IELTS To Success is designed to help you prepare for the IELTS (International English Language Testing System) examination by providing strategies and material to practice in all areas of the test.
IELTS To Success is aimed specifically at people taking the IELTS Academic Module rather than the General Training Module. The Introduction provides an overview of IELTS for readers not familiar with the test. It contains a breakdown of each section of the examination, including content and procedure.
- Cambridge Practice Tests for IELTS Series (1 – 14) Student's Book with Answers with Audio
- Cambridge IELTS Series (1 – 14) for Academic and General Training Modules
- Cambridge IELTS 14 Academic with Answers (Ebook & Audio)
- IELTS Speaking Topics & Questions – Full 3 Parts (Ebook)
- The Key To IELTS Success by Pauline Cullen (Ebook)
The Skills and Strategies section discusses skills that are especially important in setting IELTS. We suggest you look through this section to help you identify any skill areas in which you may need to improve. This section will also help you become familiar with the kinds of instructions and tasks found in IELTS tests. The listening tasks in this section can he heard on Audio Cassette One, Side A of the audio cassettes that have been developed to accompany this hook. (These cassettes are available as separate sale items. They can also be obtained by purchasing the book and cassette package, which is also available.)
Of particular importance in the Skills and Strategies section are the pages focusing on the Speaking Module. Because the actual subtest is done as a one-to-one live intent view, it is beyond the capabilities of a book to provide opportunities for genuine practice. Nonetheless, this book takes a comprehensive look at what is expected of you in the interview and offer various language strategies and tips we have found to be useful.
The next sections are made up of practice papers for the IELTS Listening, Reading and Writing Modules. There are three complete Practice Listening Papers, to be done while listening to the above-mentioned audio cassettes that accompany this book. They are followed by six Practice Reading Papers and six Practice Writing Papers.
Finally, we provide answers for the Practice Listening and Heading Papers and sample answers tor the Practice Writing Papers, followed by tapescripts for the Listening Papers.

Hands-On Exploration and Analysis to Solve Meaningful Problems
Inside Monmouth
Hands-On Exploration and Analysis to Solve Meaningful Problems
The importance of student-faculty research to launching a successful career and several features on the immersive, high-impact research opportunities.
Collaboration Beyond the Classroom: Student-Faculty Research
The esteemed physicist, historian, and philosopher Thomas S. Kuhn was responsible for introducing the phrase "paradigm shift", which is used widely to mean a disruptive change in organizational thinking and intellectual progress. While scholarly seeds sown by undergraduate student-researchers may not always add up to a paradigm shift, such projects done in concert with a faculty member can yield breakthroughs in creative and original thinking that help evolve bodies of knowledge and academic disciplines.
According to the Council for Undergraduate Research (CUR), there is an expressed national anxiety about the general lack of support for research in the United States. The CUR believes that undergraduate research opportunities help develop critical thinking, creativity, problem solving, and intellectual independence, all of which in turn contribute toward advancing an innovation-oriented culture—a culture supported by Kuhn's conceptual revolution.
Importantly, a university graduate who puts on his or her résumé that they have conducted a research project in partnership, or even co-authored original research, with a faculty member instantly stands out to potential employers as someone who can contribute original thinking to the organization. That valuable experience is not limited only to students of the sciences, said the former dean of Monmouth University's School of Science and now Vice Provost for Graduate Studies, Michael A. Palladino, Ph.D.
Students at Monmouth from all majors have worked one-on-one with faculty on a wide variety of topics. Some have been presented at professional conferences, some have been published in academic journals, and some projects have become creative and artistic works that have pushed toward far-reaching expressions of talent. All have in common the experience of a meaningful, productive, and human mentoring relationship with individual faculty members who have guided students to value their own ideas.
(continued below)
At Monmouth University, both undergraduate and graduate students, across all disciplines (if qualified) may be able to contribute meaningfully to just such a value-added partnership, which could very well mean the difference between "getting a job" and "pursuing a career."
The University is committed to learning experiences that are both high-impact and immersive—and that extend beyond the classroom. Research opportunities with faculty are a transformative way for qualified students to undertake thoughtful and challenging work. Exploration and analysis can nurture the student's own intellectual passions and provide a path for future career goals and/or entry into graduate programs or professional school programs.
Dean of Monmouth University's Honors School Kevin Dooley, Ph.D., said the personal and professional value of faculty-student research opportunities cannot be denied. "This is a way for the student to have something that will make them stand out in today's very competitive job market," he said. "Employers want to see how that job candidate thinks, and not just about the job, but how they function analytically and creatively. Our students do such original research that they make a real impression.
"We encourage interdisciplinary skills, and that kind of multi-dimensional thinking can translate well into the world of work," Dooley said.
Dr. Dooley said the value of research work is about more than the actual project. He said the value of a lasting mentor relationship with faculty gives students a confidence that stays with them long after they have left the University.
"The opportunity for doing collaborative research as an undergraduate was a huge draw for me," said Genevieve Fasano '14, a biology major with a concentration in molecular cell physiology. Genevieve is now attending medical school at Drexel University in Philadelphia.
"I was excited by the opportunity to participate in research as a freshman. In my second semester at Monmouth, I began collaborating on research in the Dean of the School of Science's reproductive biology lab. I worked on this same project for three years and because of it, I developed my own independent research project."
Dr. Palladino, who worked closely with Genevieve on her research, said that for science majors, as it is for all STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) students, "the best way to learn science is by being active and by doing hands-on science. Students do not learn science by listening to professors talk about it or by reading a textbook. Science is learned by doing."
He added that it is an obligation of the University's mission to give students the opportunity to try research and to see if they like it and are good at it.
According to Dr. Palladino, nationally, less than 30 percent of all undergraduate students have an original research experience. "One of the great benefits of Monmouth students having an original research experience is not only working side-by-side with a faculty expert, but that expert is working with the student as a partner. Additionally, students are learning to work on a team. Not only are they working in a collaborative way with the faculty expert, but part of that experience is also about learning to work as a team member with faculty and with other students.
"By exploring something together, the student is not just a bystander, and when a faculty member can share their passion for the importance of their research with a student, they can be an exciting and effective mentor for that student."

