Japanese animation
The Japanese animation industry has attracted much interest in the West, with English-speaking fans avidly adopting Japanese terminology such as anime (short for "animation", but used almost exclusively to refer to animated features originating from Japan) and even otaku (derogatory term meaning "obsessive fan").
The best known anime director in Japan is Hayao Miyazaki, founder of Studio Ghibli and famous for "My Neighbor Totoro," "Spirited Away," and "Princess Mononoke."
As in the West, Japanese animation tends to follow Japanese comic book styles (called manga). An author/illustrator of a manga is called a manga-ka. Many anime begin as manga in magizines such as Weekly Shounen Jump, one of the most popular compilations in Japan.
In recent years, the translation process of anime and manga has come under criticism for the process of "Americanization". This process is the editing of the original works so that they can be more acceptable for the American public. Episodes are known to be shortened to add more time for commercials. Religious influences and homosexuality are removed so that anime can be shown and marketed to younger audiences. Some directors adopt a policy of "no cuts", where their works cannot be altered and are more literal translations. If this condition is not met, the director will not allow his work to be translated. Some groups of Bilingual speakers have, thus, taken to providing 'unofficial' translations for the general public, uploaded to the internet for free. This was one of the major controversies of the SOPA bill that was recently a major issue.
Many of Anime's genres fall into the following categories:
Shonen (少年)- Japanese for young boy, Shounen is the most popular genre in Japan and the most well known outside the country. Aimed at young teen boys, Shounen are often action/adventure series featuring martial arts, Japanese and Chinese folklore, simplistic animation and conceptual fantasy and science fiction. Popular titles that have been translated to English include Naruto, Bleach, One Piece, Dragonball/Z, Gundam, Fullmetal Alchemist, Prince of Tennis, and Sgt. Frog. Pokémon, the 1990s superfad, is also Shonen.
Shojo (少女)- Japanese for young girl, Shoujo is also popular outside of Japan, with such famous dubs as Sailor Moon, Cardcaptor Sakura (Cardcaptors in America), Tokyo Mew Mew and Fruits Basket. Within Shoujo there is the subgenre of Magical Girl, where an otherwise average Japanese girl has magical powers with which she saves the world. More often than Shounen, Shoujo are romance tales or rely heavily on romance in the plot. The Heroine is often saving the world by night and snagging the boy of her dreams by day.
Seinen (青年)- Japanese for young man, Seinen (or seijin) targets the 18 to 40 male audience, though it is not uncommon to find much older men reading manga on the train ride to work. Good examples of seinen anime and manga include: Ghost in the Shell, Gunslinger Girl, Bartender, Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou, Cowboy Bebop, Elfen Lied, Aria, Bokura no, Hetalia: Axis Powers, as well as the feature films of Satoshi Kon and Makoto Shinkai. Titles like Cowboy Bebop and Ghost in the Shell are considered classics, while Cowboy Bebop was the first anime aired on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim. Seinen shares many elements with shounen, but is often darker and more mature (or immature, depending on the sense of humor) than Shounen, with horror, mystery and suspense. Sometimes, seinen manga features graphic violence, for example in the film Akira. Often it will also take a slice-of-life look at stories, and provide deeper character insights than shounen action-driven works.
Josei (女性)- Japanese for young woman, and targets women in the 18 to 40 age band. Can also be referred to as 'redisu' and 'redikomi', the latter being taken from the English 'lady comic'. It differs from shoujo in that the artistic styles of josei tend to be more realistic and restrained, and the stories tend to be more realistic and mature. Examples of josei manga and anime are Paradise Kiss, Hataraki Man and Honey and Clover.
Kodomo (子供向け)- Japanese for child, Kodomo are the cartoons most like American cartoons, as in for small children. They are often moral teachings with simple animation. Astro Boy is the first anime brought to America, having the notoriety that comes with being a child icon for 60 years. Modern titles include Hamtaro and Doraemon.

By JOHN and CONNIE WICKMAN and FAMILYOrangeville
In reference to the Owen Price tribute that was published in the Emery County Progress on May 16, and written by his sister, Dora, we as the John and Connie Wickman family would like to clarify some of the comments that were made in regards to our family.
We took it very personal that it was insinuated that Owen generously provided us with our home, our business and whatever we need. Through many years of hard and honest diligent work we have acquired these things for ourselves. In addition, our children have worked very hard and have earned their own way with absolutely no help from anyone.
Whatever we have accomplished, we have done it all on our own.

