Background: Font color:
The Great Hall was full of students. It seemed that everyone was talking about classes, Voldemort and of course about the Quidditch Final. There didn�t exist a single soul in Hogwarts who didn�t know that it was Harry Potter's last game, even Professor Binns. In a few days, Harry would play for the last time at Hogwarts. To his own surprise, he wasn�t nervous, not about this game. True be told he didn�t care anymore. In a bad mood, he pushed his porridge away untouched.
�You have to eat, Harry. Look, I don�t want to lie if Hermione asks,� Ginny said as she pushed the porridge back in front of him.
�You mean she asks you if we eat enough?� Ron inquired, looking shocked and forgetting for a moment to scrape the last bit of porridge out of the bowl.
�No, she asks if Harry eats enough,� Ginny replied loudly.
�Why? I�m her friend, too.� He put his bowl back on the table and started to eye the full one in front of Harry. It didn't take long before Harry had had enough of Ron�s longing look and pushed the bowl to him.
�Because she knows you. If I ate as much as you do, I would explode.� Ginny's worried eyes were fixed on Harry. �You look tired,� she said finally.
�Sorry, but I have to side with Ginny there.� Ron�s voice sounded only half as cheerful as before.
�There's no reason to worry. I�m fine.� Harry tried to smile, but it was more of a grimace.
�You�re not, mate. Even Parvati keeps asking me if you're all right. Mind you, she still stops to corner me even after I told her you and Hermione are fine. True, Hermione is still recovering, but there is no reason to keep asking. Really, I�m tired of this.� Ron shook his head in disbelief.
�Ron, she has every reason to ask,� Ginny muttered half aloud so that only Harry and Ron could hear her. �Hermione has been in the hospital wing for weeks. I can�t remember a student who was ever there so long. Madam Pomfrey said there's no potion or spell that can help her; that�s why it's taking such a long time for her to recover.�
Slowly, Harry closed his eyes and tried not to think what this could mean. Of course, he had already known that there was no potion capable of helping Hermione. He had been there as Madam Pomfrey told her. She hadn�t argued or made any comments; instead, her face had remained tense, without any emotions showing. Somehow he wished she had cried, or argued, or done just about anything other than keep that awful silence, as if in acceptance of her fate. How foolish had Harry been to promise her to search through the entire library to find a solution? But he hadn�t found anything -- it was hopeless.
�Come off it,� said Ron. �Hermione will be fine. Last week she couldn�t move her fingers or hands, but now she's able to hold one of her books and read. Who would've thought the first thing she'd do was read a book?� He laughed loudly.
�Yeah, but do you know how hard this was? How painful? She�s torturing herself. By Merlin, but I don�t know where she gets her willpower.� Harry sighed deeply at Ginny�s words but remained silent.
�Anyway, what time is it?� she asked.
�Enough time 'til classes, Ginny. Lucky for us that we don�t have them anymore, eh, Harry? No more Snape and his one-eyed looks. Couldn�t they leave at least have found him a fake eye? I�m really sorry that you have to put up with him for one year longer,� Ron said gleefully as he scratched with his spoon.
�Thanks, but I still want to know what time it is,� replied Ginny.
�It's half past nine in the morning,� Harry answered, annoyed. This was how every day started. It was driving him crazy. Why couldn�t they just shut up? It was already enough to feel the fixed stares on him every day as he went through the Great Hall to sit down at the Gryffindor table. Why did he still bother going into the noisy hall anymore? Here it was visible like no place else that some people were no longer alive. Harry didn�t dare to look up to the staff table anymore, unwilling to see that Dumbledore was no longer sitting there. Instead it was McGonagall, and at her side Snape, with his one remaining eye.
At the Gryffindor table, too, there were some places left empty. Dean had been one of the first who died in the sixth year. He hadn�t come back from summer. His place at the table remained, just like in the dormitory. It had been a hard year for all of them. Still, Harry could remember how Hermione got the news about her parents �.
�It's time for us to go to the hospital wing!� Ginny's shout knocked Harry out his reverie. Ron gave his sister a questioning look, but Harry just glared at her. He wasn�t in a good mood.
�I � I can�t!� he growled.
�You have to go! Hermione asked, and she�s expecting us. I promised her I'd bring you along,� Ginny retorted, glaring right back at Harry.
Without warning, he slammed his fist on the table. �Damn it! What possessed you to do such a thing? Why?�
Every one of the Gryffindors was watching them now. Suddenly, the table had gone very quiet, the usual noise gone as the other students leaned in to hear. �You don�t want to visit Hermione?� Ginny hissed angrily.
�Of course I want but not now. Not like this,� he snapped back.
�Well, you're just going to have to swallow your bad mood. It's not that difficult. If you don�t want to do it for yourself, then do it for her!�
Harry stood up straight at that and saw Ginny and Ron looking at him as if they expected him to start yelling. �Shall we?� he inquired, in a voice unlike his own. Surprised, Ron goggled at him for a moment before standing up silently.
With great self-control, Harry left the table. He started to walk quickly, not caring that it was difficult for Ron and Ginny to keep up with him. The portraits and corridors blew past him, as interesting now as when he had first come to Hogwarts. But today he didn't have the will to take a look around. It seemed his own emotions were betraying him. It wasn�t fear about his future that made him so moody. It wasn�t even the fact that he was haunted by the past. He wished it were so easy. Since his last visit to Hermione, he had been very confused. At this very moment, though, he finally understood his own feelings. Why, then, was he more lost than before? There was a reason why he only felt good if he was with her, but at the same time so lost if he left her. A reason why it hurt so to see the possibility that she might not recover, hurt more than anything he'd faced in the past seven years. His worst fears were realised -- he was in love.
Harry Potter felt like someone who didn�t know how to be in love. As he reached the door to the hospital wing, he took a deep breath at the sight that greeted him. There was Luna Lovegood gazing dreamily around and waiting for them. This wasn�t a normal visit anymore, it was planned and that made him angry. �What are you doing here?� he shot out as he reached her.
�A good morning to you too, Harry!� was her not unexpected response. She was smiling and only barely looking at him; her gaze was rather aimed at Ron, who reached both of them at this moment, Ginny at his side. �Exactly on time.�
Puzzled, Harry glanced at Ginny, but she kept ignoring him and opened the door. He gave up on trying to get her to divulge what was going on here.
A familiar smell emerged from the hospital wing, which he knew quite well by now. Madam Pomfrey was nowhere to be seen as they entered the wing; she was probably with Snape or just out on the grounds. Through the large windows, daylight lurked lightly into the room, illuminating the scene before him. Harry held his breath as he saw her. This wasn�t possible. There she was, standing on her own feet far away from any bed. Hermione was wearing normal Muggle clothing, a pair of crutches held at her sides. Harry was speechless, truly speechless. There was no thought in his mind at this sight, only an unbelievable warm glowing feeling spreading throughout his body as if someone was hugging, holding him. A broad smile appeared on his face. It nearly hurt, so much did he smile at this, and she was beaming back at him. Her face showed that she was concentrating hard, as it was tense, but there was also a slight glow to it. �Wait! I'm coming to you,� she said, as Ron was about to rush to her.
Everyone was strangely quiet at this. It had been weeks since they had seen her on her feet, and Harry feared they might not see it again. Slowly, but certainly Hermione was walking with the help of crutches, step by step. It was an amazing sight that would have made him cry if he hadn't been so happy. Nothing in his entire life could compare with this happiness that kept washing over his heart as she came closer and closer. Her eyes had been fixed on the floor, but as there were only a few steps left, she raised her eyes to him. As her eyes met his, her face softened, the tense look melting away. On her next step, however, she put her foot down differently, causing her to lose her balance. As if in slow motion, one of the crutches fell to the floor with a loud crash and she staggered, trying desperately to stay on her own feet. Everyone seemed too shocked to react, Ginny putting her hands over her mouth and Luna forming a large �No!� with her lips. Harry was the first to move, dashing towards her, but was too late -- she was already falling. As he reached her, Ron on his heels, she was already on the floor.
Hermione was lying on her stomach. �Are you all right? Did you hurt yourself?� Harry was on his knees beside her.
�I�m fine,� came a muffled answer.
He could tell she was crying, her head buried in her arms so he couldn�t see her. It hurt Harry immensely to see her like that, but slowly he started to feel annoyed that Ginny, Luna and Ron were still goggling at Hermione like the statues in the hallways. �Get out! Go!� Harry yelled at them.
�What?� Ron asked doubtfully.
�Leave her alone. Go!� Harry replied in a sharp tone as he saw how Hermione�s shoulders had started to shake. To his relief, Ron nodded and turned around. Seconds later Harry heard the door close. Carefully, he touched her back and before he quite knew what he was doing, he had gathered her into his arms.
�I can�t-� Hermione started to say, but he interrupted her as he ended the hug and looked at her intensely. Tears were still streaming down her face as he brought his hands up to hold it tenderly. �Hermione, it's all right. You hear me, it's all right. Don�t make yourself crazy!� he whispered, as he tried to wipe away her tears.
Still, her eyes were shining. �But � but --�
�No buts. All that counts is that you are here. You're alive, and that's everything I'll ever need. Just to know that you didn�t leave me makes me so incredibly happy.� Harry smiled at her.
�You don�t know how happy you make me,� Hermione said slowly as she touched his hands.
�I have an idea, though,� he laughed as he bent down and kissed her forehead.

