thought to have been an indentured servant, Punch attempted to escape to Maryland. In July 1640, the Virginia Governor's Council sentenced him to serve as a slave for the rest of his life. Two European men who ran away with him received a lighter sentence of extended indentured servitude. For this reason, some historians consider John Punch the "first official slave in the English colonies," and his case as the "first legal sanctioning of lifelong slavery in the Chesapeake." Some historians also consider this to be one of the first legal distinctions between Europeans and Africans made in the colony, and a key milestone in the development of the institution of slavery in the United States.
In July 2012, Ancestry.com published a paper suggesting that John Punch was a twelfth-generation grandfather of President Barack Obama on his mother's side, on the basis of historic and genealogical research and Y-DNA analysis. Punch's descendants were known by the Bunch or Bunche surname. Punch is also believed to be one of the paternal ancestors of the 20th-century American diplomat Ralph Bunche, the first African American to win the Nobel Peace Prize. |

Vintage. My passion. It's really where my love of fashion began—roaming through London's ancient streets and strolling the narrow streets of the beloved Paris flea markets'. Everywhere you turn, you would find a piece even more impressive than the next. Interestingly enough, the name Faded Cloth came from the idea that old has always been so much better than new. The concept of creating new collections that had the feeling of being lived in was and will always be my inspiration for designing new products. Our new "Found" collection is a curated mix of vintage that encompasses our vision, drive for quality, and well-made pieces. We love balancing new with "well worn". Our inventory will be forever revolving, so please continue to check the site regularly. Please be patient with us as we get everything unwrapped from the archives, photographed, and online.
Enjoy the journey!
We're so glad you are here.

Mint — We reserve this grade for records that appear perfect in every way.
NM- — Records that could be mint, but have slight scuffs or imperfections. Likely will play like a mint record, but not quite as perfect.
VG++ — Records that are in very good shape, but do show some wear. Cartridge damage (scratches) should not interfere with music. Certainly no skips, or pops that distract from listening enjoyment.
VG+ — A record that is in good shape, but with some damage that could be distracting, in quiet sections particularly. Also, records that are largely damage free, but appear to be worn.
VG — A record of less quality that we would hope to offer. Still worth having, especially at the much reduced price you will see.
VG- — A record that is damaged to the point where you might not enjoy it that much. Sometimes we offer these just because they have a unique cover.
Note about record covers:
We take into account covers to some degree. Mint records can't be mint, unless the cover is perfect. We would prefer to grade the vinyl itself. Since we have photos, and comment on the cover as necessary, we use the 'grade' for the vinyl primarily. If a cover's grade is out of line with the vinyl's grade, we will comment on that as needed.

I trust this February 2019 edition of KMS “Robservations” finds you very well…
Rob Knowsley LLB.
The strongest thread from my consulting in the past month has been in relation to lawyer productivity.
There is a very wide range of views on what ‘lawyer productivity’ actually means, but most have a central idea that revolves around efficiency in converting all the relevant inputs into useful outputs.
Regular readers will be aware that I have for many years been concerned that despite all the fantastic technology available the productivity of many lawyers has not increased much, and is often still quite dismal.
Readers may already have noted the Clio 2018 Legal Trends Report, based on extremely broad data and interviews, demonstrating that the average small firm lawyer in the US actually recovers fees for much less than 2 hours/day! That is very poor productivity indeed. When fees recovered in the limited time are lower than reasonable the productivity is even less useful. The evidence tracks along with data from the two previous Clio Legal Trends reports. Report Here
On this note I had great pleasure in accepting an invitation from Roni Millard, General Manager-Sales & Marketing at LEAP, and the CEO of LEAP, Brendan Smart, to be one of two participants in a roundtable discussion on productivity to be facilitated by him in Sydney in late February. Interested readers may wish to keep eyes open for the resulting white paper/e-book.
See below information on the Small Law Industry Summit in Sydney in March. If any reader would like a complimentary pass please email me.
I can’t let this month go by without congratulating the team at Rainey Collins in Wellington on achieving the 100 years milestone!
