Lelah Dushkin
Lelah Dushkin has led an exciting life. One look around her warm home right across the street from the Kansas State University campus tells you that instantly. During her years as a sociologist at KSU specializing in teaching South Asia studies, she was immersed in her field of study. Her home is filled with exotic and rare memories of her travels to India and other faraway destinations most of us only dream about. Artwork, crafts and even yak bone jewelry greet visitors with that hint of mystery. Lelah shares her home with two cats, and a dog.
Lelah's early years were just as exciting growing up in a unique music school in a suburb of Chicago, founded by her father, David. Known at the time locally as the Dushkin School, it is now known at the Music Institute of Chicago. Lelah's early love of music has continued throughout her life, sharing space with her love of the East.
Lelah Dushkin has been a strong supporter of Radio Kansas for many, many years. But unlike most folks, she's taken a step further. Lelah has included Radio Kansas in her will. Through a living trust, she has designated Radio Kansas as a beneficiary. This means her support for the programming she has always loved will continue forever. Lelah says, "When we listen several hours a day as I do, we should support it. Who will if we don't? I want to make sure that classical music and news continues to be broadcast." According to Lelah, "I can't take it with me, so I might as well leave it to Radio Kansas."

The 20-year-old Serb overcame a slow start to beat Spanish 15th seed Ferrer 6-4 6-4 6-3 and set up a final against Roger Federer or Nikolay Davydenko.
Ferrer made the better start with an early break but Djokovic won five straight games to take the first set.
And despite struggling in the fierce heat, the Serb broke twice in the second and third sets to seal victory.
"I started really nervous," said Djokovic, who is the first Serbian man to reach a Grand Slam final.
"I had played a lot of difficult matches and I didn't have a lot of energy. And he is a tough competitor.
"Plus the conditions were extreme. It was so hot."
Asked how he coped, the Serb joked: "I asked for some pills - but everything was permitted!"
Ferrer, playing in his first Grand Slam semi-final, broke serve immediately and raced 4-1 clear as Djokovic struggled with his forehand.
But once he found that shot the match turned completely as the world number three broke back to love and stormed through the rest of the set.
Ann immediate break at the start of the second suggested a straightforward win was on the cards, but Djokovic called for the trainer and the doctor after game three as the heat took its toll.
He took a couple of pills and donned a cap, but Ferrer still took advantage by breaking back and the match appeared to be back on.
Djokovic had other ideas though, playing a superb game at 3-3 to fight back from 40-0 down and break again.
That was enough for the second set and the Serb dominated the third with two more breaks, despite calling for the doctor once again.
"I will try to recover as much as I can and rest," said Djokovic. "I am going to watch my opponents play.
"It will be an amazing experience for my first Grand Slam final. It's a great achievement for me and for my country."
What are these?

God's Law Prevails
Friend, God is Pure Law. All He does is Pure. He makes no mistakes.
He is above all things and over all things and in all things.
Nothing exists without His knowledge because He is the Creator of all things.
Everything is governed by Him and His Law prevails throughout all creation.
He wants us to recognize this. He has given us the free will to look around and recognize His Majesty and Truth that is always Good.
Within us He has placed the desire to know Him, because He desires to have a personal relationship with each of us. He wants the fellowship and love that we can give back to Him. He created everything for His Pleasure.
Until the day we die we should be seeking Him and His Will. Even finding Him in the form of Jesus still requires us to grow in the knowledge of Godly Ways so that we can grow ever closer to Him. Our journey should be continual, searching, seeking, growing in Godly Knowledge.
It does not end when we find that Jesus died for our sins and has made a Way for us. We must step on the Path and begin to explore Holiness with the help and guidance of the Holy Spirit. Christianity is not supposed to be a stagnant religion.
Jesus is alive and so must we be.

2017 Oscars: A Tale of Two Oscar Stories and One Very Big Gaffe
A final shocker wasn't the only surprise at this year's Academy Awards.
A final shocker wasn't the only surprise at this year's Academy Awards.
Denzel Washington talks about the cinematic challenges of adapting August Wilson's Pulitzer Prize-winning play.
No question, momentum is building for escapist musical "La La Land."
A former professional baseball player creates tension in his family when he denies his teenage son's dream of playing college football and comes home with the baby he had through an affair.
Washington doesn't try to improve upon August Wilson's Pulitzer Prize-winning masterpiece, but he brings it to the screen with integrity (and a handful of incredible performances).
Eight movies with diverse casts and crews are vying for Oscar inclusion this year, and they're sure to upset the status quo.
"Suicide Squad" promises to flip the script on superhero movies by forcing the audience to root for the bad guys. But that isn't enough.
A secret government agency led by Amanda Waller recruits imprisoned supervillains to execute dangerous black ops missions in exchange for clemency and saving the world from an unknown but powerful threat.
Based off the novel by Jonathan Safran Foer, a 9-11-themed book that centers on Oskar Schell, an ambitious young nine-year-old who scours New York City in search of a lock that a key his father left him will open. The boy's father died in the 9-11 attacks and Oskar was also said to be an amateur inventor, jewelry designer, astrophysicist, tambourine player and pacifist at such a young age. [Synopsis courtesy of AceShowbiz]
Ethan Wate just wants to get to know Lena Duchannes better, but unbeknownst to him, Lena has strange powers. As Lena's 16th birthday approaches she might decide her fate, to be good or evil. A choice which will impact her relationship forever.
Aibileen Clark (Viola Davis) is a middle-aged African-American maid who has spent her life raising white children and has recently lost her only son; Minny Jackson (Octavia Spencer) is an African-American maid who has often offended her employers despite her family's struggles with money and her desperate need for jobs; and Eugenia "Skeeter" Phelan (Emma Stone) is a young white woman who has recently moved back home after graduating college to find out her childhood maid has mysteriously disappeared. These three stories intertwine to explain how life in Jackson, Mississippi revolves around "the help"; yet they are always kept at a certain distance because of racial lines.
Two determined mothers, one a teacher, look to transform their children's failing inner city school. Facing a powerful and entrenched bureaucracy, they risk everything to make a difference in the education and future of their children