Body Condition Scoring
Download the Body Condition Scoring summary
At Weaning Time: Don't Forget Momma
Take time to collect cow weights and body condition scores.
Improved reproduction and feed efficiency are two goals all cattle producers strive to attain. They are also two of the harder goals to measure. Producers spend hours looking for ways to improve conception and herd productivity.
An easy tool available to assist producers in the evaluation process of their cow herds is body condition scores (BCS). These scores allow producers to achieve optimum reproduction level and reduce feed costs.
"Body condition scoring is an easy method to assess the nutritional status of the herd and the impact of an operation's nutritional program," says John Hall, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University Extension beef specialist. "By using body condition scoring at critical times, cattlemen can make decisions on when to supplement. Also, considerable research indicates that body condition score before calving and during the breeding season are directly related to reproductive efficiency."
Hereford breeders are encouraged to collect and report cow weights and BCS at weaning. To be compliant with Whole Herd Total Performance Records (TPR™), producers have a seven-day window before and after weaning to collect cow weight and BCS. Hereford breeders must report both a cow weight and BCS for the data to be included in national cattle evaluation.
"This data should be collected because it will give us an opportunity to look at some cow maintenance issues, which, in turn, could be directly related to fertility and longevity," says Jack Ward, American Hereford Association (AHA) chief operating officer and director of breed improvement. "Today we do not calculate a mature weight EPD (expected progeny difference), but we will obviously use this data in our current indexes, and it could also be used in calculating some sort of stayability or survivability EPD or index.
"This will be a trait that could really prove to be important to the genetic analysis," he adds. "We are continually looking at ways to improve efficiency in the cow herd, and this data could be very important in finding the genetics that will make the proper changes."
Getting started
Hall has taught body condition scoring to students and producers for several years, conducting workshops and research on the subject. He says the scores are a visual estimate of body energy reserves, so a trained eye and a notebook are all that is really needed when scoring cows. He does encourage producers to utilize reference publications before starting the process.
The most common BCS system ranks cows from 1-9 (See Figure 2).
Hall says for the novice, it is easier to learn the process if cattle are run through the chute and key areas of the cow are examined closely and felt. The key areas include hooks, pins, ribs, backbone and tailhead. After the cow is examined in the chute and a score is given, based on palpating the key areas, the cow should then be viewed after being let out of the chute. This final observation will help train the novice's eye. An experienced person helping during the first body condition scoring session is a great asset, Hall adds.
"The rancher who is experienced in body condition scoring can walk, drive or ride through a herd of cows and body condition score them by sight," Hall says. "Alternatively, the cows can be brought to a corral for easier viewing."
Collecting data
For utilization in Hereford cattle evaluation, the key time to collect and record BCS is at weaning, but the process of evaluating cow BCS is something that is useful year-round. According to Hall, there are four key times to BCS cows:
- 60-90 days before calving;
- Weaning;
- Calving; and
- Beginning of the breeding season.
"From a management perspective, 60-90 days before calving is the most important time," Hall says. "Because of the clear relationship between BCS at calving and rebreeding success, we want to make sure cows are on target to calve in the ideal BCS. If they are too thin at this time, producers still have time to increase BCS on cows before calving.
"The second most important time to score cows is at weaning. The BCS at weaning indicates the ability of the cow to adapt to the environment or the adequacy of the nutrition program. Also, weaning BCS can be used to determine which cows need to gain weight between weaning and calving. Finally, from a genetic evaluation perspective, BCS at weaning will be used to adjust the cow body weight at weaning to estimate mature cow size," Hall explains.
Evaluating BCS is something everyone who helps on a farm or ranch should be trained to do, but for reporting purposes, it's best for consistency if one person scores all the cows reported to the AHA.
Utilizing the data
BCS allows producers to sort cows according to nutritional needs, thereby improving the efficiency of their nutrition program. This is possible because of the strong relationship between body condition and weight change.
Hall explains that although it is critical to have cows in good condition at calving, BCS at calving can be used to plan the nutrition program from calving to breeding. Cows that are thin at calving but gain weight from calving to breeding have increased pregnancy rates compared to cows that remain thin. BCS at the beginning of the breeding season is an indicator of breeding season success. Cows that are thin at the beginning of the breeding season will respond to increased nutrition, but the effect on pregnancy rates may be limited.
Research shows that cows in BCS 5-6 at calving and breeding will have higher pregnancy rates than cows that are in BCS lower than 5. The critical body condition for first-calf heifers is BCS 6-7.
Hall says, aside from the optimum BCS differences, there is little difference in body condition scoring first-calf heifers, young cows and mature cows. "Older cows (older than 10 years) create a unique situation because the natural 'sagging' of the ribs and body tends to make backbone, hips and ribs more apparent in older cows," he says. "Cattlemen should concentrate on fat deposits in the brisket, tailhead and pins of these cows when making a BCS determination."
Thin cows (BCS 4 and less) need to be managed to gain weight precalving and from calving to breeding in order to increase reproductive success, Hall says. Cattlemen may have to feed thin cows separately from the main herd to more economically increase BCS on these cows.
"Cows that are BCS 4 at weaning and have a large, healthy calf need only to be managed to gain weight and BCS to be at BCS 5 or 6 by calving," he says. "Cows that are less than BCS 4 at weaning may indicate a mismatch between cow type and the ranch forage resource or an inadequate nutritional program.
"Cows that are BCS 8 or 9 before calving can be placed on lower-quality feeds or pastures and allowed to lose weight until they are BCS 6 without reducing calf vigor or subsequent reproductive performance. In contrast, cows that are BCS 8 or 9 at weaning and produced a lightweight calf at weaning are unproductive cows that may need to be culled."
To improve body condition, Hall says there's not a specific technique or feeding strategy; however, there are guidelines to increase BCSs.
For example if 45 days prior to calving a cow is a BCS 4, she needs to gain 1 BCS (40 to 85 lb.) in 45 days.
He encourages cattlemen to consult their local Extension specialist or nutritionist to determine the best nutrition program to fit their environment and available resources.
Research shows that failure to monitor body condition prior to key production periods can be disastrous to cow herd productivity. Take the time to collect weights and score cows each fall, and then use the data to take action and improve the productivity of your herd and your customers' herds.
Figure 2: Dam's body condition score reference chart
BCS 1 – Emaciated:
Cow is extremely emaciated. Tailhead and ribs project prominently. No detectable fat over backbone and hips.

