For those of you that know me, you know that I always set aside this date to honor those most affected by the attacks on America on Tuesday, September 11, 2001.
I do so by re-posting something I wrote in 2007. As someone that has spent the past 26 years of my life serving my country and my community, it is important to me to do this every year as my way of paying my respects to those innocent lives lost, to the families, friends and all who were a witness to such a horrific tragedy, and to the personal sacrifices of every hero that went above and beyond the call of duty and gave their all.
Tomorrow, we'll get back to football. But today, again a Tuesday, we remember.
Here's my 2007 post:
Six years ago today marked a defining moment in United States history. There isn't a person that was older than about 7 on that day that cannot remember what they were doing when they heard the news. There isn't a person alive that watched the horrific images on television or that witnessed the events firsthand that will ever be able to forget. 2,972 innocent people were killed that day. 24 are still considered missing. 2,977 innocent people were killed that day. 24 are still considered missing. Approximately 2,763 of those who died were Americans. 209 were citizens of other nations. Another 19 killed were the terrorists that thought they could bring a nation to it's knees. But they were wrong. They thought we would cower. They thought we were weak. They were very, very wrong.
Lest we never forget the timeline of the events of that fateful Tuesday morning:
7:58 a.m. – United Airlines Flight 175 departs Boston for Los Angeles,
carrying 56 passengers, two pilots, and seven flight attendants. The
Boeing 767 is hijacked after takeoff and diverted to New York.
7:59 a.m. – American Airlines Flight 11 departs Boston for Los
Angeles, carrying 81 passengers, two pilots, and nine flight
attendants. This Boeing 767 is also hijacked and diverted to New York.
8:01 a.m. – United Airlines Flight 93, a Boeing 757 carrying 38
passengers, two pilots, and five flight attendants, leaves Newark, N.J.,
for San Francisco.
8:10 a.m. – American Airlines Flight 77 departs Washington's
Dulles International Airport for Los Angeles, carrying 58 passengers,
two pilots, and four flight attendants. The Boeing 757 is hijacked
after takeoff.
8:46 a.m. – American Flight 11 from Boston crashes into the North
Tower at the World Trade Center.
9:03 a.m. – United Flight 175 from Boston crashes into the South
Tower at the World Trade Center.
9:45 a.m. – American Flight 77 crashes into The Pentagon.
10:05 a.m. – The South Tower at the World Trade Center collapses.
10:10 a.m. – A large section of one side of The Pentagon collapses.
10:10 a.m. – United Flight 93 crashes in a wooded area in
Pennsylvania, after passengers confront hijackers.
10:28 a.m. – The North Tower at the World Trade Center collapses.
As we watched the events unfold, stunned and in disbelief, countless acts of heroism and bravery were being demonstrated by so many. Those unselfish acts saved thousands of lives. Remembering all those who died that day is our only way of truly honoring them. Statues and memorials will mark their heroism and sacrifices forever. But the true honor is in the heart of each and every one of us who lives on. That is something no terrorist can take away from us.
And that is something they couldn't have planned for.
The two 110-story World Trade towers were brought down. Another building in the complex collapsed from the damage later in the day. Several other WTC buildings, and a few buildings in the surrounding area, were destroyed or damaged. The Pentagon in Washington was also damaged. But the most damage, the damage that cannot be calculated in monetary amounts, was in the hearts of millions of Americans and others from foreign countries that were affected by these tragic events. Over time those wounds may heal, but the scars will be there forever. Lives will be rebuilt. Buildings will be rebuilt and repaired. But the scars will never go away. They are imbedded in our memories and in our hearts. And we are stronger because of it.
Those responsible could not bring us down. They only made us stronger. They brought a nation together, when they thought they could break us. They thought we would tremble with fear, only to see us stand up with courage. They thought we could be intimidated, only to see us fight back. When word of the attacks on the twin towers made it to the passengers on United Airlines Flight 93, they fought back. While the plane came crashing to the ground in a field in southwest Pennsylvania, the terrorists' plans for that flight went crashing down with it. They might have hit 3 of their 4 planned targets, but they couldn't plan for the courage and determination of the men and women on that plane. When they thought we would lay down and be victims, we stood up and made victims out of them.
I honor all those who died that day. For the heroes and the victims, for the families, co-workers, friends and loved-ones, I will not forget the events of that day. I will never forget. America will never forget.
May we also remember on this day all those who have given the awesome and ultimate sacrifice defending our nation and our freedom and all the soldiers who are serving here and abroad as we go about our daily lives. While we're enjoying our Lattes, Pizza, football and high-speed internet, let us not forget to take a moment out of each day to honor them…
God Bless America!

Description of Dictyosteliida
provided by BioPedia
The trophic stage is amoeboid and aflagellate, possessing filose pseudopodia during locomotion. In culture, once the food supply is exhausted, the amoebae can aggregate under the influence of chemoattractants to form a pseudoplasmodium. The pseudoplasmodium is an aggregation of individual amoebae that differentiate into pre-stalk and pre-spore cells. The pseudoplasmodium may or may not migrate extensively, but ultimately undergoes soro-genesis, during which a stalk tube is formed by the stalk cells which, in the Dictyosteliidae become incorporated into the stalk tube. The remaining amoebae go to the top of the stalk tube, secrete a wall and become spores. The mass of spores is referred to as a sorus. A slime sheath covers the entire sorocarp. Under appropriate conditions, amoebae of some species can fuse to form a diploid cell that becomes a macrocyst, wherein meiosis occurs.

20th Century Fox is going to be releasing an adaptation of James Dashner's The Maze Runner this fall and some amazing new images have hit the web!
Page to Premiere exclusively shared seven new images that give us a closer look at life in the Glade. Several images feature Dylan O'Brien as Thomas and show us part of his character journey. Through these images, we also get a glimpse at the relationships Thomas has with other characters:
For those unfamiliar with the story, here is an official synopsis (via IMDbPro): "Thomas (O'Brien) awakens in a dilapidated elevator with no memories except for his own name. The elevator deposits him into a strange place called The Glade – a large outdoor space surrounded on all sides by 150 foot walls of solid stone, and inhabited by 50 other boys who have lived there for the past 2 years all with no memory of how they got there or who sent them. Every morning the walls move apart to allow the boys out of the Glade and into the enormous and complex MAZE that stretched for miles and miles with no clear end or escape. At night the walls seal the boys inside the Glade and protect them from the vicious Grievers – insect like creatures who prowl the maze and attack anybody unfortunate enough to get stuck in it overnight.
The maze is constantly shifting, awe-inspiring, and so far, unsolved. The Gladers only hope of escaping lie in the hands of elite Maze Runners who search the shifting maze for an exit each day. When the elevator makes an unscheduled delivery of the first girl (Teresa) in the Glades history, everything is thrown into chaos. Together, Thomas and Teresa (Kaya Scodelario) must embark on a quest to solve the riddle of the maze and reveal the chilling secret of who brought them there, and why."
The Maze Runner was directed by Wes Ball and also stars Thomas Brodie-Sangster, Will Poulter, Ki Hong Lee, Blake Cooper, Aml Ameen, Chris Sheffield, and Patricia Clarkson. Will you be seeing Maze Runner when it is released on September 19?

New Pressure Mapping Technology Featured in WOUNDS Study on Reducing Occurrence of Bed Sores
DALLAS, TX--(Marketwire - Feb 13, 2013) - New research published in WOUNDS, the most widely read, peer-reviewed journal focusing on wound care and wound research, demonstrates the potential to improve care for patients vulnerable to hospital-acquired pressure ulcers by using Wellsense's MAP™ System, the first-ever continuous bedside pressure mapping system. The results of the study, "Pressure Map Technology for Pressure Sore Patients: Can We Handle the Truth?" published by Dr. Matthew Pompeo, a Thoracic and General Surgeon specializing in complex wounds, suggest that pressure mapping technology has the potential to reduce the overall incidence of pressure ulcers, commonly known as bed sores, by 50-60%.
