For a second straight World Cup cycle, United States-born Italian international Giuseppe Rossi has fallen just short of competing on the world's grand stage.
Rossi, a New Jersey native, was one of Cesare Prandelli's seven World Cup roster cuts Sunday, experiencing a bit of unfortunate deja vu after being one of the final cuts in 2010 as well. Prandelli opted for forwards Mario Balotelli, Antonio Cassano, Ciro Immobile, Lorenzo Insigne and Alessio Cerci instead of Rossi and Mattia Destro.
As opposed to 2010, when Rossi was a healthy cut, he was fighting an uphill battle after suffering a third major knee injury in two years back in January, even though he had returned to action for Fiorentina prior to being called into pre-World Cup camp as part of Prandelli's 30-man preliminary roster. He started and played 71 minutes against the Republic of Ireland on Saturday, but ultimately did not do enough or prove enough on the fitness level for Prandelli to bring him to Brazil.
MORE: Every nation's World Cup roster
At 27, Rossi is likely down to one remaining cycle to earn a place playing in the World Cup while at the height of his abilities after choosing to represent Italy over the USA in a decision that sparked debate, controversy and plenty of venomous emotion from U.S. fans at the time. Despite missing about four months with his latest injury, he still scored 16 goals for Fiorentina in Serie A this season.

China was recently struck by a very devastating earthquake. Nearly everyone knows this. Tens of thousands died. Schools were hit particularly hard. Why schools?
This article discusses that the central economic policies directly lead to poor school construction: compromising materials to get the job done. It's another question of incentives and responsibility: who is responsible, and what is their incentive for being responsible?
Can the free market provide safe products? Many individuals point to current unsafe products as evidence that the market cannot, and that it consistently fails to do so. But we must ask: who is responsible for safety? Individual consumers? The companies that produce their products? The governments that regulate them? Until we understand who is ultimately responsible, it is difficult to assign blame.
Can the free market provide dangerous products? Sure, but for a very limited time only. Competition immediately shuts them down, unless, of course, the market regulates competition, acting as a barrier to development and growth.
Can the government make dangerous products? Hint:take a look at the "safe" record of NASA spaceflight as evidence of government safety.
It is quite sad to hear millions of Chinese unable to care for themselves, unable to take care of their families, even in an emergency situation. It is sad to see them continually rely on the government for all sorts of aid, from emergency supplies to rescue operations to money to shelter to rebuilding. This is such a contrast to the attitude of self-reliance prophets have continually impressed upon us.
One wonders the level of devastation should the market have been responsible for safety, for school construction, and individuals for emergency preparation, insurance, etc. And this is certainly an admonishment to us to get our houses in order and prepare for what may come.
This indeed was a tragedy. But the scope could have been much lower if freedom and liberty had a larger role.

Oh man, I still need to read this one as well!ReplyDelete
I also haven't started this series despite everyone flailing about it so I totally get it!!ReplyDelete
I read Cinder awhile back and I enjoyed it. I think I rated it 4 stars. I've heard that Scarlet is awesome, so I do want to go back and get to these! But yeah. The hype scares me.ReplyDelete
LOL! I won't yell at you I swear!

14 Aug How Low Can You Go – Or What Is A Good Squat Range?
In one of my recent Facebook and Google+ posts I talked about the importance of maintaining spinal integrity during a squat. A lot personal training clients come to us had back, knee or hip injuries before.
For a long time there was the believe that you should not squat below a 90° angle in the knee. This has changed in the past couple of years and the fitness industry has encouraged people to squat lower.
There have been terrible consequences. Without really knowing how to perform a squat safely, or knowing if they have the physical capabilities people have driven their butt to the floor and are getting injured. I will give you an example from Youtube. The stuff people put there is fantastic learning material on how not to do it!
Start watching at 35s. You only need to watch the first squat. It is bad enough.
Now, despite the fact that there is about everything wrong with this squat, he goes into hyperlordosis, and proceeds to have a terrible butt wink, and then comes up with terrible form, we focus on the hip tucking under!
Todays blog is only about the butt wink!
So what in the world is that. The butt wink is the part when your hip tucks under and you start rounding your back. If you look at the two photos below you will see the difference between a proper bodyweight squat and one where I am going too low.
If done correctly the back should maintain it's natural S-curve.
The red line I used, helps to clarify how spinal integrity is maintained. If you are looking now at the second picture you will see that I am going lower, since we all know, lower is better! Well, maybe not:
My butt is tucking under. For several reasons I am physically not capable of going that low without compromising my back. Those reasons can be tight muscles, structural hip problems, pain, you name it. The pressure on those lumbar discs is exponentially higher in the lower picture. I might not get hurt doing it once or twice or twenty times but with more load or repetition I could get severely injured and risk a permanent impairment. If you want to squat better reduce the range of motion. Don't get me wrong, I am all for a full range squat, if you can perform it safely without getting injured.
Here is how a squat, in this case a front squat should look like. Don't get me wrong. This is not perfect. For one I am not happy with my head positioning, but that is a topic for another time. The lumbar spines integrity is maintained. I am minimizing shearing forces on the disc.
I hope this has been helpful to you. Happy squatting!
Your comments and questions are always welcome.
Have a wonderful day,

I think they'd prefer a nice colourful, sturdy board book or two ...don't you?SvaraRadera
Haha Val, you beat me to it! When I first saw this, I thought, "Ooh pretty." Then when I really looked, I thought, "Someone ought to call Child Services." The mom looks so determined, and the kiddies look miserable. I wonder how heavy that book is, poor baby. When I showed this painting to my youngest daughter she burst out laughing. Margaretha, thanks for making our day.SvaraRadera
Also, by the expression on the older child's face, his thoughts toward his teacher seem less than charitable.SvaraRadera
Yes, I do! They don't look happy at all.
That's exactly how I reacted, I thought it was cute until I really looked at it.
These kids will never read for pleasure - but I'm not sure you did at that time.