Under General Manager Stan Bowman, the Chicago Blackhawks have made it a point not to overpay for goaltending, but that could conceivably change after this coming season.
That's because goaltender Corey Crawford will be hitting unrestricted free agency when his three year contract he signed after the 2010-11 season expires. That deal, which carries a $2.67 million cap hit, is slightly less than what they would have to pay goaltender Antti Niemi after the team's Stanley Cup run in 2010. In arbitration that year, Niemi was awarded $2.75 million, and the Hawks walked away from it, paving the way for Niemi to go to the greener pastures of San Jose, where he has since blossomed into one of the better goaltenders in the NHL.
Niemi isn't the only player that the Hawks have let go because of their good defense-begets-good-goaltending philosophy. The Hawks also stashed Cristobal Huet over in Europe to keep the exorbitant contract he signed under the previous regime of Dale Tallon off of their salary cap. They have brought in several goaltenders on short-term deals in the interim, with Marty Turco, Ray Emery, and now Nikolai Khabibulin coming in to provide cheap help on the back end of their defensive lineup.
Chicago Hockey
The team also has brought in a few players from overseas to groom for the big squad. Niemi was the first one in that vein, and the Hawks signed Finnish sensation Antti Raanta to a deal, and he will likely begin the season as the starter for Chicago's AHL affiliate, the Rockford IceHogs.
The reason we bring all of this up is that despite this strategy of paying a lot of guys in cheap increments, the Hawks still have managed to turn their goalies into desirable commodities. There were more than a few teams vying for the services of Emery in the offseason, with the veteran keeper ending up finding his way to the Philadelphia Flyers on a one-year contract.
Both Niemi and Crawford have also garnered a ton of attention, and a good indicator of that is a list that Yahoo's Greg Wyshynski compiled of his top 10 goalies in the NHL. Niemi ended up being slotted number five on the list, with Jonathan Quick grabbing the top slot and Henrik Lundqvist, Roberto Luongo, and Pekka Rinne rounding out spots two through four. As for Crawford, he ended up coming in at number eight on the list, just behind former Blackhawk Craig Anderson, who finished seventh, and Tuukka Rask, the Boston goaltender whom Crawford beat in the Stanley Cup Final in June.
Here's what Wyshynski had to say about Crawford:
"Winning the Stanley Cup doesn't make you a better goalie than a crappy contract makes you a worse one. (More on that later.) Crawford was everything the Blackhawks needed during their run to the Cup, even if he didn't start feeling the love until the Final. He had Conn Smythe worthy numbers for the postseason, and won some duels with Rask. That said, Emery gave us 17 reasons last season why playing in back of the Blackhawks' lineup can turn very good goalies into all-stars."
Whether or not you agree with Wyshynski's assertion that the Hawks' system has more to do with Crawford's success than Corey's own abilities is a discussion for another time, but it does fall in line with Bowman's thinking on goalies.
He has also proven that he isn't a guy prone to sentimentality, getting maximum value in deals for homegrown products like Bryan Bickell and Duncan Keith. He also is going to have to worry about re-signing Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane after the 2014-15 campaign, so dumping a bunch of money into an extension for Crawford doesn't seem like it's going to be on
Bowman's radar.
Then again, he has gone against character before, matching an offer sheet on Niklas Hjalmarsson back in 2010 that ended up costing the Hawks the chance to retain Niemi's services, even at a rate that was seen as too low by some observers.
He may opt to do the same for Crawford, who has been in the Hawks' organization since 2003 and has been a loyal player despite being consistently glossed over for starting chances with the big club and constantly being playing under the threat of replacement from guys like Emery and Turco.
It will be interesting to see if the Hawks attempt to reach a deal on an extension with Crawford in season, and whether or not the team engages in those negotiations will be a good window into what Bowman's thinking is on his Cup-winning keeper. It will be one of the more interesting subplots to the Hawks' championship defense (along with whether or not they will deal Hjalmarsson before the deadline, or attempt to re-sign him despite having several guys in the pipeline capable of replacing him), and will have a big impact on the future direction of the organization.

How Mnemonic is Used to Program and Control Your Mind
The adjective definition of the word mnemonic is "assisting or intended to assist the memory." As for the noun definition, mnemonic means "something intended to assist the memory, as a verse or formula." The word mnemonic originated from the Greek word mnemonikos, meaning "of or pertaining to memory". Based on these definitions, mnemonic is something that affects the memory.
Mnemonic is used in many different media, such as video games, TV commercials, cell phone apps, computers, and movies. The techniques used in mnemonic can be used for good or evil purposes. Unfortunately, most mnemonics of today are used to program our minds in negative ways and control how we think to a large degree. One of the most popular media used for mnemonic is television (TV).
Have you ever wondered why TV shows are sometimes called TV programs? They are called TV programs because they are using them to program your mind with mnemonics and subliminal messages. They did not call them TV programs for no reason. It is right in your face and hidden in plain sight.
Do you need more evidence that TV shows are being used to program your mind? TV is the acronym for the word television. Phonetically, the word television sounds like tell-a-vision. They are using TV programs to "tell you a vision," so they can brainwash you to think the way that they want you to think.
Mnemonics are effective for manipulating your mind because they utilize sacred geometry, sigil, sound, and light to create magic effects to control your thought patterns. Because of their effectiveness, many corporations are replacing conventional subliminal messages with mnemonics in their advertising campaigns.
One of the most effective ways to prevent mnemonics from affecting your mind is to become aware of how they are being used to program your mind. The video at the end of this article will show you how to do this. In addition, learn to strengthen your awareness and free your mind.
Below is a summary of a great video from YouTube about mnemonic titled "Mnemonic Mind Control – Who Owns Your Thoughts?"
Presentation by Bonnie and John Mitchell for the 3rd Free Your Mind Conference 2015.
This presentation by John and Bonnie Mitchell looks at the technology now being used against all people who watch television, mainstream movies, play video games, use cell phones and computers.
This is the culmination of the illuminati's mind control and behavioral research programs; the easiest way to hypnotize and program a human being's subconscious mind.
It combines electromagnetic pulsing, manipulation of sound and light frequencies, hypnotic trance induction, brainwave entrainment, and digital dark sigil magick. This tool is being used to keep the majority of people in a constant trance state, rewrite memories, control behavior, and insert demonic energy. Ultimately, it aids in the manifestation of the dark, fear-based reality the illuminati desire.
Quotes from the film "Mnemonic Mind Control – Who Owns Your Thoughts?"
"The subconscious mind is the data storage center of the brain. It recognizes simple shapes and colors and takes in any information the conscious mind cannot figure out. The subconscious is not just a storage center, however; it is in control of our five senses and it makes important decisions even before the conscious mind becomes aware of them. The subconscious mind is what determines our view of reality and how we manifest it."
"Sigils are everywhere; our subconscious mind recognizes the meanings of the sigils, having seen them over and over again. Sigils that have been around a long time have more power, especially if they are seen by millions of people every day. This is why advertisers and others who want to program your mind with their wishes use sigils on television, in the movies, on cell phones, on the Internet, in video games, on billboards, in magazines…everywhere."
"The neural pathways of the brain are constantly reforming themselves, based on the information that comes in; the pathways are set according to what your daily habits are. When you change your habits or just change your mind, you begin to form new pathways; you can actually "train your brain" this way. However, if you are allowing someone else to train your brain, you are giving them the ability to reform and reshape the neural pathways of your brain for you. You begin to accept new perceptions as your own, not realizing it was an outside source that programmed your thoughts."