"Pressure ulcers, which most health care professionals believe are largely preventable, remain a major problem, in terms of both human suffering and cost to the healthcare system," said Dr. Pompeo. "Even with increased awareness of this issue, the number of pressure ulcers reported to Medicare increased 80% from 1993 to 2006. This pilot study demonstrated the potential of exciting new pressure mapping technology to assist caregivers in proving patient care."
The study highlights a trial of the MAP System with 43 patients with pressure ulcers at a Long Term Acute Care Facility. Using the MAP System, the caregiver staff was able to achieve a 63% decrease in "damaging time," the amount of time after two hours without pressure reduction, to vulnerable skin tissue.
The MAP System's pressure sensing mat is made of an intelligent textile, which constantly measures pressure from thousands of discrete points. The variations in pressure across a patient's body are depicted on a monitor, using a color scheme to help caregivers visualize high (red) to low (blue) pressure points, which enables them to easily identify and minimize areas of high pressure. The MAP System serves as an educational tool for caregivers by providing live, visual feedback as they reposition patients. One experienced Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation physician specializing in wound care commented that the system pinpointed when even subtle changes to patient positioning reduced pressure, and were often not what their experience would have suggested.
The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality estimates 2.5 million people in the US develop pressure ulcers per year, 60,000 of whom die from complications. There is more than a half million US hospital admissions per year where pressure ulcers are either the primary or secondary diagnosis. The treatment of pressure ulcers costs the US healthcare system approximately $11.5 billion each year. The incremental cost of extended hospitalizations due to HAPUs is up to $120,000 per ulcer. Medicare has deemed HAPUs as a 'never event' and will not pay for these incremental costs.
"If pain is the fifth vital sign, turning and pressure reduction may be the new sixth vital sign for wound patients, and this technology makes it possible to monitor it," continued Dr. Pompeo. "Pressure obviously cannot be observed or measured with the naked eye. Continuous pressure mapping has the potential to reduce the physical suffering and financial burden caused by pressure ulcers."
About the MAP System
The MAP System is the first-ever, clinically proven, continuous bedside monitoring system that detects and depicts the variations in pressure across a patient's body, to aid in the prevention of hospital acquired pressure ulcers. Used on any existing bed, the MAP System enables caregivers to visualize real time pressure distribution data to guide effective patient repositioning. The MAP System's live, color feedback empowers caregivers to easily identify early warning signs of risk to patient safety and has a demonstrated ability to improve upon a facility's pressure ulcer prevention program efforts.

Bears ready to travel to Colorado
BERKELEY -- California head football coach Jeff Tedford said today that redshirt freshman wide receiver Kaelin Clay will indeed not travel with the team on Friday morning's flight, as the team flies into Denver before facing Colorado in Boulder.
"Kaelin is not making this trip. He didn't practice today. He's trying to take care of his academic issue," Tedford said on Thursday morning.
Click Here to view this Link.The issue is not eligibility-related, but is rather an internal matter, one that is frustrating for Tedford, particularly because Clay is perhaps the only true home run threat in the receiving corps, speed-wise.
"It is, especially after he got hurt the first day of camp, so he's been on the rehab thing the whole time, and we just found out about an academic issue this week," Tedford said. "We've got to get that clarified and rectified, hopefully."
While Clay may be left behind, true freshmen wide receivers Maurice Harris and Bryce McGovern will make the trip, and, outside of the top four wide outs -- Keenan Allen, Marvin Jones, Michael Calvin and Coleman Edmond -- will be the ones most likely to get into the rotation.
Not making the trip will be Jackson Bouza. Though the possession receiver has been catching the ball better with one hand than most people can with two since returning from a broken finger, he is still not game-ready.
Of course, those won't be the only freshmen to be making their first true road trips. Redshirt freshman quarterback Austin Hinder will be returning to his home state, and after practice was very excited to be going, saying that, for him, the altitude wouldn't be a problem. During his days at Steamboat Springs High, he played against Gunnison, at an elevation of 7,700 feet above sea level.
On defense, the Bears will bring true freshmen Jalen Jefferson, Brennan Scarlett, Mustafa Jalil, Viliami Moala, Chris McCain, Cecil Whiteside, Avery Sebastian, Kameron Jackson and Stefan McClure.
Defensive coordinator Clancy Pendergast said that the addition of the fast-developing freshmen has helped to shore up depth.
"We wwant to see those outside linebackers play, and along the defensive line, we've got some young guys that, I think can come in and contribute, and in the secondary, as well. I've never been afraid to play younger players, and if these guys can show they can help us win football games, they're going to get an opportunity to play."
Whiteside -- along with several others -- will be progressively played more and more as he and the rest of the youngsters get their feet wet.
"Cecil's a developing player, and I think the strength of his game is probably his athleticism, in terms of rushing the passer, and I think he exhibited some of that last week," Pendergast said. "We're excited about some of the progress he's made, but he needs to continue to be a little bit more consistent in some of the things we're asking him to do."
Providing some experience in the secondary - and racking up five hits last week for the fourth-most on the team - is senior free safety D.J. Campbell, who, along with senior strong safety Sean Cattouse, has shored up the middle of the defensive backfield.
"I've really liked D.J. since I've been here," Pendergast said. "Really, at the end of camp last year, he and Chris Conte battled in camp for the starting job at one of the safety positions, and they both were fairly inconsistent in camp, but really Chris was just a little more consistent than D.J. was, so we went with Chris and Chris just got better and better every week and D.J. never really got an opportunity to unseat him. So, The way D.J. played in the first game doesn't surprise me. He sees the big picture, he's very athletic, very smart football player. He's one of those guys you only have to tell something once to, and he gets it. That's a big plus for him, and he just needs to play."
Pendergast said that Cattouse -- who had missed practice with a concussion -- was a full-go on Thursday and will play on Saturday. There will also not be any changes to the rest of the starting defensive lineup, though outside linebacker Ryan Davis will see more time in the base package behind starter Dan Camporeale.
McCain will see time in obvious passing downs.
"He'll be rolling in there," Pendergast said. "He's another guy that's got tremendous upside and he'll be out there in more obvious-type passing situations and he's going to be able to continue to rush the passer."
Another player who will see a lot of development time in the field will be Moala.
"I think every week he's going to play more," Pendergast said. "He played last week on field goal block and then we got him in there a few reps, but he's a guy that we've talked about, and every week we're just going to kind of -- I don't know if 'spoon-feed' is a good way to put it -- but we're going to use a little bigger spoon and let him play a little more every week."
DeAndre Coleman will likely see more time at defensive end as the season progresses.
"He's doing well," Pendergast said. "He's going to continue to play a little bit more. I like the things I see out of him. He's a big, physical guy that gives us a presence out there. He's definitely another guy that we've targeted that we want to get on the field a little bit more. The biggest concern with him is his consistency, and we've had conversations about that. He's made a lot of strides this last year, but he still needs to continue climbing that mountain."
-- Last week's staring fullback Will Kapp was on the sidelines on Thursday, along with Trajuan Briggs, Darren Ervin and Mike Manuel. Ervin looked to be recovering from an unspecified injury quite well, running effortlessly during passing drills. Kapp will travel, but is questionable for the game after sustaining a concussion.
"He's going to get checked today and tomorrow and we'll see," Tedford said.
If Kapp can't go, John Tyndall will start at fullback, with Nico Dumont -- who's seen his workload vastly increase this week -- in the No. 2 slot, followed by David Aknin.