As readers have pointed out, the Grand Chamber in Lambert has now rectified its error, by amending paragraph 138 so that it now says in respect of Glass that: 'in its judgment of 9 March 2004 it held that there had been a violation of Article 8 of the Convention'. The excellent blog post by Grégor Puppinck on Lambert nonetheless raises the broader question of the inherent power of international courts and tribunals to reopen their judgments.
All international courts and tribunals have the inherent power, in certain circumstances, to reopen their judgments. It has always been recognized that, as the report of the Advisory Committee of Jurists drafting the Statute of the Permanent Court of Justice, put the matter, although the principle of res judicata is underpinned by the fundamental value that 'for the sake of international peace [a matter decided] should be considered as finally settled', '[j]ustice, however, has certain legitimate requirements' (Procès-Verbaux of the Proceedings of the Committee (Van Langenhuysen Brothers 1920) 744).
This was echoed by Professor Sir Derek Bowett, who observed, in connection with the theme of reopening a final judgment for the purpose of rectification, that such a procedure:
'has the aim of ensuring that the award is "correct … and to this extent [such] procedures are fully consistent with the principle of res judicata and have the same purpose of securing respect for the award. Obviously, an "incorrect" or ambiguous award will not be one to command respect, so that these procedures, if confined within proper limits, will support rather than detract from the principle of res judicata' (DW Bowett, 'Res Judicata and the Limits of Rectification of Decisions by International Tribunals' (1996) 8 African Journal of International & Comparative Law 577, 577).
As the Arbitral Tribunal in the famous Sabotage Claims put it, in certain limited circumstances, '[e]very tribunal has inherent power to reopen' ((1933) 8 RIAA 160, 190). This is clear, too, from the jurisprudence of the International Court of Justice. In Effect of Awards of Compensation the International Court of Justice, dealt with certain judgments of the Administrative Tribunal of the United Nations, observing that it relied, in the first place, on the 'well-established and generally recognized principle of law' according to which 'a judgment rendered by a judicial body is res judicata and has binding force between the parties to the dispute'. The Court then specified that the Statute of the Administrative Tribunal of the United Nations 'has provided for no kind of review', Article 10(2) of the Statute stating that: 'The judgments shall be final and without appeal.' The Court explained that this omission was deliberate, as it had been considered that: 'in the interests of finality and of the avoidance of vexatious proceedings' the Tribunal's judgments should be final and without appeal. Nonetheless, the Court determined, the:
'rule contained in Article 10, paragraph 2, cannot however be considered as excluding the Tribunal from itself revising a judgment in special circumstances when new facts of decisive importance have been discovered; and the Tribunal has already exercised this power' (ICJ Rep 1954 p 47, 53–4).
This power plainly extends to cases where it could be argued that what was at issue was not so much a new fact as an error. The Arbitral Tribunal in Baron de Neuflize v Disconto Gesellschaft ((1928) 7 Recueil des Tribunaux arbitraux mixtes 629) applied the following test, which was also applied in approach was also taken in the famous Trail Smelter (USA v Canada) case ((1941) 3 RIAA 1905, 1957):
'in order to justify revision it is not enough that there has taken place an error on a point of law or in the appreciation of fact, or in both. It is only lack of knowledge on the part of the judge and of one of the parties of a material and decisive fact which may in law give rise to the revision of a judgment'.
International courts and tribunals have broad powers of reopening in the interest of justice and in the interest of ensuring that their judgments command the respect that the principle of res judicata demands.

Located between Hilton Head Island and Savannah, Daufuskie Island is the southernmost Sea Island in South Carolina. It is five miles long by almost three miles wide – approximately 5,000 acres. With over three miles of pristine beachfront, Daufuskie is surrounded by the waters of Calibogue Sound, Intracoastal Waterway and Atlantic Ocean. Haig Point is located at the northern tip of the island.
Daufuskie Island offers a quiet, secure environment, yet also a rich cultural experience, with its environmental preserves, quaint Gullah houses, diverse art galleries and history dating back to the "Daufuskie Fight" during the Yamassee War of 1715–1717. The island is also the setting of Pat Conroy's novel "The Water Is Wide," recounting Conroy's experiences teaching on Daufuskie in the 1960s. The residents of Haig Point have long declared their commitment to preserving a way of life unique to Haig Point and Daufuskie Island. The archaeological restoration of historic properties and passing along of folklore surrounding the history of the island proves this spirit is alive and well.
Archaeologists have traced the inhabited history of the island back 9,000 years and have discovered pottery remnants dating to 7,000 BC. The first inhabitants were the peaceful Cusabo Indians.
In 1664, English sea captain William Hilton first sailed the waters of the South Carolina coast, writing in his log, "The air is clear and sweet, the country very pleasant and delightful; and we would wish all that want a happy settlement of our English Nation, were well transported hither." English traders soon followed and settled in the area.
Of course, there are many facts and legends that surround our mysterious and magical island. It's worth a visit to the Billie Burn Museum to travel through time. Established in 2003 by the Daufuskie Island Historical Foundation, the museum is staffed by volunteer island residents.
There is an old wives' tale suggesting the island was named by the Gullah people as being "da fus cay" out of Savannah. More likely, Daufuskie was named by its earliest inhabitants – the Cusabo Indians. Their native tongue can be translated to "pointed feather" or "land with a point."
The development of the First Union African Baptist Church, now listed as a historical landmark, began in 1879 when John I. Stoddard divided the Mary Field plantation into lots and sold 12 acres to former slaves for the purpose of building a church and developing a cemetery. The land was purchased in 1881 for $82 and the first church was built. The original church building burned in 1884 and was rebuilt in 1885.
From the early 1900s through the 1930s, the church building supported worship service as well as a schoolhouse for the island's children. With islanders seeking employment on the mainland, the island population decreased substantially in the 1950s. During that period the church was closed. In 1968, under the leadership of Rev. C. L. Hanshew, services resumed in the church.
Since 2010, Daufuskie Community Farm and Artisan Village has devoted its energy to passionately advocating sustainable living on Daufuskie Island. With the initial introduction of the community farm that attracted those desiring to have a hands-on way of producing food for their community, a growing desire has occurred to make a difference. The local community has contributed to the planning, construction, and growth of this thriving work by expanding the farm from animals into gardens, orchards, and the new Artisan Village! Please enjoy browsing this informative site and consider how you can be a part of the progress of this exciting work.
Situated along a dirt road deep in Daufuskie's maritime forest, Chase Allen's shop, The Iron Fish Gallery & Studio, is a treasured local landmark. Visitors will find a yard filled with handcrafted metal coastal sculptures and a historic Gullah constructed house covered in vintage finished iron fish, crab, lobster, and mermaid sculptures. More often than not, they'll also find the self-taught "coastal artist" himself, hammering, cutting, forging and welding under the shade of a moss-draped oak.
Silver Dew Pottery, owned by husband and wife Lancy and Emily Burn, has been in business on Daufuskie over 15 years. The Burn family roots run deep on the island, and Lancy's grandfather, Papy, was the Bloody Point lighthouse keeper. Papy spent his time wandering the shores, forests, and dirt roads of Daufuskie, collecting ancient pottery shards and other Native American island artifacts. These were the inspiration for Lancy to make pottery. To this day, Lancy shares his father's impressive collection of shards and artifacts, along with fascinating stories about Daufuskie Island's history, with visitors at Silver Dew Pottery. Beautifully simple and wholly functional, each piece of pottery is signed and many pieces have become treasured collectors' items.
Daufuskie Wine & Woodworks is located on the north end of the island next to Freeport Marina. Daufuskie Wine and Woodworks is owned and operated by Mike and Joanne Loftus who spent 30 years in the northeast and are now full time on Daufuskie.
The couple operates their business out of their beautifully designed post and beam barn, which can also be rented for private events and gatherings. The woodworking shop builds wooden kayaks, surfboards, canoes, and paddleboards. The quaint wine shop operates out of an attached building where many wines and craft beers are curated, and where you can also enjoy organic, sustainable, and low production wines from vineyards throughout
At the Freeport Marina a crushed oyster shell lane leads you past an outdoor bar and sitting area to the Old Daufuskie Crab Company Restaurant. At the end of the lane is the Freeport General Store. Here you will find everything from cold drinks and snacks to t-shirts and gifts. This is one of those unique little stores found only off the beaten path.