Break though at lithium batteries - longer service life - lower production costs
Just got to publish a break though in lithium battery technology
Ober 30 years of service life,
Electrolyte is exchangeable.
BMS gives maybe every 10 years a message: please exchange the electrolyte.
Extrem fast charging possible
A car with the new batteries will be shown at the
5th International Symposium of Large Ion Battery Technology and Application (LLIBTA; June 8 - 10, 2009; Long Beach, California). .
Normal car converted - 500km - 5 minute to recharge
70 kWh batteries.
Very interesting. Does this apply to all chemistries? e.g. LiFePO4 and LiPo? Do you know anything about the plans to bring this technology to market?
AFAIK this includes LiFePO4 and LiPO. Now there is the patent application, next step is to have some investors.
I have seen November 2008 a prototype cell at the EUROSOLAR storage conference in Berlin.
The outer shape looks like Kokam, because this prototype was built by Kokam.

The star of David store offer you the widest choice of star of David jewelry for children, women and men. We have a Star of David jewel for every budget and for every occasion: bar mitzav, bat mitzva, wedding and anniversary.
With the largest choice of star of David necklaces, star of David pendants, star of David earrings, star of David rings and star of David bracelets, we are sure that you will find the special star of David jewel that you are looking for.
Star of David Meaning
The shape of the star of David is an example of ' hexagram , a symbol also significant for other religions than judaism. The hexagram is to be dated before the use of the Jews. Outside the Jewish system is mainly used in the occult, it is an ancient symbol found on ancient temples Indians built thousands of years ago. Symbolized the Nara-Narayana , or perfect meditative balance between Man and God, and, if maintained, would bring in " Moksha , "or" Nirvana "(liberation from the limits of the world and its Terrenal materialistic traps) .
Another theory on the form origin is to be found only in 2 of the 3 Hebrew letters of the name David. David in the Hebrew script is written with only 3 characters, two of which are the "D" (or "Daleth" in Hebrew). In ancient times, this letter was written in a way very similar to a triangle, more or less like the Greek letter "Delta" with which it shares the same sound and the position (fourth) in their respective alphabets, as well as the D in Italian and in other Western alphabets. The symbol could be a simple family crest formed by overlapping and reversing the two most important letters of the name of the founder.
Some researchers have even theorized that the Star of David represents the situation in the astral at the time of the birth of David or of his coronation as king. The star of David is also known as the Star of the King in astrological circles, and was also an astrological symbol in Zoroastrianism . In ancient papyri , the staves , along with stars and other symbols, was often found on amulets with the Hebrew name of God , and was used to protect against fever and other diseases. Oddly enough, it was the hexagram of these amulets. In Great magical papyrus at Paris and in London we can find 22 symbols on each side and a circle with twelve symbols, but are not available staves or hexagrams. The "Practical" Kabbalah makes use of this symbol by ordering the ten Sephiroth , and placing it on amulets. However, the symbol is not on the classic Kabbalistic texts such as the Zohar , the writings of Rabbi Isaac Luria and other similar language. Therefore we can say that this use, in the diagram sephirotic , is nothing more than a reinterpretation of existing magic symbols.
Popular etymology would be that the Star of David was literally taken from the shield of the young warrior David (who would later become King David). To save metal, the shield would be made with a metal cross two triangles with a leather cover. Obviously there is no clear historical evidence of the accuracy of this folk etymology, although we can definitely say that it is the result of inventive genius. The traditional interpretation sees a triangle "watery" and "female" with the apex pointing up and a "fiery" and "masculine" with the apex pointing down. In a second time, overcome this dualism, the cosmology began to speak of the four elements making up the universe. The triangle with the apex pointing upwards' s "air" and with the top down on the "earth."
Another jewel shape with a meaning is a heart jewelry. It always means love. When somebody offer a heart jewel to someone else it is for expressing his love to this person.

Golf - 37th Spring Cup at Villarceaux
The 37th edition of the Spring Cup was held at Villarceaux on Saturday, May 13th where some 70+ players competed in typical Spring weather (some sun, some wind, some cloud but NO rain). The conditions seemed to favour the men who, overall, played better than the ladies.
The Castrol Cup (men's gross) was won by Patrice Guiader with 27 points. The ladies' gross cup – the Financial Times Spring Cup – was won by his wife, Karine who also scored 27 points.
The net Spring Cups were won by Véronique Guermonprez and Roland Leguené with 37 and 40 points respectively. Roland also won the Men's longest drive. Solena Person won the Ladies' longest drive.
Due to a mix up at the secretariat the "Nearest the Pin" competition was a mixed event instead of the usual Men's and Ladies' individual event. This very first (and last) version of the event was won by Claude Jacques.
Standard Athletic Club players seemed to perform better in the lucky dip than on the golf course. This said, there were good performances from John McCallum (36 points) and Jeanne Delacroix (35 points). Emmanuel Vergé and Muriel Jones were also mentioned in dispatches.