-- The punters, kickers and longsnappers worked out on grass during practice, as they have during the week to prepare for the tight turf at Folsom Field in Boulder.
"They kick on grass every day," Tedford said. "They go to Evans [Diamond], they may go to Golden Bear [Field], there's different places, depending on what the schedule's like. Just find grass anywhere we can find it."
-- It has been Tedford's policy that tailbacks who fumble tend to spend more time on the sidelines than in the backfield. Despite starter Isi Sofele's two fumbles last week, and another fumble that was negated by a dead ball penalty, Sofele looks to be in no danger of losing his spot to No. 2 back Covaughn DeBoskie-Johnson or C.J. Anderson, at least for the moment.
"No. If it were to continue, then we would put him down," Tedford said. "Couldn't really tell what happened in the end zone down there at the beginning. I think he wwas trying to get back out of the end zone and looked like he jumped to get out. It was hard to tell, really, what happened down there. There was a whole bunch of things going on, but, yeah, if putting the ball on the ground continues to be an issue, then that's unacceptable. That can't happen."
-- Standouts during practice were Hinder - who came out firing very well - as well as McGovern and Harris, who each showed good snap in change of direction.
-- Both Edmond and Allen made nice one-handed grabs during positional work, with Allen playfully zinging the ball right back at wide receivers coach Eric Kiesau. Overall, there was a more jovial mood at Witter Rugby Field than at the rest of practices this week.
"Good focus, a lot of energy today," Tedford said. "Thursdays are typically like that. As you draw closer to the game, Thursdays are always up-tempo, take the pads off, get ready to go, a lot of energy type thing."
-- Freshman tailback Brendan Bigelow looked to be continuing his progress, getting quicker during passing drills. He showed smooth acceleration and adjustment to the ball in flight, as did tight end Richard Rodgers.

|English Subtitle:
This is a modern era and at the same time, it is an era for creations. There have been lots of stories about young people who have built up their own businesses. Yet, to be as outstanding as Shu Li, a young guy brimming with talent, there is after all a small number of people like him on the business market today. The products that he designs and also personally a spokesperson for, becomes a fashionable and popular mark. The franchise shops also brings to him all the wealth. This arrogant guy with a big family fortune becomes the idol that every girl dreams about and the guy that every girl chases after. Yet what is the famous Shu Li seeking and wishing for?
Tian Zhen is just like her name. She has an enthusiastic, rebellious, genuine personality and doesn't care about the little things in life. She, who likes drawing/painting and racing cars, have never thought that she would become a famous artist. Based on the pampering from her father and the superior environment that she grew up in, it produces her unrestricted, independent and strong temperament. Towards her, there is nothing her father could do. Tian Qing is very sensitive. An attentive and obedient daughter. Seeing her sister's rebellious nature, Tian Qing is even more obedient toward her father's words. She believes that loving her father is not only just filial; but it is also to understand obedience. As a result, she gets overprotected by her father. A girl who doesn't know the happenings in the world outside. Besides, Tian Qing shows exceptional performance in all aspects of things and gets the deep love from her father. Because their mother passed away early, the two sisters' relationships are strangely very close. Especially Tian Zhen, who is the elder sister. Even though the sisters' age are close to each other, yet Tian Zhen has always been very caring toward her younger sister. Because before her mother passed away, Tian Zhen promised her mother that she would take good care of her younger sister.
Tian Zhen's interest is in racing cars. When she is busy at the racing track with her car racing, her younger sister, Tian Qing, is busy with her university dance society's graduation performance. Tian Qing is studying designing. She wants wholeheartedly to use what she learned to become a famous designer one day. She, who regards Shu Li as her idol, proceeds to Shu Li's company to apply for the position of assistant designer. Yet she came with hope and left with disappointment. Shu Li tells her: "Your level has still not reached my standard yet. Perhaps you could come and try again in a couple of years!" Tian Zhen, who accompanied her younger sister to apply for the position, even though she and Shu Li have met once before, didn't know that this "humble" guy in her eyes is actually her younger sister's idol. Knowing about her younger sister's profound feelings and regarding the fact that Tian Qing hasn't been employed, Tian Zhen is outraged by the injustice!
Even though she didn't get the job, yet Tian Qing is still very happy at the prospect of her upcoming graduation from college. As a result of her father's strict upbringing, that is why she asked that Tian Zhen give her a very different graduation present. Her request is for Tian Zhen to bring her to a Pub that she has never been to before and let her have a happy time. This little girl that has been protected by her father since young wants to come out and see the world now! Even though Tian Zhen feels that she is disobeying her father's rules, but she couldn't bend Tian Qing's wish and agreed to her request!
The two sisters make up an excuse to hide it from their father and headed off to the Pub where the young people gathered, having a wonderful night out. Who knew that the pure Tian Qing would catch the eye of a bad youngster at the site. He quietly follows her to the parking lot and takes the opportunity to rob her. Under their struggle, even though Tian Zhen relied on her wit and courage to save her sister from the situation, yet it cause the two sisters to come in contact with this horrifying experience…
As a result of the economy in a recession plus the business being in a bad shape, their home "Xin Yuan" and the gallery has to be sold to someone else and each day, they must pay interest so that they can manage with much difficulty to continue on. Owing to the fact that his wife died early, he who loves his daughters, he didn't want his two daughters to be worried about the family so he deliberately hide the facts from them and solely takes the burden on his own shoulders… And when the debtors can't get the money that they loaned out, they announced that they would do something harmful to Tian Zhen and Tian Qing…
Shu De, who is distressed with all the debts and also worrying about his daughters' safety, when he brings the two girls back, he started having misunderstandings toward Tian Zhen and believes that Tian Zhen got into trouble again. Tian Zhen was resentful of her father's punishment and started arguing with him. Shu De, who couldn't tell his daughter all that he is going through and having a heart disease all along, his illness worsens even more.
Tian Qing injured her ankle while trying to stop the bad youngster from harming her elder sister. The following day is the dance performance, the guests all gather together and Shu Li is within the crowd too. Tian Qing is on the stage and extremely excited but Tian Qing fell on the stage. Tian Qing is sorry at herself for the mishap. Tian Zhen comforts her and also apologizes for Tian Qing's mishap, believing that she is the one that is responsible for Tian Qing's mishap. Shu De hears the two sisters' conversation and is extremely angry. He feels that it was Tian Zhen who caused her sister the mishap and demands that Tian Qing immediately returns back to their home "Xin Yuan" the next day.
Returning home, Shu De, whose anger has still not disappeared yet, is dissatisfied with Tian Zhen's behavior. He reprimanded Tian Zhen and caused Tian Zhen to feel wronged. Tian Zhen is upset and feeling sad, goes back to her room. When she receives her good friend, Xiao Man's phone call, Xiao Man knows that Tian Zhen's mood is not good and asked Tian Zhen to come out and talk. Tian Zhen couldn't refuse Xiao Man's good intentions and slipped out of her room to the café near Xiao Man's home to chat. Tian Zhen has turned on the music in her room and at the same time, the wires caught on fire. The fire inside Tian Zhen's room rapidly started spreading and couldn't be controlled. Shu De, who is in a deep sleep, is choked awake by the dense smoke. He frantically gets out of bed to check it out. He discovers the fire coming from Tian Zhen's room. He wakes up Tian Qing and tells her to run outside. He then runs into Tian Zhen's room thinking to save Tian Zhen. In his panicking state, Shu De has a heart attack and fell unconsciously onto the floor.
Tian Zhen and Tian Qing are chatting and watches as the whistling fire trucks pass by one by one. The two of them were curious and went forward to see what the excitement is all about. Who knew that there was an accident at home. When they arrive at the fire scene, that's when they find out that their father has perished in the fire.