If you want to verify whether a company has a track record to guard, ask them to provide references and contact them to see if they can vouch for the said company.

I do have good productive news though! I finished the Challenge blocks and they are on their way to the wonderful host to be sorted and sent out. The challenge was based on women's issues and each person picked their own issue, a block that could be associated with that issue and then a preferred fabric that would be used in all blocks that would come back to you. So, my issue was "Woman in Christ" and I picked a cross block. I picked a beige print to send out to everyone for them to make my blocks. As you can see from the picture, the fabrics I received from all the other ladies led to very different results. Which one do you like best???
A few more updates on my pattern... It is now in the Product Spotlight at the QuiltIndex, thanks to the "Always Open Quilt Shop" and can also be found listed in their newsletter. I hear the kits for it are flying off the shelves at the "Lazy Mazy Quilt Shop" and the variety of options is growing. Several other stores have purchased it as well and I'll be sure to provide a link as soon as the patterns are posted.

So, I just realized that this weeks post is going to be doubled because I forgot to post about last week!! I honestly don't know where my time goes....well at least a little bit of it. The majority of my time these days is spent taking care of my darling little girl, which I wouldn't change for anything!!
Last week I made Brownie Cheesecake Bites. They turned out so good! I love anything cheesecake! I had a good recipe for brownies so I used that and made them in my mini cupcake pan. It's hard to find a recipe for a plain simple cheesecake though that doesn't have about 5lbs of cream cheese. I knew I wouldn't need that much filling so I came up with my own. Just a very basic cream cheese and sour cream mixture. I filled the cups half full with brownie batter, baked them for a bit then pressed down the center and filled it with the cream cheese batter and then baked for a few more minutes.
I don't have a picture of them, unfortunately. My husband really liked them so what I kept at the house went pretty fast:) Apparently so did the ones he took to work, which is what I
was going for!
This week I made Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cupcakes with DOUBLE frosting:)
They actually turned out to be a combination of several different recipes I found online because I couldn't find exactly what I was looking for.
The first one is a Peanut Butter Cream Cheese Frosting and then the second one is a Chocolate Peanut Butter Frosting. I don't think I need to tell you that these are really good because it is Peanut Butter and Chocolate and that is always good:) These are a first for me so I'm curious how my husband
's co-workers liked them!
I need to combine all the recipes somewhere so I can make these again....
Have a great weekend Ya'll!!

Published at Saturday, July 27th, 2019 - 03:35:41 AM. Wedding Venue. By Adal Keller.
Once you're happy you've found the right choice for you, place a provisional booking with them, and if necessary pay a small deposit to secure the date. You'll want to ensure your key family members can make it to Essex for your special day, so phone around and make sure everyone is available, there is nothing worse then booking your wedding only to find someone special is away on holiday and will miss your big day.
There is no doubt that people have to consider their budget before selecting a wedding venue, but it must be considered that the wedding venue provides enough space for the number of guests invited in a wedding. A wedding venue that is very small or too large for the number of guests is not suitable for making the event wonderful, but it can destroy all wedding arrangements.