My Fave Vegan Pancakes Recipe
❤1 Cup Flour
❤1/2 Cup Old Fashioned Oats
❤2 Tsp. Baking Powder
❤3 Tbsp. Natural/Raw Sugar
❤1/8 Tsp. Salt
❤1 Cup Almond/Soy Milk
❤1 Tbsp. Vegan Butter (Melted)
❤1-2 Tsp. Vanilla Extract
❤Chia Egg (3 Tbsp. Water + 1 Tbsp. Ground Chia Seeds)
❤About 1/2 Cup Blueberries
1. Mix all dry ingredients in a medium sized bowl.
2. In a small bowl, make the chia egg and set aside for a couple of minutes. It's important that you let it sit and thicken up before mixing it into the rest of the ingredients.
3. Add the milk, butter, vanilla, and "egg" to the bowl of dry ingredients.
4. Stir or whisk until everything is mixed in.(The batter will be lumpy because of the oats!)
5. Cook on low-medium heat.
6. Add toppings and enjoy! I added some blueberries and coconut chunks.
❤About 1/4 Cup Blueberries (I used the frozen wild boreal blueberries from Trader Joe's)
❤2 Tsp. Vegan Butter
❤2-4 Tsp. Raw Sugar
1. Heat a small saucepan on medium heat.
2. Add the butter and frozen blueberries.
3. Once the blueberries start to get soft, use a spoon to start mashing them. They don't have to all be mashed. I like to still have some full ones.
4. Add in the sugar.
5. Keep stirring for about 5-8 mins.
6. The blueberries should now have a good amount of juice or syrup. If not, try adding a bit more sugar.
7. While it's still hot, pour over your pancakes.
If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask!

Victorious Ashes hero Shane Watson has cheekily suggested security at Perth's Crown Casino was more secure than the defence of the English batsmen, after a rowdy night of celebration in Perth.
After reclaiming the Ashes urn, the Australian team embarked on a jubilant celebration starting at the WACA ground and continuing at the Crown Casino complex, courtesy of legendary leg spinner Shane Warne.
But not all was well, with fast bowler Ryan Harris voicing his displeasure at some of the staff at the Crown Casino via Twitter at around 0330 WST.
"A tip for all those heading to Perth! Avoid the crown or casino! S*** hole can't get in if you have had a drink #s***place#d***heads," Harris' tweet read before it was deleted.
WA all-rounder Nathan Coulter-Nile, who was on stand-by for the Test and also took part in the celebrations, also tweeted: "Crown casino wouldn't let the team that won the Ashes onto the premises because security were on a power trip. Worst place!."
Crown Casino declined to comment when contacted by AAP.
But Watson, whose blistering century in Perth was part of the famous win, attempted to dilute any lingering animosity by a gentle teasing of the vanquished English foes.
"Shane Warne was very kind to put on a party for us at the Crown Casino. It was a brilliant night to get everyone together," Watson said.
Watson said he had retired to bed before Harris' run-in with the security, but when asked whether they may have stood a bit firmer than the English replied: "Well I wasn't there for it, but maybe they did."
"Obviously things for a period of time might not have gone exactly right. But in the end we were just there to have a great time.
"There was no intention other than making the most of winning the Ashes back."
A croaky-voiced and sheepish Harris apologised on Wednesday afternoon when he arrived in Melbourne.
"Obviously I made a silly mistake this morning and I tweeted something I probably shouldn't have," he said.
"It was a silly thing to do – they let me in in the end, so they did the right thing.
"But they have to do their job and they were doing it.
"As I've heard many times before, don't tweet when you've had a drink."

The end of his career with the New York Police Department had been a quiet affair despite the public moment of stupidity that had led up to it. John had simply laid his badge and gun on Lieutenant Fancy's desk and walked out of the precinct.
Andy had tried to stop him. He tried to convince John that the younger man had encountered a small set back and that he would be there for John no matter what.
John had shaken his head. He loved Andy like a father, but he had made up his mind. He wouldn't let Borough Commander Haverill knock him back down to dispatch because the man had a hard on for Fancy and didn't like John's support of Janice during her murder trial.
He looked at Andy and said, "It's time to move on, time for me to quit living in my father's shadow. See you around, old man."
John had walked away knowing that he was lucky he wasn't facing charges for obstruction of justice, but he didn't see it that way. He felt like a failure, even though he had put a brave face on it for Andy.
The desire to start over fresh somewhere else had been so strong that he had almost caught a cab to La Guardia. Instead, he had gone home to his cold and empty apartment to consider his options realizing that he needed to find a place where no one had ever heard of the name John Kelly.

Senate rejects latest House GOP effort on budget
WASHINGTON — The Senate has voted to reject the latest House Republican effort to negotiate on the budget amid the government shutdown.
The party-line vote was 54-46 on Tuesday. The Senate turned aside a House request to name negotiators to a conference to resolve differences.
Majority Leader Harry Reid said he wouldn't negotiate as long as Republicans were holding up a straightforward spending bill to keep the government operating.

Valspar sees success responding to consumers in the retail channel

About Valspar Corporation
The Valspar Corporationis one of the largest manufacturers of paint and coatings. For over 200 years, the company has been providing coatings and coating intermediates to a wide variety of customers around the world.