Anyhow, the dermatologist did some tests and I guess I have a pre-cancer on my lower lip. So, I now have to suffer with treating it to kill the cells or whatever. It's going to probably take a month by applying a small portion (chemical) at a time, let blister, bleed, crack, and burn, and continue the monitored process until I finish the lower lip. It's going to be a real pain. My advice to you---- WEAR SUNSCREEN on your LIPS and everywhere else!! Wear the widebrim hat! Listen to your dermatologist!

They're so nice it makes the morning start off just right . Plus the coffee is excellent and nice art
good breakfast sandwiches and coffee drinks in a very intimate setting that is very dog and people friendly.
Seemed like just the ticket for the morning brew. Great coffee, comfortable place, good wifi, patronized by the locals.
Decent coffee, funky interior. Closes pretty early so prepare for that. Great way to charge up as we made our way up PCH.
If you are willing to wait, the food at The Rock is bomb! The bagels and breakfast burritos are the best in Morro bay! Very localized coffee shop, with super friendly staff. and cute garden in the back.
We are early risers this little coffee bar opens at 6 my husband was there just before 6 and they welcomed him in to wait.
We grabbed a quick latte here before setting out on foot to explore the town. The espresso was smooth and the service was attentive.
My new favorite neighborhood coffee hangout... The Rock has everything a local could hope for. A small cafe with indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor tables are on a peaceful tree lined street with a partial bay view, or a nice little garden area in...More
Friendly fun atmosphere. Also excellent breakfast burrito. The owner Jason is fun and gets to know his customers. All the locals go there for there morning coffee/espresso.
Super friendly little shop. Stopped in here by chance while on a road trip. Was blown away by the loaded oatmeal with tons of fresh fruit. Also nabbed a delicious fresh-baked pastry for the road. Nice to find good service, great espresso, and reasonable prices.