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration on Friday formally accused the Russian government of stealing and disclosing emails from theDemocratic National Committee and from a range of prominent individuals and institutions, immediately raising the issue of whether President Obama would seek sanctions or other retaliation for the cyberattacks.
In a joint statement from the director of national intelligence, James Clapper Jr., and the Department of Homeland Security, the government said the leaked emails that have appeared on a variety of websites were "intended to interfere with the U.S. election process." The emails were posted on the WikiLeaks site and newer ones under the namesDCLeaks.com and Guccifer 2.0.
"We believe, based on the scope and sensitivity of these efforts, that only Russia's senior-most officials could have authorized these activities," the statement said. It did not name President Vladimir V. Putin, but that appeared to be the intention.
For weeks, aides to Mr. Obama have been debating a variety of possible responses to the Russia action, including targeted economic sanctions and authorizing covert action against the computer servers in Russia and elsewhere that have been traced as the origin of the attacks.
The statement said that the recent "scanning and probing" of election systems "in most cases originated from servers operated by a Russian company," but did not say the Russian government was responsible for those probes.
The president's aides have also been debating whether to publicly attribute the attacks to Russia. Mr. Obama had decided against taking that stance in other cases where cyber techniques were used to steal tens of thousands of emails from the unclassified system of the State Department, the White House and the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
As recently as Wednesday, the director of the National Security Agency, Adm. Michael S. Rogers, refused to accuse the Russians of the cyberattack, even while talking at length about how to secure the American election system from foreign data manipulation and information warfare.
The administration's announcement came only hours after Secretary of State John Kerry called for the Russian and Syrian governments to face a formal war-crimes investigation for attacking civilians in Aleppo and other parts of Syria. Taken together, the two moves mark a sharp escalation in Washington's many confrontations with Moscow this year.
With little more than a month to go before the presidential election, Mr. Obama was under pressure to act now on the hacking, according to a senior administration official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss internal White House deliberations. The timing of Friday's announcement was decided in part because a declaration closer to Election Day would appear to be political in nature, the official said.
The subject came up in the first presidential debate, with Hillary Clinton, the Democratic nominee and a former Secretary of State, blaming Russia for the attacks. Her Republican rival, Donald J. Trump, said there was no evidence that Russia was responsible, suggesting that the Chinese could be behind it, or it "could be somebody sitting on their bed that weighs 400 pounds."
The question now is how Mr. Obama might respond without setting off an escalating cyberconflict. One possibility is that the announcement itself — an effort to "name and shame" — will deter further action.
The identification of Russia was hardly a surprise: In late July, American intelligence officials told The New York Times that they had "high confidence" that the Russian government was behind the hack of the Democratic National Committee.
The hack led to the resignation of Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Democrat of Florida, as chairwoman of the committee, after the leaks suggested the committee had favored Mrs. Clinton in the nominating fight over Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont.

031 Passerella Volante
'Passerella Volante' is a proposal for a pedestrian bridge in Civita di Bagnoregio, Italy. Using the existing concrete pillars from a 20th century concrete bridge, the new lightweight timber construction reestablishes the historic line of the 18th century ridge that has undergone extensive ground erosion. While connecting the villages of Civita and Bagnoregio, the bridge creates a new dialogue between the historic place and the dramatic landscape around. The varied width of the deck allows people to sit and enjoy the panoramic view of the valley and neighboring hill towns. The double-helix structure covering the walkway is equipped with colored canopies, offering protection from wind and sun, and photovoltaic panels that power the evening illumination of the bridge.
Project Details
Objectives: Create a bridge for people to enjoy the site and to improve access to the village of Bagnoregio
Concept: Bridge with seating, exhibition spaces and canopies
Location: Civita di Bagnoregio, Italy
Materials: Laminated timber, steel, aluminum, canvas, solar panels
Structure: V-columns and laminated timber deck; double-helix canopy structure
Technologies: Laminated timber, LED illumination
Assembly: Built up in segments on existing concrete pillars, then removal of old bridge
Dimensions: Varying width 3.5 > 7.5 m, length 280 m, height 5 > 10m Weight: 52,000 kg
Typology: Pedestrian bridge
Design Team: Architecture and Vision - Arturo Vittori and Andreas Vogler
Collaboration: Giuseppe Mosetti,Maddalena Dalla Mura
Engineer: Arup, Rome

State HIT coordinators turn to cloud HIE models
In the face of budgetary crises and a cloudy political climate, two state HIT coordinators eschew traditional HIE infrastructure.
With short budgets, political turmoil and uncertainty surrounding payer and provider interest in state health information exchanges (HIEs), how's a state health information technology (HIT) coordinator to gauge how big to build an HIE? After all, the federal government mandated and funded statewide HIEs, so there's no opting out.
At least two states, Illinois and Iowa, have turned to a modular, cloud-based approach that doesn't necessarily require big investments at the start and can scale up as demand grows. Managers from both states offered updates on their HIEs at the State HIT Connect conference in Washington, D.C.
If cloud vendors can work out thorny privacy and security issues, these cloud HIE models could become viable solutions for states to meet federal mandates without breaking the bank.
Iowa is its own solution provider -- serving as a hybrid cloud host -- for its state HIE, delivering it to health data stakeholders via Software as a Service (SaaS), said Kim Norby, the state's HIT coordinator. Payers and providers will be able to sign up for services such as data analytics on top of basic HIE record querying, depending on how much they want to pay.
The state as the cloud host offers service-level agreements covering such matters as performance, security and disaster recovery. It also calculates the rates it charges based on a participant's storage and processing capacity used, not by per click or by the number of records accessed. With such a SaaS model, Norby said, the state can scale up as demand grows.
Iowa's HIE plans to roll out Direct message exchange and some analytics services this month, with patient record lookup services to follow in December. For now, the state is starting small, for several reasons -- a major factor being a lack of electronic health record (EHR) readiness and maturity.
His co-presenter, John Lekich, project director for the state of Illinois, agreed that's a problem: "The standards environment in this world is a mess. We have some ideas on how to approach [the problem], but we need to work with our clients in figuring out where they are, what kind of EHR they have and what kinds of standards it can support."
Illinois, facing dire budget constraints, opted to outsource its HIE to InterSystems Corp. Building it in a "pay-as-you-go" cloud HIE model has made the project much more affordable than the state commissioning its own large, proprietary infrastructure without knowing how many physicians will ultimately participate.
The vendor, Lekich said, also recruits physicians to participate. Some 500 have signed up so far, even though the state HIE is still in its infancy: Core services such as the master patient index and master provider directory are presently under development.
Eventually, he said, the HIE plans to support a number of services, including emergency department patient data access, meaningful use reporting services for providers, patient specialist referrals and public health reporting.
If cloud vendors can work out thorny privacy and security issues, these cloud HIE models could become viable solutions for states to meet federal mandates without breaking the bank, Harsha Rao, session moderator and principal at McLean, Va.-based Booz Allen Hamilton Inc., told SearchHealthIT in an interview.
"In general, if you look at some of the publicly available HIEs -- Verizon has a cloud-based HIE, Covisint has one -- it allows a state to go in and get the full functionality of an HIE without a whole lot of capital expenditure...and ramp it up," Rao said. "I think that's the key value proposition for cloud-based HIEs."