Manual:Running MediaWiki on Mac OS X
The primary development and deployment environment for MediaWiki is on Linux and Unix systems; Mac OS X is Unix under the hood, so it's fairly straightforward to run it.
Get requirements[edit]
|Requirements in short
Make sure to also check the RELEASE NOTES shipped with MediaWiki for requirements.
Image thumbnailing and TeX require additional programs. Parsoid (required by VisualEditor) and other services have their own requirements.
Instead of setting the required software up separately you might be better off to start with MAMPstack + MediaWiki, which gives you Apache, MySQL, PHP & MediaWiki in one convenient package.
Or use XAMPP Application to get easier Installation and highly recommended for beginners, go here instead.
For a personal Wiki environment, you may find it easier to install MAMP, if you are using Mac OS X 10.4 or newer (MAMP will not run on Mac OS X 10.3 or older). This installer will provide its own Apache, MySQL and PHP (with eAccelerator (an updated MMCache) and Zend Optimizer) and a nice simple control panel, running under your login (in other words, this really isn't configured to work as a production server, so don't do that). If you turn off the Mac's built-in personal web server, you can run MAMP's Apache on port 80.
You will still need to install ImageMagick, but otherwise everything MediaWiki needs will be there. Note that with MAMP your personal Web directory defaults to /Applications/MAMP/htdocs instead of the Mac's usual /Users/yourname/Sites. If you don't want to store your own data files in the Applications directory, open MAMP's Preferences, select the Apache tab, and change the document root to the directory of your choice. /Users/yourname/Sites is an excellent choice. Clicking on MAMP's Open Start page button will open http://localhost:8888/MAMP/ in your browser to show you how things are configured.
Install MediaWiki[edit]
For experienced users, here is the quick version of the installation instructions. Most users will want to go through all the passages.
- Check that your system meets the minimum requirements shown nearby; Installation requirements has more details.
- Download MediaWiki (direct link to download the stable release version) and extract the archive to a web-accessible folder on your server.
- Point your browser to the directory where MediaWiki was extracted and follow the link to the setup screen. It should be in the form
http://domain/directory/mw-config/index.php. Replace directory with the path to your extracted MediaWiki folder. If installing on a local machine, replace domain with
localhost. If you install locally and later want to access your wiki from domain, then you will need to change LocalSettings.php from
localhostto domain. If installed on a remote server, replace domain with your server's domain name (eg: www.myserver.com).
- Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the process.
These instructions are deliberately brief. There is a lot that could go wrong, so if in doubt, you are advised to read the full instructions!
TeX support[edit]
See Manual talk:Running MediaWiki on Mac OS X#Mathematics for explicit instructions on how to add TeX support for MacOS X.

This family tradition of five generations of bricklayers would be very hard to beat anywhere in the world! You really need to be looking at the family tree, below, to follow all of the connected bricklayers in the Fleming clan. Amazingly this combined family of 21 bricklayers down through the generations since Great Grandfather William 1st, have laid the equivalent of 75 million bricks or 750 years of bricklaying between them.
That's about 10,000 houses they've built!
Mark Fleming is nearly 61 years and runs his successful bricklaying business in the outer east of Melbourne. Like father, like son, Marks grandfather became a bricklayer. Marks grandfather and dad lived around Shepparton, starting out doing the brick chimneys etc on the mainly weatherboard WW11 soldier settlement houses up along the Murray River, moving wherever the work was. Each of Marks grandfather's four sons became bricklayers, at the time not too unusual as it was common to follow in your father's footsteps when work was hard to get.
However, that tradition carried on in part to the next generation when four more bricklayers emerged from (uncle) Ted Fleming, father of Jeff Fleming who studied at Preston and was Apprentice of the Year (now part of the North Melbourne Institute of TAFE).
The Holmesglen TAFE honour board lists two Flemings, cousin Jeff and son Luke.
Another uncles' wife, (auntie) Rose Fleming was also a highly respected, qualified bricklayer based in Poowong in the heart of South Gippsland – now in her late 60's she has only just retired. Mark employed her for several years "Rose is one of the best bricklayers I've ever hired. She was very highly regarded by the trade teams and could stand up for herself. She was petite in stature but could handle everything required by the job. Bricklayers don't generally have to do the heavy lifting, but if she needed to she could and she used her sense – she'd put 35 bricks in a barrow, whereas I'd load 50".
Mark reminds us "Times were much tougher on site in the past than today, conditions were poor for women. Even now though, the biggest issue is the other males. Some have no respect." But, wait for it. Rose's daughter Heather (Mark's cousin) is also a qualified bricklayer in the Poowong district. Today Mark says it's much more common to have females on the site, across many of the trades and most guys are very relaxed about it.
The story continues …Mark's son Luke is now a qualified bricklayer in partnership with his father and the business is thriving. Luke started university and considered other careers but – when it's in the blood, you can't fight it! They currently have two apprentices who are doing extremely well. "We get them on the trowel from the start and they love it. But they come back from trade school with horror stories of apprentices still not on the trowel after 12 months."
Mark has had 7 apprentices and knows how important it is to give them the hands-on training. He believes he's paid back heaps in the quality of their work and therefore the efficiency and profit of the job. Mark's is a gang of 5 at present, with Luke being his partner, 2 apprentices and a labourer on the team. Though generally home building is slow, Mark and Luke's business has plenty of units and new houses ahead, plus a buffer of around 20% commercial work.
Mark is carrying on the proud family traditions and each day adding to the 75 million bricks the Fleming family has laid. A great Australian story.

Wedding at Mavis's Kitchen
I was so excited to be asked by our old friends to do the flowers at their daughter's wedding, which was two Saturday's ago. It's always special to be involved in weddings, but when the wedding is for a family friend, then it's even more so. Hannah and Ronan got married at Mavis's Kitchen, near Uki, in heavenly Northern NSW. The back drop to their ceremony was Mt Warning and despite the grey morning, the afternoon cleared up to be a gorgeous Autumn afternoon.
But back to the flowers … weddings in out of town places are always lovely, however for the florist, it presents logistical challenges. But challenges are fun and I love a list! There's a lot of bucket carting, car packing and list making. Energy is definitely your friend, but not always around when the day begins before dawn and finishes well after dark. But it is absolutely worth the hard work, when you see the smile on the bride's face when she sees her bouquet. It was such a happy wedding with a big heart and a job where everything went smoothly. Phew!

Thank you for all your time demonstrating this pattern Jerry. Those of us who use similar flies and classics don't worry about losing them do we?
I make a lot of flies that require 20 – 30 minutes to complete and really appreciate your attention to detail.
I'll give this demo a 5 Star Rating because you took the effort to do it!

Guy Panneton (Grandpa)
July 26th, 1937 – June 17th, 2012
On June 17th, Guy Panneton passed away peacefully at home surrounded by his family, at the age of 74. Guy was married for 50 years to his beloved wife Patricia who predeceased him by only a few months. Guy was the father of three daughters: Louise and her husband John Gilmour and former husband Barry Gurberg; Jackie and her husband Ed Kus; Caroline Lussier and her husband Marc Laurin. Guy loved and was very proud of his grand-children: Richard, Francis, David, Jessica, Kristine, Samuel and Sabrina who are his legacy and who each carry with them a little bit of Grandpa. His three brothers were a big part of his life; he leaves behind Jean (Gisèle) and is predeceased by Pierre and Michel. Guy is also predeceased by his parents Jacques and Yvette.
Born in Montreal, Québec in 1937, he enjoyed travelling the world through his work at Lavalin. It brought him to Algeria, Haiti, Uganda, Sudan, Costa Rica, throughout Europe and so many other places. He especially enjoyed the trips where Pat could join him. As a civil engineer, he built many lasting roads, plants and buildings. He enjoyed his work tremendously ending his career at Canada Post where he headed up the procurement department.
Guy moved to James Bay from 1978 to 1980 and then from Montreal to Ottawa in 1992 where he spent many happy years surrounded by his family. He enjoyed summers at the family cottage in Labelle, where he could be seen with a hammer in hand, by the dock fixing something or playing in his stamps at the desk by the window. We all remember him with a pair of tweezers in hand arranging his impressive stamp collection, assembled over a lifetime.
A tall and distinguished business man, Guy was a great provider to his family. He was a very good man and will be sadly missed. Special thanks go out to "his" Hélène and Dr. Louise Coulombe, both angels sent from heaven.
Friends are invited to visit at the Heritage Funeral Home, 2871 boul. St. Joseph Blvd., (Orléans) Ottawa, Ontario, on Friday, June 22nd from 6 pm to 9 pm or June 23rd after 9:30am until 10:30 followed by a Service at Devine Infant Church at 11:00am. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Cancer Society (www.cancer.ca) would be appreciated. Condolences and donations may be made at : www.heritagefh.ca