Somewhat emaciated. Tailhead and ribs are less prominent. Backbone still sharp.
BCS 3 – Thin:
Ribs are less sharp but definable. Some fat on spine.
BCS 4 – Borderline:
Ribs not obvious. Some fat over ribs and hip bones. The backbone can be identified but feels rounded, not sharp.
BCS 5 – Moderate:
Good overall appearance. Palpable fat cover on the ribs.
BCS 6 – High Moderate:
Firm pressure needed to feel backbone. High degree of fat is now palpable over ribs and around tailhead.
BCS 7 – Good:
Fleshy condition. Carries considerable spongy fat over ribs and around tailhead.
BCS 8 – Fat:
Very fleshy and over-conditioned. Large fat deposits over ribs and around tailhead. Backbone almost impossible to palpate.
BCS 9 – Extremely fat:
Cow has lost definition. Hips buried in fat tissue, looks blocky. May be impaired in mobility. Bone structure no longer visible.

It's one of the bigger games on Eldorado's football schedule — if it's not the biggest — right now.
It's a game that Eldorado head coach Brandon Hampton says his Eagles deserve to be in after a blistering 5-0 start to begin the 2013 Black Diamond Conference campaign.
Eldorado will play host Fairfield, also undefeated, Friday night at Boz Adams Field where the sixth year head coach says there are plenty of similarities between the two ballclubs.
"Fairfield is a team a lot like ours. They're physical, they're built on running the football and they play good defense. They'll hit you and force you to turn it over. It's really going to come down to if we're able to run the ball, stop them and keep from having the turnover."
Hampton said big games like Friday night's will come down to three or four big plays, ala Eldorado's game against Carmi-White County Week 2.
"A year ago, Fairfield won those plays," Hampton said. "They hit us with two long play-action passes and the team that is able to do that this week, puts themselves in the best position to win the game."
Fairfield has some explosive playmakers on offense. Quarterback Joseph Ridget does a good job throwing the football and making plays with his legs, while halfback Derek Greifzu is the leading rusher in the BDC. He averages close to 11 yards per carry.
Historically, the last three years, Hampton recalls playing some real knock-down, drag-out games with the Mules. He doesn't expect year four to be any different.
"We came out on two of those three. They got us last year and I anticipate it being real similar this week. We have to make sure we improve from Week 5 to Week 6 because, the scoreboard says we won 46-6 against Hamilton County, but we didn't play as well as we needed too. Particularly defensively. We were able to force a lot of turnovers, but we didn't play as well as we could have."
This week of practice has been spent cleaning up Hampton said with an emphasis on fine turning the Eagles defense back to their dominance they have enjoyed most of the year as being one of the best in southern Illinois. To date, Eldorado has given up just 12 points to the opposition.
Up until last Friday, Eldorado had given up six points, prior to giving up six to the Foxes in the first half. Hampton was impressed with how his club responded in the second half.
"It's been easy sailing for us for the most part and by halftime we have been subbing, so it was good for us to deal with some adversity and rallying back in the second half.
"I like how we were able to throw the ball. Nathan Burnett gets better each and every week. He did a good job in play-action situations a couple of times getting the deep ball over the top of the defense. It was fun to see Kaleb Williams play as well as he did on offense and on defense. Tristan Morse really stepped up defensively. He's a guy we have been waiting to come along after really having a good junior campaign."