This past weekend I joined the Bloomington Cycle & Fitness Racing Team at the eighth race of the 2013 Chicago Cross Cup series. The sun was shinning but the weather was still colder than the previous weeks race.
The course was 2.2 miles of hard. Hard. The race had a great mix of elements including off camber turns, singletrack, "Heckle Hill", long straights, and technical turns. This was my first week racing in the cat 3 race after a mid-week cat up. I had a great time, and thought the racing was a little more business as usual with less chaos, but also a lot harder competition. I ended the day in 37th out of 58. I've got work to do :)

Every princess should be kissed. And by a man who knows what he's doing. Beatricia had been enjoying just that with Farris Turner when she was caught.
But running only drives her into the arms of a stranger. A man who wants to offer her one night together, to offer her the experience her life and duties in the city of Sun-Airor--a place set out of space and time--have denied her.
It'll be her only chance before she's forced to enter a loveless marriage...but who exactly is her stranger? And what will kissing him reveal?
Erin: This sci-fi novella is a super quick read. At less than 60 pages, there's not much room for too much story or world building, but the premise was interesting enough. Unfortunately, the execution left a bit to be desired. There's lots of sex, but not too much plot.
She's a Texan, though she drinks her tea plain and NOT sweet. She loves cheesecake, strawberry limeade's from Sonic and her favorite color is purple. In her books, she loves an HEA, but she never minds if the road is rough to get there, as long as the reward is worth the struggle.

On April 18, 1955 Ralph Morse, an ambitious photojournalist for LIFE magazine, went to a funeral with a camera and a case of scotch. Fifty-five years later, LIFE.com is publishing the pictures he took that day, during the funeral and cremation of Albert Einstein.
Einstein had died at 76 of heart failure earlier that morning at Princeton Hospital. His body was cremated after a short service and his ashes were scattered on the grounds of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. The hospital's pathologist removed his brain for preservation and study, in the hopes that scientists could figure out how he got so smart.
Post-autopsy the body was moved to a funeral home, then a crematorium in Trenton, New Jersey for the service and cremation. Morse followed the mourners as they returned to Einstein's house at 112 Mercer Street. He was the only photographer on the scene during these moving moments.
When he returned to the LIFE offices, Morse learned that they wouldn't be publishing the pictures. At the request of Einstein's son, Hans Albert Einstein, the magazine respected the family's privacy while they mourned. Both Morse and LIFE forgot about the pictures until now.