I love being confronted. One of the things I like most is listening to a lecture and learning something new that is vital or hearing a sermon that allows the Holy Spirit to convict me. The confrontation that comes from this, whilst may be emotional and make me feel uncomfortable, is very good because it's a blessing from God; it teaches me and makes me grow.
I have had a few conversations with Christians now where maybe I have been too rough with my choice of language, but whether I spoke in a bitter or sweet tone, they respond that they don't like being confronted. Personally, I'm thinking great, they have heard the Holy Spirit and are now seeing their mistake, just like I have many times before. I really love that experience of becoming aware of the darkness within but also having that light to cling onto, so that I may strengthen. But unfortunately, this is (in my experiences) usually not what my brethren are thinking. They are thinking "I do not like being confronted, because I don't want/need to be".
Okay, let's back it up a bit here. As Christians we are followers of Christ. Which means putting off our old self and looking towards the prize which is [in] Jesus Christ (Luke 9:23, Gal 2:20, Phil 3:14). A part of our process which many pastors (especially those Lutheran ones) have repeatedly taught is that we are to realise our sin and then through God become renewed, strengthened, made holy etc. And that is how we become more like Christ, Amen? It concerns me if a brother or sister after a lengthy discussion says 'I do not like being confronted', because it tells me that their focus is not on Christ and the life that He gives, but on them wanting to hide away their faults.
The Holy Spirit convicts us. And we need it.
"And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil. For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed. But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in God."
John 3:19-21
We are beings who have fallen short of God and constantly struggle to maintain good behaviour. To compare light with dark you can see the contrast between each. God is a light unto our lives (John 8:12) and in result He shows us where the dark spots are in our lives and ourselves. Interestingly enough, one of the readings for today Good Friday, is Hebrews 10:16-25 which helps us understand this:
"This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the Lord: I will put my laws in their hearts, and I will write them on their minds," he also adds, "I will remember their sins and their lawless deeds no more."
Where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any offering for sin. Therefore, my friends, since we have confidence to enter the sanctuary by the blood of Jesus, by the new and living way that he opened for us through the curtain (that is, through his flesh), and since we have a great priest over the house of God, let us approach with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.
Let us hold fast to the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who has promised is faithful.
And let us consider how to provoke one another to love and good deeds, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day approaching."
The most important thing for my argument I want to point here is the first verse, "I will put my laws in their hearts, and I will write them on their minds". For when people are revealed to the truth of Christ this collides with their "in-built" knowledge of the law and they instantly understand their sin and see the need for Christ. So to say that you don't want or need to be confronted, is to say you do not want to confess that you are or have been a sinful being who needs Christ.
The second part I want to point out, is the encouragement for faith and hope. If we see we have struggles and faults, we are to have faith and assurance that Christ has made us clean in His death and resurrection. Amen. And we do not need to continue in guilt for we have hope that God may guide us onto the right path.
I know confrontation is hard, but it is necessary. I know sometimes brethren don't take the right approach to talk about it, but the truth still remains. We need confrontation and conviction. We need to see the darkness, the sin, so that we may strive towards the light.
In the follow up to this I will write up a short discussion on how we can approach (and/or confront) Christians and non-Christians peacefully, so that they may learn.
May the Lord bless you and keep you!

In Psychology: Frontiers and Applications, some of Sigmund Freud's theories have been presented. One says, "The conscious mind consists of mental events that we are presently aware of. The preconscious contains memories, thoughts, feelings, and images that we are unaware of at the moment but that can be recalled." The preconscious consists of the facts that are not in awareness, but have been stored latently for use at another time. The unconscious captures information that the consciousness is unable to perceive and then shows itself when a person is in a state of unconsciousness such as dreaming. (3)
The preconscious and unconscious are almost like the left and right of the personality. What is in the preconscious can be made conscious at any moment; what is desired can be perceived to be. The unconscious takes information that it receives that it does not want to make appear in the present state of awareness and it pushes it down, like a guard for the mind.(5)
The unconscious is able to make transitions into the conscious, though, and this is how psychologists and scientists are able to be aware that it does in fact exist; impulses such as a slip of the tongue, dreams, or other hidden behaviors. When two people are arguing one person might let something slip out that they've held inside for so long. Psychoanalysts believe that such acts are results from "holes in our armor for conscious control and true feelings" (3).

New York Challenge
Tuesday, July 30, 2013
As part of an Amazon Local deal a few weeks ago (
), I signed my husband and my friend up for Challenge Nation's NYC Challenge. Figured it was good for us to have a fun race together before the three of us run Disney's Wine and Dine Half in November, and I didn't have any other races on the calendar until September.
This wasn't a traditional 5k, however. Positioned like "The Amazing Race," Challenge Nation sent us off with 12 clues to hunt down different check-in points throughout the city, where we needed to complete certain tasks with photo evidence. In the days leading up to the event, they pushed social media pretty hard core – offering up special "megahints" for liking their Facebook page and sharing suggestions for race clues on Twitter. (A strategy that certainly played a role in ensuring 550 participants showed up on race day!)
With rain looming in the forecast Sunday, I considered staying home and following my usual Sunday workout routine of Bodyworks and Yoga class.
If it wasn't for my teammates – who don't like to let a little rain discourage them – I probably would have missed out on an awesome time.
Sure enough, the rain started about 15 minutes before "go time."
As we were waiting to get our clues, we noticed there were some teams who went all out – full costumes, body paint (notice Spiderman about 3 runners away from me in the photo below? Yup. Body Paint.), etc. If I hadn't signed up for this just two weeks ago, I probably could have come up with a pretty cool team name and theme. We went with the Three Mouseketeers to keep in line with our Disney aspirations.
We also threw together our strategy about five seconds before the race started. Thank goodness we were a team of smartphone users. I played the role of Team Captain. This really just meant I had to wait at the starting line to get our clue sheet.
As soon as we got the clue sheet, we divvied up the location-based challenges and searched key words to find out which parks and monuments we needed to find. Then we assigned responsibility for each of the non-location based challenges. I was responsible for finding a building older than 1760, Diana was on the lookout for someone wearing a t-shirt from another city, and Ben had to find either a clown, a barber pole, or someone with a pet that wasn't a dog.
And then we took off! Diana conserved her smartphone battery so that we could use it as a camera at all of our different stops, while Ben and I took turns using Google maps to get us to where we needed to be. We cursed the teams that were New York natives for having intimate knowledge of the city and knew we'd have to rely on our "blinding speed" if we were to have any shot at winning the race.
Sometime speed can be too blinding. Our team's (self-described) turtle, Ben, stopped within ¼ mile and started shouting at us. I was frustrated that he was slowing us down so early in the race, until he calmly pointed out that we were running right past destination #2 without realizing it. Diana and I sheepishly ran back to him to complete our task, which was to draw a picture of our favorite things about New York with some sidewalk chalk.
We drew pizza and cupcakes. Since going Wheat Free, these are certainly no longer MY favorite things about New York, but the team overruled. Plus pizza and cupcakes are easy to draw. (But it can be really difficult trying to get three team members in one photo at that angle).
We headed off to our next destination, feeling lucky to have Ben's eagle eyes on our team. The lucky feeling continued as the rain slowed down, and the sun peeked out from behind the clouds. Yup, luck was on our side.
It wasn't going to last, however… (Sorry, this was way too much fun not to make into a two-parter).