Countries, Cities, Companies and Organizations Pledge Climate Neutrality at UN Climate Conference in Poznan06/
Poznan/Nairobi, 7 December 2008 - As nearly 200 governments are meeting to move forward a new global deal to address climate change at the UN climate conference, an increasing number of countries, cities, companies and organizations are committing to a low-carbon future by joining the Climate Neutral Network (CN Net).The CN Net - established by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) - brings together countries, cities, companies and organizations that have set some of the world's most ambitious greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets.UN Under-Secretary-General and UNEP Executive Director Achim Steiner said: "From a hip hotel which blends Shanghai's tradition and modernity to Thailand's largest supermarket chain to the biggest outdoor music event that communicates the environmental message to the global audience, the new Climate Neutral Network participants bring the low-carbon vision for the future to millions of people.""I am also pleased to welcome the Pacific island nation of Niue, which is joining the CN Net in the country category. For many small island developing States like Niue climate neutrality is more than just a concept - it is a matter of survival. Finally, the two cities coming on board - Slough in the UK and Waitakere in New Zealand - exemplify that addressing climate change is part and parcel of urban sustainability," he added. Are you climate NIUE-tral? The Pacific island nation of Niue is the new country coming on board the Climate Neutral Network. It is hoping to become carbon neutral in the near future. Niue's own annual CO2 emissions are approximately 0.003 million metric tonnes for a population of about 1,700. The Government of Niue focuses in particular on the transport and energy sectors as the major contributors of greenhouse gas emissions. It promotes the use of energy saving appliances and compact fluorescent light bulbs, and, in the case of transport, enforces maximum speed limits and encourages carpooling. It also works to cut down carbon emissions through better waste management and harnessing renewable energy resources.Slough steps to climate neutrality A historic stopping point for coaches travelling between London and Bath, Slough today has a population of nearly 120,000 and is one of UK's most culturally diverse communities. The Slough Borough Council's strategy includes having all public transport and council vehicles running on cleaner fuel and cutting its CO2 emissions by one-fifth in the next 20 years. Waitakere is New Zealand's fifth largest city representing nearly five percent of the country's population. The city's Action Plan on Climate Change and Energy targets stabilizing per capita greenhouse gas emissions by 2010 and reducing them by 80 percent by 2051.In climate neutral company Companies and organizations big and small are joining the Climate Neutral Network. The eleven new participants are being announced today in Poznan are: URBN Hotels, China's first carbon neutral hotel; Tesco Lotus, Thailand's largest supermarket chain; Live Earth, organizer of large-scale environmental music & entertainment events; Ementor Group, Scandinavia's leading IT provider; First Climate Group, Europe's leading carbon asset management company; Biosphere Capital, carbon trading, technology and finance company; GHG, carbon management company working in Portuguese-speaking countries; Aeris Futuro Foundation, which created Poland's first CO2 calculator; IDEA, Paraguay's Institute for Environmental Law and Economics; Rios Tropicales, a Costa Rican eco-adventure company; and Yachay Wasi, a Peruvian NGO planting one million native trees in the Andes.For More Information Please Contact Nick Nuttall, UNEP Spokesperson and Head of Media, on Tel: +254 20 7623084, Mobile: +254 733 632755, or when traveling: +41 795965737, or e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com Or: Anne-France White, Associate Information Officer, on Tel: +254 20 762 3088, Mobile: +254 (0)728 600 494, or e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com: Xenya Cherny Scanlon, Information Officer, Climate Neutral Network, on Tel: +254 20 762 4387, Mobile: +254 721 847 563, or e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com, http://www.unep.org/climateneutral Notes to EditorsInformation about the participants URBN Hotels, based in Shanghai, prides itself on being the fist carbon neutral hotel in China. The hotel is implementing a wide range of measures to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions, including water based air conditioning system, low voltage lights and electronic equipment which is automatically turned off when guests leave their rooms. An ivy 'green wall' in the hotel's courtyard increases thermal insulation, air purification, carbon sequestration and acoustic absorption. Ninety percent of materials used in URBN Hotels are recycled, including wood panels from Shanghai's old buildings.With over 450 stores and 28 million customers per month, Tesco Lotus is Thailand's largest supermarket chain, which has recently opened the first "green store" in Asia. Tesco Lotus is committed to at least halving carbon emissions from its existing operations by 2020. Live Earth is a US-based organization which leverages the power of music and entertainment to focus the world's attention on the issues and solutions of climate change. In 2007, Live Earth staged a 24-hour music event across all seven continents, featuring 150 of the world's leading artists and billions of fans worldwide participating. From planning to execution, the organizers placed the highest priority on ensuring sustainability of these massive simultaneous events. Successfully achieving carbon neutrality in 2007, Live Earth developed the Green Event Guidelines, a set of approved solutions to producing carbon-free and sustainable live events, which account for all elements of production from waste to power to transportation.The Ementor Group is the leading provider of IT infrastructure products and services in the Nordic and Baltic region. It has pioneered a recycling scheme for servers, laptops and other IT equipment which is successfully marketed in Denmark, Norway and Sweden and soon to be implemented in Finland. The company has already cut its greenhouse gas emissions by one-third and expects to be climate neutral by 2010. First Climate Group, based in Germany, is one of Europe's leading carbon asset management companies and an investment advisor to the Post 2012 Carbon Credit Fund established by the European Investment Bank. The company minimizes its own carbon footprint from travel and energy consumption, and offsets unavoidable emissions through verified emission reductions.Biosphere Capital, which operates from its headquarters in Singapore, is an international advisory, project management and trading company in the areas of clean and renewable energy, specializing in emissions reduction technologies and finance. The company believes that it is possible to achieve exceptional financial returns in the context of the low-emissions economy.Based in Portugal, GHG is a company that promotes climate change solutions through carbon management, including mitigation, offsetting and certification under the "e)mission" brand. GHG works with Brazil, Angola, Mozambique, Cape Verde, Sao Tome and Principe, and Guinea Bissau to help them develop clean energy technologies with carbon finance.Working under the motto "Let's create a climate for the future", Polish NGO Aeris Futuro Foundation catalyzed the planting of 450,000 trees across the country. The Foundation also developed the first CO2 calculator in Poland to measure carbon footprint and identify the number of trees needed to offset its effects.IDEA - Insituto de Derecho y Economia Ambiental (Institute for Environmental Law and Economics) - in Paraguay became climate neutral in 2008. In addition to reducing energy consumption in the office, IDEA supports a project in Brazil which works with communities to substitute firewood by rice husks. Rios Tropicales is an eco-adventure company that operates throughout Costa Rica. The company's Rainforest Eco-lodge was built in 1991 entirely in accordance with green construction principles and is powered by 100 percent renewable energy. The company is also actively involved in reforestation and watershed protection projects across the country. Yachay Wasi means 'house of learning' in Quechua, the language of the indigenous peoples of Peru, descendants of the Inca civilization. The NGO carries out reforestation projects in the spectacular natural areas surrounding Cuzco in the Peruvian Andes. In December 2008, at the beginning of the rainy season, Yachay Wasi is launching 'A Million Native Trees' campaign.