Bazaarvoice gave Valspar an opportunity to spread its most engaged customers' feedback close to the point of sale.
Solution at a glance
Connect with shoppers on retail partner sites, where intent is the highest, to help guide purchase decisions and influence sales.
Use Bazaarvoice Connections to send content to retail partner sites and to respond to customer questions directly on the retail partner sites.
By having direct access to customers in the retail channel, Valspar was able to resolve issues, answer questions, build an authoritative brand image, and show end customers that the brand cares deeply about its customers' satisfaction.
Valspar has always been a customer-centric brand, dedicated to delivering the latest innovations, the finest quality, and the best customer service in the coatings industry. The company has shown that it listens to the consumer by adopting customer reviews on-site and maintaining an active presence on social channels.
While the company lists products and interacts with customers on its own site, its product lines are sold primarily through retailer partners. Because of this, Valspar faced a challenge shared by many manufacturers: it had limited access to potential customers where they are best equipped to convert – on the websites of Valspar's retail partners. Valspar sought to find a way to connect with shoppers on retail sites, where intent is the highest, to help guide purchase decisions and influence sales.
While Valspar had been a longtime user of Bazaarvoice Conversations to power customer reviews on its own site, it wasn't able to use this content to impact sales directly in the retail channel. With the Bazaarvoice syndication network, Valspar was able to syndicate its consumer content to to the website of one of its largest retail partners. The partnership provided the retailer with thousands of new Valspar product reviews on its product pages and gave Valspar an opportunity to spread its most engaged customers' feedback close to the point of sale.
With the success of sharing reviews between sites, a request came from the retail partner asking Valspar if it would be willing to use Bazaarvoice Connections to respond to customer questions about Valspar products carried on the retailer's .com site. Although it was clear to Jonathan Sullivan, Director of Digital Marketing at Valspar, that the Connections partnership could be hugely beneficial to both companies, he had concerns about the current team serving customers in a timely manner. With guidance from Bazaarvoice, a plan based on best practices was put into place to have the existing team answer questions on the retailer's site.
When the partnership was launched in February 2012, it was evident that it would be a win-win. Valspar was able to meaningfully engage with its end consumers at the point of sale, helping to provide that last bit of information needed to make a purchase decision, and the retail partner was able to bring a credible brand voice into its own site.
After launching Bazaarvoice Connections, Valspar was granted direct access to consumers on the channels where it does its primary business. By responding to customer questions and syndicating reviews, Valspar was able to resolve issues and answer questions, build an authoritative brand image, and show end customers that the brand cares deeply about its customers' satisfaction. Up to 95% of dissatisfied buyers will buy a brand again if a complaint is resolved quickly; without having to make any dramatic changes to the service team structure, Valspar was able to support a 12-hour turnaround time on all questions. In turn, these authentic answers from expert voices were able to influence a direct increase in sales on the company's products sold on the retail partner's site.
In addition, the experience of using Connections revealed to Valspar that it needed to more tightly integrate marketing and customer service at Valspar. Because customer service reps are responsible for upholding the brand's message and promise on consumer-facing channels, customer service became a function of marketing. All customer service reps now undergo "brand voice guidance" as part of their initial training. The company has also identified common consumer questions and concerns that help inform customer service protocol and messaging internally, and improve efficiency of customer service – wherever a shopper could be accessing the Valspar brand.
Finally, Connections has allowed Valspar to be a better supplier for its retail partners. For instance, when the company notices a question or comment time and time again on a given product, Valspar can identify opportunities to improve product descriptions and fill in information gaps. Also, if sales decline for a particular product online or in-store, Valspar is able to reference consumer content data to see if there is a common thread of complaints, or even an isolated period of complaints, that may point to a batch problem.
Partnering with Bazaarvoice and a key retail partner, Valspar was able to achieve its goals and connect with shoppers in more meaningful ways, where it matters most. Opening up the dialog with consumers allowed Valspar to improve organizational efficiency, support its brand promise by providing superior support to its customers when they need it most, and ultimately influence sales on a critical sales channel. In the coming months, Valspar plans to expand its Connections program by offering similar support and syndication to other key partners participating in the world's largest retail network.Download PDF »

Goat Milk nutrients provide people with very healthy and important Goat Milk Benefits. Goat's Milk don't need any homogenization like some of the cows do, because Goat Milk has natural, little and special fat globules that help the cream stay suspended in the milk and not rise to the top like the raw cow's milk does.

– Vitamin B2, Riboflavin (good amount)
– Vitamin B3, Niacin

– Copper
– Magnesium
– Manganese
– Selenium
– Sodium
– Zinc
– Omega 3 Fatty Acids

It's a Malibu Barbie world. Pointlessly gendered products are anything but rare. Pink razors, pink deodorant and pink tool kits abound. But even in the fuscia fantasyland of femininity cooked up by a notoriously male-dominated ad industry, some women-targeted products surpass credulity, diving headfirst into the surreal. These are the purest manifestations of the deranged and predatory marketing hive mind, in which women are walking piggybanks brimming with cash, insecurity and an insatiable hunger for all things pink. At the link below, check out 10 of the most absurd products marketed to women.

II like the red with black trim as well as all black like Walon Vau's Beskar but I also quite like the bronze colour that Kal Skirata has.
Thats true like in the Han Solo trilogy where he did a job in exchange for some wrist mounted dart shooters I think it was.
If I remember rightly its Jaster's armor and Jango's helmet or something like that according to the young Boba novels.
Thankyou Alo. I don't like the touchy,feely side of Boba that Traviss came up with either,
What next Boba baking Brownies with 'little' Kad'ika?
1. Gray=Mourning a Lost Love
2. Red=Honoring a Father
3. Black=Justice
4. Gold=Vengeance
5. Green=Duty
6. Blue=Reliability
7. Orange=A Lust for Life
I wasn't keen on on where she went with some of the characters either and True Colours was my least fave novel of the series but I loved Order 66 apart from how some things happened near the end of the book.
I can never make my mind up which I like best out of Hard Contact and Triple Zero as it seem's to depend on my mood but most of the time I would have to say TZ.
Boba has been one of my faves for years since well before the prequels or any of the young Boba stories came about.
I would even go as far as saying I think the prequels tainted the character as well as Vader and I like the prequels I just never liked the idea of Boba being a clone.
At this present moment in time althought the first three on this list has always been the same -
1.Han Solo
2.Boba Fett
3.Darth Vader
4.Jaster Mereel
5.Walon Vau
7.Plo Koon
8.Saesee Tiin
My fave faction would have to be the Mandalorians.
I liked the first part of Corrie and the Tatooine levels were pretty cool.
Karen Traviss has made a lot of changes to the Mando's and some of those changes I wasn't overly keen on to start with but at least we're seeing a lot more Mando stuff now.
I would like to see more stories of the Mando's from Jaster's era though as Jango Fett Open Seasons was my fave Mando story arc and probably always will be.
I would like to see stuff set prior to the events that took place at Galidraan.
Sorry I did mean trade paperback/graphic novel depending on what you want to call them.
I always used to call them graphic novels until I got online and people told me that a trade paperback and a graphic novel are different I can't remember the reason the gave the two are still the same thing to me.
Either a RC series done in the original style like you say and not something else for the kids to help promote the Clone Wars.
Even if they just adpated the four novels in graphic novel format it would be cool to see what everyone looks like or at least get an idea because everyone no doubt has their own images in their heads of the characters.
I finished reading Star Wars Republic Commando Order 66 recently and its by far my fave novel of the series and soon I'll be starting the Legacy novels at some point in the near future which I'm looking forward to as apparently they feature a lot of Mando stuff.
I don't know about anyone else but I would love to see the RC novels adapted to tpb format.
Preybird starfighters are cool yet rare. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Preybird
Or you could just make one up.
Montross, Jaster Mereel, Kir Kanos, Carnor Jax and Quinlan Vos unleashed would be cool.
I thought this was about bombers? Lol.
I could have any ship it would be Jango's Slave I or Jaster's Legacy.
He was going to take out a Moff I think.
Dengar's cool in whatever story he's in and I agree about his gun looking good.
Its a sawn off Imperial heavy repeating blaster rifle if I remember rightly.
Originally they were green,things have changed a lot since 1960's Dr Who.
They couldn't even travel on anything but metal surfaces back then.
They were easily killed as well because they couldn't regenerate,create force fields or any number of other stuff like fly.
Dalek's have force fields and can regenerate,lol.
Although I'm sure Boba would with eventually.
He'd need to get to the creature inside that controls it.
Thats the actual Dalek.
Dalek's are from an long a sci fi series called Dr Who they're suprisingly lethal even if they do look odd.
What aliens did look good in films in the late 70's to early 80's? Not many at all.
Its called suspension of belief thew same with anything else that was a bit stupid or cheesy.
Plenty of the dialogue was bad in all 6 films especially the prequels I still love them all though.
Anakin in any of the prequels other than who I've mentioned already. I was never a fan of Lando either.
He killed two IG droids. One in a space battle and one on Bespin.
As for the ion cannon it was like a bazooka that you fired from the shoulder it wasn't attached.
I could've worded that better.
The was four IG-88's and an IG-70 something thats supposedly still out there somewhere.
Palpatine was cool in the original trilogy but I thought he was awful in episode III.
It just put me off him.
Yeah. Its an EE-3 carbine rifle. He has used some different weapon's in the EU now and again like on Cloud City when he took out of one of the IG droids with a shoulder mounted ion cannon.