Encountered with the abrupt accident of her father's death, Tian Zhen contains her pain and sorrow and tells Tian Qing. From now on, they will hold on to their parents love, two sisters helping each other out, and continue to live on strongly! To one's surprise, Tian Qing criticizes Tian Zhen for her negligence and causing the death of their father. No matter how Tian Zhen tries to explain, Tian Qing, who is deeply hurt at the lost of her father, misunderstands and would not listen to any explanations. She says that she doesn't want to see Tian Zhen again and runs away from home…
Finding out that her younger sister has ran away, Tian Zhen anxiously goes all around trying to find her whereabouts. Not only did Tian Qing turn her cell phone off, but she also borrowed her classmate, Zhi Zhi's home to live, deliberately hiding her whereabouts… That day, Tian Zhen heard the doorbell ringing and thinks that Tian Qing has changed her mind and returned home. Who knew it was actually people from the loan company coming for a visit — telling her that this Xin Yuan and the gallery has been sold off when her father was alive. Now they have to sell it to the new owner and orders her to move out of Xin Yuan within the limited time.
These shocks and unforeseen events are happening one right after the other, causing Tian Zhen to be unable to accept this fact. She headed for the lawyer's office to understand the situation and carelessly gets bumped into on the staircase by Shu Li, who has just bought Xin Yuan. She fell down the stairs and broke her leg. Shu Li sends her to the hospital and a cast is placed on her leg. After Shu Li pays for the bill and sends Tian Zhen home, he thought that his responsibility is finished and could leave. Yet, Tian Zhen, because of the inconvenience of her movements, put forth many requests. She wants this guy that bumped into her to help her prepare enough food and drinks for her. Shu Li, who has always been above others, being that this is the first time that he is being pointed to do this and do that by a girl, he is feeling very unwilling in his heart. But due to the fact that she is injured, he was forced to do it… Finally, being able to get away with much difficulty, walking out the front door, Shu Li finds out that this is the house, Xin Yuan, that he has bought!
Even though it was hard for her to accept the fact that Xin Yuan has been sold, but Tian Zhen still left a message on Tian Qing's cell phone with the message…
Shu Li moves into Xin Yuan and very impolitely demands that Tian Zhen move out. Tian Zhen doesn't want to give up and leave this home which at one time is where she happily grew up. At the same time, she is worried about when Tian Qing comes back, there won't be a home for her to return to. For this reason, no matter how Shu Li tries to hurry her or even mock her for lolling around, Tian Zhen would stubbornly and firmly guard this home… And Tian Qing, even though she doesn't understand her elder sister, but home is still home. When she hears the message she stealthily returns back to Xin Yuan. When she almost arrives at the front door, she meets up with a guy from the flower shop that is delivering flowers. Mistakenly, she thought that it was Tian Zhen who ordered the flowers. Unknowingly, in fact, it was Jia Ling who sent the flowers for the purpose of celebrating Shu Li's move to a new home. Tian Qing thought that this was a lie of Tian Zhen's to deceive her to come home and becomes even more resentful!
Under the grounds of lolling around, being persistence and trying to win other's sympathy, Shu Li agreed to let her stay in Xin Yuan. However, the condition is that she will have to be his servant — Tian Zhen suddenly turns from a rich, pampered girl into a maid that attends a young master. Even though it feels wrong in every way possible, yet she would be able to stay and guard Xin Yuan. She'll be a servant then!
With her injured leg still unhealed and propped up on crutches, Tian Zhen started her career as a maid. Due to the fact that she doesn't understand Shu Li's habits, she would frequently get into trouble and cause Shu Li to be angered. Master Shu Li, who has always been a bit egotistic and arrogant, meeting up with this proud and reckless maid, not only did he not become soft with her but he retaliated, a tooth for a tooth and one revenge for another revenge. In the same house where these two people lives, there are fights and arguments everyday…
Having always been protected by her father, being a rich girl and not having to worry about anything, acting as she pleases, nowadays, for Xin Yuan, Tian Zhen would even be a maid. How else can she not yield? Tian Zhen recalls her talent in painting/drawing, not only did she accepted a publishing house's drawing job, but she also helped the gallery to copy a famous painter's oil paint. She works constantly day and night. Shu Li, who never looked highly on money, concluded that she is a girl that worships money. Tian Zhen doesn't hide her frankness — She has a dream, hopes that one day, she would be able to buy Xin Yuan back, "I'm waiting for that day… if there is that day", and just like the way they usually get along, Shu Li is very happy to accept her challenge!
Running away from home, with no family members to control, is like a bird that left the cage and could fly anywhere! Tian Qing doesn't have much money left on her, relying on a few credit cards, she doesn't have to worry about having no money to use. She searches to rent a room, selects and buys her furniture, decorates the little nest that belongs to herself. She wants to live independently and prove that she is not the girl that doesn't know the affairs of the world as Tian Zhen says she is. Full with longing, she throws herself in the direction of a new life and future… Yet, her first step at finding a job is not that easy, but it didn't discourage her. Her credit cards temporarily allows her to be unbothered by reality. And this young heart is not fearful and doesn't understand that down the journey of life, the unknowns are not as peaceful and happy as in the dreams…
Getting along with each other is really very subtle. Tian Zhen and Shu Li, who are like fire and water, after going through a period of time of living together, even though they argue continuously, yet they gradually started understanding each other — Tian Zhen feels that Shu Li has his strong points and Shu Li starts feeling that Tian Zhen does have her own cute side… but when she is in her hateful state, she still gets on his nerves! This day, when Tian Zhen is cleaning up the room, she accidentally damaged a jewelry of Shu Li's. After Shu Li discovers this, he got angry and after making Tian Zhen pay for the damage, he left angrily.
It was only an object that is not worthy of much money, threw such a huge temper, he is simply being difficult! Tian Zhen also becomes resentful! Wonder how much it costs to fix this thing? In order to save money, Tian Zhen decides to try it herself!
Shu Li is getting himself drunk at the Pub. This jewelry brings back some deep memories. It represents his failed love relationship and it was also because of this relationship that caused him to fly from France back to Taipei, becoming a cold, arrogant guy. Using disdainful, mocking eyes to look at all the girls that circle around him, he doesn't have any feelings at all… In the eyes of the people on the outside, they would see him as a playboy. This night, when Tian Qing sees her idol and a girl that he just met at the Pub, holding onto each other and leaving, she felt really bad. Did the status of her idol in her heart disappear? No! Tian Qing really wishes that she is the girl that is being held onto his side — even though she can't become his girlfriend, just as long as she can get close to him, see him frequently that is also good, also good…
After Shu Li leaves the Pub, he immediately dumps the girl that is holding onto him. He doesn't need girls to be running into his embrace, doesn't need one night stands, and a love that could cause fireworks has already extinguished in the past… just like this damaged jewelry, it has become a regret that cannot be made up… Returning home from the bar, Shu Li falls on the bed and goes to sleep. Tian Zhen calls him but he wouldn't wake up. She could only do her duty to take off his shoes and cover him with the blanket. Hmph! If it wasn't because she is a maid, she would have thrown this damn fellow, who makes one mad, out the door! The following day, Shu Li wakes up and sees this jewelry, he immediately goes to find Tian Zhen, who was startled by this silent and non-talkative attitude. Tian Zhen hurriedly tells him "If you don't like the way I fixed it, then I'll take it to the shop to have it fixed!" Who knew that Shu Li would actually say some astonishing words. He believes that Tian Zhen possesses the talent for designing and she might as well go to his company to work. He is willing to promote her from a maid to an assistant designer — Ha Ha ~~ I don't wish to see you, this guy, from morning till night every day, Tian Zhen said. She tells him that she won't accept his "promotion!"