Way too small
"I ordered these on piperlime five months ago and they were wayyy too small! I'm usually a 9 so I returned them for a 10 and still too small :( I'm absolutely in love with these shoes but not worth the money to just sit in my closet. I would definitely size up at least one full size."

Starting Position: Stand with your feet hip-width apart at the end of the ladder so it is directly in front of you.
In a running-type movement, explode off your left leg straightening the knee and hip and driving up through the toes, while picking up the right leg to step into the next square.
When coming off the left leg the right knee is explosively driving straight up while maintaining a tall, straight spine. When the right knee is raised, the left arm should be forward and the right arm back.
Plant the right foot in the next square forward, explode off the right foot straightening the knee and hip and driving up through the toes. Drive the left knee up toward the chest. Keep the torso tall and straight and the arms driving forward and back to help maintain forward momentum.
Continue running through the ladder in this manner, placing one foot in each square and emphasizing explosive leg action to rapidly drive up through the ankles, knees and hips every time you push off and move forward. Keep your chest lifted, your spine straight and tall and use explosive arm swings to help maintain forward momentum through the course of the ladder.
Exercise Variation: Instead of placing one foot in each square, increase the leg action to place two feet in each square; maintain rapid arm action swinging the arms forward from the shoulder joint. Focus on explosive actions with your legs and pick the knees up rapidly--the faster you pick your knees up, the faster and more explosive you can move your leg into triple extension to drive your momentum forward.

For 6 months, Gordon and Renee from Denim Therapy are wearing raw denim jeans everyday, and documenting their experience on Tumblr. Every Friday you can follow their progression here. This was week 1 (see last weeks article here).
Raw denim is stiff. Without having undergone any of the finishing treatments or final washings after the jeans are produced, a pair of raw jeans can almost stand up on their own. After a full week of wear, our jeans are beginning to soften and take shape. Find out how each pair has progressed below.
Renee: Since new raw denim jeans are so stiff, the first few times you wear them are painful. At The Jean Shop, it was recommended that I wear a tucked in tank top to avoid bruises and sores on my skin (as a side note, I did NOT experience any crocking or bleeding of the dye with my jeans. There has not been an ounce of indigo on any of my tank tops). After only two days of wear I had bruises on my hips, and the skin was rubbed raw behind my knees. Now a week in, my skin has healed and I'm able to bend down a little more everyday. I also think the jeans are looking better and better everyday, as they begin to learn the curves of my body. I absolutely love the creasing, and can't wait for some color fading action in the future.
Gordon: This is my second pair of raw denim. Week one in my Nudie Jeans has been far better than week one in my Unbranded pair. The Nudie's have a little give to them, so bending and twisting is not too bad. However, it was rainy this week, and when my jeans get wet, they bleed. I have been aware of this and haven't (blue) bled on anything I shouldn't, yet. The creases on my hips, knees and lower legs are starting to resonate, and I get more and more excited each morning to put on my Nudie's.
Stop by our Tumblr everyday to see how we're wearing our jeans, and we'll see you here on the DT blog next Friday!

