Notre Dame and Michigan first played in 1887 when the Wolverines brought football to South Bend and played a bunch of students (not unlike USF did last week). The Wolverines also introduced Fighting Irish to losing, winning the first 8 contests. Michigan leads the overall series 22-15-1. But this isn't about the stuff you know about our opponent, it's about the stuff you don't. It's the 2011 edition of the MZone favorite, Know Your Foe.
|I thought this was a clue from LOST
but it's the Notre Dame seal
The school was founded in 1842 by a 28 year old priest and was originally known as "University of Notre Dame du Lac," which - in keeping with our French theme - means "Our Lady of the Lake." But there are actually two lakes on campus. Legend has it that when the school was founded, everything was frozen and so they only thought there was one lake. The land on which ND sits had been purchased by Rev. Stephen Badin, the first Catholic priest ordained in the United States, and left in trust for anyone who would found a school on the site. A fire in 1879 practically wiped out the campus, but within ten years the campus was once again thriving (which, in retrospect, is shorter than it has taken to revive the football that, long after Lou Holtz left, is still not thriving).
The influence of Catholicism is obvious throughout the campus, where 82% of the students identify as Roman Catholic. The Basilica of the Sacred Heart is in the center of campus, a statue of the Virgin Mary stands on the dome of the Main Building ("The Golden Dome"), and there are crucifixes in most classrooms on campus. Know Your Foe was unable to confirm if confessionals were being installed at Notre Dame Stadium to allow fans to be forgiven for what they shouted out last weekend after three ND turnovers inside the USF 10 yard line.
According to Wikipedia, more than 80% of the university's 8,000 undergraduates live on campus in one of 29 single-sex residence halls, each of which fields teams for more than a dozen intramural sports (not to be confused with the team which has struggled on fall Saturdays for the last 15 years or so). Notre Dame's approximately 120,000 alumni are located around the world, any of which will be sure to find you and make your life a living hell if their team beats Michigan this weekend or starts winning in general.
Location - Technically, the school is located in unincorporated Notre Dame, Indiana, though most people just consider it in South Bend which is right next door. In addition, you may not know (or care) that Notre Dame is only about four miles from the Michigan border. But it's still in Indiana. Thankfully.
The population of South Bend has declined since a peak of 132,445 in 1960 to 101,168 according to the 2010 census. Experts say this is due to the demise of heavy industry like Studebaker and Oliver Chilled Plow Company and not because the football team has started to suck. Today, the largest industries in South Bend are health care, education, small business and tourism.
Nickname - Notre Dame athletic teams are known as the Fighting Irish (though students are called "Domers," or those "@#$% annoying fans" by others). The Irish have one of the most unique and well-known nicknames in all of sports. As a matter of fact, there are no other colleges that use "Irish" as their nickname.
According to the University's website, there are several legends of how Notre Dame came to be the "Fighting Irish." One story is that the name was born in 1899 with Notre Dame leading Northwestern 5-0 at halftime in Evanston. Allegedly, Wildcat fans began to chant, "Kill the Fighting Irish! Kill the Fighting Irish," as
The most generally accepted explanation is that the press coined the nickname as a characterization of Notre Dame teams in the 1920s as a result of preexisting Irish stereotypes.
Before the '20s, Notre Dame had several nicknames, including the Rovers and the Ramblers, due to their willingness to travel to play football during the Knute Rockne era. At one point they were also known as the Terriers, at which time an Irish Terrier would appear on the sideline during football games. There's no doubt that if they'd kept that name, the history of Notre Dame football would be very different (although they may be forced to re-adopt that name if they keep losing to teams like USF).
|Dude, put your hand down. You can hear Brian Kelly
swearing from the parking lot.
The live mascot is always a student that wins an annual tryout. The green knickers and gold vest that he wears is topped by an Irish country hat. The leprechaun carries around a shillelagh during the game leading cheers in the student section, and is hoisted by the cheerleaders after every ND score to perform a pushup for every Irish point.
Colors - Blue and Gold. That's right, no green. They use the green when they feel like they need it (which means they should permanently switch to green). When they first broke out the green jerseys in the '70s it was a fun gimmick. But now that just about every college and pro team has an "alternate" jersey (and Oregon has 384), this tactic seems very played. The blue and gold are a great combination, though not necessarily unique (Navy and Brigham Young use the same colors). And though they are the picture of utter blandness, the golden helmets are iconic and a perfect symbol for the university.
Helmets - ND's helmets represent the Golden Dome atop the Main Building on campus. As with so many things at Notre Dame, tradition plays a huge part with the helmets. The team's student managers spray paint the helmets prior to each game, refreshing the shine each week (INSERT 487TH USF JOKE ABOUT NOT NEEDING TO DO THAT AFTER LAST WEEKEND HERE). The paint contains actual gold. Although ND has had the same helmet design since 1964, which is the longest-running unchanged helmet design among the NCAA Division I-A colleges, they haven't always been so plain. From 1959 to 1962, head coach Joe Kuharich added a green shamrock to the helmet. In 1963, plain white numbers replaced the shamrock for one season.
Fight Song – Notre Dame Victory March. One of the most famous college football fight songs was written by brothers and Notre Dame grads, Michael and John Shea in the early 1900s. Though it ranked only fifth in a Sports Illustrated poll of the best college fight songs, it's second as far as the MZone is concerned (The Victors is number one in both rankings). The beginning part with the flutes, where the leprechaun dances around, the way the band plays it quietly during the extra point and then pumps up the volume right after and the fact that so many non-football fans know the song make it a classic. Know Your Foe hates it and loves it at the same time.
The original lyrics, which were written in 1908, were revised in the late 1920s to the following:
Rally sons of Notre Dame:
Sing her glory and sound her fame,
Raise her Gold and Blue
And cheer with voices true:
Rah, rah, for Notre Dame
We will fight in ev-ry game,
Strong of heart and true to her name
We will ne'er forget her
And will cheer her ever
Loyal to Notre Dame
Cheer, cheer for old Notre Dame,
Wake up the echoes cheering her name,
Send a volley cheer on high,
Shake down the thunder from the sky.
What though the odds be great or small
Old Notre Dame will win over all,
While her loyal sons are marching
Onward to victory.
Those are some damn good lyrics for a college fight song. They invoke the name of the university, the colors, mention cheering, fighting, and loyalty, and has ultimate confidence in victory. No wonder they've won so many football games.
Academics - There's no doubt Notre Dame is a strong academic institution. But how strong all depends on who you ask. Ask a Domer and he's going to say it's at least in the top ten, maybe even number 1, up there with Stanford, Harvard, Princeton and Yale. Most non-Domers would put it somewhere outside the top 25. Michigan grads would put it anywhere below U-M. Domers love their school and that's one of the main reasons it ranks highly on college rankings like the U.S. News and World Reports' list, where it ranks 19th (Michigan is 29th). Alumni giving for ND is always among the highest. Perhaps this helps explain why the university reserves almost a quarter of its admissions spots for legacies of Notre Dame. Know Your Foe has always felt that among Big Ten schools, Michigan alums love their school the most. But that love of alma mater is no more than the love Notre Dame grads (and families of grads) have for their school.
Football Program - 13 Fighting Irish teams have won consensus national championships (although the university only claims 11, unlike Alabama which claims one if somebody says "Hey, your team was good this year" anywhere near the Tide campus), along with another nine teams being named national champion by at least one source.
The Irish play in Notre Dame Stadium, an 80,795-seat stadium on campus that was modeled after The Big House. The football team generates enough revenue to operate independently while $22.1 million is retained from the team's profits for academic use. Forbes named the team as the most valuable in college football, worth a total of $101 million in 2007.
|Would you rather see them or Regis?
The Game - Tough call. Really tough call. While the Irish looked awful last weekend, there is no way they can be that bad (can they?). As even Kelly
As for Michigan, even the biggest fan (us included) has to admit the jury is still out. The defense initially looked like last year's squad, but then made some adjustments...then the game ended. The offense wasn't bad, Shoelace didn't have to do it all...then the game ended. But we're all waiting for Denard to break free - just like he did last year vs. ND. Will this be the day Shoelace again becomes Superman? Under the lights? In Michigan's first night game?
Michigan - 24
Notre Dame - 14

Right, first we need to clarify few things:What's the size of the car? Pictures would help. If it's a full size car (the one that You'd drive on a street), putting 72V battery is peanuts.Whta's the size of the motor? Datasheet and pictures would help.If it's a small car, then why do You need such high torque and high voltage motor to drive it? Can You use something smaller? Are You sure it's 72V and not 7.2V?