In order to get close to Shu Li, Tian Qing goes to Shu Li's franchise of jewelry shops to work as a salesperson. However, she is disappointed! She's been working for a couple days now and has never saw Shu Li coming in. Asking her good friend and also co-worker, Zhi Zhi, she finds out that Shu Li rarely shows up. It is always his assistant, Jia Ling, who comes to inspect. Tian Qing is really envious of Jia Ling. She could be so close to Shu Li. Yet, Jia Ling, who has always had a secret crush on Shu Li, even though she is Shu Li's competent assistant, she has also dropped him lots of hints repeatedly but he has never made any comments!
Going to work everyday, hoping that her idol will show up, startled to find her existence, but she returns home with disappointment day after day… Tian Qing started to feel depressed and lonely. That day Tian Qing meets up with some sort of a driver and Chen Wei happens to pass by and help her out of danger. When Tian Qing goes to the convenience store around the corner to buy some things, only then did she know that the youngster who had helped her the other day works at this store. Like many other working girls, this store gradually becomes the place where she solves her problem of her three meals a day. Each time that Chen Wei hands Tian Qing the porridge that is heated up by the microwave, there would be a warmness that comes from the hands causing a warmness to temporarily flare up in the heart too…
Chen Wei wants to speak a few more words with her, know more things about her, but each time that he sees her he would get red in the face with the heart beating faster and he would hurriedly hide away. Yet, he couldn't help but show care and concern towards her…
Tian Zhen is not willing to accept Shu Li's promotion to be his assistant designer but it was also because of this that gave rise to her interest in designing jewelry. Therefore, when the publishing house's editor, Xiao Man's birthday comes along, Tian Zhen made a jewerly as a birthday present. When she sees the startled delight of Xiao Man's expression, Tian Zhen was extremely happy herself! Hey! It was one in a million. The thing that she designed by her own hands, not only was it loved by her friend, but it also helped her save the money from buying a gift. Money should not be casually wasted. If she wants to buy Xin Yuan back again, she would need an astronomical amount!
Being able to make one's dream come true is a way to prove one's ability! After all his hard work, Shu Li finally wins the purchase order of Italian buyer, Mr. Avalon. This purchase order that was not easy to come by, the important thing is not that it increases their achievement again, but it is his father. His father is the shadow in Shu Li's heart. He, who is an only son, after having a father/son conflict, he goes back to Taiwan solely for his own development. The purpose is to prove that even without relying on his father, he could still start his own business!
Yet, Shu Han Ji won't let his son go so easily. Shu Li is the heir that he educated all by himself. He will definitely not fly out the palm of his hand! When he finds out that Shu Li is the one that took away long-time client, Mr. Avalon's order, he decides to return to the country to face his son! With the accompaniment of Guan Shang En, who has worked beside him for many years, Shu Han Ji walks straight into Shu Li's workshop, ordering Shu Li to return to his side. "Since I have returned, I will not go back!" Shu Li flatly replied to his father's authoritative and domineering request!
His son won't listen to him so he is forced to any methods to force him to yield. Shu Han Ji decides to set up another office in Taiwan. His objective is to strike out at his son's company until it collapses. If this happens, Shu Li, who loses everything, would he not obediently return to his side? Therefore, he left Guan Shang En in Taiwan to carry out this task! Shang En is the good friend that Shu Li grew up with. He couldn't bear seeing the father and son going up against each other and persuades Shu Li to go back to his father. Shu Li tells Shang En not to be concerned and just go about doing his things!
Working over at the convenience shop would only pay less than $80 for an hour, but the more Chen Wei works, the more energetic his is. He waits for Tian Qing to step into the shop and heat up the porridge that she likes in the microwave. Due to the fact that they see each other regularly, he and Tian Qing would gradually start conversing a few sentences. In addition, they started talking more and more. He doesn't know if this kind of getting along is considered to be her friend or not?
Zhi Zhi finds a boyfriend and each day after work, Tian Qing would see her happily go out on a date. Yet Tian Qing would only return home alone and dream about her and Shu Li's date… One time, she also did gather up her courage and took the initiative to make up an opportunity of "meeting by chance" with Shu Li but Shu Li seems to have forgotten about her already! That's not surprising. Shu Li must have seen lots of different girls. How could he remember her that hasn't been hired as an employee yet? Aye! Have a bowl of warm porridge to warm up this cold mood!
When one is in a depressed mood, if there is someone who would talk with you that would be so great! Tian Qing uses "I have a friend like this…" to pour out her 'things don't turn out the way it is planned' sort of mood. The following day, Chen Wei took a newspaper to give to her. Published on top is an announcement titled "Acclaimed International Milan Jewelry Company's Designing Competition." He wants her to pass the information on to "her friend" to go and participate in the competition. In the event that one gets selected, then one's wish to become a designer would come true!
Tian Zhen finally has Tian Qing's news and that's because she received the bank's credit card payment notice that is sent to Tian Qing. The total amount is close to $200,000. Tian Zhen sold the car in order to help her younger sister pay off the credit card bill. Even though her heart is hurting, but seeing that her sister has ran away from home and is still able to spend so much money, it is clear that she is living very well. Thinking like this, although there is still no information on Tian Qing, yet Tian Zhen still feels a little better! And life is a succession of unexpected and amazing things! One day, Tian Zhen receives Milan Company's telephone, telling her that her work has been chosen for the competition and inviting her to design another work to enter into the finals. Tian Zhen was speechless? She hasn't participated in any designing competition! Actually, it was Xiao Man who secretly took her birthday present and entered it into the competition. Seeing the amount of the award money, Tian Zhen decided to give it all her best!
Tian Zhen used the theme of "Zhen Qing – True Love" as her work. However, she gets notification from the general assembly that stipulates all finalists must be dressed formally and personally reveal their own work. The cost of the formal wear is immeasurable and whether or not she will be able to win is still unknown. Weighing this in her mind, Tian Zhen decides to give up! To one's surprise, Shu Li actually gives her a formal dress and Tian Zhen is extremely surprised! Even though their relationship is not as bad as when they first started out, there are times when they both take care of the other and occasionally, there would be some strange and fuzzy feeling… However, she just had an argument with him over something very little not long ago, why would he give her a formal dress?
"Because I want to see the disappointed look on your face when you don't win but if you back out before it happens, then I won't be able to see it…" Shu Li replies this way. But is this what he truly feels in his heart?
On the day of the competition, Chen Wei especially took off from work in order to give support to Tian Qing. When Tian Zhen finds out that her sister is also one of the five finalists in the competition, she had the thought of withdrawing. But she was blocked by one of the staff that is hosting the competition and urges her onto the stage. She stiffly goes up on the stage. When the host, Guan Shang En, introduces the judges, she discovers that Shu Li is actually present! The result of the finals are announced, Tian Zhen's work of "Zhen Qing" wins. Aside from the award money, she gets an employment contract too. Tian Zhen's mind is not on participating at the celebration feast and hurriedly rushes after Tian Qing… "Why aren't I as good as you?" Tian Qing's dream is shattered and takes her anger out on Tian Zhen. It wasn't easy for Tian Zhen to be able to see her sister and this was not the outcome that was expected!
Tian Zhen, who won, did not feel the joy that she was anticipating and she even wanted to decline the employment contract. Shu Li understands where she is coming from. And Chen Wei couldn't bear to see Tian Qing so dejected so he hides the fact from Tian Qing and gathered up his courage to go see Shu Li. He criticizes Shu Li for not caring about his own employees and also requests that Shu Li give Tian Qing an opportunity to move forward. From this, Shu Li finds out that Tian Qing is a salesperson at his own company. Should he reply to Chen Wei's request or not? Shu Li decides to transfer Tian Qing to the designing department and doing this because he is moved by Chen Wei? Or is it because he doesn't want to see Tian Zhen unhappy?