Ponting perfectly placed for Proteas
Australia's greatest Test run-scorer says he is refreshed mentally and physically primed for the Test series against world number one South Africa starting next month.
Ricky Ponting did not pick up a bat for almost four months following his last Test, in the West Indies last April.
The 37-year-old then underwent a gruelling training regime to prepare for the three-Test series against the Proteas.
"You're not in the gym at 6am every morning in the middle of winter without a big clear picture in mind.
"And that to me was to be in the best physical shape and mental shape for the start of the season," said Ponting on Thursday, a day after hammering seven sixes in an unbeaten 85 in Tasmania's first innings against South Australia at Adelaide Oval.
"I have got myself in a good state now, and feeling good about everything, so I am right where I want to be."
Ponting said it was "weird" having a winter off, given he's not in the national one-day or Twenty20 outfits.
"I made the most of the break for the first couple of months," he said.
"I gave my body and mind a bit of a rest because I bashed myself up pretty much during the summer last year.
"I trained incredibly hard to get my game back and finished off the season really well.
"So after the West Indies I had a couple of months off with nothing and then about 12 weeks where I just trained myself into the ground really, physically.
"I got myself in good physical shape. I'm a few kilos down again at the start of the season and feeling really good and feel like I'm moving really good."
Ponting said he knew what would be coming from the South Africans.
"They're the number one team in the world and they are that for a reason," he said.
"They have got probably the best fast bowling attack going around ... they bat really low as well ... they're an exceptionally well-balanced side.
"But saying that, we have had some great contests against them since I have been playing for Australia.
"They have never really dominated us and the series have been great contests.
"We know that if we do everything as well as we can in Australia this year, they will find it hard to beat us."

Levi Leipheimer's Exit Puts Astana In TroubleJuly 18th, 2009 - 6:47 pm ICT by GD
According to the major cyclists, Levi Leipheimer's loss due to a broken bone in his right wrist has leveled the playing field significantly in the Tour de France 2009. Prior to Leipheimer's injury concern, his team Astana was one of the best teams in cycling. Now, it's barely a good team, leave alone the term "greatest".
According to the sources most assume that Leipheimer's departure due to the injury during the first of the race's defining mountain stages had hurt his fellow side kick Lance Armstrong more than it damaged Alberto Contador. Even Contador termed Leipheimer's sudden departure from this year's Tour de France as "a very serious blow". Apparently, earlier it seemed that Leipheimer had suffered only a strained list, before it was reported that he had been carrying a broken bone.
"Not only because in the mountains he is very good. Levi is also very good in the descents. We really missed him today as he is one of the best descenders. He's very good at guiding us down the mountain in a safe way," said Contador who maintained a two second lead over Lance Armstrong.
The 35 year old cyclist was just 39 seconds behind race leader, Rinaldo Niconteni and was placed in the fourth spot in the three week race which is heading towards its final week. "The pain in the wrist is one thing but seeing you guys roll off without me is immeasurable," said Leipheimer in a video posted in his Twitter account. Astana team manager John Bruyneel had reportedly said that Leipheimer "could have potentially won the tour". The departure of Leipheimer leaves his team Astana in deep trouble, while the race advances to its crucial stages.

ORLANDO, Fla. – Adam Scott matched the Bay Hill course record with a 10-under 62 Thursday at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. Here's the skinny on Round 1:
The leaderboard: Adam Scott (-10); Ryo Ishikawa and John Merrick (-7); Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano (-6)
What it means: Scott will ascend to world No. 1 (before the Masters) with a victory at Arnie's Place, and he's off to an auspicious start with a two-eagle, seven-birdie performance. The world No. 2 hasn't played here since 2009, when he missed the cut, but he seemed to remember the course just fine on Day 1.
Round of the day: Starting on the back nine, Scott eagled the par-5 16th and par-4 fifth en route to his best round of the year. It also matched his lowest score ever on the PGA Tour. The last time he opened with 62, at the 2011 Bridgestone, he eventually won by four.
Best of the rest: Ryo Ishikawa put himself in contention for his first career PGA Tour title with a smooth 65, the same number recorded by John Merrick, the 2013 Northern Trust winner. Brandt Snedeker, who hasn't cracked the top 40 in any full-field stroke-play event this season, shot his best round of the year with a 67.
Biggest disappointment: Bubba Watson took an 11 on the par-5 sixth on his way to an 83 on Day 1. Afterward, he withdrew from the tournament, citing allergies.
Biggest storyline heading into Friday: Can Scott keep it going? Forget the prospect of becoming No. 1 for the first time in his career. This is his final start before his title defense at the Masters, which is motivation enough.