Sorry you feel that way, MountainGirl. I never said in my article that I am affluent. I was referring to a market that financially justifies vegan options. I live to be of service and help others succeed rather than focusing on myself.

Hi there,
First off, thank you for having such a useful site.
I think I have some serious water quality problems. Please HELP.
I just moved in a 60 yrs old house 3 months ago. This house has:
- all copper pipes
- been vacant for more than a year before I moved in
- Main water meter is at street side (3/4") about 40' from main shut off valve, which is in front of the house.
- From this valve, cold valve goes under concrete slab to kitchen sink, 2 bathrooms, & water heater in garage.
- Hot water of course then goes from WH, I think also underground back to the bathrooms & kitchen.
Now the problem: I've been noticing that there are some really nasty, clear looking pieces of "stuff", about 1/8"x3/16" - 1/8" x 1/4" in the water, plus a whole lot of dirty hair line size stuff. These clear pieces look like fish fin falloffs or something. I try at the water entrance (garden hose bib @ main valve up front), kitchen sink, bathroom sinks, every where. I know it's not from my WH since it's in the cold line.
As I mentioned before, my water pipe goes underground so I can't install a whole house filter. Well, I actually planned to put one inline filter (3/4") right in front of the house despite the look if I can't figure out how to fix the problem.
My guess was the problem was probably caused by the standing water for a long period, maybe? Can I possibly clean the pipe system somehow?
Any suggestion? Please help. And sorry for the long message.
Thank you in advance.

DENVER (AP) — Arron Afflalo had 30 points, Andre Miller scored 13 of his 15 in the fourth quarter and Denver Nuggets scored the final nine points to beat the Phoenix Suns 105-99 on Friday night.
Shannon Brown scored 18 points and Steve Nash had 14 points and 11 assists for the Suns, who had their three-game win streak snapped.
Al Harrington scored 23 points to help the Nuggets take sole possession of seventh place in the Western Conference, a half-game ahead of idle Houston and 1 1/2 in front of Utah. The Suns dropped to 10th place, a half-game behind the Jazz.
The win also gave Denver the tiebreaker against the Suns, as the Nuggets have won the teams' first two meetings — including a 109-92 victory on Feb. 14. They play again April 24 in Phoenix.
Nash didn't play in the previous matchup, and his presence Friday made this game more competitive. He hit a 3-pointer to put the Suns ahead 97-92 with 5:08 left, but Denver rallied to win again.
Miller fed rookie Kenneth Faried on a long alley-oop to start the comeback. Miller then scored on two layups and hit two free throws to give the Nuggets a 100-99 lead.
After Phoenix didn't score, Miller drove the lane and found Afflalo in the corner and he made his fifth 3-pointer of the game to give Denver a four-point lead with 48 seconds left.
Afflalo finished 11 for 19 from the field after missing his first four shots.
The Nuggets went on a 16-6 run to start the second half and take a 68-58 lead. The Suns rallied to go ahead 75-73 on two free throws by Nash. Harrington scored the last five points of the period to give Denver a 78-75 lead, and his two 3s early in the fourth pushed the lead to 86-79.
Phoenix answered with a 13-1 run to lead 92-87 midway through the fourth.
The teams traded early runs in the first half. Phoenix led by as many as eight before the Nuggets responded.
With Denver trailing 35-29 early in the second quarter, Harrington scored 10 of his 12 first-half points and Afflalo hit a 3 to key an 18-4 run to give the Nuggets an eight-point lead.
The Suns came right back with an 11-1 run to take a 50-48 lead late in the half. Jordan Hamilton's jumper tied the score at 52-all at halftime.
NOTES: Hamilton became the 16th player to start for the Nuggets this season. … Nuggets F Wilson Chandler (groin) missed his third straight game. He had an MRI earlier Friday to determine the severity of the injury. … Suns G Michael Redd scored 13 of his 15 points in the fourth quarter.

Precautions taken to treat disease occurrence in bison herd
The Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks has cancelled its 2006 buffalo auction, which was scheduled for November 15 at Maxwell Wildlife Refuge.
The cancellation was deemed necessary due to a very recent occurrence of a Mycoplasma bovis-induced pneumonia and arthritis among some buffalo in the Maxwell herd. Mycoplasma bovis is a major but often overlooked pathogen that causes respiratory disease, arthritis, and mastitis in cattle. When it was first isolated in the U.S. in the 1960s, it seemed to occur infrequently, but now the infection has become more widespread in cattle herds.
The 2,250-acre Maxwell Refuge is located 6 miles north of Canton in McPherson County. KDWP maintains a fenced-in display herd of about 200 buffalo at the refuge, and surplus animals are sold at auction annually.
KDWP staff will immediately begin an intensive vaccination program in order to eliminate the disease in the herd, according to Randy Clark, KDWP Region 4 public lands supervisor. The department plans to resume its annual buffalo auction at Maxwell in 2007.
KDWP maintains a separate herd of buffalo at the Sand Sage Bison Range near Garden City, and no animals in that herd have been affected. Surplus animals from the department's herd at the Sand Sage Bison Range are usually sold at the annual auction at the Maxwell Refuge, but this year they will be sold on December 2 at the Kansas Buffalo Association's auction in Salina.

Texas A&M Keeping A Close Eye On Big 12Posted by jstevrtc on August 3rd, 2010
The higher-ups in College Station, Texas keep on checkin' that mailbox.
A few days ago, the Texas A&M student-run Battalion newspaper reported that Big 12 commissioner Dan Beebe, the man credited with saving that conference, didn't exactly seem fired up to discuss the $20 million the Big 12 is supposed to pay A&M annually as part of a deal that kept the conference intact, noting that Beebe would "get around to talking to A&M about this 'hidden' money."
As you recall, part of the deal that held the Big 12 together a couple of months ago was that the "big three" schools — namely Texas, Texas A&M, and Oklahoma — would each receive a yearly $20 million payment as part of a new ABC/ESPN/Fox Sports television deal and from the exit costs incurred by Nebraska and Colorado when they decided to bolt for the Big Ten and Pac-10, respectively. Those exit fees (if they actually exist) from those two schools totaled upwards of $20-40 million, and five of the remaining schools — Baylor, Missouri, Iowa State, Kansas, and Kansas State, as reported in a summary of this situation by the Houston Chronicle — agreed to forego their shares of this money and let the "big three" divide it up amongst themselves, as long as those three schools would stay in the conference and thereby keep it together. Texas and Oklahoma said thanks-but-no-thanks to that cash. Texas A&M accepted it.
Also according to that piece by Brent Zwerneman in the Chronicle, a Texas A&M official stated last Wednesday that A&M doesn't really care how the conference comes up with the money — just that the Big 12 honor their end of the agreement, and that failure to do so would result in both legal action and a reopening of talks with the SEC. Texas A&M president R. Bowen Loftin spoke at an A&M event in Houston on Saturday and minced no words on the issue, proclaiming, "I guarantee you we will be treated fairly. Whatever it takes." Loftin's words came two days after Mr. Beebe reaffirmed that Texas A&M would get their $20 million cut.
For several reasons, we're pretty sure that the Big 12 will come through. Not only would they never live down the embarrassment from reneging on the deal, but consider that the payments don't even start until the 2012-13 academic year, giving them ample time — something they didn't have as the conference was crumbling in June — to figure out how to divide up the cash from the TV deal and the exit fees. And if the conference somehow doesn't hold up their end, Texas A&M would certainly make good on that SEC threat, enticing rival Texas to do the same, and leaving Oklahoma no incentive to stay put. The price of not coming up with the money would seem to be the very existence of the conference.
Keep in mind, though, that as of right now this whole agreement involving the $20-mil is oral. Until one of two things shows up in College Station — the dough, or a written form of the agreement — A&M will continue to play that SEC card, and you can't really blame them.

|Soupe de Lasagnes (Provençale Pasta Soup)
December, 2002
Serves 6 / The traditional Christmas Eve "fasting supper" in Upper Provence is a delicious winter-vegetable soup, meatless but fortified with pasta. The ribbon noodles' frilled edges are said to remind participants of the curls of the infant Jesus. Olive oil or a garlic mayonnaise (aioli) is passed around separately to allow participants to adhere as strictly to the rules of fasting as they please.
3-4 stalks celery, washed and cut into short lengths
3-4 large carrots, scraped and roughly chopped
3-4 young turnips, peeled and roughly chopped
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 bay leaf
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional)
1/2 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme, or 1/2 teaspoon dried
8 cups cold water
1 teaspoon salt
6 ounces lasagne or papardelle (frilly edges optional), broken into bite-size pieces
5-6 stalks chard, washed and cut into short lengths
1/4 head cabbage, cut into fine strips
3-4 leeks, trimmed, well-washed and cut into thin rings
Salt and pepper
Olive oil or garlic mayonnaise (aioli)
1. In a large pot, cover celery, carrots, turnips, garlic, and herbs with water. Add salt and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until vegetables are nearly done, 10-15 minutes.
2. Add pasta and return to a boil. Add chard, cabbage, and leeks in order, bringing back to a boil between additions. Cook over medium-high heat for 20 minutes, or until pasta is tender. Taste and adjust seasonings.
3. Ladle broth and vegetables into deep soup plates. Enrich with oil or aioli, if desired.