What was your first reaction when finding out?
When I first found out I was pregnant I felt a mixture of shock, disbelief, fear and excitement. This is despite though I wanted a baby for the longest time. My partner and I had already had the "what if we have a baby" conversation but it was a one day in the distant future scenario. So after the shock subsided, we quickly became excited and we were both determined to make this work. This is when we realized how much love we already had for this unborn angel as well as the love and respect we had for each other.
How has your pregnancy been?
Pregnancy is an interesting journey. During the first month of my pregnancy I felt pretty normal, then came the second and third month and this is when the "ish" hit the fan. Morning sickness came, that constant feeling of wanting to vomit lived between my chest and stomach never fading. I soon discovered that morning sickness didn't necessarily happen during that time of day, it can linger on well into the evening until your body decides "ok, now it's time to through up." Call me impatient or what ever but I couldn't stand being like that the whole day, it prevented me from living a normal life. So at times, which I wouldn't advise, if it was extreme and unbearable, I would make myself vomit. I think I did it two or three time before I discovered Stoney, the ginger beer sent by the pregnancy Gods! It took the feeling away almost immediately and my partner made sure I was well stocked with 500ml bottles and 340 ml can's.
The best part of my pregnancy was showing off my baby bump and feeling my baby move. Yes at first it was alien like to feel something move in you but over time it became a feeling of reassurance letting me know that everything was fine. It kind of gives you an indication of your childs' sleeping habits, but that's just my theory, and when the movements become big enough, it's really awesome sharing that feeling with others.
How do you feel about the prospect of becoming a mother?
Wow, I have no words to describe it. At times I'm numb about it and it initially felt like life will go on as it had been in the past. The reality only settled in when I held my friends 3 month old girl, that's when I was like I'm going to be responsible for a little person who is going to be completely and utterly dependant on me in every way possible. That was scary, as I started to think what lessons I would teach her and what environment she'd be exposed to etc. When I bought her first item of clothing, I was overwhelmed with love and protection.
What advice would you give other expectant mothers?
Don't listen to every Tom, Dick and Harry and especially to people who have no kid's themselves. Everyone will want to put in their two cents but just keep in mind that every pregnancy is different.
What do you want most for your child?
Discipline and support in terms of my career choice. I really love what I do but wish I had been able to narrow it down earlier. If I'd known then what I know now, my attitude towards my studies would have been a hundred times better and disciplined. I believe that would have helped me make better life and career choices. This is something I definitely would like to impart on my child.
What have you decided to name your child?
I'm having a baby girl and she'll be called Tamani. It means precious in Swahili.

Cindy Abbott arrived in Nome on March 18th, 12 days and over 1000 miles from her starting point in Fairbanks, marking the completion of the 45th Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race. Winner Mitch Seavey crossed the finish line 4 days earlier, banking his third win in record time and becoming the oldest Iditarod champion in the history of the race.
The Iditarod is a piece of Alaska's history that we have been fortunate enough to experience while living here. The race pays homage to the important role played by sled dogs in the Arctic, with much of the 1049 mile trail tracking the journey to Nome made by dog teams in 1925 to deliver antiserum for halting the spread of diptheria.
Following the ceremonial start in Anchorage, teams made their way to Fairbanks for the re-start (despite having decent snow this year, it still wasn't enough to make the trails from Anchorage suitable). We eagerly followed their progress over the next week and a half; mushers and their dogs battled sub-zero temperatures and chilling winds, the mushers with a bare minimum of sleep as they prioritized tending to their canine companions.
The race is an amazing feat of courage, perseverance and ingenuity that we observers can only hope to understand through the stories shared by the mushers from their trails. Congratulations to the 73 teams that took the challenge this year and we're looking forward to the 46th running.
For amazing photos from the trails and rest points, definitely check out official race photographer, Jeff Schultz's website. Iditarod veteran, Jeff King's memoir, Cold Hands Warm Heart, is also a great read for those interested in personal stories from the race.

SAN JOSE — The newly built Casino M8trix could be open in a week and shuffle the city's gambling deck for the first time in nearly two decades after Police Chief Chris Moore approved its long-awaited permit late Friday.
The decision came as a relief to the card room's owners, who had hoped to secure the permit and open Casino M8trix four months ago as a relocation and re-branding of the old Garden City card room they bought out of bankruptcy five years ago and continue to operate.
"We're excited," said Sean Kali-rai, a M8trix consultant. "We're grateful we've come this far."
The chief's approval is conditional, and the card room must satisfy several requirements outlined in a report from the city's gaming administrator, including demonstrating satisfactory internal controls and surveillance systems.
"Once all those things are done, they're good to go," Moore said.
Kali-rai said M8trix could open late next week depending on how quickly they can satisfy the permit conditions and mobilize the transition.
Even with the permit in hand, it will take some time for the card room owners to transfer operations from Garden City, a fixture on Saratoga Avenue since 1976, to the new M8trix site on Airport Parkway. They must secure state approval to transfer the liquor license and round up the extra employees whom they had hired to staff the larger card room but could not put to work without the permit.
"They'll be hustling, that's for sure," Kali-rai said.
A key permit issue — whether to allow additional gambling on the top floor of M8trix' eight-story tower — remains unresolved. Police have cited concerns about their ability to monitor activity in the top floor gaming rooms, even though they would be kept under surveillance and open to the public. Moore said Friday he expects an additional report on upper-level gambling within 60 days.
"With the right conditions present we might be able to make it work, but that's something we have to work through," Moore said. "What we wanted to do is work with Casino M8trix to get them open on the ground floor, because it doesn't serve anybody's interest to have a vacant building. So this is a great step forward."
The rival Bay 101 card room, less than a mile from the M8trix, opposes allowing top-floor gambling there.
Bay 101, itself a reinvention of an older card room in Alviso called Sutter's Place, marked the last big play in San Jose's gambling industry when it opened in 1994 off Brokaw Road across Highway 101 from the M8trix site. Pitching itself as San Jose's "place to play," Bay 101 now faces renewed competition from the M8trix, which beckons card sharks in radio advertisements as the "new place to play."
Card rooms under state law allow poker and other games in which the players bet against one another rather than the "house" as they would in a Las Vegas casino, and have been a presence in San Jose for generations. They've developed a colorful and complex relationship with City Hall, where they are seen as cash cows, thanks to a 15 percent city tax on operations that generates about $15 million a year, but also potential sources of crime and corruption.
Dozens were indicted in 2000 for crimes including loan sharking and extortion at city card rooms.
The city over the years has shrunk the number of card rooms allowed to two, barred them from contributing to political campaigns and imposed a thicket of regulations considered the toughest and most costly in California.
The card rooms fought city efforts to bar 24-hour gaming and complain of struggling to compete with the state's 94 other card rooms as well as Internet poker, tribal casinos and the lure of Las Vegas.
Garden City's new owners, Eric Swallow and Peter and Jeanine Lunardi, proposed Casino M8trix to offer poker players a little Las Vegas sparkle. They won unanimous City Council approval for the relocation in May 2010. In March, they completed the $50 million M8trix building boasting programmable LED lighting displays, imported mosaics, a custom floral aroma and a 165-foot tower where they hope to allow additional gaming with a top-floor city view.
But police weren't prepared to issue the permit needed for M8trix to open in April as planned. The owners sued unsuccessfully to force a decision in a process they described as redundant and plodding. Police argued they were slow to produce requested documents for required background checks and satisfy concerns about monitoring and surveillance.
But Moore said that "the relationship with the ownership group has improved dramatically in the last month, which has allowed us to move forward much more quickly."
M8trix officials notified prospective new hires by e-mail Friday that the card room will be opening shortly. Kali-rai said some were forced by the long wait to find other work, and that M8trix will be hiring.
"It's exciting," said Jessica Carreras, 20, hired as a waitress for the new card room's restaurant, moments after receiving the e-mail summoning her to report for employee training next week. "It's going to be a big thing to come to San Jose. I'm glad I waited."