Mr. R. Collins commenced practice in early 1919, shortly after returning from war service, and was joined in partnership shortly thereafter by Mr. W. Rainey.
The firm is a very good example of how small firms can survive and prosper, adapting to the plethora of changes and challenges in the Profession, growing strongly, and avoiding the urge to merge so prevalent among smaller firms in recent decades.
The four current Principals have an excellent spread of experience and ages, with all being parents or grand-parents, and two currently flexibly and successfully combining their careers with parenting responsibilities for a number of young children.
With a superb team of 11 other legal members, and the valued support team, the firm is well-placed to continue to grow and thrive beyond this “RC100 Year” for a very long time to come.
I’m sure all readers join with me in wishing the whole RC team a superb year of suitable celebrations with clients and other supporters alike, and many a year of rewarding, enjoyable, practice to come.
Often when I talk Marketing with lawyers in small firms the conversation gets quickly to a point where they confess they just don’t know where to start.
I suggest they focus on two areas:
The next step is to develop the habit of providing a flow of that relevant, helpful, information on a consistent basis, using tools that work for the lawyer and the recipients.
Most of the ideas for suitable content will come from the lawyer’s experiences with current matters, important changes in legislation, or significant case decisions.
It is hard to find any lawyer, looking regularly, who will not have a deep pool of potential content to work with.
Now it’s important not to procrastinate…just do it…like voting, ‘early and often’.
It will only be considered an irritation by recipients if it is not relevant to them…and you will not be sending ‘junk’, so warmly accept unsubscribes and press on.
The effort invested in helping people is worth it of itself, and it will also pay off in a very healthy flow of enquiry in the fullness of time.
In each issue I look to introduce comment about a management issue that revolves around “the numbers”.
A key area of “the numbers” is averages. What relevance does “average” have for you?
“Average” has numerous meanings, particularly because it can be used as a noun, adjective, or verb.
The meaning I want to address here is often used in the context of a pronouncement, by a Principal of a small legal firm, of this ilk…”But we’re doing better than the average small firm”.
Close examination of the firm’s financials usually reveals that in terms of real profit, the firm isn’t doing very well at all.
In fact, very often it is not long into my relationship with the firm that the Principal(s) willingly confess that they think the firm could be doing a lot better.
Apologies that, despite a good bit of research on the Web, I have not been able to dig up who it was who first said, “Average represents the cream of the crap”.
This quote is simply dripping with perception.
When an extraordinarily low percentage of small legal firms generate a decent profit after allowance for a proper Principal’s salary, taking an average of the profitability of all small legal firms in any particular “set” does not generate much of a number!
To be better than that number is not necessarily a particularly great place to be, especially if it is way below where you have invested in the current resources to be, operating well.
Investing strongly, working hard, and earning in total less than some employees is not optimal, not reflective of smart management, and not rewarding.
Nor is it necessary, a situation that is structural and unavoidable, for small law firms.
Quite minor, common sense, easily do-able, changes in operating produce dramatic changes in profitability.
It goes without saying that the necessary changes need to be identified, and led, from the top. The Principal is the captain of the ship!
For private practice lawyers a never-ending major challenge is getting the relationship right between FirmTime, ClientTime and private time.
My advice is always to prepare a WorkPlan™ that documents the coming year in terms of available days after all planned holidays, and sets out an average day in your own circumstances, with division between investing time in existing work, and investing time in ensuring desirable future work/administration.
Most lawyers allow more FirmTime than they actually spend, and because so many do not bother to track that important investment they do not know its real scope or real nature. In my experience far too much available time assumed to be FirmTime is actually wasted or valueless time.
For most full-time lawyers in small law firms there will be about 220 working days in a year. As an example, a lawyer investing an average 8 hours a day will have 1760 hours to work with.
If a maximum of 2 hours/day is allocated to FirmTime, or 440/year, the remaining 6 hours is available for ClientTime, 1320 hours.
At, say, $385/hour average the six hours has potential around $500,000, and the two hours an “opportunity cost” of around $170,000.