After she finds out that Shu Li has appointed her sister as a designer, Tian Zhen is at peace and goes according to the contract to Milan Company to work. With a job now, it's bound to happen that she is no longer going to be able to do the work of a maid. Then there won't be a reason for her to live in Xin Yuan! When Tian Zhen places an inquiry to Shu Li on whether he wants her to move out, Shu Li is silent and didn't answer. "He didn't open his mouth to urge her to stay. Does that mean he wants her to leave?" Tian Zhen guesses at his meaning! When Shu Li returns home and sees that Tian Zhen has already left with her luggage, he tells himself that even though the house is quiet, but without a squabbling person is not bad either! To one's surprise, Tian Zhen uses the reason of "It's going to rain soon and wasn't sure if you gathered the clothing that is hanging outside to dry." to come back. Hmph! Where does it look like it will rain? It's clearly an excuse! Although Shu Li understands that it is an excuse, but don't know why, he feels very happy in his heart…
Tian Qing is transferred to the designing department, she wishes to strive hard to show her performance. When she enters into Shu Li's workshop and discovers a picture of "Xin Yuan" hanging on the wall, she was totally startled. "Why is this picture here?" "Not only this picture, but even the house is his!" Jia Ling helped Shu Li repond to Tian Qing's question. Tian Qing understands that Tian Zhen did not lie to her before. Therefore, she takes the initiative to go and find Tian Zhen and apologizes for her behavior in the past. Tian Zhen is very pleased and invites Tian Qing to move back to the house to live. "With your tone of voice, it seems like you are the owner of Xin Yuan…" Tian Qing boldly questions her sister, isn't it like that? She is already living in someone else's home, what right does she have to invite her sister to come and live too? "We will work hard together and buy back Xin Yuan!" Tian Zhen said. "Dreaming like that? How big an ability do we have? It's not possible!" Tian Qing doesn't approve of her sister's dream. Even though that is the case, but their misunderstandings have disappeared and they are back to their sister relationship again!
Tian Qing fulfilled her dream to be a designer and hopes that she and Shu Li could move forward even more… This day is Tian Qing's birthday. She gathers up her courage and invites him to celebrate her birthday with her. At the restaurant, Tian Qing waits for the appearance of Shu Li… The person who comes is actually Jia Ling. She tells Tian Qing to stop being so foolish! Shu Li's heart would not move for any girl because he has never been able to forget his first love. Tian Qing remembers back to the night when she met Shu Li at the Pub. When Shu Li reaches for his wallet, a photo fell out at one time and when she picks it up for him, she took a glance at it. Is it that girl? Right! According to Ling's answer, this girl is called Cheng Jie. Originally, it was because of Shu Li's father's opposition, who used money to bribe Cheng Jie's heart and because of this, Cheng Jie leaves Shu Li. Since then, not only did Shu Li broke away from his father's control, but he also doesn't believe in love anymore!
Chen Wei buys a small cake and waits in front of the apartment. Tian Qing returns and happily expresses that Shu Li just celebrated her birthday with her. This is her most unforgettable, most happy birthday… "There is someone with her, keeping her happy… that is so great…"
Chen Wei hides the sadness in his heart and after sincerely giving her good wishes, he leaves. Tian Qing remembers that the illusion that she has just said to Chen Wei before couldn't possibly come true and couldn't help from being sad.
As a result of work, Tian Zhen and Shang En becomes working partners. They would frequently come and go together and also often work over time until late night. Shang En starts having feelings for Tian Zhen and this gives rise to pursue her… And after working late each time, when Shang En takes Tian Zhen home, Shu Li would not show any expressions on the surface but within his heart, he is feeling discontent.
Tian Zhen's design, "Qi Yi Xing Zuo", is finished and when it was ready to be released in the market, Shang En comes up with an idea and wants Tian Zhen to use the identity of "Designing World's Newest Shining Star" to personally be the spokesperson for the product. Tian Zhen couldn't refuse and accepts it with much difficulty! Shang En surely has an intelligent eye. After a complete makeover, a series of advertising pictures are released. Tian Zhen is as dazzling as the stars. As a result of having the support of huge funds, Shang En decides to not only throw out a big budget on advertising and publicizing, but also to lower the price and release out to the market. Sure enough, on the day of the conference, they receive good comments from everywhere. The sales capacity in the market is having excellent figures!
Faced with such a powerful opponent, Shu Li's franchise shop experiences a deficit in sales for the first time. Everyone feels the crisis in the office. Someone raises the idea of lowering prices to fight the opponent, might as well fight back! Shu Li believes that it is not a long term plan. He pretends to be relaxed to appease the others, but in actuality, he is feeling the pressure inside of him…
On the front of business, they have become opponents and returning home, Tian Zhen and Shu Li are still living under the same roof. This sort of relationship is nerve wracking and delicate. When Tian Zhen sees Shu Li's distress, she couldn't help but express that she didn't know that the work would become so popular. Maybe the next time it won't be so lucky! "I won't lose to you!" Shu Li replies with complex feelings. Tian Zhen's feelings are also complex. She has never thought to defeat him! Besides, seeing him so distress, she suffers inside her heart too…
Shu Li plans to release a new product and Shang En also chases after him and urges Tian Zhen to design a new product. One night, when they are each in their own rooms staying up late to work, when Tian Zhen thinks about that fact that she is fighting with Shu Li, her feelings were in total confusion. She couldn't concentrate and goes directly out to the courtyard to relax her mind. Shu Li also comes out to take a breath of fresh air. That night, the two of them threw away their worries, drives to the seaside and gathered up their mood again… When Tian Zhen opens her eyes, she discovers that she is actually leaning on Shu Li's shoulder and fell asleep. Daybreak has come. "Why didn't you wake me up?" Tian Zhen didn't understand. "I think that this is very good." Shu Li said. "This is very good? What does that mean?" There's no need for Shu Li to answer. Tian Zhen knows part of the meaning already. Yup! The feeling of leaning on his shoulder is very good… but, is this definitely love???
Tian Zhen couldn't hand in the draft of her design on time and Shang En repeatedly urges. Tian Zhen, in turn, asks Shang En a question. He and Shu Li are friends, so why does he have to release new products at the same time as Shu Li? Shang En replies that that is the tactics of fighting in the business world. She is an employee of the company, so she must listen according to the orders of the company! Why does Tian Zhen have to care about this? Shang En wonders if it could be that all his hints of his feelings to her have gone unnoticed because she likes Shu Li? If that is the case, then Shu Li is not only his opponent in business but also in the love too!
After a period of bustling about, Shu Li's new product announcement gathering is about to be held. Yet there was only a small amount of the media, reporters and guests that showed up. After much inquiring, it was found out that the Milan Company is holding an announcement gathering at the same time too. Due to the fact that Shang En had contacted the media before, therefore, most of the reporters went to his meeting place; the next day, on the newspaper, the article reporting on Shu Li's art is far from the length of Tian Zhen's… Jia Ling knows that this is not good. If this continues on, how long will the company be able to hold out?
After work, Shu Li stays behind in his workshop, dejected and worried and Tian Qing also stays behind too. Shu Li expresses that after work she should go back. Tian Qing bravely expresses her feelings to him. She tells Shu Li that in her heart, Shu Li would forever be the best designer, so much that he even surpasses her sister. She encourages Shu Li not to be discouraged. She is willing to stay behind and keep him company… Jia Ling just happens to bump into Tian Qing's confession. She feels that what Tian Qing said was really very touching, but it doesn't help in a bit toward the reality of things! She won't be as foolish as Tian Qing. Should she hurry up and look for another option?