text: Posted July 27, 2010 Adrian's costumes for her are ludicrous (except for the final, simple one in the prison) and defeat her at every turn. Far from looking like a seductive temptress who can make men fall in love with her at the drop of a hat, Adrian's gowns and costumes make her look unattractive and even oafish. (The costume for her big dance number at the start of the picture is particularly bad.) I rhink she looks fabulous, and I like the movie. Many of these 30s movies are full of period charm, and I don't expect more of them. I like 'Mata Hari', and because of Garbo, less for Novarro. Maybe it's for Garbo fans, and I do tend to enjoy all of them except 'Ninotchka' and 'Two-Faced Woman', which are interesting to see, but not to re-see IMO. Share this post Link to post

Did You Know? Countdown to Thanksgiving (11/23)
Did You Know?
Facts, Figures &
Folklore about the Pilgrims
& America's Thanksgiving
Nov 23 : 02 days till Thanksgiving
Did you know that it has become tradition for US Presidents to issue a pardon to the White House Thanksgiving Turkey?
Since about 1947 the National Turkey Federation has presented the President of the United States with one (and in recent years – two) live turkey(s) in a ceremony known as the National Thanksgiving Turkey Presentation.
The live turkeys are pardoned and live out the rest of their days on a farm or, since 2005, sent to either Disneyland in California or Walt Disney World in Florida, where they serve as the honorary grand marshals of Disney's Thanksgiving Day Parade.
While it is commonly believed that this pardoning tradition began with President Harry Truman in 1947, the Truman Library has been unable to find any evidence for this. The earliest Thanksgiving Presidential Pardon on record is with President George H. W. Bush in 1989
Thanksgiving Day in America is a time to offer thanks, a time for family gatherings and holiday meals. A time of turkeys, stuffing, and pumpkin pie. A time for Indian corn, holiday parades and giant balloons. We are delighted to invite you to partake in our Thanksgiving celebration. Our table is full this year, but we always have room for one more! So join us for a new Did You Know? each day as we count down to Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving will be celebrated on Thursday November 25th.

This is the product of the decade! I have normal-dry skin and I use this night and day. It feels oily but absorbs after about 15 mins. Skin never gets dry, scaly patches and always looks clear and plump. I use this with the probiotic soap and take Dr Ohhira's probiotics. I absolutely love this product.

I tried this because I am using his probiotics for the intestine, and as I have a fungus problem now I thought if he puts probiotics on the face he must know something! The cream has a nice texture, absorbs well and comes in a tube, which helps it remain fresh. I will definitely reorder.
poor substitute
Posted by Reviewer2719803 on Dec 09, 2010
This lotion is a poor substitute for the original Magaroku cream, which I was using on my dog's skin. I now have to use the Hadayubi, which is the closest replacement and which seems to always be in short supply.

|In response to Re: leaky releif valve on gas Hot Water heater
: : I went down to the basement and found water leaking out of the relief valve of my gas hot water heater. I flicked the handle and it still continues to leak. We have relatively hard water here and I believe some buildup is partially opening the valve. First question is what causes the relief valve to release? The second question is if I have to replace the valve, what are the basic steps?
: if you have a lime build up on the thermostat inside the heater the heater is not shuting off at the correct temp (aroung 120 deg). the heater is getting to the temp that the relief valve is set at and blowing off on safty. take the main control out and check it for a build up of lime. shut off gas to heater shut off water to heater and drain it. take the pilot tube off the thermocoulpling off and the main burner line off and use an 18" pipe wrench to unsrew the control. make sure your water heater is drained.

The Best Brush EverThis brush is all around awesome , the 1st review is right about it not being tough enough for curly hair but the trick is you have to section the hair off in smaller sections or the brush will fall apart from too much tension. I have used this brush on afro kinky curly hair and the hair came out pin straight so easily. It's also about the products you are using and your hair texture once you get that down the brush does all the work. Buy this brush it's worth it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great BuyThis is a great brush for the money. I love how the ceramic panels really allow for fast, smooth drying. There is a long pick that is embedded in the bottom of the brush that is not pictured. You can turn the pick around and put it back in the brush which can be used for separating the hair, which is a nice added feature. The only problem that I had with this brush is that I have super thick hair and the bristles have a hard time grabbing onto it for drying. If you have medium to fine hair this brush is perfect. It's a bit harder to work with on coarse, thick hair, but it is workable.