State doubles staff to cope with glitches of $63 million unemployment website
Ok, this is getting expensive.
More than 250 staffers will be hired over the next three months to help process claims for jobless benefits. Another 80 will be hired to handle calls.
The massive hiring follows the aftermath of the Department of Economic Opportunity's troubled roll out of its $63 million website to process unemployment claims. Since its Oct. 15 debut, it has been plagued with problems, giving the state's more than 230,000 claimants much to stress about as they wait, and wait, for the money they need to survive to arrive. At first, DEO executive director Jesse Panuccio blamed the media for raising needless alarms.
But since December, Panuccio has acknowledged that the website does face persistent problems. On Dec. 20, the state announced that it began enforcing a $15,000-per-business day penalty against Deloitte and was withholding $3 million from the vendor. It will be paid when CONNECT is "fully functioning."
A large number of the thousands of delays in payments since the launch have come in the processing of claims that are in dispute or in question. There are 250 employees, called "adjudicators", who currently review these claims and help make a determination if they are valid or not.
The DEO will add 100 adjudicators in January, another 100 in February and 50 in March.
"We have focused on this area because we know it will do the most to expedite payments to people who have been waiting the longest," Panuccio said in a statement Thursday.
Another 80 agents will also be added to call centers to help the DEO respond to the flood of calls and complaints it has received since the launch of the website.
"We are dedicated to making sure every claim is processed quickly, and we will continue to work until every claimant is served," Panuccio said.
How much will all this cost? Panuccio and the DEO have yet to say.

looking for Charles McGill of Ireland-Cincinnati-Covington, KY
I am looking for information on my gggrandfather Charles McGill, born around 1825 in Co. Mayo. He immigrated to Cincinnati by 1848 and had a wife, Mary Moran, and a son Thomas born in 1848. Mary must have died soon after as Charles remarried in 1852 to Rose McKenzie. They had the following children together: John born in 1855, my ggrandfather, Annie, Charles, Francis and James. I believe the last 2 children were born in Covington. I cannot find Charles of Ireland after 1873. The family stayed close to Covington and Cincinnati except for John, my ggrandfather who relocated to Washington, DC to work in the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. I am a beginner researcher so any help would be appreciated.
looking for Joseph Stutts of PA, and possibly of Germany
My gg grandfather was Joseph Stutts born around 1821 in PA or Germany - I am not sure. His Stutts family settled and stayed in PA-focusing on Juniata Co. and Harrisburg. He married Hannah Shrawder and they had the following children: William Lucian in 1852, George in 1855, Martha about 1857 and Randolph in 1862. It looks like Joseph also died in 1862. I cannot find anything on him and I am a beginner researcher. Can anyone help.
Looking for Connells of Boherbue, Ireland
I am embracing my Irish heritage. I am looking for my great grandfather's roots in Ireland. My great grandfather was baptized 8/28/1838 in Laharan, Boherbue Ireland. His name was Denis Connell and he came to America and settled in Washington, DC in the 1850's. He was a grocer on Capitol Hill. I am looking for info on his exact arrival date in the US and info on his Irish family. His father was John Connell,born 1810 and his mother was Mary Sullivan, born 1815. I would like to know when they were marrried and in which county. I believe John Connell's parents were William Connell and Mary Connor. I would like info on these ancestors and the names of Denis's siblings and who might have come to America also.
Thank you,

"Father, hear the prayers of the family you have gathered here before you" (Eucharistic Prayer III). What do we think of when our parish priest reads these words at Mass? Are we alert enough to hear and embrace this petition?
Do we consider this reference to our being a "family" a merely poetic expression or pious exaggeration? Or do we embrace in faith the reality that all of us gathered for Sunday Mass are, in fact, members of the Family of God?
Pope John Paul II emphasized throughout his pontificate that the Church is nothing other than the Family of God. Why? Because, through our Baptism, each one of us has been "born again" as a child of God. We participate—even now—in God's own life. And this life is familial, not solitary. As the Holy Father said, "God in His deepest mystery is not a solitude, but a family, since He has in Himself fatherhood, sonship, and the essence of the family, which is love."
How refreshing it is to understand the Church as a family, rather than as an impersonal institution or even as a congregation of isolated individuals who all happen to believe in Jesus. This understanding is especially challenging today, since we've largely lost our sense of "family" and many of us have been wounded by brokenness and division within our own families.
A family is where our home is. It is where we should always be welcome. This is especially true in God's family, from which all other families derive their existence (Eph. 3:14-15). My favorite image in this regard is the parable of the Prodigal Son, which reveals how welcoming and merciful our Heavenly Father truly is.
While God's family in the Old Testament was built upon the twelve tribes of Israel, God's New Testament family is built on the firm foundation of the twelve apostles. Bishops, who are the successors of the apostles, have been called by Christ to be our spiritual fathers. They are the visible source of family unity within their own diocese. That's why St. Ignatius, Bishop of Antioch and a disciple of St. John the Apostle, would write in 110 A.D.: "Those, indeed, who belong to God and to Jesus Christ–they are with the bishop."
From the earliest times, there have been presbyters ("priests") who have been given the mission of assisting the bishop in spiritually fathering God's family in local communities that have come to be known as parishes. These communities—your parish and my parish—are local manifestations of God's family, a family that brings together people of every race and nation, that encompasses not only the pilgrim Church on earth, but all those who have died in God's friendship. What a magnificent family we have—and what great love the Father has bestowed on us in making us His children (1 Jn. 3:1)!
Yet our own experience of the Church might make it difficult sometimes to view the Church as a family. This is particularly true when we encounter polarization and dissent instead of family unity in the Church.
Surely one of our deepest desires and most heartfelt prayers is for unity within our own natural families. We long for reconciliation with our parents, siblings, spouses, and children, which often involves the healing of long-standing divisions and misunderstandings.
Similarly, as members of the Family of God, we must likewise make fervent prayer for Christian unity a top priority. This includes not only the healing of rifts that have divided Christendom for centuries, but also the healing of the rifts that plague the Catholic Church in our own country and maybe even in our own parish right now. And this certainly must include prayers for the "family members" we find most difficult to love.
In trying to promote harmonious living within my own family, I frequently encourage my children to be part of the solution, not part of the problem. We need to be constantly on the lookout for creative ways to build up rather than destroy. And as the "pastor" of my domestic Church, I do exercise authority when I need to do so. However, I much prefer that my children learn to work things out among themselves than come running to me every time they have a grievance with their siblings.
When it comes to parish life, some problems won't go away overnight. They require ongoing, constructive attempts to foster good personal relationships. When problems make us turn our hearts against members of our parish–perhaps even our pastor–we run the serious risk of becoming "part of the problem."
This may come as a shock, but my own family is not perfect. Inevitably problems and disputes do arise. Sometimes they're even my fault!
There is also no such thing as a perfect parish. Problems arise, and sometimes, despite our best efforts, they persist. What do we do?
The most important thing is that, as Bl. Teresa of Calcutta taught, we are called to be faithful, not successful. We must not grow weary of doing the right thing (2 Thess. 3:13). In some cases, the right thing involves taking the real suffering of not successfully "fixing" a problem and offering it in union with Our Lord's sacrifice.
And just as problems in my family are often all or partly my fault, all of us as members of the Family of God must continually seek the renewal and healing of our own hearts.
At the heart of family life is generosity, which literally means "full of giving life." In a natural family setting this involves openness to the gift of children, as well as myriad acts of charity and hospitality. That's what a home is all about.
Similarly, if we pour ourselves out in generous service on behalf of the Family of God, the results will be life-giving, as many more children of God will feel at home in the Church. And perhaps, then, our parish will be ready to welcome new members into our family, and maybe even reach out effectively to disgruntled or alienated family members in the spirit of the new evangelization.
Isn't that what the "new evangelization" is all about?