Just as Jia Ling has guessed, Shu Li did not accept Tian Qing's kind feelings and refused her keeping him company! Tian Qing is grieving! She has confessed this way and Shu Li is still refusing her this way, is it because she doesn't attract him at all? Or is it truly because he doesn't have any feelings toward girls? Suddenly, she really wants to see Chen Wei. Chen Wei knows how to comfort her own grieving heart!
Usually, girls who drink by themselves in a Pub are lonely. Shang En meets up with Jia Ling here and he quickly knows that she is a woman who would be able to help him. With his qualities and sweet talk, it would be hard for her to not feel anything towards him…
Sales in the market are not going so well and things just seems to get worst from there. There are news that clients are breaking their cooperative relationship one by one. Sure enough, it is Milan Company's tactics on low-pricing. Shu Li is not surprised at all. What he is surprised at is: Why would Shang En have a list of his clients?
This succession of attacks causes the company to be in perilous danger and needs new funding. But how to raise such a large amount of money in such a short time? Jia Ling proposes, why not sell Xin Yuan? This house probably is worth a lot! Jia Ling is right and having no other choice, Shu Li asks Jia Ling to take care of this for him.
Jia Ling is able to find a buyer very quickly. The truth of it is, when Shang En finds out about this matter from her, he immediately arranged for someone to act in his place to buy the house. When Jia Ling brings the "buyer" to Xin Yuan, the buyer immediately wishes to finish the transaction and is willing to pay the deposit and sign the contract then and there… all of this, it is essential that they move out of the house… Tian Zhen is so depressed that she hides in the bathroom and secretly cries… and at the moment when the contract is supposed to be signed, Shu Li suddenly changes his mind and doesn't want to sell anymore, "Why are you being so sad for? This house, however long you want to stay here to live, then stay…" Surprised, Tian Zhen knows that it was because she couldn't bear to leave that Shu Li decides to keep Xin Yuan…
Using the excuse of not being able to do her work, Jia Ling hands Shu Li her resignation letter. Shang En has already promised to arranged a suitable position for her at the Milan Company. She has wasted a lot of time on Shu Li already and now she must firmly hold onto Shang En! Tian Zhen also raised to Shang En her desire to resign. Shang En reminded her: Your reputation, all and everything comes from my hands. If you leave me, then you will have nothing! Tian Zhen doesn't believe that is the case. She has found true love and this true love is worth more than anything else!
Tian Zhen shows up at Shu Li's company. Even if there is no pay, she would still work for Shu Li. Why is her elder sister willing to do this? Tian Qing doesn't understand. But when she sees the look in Shu Li's eyes when he looks at her sister, she immediately understands it all. Shu Li isn't really a guy with no feelings at all… He has feelings for her sister… However, the confounded Tian Qing finds out that she really didn't have any heartbreaking feelings at all. Why? Why is that?
Tian Zhen and Shu Li decided to work together to design new products. With the two of their strengths of appeals now, it is anticipated that they will certainly stir things up in the market and in the public. Yet without funding, there is no way of implementing all their plans. Just when Shu Li is searching everywhere for funding but with no avail, Cheng Jie appears… This woman, who, because of taking Shu Li's father's money in the past, abandoned Shu Li and left, she now wants to compensate for the wrong in the past. She is willing to invest in Shu Li and help him through this difficult time.
Would Shu Li accept Cheng Jie's help? Would the two of them get back together again? Would Tian Zhen and Tian Qing be able to truly find and hold onto true love? Would Jia Ling be able to hold onto Shang En as she has hoped? As for Cheng Jie, why would she suddenly show up in front of Shu Li's eyes after leaving for so many years? Would Shang En's scheming mind and methods be able to succeed in hindering Tian Zhen and Shu Li and finally be able to pursue Tian Zhen? Shu Han Ji doesn't hesitate to strike out at his son's company and only wishes for him to return to his side. Would Shu Li truly be unable to escape from the control of his father's palm? Moreover, he was against Shu Li and Cheng Jie getting together in the past, would he accept Tian Zhen now?
What kind of ending would the development of the plot lead to? These young men and women who are just starting their life, would they be able to obtain the wish that they seek for in their hearts? Whether happiness, whether true love, whether family love, whether friendship, or greedy wishes — the good and evil of life, the joy, anger, sorrow and delight, and partings and reunions, it is all being acted out.

The Polish Dance Theatre
The Polish Dance Theatre - Poznań Ballet was established in 1973 on the initiative of the city authorities and local artistic circles. The job of managing it was given to Conrad Drzewiecki, an outstanding dancer and choreographer.
Drzewiecki's 15 years at the helm were characterised by pioneer accomplishments which placed the Poznań Ballet among Europe's leading dance ensembles and opened the door to international ballet festivals.
In 1988 Ewa Wycichowska took over as the manager and artistic director of the Polish Dance Theatre. Wycichowska, for many years the prima ballerina of the Wielki Theatre in Łódź, choreographer and teacher, had cooperated with numerous American, Italian and German ensembles and sat on the jury of many Polish and international ballet competitions.
Treating modern and contemporary dance as the basic movement material, Ewa Wycichowska developed an original concept of performance and choreography that aims at a synthesis of arts in which the choreographic, dramatic, musical and visual layers meet and intermingle. She also made her own contribution to the idea of individualistic theatre and invited the cooperation of many distinguished artists from all over the world.
For some years now the Polish Dance Theatre has been perceived as a unique choreography forum, which has seen original choreographies by such artists as Birgit Cullberg, Mats Ek, Örjan Andersson, Jens Ostberg, Marie Brolin-Tani, Virpi Pahkinen (Sweden), "Les Carnetes Bogouet" (France), David Earle (Canada), Toru Shimazaki (Japan), Yossi Berg (Israel) and Jacek Przybyłowicz (Poland).
The Polish Dance Theatre\'s attractive repertoire, original dance language and contemporary theatre form have attracted universal praise from audiences all over the world.
For 35 years The Polish Dance Theatre, though based in Poznań, has remained faithful to its statutory obligation to promote the art of dancing and disseminate ballet culture throughout the country. And adding an educational perspective to its wide spectrum of interests, the theatre started organising the Contemporary Dance Workshops and the Contemporary Dance Biennale in 1994 and the International Festival of Dance Theatres in 2004.

How Georgia Lost the SEC Championship - RB Pass Pro
11 comments:
Very Good Analysis there Coach. I at first thought it was the freshman right tackle but after seeing the film you are exactly right there.ReplyDelete
Check out Alabama's first turnover, where Jarvis Jones slapped the ball out of AJ's hand. Eddie Lacy chipped JJ on a double team with RT DJ Fluker, then inexplicably stood there as if the play was over. Jones didn't stop because there was no reason to stop, so Georgia ball.ReplyDelete
http://youtu.be/3VJg2zJoYxE?t=10m49s (10:49 into video)
Please don't use Vimeo. Can't get the video to work in either FF or Chrome. Fail.ReplyDelete
I just feel like the play was rushed! A spike would have let Georgia collect their thoughts and might have gotten 3 plays at the end zone instead of two! Also the throw was extremely low for the back corner of the end zone.ReplyDelete
Read an article Sunday where Kirby Smart said they had practiced and knew Georgia would run this hurry up play with the "flat and back shoulder fade" route in their 2 minute offense for the past 3 years. CJ was told not to rush all the way and slap at the ball because of the potential low trajectory. Watch the replay, Milliner (#28) is all over Mitchell (#28) and the back shoulder fade. Lester (#37) and Smith (#24) both were covering the flat route. Talk about preparation!ReplyDeleteReplies
Good info, thanks for sharing.Delete
Good call, coach.ReplyDelete
The piece that I have yet to see any analysis on is the timeout that Georgia burned on defense with about 4 minutes to play.