James van Riemsdyk at centre, suggests Carlyle
Cam Charron
July 06 2012 08:41AM
At this point, the best argument made for the Toronto Maple Leafs starting off James van Riemsdyk between Phil Kessel and Joffrey Lupul is that it absolutely keeps the second line consisting of Clarke MacArthur, Mikhail Grabovski and Nikolai Kulemin together. The second line has shown in the last two seasons the ability to tilt the ice the in the Leafs' favour.
But little else supports the argument. Van Riemsdyk was drafted as a winger, has spent his entire career as a winger, and, according to a statistic I saw on Twitter last night (and if it was your research, please mention in the comments so I can credit you), he's just 2-for-10 in his career on faceoffs.
Basically, JvR is not a centreman, but he is, according to Randy Carlyle, pencilled into that top-line centre position if nothing changes.
Randy Carlyle wants to see what James van Riemsdyk can do at centre.
The Maple Leafs coach said that, at this point, the plan is to give van Riemsdyk a long look at the position when training camp opens in September, provided there is no work stoppage.
"He's a big man and we're going to try him playing in the middle for us," [Toronto Sun]
This is what happens when you have a team full of wingers and nothing else. Now, it probably helps Kessel and Lupul to have a player who can drive the play forward. JvR is a plus-Corsi player, but never as a centreman. The centreman has a different set of responsibilities, particularly with this group of wingers. Lupul and Kessel are either defensively inept or defensively blasé, as is expected of scoring wingers.
But the whole notion doesn't make a lot of sense. You could figure that, with five legitimate Top-Six wingers and only four spots, that the Leafs could create a pinch of depth. You have Grabovski, MacArthur and Kulemin taking on the tough competition in offensive situations, a checking line of Jay McClement and Dave Steckel (centres can more easily be shifted to wing than wingers to centres, or so I'm told) taking on the tough competition in defensive situations.
After that you're left with two generally more sheltered lines. Kessel and Lupul ought to be used by Carlyle to face average competition in favourable offensive situations and get the most starts in the offensive zone and that extra shot. As for the last situation, facing easy competition in a more defensive role, is the place you would ideally want van Riemsdyk to be. Heck, put him with Matt Frattin and either Tyler Bozak or Joe Colborne and call it the "American College Line" or the "Anger Don Cherry Line".
When you look a little more in depth at the roles of certain lines, "Top Six" and "Bottom Six" become less clear. Nursing a 3-1 lead with minutes to go, all of a sudden, Steckel is in your Top Six in place of Kessel. Ideally, you can have one clear scoring line and one clear checking line, with the other two a little more two-way capable. Getting the most good players, rather than players to pigeonhole to the "third line C" role, gives the team a little more flexibility.
The forward corps is coming along, but you'd rather not start the season with JvR forced to play with Kessel and Lupul. With his ability, he can create a good line on his own steam with a couple of decent-enough players. The Leafs can look at internal options with Nazem Kadri or Tim Connolly to centre that "sheltered scoring" line, but this is all theoretical.
The Leafs roster will look different by the time training camp arrives, and I'm sure a solution will be found in some degree. The likelihood that JvR actually starts the season in the middle is slim.
Quick Hit:
The other notable story yesterday was that Jim Hughes, Leafs director of player development, suggested that Morgan Rielly may be "ahead of the curve." This led to some fears about the Leafs wanting to start the season with Rielly on the roster. Hearing what I've heard Brian Burke suggest over the last two weeks, he doesn't want to put a junior kid in the pros without some development. My own conversation with Dave Morrison led me to believe that Rielly isn't in the Leafs' plans for the upcoming season. Rielly will play in the WHL this season.
July 06 2012, 10:05AM
Well of course they will make a player who has never played center in his life their first line centre. After all, the Toronto brain trust is soooo much smarter everyone else in the hockey world.....or maybe the universe! Just ask them!
1. JVR spent a significant amount of time as a centre before being drafted.
2. Burke has said that he expects JVR to be a winger.
3. Carlyle said he would give him a try as a centre during training camp, not the regular season.
Nothing indicates that they're trying to force a square peg into a round hole. They're giving it a try either to see what happens, or to see if they can bring the asking price for a true #1C down by looking less needy.
Please research before commenting.
Maybe someone can help me out, but wasn't Sundin drafted as a winger?
Actually, I just found a link that says he was drafted as a winger and played at least his rookie season as a winger in Quebec.
So it's not the most ridiculous suggestion ever.
It's my understanding that JVR was a center all his life until he was drafted and Philly moved him to the wing.
Another thing that makes this a great idea for Carlyle to try is that JVR is a skilled left-handed shot and that is ideal for making give and go plays with Kessel and setting him up for one-timers.
Another is JVR has size to provide that line.
Another is JVR has a good shot himself so defenders can't assume he's going to dish to Kessel for the one-timer. Lupul also can one-time the puck so there will be three good options... either winger or JVR shoots the puck himself. Harder to defend that scenario.
There's many reasons to try it and none not to try. Sticking with Bozak year after year expecting a different result is crazy. If Burke can't fill the need thru trade, try to fill the need from within. It would only be bad if it didn't work but they still stuck with it all year.
Carlyle auditioning Van Riemsdyk at center is a direct challenge to Burke: " I want more size up front so get me a bigger first line centre or I 'll come up with my own solution." To this end, when Wilson was coach Burke did not interfere with Wilson's decisions on player personel. Ron made the lines, dished out the ice time and decided who sat in the press box. N.B. Orr, Komisarek and Fransson. Expect the same with Carlyle. Burke might like JVR on the wing but ultimately it is up to Carlyle unless Burke fires him in order to make himself coach. Don't bet your house on that happening.
Let's just compare Bozak and JVR before you unceremoniously run him over with a bus and bury his Leaf career next to Matt Stajan.
Here are JVR's stats: 23 years old, 6'3, 200 lbs.
2009-2010 15 G 35 P 30 PIM 78 GP 2010-2011 21 G 40 P 35 PIM 75 GP 2011-2012 11 G 24 P 24 PIM 43 GP Totals 47 G 99 P 89 PIM 196 GP
And here are Bozak's stats: 26 years old, 6'1, 196 lbs.
2009-2010 8 G 27 P 6 PIM 37 GP 2010-2011 15 G 32 P 14 PIM 82 GP 2011-2012 18 G 47 P 22 PIM 73 GP Totals. 41 G 106 P 42 PIM 192 GP
JVR has the advantage in age - 3 years younger. In size very slight advantage to JVR. Points - Bozak has accumulated more in less games. Goals - JVR has the advance by 6. Both seem to be slowly getting better with each paying season.
Don't expect JVR to be a big upgrade on Bozak. Don't forget that JVR certainly must have had more sheltered minutes on a perennial playoff team in Philiadelphia whereas Bozak often played against the top opponent's checking line.
@Rocky I'm not throwing Bozak under the bus. He'd be a great 3rd line centre. I'm pointing out the fact that we've seen what Bozak brings to the 1st line and it isn't enough.
We haven't seen how JVR would fare and he may fall flat on his face and he may be great. Definitely a skilled left stick with Kessel has promise.