Roberto Mancini, the Manchester City manager, has said he is relaxed about David Silva's slow start to life in the Premier League and blamed it, in part, on the player's international commitments with Spain.
Silva has been on the substitutes' bench for City's last three league games, starting only the Europa League qualifying ties against Timisoara and the opening match of the season at Tottenham Hotspur. It follows a bittersweet World Cup for the 23-year-old, when the joy of being part of the victorious squad was tempered by losing his place after their opening group game, the 1-0 defeat to Switzerland, and not playing any part in the final.
The impressive form of James Milner and Adam Johnson, playing in the wide attacking positions, has left Silva on the edges so far, but Mancini said it was inevitable the £25m signing from Valencia would need time to settle in to his new club.
"The thing with Silva is that we have been able to work with him only a couple of days at a time since he arrived. He had just signed for us when he went off with his national team to play in Mexico [during the August international break]. Then he came back and very quickly was off again with the national team again, this time to play in Argentina – another long trip.
"I thought he did very well when he came on [Silva was an 85th-minute substitute in the 1-1 draw against Blackburn Rovers on Saturday] but I always said that he would need time because it is very different here than playing in Spain. The internationals are over now and I think it will be time for him to play in the team from the next game."
That will come against Red Bull Salzburg on Thursday, in the first match of City's Europa League group. Mancini hopes to have three of his injured players – Wayne Bridge, Emmanuel Adebayor and Nigel de Jong – available for the trip to Austria, with a more realistic target for Jérôme Boateng being the game at Wigan Athletic on Saturday, but he will resist the temptation to hand Shay Given his first appearance for the club this season.
Mancini had promised Given there would be an opportunity to play in cup ties when he persuaded the Republic of Ireland international not to leave in the wake of losing his place to Joe Hart. For now, however, Given has been told he must be patient. "We are involved in four competitions and I'm sure Shay will play in Europe at some point but I will continue to play Joe on Thursday," Mancini said. "It is a difficult decision for me because, as I keep saying, Shay is a strong goalkeeper but at the moment this is my choice."
That will reassure Hart following the mix-up with Kolo Touré that led to Nikola Kalinic opening the scoring for Blackburn on Saturday. "I haven't said anything to him about it," Mancini said. "Joe called for the ball and that's why Kolo didn't play it. It was a gift for Blackburn but this hasn't changed my belief in him. Joe is a good goalkeeper but this sort of thing can happen. He's still young and he is strong enough mentally not to let it bother him."Ends

There is no intention of ever reviving it and any thing that happens to have worked since then have been only luck. Surely they are completely broken now with 10.8 as we have heard recent reports to that on the list. I filed https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5565 to have network server reject all non-Derby clients to make this more clear and avoid further confusion and people going down this dead end path. As for other ODBC solutions for Derby I don't know. If there is a good ODBC to JDBC bridge then maybe that would work with embedded too which would be ideal. There is one listed on the UsesOfDerby page at http://wiki.apache.org/db-derby/UsesOfDerby under ODBC Drivers. I removed the DRDA ones that don't claim any support of Derby. Sorry I don't have better news. Kathey

The Play
(Survey of Dramatic Literature)
The play opens in the comfortable apartment of Chandebise and his wife, Raymonde. Two servants, Étienne and his wife, Antoinette, and Chandebise's nephew, Camille, live with them. Because Camille has a cleft palate, he can pronounce only vowels; household members sometimes understand him, but others cannot.
Raymonde suspects that Chandebise is having an affair: The title of the play derives from her nagging suspicions. He has not been ardent recently, and a pair of suspenders has been sent to him from Hôtel Minet-Galant (the gallant pussycat hotel), a meeting place for adulterers. Even though she is considering having an affair with Tournel, Raymonde is outraged. The audience soon learns she is wrong. Chandebise is temporarily impotent; the suspenders were left at the hotel by Camille when he went there with Antoinette.
Raymonde devises a plot to trap her husband. She will send him a letter from an unknown admirer inviting him to meet her at the hotel. Because Chandebise would recognize her handwriting, Raymonde gets Lucienne to write the letter. Chandebise is flattered by the letter, but because he is a faithful husband, he forwards the assignation to Tournel. When Lucienne's husband, the fierce South American Don Carlos Homénidès de Histangua, sees the letter, he recognizes his wife's handwriting, goes berserk, threatens to shoot everyone, and leaves for the hotel. Camille attempts to warn Tournel but cannot find an artificial palate that makes him understandable. After Tournel leaves, Camille finds the device, inserts it, and speaks comprehensibly.
The second act takes place in the Hôtel Minet-Galant's central hall. The hotel has several staircases and doors leading to many bedrooms, the most visible of which has a special bed. When a button is pushed, the bed and the wall behind it revolve, and an identical bed appears. If a jealous spouse arrives, the lovers need only push a button and their bed is replaced by another bed containing someone else.
Many "Chandebises" appear throughout the act: Camille (whose family name is...

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - Katie Douglas scored a season-high 29 points to lead the Indiana Fever to an 86-72 victory over the Atlanta Dream on Saturday night.
Tamika Catchings had 17 points and nine rebounds to help the Fever (12-7) win for the second time in three days since the WNBA resumed play following the monthlong Olympic break. Briann January added 13 points and Shavonte Zellous 11.
Douglas shot 11 for 17 from the field, including 7 for 9 from beyond the arc - tying her career high and the franchise record for 3-pointers made.
``It's about time,' Douglas said. ``It's a good feeling. This morning I definitely wasn't shooting it well. But definitely in warmups, I felt really, really good. Really loose. ... My teammates just found a way to get me the ball and I was able to step up and knock down shots. And that's my role.'
Douglas, who had the previous team record of six 3s, scored 15 points in the first half to help the Fever take a 46-33 lead at halftime.
``Katie was hot,' Fever coach Lin Dunn. ``We started calling her number and calling any plays we could think of to get her threes.'
Angel McCoughtry scored 22 points on 8-for-19 shooting to lead the Dream (10-11). Rookie guard Tiffany Hayes had 13 points and Lindsey Harding added 12.
``The Fever have a tough offense and (Douglas) shot really well against us,' Dream coach Marynell Meadors said. ``We just weren't very strong mentally tonight.'
McCoughtry added, ``We just came out flat.'
McCoughtry had four points on 2-for-7 shooting in the first half.
``They were a hard 22 points,' Dunn said. ``Nothing came easy for her. ... That's about the best we can do with her. She's just that good.'
Fever forward Shavonte Zellous added, ``My goal was to limit Angel's touches tonight. She got off at the end a little bit.'
Zellous admitted she was pumped up for the game a little more than usual.
``The last two years Atlanta knocked us out the playoffs,' she said. ``We kind of have a thing against them.'
The Fever jumped out to a 20-7 lead with a 13-3 run in the first quarter. Douglas made three jumpers to put the Dream in a hole that it never recovered from. The Dream shot 22.2 percent from the field in the opening 10 minutes and the Fever never trailed.
The Fever made 12 or more 3s for the fifth time this season after accomplishing the feat just three times in the franchise's previous 12 years.
Catchings' five assists moved her to eighth on the WNBA's all-time list with 1,207.