Bama was at midfield with a 3rd and 5, and there appeared to be confusion among the Georgia defense, and it seems like they got caught with the wrong personnel on the field. If that timeout is still in play on Alabama's last possession, Georgia gets another 40 seconds. (And after the timeout, Yeldon runs for just enough for the first down. Next play is the go-ahead bomb to Cooper from the 45.)
I am not a trained enough eye with Georgia's personnel or scheme to be able to breakdown what they were trying to do, lining up there. Your thoughts?
- AnonymousDecember 6, 2012 at 9:59 AM
How about just a poor read by the QB. Bad throw. Throw should have been an actual fade, not a back shoulder.ReplyDelete
I think Georgia was more concerned with trying to stop the Bama offense and getting them off the field on a key 3rd down there.ReplyDelete
As far as the back shoulder fade, it is a good call vs. a good CB who can blanket a WR on the regular fade route, but it sounded like Saban had them prepared for it pretty good.

Pond & Lake Q & A
Q: What do I use to kill the emergent weeds on the shoreline? What sprayer should I purchase? NOTE: My kids swim in pond. – James of Wisconsin
A: At first sight or when controlled properly, cattails and other emergent weeds can add natural beauty, structure for fish and act as a buffer to reduce nutrients and sediment caused by runoff. But, beware! Emergent weeds can take over a pond very quickly if left alone for too long. It is best to pick an area of emergent weeds that you are acceptable with and mark it with boulders or other pieces of landscape. This will allow you to control only the emergent weeds that grow outside your acceptable boundary. There are 3 simple steps to control emergent weeds: 1) Spray… 2) Cut… 3) Repeat…
1.) Spray – Select the best product for the job. Shoreline Defense® & Treatment Booster™ PLUS Combo is best at providing long-term control for all types of grasses and cattails. It will also work for phragmites and/or purple loosestrife. Shoreline Defense® & Treatment Booster™ PLUS are mixed together with water and sprayed directly on to the target plant with a tank sprayer (We suggest using the The Pond Guy® Pond Sprayer). This will allow you to control all areas or select areas that you have set aside for this type of growth. Also note: Shoreline Defense® & Treatment Booster™ PLUS have no swimming use restrictions.
2) Cut – Emergent weeds can sometimes have a root base deep within the ground so removing them before they are completely dead will allow them to come back very quickly. Most emergent weeds are best treated when the foliage is around 12″ high. This will allow enough contact for the aquatic herbicide. After a successful treatment, they will turn brown and become limp within 7-14 days. After this occurs, use an Aquatic Weed Cutter to cut the weeds at their base and then simply rake them out with the Pond & Beach Rake.
3) Repeat – Repeat these steps as necessary. In some cases it may take several applications to gain control.

True-freshman receivers Shay Fields, Donovan Lee draw reps with top units
BOULDER — Two of Colorado's prized newcomers, true-freshman receivers Shay Fields and Donovan Lee, worked with the first- and second-team units Thursday.
While that's a good sign, wide receivers coach Troy Walters said not to make too much of where receivers get repetitions on a particular day, especially this early in August camp.
Lee (5-foot-8, 170 pounds) and Fields (5-11, 170) both hail from the greater Los Angeles area and were highly regarded for their speed and athleticism.
"We're moving guys around, letting them know that every day they have to come out and compete and don't be content," said Walters, a former wideout at Stanford who played eight seasons in the NFL.
"One day they may be with the ones and twos (units), and the next day with the threes and fours. We want competition and let them know that no job is safe and also that there's an opportunity to move up."

The Agency's report lists a number of policy initiatives and measures which could promote equality, combat racial discrimination and encourage better relations between majority and minority communities:
- Full implementation of EU anti-discrimination law;
- Ensure that national employment strategies include targets for improving the situation of migrants/minorities and operational measures against discrimination;
- Remove practices which undermine the right to housing, such as the exclusion of certain groups from social housing;
- Ensure that access to education is equal for all and that all members of society benefit fully from education;
- Further develop legislation, criminal justice initiatives and data collection on racist incidents to provide a basis for policies which protect victims and deter perpetrators.
The Agency presented its Annual Report 2005 to the European Parliament on 23 November 2005. The report looks at the evidence of discrimination in employment, housing and education, as well as racist crime data, and at measures being taken to combat this. Across the EU, the EUMC finds migrants and minorities to be overrepresented in the less prestigious employment sectors. Segregation in the housing sector is particularly prevalent in some Member States. Also educational achievements of a number of migrant and minority groups lag behind the majority population. The Agency warns that data gaps may result in serious discrimination in key areas remaining unnoticed. The report lists examples of best practice aimed at combating the exclusion of minorities.

Post-match comments from Afridi :
"First of all I'd like to congratulate the Indian cricket team and the Indian nation for this great victory, and wish them all the best fo the final"
"I want to say sorry to my nation. We tried our level best, and we enjoyed ourselves at this tournament"
My respect for him has sky-rocketed.
Made captain a few days before the tournament.
Led from the front, never cared about personal records, put the team above him, coalesced and cajoled a weak team, garnered the support from his men, rebounded from controversy, exhibited exuberance, uncomplaining about dropped catches off his bowling, gracious in defeat......
Afridi, a class act

'Its borders are so many vast prairies, and the freshness of the beautiful waters keeps the banks always green. . . . " So wrote Antoine de la Mothe Cadillac in 1701 of the site of his new settlement on the river between Lakes Huron and Erie. He'd chosen a spot where his cannon could shoot across the strait, and the village was called Ville d'Etroit. "Here," said partner Chauncey Nor-gadgets, to see what the other fellow was making and to swap ideas. No one seemed to think of money except as something which was used for building an automobile." But then, as Henry Ford's dreams of turning the automobile into a necessity materialized, auto making became big and serious business, symbolized as much as anything by the shift of the auto magnates' gathering place to the Detroit Athletic Club, a bastion to this day of the city's industrial standard bearers. Harold Scott, partner-in-charge of H&S Detroit Office from 1940 to 1963, was a director of the DAC. Over one fourth of the 9 million cars those cars and trucks takes only 17 per cent of the area's labor force. Even excluding the automotive industry entirely, Detroit has more other manufacturing employment than such cities as Cleveland, or St. Louis, or Newark. Predictably, H&S Detroit is in the thick of the auto business. With Gen-ton one day last May while driving northwest on Woodward, a mere three miles from downtown Detroit and with the city still all around, "is where I camped out when I was a boy—in the woods." The city today has a million and a half population, and two and a half million more in the metropolitan area, but the time when it mushroomed was in the early 1920s as the nation's auto production went from the first million-car year in 1916 to over four million in 1923- Up till then, autos has been sportsmen's playthings, and the men who made them gathered in the Pontchar-train Saloon "to bring their own and trucks built in the U.S. roll off Detroit area assembly lines. The significance of this, the Chamber of Commerce is quick to say, is that while Detroit is still the Motor City—headquarters of all four largest passenger car manufacturers are there—making eral Motors as its largest client this is bound to be. But, interestingly enough, as photos on these pages show, the auto business is a great deal more than shiny new cars coming off the assembly line. The industry depends on hundreds of parts manufacturers whose products funnel into car production at appropriate stages. Dow Chemical Company drives home this point with billboard and magazine ads that picture a futuristic car, "the 1967 Dow," symbolic of all the plastics and other chemically-derived products that go into automobiles. Dow's plant at Midland, Michigan, 120 miles north of Detroit, is reputed to be the largest chemical 14