Bowling for Buckets, Frame 16
We didn't have any official plays yesterday, but posted two strong leans in the blog (Thunder-Bulls Under, and the Clippers -4), and both of those leans were winners. Obviously, neither will be counted in my record, but it sounds like a few folks were able to match those leans with some leans of their own and cash a few tickets, and that's what this is really all about.
In terms of what's going on in the NBA, Gilbert Arenas released a statement that his unloaded weapons were in his locker to keep them out of his home and away from his kids, and that they were removed from his locker as part of a practical joke. And really, who doesn't think having a firearm pointed at them is funny? Show me that person, and I'll show you one dead man with no sense of humor. Not laughing? I'm coming for you, next.
Sports Wagering
Magic @ Pacers - This line is OFF. As are many of the lines on this card, but I'll do my best to break down the teams, situationally, and see if we can't try to predict a few things. Orlando concludes their 3-game road trip to start the new year with a game in Indiana against the utterly hopeless Pacers. The Magic are 1-1 on this trip so far, posting a strong 2nd half in a victory in Minnesota before struggling against a surging Bulls club (that suffered a letdown tonight against the Thunder, but that's a story for another paragraph). Now, the Magic, who appeared to be sleepwalking through the first halves of a few of their recent games, will take the floor against a team that wouldn't strike fear into an army of parakeets. This is why, without seeing the line, I think Indiana actually has a decent shot of covering what I believe will be a hefty, hefty, hefty spread. Orlando should be favored by a ton (~7-8 range, I'd imagine), and the best part about this situation is that Orlando is finishing up a road trip, so they're in a letdown spot, and the Pacers are coming off a 43-point loss to the Knicks, so they've hit rock bottom. There is rarely a better time to play a terrible team than the game after they bottom out, because oddsmakers are going to give them a ton of points, and I'd be surprised to see 12% of the public willing to back such a horrid club. I expect a total over 200, as well, and I don't have a strong lean until I see where this thing starts out.
Wizards @ Sixers - Sixers by 3.5 with a total of 207. Philadelphia comes home after a long, 6-game road trip that hit almost every nook (and cranny) of the US. This is a tough, tough spot for Philadelphia, as that first game back is never easy, even after a 3 or 4-game trip, but after a grueling 6-gamer, we are almost definitely going to see the Sixers playing in molasses in the first quarter, or potentially the first half. To their credit, though, they have been playing better basketball lately, picking up 3 wins in those 6 tough road games, and are suddenly exploiting the fact that they have fast, athletic players that can score quickly. Another positive for Philly fans is that the Sixers lost to the Wizards to open up that 6-game road trip, and now, one would think, this revenge spot will wake them up on the homestand a little faster than if they were playing, say, the Bucks. And don't get excited and go running down the comments section to remind me - I know, this is double revenge, as the Sixers lost both games with Washington this year, both on the road. Also working against the Wizards is the presence of the fuzz in their locker room, investigating Shotgun Gilbert and his "Delonte West act." Washington also has a game in Cleveland tomorrow night with the Cavs, a team they generally give a tough time. This is a look-ahead spot for Washington, a team with full-on dysfunction and facing a Philly club on double revenge; I lean Philly. The total looks high, but I think Philadelphia pushes the pace and runs Washington out of the building, I lean Over.
Bulls @ Bobcats - Bobcats by 5 with a total of 188. This side is tip-toeing that fuzzy line between a good value on the underdog, and a trap. The Bobcats return home off a short but wildly successful road trip, going 2-1, with wins in Miami and Cleveland. This team is rolling, and they have, to this point in the season, played extremely well at home, especially forcing turnovers. Is this a letdown spot? Maybe, but I think this team has high expectations, so big wins are more likely to fuel them than slow them down. On the flip side, the Bulls were a hot team, but a pretty bad club, so when they beat Orlando, that was almost like a playoff game for them, at least at this point in the season. So, right on cue, Chicago came back with a dud last night, and got walloped by the Thunder. I believe oddsmakers feel these teams are fairly evenly matched, with the Bobcats getting 2 extra points because of the back-to-back situation for Chicago. The Bulls, by the way, are a perfectly horrible 0-6 on the second night of back-to-backs, and are 0-4 when that second game occurs on the road, losing by an average of 20 points. I think Chicago has a little value as a dog, coming off the home loss, and I think Charlotte might get off to a slow start, coming home off a big win, but when push comes to shove, I'm not sure I can advocate betting against the Bobcats at home. The Bulls are 4-10 ATS on the road, the Bobcats are 10-5 ATS at home, and I'm actually a little glad Charlotte is playing their first game home off a road trip, because otherwise, every stat would point to the Bobs. The total is painfully low, and I can't help but think it stays Under, as Chicago won't break 90.
Bucks @ Nets - Milwaukee by 2 on the road with a total of 190. This should be a real fun one. Tell you guys what - if I actually get through this synopsis, I expect at least one post from each of you readers on how awesome I am for not passing out part way. The Bucks, a majestic 3-11 on the road, take their thrilling act into Jersey, 2-14 at home. Who will win this epic battle of futility? Well, the Bucks are coming off an OT win, and cover at home against the Thunder, but they lost their previous 4, so it sure as hell isn't easy to force a play on them. They are 7-7 ATS on the road, so they're losing inconsistently, in terms of final margin. Obviously, the Nets are not the formidable opponent of, say, Orlando (the Bucks most recent road loss), but Milwaukee has yet to be a road favorite this year, so this is uncharted territory for a crummy team. If you want to talk about a team inspiring almost zero confidence, this could be it...but wait! The Nets might even inspire less! They're 6-10 ATS at home, though it was 4-10 before back-to-back covers against the Knicks (a SU win), and a 60%-effort Cavaliers club. This might be as much credit as the Nets are going to get all season, but they're still an underdog. I think, rather than trying to determine who's going to win this grudge match, we should take a peek at the total. I think the initial impression is to think that these two teams, neither of which can shoot the ball, are destined to go Under, but I'm a little wary of that assumption. The Bucks are due for a breakout offensive game, and the Nets have shot the ball fairly well, with the exception of the Cavs game. I lean Over, amazingly.
Pistons @ Mavericks - Mavs by 9 with a total of 187. This is a screwy one, too. The Mavs return home off getting creamed by the Lakers, and their first home game after 4 on the road. The Pistons head to Dallas as the first half of a back-to-back here and in San Antonio, losers of 9 straight games, and without even one, single cover in that entire stretch. I'm not sure life could get much worse for Pistons fans, though I guess I might eat those words if they lose and don't cover in this one, too (and we can repeat ourselves every game on such a streak). Still, you all get the picture - this team is in the toilet, mostly due to injury and illness, and guys are just now starting to work their way back into gameshape, and the question is the same for this game as it was for their last one, "Is this the one where Detroit finally plays healthy?" And unfortunately, I just don't know for sure. Until Rip Hamilton starts nailing those curling baseline leaners, and until Ben Gordon consistently hits the pull-up 3, and so on and so forth, this team is going to continue to lose, and truthfully, I'd rather back Detroit AFTER they show me some sort of improvement. That's not to say I want to back Dallas in this one, because the Mavs aren't much for playing lesser teams, especially at home, where they're just 5-10 ATS. I would have to lean Detroit in this game if they weren't such a mess, so for now, let's say no real lean. The total looks awfully low, but I think this game stays Under, as I believe Dallas plays sluggish, and Detroit plays like Detroit.
Warriors @ Nuggets - This line is OFF. And I can say right now that I would need a pole of at least 20-feet to touch this one, even once the line comes out. When there are huge injury question marks like the ones on the Nuggets, until we know for CERTAIN who's in and who's out, there is zero reason to take shots in the dark. The Nuggets are pretty bad without Chauncey and Melo, and they're pretty damn untouchable at home with them, so the difference in this game could very well be night and day. It's silly to break it down without knowing which guys are going to play, but I suppose we can peek at the Warriors, if nothing else. Golden State is coming off a rough game in Portland after covering 4 straight spreads. There's no question this team is playing a little better lately, but they may have begun to get a little credit just in time for the beatdown at the Rose Garden. I think Golden State may lose this game no matter who plays for the Nuggets, but again, it's just so risky, and the whole point of handicapping is to isolate value and limit risk. The Warriors lost by 28 in Denver last time, so they'll be a little upset going into this rematch - that previous game, mind you, was the latter half of a back-to-back, so fatigue was a bigger factor than it will be in this one. Let's wait on this game a bit, and attack the line once we see it.
Suns @ Kings - Phoenix by 2.5 with a total of 226. I can't help but laugh, because once again, the Kings look like a good bet. Phoenix, clearly not the same team on the road that they are at home, is laying points in another very difficult place to play. My one concern is that the Suns are coming off getting clobbered in their own building by the Memphis Grizzlies, and may be looking to bounce back after a pair of off days. That being said, on a numbers-only basis, I have Sacramento capped to win this game outright. The Suns beat the Kings by 8 in Phoenix, but the Suns are over 12 points better at home than they are on the road. The Kings, losers of 3 straight, are over 8 points better at home than on the road, and their value is relatively high in this game. With Sactown losing a few games in a row, this is just the time we might see the public jump off the bandwagon, and when we can continue to grab this team in the right spots. This feels like one of those spots, but of course, we're not making any plays until we can see some favorable (or at the very least, not unfavorable) line movement. The Kings are 11-7 at home, the Suns are 8-10 on the road, and Phoenix heads right back home tomorrow to host the Rockets. I like the revenge angle for the Kings, I like that Tyreke Evans has had one game to get his legs back underneath him (a loss to the Mavs), and I like that the Suns just simply do not play as well on the road. I lean Kings on the side. The total looks pretty high, at 226, but I think it's pretty close to the final number. The Kings are an Over team at home, but the Suns are an Under team on the road. I lean just a teeny, tiny bit to the Under, but as I've said before, more of a "tilt."
Grizzlies @ Blazers - This line is OFF, presumably because the Blazers are 40% street-clothed. Portland is also coming off a loss to the Clippers in LA. I can't help but think that this is going to be viewed as the ultimate public fade of Portland, but then, maybe I'm expecting too much, too fast. Here's where I'm coming from: the Grizzlies beat the pants off Phoenix on the road, so in the eyes of the public, I would think this team would be extremely favorable. The Blazers are not only on a back-to-back, they're coming off a loss to the Clippers, and are without, as mentioned, a great portion of their team. If indeed these parameters are met, I lean Portland. Believe it or not, I think there's a decent shot oddsmakers use these key (and somewhat obvious) factors to deflate the value on Memphis, but I suppose only time will tell. That's what makes the line on this game hard to predict. In the event we get a fair line, it's important to point out a) the Blazers have shown the ability to score with their players hurt but not really defend, b) the Grizzlies have been scary-good over the last month (10-4 L14 games), and c) very few handicapping tools are more important than public perception. Let's wait and see on this one, but I have a little feeling in my stomach that the Over might also be an option.
Rockets @ Lakers - This line OFF. Pau Gasol is questionable (and my fantasy team is a wreck if he doesn't come back soon). And as you guys may or may not recall, the Lakers are not the same team without him. Pau Gasol missed the first 11 games of the season, and while the Lakers went a solid 8-3 SU without him, they were just 4-7 ATS, a clear indicator that missing such a reliable rebounder and scorer was key in their inability to "bury" the competition. Now, they may be without Gasol and Artest, two of the Lakers 3 best defenders. Of course, this team still has Kobe Bryant, but I think it's hugely important to note the competition here. The Rockets give the Lakers fits! Houston beat the Lakers in LA by 10 earlier this year after losing by just 1 point to LA in Houston, covering both games. And the Shane Battier Doctrine rules again. Now, without Gasol, and if Battier can do his usual job on Kobe (that is to say, slow him down just enough), I wouldn't put it past Houston to come away with another upset victory. Unfortunately, oddsmakers know what we know, and I think this line comes out shorter than most would expect. Still, that might almost be a good sign that we're not alone in our feelings on this game. I think Kobe plays with every ounce of strength he's got, but I think the Rockets make a great game of it. I have a weird feeling pointing me towards a potential Over play, since I think folks overreact to injuries on the Under; the most common result of an injury to a big man is a series of smaller guys getting to the rim easier rather than just the straight loss of that big man's production.