So for Decembers Maven box, I splurged with my Jules and upgraded to get a couple extra polishes and two of the It's Whipped lippies. This is the first time I've ever purchased "makeup" from Julep. If you guys have watched my Maven videos for any length of time you'll have heard me say many times that I'm just going to stick to polishes. But since everyone and their mothers' have released matte (liquid) lipsticks I thought, why not try these (and perhaps do a comparison with my others).
The polishes that I have here are:
Katie: Orchid iridescent chrome
Omelia: Sparkling sugarplum stardust
Chrissy: Deep Teal crème
Beatrice: Golden ember iridescent chrome
Cheyenne: Auburn matte metallic
Top: Natural Light // Bottom: With Flash
L-R: Katie, Omelia, Chrissy, Beatrice, Cheyenne
For January, I was slightly disappointed because (if you've followed my Julep adventure for any length of time) I got another light pink...wwhhhhhyyyyy?! The It Girl is suppose to have funky colours, I think these light pinks belong to another box style, but I LOVE the holo polish. It's GORGEOUS. I could have also lived without the nail therapy polish since I have a few already, and I actually thought I already owned it but apparently I don't. We also got a set of nail tattoos which I'm intrigued by. I've never use nail tats before, but I love the way they look! They have 10 nails and two french tip accents so you can mix up how you want to use the designs.
The polishes are:
Tali: Glacier breeze linear liquid holographic
Janie: Whisper pink sheer crème
Top: Natural Light // Bottom: With Flash
L-R: Tali, Janie
Which polish stands out of the crowd for you? And have you ever used nail tattos/decals? Were they simple to use, any you would recommend? Lots of questions to be asked, hopefully you guys have some answers for me. xo

When you wish to receive the highest degree of tree service for the most competitive price, you will enjoy what USA Tree Service Pros offers in Logan, Utah. Even though any arborist with our business is primarily trained in doing their job, you will be impressed by how friendly and respectful they are. Since we love it when customers send their relatives and friends to us, we will always give the tree its best possible appearance. You can also rely on us to arrive promptly since we do not want to keep you waiting around. Call USA Tree Service Pros in Logan at 888-202-2007 at this time if you have questions about a future tree service or need to plan a tree trimming or tree removal.
You may have the capability to do some tree trimming yourself with trees that are not much taller than you are in Logan, UT. As simple as our professionals may make a tree care look, there are actually a lot of ways to wind up butchering a tree. In addition, when the tree ages and grows, you need to use power tools to get the job done. You also need to consider how willing you are to risk getting hurt. After you start to see these safety hazards and the expense of investing in the gear to start with, it is easy to understand why so many people turn to USA Tree Service Pros for their tree trimming and much more. Do not risk ascending up your tree with a chainsaw to save a few bucks whenever we have a skilled tree service company in Logan.
When we are doing tree service throughout Logan, UT, our team heavily relies upon the use of both hand and electric pruners as well as shears. Ensuring that we can give the tree its best appearance comes as a direct result of these types of tools. If you interviewed the majority of people about the tools needed to perform a tree removal, they would likely all answer by saying, "a chainsaw." While we do use chainsaws and other tools to safely bring the tree to the ground, its roots will stay in place below the ground. When left underground, the roots can certainly prevent another tree from growing inside a several-yard radius. You will find that we also make use of bucket trucks, ladders as well as chippers during our tree service work.
If you do not wish to invest money into expensive tools and end up with a tree that looks as if it was cut in half, our stump grinding company in Logan, UT is an excellent option. Along with ensuring that the tree looks as professional as possible, we also offer the most reasonable rates. To talk about your tree service needs or to plan an appointment, give USA Tree Service Pros a ring at 888-202-2007 today.
Can I Do My Own Tree Service Procedure?
You can do your own tree service procedure to a degree, but you are placing yourself in danger when using power tools while standing on a ladder. Allowing USA Tree Service Pros to do tree service will guarantee your security.
Absolutely, we are priced extremely competitively in the Logan, Utah tree service market. Call 888-202-2007 to talk with one of our tree service professionals and receive a personalized quote.
When you wish to schedule a tree service in Logan, UT, call us and tell us a little more about your circumstances regarding which type of service you need. From there, we will plan an appointment time for the tree service that fits your schedule.
When we speak about tree trimming, we are working with trimming up branches to make the tree look as symmetrical as possible. Pruning requires working with the branches to define the overall shape of the tree. We advise starting the pruning process during the first year of the tree's existence.
Assuming that thunderstorms continue to occur in Logan, trees will continue to endure damage. As this is the case, we offer tree removal to bring the tree down and remove the roots buried underground.
Anyone who is properly trained and experienced in using tree service tools is an arborist. They are similar to a walking encyclopedia of each and every type of tree that has ever lived, and they certainly know how to care for all sorts of trees.
The personnel at USA Tree Service Pros will normally need to use either a ladder or a bucket truck when we do virtually any type of tree service work. Shears and pruners are used during our tree trimming procedures. To ensure the tree is brought down safely and effectively during tree removal, we will use chainsaws and a number of other tools. We also do stump grinding work by using a stump grinder after the tree is cut down. We also use chippers nearly every time we need to haul a tree away.
Without a doubt, our license along with insurance covers our tree trimming, removal and stump grinding work in Logan. For people with good friends or family members in other areas such as Rochester Hills tree trimming, inform them that we provide solutions throughout the region.

Reportedly, "no one was picking up the phone" at any of the several New York City properties of a landlord who was prominently cited in a recent media report.
Here's why: He tops a housing-related list that nobody wants to be on.
That succinctly stated ledger-type entry is termed the "100 Worst Landlords in New York City." For obvious reasons, entrants will go to great lengths to avoid being cornered by reporters for grilling on substandard management practices and outcomes.
Those prominently include dwelling conditions marked by evident danger and unsanitary living conditions.
The list has been released annually since 2010, its stated principal author being the city's Public Advocate, who centrally acts as a watchdog for New Yorkers on various matters.
As important as safe and sanitary housing is, it is small surprise that the 100 Worst list garners more than a modicum of attention each year. City Mayor Bill de Blasio -- who once served as Public Advocate himself -- calls the numbered landlord call out "a critically important resource for tenants."
The list cites dwelling violations based on details compiled by the city's Department of Housing Preservation and Development and Department of Buildings, respectively. The landlords' ranking proceeds from worst to so-called "least worst."
The violations are myriad and often flatly egregious. The above-media article points to things like insect infestation, mold, dripping ceilings, busted locks, mice intrusions and more. In one apartment building alone, city officials flagged 38 Class C violations (the worst type, tagged as "immediately hazardous" and requiring remedy with 24 hours of notice).
This year's leader had the dubious distinction of being runner-up last year. His cited violations at the eight buildings he owns totaled more than 2,000 during the reporting period this time around.