This one is interesting and very annoying.
My virus program, ESET SS, is set for a two way stop of incoming and
outgoing garbage. Here is the messgage it produced when I signed
on this morning:
application: windows media player network sharing service
publisher: unknown
remote computer: FreeStaffWorld.com (127.0.0.1)
remote port; tcp 2869(icslap)
So did my additions to the HOSTS file have any effect?
Thanks guys for your help.
I have already set the Media Player to disable.
Was kind of waiting for the next version of K-Meleon.
But I guess I could install it in K-Meleon2.
Not sure how to handle the bookmarks.
Eset advised me to install Google chrome to see if that made a difference.
I followed their instructions and I have to say Google Chrome is a mess.
Uninstalling it is also a mess. The installer can't be uninstalled.
BUT, I backed up before installing Chrome. I reinstalled windows 7
and got rid of Chrome forever.
I use Ccleaner to clean up my cookies and other goodies.

Exclusive: the story behind the TopGear Korea helicopter crash
As told by the team that filmed it
Keen YouTubers, newspaper readers, magazine buyers, and website users may well have noticed this video from our friends at TopGear Korea this week – it involves a slight incident with a Cobra AH-1 helicopter and a Corvette ZR-1, the former crashing quite spectacularly while racing the latter…
A frankly incredible 1.3 crore people have now watched the footage in little more than ten days. So we thought it was high time we gave you the full story behind the clip from the people that were actually there. Not only that, our friends at TopGear Korea have also sent us a never-seen-before version of the final film, which you can watch at the bottom of the page. But first, over to TopGear Korea's Executive Producer, Seunghan Seo…
TGUK: What were you actually filming on the day of the crash?
TGKR: This project had two parts: the first was a power test with a Corvette ZR-1, which was shot in the desert near Arizona at a private airport. The second was a challenge that involved the Corvette racing a Cobra AH-1 helicopter around a makeshift circuit on the runway.
TGUK: What was the first sign that the helicopter was in trouble?
TGKR: While we were at the airport, we learned a helicopter U-turning vertically would be very difficult. But the Cobra pilot was very confident about the maneuver, and was successful during pre-film testing. But when we came to shoot it, the helicopter fell during the U-turn.
Afterwards, once we'd rechecked the video inside the helicopter, we found that there was a loud noise just before the crash – a mechanical failure that we think may have caused the incident.
TGUK: Was the pilot OK afterwards?
TGKR: Right after the crash, the TopGear Korea team ran to the accident site and helped rescue both pilots – we were worried that there might be a risk of explosion so we had to get them out quickly. Thankfully, apart from some minor injuries, they were OK.
TGUK: How did you feel when you saw the crash?
TGKR: I was obviously very concerned. But after I found out they were safe, I was incredibly relieved. Looking back, it's lucky the helicopter didn't fall on the tarmac otherwise there might have been a far greater risk of explosion. Luckily our staff were only around 20 metres away from the site, so we could help the pilots right after the crash.
TGUK: What happened directly after the crash?
TGKR: The aviation research bureau investigated directly after the crash, and the airport was closed until the investigation was over. While all that was happening, we finished our shots in the nearby desert.
TGUK: Have you been surprised at the reaction on YouTube?
TGKR: Well, Gangnam Style's already reached 1,300,000,000 views on YouTube, so I wasn't that surprised! It was also fun to read the comments and controversy over whether it was real or not. Which it was, 100%.

TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW) -- Dogs and cats without a home are certainly not left out of Christmas festivities in Topeka.
The 3rd annual Howliday Adopt-a-thon kicked off at Helping Hands Humane Society on Rochester Road.
The shelter currently has 275 animals, 150 of which are up for adoption. They have dogs, cats and even two rats waiting for someone to take them home.
The goal is to find homes for at least 50 animals in two days. Last year, 65 animals were adopted through the Adopt-a-thon.
The event began with a Christmas dinner for the animals. Dogs munched on grilled hamburger patties and cats nibbled tuna, all sponsored by Carmona Comfort Air, Inc.
While the number of homeless animals is not up this year, Helping Hands stresses the importance of animals finding loving homes, and they hope the Christmas season reminds them of that.
Director of Adoptions Kathy Maxwell said the staff at Helping Hands wants as many animals to find a home, but for people to really think about it so they know what they're getting into.

Walking tour to highlight buildings' histories, people's stories
The Portland Historical Society and Portland Main Street are teaming up to present a walking tour of the 100 block of Kent Street in historic downtown Portland beginning at 10:30 a.m. June 22.
The tour, which will begin at the Portland District Library, will feature both the exteriors and interiors of landmark buildings downtown, and focus on the history of the buildings and the stories of the people who lived and worked in them.
"This tour definitely highlights the immense history that we have," said Main Street Manager Patrick Reagan. "Downtown Portland is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. That puts us in some unique company and shows why we are interested in celebrating our downtown's history."
The downtown historic district was the commercial and social center of Portland from the 1830s until the 1960s, when businesses began moving to the outskirts of the downtown area and drawing commercial traffic with it. The historic district contains examples of late 19th- and early 20th-century commercial architecture found in typical downtowns of Michigan villages.
Highlights of the tour will include the Portland Opera House (circa 1880), the Tin Shop, Webber State Savings Bank building (circa 1870), the 137 Kent St. Building (Walt's On Inn) and the second-story apartment and offices in the Opera Hall Block.
The tour will end with a complimentary coffee and cookie at Cheeky Monkeys Coffeehouse and Bakery.
Some of the buildings' interiors usually are not open to the public, and participants are welcome to bring their cameras for this opportunity.
Marilyn Johnson, a Portland historian who currently lives in Tennessee, plans to be in town for the event, as does Ruth Anne Peake. Ruth Anne and her late husband, David Peake, owned the Peake Building, where the Brick House Grill is now located.
Also joining the tour will be historic architect Kelly Larson from the Michigan Main Street Center and the State Historic Preservation Office.
The walking tour held in March was initiated by the library to dovetail with a book a discussion group was studying. The tour was attended by around 50 people, said event organizer and Portland Main Street Design Committee Chairperson Shelley Perry.
The March tour also resulted in renewed interest in the historical society, as well as historical Portland, said Perry.
"We had numerous requests to host another walk, so we invited our 'tour guide,' local historian Jeanne Bewersdorph, to join us for another round," said Perry.
"Our historical society wants to raise awareness for families of Portland about their heritage and why our town is important ... for people to be aware of the people who lived here, worked here and built this town," said Bewersdorph. "We want to keep that history alive and pass it on to the next generation, and include as many people as we can to participate and tell their stories."
For more information about the walking tour, visit www.portlandmainstreet.org, or call the Portland Main Street offices at 517-647-5027 or Shelley Perry at 616-558-5863.

Site & Forum Code Upgrade
Site & Forum Code Upgrade
Hi all,
It has been quite some time since I did an update. After two months of hard work, today i finally succeeded in finishing and updating the new site & forum code. Although as a visitor you won't see too much difference, for the staff we have taken a big step towards our future goals. We are now able expand the site more easily and loadtimes of the forums, site and game should be decreased with this update. Also, with the new code i will be in charge of the forum code (before this was Chipp) which means i'm always available to add forum features on request.
If you find any bugs or glitches in the site or forum like for example deadlinks, missing or invalid data or functions that are not working the way they should, then report these on the forums in the section 'Forum/Site bugs and glitches'.
Starting today i intend to focus on new features rather then code upgrades and other behind the scene jobs.
So far I have decided to start the development of chat support next monday (after looking at the results of our poll). I will keep you updated on my progress!