Mercure Nijmegen Centre Reviews
161 reviews
affordable and comfortable with a modern twist Nov 20, 2010
In order to attend the Nijmegen meet-up, TB Ils and I booked a night at the Mercure Nijmegen Center because of its location, right next to the central railway station. It's only a few minutes' walk to the historic center.
The hotel is easy accessible by car too and there is a large private parking lot behind the hotel, which is free of charge for guests.
We received a very friendly welcome and a little misunderstanding regarding the breakfast not being included in the room rate (while it acctually was) was quickly and efficiently solved.
Despite our early check-in (10 AM) the room was ready! We got a twin bed room on the 5th floor that was fairly quiet despite facing the busy road in front. The room was pleasantly decorated in bright colors and had all amenities expected from a 4-star property. I liked the eye for detail, such as a note from house keeping and the mints on the bedside table.
The bathroom was spotless and featured a bath tub, magnifying mirror and a nice sellection of toiletries.
Breakfast is served in the large restaurant on the ground floor and has a very large selection of both cold and warm items and typical Dutch items too. I especially appreciated the large choice of fresh cut fruits. Coffee and tea are served to the table.
Also check-out went fluently and hospitable and we left with a good feeling about this hotel. I'd surely stay here again!

Eric Heitmann hobbled off the field with what looked like a left ankle or foot injury. Matt Barrows, our resident Marcus Welby in the press corps, is predicting a plantar fascia injury. It did look as if Heitmann stepped on a hot coal. Eventually, Heitmann left the field via cart. More to be revealed later.
David Baas immediately stepped in and did an impressive job considering he hasn't played the position since 2006. Two plays after Heitmann went down, free agent outside linebacker Martail Burnett went down with a left knee injury and was taken to the locker room on a cart.
The 49ers also released punt returner specialist LeRoy Vann Monday morning; he was replaced in the punt return rotation by safety Reggie Smith. I will provide more details on these and other developments soon.
Also, Mike Singetary declared Iupati and Anthony Davis as starters at left guard and right tackle respectively.
Mike Singletary closed down practice early after a ragged session in team drills. The morning session ended with linebacker Parys Haralson crashing into quarterback David Carr inadvertently just after Carr released a medium range pass that wide receiver Jason Hill dropped. Singletary called up the team for about a two-minute discussion and then dismissed them. Singletary later said the team is struggling to work through the fabled training camp "wall."
It's no wonder. Singletary began camp with three-hour sessions and with the exception of Sunday afternoon's walk-through, the team has gone hard everyday.
Could the grueling start to camp be resulting in injuries now? It's hard to say. The season-ending knee injury to linebacker Scott McKillop occurred when he fell awkwardly, not because he was hit. Burnett also fell on his own, and I didn't see the other injuries.
But even though these injuries occurred mostly in non-contact situations, are they occurring because players are exhausted? In Monday morning's practice several players collided with each other inadvertently, including Glen Coffee and Manny Lawson, and Josh Morgan and Dashon Goldson. Are players losing the coordination to avoid each other or to land properly?
Singletary could easily point to Jimmy Johnson's Cowboys as an example of forging a championship team through constant contact. Johnson's teams went through hellish summers and hit late into the regular season. They rarely had injuries and they won Super Bowls. The counter is Bill Walsh. He believed in light camps, and very little hitting during the regular season in order to keep his teams fresh in the fourth quarter and in December. George Seifert and Steve Mariucci copied Walsh's light-hitting regimen.
Walsh thought a player would have never made an NFL training camp if they didn't know how to hit.
THE HEITMANN IMPLICATION: So what if Heitmann, who's been the 49ers best offensive lineman for the past several seasons, missed significant time? The line would certainly miss his play-calling ability and his undeniable leadership. Heitmann is the center for this team in many more ways than one.
That stated, Baas could be a perfect replacement. With Iupati now the starting left guard, Baas could find his future home at center. He's diligent (he once won awards at McDonald's for being a perfect employee as a kid). He's smart (once owned the highest wonderlic score on the team), big (at 330 he's one pound lighter than Iupati, who's the heaviest player on the team).
With Iupati making strides at Baas's left guard spot, Baas started working at center two days ago. On his first play from scrimmage Monday morning, he quickly turned out nose guard Ricky Jean Francois and sprung running back Glen Coffee for a nice little gain.
"The biggest challenge is getting everyone to trust me," Baas said. And by that it means his calls. As a six-year veteran and starter, Baas should engender trust almost immediately.