The powers that be at Sony BMG gave the nod to a limited edition outside of a standard edition. So that makes the message clear: Out of the Blue is the album that defines Electric Light Orchestra. For the world outside of the fanbase, there doesn't seem to be much else to ELO other than this album. But ELO had everything you can ask for in 1977-8. 17 new songs spread out over 2LPs, posters and cut-out spaceship to promote the album stuffed inside (you don't see that anymore, do you?) and an enormous concert tour that fed wild hungry imaginations. As an absolutely riveted kid, the moment I played this album was the moment I latched on for good.
It's 30 years later and in that time, ELO became the one band which I enjoy exploring completely. I'm interested in hearing everything from the crude beginning to the bittersweet end and all the crumbs in between. And I mean everything. So, where does Out of the Blue stand in all of this. This album is so many things I hope for in an album with Jeff Lynne's name on it: some short little pop ditties, an even shorter segue track or two, but also some longer more in-depth tracks. I hear the unique places (for better or worse) where Jeff Lynne, the producer, takes his songs... and for a satisfying amount of time, I hear these guys play!! For those reasons, Out Of The Blue is strong, perhaps the strongest of their career. As a fan 30 years later, though, I'm stuck in a dilemma. No matter how many times I try to warm up to this album today, I find it so over the top, I just barely get through it. This album was a dream come true for me as a kid, but today...
Yes, I appreciate the hard work Jeff and the rest of the band and support staff did to create this. Yes, the remastered edition sounds excellent and reveals little details I never knew were there. It helps, believe me. Jeff's creative burst isn't going by unnoticed. But on the whole, Jeff Lynne and ELO were way more interesting before and after this album. I can't help but to notice the remaster also reveals several tape flaws in some of the more quiet areas of the album.
Now, this doesn't mean there's nothing to celebrate. When I heard eco-book edition, though, I thought of the soundtrack to Six Feet Under and worried... a lot. It's bulky and a bit flimsy. But then you get a copy of Out Of The Blue's eco-bok in your hands. At first you think, how did they fit 24 pages, a cut-out spaceship and a CD in there. But they did, and it's fantastic. The liner notes here probably paint the clearest picture of what any of ELO's recording sessions were like, plus a pretty comprehensive rundown of why ELO was one of the biggest most successful bands in the world during 1978. For those reasons and the amazing remastering, there's plenty to celebrate. Only thing is, I'll probably be looking at it way more than I'll be playing it.

BALTIMORE – The UMBC baseball team concludes its 2013 season with a trip up I-95 to take on America East Regular Season Champion Maine with a three-game series, beginning on Friday at Mahaney Diamond. The Retrievers and Black Bears will play a doubleheader on Friday with game one set for a 4:00 p.m. start, and then complete the series with a single game on Saturday.
In game one, junior right-hander Stephen Chrzanowski (Frederick, Md./Tuscarora/Hagerstown CC) will oppose Black Bear righty A.J. Bazdanes (5-5, 3.49 ERA). Chrzanowski (0-1, 4.34 ERA), who has come out of the bullpen 16 times this spring, will be making his second start of the season after getting the ball to start at Georgetown on Mar. 13.
Maine will send right-hander Shaun Coughlin to the hill in game two of the doubleheader while UMBC has not determined a starter. Coughlin (1-1, 3.31 ERA) started the series finale between the clubs in Baltimore, pitching just four innings and giving up four runs on six hits.
America East Pitcher of the Week Mac Gill (Bethesda, Md./Walter Johnson) will start the season finale for the Retrievers and will go against Logan Fullmer (2-3, 5.79 ERA). Gill has thrown four consecutive complete games for UMBC and defeated Hartford last week, allowing just one unearned run on seven hits and striking out three.
Maine (32-19, 18-8 AE) swept the three-game series earlier this season in Baltimore. The Black Bears blanked UMBC (17-28, 8-19 AE) in the opener, but then had to use extra innings to win game two, 8-7, on a solo home run by Eric White in the top of the tenth. In Sunday's finale, the Retrievers took a 5-0 lead in the fifth inning as senior Jason Allinder (Snow Hill, Md./Snow Hill/Chesapeake CC) drove in sophomore Jake Barnes (Annandale, Va./Annandale), but the Black Bears rallied for ten runs in the final four frames to complete the sweep.
UMBC enters the final weekend of the year winners of six of its last eight games, earning a come-from-behind 6-5 victory over Georgetown on Tuesday. Limited to just two hits through the first six innings, the Retrievers used a four-run seventh inning to earn a win in their final home game of the year. Senior Rob McCabe (Philadelphia, Pa./St. Joseph's Prep) went 2-for-2, scoring two runs, and reached base in all five of his plate appearances.
Freshman Kevin Lachance (Clifton, Va./Centreville), who tied the game with a two-RBI single in the seventh, leads UMBC at the plate with a .301 average (50-for-166) at the plate. The rookie shortstop, who is also tied for the team lead with 16 RBI and heads the Retrievers with 13 stolen bases, was named the America East Rookie of the Week after last weekend's series with Hartford.
Out of the pen, freshman Cam Maxey (Mechanicsville, Va./Atlee) and sophomore Kevin Ladner (Succasunna, N.J./Roxbury) combined to hold Georgetown to one run over the course of five innings, with Ladner earning his first career save. The second-year righty has posted a 4-1 record and holds a team-best 2.59 ERA this season in 41.2 innings of work. Junior Jon Cohn (Scottsdale, Ariz./Notre Dame Prep) has been the work horse for the Retriever staff, throwing 50.1 innings this season for a 3.04 ERA.
Having already clinched the conference regular-season crown last weekend, Maine defeated Boston College 9-7 in Chestnut Hill, Mass. on Wednesday afternoon behind freshman's Shane Bussey's three-hits, one of which was his first career home run. Junior Alex Calbick also collect three hits and drove in two runs. The Black Bears lead the America East both in hitting (.303 batting average) and pitching (3.62 ERA) and sit second in fielding (.970 %)
Senior Michael Fransoso was lifted in the first inning after getting hit by a pitch at BC, but paces the Blacks Bears at the plate with a .358 average (67-for-187) and 41 runs scored. Junior Eric White was named the conference Player of the Week last Monday after hitting .538 with seven hits, including his team-best fifth home run.
Three Black Bear pitchers have earned two saves this year with Burk FitzPatrick picking up his second on Wednesday, despite surrendering three runs in 1.2 innings on the mound.
- Maine leads the all-time series 34-3 and holds a 33-3 advantage in conference games. The Black Bears won the only non-conference meeting, a 9-5 decision on Mar. 11, 2002 in Charm City.
- Maine has won 19 straight games between the clubs with UMBC last defeating its conference rival with a 4-2 win on Apr. 20, 2008. The teams split a four-game series that year with the Retrievers also picking up a 21-8 win in seven innings.
- This weekend's series marks the first time since 2008 that UMBC will close the regular season on the road. In 2009, the Retrievers finished conference play at Vermont (May 11), but then concluded the year at home the next day against Georgetown (May 12).
- This will be UMBC's first time playing at Mahaney Diamond under second-year head coach Bob Mumma. UMBC and Maine played four times at Alumni Field in Baltimore in 2012 and followed with the three-game series earlier this season.
- Maine is the only America East opponent that the Retrievers have not defeated under Mumma.
- Friday's doubleheader marks just the second time that the Retrievers will be playing on a Friday. UMBC opened the season at the Caravelle Resort's Baseball at the Beach in Myrtle Beach, S.C. dropping a 5-3 decision to nationally-ranked N.C. State on Friday, Mar. 1.
- UMBC and Maine have met on the final weekend of the regular season two other times (2004 and 2010) since the Retrievers joined the America East in 2004.
- The Retrievers are 6-13 on the road in 2013 and 1-14 all-time at Maine. UMBC claimed its only win in the Pine Tree State during its first-ever visit, 14-1 on Apr. 17, 2005.
- Barnes went 5-for-10 with two doubles and a homerun in the three-game series against Maine earlier this season.