Job retention survey for veterans launches
The fact that many veterans ultimately leave their initial post-military jobs is well known, but the reasons behind this attrition, and the ways employers can best increase retention, have yet to be quantified. In order to gather the necessary data, VetAdvisor® and the Institute for Veterans and Military Families at Syracuse (N.Y.) University (IVMF) recently launched a nationwide Veterans Job Retention Survey online.
Click here to take the survey.
The survey focuses on determining the reasons why veterans leave their initial post-military jobs. Because this data has not been previously captured, the survey will provide insight into how organizations can best structure their veteran-centric employee programs. All interested veterans and servicemembers are encouraged to participate in the survey.
"Better understanding the causes for veteran attrition, and programs and policies that can improve retention, aligns with the mission of IVMF," said James Schmeling, IVMF managing director and co-founder. "Our goal is to develop employment-focused programs in collaboration with industry, government, NGOs (non-governmental organizations) and the veteran community, to address the primary economic and public policy concerns of our nation's servicemen and women, such as employee retention and career development."
"We're thrilled to partner with the IVMF in conducting this nationwide survey of veterans and employers," said VetAdvisor® CEO Dan Frank. "Developing programs in support of veteran employees is crucial both for organizations interested in retaining the talent they have invested in recruiting, but also for enhancing the career development paths of veterans entering the workforce."
The Veterans Job Retention Survey is part of a continuing effort by VetAdvisor® to develop programs to support veterans as they transition to civilian life.

Product Description
This handmade rubber stamp of a simple little ampersand is hand carved out of a strong durable vinyl that will give great impressions on a variety of surfaces! All stamps are made to order, so the vinyl carving material may vary in color depending on what I have on hand. Your stamp may be white or pink, both colors of carving material are a great quality rubber.
This shop does not use any of the cheaper cream material that flakes and crumbles away!
The width of the stamp is 3/4" and the height is 3/4".
One of the best things about hand carved rubber stamps is that you are getting a stamp that few other people have, making your projects all that more unique!
You could use this stamp in your scrapbooks, make hand made cards, create gift tags, personalize wrapping paper, add the perfect touch to your art journals....and so much more!
This stamp comes unmounted, I believe that unmounted stamps give the best quality image because of the thickness of the rubber.

You could also mount this stamp onto an acrylic mount with double sided tape!

Dog lost 4 months ago in Cranston sighted in Warwick
On Sept. 24, 2011, Minx, a 5-year-old male dog, went missing. Since then his family, Laurie, Jim and Dylan Horner, have been on a mission to find their missing companion.
"He means the world to us," said Laurie. "My 10-year-old son, Dylan, is heartbroken."
About a month ago, Laurie decided to take her search for her dog into cyberspace and created a Facebook account for the missing pup called "Bring Minx Home." Now the page has 270 followers.
Every day there are new comments, messages and tips that range from well wishes to possible Minx sightings.
Minx was last seen at a Chinese restaurant on Gansett Avenue in Cranston. Jim Horner had taken the dog out for a ride to pick up the family's dinner. When he went into the restaurant, he left Minx in his truck with the window partially down. When he returned, Minx was gone.
"He must have jumped out of the window," said Laurie, who said Minx had never done anything like that before. "He must have seen something."
Laurie doesn't suspect that anyone unlocked the door and stole the dog, but she's not so sure that someone isn't keeping Minx as his or her own now.
"I kept posting on Craigslist under Pets and Lost and Found, but someone kept deleting my posts," she said, speculating that the person who has Minx might be the culprit.
The frustration with Craigslist led Laurie to Facebook, where she's found the support of individuals and animal organizations.
Minx is a 5-year-old neutered male and weighs about 85 pounds. He's a black Husky-Shepherd mix with pointy ears and white markings on his chest.
"When his ears are up, they touch," said Laurie through sentimental tears. "He looks like he's wearing a top hat."
Minx was wearing a red nylon collar with Cranston rabies tags, but no other form of identification. He is not outfitted with an identifying microchip, as some dogs have been in recent years.
Those on the Facebook page have kept their eyes open for a dog that fits Minx's description.
A few weeks ago, Laurie got a phone call that someone had seen a black dog in Providence.
Armed with his cell phone, Jim hopped into his car and hit the road in search of his dog. By the time he arrived, the people who had reported the sighting said the dog had run away.
"He's friendly, but I don't know if he'll go to someone," said Laurie.
The sightings have been an emotional roller coaster for the family.
On Monday, a Warwick resident wrote on the "Bring Minx Home" Facebook page. She said she had seen a dog that resembled Minx near the Warwick Public Library. The Horners said they would check Sandy Lane, but later reported via Facebook that they had "no luck."
In addition to the sightings in Warwick and Providence, the Horners have gotten reports from Johnston, Charleston and Cranston, too.
A few weeks ago they received a Craigslist posting that said a black dog fitting Minx's description had been hit by a car and killed in Cranston.
Laurie contacted the Cranston animal shelters and found the posting to be a hoax.
One of the recent calls she got was from a woman who said her next-door neighbor's dog resembled Minx. They're trying to follow up on that now.
"I hope someone has him because the weather is getting bad," said Laurie. "He's got to be somewhere."
Laurie's son Dylan has been out with his friends to put up flyers and to look for Minx, too.
"The first week we were outside every night with food, squeaking his toys, crying," said Laurie. "We kept going back to the restaurant just expecting him to be sitting there."
The family was so devastated by their missing dog that they adopted a Border Collie puppy from Tennessee. But they say finding Minx is still a priority.
"He was like a brother to my son," said Laurie of Minx. "We pray to St. Anthony every night. I'm not going to stop looking until I find him, alive or dead. I need to know where he is and what happened."
The Horners are offering a reward to anyone who can safely return their dog. If you have any tips on the whereabouts of Minx, call the Horners at 461-6583 or 368-9894.

ong> - Tobias Harris had a career-high 30 points and 11 rebounds to help the Orlando Magic break an eight-game losing streak with a 97-92 victory over the Washington Wizards on Friday night.
Maurice Harkless added 18 points and grabbed nine rebounds, while reserves E'Twaun Moore and Andrew Nicholson scored 15 and 14, respectively, for Orlando.
John Wall led the Wizards with 35 points, nine rebounds and two assists. Martell Webster was the only other Wizard in double figures, scoring 19.
It was not a well-played game by either team -- Orlando shot just 43 percent and Washington only 37 percent -- but the Magic were able to come up with the plays when they needed them.
Orlando led by as many 16 points in the first half, used an 8-0 spurt at the end of the third quarter to go ahead 78-71, and took a 91-84 lead with 3:15 left in the game on a steal and three-point play by Harris.
Harris had another key basket, a 15-foot floater that gave the Magic a 93-88 lead with 1:22 left in the game.
Wall made two free throws to get the Wizards within 93-90, but after the Magic missed, Wall couldn't convert at the other end and the final 20 seconds became a free throw shooting contest.
Harris and Beno Udrih combined to hit four of six from the line to keep the Magic in front. Udrih finished with 10 points and nine assists.
The Magic led 58-46 at halftime after shooting 51.1 percent against almost no defensive pressure. Harris scored 17 points on 7-of-12 shooting, while Harkless had 12 points and six rebounds, five at the offensive end.
Still neither team could get control until the middle of the second period, when the Magic scored eight straight and finished the half on a 23-13 run.
Wall scored 11 of the Wizards 13 points in the last five minutes of the half to help keep Washington within striking distance. He then scored the first six points of the second half as Washington came out with a 13-2 run to cut the deficit to 60-59.
Harris stopped the bleeding with a 3-pointer and the Magic slowly regained control, finishing the quarter on another 8-0 run to lead 78-71.
Washington caught Orlando with two jumpers from Webster and a 3-pointer by Trevor Ariza that made it 78-78 with 8:56 left in the game, but the Wizards could never get the lead.
That was all the Wizards could muster as they couldn't get consistent scoring from anyone other than Wall and Webster. Washington had only 15 assists in the game and turned the ball over 14 times, costing them 21 points.
NOTES: Magic G Jameer Nelson left the game in the first quarter with a sprained ankle and did not return. . Wizards PG John Wall is shooting 51.2 percent from the floor (83 for 162), 58.3 percent from 3-point territory (7 for 12) and 82.4 percent from the free throw line (70 for 85) in his last 10 games. .. Magic C Nik Vucevic missed his fifth straight game with a mild concussion. . Magic C Kyle O'Quinn, subbing for Vucevic, is averaging a double-double (14.5 points, 10.0 rebounds) in his last four games. ... Ariza returned to the lineup after missing three games with the flu.
Magic beat Washington, snap skidUpdated:

"The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter." - Winston Churchill
HTS costs up to $300 a month to operate. We need your help!
i'm legit crying, these noobs wouldn't know--or couldn't amount to such skill, humor, and ability.
continue on with your trivialities
edit: in his name, http://davidmcilwraith.com/
Only talked to the guy a select number of times. But he definitely knew his stuff. And beyond that, he was a good guy.
Archaios was nothing short of a brilliant young man.
He was, when I first joined, one of my major inspirations and guides. He helped me grasp many of the peculiarities of assembly and programming in general. He had a way with helping people who were willing to learn.
But it wasn't just his knowledge and ability, his personality and humor were truly what made him who he was. He was, sadly, plagued with a lot of grief in his life, both externally and internally. It's a small, but significant comfort to know that his pain has ended.
May he rest in peace.
I'm speechless. Those who don't know archaios, you'd never find anyone who was as exceptional or as humorous as he was. Despite of his sufferings in life, archaios remained tough and kept his head held high. R.I.P.
When I first learned of the news it didn't hit me straight away, I'd talk to him on a daily basis discussing security issues, music and even personal issues at times... He had his flaws however he was a genius, Quite possibly the one person who helped me through a lot and taught me so many things.. Despite him being gone and that he will be missed, I take solace in the fact that the hand that he was dealt is over, no more suffering.
Wish I knew the guy. The caliber of those commenting here may not be recognizable to all in the community but you shouldn't take their words lightly.
PS. Nice to see Monica, kiyoura, and Phate still check up on the place. :)
Even though i joined quite recently, I really wished i got to know the guy.
May he Rest in Peace
I have nothing to say but R.I.P
You will be missed from those who knew you and by those who did not from your legacy too.
I wonder if he ever got his money back... At least we still have the cartoon.
I'm deeply moved, R.I.P arch
He won't ever be forgotten, by me at least.
I'm lost with words... he may be gone from us, but memories of him remains with us. printf("Goodbye, archie.");
R.I.P legend!!
Damn, sad news. R.I.P. archaios.

Wow. I used to visit this website and practiced mission here a lot in high school. Its been years since I've visited this website (I am now doing computer science in college and am still learning more to be able to do more meaningful projects with technology) and this is the first post I saw.
I checked out the website, its sad to see such a great person go that has taught so many.
This post was motivating to me to get back into the hackthissite.org community.
I commend archarios in helping so many people learn.
I wish I could have met him I didn't know of him until I read this but it still brings a tear to my eye. RIP
................ this has hit me harder than I'd have thought it would. I just found out today... wtf.
The man wasn't a genius, he was a damn wizard. His code was magical :/

Fan favorite Miro Satan, a playoff hero for the Bruins last spring, has signed a one-year contract with HC Slovan Bratislava with an out clause that would allow him to join an NHL club this season, FoxSports reported today.
Satan's agent, Allan Walsh, confirmed via his Twitter account that the contract Satan signed is a game-to-game deal and that there are four NHL teams interested in Satan's services. It's doubtful that the Bruins, who signed Satan last January, would be one of those teams considering the difficult decisions Boston has to just cut down to the maximum 23 players in time for Saturday's season-opener in Prague.
Satan scored nine goals in 38 regular-season games last season, but exploded for five scores in 13 postseason contests — none more famous than this one, and the ensuing celebration, against Buffalo in Game 6:

We who live in Juneau need to thank my friend Phil Smith for filing an objection, and publicly protesting against, the CBJ approval of the military weapons shooting range now being built here. In response to questioning by CBJ Assembly member Jesse Kiehl, Phil has made us all aware of our need as a community to talk to each other about what this range means to us, and to our town.
In most communities sophisticated enough to issue Conditional Use Permits, Planning and Zoning Commissions are like grand juries. Planning Commissions cannot issue subpoenas on their own, but they can ask people to provide expert opinion, they can do their own research, and they can direct staff to provide information on any issue they want to explore before deciding yes or no on a request for a Conditional Use Permit (CUP). Under the CUPs that I used to work with many years ago, scope is not limited to traffic flow, population density, or relief from building restrictions.
Planning Commissions can set whatever conditions, building restrictions, or allowable uses that are appropriate to their findings relevant to issues arising from a CUP application. I wish the CBJ Commission had requested more information from the applicants and others in this case. Whether any CUP request is ultimately granted, or not, is a matter for the Assembly and Law, not the Planning Commission.
For myself, like Phil, I have owned guns, been in the military, and have fired military weapons on training ranges. In my day they were known as "machine guns." The machine guns then were nowhere near as scary or "effective" (defined as spreading the most amount of lead in the least amount of time) as the automated killing machines (aka assault weapons) on sale, over the counter, today. These are the kinds of weapons the training range owners propose to make available to paying customers for fun shooting.
My son is a police officer and member of a SWAT team. He has shown me the kinds of fully automatic killing machines that are on the streets, and in use by criminals in many communities today. But, in my opinion, more guns and assault weapons in the hands of more private citizens who want to "protect" something, or some body, from ill-defined "threats," will only lead to more crippling wounds and more accidental deaths by gunfire. The Zimmerman case in Florida 14 months ago makes my point.
Florida's "Stand-Your-Ground" law initially protected Zimmerman from arrest and prosecution. A similar law is now being pushed by the majority Republicans in Alaska's Legislature, and needs to be noted here.
These killing machines should never be handled (especially for "fun") by anyone who is not full time military properly trained and authorized to handle them, or a member of a police force with proper training and certification. Without the continuing training in their use and handling, these killing machines - or any gun that kills at a distance for that matter - in the hands of stupid, or violent people can accidently kill and maim our neighbors, our neighbor's children, members of our own families, even ourselves.
In Newtown, Connecticut 4 months ago, the killing was not accidental, and the result in that small town the size of Juneau was terrible. Leaving aside the shooter's mental state, the primary cause of the Newtown disaster, in my opinion, was the too easy availability of military assault weapons and banana clips.
To suggest, as the NRA has demanded in the national news a few days ago, that every school district have a staff member, or two, armed and roaming around school hallways looking for boogey men is nuts.
Who does the NRA actually represent anyway?

Difference between revisions of "Žabljak"
Revision as of 15:39, 21 August 2012
Žabljak is largest town on mountain Durmitor, high mountain in northern Montenegro (2,522 m). Žabljak itself is town at highest altitude in the Balkans, at 1,450 m above sea level. Although being a center of municipality of the same name, it is a small town of some 2,000 inhabitants. The town of Žabljak and the whole municipality with Durmitor, Sinjavina and Tara canyon, make up a very interesting tourist destination.
Get in
By plane
Podgorica, and its international airport, are some 170 km away. There are several daily flights from Belgrade. There are regular flights from Budapest, Zurich, Frankfurt, Ljubljana, Paris, Rome and Vienna.
By bus
Maybe the best way to get to Žabljak, especially for those unfamiliar with roads in northern Montenegro, which are not up to European standard. As of early April 2011, the Žabljak bus station posted the following schedule:
Podgorica-Niksic-Žabljak: 05:55-07:00-09:15; 13:50-15:00-17:30; 15:57-17:20-19:40
Niksic-Žabljak: 07:00-09:15; 10:00-12:15; 10:05-13:10; 15:00-17:30; 16:20-19:40; 18:00-20:15
Pljevlja-Žabljak: 06:45-08:50; 08:00-09:15; 10:00-11:25; 11:20-12:30; 14:55-16:25; 15:15-16:30
Belgrade-Žabljak: 23:30-08:50
Sombor-Novi Sad-Belgrade-Žabljak: 04:45-06:30-08:00-16:00
And leaving Žabljak:
Žabljak-Niksic-Podgorica: 11:25-13:50-14:30; 12:45-15:00-15:50; 18:00-20:20-21:15
Žabljak-Niksic: 07:15-09:35; 16:10-18:20; 16:25-18:25
Žabljak-Pljevlja: 09:30-10:45; 11:00-12:20; 13:10-14:25; 14:00-16:00; 19:25-20:40
Žabljak-Belgrade: 14:00-23:30
Žabljak-Belgrade-Novi Sad-Sombor: 11:00-20:00-21:20-23:10
By car
You can get to Žabljak either by departing the road from coast to Serbia at Mojkovac or take the route Podgorica - Šavnik - Žabljak, the first route being the higher quality road. Either way, those are curvy, mountanious roads that don't permit high speeds and require additional caution. During the winter, when whole area is covered with snow, those unfamiliar with roads should let someone more expirienced and informed get them to Žabljak, as roads might get covered with snow and ice. Driving in this conditions might be a nightmare for someone used to autobahn - standard, but is a piece of cake for local bus, minibus or taxi drivers.
Get around
Žabljak is very small town, so everything is within walking distance. You can get to some of the lakes around the town only by foot - it's untouched nature! However, some chairlifts, skiing pistes etc. are reachable only by car.
Snowboarding is increasingly popular in recent years, as many enthusiast gatherings and competitions are being held at Durmitor.
Žabljak is not really a shopping resort, leave that for coastal towns or Podgorica. It is, however, the right place to buy a genuine Montenegrin healthy food from the locals.
Žabljak has some excellent national cuisine restaurants. Notably, there is "Katun" restaurant on the very shore of Crno jezero, "MB" motel-restaurant, "Momčilov grad" on the Štuoc...
Cold hors d'ouevres include the famous njeguški pršut (smoked ham) and njeguški cheese, pljevaljski chesse, mushrooms, donuts and dried bleak. The main courses specific for the northern mountaineous regionare boiled lamb, lamb cooked in milk, cicvara in fresh milk cream (buttered corn porridge), boiled potatoes with cheese and fresh cream (kajmak).
It might be a good idea to make an order and reserve seats a few hours in advance, as restaurants are small and may be crowded and it might take some time to prepare the courses in traditional way.
Usually the portions of meat are quite large, 300-450g, so if you are not very hungry you can easily share one portion.
Montenegrin quality wine is a must-try. The best known Montenegrin wines are the premium "Vranac", "Pro Corde", "Krstač", "Cabernet", "Chardonnay" and the famous home made Crmničko red wine.
Grape brandy (rakija) "Montenegrin loza", "Prvijenac", "Kruna" or home made grape brandy (lozova rakija, lozovaca) is also great.
There are four major hotels in Žabljak: Planinka, Jezera, Žabljak and Durmitor. Besides these, there are many small motels (MB, Bjeloor...) in and around town, not to mention that almost every local resident is willing to rent a room at affordable price - accommodation in Žabljak is abundant, except around New year's eve, when the place is overcrowded.