Redskins' Rogers is in a financial corner
Reprinted from yesterday's editions
In Courtroom 501 of the U.S. District Court in Alexandria, U.S. Magistrate Judge John F. Anderson took his seat. The first of five cases on his docket was William R. Teel, Jr. v. Carlos C. Rogers.
As an attorney for Teel addressed the court, there was no mention of Rogers's employer, the Washington Redskins, and certainly no talk of football. In the brief comments, there were also no details of the case or the financial storm that has swirled around Rogers in recent years.
No one was present on Rogers's behalf. He was at Redskins Park, as his team held its regularly scheduled practice the morning of Dec. 3.
Anderson confirmed that since September, the court had collected four checks ranging in value from $14,663 to $29,362 - money garnished from Rogers's Redskins paychecks - and that the judgment against Rogers had been satisfied. The hearing lasted less than two minutes, effectively and unceremoniously bringing to a close the eight-month case, the details of which provide just a hint of what Rogers has been grappling with away from the football field the past two seasons.
Rogers has earned more than $14 million playing football, but the financial struggles have cost him his home in Leesburg and attached his name to a handful of court cases in Virginia and Georgia. He says he still has money and that any financial problems are in the past.
"All that's behind," Rogers said in an interview Wednesday at Redskins Park. "Will [Teel's] behind. It's over with. The house is over with. Everything is fine."
His troubles come at a time, though, when players across the NFL are being encouraged to be especially conservative with their money. Because the labor uncertainty between team owners and players has put the 2011 season in jeopardy, the union has urged its members to save and warned them against needless spending.
"Coming into money could be a challenge for anyone," said Dana Hammonds, the NFL Players Association's director of player services and development, "and how you deal with friends, family, expectations could be difficult. That's difficult for anyone. That's why we really stress education."
The NFL and the union take steps each year discussing fiscal responsibility with players - from cash flow and investments to the basic understanding that most players will receive only 17 paychecks in a 52-week period - at the annual rookie symposium, in offseason classes, and in educational videos.
Hammond said the current labor uncertainty, which could see owners locking out players on March 3, 2011, serves as a "fire drill" for players who might have to prepare for a time when they don't receive regular football checks and must prepare for a second career.
Economic predicaments
Rogers said he met Teel through a mutual friend. Teel is a successful Washington businessman whose firms specialize in information technology and management consulting, and have made millions of dollars from lucrative government contracts. He's also an ardent Redskins fan who'd grown friendly in recent years with some Redskins players.

Faye Toogood's Interior Life
Architecture & Interiors
Mediocrity, it's safe to say, was never to be the destiny of someone with a name like Toogood; still, we should have known that the home of the British designer Faye Toogood would have style to burn. Toogood—whose peripatetic resume includes editorial, industrial, and interior design—defines her aesthetic as "the combination of the unexpected and the theatrical with something tactile or handmade, even painterly." All of which, happy to say, are abundantly evident in her elegantly refurbished London home. Her particular talent, befitting the eye of someone who studied art history, lies in creating still life compositions, poetic vignettes of carefully curated, seemingly unrelated objects. "I like to combine the precious and the raw," she says—and here, she does, to splendid effect.

Price: US$16.79 (SGD23.32*)Format: Paper Back, 332 pagesPublished: 2011, United Kingdom, 1st EditionISBN: 9780099523277SB#: 052100 (201)
Almost 1400 years after the Prophet Muhammad first articulated God's law - the sharia - its earthly interpreters are still arguing over what it means. Hardliners reduce it to amputations, veiling, holy war and stonings. Others say that it is humanity's only guarantee of a just society. In Heaven on Earth, Sadakat Kadri, a London-based criminal barrister and prize-winning writer, sets out to see who is right, and takes readers on a journey through Islam's past and present. Travelling the Islamic world, he encounters a cacophony of legal claims. At the ancient Indian grave of his Sufi ancestor, unruly jinns are exorcised in the name of the sharia. In Pakistan's madrasas, stern scholars ridicule his talk of human rights and demand explanations for NATO drone attacks in Afghanistan. In Iran, he hears that God is forgiving enough to subsidise sex-change operations - but requires the execution of Muslims who change religion. With bibliography and index.