You can acquire a lot of assistance for $85,000 if you can identify things you are doing for 50% of current FirmTime, say an hour a day, that don’t make a lot of sense for you to be doing! If nobody should be doing them at all that’s different again!
Prioritise the FirmTime and the ClientTime so the genuinely important FirmTime investments do get made before you are too tired to feel you can be bothered. In particular, if you do not much like Business Development, you will be less likely to throw yourself into it, or be effective, if you are tired.
Beyond LinkedIn, in which I invest an average of ten minutes a day first thing, I find it easiest to attack Business Development mid-morning after a number of high priority ClientTime investments have been made and there is a sense of achievement to power me forward!
Writing articles, preparing for seminars/workshops, ‘building’ elements of the next issue of “Robservations”, making phone calls, emailing gatekeepers, designing service offerings…all aspects of Business Development are easier while you are close to the top of each day’s energy curve.
Readers without a WorkPlan™ who would like a template to work with…feel free to email me… [email protected]
Inaugural Small Law Industry Summit: Sofitel Wentworth Sydney, Thursday 14 March, 2019.
I’m very privileged to be asked to join an impressive list of 14 other speakers at the inaugural Small Law Industry Summit in Sydney on Thursday 14 March, 2019. Registrations are already heading towards the 400 mark!
Full day Agenda can be found HERE
Incredible value, with 6 CPD points available, and 50% of ticket sales go to a very worthy charity.
I can access some free passes thanks to the generosity of the hosts, LEAP…please email me if interested in attending what promises to be a very thought-provoking day!
Quote from the Summit webpage…
“The Small Law Industry Summit will convene some of the legal community’s most prominent thought-leaders to discuss key issues of leadership, risk mitigation, practice management and innovation, high-performance cultures, and the fundamental role of technology in shaping the future of the legal profession.
Take-aways and extensive networking opportunities from each session can be applied to the challenges and opportunities you face within your team, your firm and the industry”.
Clients who are members of KMSManagementSupport™ and wanting to tee up dates for visits in the first half of the year, at your heavily discounted member rates, now is the time to jump on that as we have now locked down all visit dates until late December 2019 with our KMSRetainer™ clients.
Dates can be locked away for general site visits to deal with particular challenges or team member training, or for planning sessions.
Every day I get feedback from lawyers in Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the UK that they are concerned about where the Profession is heading, and what they need to do to best respond and avoid severe loss of income, or worse…
“Disruption” and “Innovation” are words heavily bandied about…but, beneath the voluminous verbiage, what are the practical realities?
There are special challenges for small-medium firms that do not have resources of larger firms that can be dedicated to doing the hard yards to come up with the answers, and to implement appropriate activities…
You know many of the issues, and no doubt have some special worries of your own within the large grab-bag…
Changing client expectations and demands…
Changes in competition, from multiple angles…
Increased sophistication in pricing (more fixed-price services certainly, but also way beyond that very limited offering)…
The impact of artificial intelligence…how to look beyond the negatives to the huge positives…
Apparently yet more to do…with the same amount of time to get it done…
Very high thresholds to meet in both mandatory and commercially-wise client disclosure…
New ways of delivering services…and unbundling of services…
Dealing with the necessity to change yourself to being very adaptable…like a start-up business owner learning on the run…
Changes in the way services are marketed (in all sensible channels, not just the Web)…
Meeting accelerating expectations from team members for agile working…
How to move forward with IT…lawyers are notoriously bad at keeping up to date with developments…
Avoiding all discrimination…
To specialise or not to specialise?
How to get proper, effective, performance from team members (including Principals)…
Maintaining and improving real profitability after Principals’ proper salaries…
Affording the sorts of resources you believe you may need to assist with strategy, planning, and implementation while you continue to try to generate appropriate revenue!
These are just examples…there’s a very long, and continuously-evolving, list!
Fortunately, I’m working closely with numerous small-medium firms that are clear market leaders, having responded smartly year after year for a long time, and continue to do so…and of course I get to observe lots of situations in which small firm lawyers are dropping the ball.