|Re: fingering orientation
|Tue, 28 Oct 2008 18:41:52 +0100
I have another question with the example. I want to add dynamics. I already added the \p (piano). But I also need an \< (crescendo) and \> (descrescendo) in the first and second measure respectively. But I never got any dynamics except the piano. Can you say me how to do?
Best regards, Helge----- Original Message ----- From: "Jonathan Kulp" <address@hidden>
To: "Helge Kruse" <address@hidden> Cc: "Lilypond-User" <address@hidden> Sent: Tuesday, October 28, 2008 11:54 AM Subject: Re: fingering orientation
It looks as though the command to set fingeringOrientations was not affecting the lower voice when you created multiple voices using <<{ \\ }>>. If you put the \set fingeringOrientations command inside the {} of the voice that actually contains the fingerings, then you get the orientation you want. This, however, makes the spacing messy as there's a documented bug having to do with the spacing of fingerings to the left of arpeggios. Here's the working code (with the buggy spacing):\version "2.11.62" \include "deutsch.ly" upperStaff = \relative c' { \clef treble \key as \minor \time 2/4 \repeat volta 2 { \set fingeringOrientations = #'(left) <ces-4 es-3 ces'-1>4(\p^"Andante" <ces es ces'>) | << { b'\arpeggio( as) } \\ { \set fingeringOrientations = #'(left) <ces,-4 es-3>2\arpeggio } >> | } } lowerStaff = \relative c { \clef bass \key as \minor \time 2/4 as | as } \book { \score { \context PianoStaff << \set PianoStaff.connectArpeggios = ##t \context Staff = upper \upperStaff \context Staff = lower \lowerStaff >> \layout { } } } Hope that helps, Jon Helge Kruse wrote:Hello, I write a piece for harp.

Proverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.
God asks us to do hard things sometimes. I was in a relationship for two years with a girl who wasn't a Christian, and soon we started to talk about marriage. I loved her and she loved me, but the whole time I knew that God was saying, "Stop. Don't do this. I have something better for you." After much reluctance and pleading with God I broke it off, and immediately afterward he called me on a yearlong mission trip around the world. Had I not listened to God and done the hard thing I never would've seen the clear path in front of me that was full of uncertainty and adventure with him.
We have all faced hard decisions and moments like that. To put our trust in God and take a step is scary, but not when we know that God is stepping with us. I am so thankful that I put myself aside in that decision and listened to God's direction, because he has blessed and provided like I never could've imagined. He is your rock in times of uncertainty and He is right there with you with every tough choice you make or winding path He calls you to walk down. Once you trust Him and take that step He will make your path straight. This isn't to say that God's path won't be difficult, it probably will be, but there is so much life, adventure, comfort and peace when you take God's way.
|What was a recent hard decision you had to make? Did you seek God in that decision?
|God's way is usually uncertain and possibly scary, but do you truly trust that he will guide you if you take his path?
|When faced with a rocky path or a tough decision put your trust in God and he will guide you.

Co-founder Kate Scherer worked with the Japonesque brand in 2007 in the role of art director/co-owner at Thread Group agency. There she was a leader on the team responsible for the packaging rebrand.
The challenge was to elevate the brand perception and increase the ability for consumers to self-select while staying within the existing peg display system.
The logo was updated to a sleek and modern silhouette to establish the professional positioning. Boxes were redesigned with open windows for easy identification. Color-coded categories and highly stylized product photos made the interior product easy to understand from any angle. The high contrast photography and high shine spot UV added extra pop and a more modern look, while hand-illustrated instructions increased the consumer's ability to self-select and further customize the feel.

When You Need to Rehome a Cat
When you love cats, it may feel like, "The more, the merrier!"" But unfortunately, there are times when the feline dynamic just doesn't work. Here's some help.
A certain amount of conflict and discord is natural in any group living situation. Owners of even the most mellow and congenial cat families know just how quickly conflict can erupt as group members experience the normal ups and downs of life.
Wise owners understand how powerfully even seemingly insignificant changes can affect their cats and disrupt the group's harmony. They also know how important it is to address the effects of changes positively and immediately.

I knew that this film would appeal to my animal crazed 7 year old the minute I saw the trailer. She's keen on all things cute, cuddly and animal related and this ticks all the boxes. I must admit, I didn't think it would be for me, but that isn't a consideration when you have children is it!
Oddball and the Penguins is a homegrown Australian movie shot entirely on the coast near Melbourne it features up-and-coming Australian star Shane Jacobson ("Kenny"), Sarah Snook ("Steve Jobs", "Predestination") and Alan Tudyk ("Frozen", "I, Robot", "Death at a Funeral").
The movie reminded me of one of those classic 1980's animal movies, it really took me back to my childhood. I have to admit, it isn't the greatest, most slick animal film i've ever seen. However, it had the 7 year old bouncing around the room as she really got into the film. She hasn't stopped talking about it since, re-naming her soft toys as Oddball.
One of the things which surprised me was that its based on a real life story. There really is a chicken farmer and a penguin colony protected by Maremma dogs. You can find out about the Warrnambool Penguins here. What a fantastic story, it had me researching and looking for more information for hours!
Oddball and the Penguins is genuinely an enjoyable family film, it has no pretence about it and is appropriate for all ages. Check it out in the cinema from February 12th.
Off the coast from the small town of Warrnambool lies Middle Island, a sanctuary once home to thousands of the world's smallest penguins. But since foxes learned to cross the shallow channel to the island, penguin numbers have plunged. And if they fall below ten, park ranger Emily Marsh will be out of a job. This shocks her father, eccentric chicken farmer Swampy Marsh. His wife ran the sanctuary, but when she passed away, Emily stepped in, while Swampy retreated to his farm. Emily's nine-year-old daughter Olivia is the glue that keeps the family together.
And at the centre of everything is Oddball, Swampy's rambunctious Maremma sheepdog. After Oddball goes on an off-leash run that nearly destroys Main Street, tensions rise. If the sanctuary closes, Emily plans to take Olivia and move away with Bradley, an American tourism consultant. So now Swampy might lose his daughter and granddaughter as well.
The solution comes when Swampy rescues an injured penguin from the island and discovers to his amazement that Oddball – who can't bring himself to guard chickens – is an expert at guarding penguins. With two weeks until the final penguin count, Swampy and Olivia devise a crazy plan – train the rambunctious and unpredictable Oddball to protect the penguins and save the sanctuary, while somehow keeping the operation a secret from everyone.
Will Emily discover the truth? What about the suspicious Dogcatcher? And who is the shadowy person trying to make sure the sanctuary closes?
What follows is a rousing adventure as Oddball, Swampy and Olivia manage to save the penguin preserve, their family and the town itself.