Hi, my name is Josie. I am the co owner of a small charity in Malawi called Butterfly Space (Reg'd Charity no 1148162) and for the previous ten years I have been involved in numerous community projects in Malawi with my main focus on environmental projects.
So far we have done small scale fundraising for all the projects we have initiated, including a bicycle ride the length of Lake Malawi! We have wanted to keep the fundraising low-key so as not to over commit before we have the right things and people in place on the ground. This last year many of our projects have started to link together and grow and for the first time we feel there is the need to try and raise a larger amount so that we can realise the potential.
For the past year we have been working with the pupils and teachers at Mkondezi primary school about the principles and practises of permaculture, and there have been live weekly sessions up there, where we have made huge progress. More pupils have joined in, as have parents, more teachers and other members of the community. There was so much progress and interest that in May we held an open day to highlight their good work.
Numerous schools and Government officials since signed up for a further programme and as we speak there is a week-long training being held at Butterfly Space. We will assist them with lesson plans and resources throughout the coming school year.
At Mkondezi School then we are looking to expand in a two ways;
There are over a thousand children at the school and while a school feeding programme was initiated, it hasn't been maintained. We are looking to link with Garden 2 Mouth (link) and acquire a hectare of land for the schools use to grow nutritionally sound food using permaculture principles. This food would go straight into the school-feeding programme. Garden 2 Mouth have done an enormous amount of research into the programme and developed clear guidelines which once set up would not only provide amazing nutritional meals for all the kids at the primary school but will also set up a useful outdoor classroom for agriculture and nutritional ideas.
One thing that would be essential would be a drip irrigation system and we have developed links with the University of Mzuzu in the North of Malawi to assist us in this aim.
Secondly, on-site there are two good strong buildings, which used to be a home economics lab and carpentry workshop, but have fallen into disrepair. It would be brilliant to renovate these spaces so that nutritional lessons can start once again and with other links made both within Malawi and outside to get more vocational training's happening there for both the girls and boys.
What the money will be spent on;
* Resources for the schools signed up for the permaculture project. 5 schools in total and this will be items like fruit trees, gardening tools, books and resources.
* Some more substantial infrastructure for the hectare of land including the drip irrigation kit
* Wages for two gardeners on site at Mkondezi to look after the planting schedule at the school.
* Renovating the Home Economics and Carpentry workshops at Mkondezi School.
Thank you card and mention on the Facebook page.

Can anyone help me in normalize this table..and tell me in which normal form the table sign

Without knowing your total diagram at least you can create the following tables:
the sign table will be sign (member-id, activity-id, session-id, coach-id)
answered Dec 17, 2011 at 01:27 AM
Wilfred van Dijk
some hints:
(you need to clarify you application a little more, or we'll start guessing)
Dec 17, 2011 at 01:30 AM Wilfred van Dijk
Given this scenario
Table Sign is one-table database recording the enrollment information of sports club members in sports activities. The information recorded are the member id, the member name, the activity id, the activity name, a session id that is unique within the same activity, the day, times of the activity session enrolled, and the id and name of the coach supervising the activity session. Each session must be supervised by only one coach and the duration of all activity sessions is one hour.
so that I think the primary key is may be memeber id >> what did you think?
Dec 17, 2011 at 01:57 AM sun 1
So it seems a session_id covers: activity_id, schedule and coach Try this :
table member([member_id], member_name) table activity([activity_id], activity_name) table coach ([coach_id], coach_name) table session([session_id, activity_id, coach_id, day, time]) table sign([member_id, session_id])
PK is written as [column]
Dec 17, 2011 at 02:14 AM Wilfred van Dijk
i think the dependency are MemberID --> ActivityID ActivityID --> SessionID
so that I get different table and why you put the day, time as primary key
Dec 17, 2011 at 03:27 AM sun 1
You're right: in table session: session_id is enough as a PK, but you should also create a unique index on activity_id, coach_id, day and time to prevent duplicates
If you assign a member_id to an activity_id, you can only create this combination one time, or is this the case? Could you give some examples of an activity?
Dec 17, 2011 at 03:47 AM Wilfred van Dijk
"first table Member ([MemID], MemName, ActivityID) Second table Activity ([ActivityID], ActName, SesID) Third table Session ([SesID], Day, From, To, CoachID) Fourth table Coach ([CoachID], Name)" is incorrect. It states that one member can only ever engage in a single activity, which is incorrect. "Session" is your clue. What do sessions have? Times. They happen at times and involve people, places, and things. They are transactional. This is your fact table. All others are referential. The reference tables Member, Activity, and Coach are not related to each other. Think of Session as being a grab bag that pulls all the others together for a party.

MORRISON — Karen Stoffer made her NHRA pro stock motorcycle debut in 1996 at Bandimere Speedway and collected her first event victory at the track Sunday. In the finals of the 32nd Mopar Mile-High Nationals, she produced the sixth victory of her career and first this season by out- racing Michael Phillips.
Stoffer, 47, covered the quarter- mile race in 7.283 seconds (182.58 mph) and became the second woman to win a national event at Bandimere.
Phillips went 7.394 and 182.01.
Both racers needed hole shots (far superior starts) to win their semifinal rounds, with Stoffer beating Eddie Krawiec and Phillips doing the same to No. 1 qualifier Hector Arana.
Stoffer improved to 1-4 in final- round races this year and leaped over Krawiec to the top of the division standings.
"Patience, fortitude . . . this is a tough sport," said Stoffer, of Minden, Nev. "It showed that we were consistent, we made it to the final round those times. But, yeah, it certainly is much better to bring home the Wally (trophy) and turn on that win light."
Stoffer is the NHRA's third-winningest female racer behind former pro stock bike star Angelle Sampey and top fuel legend Shirley Mul- downey.
Sampey also made her NHRA debut in 1996 at Bandimere, where she won the 2000 and 2001 events.
Race of champions.
Top fuel juggernauts Tony Schumacher and Larry Dixon, who have combined to win the past nine class championships, faced off in the first round, and Schumacher won a close race.
Schumacher went 4.006 (308.50 mph) to Dixon's 4.116 (290.76 mph).
"Gratifying as it gets to run those guys (and win)," Schumacher said.
Dixon is the defending world champion, having ended Schumacher's run of six consecutive titles a year ago.
Dixon also won it all in 2002 and 2003. Schumacher's first crown came in 1999.
Top fuel's Rod Fuller, the No. 11 seed, eliminated No. 6 Dominick Lagana and No. 3 Doug Kalitta, the defending event champion, before bowing to Schumacher in the semifinals. . . . Pro stock bike's Mike Berry of Littleton red-lighted in the quarterfinals by 0.008 of a second, allowing Phillips a free round. . . . Denver native Melanie Troxel was ousted in the first round of funny car. . . . Pro stock's Vincent Nobile, a contender for rookie of the year, red- lighted by 0.001 of a second in the first round. . . . Sportsman winners Sunday included Bandimere regulars Clint Neff of Arvada (competition eliminator) and Scott Burton of Golden (stock eliminator). Morrison's Wayde Samuel was the runner-up in super gas.