I listened to Fairy Tail OSTs and they are good. Vol.1 is even very good, vol.2 seems less fresh and redundant in some parts though. In both vols many slower tracks could be removed w/o any greater loss IMO. Overall feeling is that Yasuharu Takanashi did a great job. Celtic (and even a bit Irish) touch combined with rock fits Fairy Tail well. If you haven't tried these energetic tunes yet, then you should. It maybe won't hit everybody, but this stuff is highly likeable, I tell you.
It's not only my opinion. You can read Burning Lizard's nice review of first OST - I'm mostly agreeing with it.
Here is my TOP15 in track order (~30 mins in total).
01 FAIRY TAIL Main theme
02 Erza no theme | Erza's Theme
03 Mahou Hatsudou | Magic Invocation
04 Dragon Slayer
13 Natsu no theme | Natsu's Theme
26 Salamander
28 Mahou Taisen | Magic Duel
30 Akuma Deliora | Deliora the Demon
31 Titania no Yoroi | Titania's Armor
36 FAIRY TAIL Main theme -Slow ver.-
01 Tetsuryuu -Kurogane- | Iron Dragon
02 Shishi no Seirei | Leo
17 Natsu no Mahou 2 ~Karyuu no Kenkaku~ | Natsu's Magic 2 ~Fire Dragon's Piercing~
23 Erza no Mahou 2 ~Tenrin no Yoroi~ | Erza's Magic 2 ~Heavenly Wheel's Armor~
28 Tokihanatareshi Chikara | Released Power
OPs and EDs are much less interesting, at least ones I heard. Why? Because they lack FT spirit built by BGM, i.e. you can use them in a lot of other animes - they're just typical OPs and EDs. It's double-edged sword, because apparently majority like that kind of music. I not severly dislike it, but I prefer if something is highlighting the show. They are not, IMO.
I have not heard Character Song Collection Vol.1 yet, but Vol.2 is not for me - too sweet (especially Happy part. just like Lucy no theme from OST Vol. 1).

Just listened to FAIRY TAIL Character Song Album Eternal Fellow. Looking forward to see the lyrics.
I feel that the VA had done a great job in singing their respective character songs being in character as such.
Gajeel as expected had the "can't sing" ability. Wendy need some confidence. Happy and Charles have a really cute song (Male-cat and Aye!). Erza gave me a feeling that she is training up her voice for the play again.
Natsu, Gray and Lucy are performing their usual singing capability. I feel Gray's other character song "Frozen Soul" sounds better. I could appreciate Natsu's and Lucy's songs as it is the OP and ED of the OAD and the songs are catchy.

Not sure if Gray would be happy or sad, actually a track called Ice Boy .
Really a ton of great songs for this OST. Definitely Erza vs. Erza was great, though also like Dragon Force, Dokuryuu no Cobra, and Tenshi no Kunou.

Well quite late on this but what the hell.
I like the current OP, it's nice and all but I think I liked previous one more, The Rock City Boy. That one was a lot more catchy
Current ED is not bad but again not quite as good as the previous one.
Kinda surprised I found myself liking both previous OP and ED at the same as it's never happened before with this series.

:O Left alone since 2011.
Anyway ..
Loved the OSTs. There were some really sad and some really hyped up ones. Only two words can describe the 3 OSTs : Unbelievably Epic.
And a couple OPs and EDs that are really good too. Towa no Kizuna & Rock City Boy from the more recent OPs caught my attention +.+ and the current one , I Wish is great too.

I can so see Gajeel and Pantherlily jamming out to Panther's theme - it's freaking awesome. And so it's Mystogun's...0.0.
I seriously went back and re-read 'certain' scanlated chapters with it as BG and the epicness of some of the scenes pierced the heavens...

Fairy tail music is so good, it has all the emotions and the epicness of the series, one important reason why Fairy tail is so awesome is because of it's music
Fairy Tail has without any doubt the best music for me, in so less episodes they have already made 3 volumes and i am guessing that the 4th volume is on it's way because i am hearing some new soundtracks in the anime

Language Learning Strategy Use and Reading Achievement
The current study investigated the differences across the varying levels of EFL learners in the frequency and choice of learning strategies. Using a reading test, questionnaire, and parametric statistical analysis, the findings yielded up discrepancies among the participants in the implementation of language-learning strategies concerning their reading achievement. The participants comprised 307 Iranian BA students doing a general English course at Teacher-Training University of Mashhad. The results suggest that as the learners' reading ability improves, the learners are more inclined to choose strategies to facilitate reading processing, which is reflective of greater autonomy for language learning. Thus, the results imply that appropriate employment of language-learning strategies can foster individual autonomy and hence reduce affective filters to process reading texts in an efficient way. The findings are consistent with previous studies on the inconsistency among learners with different reading ability in employing language-learning strategies and comprehension process. Thus, the findings further support integrating strategy training into conventional teaching approaches to enhance efficacy of reading programs. Through adopting strategic-based instruction, teachers can help learners become aware of available strategies, the way to organize them systematically, and the way they can transfer the strategies to new language learning contexts (Cohen, 2007).

Quick startup guide for Linux
This guide will help you setup a quick and dirty environment with Apache, modwsgi and the Test Manager plugin in a few minutes. Security is based on Apache password file, with basic authentication.
Run every command as root. The example takes into account a freshly installed Debian:
- Download python setup tools from PyPi.
- Compile and install it:
tar xvzf setuptools-0.6c11.tar.gz cd setuptools-0.6c11/ python setup.py install
- Install Trac 0.12.2 using the now available easy_install:
easy_install Trac
- Create the needed directories to host the foo project:
mkdir -p /var/lib/trac
- Create a foo trac project environment:
trac-admin /var/lib/trac/foo initenv
- Create a password file for apache authentication, for example with an "admin" and a "roberto" users:
htpasswd -c /var/lib/trac/foo/conf/passwd admin htpasswd /var/lib/trac/foo/conf/passwd roberto
- Grant the anonymous user TRAC_ADMIN permissions:
trac-admin /var/lib/trac/foo permission add anonymous TRAC_ADMIN
- Run trac through tracd just to see everything worked:
tracd -r --port 8000 /var/lib/trac/foo
- Set trace level to DEBUG in trac, and log to file, using the admin panel. The admin panel can be accessed from Trac's navigation bar.
- Configure apache and wsgi as follows:
'Snippet into apache2.conf:'
WSGIScriptAlias /trac /var/lib/trac/foo/trac.wsgi <Directory /var/lib/trac/foo/apache> WSGIApplicationGroup %{GLOBAL} Order deny,allow Allow from all </Directory> <Location /trac> AuthType Basic AuthName "trac" AuthUserFile /var/lib/trac/foo/conf/passwd Require valid-user </Location>
import os os.environ['TRAC_ENV'] = '/var/lib/trac/foo' os.environ['PYTHON_EGG_CACHE'] = '/var/lib/trac/foo/eggs' import trac.web.main application = trac.web.main.dispatch_request
- Grant everyone 777 on /var/lib/trac:
chmod -R 777 /var/lib/trac
- (Re-)start apache:
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
- Verify trac was up and running, with basic authentication working, using the browser.
- Download the egg files for the TestManagerForTracPlugin from sourceforge and extract the archive:
- Open your browser to the foo trac project, on the admin panel
http://localhost/trac/foo/admin, and install TracGenericClassPlugin from the first egg file. Note: the order in which you install the plugins is important.
- Install the TracGenericWorkflowPlugin the same way. This asks for a database upgrade.
- To do it, open a command console as root and fire the command displayed in the browser. It should be something like the following:
trac-admin /var/lib/trac/foo upgrade
- Restart apache, just to be sure its cache is updated:
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
- Refresh your browser (F5). The trac admin page should show the new plugin in place.
- Install TestManagerForTracPlugin the same way. This asks for another database upgrade.
- From the same command console, as root, fire again the same command as before. The also issue the command to update the documentation, which is displayed at the end of the database update. They should look like the following:
trac-admin /var/lib/trac/foo upgrade trac-admin /var/lib/trac/foo wiki upgrade
- Restart apache. This time is actually required:
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
- Refresh your browser. The trac admin page should show the three installed plugins.
- Click on the Test Manager tab in Trac's top navigation bar to start using the new plugin.