One of Japan's crippled nuclear reactors still has fatally high radiation levels and hardly any water to cool it, according to an internal examination Tuesday that renews doubts about the plant's stability.
A tool equipped with a tiny video camera, a thermometer, a dosimeter and a water gauge was used to assess damage inside the No. 2 reactor's containment chamber for the second time since the tsunami swept into the Fukushima Dai-ichi plant a year ago. The probe done in January failed to find the water surface and provided only images showing steam, unidentified parts and rusty metal surfaces scarred by exposure to radiation, heat and humidity.
The data collected from the probes showed the damage from the disaster was so severe, the plant operator will have to develop special equipment and technology to tolerate the harsh environment and decommission the plant, a process expected to last decades.
Tuesday's examination with an industrial endoscope detected radiation levels up to 10 times the fatal dose inside the chamber. Plant officials previously said more than half of melted fuel has breached the core and dropped to the floor of the primary containment vessel, some of it splashing against the wall or the floor.
Particles from melted fuel have probably sent radiation levels up to dangerously high 70 sieverts per hour inside the container, said Junichi Matsumoto, spokesman for Tokyo Electric Power Co.
"It's extremely high," he said, adding that an endoscope would last only 14 hours in that condition. "We have to develop equipment that can tolerate high radiation" when locating and removing melted fuel during the decommissioning.
The probe also found the containment vessel — a beaker-shaped container enclosing the core — had cooling water up to only 60 centimeters (2 feet) from the bottom, far below the 10 meters (yards) estimated when the government declared the plant stable in December.
Finding the water level was important to help locate damaged areas where radioactive water is escaping.
He said that the actual water level inside the chamber was way off the estimate, which had used data that turned out to be unreliable. But the results don't affect the plant's "cold shutdown status" because the water temperature was about 50 degrees Celsius (122 Fahrenheit), indicating the melted fuel is cooled.
Three Dai-ichi reactors had meltdowns, but the No. 2 reactor is the only one that has been examined because radiation levels inside the reactor building are relatively low and its container is designed with a convenient slot to send in the endoscope.
The exact conditions of the other two reactors, where hydrogen explosions damaged their buildings, are still unknown. Simulations have indicated that more fuel inside No. 1 has breached the core than the other two, but radiation at No. 3 remains the highest.
The high radiation levels inside the No. 2 reactor's chamber mean it's inaccessible to the workers, but parts of the reactor building are accessible for a few minutes at a time — with the workers wearing full protection.

April 9, 2002
Two years old
Solomon Island Ecelctus
Clifton Park, New York, USA
n October of 1999, I lost a very dear part of my life. I lost my female Solomon Island Eclectus, her name was Lucy. I lost her due to complications of being egg bound; I lost her on the operating table. It really devastated me and I did not think that I wanted another bird yet. But I also have a Congo African Grey and just a couple of days after Lucy left us, Scarlett started saying, "Up Lucy, up Lucy" and was showing signs of being lonesome. I love the Eclectus species, but also felt that I would never want to lose another love do to egg binding. Not that it would happen again, but I did not want to personally deal with it. So I thought that a male would be nice.
Not knowing on where to find one, I researched Bird Talk Magazine for breeders. I found some in this area and Barbara Jones, down in Florida. I live just 15 miles North of Albany, New York. I contacted Gulf Coast Exotic Birds and talked to Barbara. I told her what had happened with my female and my thoughts on getting a male. She did have some males that would be ready to go in a couple of weeks. But she recommended one in particular very highly. He was very social and had no problems with coming up on a persons' hand. Barbara socializes with all of her birds and I do believe that everyone there associates with them also. What also made my decision easy was I have a friend through a bird chat program that lives in the same area as Gulf Coast Exotic Birds. Talking with her, she volunteered to go over and visit with Barbara, take a look at the bird that I would be getting and just take an over all look at her breeding facilities. When Pam got back to me, she could not speak highly enough of Barbara, her birdies, and her facilities. She stated that she had not seen such a nice breeding facility, the place was very clean and the birds were very lovely and well cared for. She also stated that Barbara was a very caring person and loved her birds. Also another point that I would like to make is that until I received my new little person, Barbara would E-mail me pictures of my new birdie so that I knew exactly what he looked like, well before I first laid eyes on him.
I was also concerned about shipping. Being a corporate pilot, I was looking to see if we had any trips down to Florida so that I could personally pick up Desmo, but we did not. So, I decided on air shipment. When you consider the purchase of a bird from a breeder plus the shipping, it will still come out about the same as purchasing a bird from a store, or perhaps, even less expensive.
Since Desmo has joined out little family, he has become a very important part of it. He is such a sweet bird. He loves to be on the windowsill, watching whatever is going on outside and looking at the trees. He is a very beautiful bird. His feathers are so shiny and pretty. But that is also probably due to his diet. He eats like a little piggy. He eats everything I give him. It is such a delight to see him so happy and eating all the time. I do recommend getting your bird or birds from Barbara. Very highly!
Lately Desmo has taken to following my Congo African Grey around my home. It's so cute to watch them walking around, seeing what kind of trouble they can get into. Probably just to make me upset and make me act like the loving parent that I am. Whenever they are walking around together, I say, "Well there goes the Two Walk About Buddies!!"
Desmo is a Male Solomon Island Ecelctus and will be three years old this coming July. Scarlett is my Congo Grey and he, even though the name does not imply,
will be five this coming July. Scarlett was named wrong at the store. I just do not have the heart to tell him about his name or change it!