Today's possible 104 degree heat has unfortunately been almost the norm for Raleigh over the past few weeks. Newsweek's The Daily Beast has caught onto our heatwave and ranked Raleigh the third hottest city in the country so far this Summer, falling only behind the Midwest cities of Lubbock, TX and Oklahoma City, OK. Raleigh has managed 54 hotter than normal days since June 1st and we are definitely feeling the heat. Let's hope we get a reprieve from the heat in the coming weeks but considering August is typically our hottest month, there's probably no letting up anytime soon.
Today, could also break a heat record at RDU, according to WRAL.

Varonis welcomes new EU data privacy rules: "Balances the needs of users for the first time."
According to the data governance specialist, the new rules are an excellent balance between the very real data privacy needs of citizens against the practical issues of managing data within the modern corporate environment.
"Notice I said practical issues. Many IT security professionals have expressed concerns about the technical problems associated with managing, protecting and auditing access to their growing data stores. While these concerns are understandable, the reality is that with the correct technology in place - these issues can easily be solved," said David Gibson, the firm's director of strategy.
"Many organisations have been struggling with non-existent or limited permissions management, classification, and auditing capabilities included with their data stores, but new Metadata framework technologies can provide intelligence, automation, and control across multiple platforms to allow C-level executives to sleep easy in their beds at night," he added.
According to Gibson, whose firm specialises in providing intelligence and control for the often-overlooked - and often-unsecure - area of unstructured data, the introduction of a single set of privacy standards for all EU territories is long overdue, although he notes that the migration to the new rules may be a complex process for some multinationals - and those firms who are pushing into new countries for the first time.
"The key issue in the new rules that made me sit up and take notice," he says, "is the requirement that any company maintaining personal information - be that customer records, internal human resources directories or any other list - will have to comply with the new rules, and be able to show how and why they are using personal data."
There have been, he explained, some fears that the planned five per cent turnover penalties were too high. While a two per cent maximum will please many industry onlookers, it will still act as a very positive deterrent for any company thinking they can simply hope for the best with their actual data protection systems.
One area that Gibson says he particularly welcomes is the requirement that companies that misplace any personal information must immediately notify the regulatory authorities - and all concerned parties - as is the additional requirement for companies with more than 250 staff to appoint a data protection officer.
"This latter requirement is excellent news. The appointment of a data protection officer will help focus the attention of many more companies on what has become a major issue for everyone in this digital age - and help ensure that the vast majority of firms do a lot more than simply pay lip service to the new regulations," he said.
"The application of the rules to non-EU entities - especially those in the US - that want to offer their goods and services into the EU - is also to be welcomed, as it helps to balance parallel requirements under the US Sarbanes-Oxley governance rules, for example," he added.
"Yes, there will be a lot of moaning and groaning about the new rules, but I predict that - as we have seen with the PCI DSS governance rules - after a short while, they will become the accepted business practice and part of the data protection and management landscape. And that is a significant move forward for everyone."

Need Our Help?
Before you click the "Need Help" button OR before you decide to contact another group, please take a moment to read the following ……………….
There are things you should know and questions that need to be asked, before selecting an individual or a group to come into your home or establishment:
How long has this individual or group been investigating haunted locale?
How old are the people doing the investigations?
Are these groups or individuals charging a fee for their investigations?
Do they claim to have investigated an insane number of places?
Are their pictures and evidence "dubious"?
What are their "qualifications" and what does it say?
Do they have member profiles?
Do they share their viewpoints or theories?
Do they claim to be "experts"?
Do they help and support their community?
Are they going to be there for you in the long run?
Are they going to help you, even if they seem ill equipped to handle your case?
Do they ask you to leave your own home or place of business in order for them to conduct their investigation?
Do they allow children to get involved in their investigations, in any way?
Honestly, we are very weary with most paranormal or ghost hunting groups. In the past few years, many groups have popped up and declared themselves "Ghost Hunters." Their credentials seem to be that they have watched several episodes of reality-based ghost shows on television, and now declare themselves "experts" in the paranormal field. Many of these groups are comprised of teens or individuals barely out of their teens; they seem to have no set standards or protocols in place; and they have a tendency to deem everything "PARANORMAL".
Many of these groups charge you for investigations. We do not – our group was founded by Stacey Jones 20 years ago to conduct research and to help people who felt that they had nowhere else to go. Stacey has moved on to greener pastures (and warmer weather), but our group has continued to follow the same protocols and high standards. Let's be honest, how can anyone charge for an investigation of something that we are not even sure actually exists.
Do these individuals or groups claim to have been certified by "SOMEONE" as a "Paranormal Investigator," "Ghost Hunter," "EVP Specialist," or "Grief Counselor"? Do not buy into these fake credentials. Sitting in on a class or two and getting a piece of paper claiming you have now earned some kind of a "title" is ludicrous. There are even "FREE home study" courses you can take online (on the honor system) and then print off your very own certification. No experience required!!! The study of the Paranormal is the study of the unknown. No one has "The Answers." So my question to you is, how can anyone be certified or hold a degree in the unknown?
You will never be told by our group that "we have all the answers" – NO ONE does. Some groups will try to tell you that every orb is a ghost or at least in some way paranormal. We believe that capturing convincing evidence happens, but is rare. That's where you will benefit from a group with many years of experience.
CNYGH is comprised of 20 plus members. Many of our members hold at least a 4-year degree from a legitimate accredited University. We DO NOT encourage our members to take any person's or group's "home study" course. We learn from theory and legitimate research.
You may still have many questions. If after reading the above you have decided you would like our help, click the "Need Help" button or send us an email.
We will always try to steer you in the right direction so that you get the help you need.
Happy H(a)unting!
Central New York Ghost Hunters