NEW BEDFORD — The Fairhaven High School girls' basketball team got a bit more than they bargained for against a 1-15 New Bedford team Monday night in New Bedford. But in the end, the Lady Blue Devils got big contributions from all around, and with the game on the line in overtime, senior Ashley Brown led the way to a 49-44 win.
The win put the brakes on a three-game losing streak — which came on the heels of a seven-game win streak — and though head coach Jeff Perry and company were hoping for a more convincing win, in regular time, it was a much needed win for the Lady Devils. But Perry said the team still has a lot of work to do before the postseason.
"It's a win, it qualifies us for the tournament, but that's about it," Perry said. "I mean, that's great, buy I hope it's a wake-up call, too. I don't know how many more wake-up calls we need, but maybe one day we're gonna answer the alarm."
New Bedford's Jocelyn Dillard converted on a pair of free throws to tie the game 42-42 with 42.2 second to play in the fourth quarter, and when neither team could knock down the game-winning shot in the final 42 seconds, it was on into overtime.
Kay Mullen gave the Devils the early advantage in overtime with a rebound and put-pack for 44-42. New Bedford quickly tied the game, and it went scoreless for the next minute and a half. Brown broke the scoreless stretch with a steal on the defensive end and a tough drive and two on the offensive end for a 46-44 lead with 0:44 to play.
Brown came up with another steal at the other end to keep New Bedford from getting off a potentially game-tying shot, and then she hit three out of four free throws in the final seconds put it on ice.
"New Bedford's 1-15, but that's not an effort from a 1-15 team, with three games to go before they can pack it in. So, hats off to them. They outworked us at times, and they didn't get down.
"On our end, we come out with a W, but there's just too many inconsistencies, things that weren't happening during the seven-game win streak. I don't know where it came from, and it's my job as coach to figure it out, but there a bunch of things going on that are making me uncomfortable."
While Brown had a clutch performance in overtime and finished with a game-high 20 points, the Devils got key contributions from a number of players, like Mariah Nicholas, who went for 11 points and 16 rebounds, and Kay Mullen, who had nine points and 11 rebounds.
"Mariah's a big talent," Perry said of Nicholas, who was a force in the paint all night. "She put in a lot of work in the off-season, working on her post moves, going to some camps, training and going to the weight room. She committed herself, and it's definitely shown, because she's averaging 14 points a game in the conference this year."
The Devils also got three crucial baskets from the supporting crew when things got hairy in the fourth quarter.
First, Katie Leidhold came off the bench for the first time all night and connected on a short jump shot to tie the game, 37-37, with 5:30 to play. Then, Kiyanna Alfaiate, also coming off the bench, buried a 3-pointer to give the Devils a momentary three-point lead at 40-37. New Bedford came right back with a 3-pointer to tie it again. Leidhold then took a quick seat for starter Brianna Pelton to return to the game, and Pelton knocked down a jumper from the corner for a 42-40 lead with 2:35 to play.
"I gotta give credit to coach Joe (Junior Varsity coach Donald Joseph) for that shot by Katie. He said 'give Katie a shot', and I gave her a shot and she scored. And then I said 'right back at you,' because I brought Pelton back in and she knocked down her first shot. So, he had one and I had one. And Kiyanna played big minutes tonight. She played well on Friday, and I think it carried over a little bit into today.
"And that's good to see, because we haven't gotten consistency out of the bench. We've got good play here and there, but nothing consistent. And that's why our rotation isn't set. Every night it's who gonna show up and give us something."
Fairhaven is now 10-5 overall and 8-5 in the SCC. With Monday night's win, they qualified for the MIAA Division 3 South Sectional Tournament.
Up next, the Lady Devils host Apponequet this Friday night at 6:30 p.m.

Would prefer this not to turn into an 'Arthur sucks' vs. 'he just asked them to do a simple task' echo chamber.
Certainly Flower and Fletcher did England a world of good, while on the other side of the fence Australia's win/loss record in Tests has a quite sobering correlation between the beginning of Simpson and the exit of Nielsen.
Chappell was howled out of his India gig for failing to bond with his team socially and culturally, but even a domestic stalwart like Hesson isn't above skullduggery (your Honour ), and Ottis Gibson hasn't given Windies cricket an overdue kick up the arse.
Over to you.

It was in the section that they did for each conference where they asked three players various questions like "First car you'd buy in the NFL," or "Playstation or Xbox." The most disturbing response was what two of the Big Ten players said when asked for their favorite musician or group. Most of the responses of the other players asked were not surprising, from Kanye West, Jay-Z, Beyonce, to Kenny Chesney. But Iowa's Drew Tate, and Penn State's Dan Connor had me wondering where the kids of today are headed when they responded with Journey and Phil Collins, respectively. Tate can maybe be forgiven, as Journey did see a bit of a retro renaissance in 2005 with "Don't Stop Believing" appearing in South Park, Family Guy, and Laguna Beach, along with being the theme song for the World Series-winning Chicago White Sox.
But Phil Freakin' Collins? He wasn't even cool back when he was popular in the '80s. Connor should be embarrassed - this is a bigger pox on the Penn State program than Curtis Enis. And if that's not bad enough, when asked "One word to describe Paris Hilton," Connor responded with "Uh, classy?"
Sweet Jesus!
That's even scarier than Nebraska's Zac Taylor's response of "Awesome." Because I can think of a lot of words to describe Paris Hilton and "classy" isn't even in the top

Early Tuesday morning, Metta World Peace was awakened to a bizarre scenario. "I'm in my underwear and my son says, 'Hey dad, there's police at the door,'" World Peace said in an interview with The Times after the Lakers beat the Boston Celtics on Wednesday evening. "So I jump out, I'm nervous. I see these police with rifles and scopes. "I'm like, 'What happened?' I don't know what's going on at this point. 'What happened, what happened?' And then the police was like, 'The building is being taken over by guys downstairs.'" Apparently the guys downstairs were three actors in a movie that World Peace's company, Artest Media Group, is producing about life on the streets. Unbeknownst to World Peace, the actors, one of whom World Peace says is his nephew, had decided to rehearse a scene outside of his Westside condo complex the previous evening with a fake shotgun and two fake 9-millimeter guns as props. After the actors finished the scene, they then decided to play with the guns in front of the valet at World Peace's condo complex. The cops were called around midnight, as TMZ first reported Tuesday. When the police arrived, they handcuffed the actors and the director of the movie. World Peace's younger brother, Isaiah, heard the ruckus and went downstairs to investigate, but he apparently didn't have identification on him, and the police handcuffed him, too. The men explained the situation to the police, who then knocked on World Peace's door to verify their story. "At first when I seen the police, I was like, 'What the hell is going on?'' World Peace said. "I just got finished watching 'Zero Dark Thirty' or whatever that movie is. I'm like, 'I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming. Is there a terrorist in the building? Do y'all need my help?'" After a brief conversation with the police, World Peace put on his Cookie Monster pajamas and accompanied them outside. World Peace was shocked by what he saw.