Knoxville (WVLT) - Knox County authorities are investigating a meth lab on Chapman Highway in South Knox County.
Authorities say they saw a suspicious vehicle in a parking lot on Chapman Highway around 7:30 Monday evening.
The deputy came through to check and found 31-year-old Travis Sinclair of Sevierville slumped over in the car.
The deputy says Sinclair started talking to the deputy, and the deputy found an open container of beer in the car. The deputy then ran Sinclair's license number and found the man was driving on a suspended license.
After searching the car, we're told the deputy found materials to make a meth lab.
"It was a variety of things that he pulled out. All the makings that you would need for a meth lab, and this is considered a medium sized meth lab," Knox County spokeswoman Martha Dooley said.
Authorities tell us there was no immediate danger to the public.
Sinclair is facing meth charges.

Cash is still king: Those looking to remodel get a deal
"[Darien} Destino and her husband, Don, recently had their 3,000-square-foot home painted by the same contractor who bid 40 percent more for the job two years ago. The pine trees crowding the front yard were removed for half the cost requested in 2007."
By waiting two years, they got both projects done for 40-50% less than the cost they were originally quoted.
Plus, if a contractor has already done an estimate on your place, it's easier for them to assess what the job is worth to them in terms of keeping their workers busy, cash flow, etc. If you have an old quote, you may want to call that contractor back and see if they are willing to do the same job for less.
Also, Ms. Destino says that the contractors were very punctual, showing up on site to do the job the day after the quote, so obviously the work is getting done more quickly because there is less work to go around.
"There're a lot of hungry contractors out there," says Mark Scott, owner of Mark IV Builders in Bethesda, Md.
Scott estimates remodeling costs in his region are down 15% from two years ago. He's laid off 16 of 26 people.
Nationwide, the home improvement market is expected to shrink 12% this year to $217 billion for owner-occupied properties. That's after a 10% decline last year, says Harvard University's Joint Center for Housing Studies.

Two of our restaurants top the list of the six best-looking restaurants in San Diego!
When the owners of this Beverly Hills home came to Schoos, they had a complete set of plans for a large Mediterranean villa that was ready for building. The only problem was that they didn't like the design anymore. It was too similar to any number of Spanish or Mediterranean homes in the area and they wanted something different. However, they also did not want to waste all the effort spent creating the plans.
Our solution was to retain as much of the basic structure as possible while reinterpreting the design in a more contemporary way, creating a transitional style between Mediterranean and eclectic modern. Heavy, stereotypically Mediterranean elements such as arches and wrought iron grill work were removed and replaced by square doors and windows and custom designed railings. As seen in these drawings, the more squared-off design also allows more light and better sight lines by creating larger openings for doors and windows.
The photo on the left shows the bare bones of the structure in progress. In the photo on the right, one can see the benefit of clean, refined lines, added water features and landscaping in bringing the home to life.
Instead of an imposing, dark archway, the new door maximizes the open space while also adding a touch of elegance with the bronze and brass elements. One can also see the interior foyer courtyard which creates an inviting indoor/outdoor space.
These specifications and photos show the streamlined designs for balcony railings and stair bannisters which capture simiplicity and elegance. The design maintains the functional needs of the basic structure while providing an alternative to the ornate Spanish wrought-iron look.
The plans also called for this large, open interior foyer with a stairwell and skylight. The challenge of this space was to find a way of bringing an organic, personal touch to the cavernous area, fill acres of white wall space, and make the room feel more like a personal, unique home.
The innovative solution was to create original artwork that would draw the space together and turn a large white box into an elegant garden. The design would be rich and florid but with a white-on-white color scheme that would keep the effect subtle. Here we can see how the design began with a free-hand sketch drawn directly onto the walls using different colors to keep the design clear.
Next, the design was traced from the walls onto wax paper (the photo at left). This tracing was used as a pattern to carve a 3-D design into styrofoam off-site. The styrofoam carving was then carefully reapplied to the walls in sections (the photo at right) where more details were added and refined.
After this, plaster was applied over the whole artwork. It was allowed to dry, was meticulously sanded, and then even more detail and refinement were added. (The fireplace at right is in the same room, directly opposite the stairway.)
This close-up shows some of the detail being added.
The finished sculpture was then given a paint-grade finish for a seamless effect. When combined with the cascading chandelier, the room adds drama and individuality to this central room, taking the home from conventional to striking.