Imlay City Police Looking For Man Involved In Fatal Hit-and-Run
Police are on the lookout for a man involved in a fatal hit-and-run this morning in Imlay City. Although Imlay City Police are asking the public for help - do not approach this man. This is not his first brush with the law and he is considered to be dangerous.
Reports indicate this morning at roughly 10:00 a.m. Alexander Waschull struck and killed a motorcyclist on M-53 (Van Dyke Road), north of Newark Road in Imlay City. Waschull was driving a silver Jeep, but he took off on foot.
Guns were found in the Jeep and Waschull has been in trouble before for OWI, disorderly conduct, weapons charges, and domestic violence. Again, DO NOT APPROACH if you see him. Call 911. Let's hope he caught soon.
The name of the motorcyclist has not yet been released, our thoughts and prayers are certainly with the family.

Do you use disposable wipes for cleaning dusty tables, dirty windows or removing make-up? Ditch the chemically-loaded store brands and make your own cheaper, non-toxic and super-easy DIY wipes at home.
Other than a few common household ingredients for making the solution for the wipes, all you need are paper towels, a plastic Tupperware or coffee canister container, a sharp object to poke a hole in the plastic lid and a serrated knife.
Check out the different instructions below for making cleaning solutions for general surface cleaning, window cleaning, baby wipes and make-up removal.
Take note that for an even greener option, you can cut up an old cotton T-shirt into squares and soak them in cleaning solution of your choice in a clean mason jar to use as non-disposable, laundry-friendly cleaning wipes.

It's been boiling up at McGovern the past couple of days and our campers and staff are doing their best to beat this heat. Four glasses of water before leaving the dining hall, McGovern Family!
Last night the LEAD campers led a fantastic game of Capture the Flag, with their own personal twist. The rules were: if you're on the opposing side and somebody gets you with a super soaker, a wet sponge, or taps you, you're out. Obviously this led to a gigantic water war on the soccer field, with pool noodles and water flying every which way.
Each team had to deck themselves in crazy face and body paint, creatively donning their side's colours and wacky hairstyles. Aslan and Linoleum were particularly beautiful yesterday evening. The night ended with a cool breeze and after snack, everyone went to bed. I was up late doing some belated spring cleaning, but I got a good snooze anyway.
While cleaning the office, I grabbed a box of old photos and a handful of us spent some time looking through them. Urb, Nightwing, and Marvel found some vintage gems that had us laughing. Even though it's been a long time since the photos were taken, the magic and spirit of Camp McGovern was the same, filled with years of games, memories, and connections.
Also, we found one of Marvel's old cabin photos and it was spectacular. Rock on, Marv.
Tonight Spinach has planned an American Idol-esque lip sync battle for the campers and staff. There will be four guest judges and the different cabins will face off with an array of pop songs, ballads, and Disney classics to see who will win the title.
It's currently Activity 3 right now, but before that there was a nail polish party in the Activity Forest, where glitter, stripes, and loads of colours were painted on. All of McGovern is sparkling!
I hope you've been having a wonderful week and that you remember to stay hydrated, McGovern Family!

lump (someone or something) together(redirected from lump us together)
lump (someone or something) together
To put or categorize someone or something in the same manner or group as someone or something else, especially in a careless, hasty, or indiscriminately. Just because I've dabbled in drugs and alcohol doesn't mean I deserve to be lumped together with those degenerates. Kids, please don't lump all these clothes together before they go in the wash—separate out lights and darks! I don't think it's a good idea lumping these two groups of kids together.
lump someone and someone else togetherand lump something and something else together
to classify people or things as members of the same category. You just can't lump Bill and Ted together. They are totally different kinds of people. I tend to lump apples and oranges together.
lump together
To put people or things in the same group or category indiscriminately: The teacher lumped the puzzles and the books together in the toy box. Those students are friends, but I wouldn't lump them together in the same clique.

5 points for organic traffic
There are many things that can affect your websites organic rankings, some more than others. Here are 5 things that can help traffic from search engines...
H1 Heading Tags
Search engines need to know what each individual page is about in order to categorise what content is on that page. Always put a H1 tag as the main title of the page. If the content has different sections, put H2 and H3 tags, to separate them out. Never put two H1 tags on the same page as this will confuse Google unless you are using HTML5.
Long Meta data
If Meta data is too long, Google will cut off the remaining characters so it can fit in the required space. Its best is to have unique descriptions (so it's not duplicated). Having a "call to action" is always useful, as these appear in search engines for customers to see. Having a good Meta description can increase click-through from search engines to your website.
If you have a website that desperately needs fresh content, provide it! Providing new content is what search engines love! It is always best to have fresh content at the top of the page where the customer will be able to see it, especially if the content is explaining what the product is. When Google comes to view your website and your content is at the bottom of the page, it will have to crawl through images and links first as it is located at the top of the page. Google will think that this is more important than the content on your page, so make sure your content is at the top, located next to your H1 tag. As mentioned before these tags will help Google to understand your page and having the content next to it will help also.
Plus – Always remember that you must have a website that is built for the customer, not for search engines.
Duplicate content
"Duplicate content is content which appears in more than one location on the Internet"
Duplicate content on your website will make Google's job harder as Google will have to find the original content on your website. Make sure you have unique originally content on your website and you will be rewarded by Google.
Speed of your site
This is very important, not just for search engines, but for the customers. Research suggests that if you have a fast page you should convert better, hopefully leading to an increase in sales.
Here are some tips what you can do to your website to make it faster:
More Redirects, More Time
Every time you make a redirect the customer will have to wait for it to redirect back to previous page or the homepage. Keeping these to a minimum will help your site.
This will have a large effect on speed. So make sure that the images on the page/website are not as big and that the quality of the image is not too high as this can slow it down dramatically.
Extra code
Getting rid of any unwanted/random code will affect the speed like extra commas, spaces and unused code just little things like that.
Hope you have found this blog useful and these five tips helpful. Get in touch via #isdblog if you have tips to share.
From this example you can see all the showtimes coming up in the next few days, remember that this is only shown in the search results, so people can see what films are on without going on your website.
If you like the sound of this and want to implement this to your website please check out this video from Google.

HELEN Golisano was attracted to The Lip Lab concept because it allowed people to personalise a popular accessory – lipstick.
Ms Golisano saw Australia's first Lip Lab in Sydney earlier this year and bought the licence for WA.
She recently launched the specialist centre at Skin Deep on Hay Street, a business she started 25 years ago.
Clients spend about half an hour with one of four consultants and create a personalised lipstick playing around with shade and texture.