Half and whole pigs are available for purchase, they will be ready for butcher the beginning of October, Pricing for whole pigs is $3.75/pound based on hanging weight (180-220 pounds average) this includes butchering, packaging and freezing. Half pig pricing would be $1.85/pound hanging weight.
Retail cuts of pork are available at our farm store and at local farmers markets we attend. Please note that we are a small farm and do run out of some items until our next processing time.

Scala is statically typed. Yet we rarely use it to our advantage. For example let's say you have a function with the signature:
def convert(a: Double, b: Double): String
Of course, the author hasn't written a comment, and clearly didn't expressively label the variables. So lets fix it:
def reverseGeocode(latitude: Double, longitude: Double): String
The types are the same, but the variable names now relate exactly what the function does. Most people stop there.
But its so easy to flip the order of the arguments, especially if they're passed around in a long chain. What if we explicitly label the type using a type alias?
type Latitude = Double type Longitude = Double def reverseGeocode(point: (Latitude, Longitude)): String
This helps with documentation, but doesn't let compiler validate we're passing correct values – any tuple of doubles will be accepted as valid input. We can of course create a case class
case class GeoPoint(latitude: Double, longitude: Double) def reverseGeocode(point: GeoPoint): String
Works for this case, but not always, as the arguments may not fit neatly into a struct that can be given a name, and should be kept separate. We can wrap each value into a case class:
case class Latitude(value: Double) case class Longitude(value: Double) def reverseGeocode(lat: Latitude, long: Longitude): String
But now we've boxed the Double, which has a performance impact if we were to use it in a loop. Luckily Scala gives us a solution:
case class Latitude(value: Double) extends AnyVal case class Longitude(value: Double) extends AnyVal def reverseGeocode(lat: Latitude, long: Longitude): String
This is good, but does require another hop to get at the value, which could get verbose if widely used. Scalaz also offers Tagged Types, which help make the type more explicit and compile safe, so are a good alternative if you have the Scalaz dependency already in your project.
Too often in data science and analysis code I see primitive types. I don't know if they're left that way because of performance, or laziness (most likely the latter), but assigning an explicit type helps catch errors and provides implicit documentation better than expressive naming.

Idaho Auto Insurance
Yes, our website's name is HomeInsurance.com, but you should know we also help consumers find auto insurance as well. Each state has its own requirements, and we've dug through the rules to give Idaho drivers insight on required coverages and potential discounts.
First, the state requires bodily injury and property damage liability coverages for all drivers. These two coverages protect you from paying medical bills or for costly repairs to someone's vehicle out-of-pocket if you cause a collision that injures someone else or damages their property, including their vehicle. Idaho requires the following minimum coverage:
- $25,000 coverage for bodily injury per person
- $50,000 coverage for total injury per accident
- $15,000 coverage for property damage
Here's the thing – minimum coverage might not be enough. Remember, you're personally responsible for anything exceeding your limit.
Potential Idaho auto insurance discounts
Idahoans may be eligible to receive the following discounts on car insurance:
- Good student discount: If you have a student on your policy that's earning B's or better on their report card, you could reap the benefits.
- Good driving discount: If you've gone a period of years without a collision or filing a claim, you could qualify for the good driver discount.
- Multi-car discount: Need to insure multiple cars on the same policy? You could save money by doing so.
- Multi-policy discount: Insure your home, car, boat, etc. with the same provider and you could qualify for a bundling discount.
- Homeowners discount: Owning your home could actually save you money on car insurance.
- Senior discount: If you're an Idaho resident over the age of 65 and have passed a defensive driving course, you qualify for this discount.
- Safety features discount: Most vehicles have seatbelts and airbags, but if your car also has features such as anti-lock brakes and anti-theft devices, you could save on your policy.
Call us today and speak with a licensed insurance agent to discover how much you might be able to save on an Idaho auto insurance policy.