The control tower at Tacoma Narrows Airport near Gig Harbor might close due to Federal Aviation Administration budget cuts caused by sequestration.
The FAA is reviewing its list of tower closures and could reconsider those "where the national interest would be adversely affected." A final decision is due by March 18.
If its tower closes, Tacoma Narrows Airport would remain open with pilots using "well-defined procedures applicable at all airports without an operating control tower," according to Pierce County.
Here's today's news release from Pierce County:
Sequestration may close FAA contract control tower at Tacoma Narrows Airport
The Federal Aviation Administration's contract control tower at the Tacoma Narrows Airport in Gig Harbor may close as the FAA implements the budget sequestration. This proposed tower closure is one of many that could occur at airports around the country.
"Between now and March 13, 2013, the FAA is reviewing its list of locations where it plans to discontinue air traffic control services to identify locations where the national interest would be adversely affected by tower closure," according to a March 5 letter from the FAA to Pierce County, which operates the airport.
The FAA will consider information until March 13 on how these proposed tower closures would negatively impact the national interest. Submissions may be sent to ATO-Terminal Services at firstname.lastname@example.com or by fax to (202) 493-4565. The FAA plans to finalize its list of facility closures by March 18.
The letter adds that while the timing of this action is driven by sequestration, similar reductions may be needed in the future due to budget pressure.
Tacoma Narrows Airport will remain open if the FAA contract tower closes. Instead of having tower controllers directing air traffic, pilots would use well-defined procedures applicable at all airports without an operating control tower. These standard procedures are already in use between 8 p.m. and 8 a.m. at the Tacoma Narrows Airport, and 24-hours a day at Pierce County Airport-Thun Field, which is also operated by Pierce County and has never had a control tower.
"We value having the FAA's contract tower onsite for our pilots, and hope that it continues this important operation," said Deb Wallace, Pierce County Public Works and Utilities airport and ferry administrator. "The decision to close the tower is not yet final, and Pierce County will advocate for the tower to remain open."

text: perlquestion jefferis <p>I am using File::Find to process a directory hierarchy. Some of the files are symlinks that I must follow. What I want to do is randomise the processing order of the files, something like this: </p> <code> use File::Find; use List::Util 'shuffle'; my $somedir = "."; sub handlefind {print $_,"\n";} find({ wanted => \&handlefind, preprocess=>\&shuffle,follow=>1 }, $somedir); </code> <p> However, preprocess is a noop when follow symlinks is on. Could anyone suggest an alternative approach to meet my goal. Thank you very much for your help, </p> <p> Greg. </p> (first time poster) <p> PS if you are curious, this is part of perl script that is run > 100x on a cluster to process 1000s of 3d brain images. I use simple file locks to make sure that only one job is running on any image. Unfortunately file locking on NFS is not very reliable (and I am already taking precautions). What happens is that if I start 100x jobs at once everyone tries to grab the same file and it's a mess. So I want to scramble the processing order of files to reduce the number of possible collisions to put less pressure on the file locking mechanism. </p>

Curating content allows publishers to build a blog empire while remaining on Google's good side.
Phoenix, AZ (PRWEB) June 12, 2012
Page One Curator review just went live on MayDayReport.com and takes a close look into the most popular content curation tool on the market today.
Content curation is being employed by a growing number of web publishers who want to improve search engine results using high-quality, authoritative content while abandoning the murky SEO practices that left thousands of websites on Google's hit list after the Penguin update.
Google and content curators have one thing in common: they both want to make more money by offering the Googling masses something new: the information they were actually looking for in the first place.
People can see the official website by going to
"It's hard to find a content guru out there who isn't singing the praises of curating content," said a spokesperson for MayDayReport.com. "We wanted to take a close look at the most popular tool on the market to determine how it is helping publishers increase traffic and revenue."
For many, the latest trend in improving SEO is doing exactly what Google wants, but in an efficient, streamlined and profitable way. The makers of Page One Curator say curating content can be enormously profitable, as long as publishers have the right time-saving tools to get the job done.
The latest Page One Curator review covers the various features, including added SEO tools to help bring more traffic and select the most effective keywords.
It also covers the all important curation features, such as an easy in-dash search feature that makes it easy to pick the highest-quality, most relevant content from hundreds of thousands of options.
"Any tool that can help drastically cut down the time spent searching for text, photos, video and social posts is worth looking into," MayDayReport.com spokesperson said. "Especially one that can do all of that and publish right to your Wordpress site."

The King's Speech is going to sound a bit different come April 1. The Weinstein Company is replacing the R-rated version with a PG-13 version that will hit 1,000 screens. The Oscar-winning movie that gave Colin Firth an Academy Award for Best Actor was originally given the higher rating due to language, which the new version will omit. In essence, the "F" bombs will no longer exist.
The Weinstein Company's decision to release the new PG-13 version was strictly to widen their audience in hopes of picking up the revenue the R-rated version left behind. Normally there would be a 90-day waiting period between the time of the pull and the new release, but with new waivers in place that didn't exist in the past, the process was expedited. The King's Speech will mark the first time the waiver has been used.
"We are thankful to the MPAA for their wisdom and swift action in approving the release of The King's Speech PG-13 version," Eric Lomis, president of the Weinstein Company's theatrical distribution and home entertainment department, said.
The King's Speech is not only an Oscar-winning movie, it's box-office gold. The film grossed $132.7 million in the U.S. and $226 million overseas, making it one of the most successful independent films of all time.
Will you be taking in the PG-13 version of The King's Speech to see Colin Firth at his Oscar best or do you prefer the movie with a few scandalous words? Seeing Colin Firth again makes the trip to the theater all the more enjoyable!

Sport-Bild reports that former Inter coach Jose Mourinho first attempted to lure Ozil to Serie A in 2009, but a transfer never materialised. The Nerazzurri again made a move for the former Werder Bremen star one year later and were willing to pay €25 million for the attacking midfielder.
However, Ozil had set his sights on a switch to Madrid and he completed the transfer for a fee in the region of €15m to join up with Mourinho in the Spanish capital.
"It is true that in 2010 I had offers from some top European clubs. This included Inter. But the decision to go to Real was absolutely right. It's the best club in the world, and I would like to end my career here," Ozil told Sport-Bild.
"I am only 23 years old, I will not reach my peak for a long time. I'll become even better. I am concentrating fully on Madrid and the national team, because we can make history this year.
"We [Real] can win La Liga and the Champions League, and in the summer the European Championship with Germany."
The Madrid star then went on to discuss the performances of Barcelona forward Lionel Messi, and had nothing but praise for the Argentine.
"It was impressive to see how Messi played against Leverkusen. Of course he is top class, as are many other players from Barcelona.
"But we have grown together as a team, which can be seen in La Liga. We are leading the table."
Madrid currently hold a six-point lead over Barcelona in the Liga table.