In March I will be running a number of discussion sessions in Australia for small groups of lawyers interested in better understanding what may need to be done, refreshing or changing focus, seeing the wood for the trees, and, in particular, what to deal with, how…and in what priority…
There will be plenty of time for in-depth discussion of areas of greatest interest or concern…and as an extra bonus for your investment, of your time and a modest attendance fee, I will be available for telephone discussion, gratis, for two sessions of up to an hour each to suit you during the first half of 2019.
The outcomes…you will go away stimulated, with clarity on what issues are priority for your action in your firm, how you may best attack them, and knowing you can touch base with me a number of times to discuss progress between the workshop and 30 June.
N.B. All sessions will be four hours plus a break, and will be at CBD venues to be confirmed…
Brisbane… Wednesday afternoon 27 March
Sydney… Tuesday afternoon 26 March
Melbourne… Monday afternoon 25 March
$325 GST-inclusive…
Good discounts apply for multiple attendees from one firm…see Registration form for details…
Payment by EFT only please…upon registration.
For Registration form to be sent by email, please click on relevant link above for your preferred location.
I’m delighted that another sole practitioner in New Zealand joined this exclusive program this month…leaving just one membership available.
This program involves membership of a small exclusive club, established by us at KMS in 1988, with a strict cap on memberships. The longest membership is currently 29 years and continuing! Opportunities don’t arise very often.
Key benefits…
Broad, fast, access to undoubtedly the most experienced Legal Profession mentor available for small-medium law firms…whenever needed…by email, web or telephone…
Unlimited assistance with considering appropriate approaches to day-to-day practice management challenges.
Unlimited review of draft articles/other content submitted in Word, and suggested embedded/marked-up changes based on readability and genuine helpfulness to clients, referrers etc.
Massive discounts on standard rates for site visits…or special projects outside the scope of KMSMS membership benefits.
We now have one membership opportunity again available…on the ”first-in, best-dressed” basis…
Very affordable subscriptions can be paid quarterly, six-monthly or annually in advance, to suit member firms’ cash flows, with the largest discounts for annually. KMSLoyalty™ benefits apply to membership, and continuous membership guarantees that membership fees will not rise for at least three years!
Membership subscription is based on current practice size…please email details so we can advise terms specific to your practice.
Testimonials from your peers available at this link…
With all the commentary about Legal Profession disruption even those Principals who would be prepared to make changes to adapt and prosper can find great difficulty deciding what things should be done in their particular circumstances, and with what priority.
Views within a firm can differ greatly, risking paralysis in taking important action promptly. In this market in particular, delay can be deadly.
The KMSPracticeHealth™ Report is a simple process that brings our great experience to your firm, quickly getting to understand where you’re at, and what you’re hoping to achieve, and giving you clear recommendations on what we would do, in what order, if it was our firm.
As usual, getting quality perspective from outside the firm can unlock logjams in ways that seemed impossible to achieve internally, and get the firm rolling forward strongly again.

We had the weirdest apartment searching experience ever when we visited 1810 San Carlos Ave.
Our apointment to view this 2 Bdr unit was at 4:30pm. Our arrival at 4:20pm found us inching our way through the parking lot which was narrow and terraced providing a bumpy and nervous ride (the whole complex was on a hill, and was named ___ terrace, so everything was terraced for stability i guess).
We tried to follow the signs to find the rental office. We got lost somewhere around the pool where current residents pointed us upstairs to an apartment which served as the office. We tapped on the sliding glass door of the apartment and this 10-12 yr old skinny kid comes to the door and slides it open.
e or me, (I can't remember): "Uh, we have an appointment at 4:30pm"
kid: "I didn't know that." shuts door. we watch as he runs to the phone. we watch him hang up and come back to us with a set of keys.
It was very odd, as he stepped out of the door, he started ringing off the apartment spiel that we heard at every other apartment complex. e and I could barely hide giggles and smiles as we went up and down stairs and around corners to some shitty ass apartments shown to us by this prepubescent child.
The whole experience was like a trip to another time and place separate from the rest of our day. It felt like this complex had been lifted up out of Nowhere, Nevada and plunked oddly into the California landscape. interesting experience...