- - - She has a lot in common with this guy - - -
As 'Supreme Leader' of the CHRC, Jennifer Lynch is spinning the story the way her Iranian counterpart tried to spin the election . . ... with similar results.
Not at all pleased with the 'frontal assault' of invectives 'hurled' at her commission, Jenny would like to take her ball and go home, inviting only those in Parliment over to play.
As an ordinary Canadian, I'm 'uninformed or misinformed' according to Ms Lynch. She claims to want a debate, although she "wants it to be an informed debate in the right forum, a place where people can have an informed dialogue. [That place is] Parliament, and parliamentary committees".
I've met my MP, Lee Richardson, and he's a pretty ordinary guy. I sure hope he can understand the detailed nuance of the CHRC argument that the rest of us seem to miss.
My guess? Lee and every other elected parlimentarian is going to be able to see right through Jenny. Her position is absolutely unsustainable under the hot lights of truth and freedom. As the Calgary Herald editorial board points out, these 'despotic forums' are easily recognized as such by us 'ordinary Canadians'.

Mortals who are entangled in losing or observing weight once in a while enquire the surgeons, "How many calories must I take to hold or lower weight?" Medical professionals and dieticians respond that men should take close to 2500 calories, adult females around 2000 calories, and youngsters close to 1600 calories a day. In fact, the response to the enquiry "How many calories must I ingest to maintain or drop off weight?" relies on lifestyle, the physical condition, inheritable factors, presence or absence of diseases and a great many other ingredients. If life is sedentary, 1200-1500 calories a day are needful; inert condition of life takes 1400-1800 calories daily; engaged fashion of life needs 1800-2200 calories a day; massive energetic exercising is covered by 2500-3000 calories daily. As for calories, people should digest just about 11 times of the organism weight in lb daily. In case if the weight is 140 pounds, individuals must consume 140×11=1540 calories.
How many calories must I ingest to maintain or drop off weight deprived of exercise?
Men of science substantiate that 1956 calories daily are obligatory to keep the up-to-the-minute weight deprived of exercise. Nearly 1913.4 calories daily are necessary to accomplish the destination weight lento and keep that weight without exercise. If the present-day calorie intake for weight loss is decreased to 1456 calories daily, a patient will be able to lower one pound per week deprived of exercise. In case if the current caloric uptake is accrued to 2456 calories per day, the patient will addition 1 lb weekly.
How many calories must I eat up to preserve or drop off weight with physical exercise?
In case if an individual works during 30 min each day, the caloric uptake may be raised to 2164 calories per day and the actual weight is yet being maintained. If the patient practices physical exercises for 60 minutes each day, the caloric uptake might be accrued to 2424 calories daily to preserve the ongoing weight.
If the exercising lasts during 30 minutes each day, a man or a woman will be able to arrive at the aim weight by means of 2116.3 calories per day. In case if the exercise lasts within 60 min every day, the patient can achieve the goal weight by means of 2369.9 calories per day.
How many calories and macronutrients must I consume to maintain or decrease weight?
Investigators say that 50 % of the calories must be insured by carbs, 30 per cent by fats, and 20 per cent by proteins. One gm of protein gains 4 calories, one g of fat stimulates 9 calories, and one gram of saccharide carries 4 calories.
Mortals necessitate 244.5 grams of saccharides, 64.5 gs of fat, and 97.8 gm of protein per day for 1956 calories to hold the weight of 130 lb.
Individuals need 239.2 gm of carbs, 63.1 gm of fat, and 95.7 grammes of protein daily for 1913.4 calories to hold the finish weight of 120 lb.
Significance of diet and exercise
Caregivers suppose that weight loss methods is important for the patient if he needs to reduce weight in a commonsensical and cost-efficient fashion, he or she must exercise every day. The person must likewise observe the substantial diet so as the organism rested wholesome. Exercising makes marvels for the body since it betters the muscular activity, blood circulation, and makes cells and body tissues to become better and stronger. The good meals allow for the body to have all it necessitates: proteins, fats, saccharides, minerals, microelements, vitamins, water and calories. The normal total of all the nutrients the body claims serves to hold heart, liver, kidneys, stomach, muscular tissues, and cutis sound. In case if an individual practices physical exercises minimum3 times daily for 30-60 min each time, and in case if person eats on curative fruit, vegetables, meet, fish, bread, and H2O, he or she will become sound and slender. In case if a man or a woman is stout, he should exclude the bad meals such as muffins, cakes, sweet-flavored foods, salty foods, beefburgers, pizza and alternate to the meals like salads, fruit, vegetables, and a good deal of fluid. The most important subject is to have the powerful meals. In fact this info could help you to prevent high cholesterol effects.

Published: September 1, 2016
Genre: Contemporary Fiction
Source: Goodreads Giveaway
From the outside, Sycamore Glen, North Carolina, might look like the perfect all-American neighborhood. But behind the white picket fences lies a web of secrets that reach from house to house.
Up and down the streets, neighbors quietly bear the weight of their own pasts—until an accident at the community pool upsets the delicate equilibrium. And when tragic circumstances compel a woman to return to Sycamore Glen after years of self-imposed banishment, the tangle of the neighbors' intertwined lives begins to unravel.
During the course of a sweltering summer, long-buried secrets are revealed, and the neighbors learn that it's impossible to really know those closest to us. But is it impossible to love and forgive them?
My Thoughts:
I'll give my review away right now...this was one of the most frustrating books I've read in a long time.
There were things in this book that piqued my interest. In fact, most of this book was interesting--but as one book it just didn't work. There were too many plot lines and too many characters and, because of that, I was never able to get into any one of them. The characters--Everett, Bryte, Jencey, Lance, Zell, and Cailey (I told you there were a lot of them)--are all initially intriguing--but because Whalen jumps between them so much, we never get more than a cursory introduction to them.
The same can be said for the story lines. We have a love triangle introduced between Everett, Bryte, and Jencey but that is sort of left open while Jencey is put into another story line. There are also some rather dark elements in some of the story lines that needed far more care and attention than Whalen gives them. In the end, none of the story lines rose to enough prominence to make the book feel like a completed work.
Honestly, if Whalen had broken the story lines apart into separate novels and published them as a series, she might have ended up with 3-4 successful novels instead of one unsuccessful book. I think Whalen had the right kernels of a decent story, but was never able to let them germinate.
Whalen does have a readable voice and I think she has great potential, but that isn't enough to save this book.
I won a copy of this book through a giveaway on Goodreads. I was encouraged, but not expected, to write a review. I received no compensation for this post.