A last-minute converted Conrad Smith try saw the Hurricanes claim a staggering 26-25 win over the Blues at Eden Park on Friday.
A last-minute converted Conrad Smith try saw the Hurricanes claim a superb 26-25 win over the Blues at Eden Park in Auckland on Friday.
Smith was the man of the moment for his team, as the Hurricanes skipper was responsible for putting his side in front 19-16 with a five-pointer on the stroke of at half-time.
But with less than a minute to play, the Blues looked to have the game in the bag after full-back Lachie Munro slotted over three penalties to put the home side back in front 25-19.
That was until Smith capped off his night and secured a bonus point for the visitors with his team's fourth try set up and duly converted by pivot Beauden Barrett for the win.
The visitors had outscored the hosts four tries to one – but Munro landed 20 points through six penalties and a conversion of Ma'a Nonu's try that kept the Blues in front of the majority of the match.
Munro's points tally went someway to atoning for two defensive blunders that had helped keep the Hurricanes in the contest – Cory Jane and Smith both profited from errors by the Blues full-back.
The Blues had come out firing in the first half as Munro landed a penalty and then a conversion after Nonu – who left the Hurricanes in acrimonious circumstances last season – had crashed over from close range after 15 minutes to give the hosts a 10-0 lead.
The Hurricanes response was immediate. From the restart, wing Julian Savea shook off two would-be tacklers before off-loading to Andre Taylor on the halfway line. The full-back stepped on the gas, brushed aside Benson Stanley and rounded Munro before sprinting in for a sensational try in the corner.
Barrett converted only for Munro to land a second penalty to put the Blues 13-7 in front.
Munro, though, was left red in the face after the Hurricanes crossed for their second try seven minutes before the break. Munro coughed up possession after attempting to run Taylor's chip ahead out of his 22, and the ever-alert Jane scooped up the ball and held off Piri Weepu's poor attempted tackle to score.
Again Munro responded with a penalty before another defensive moment he will want to forget as he failed to cope with Tim Bateman's grubber allowing Smith to hack on – with a lucky bounce assisting the All Blacks centre for the try.
Barrett's conversion on the stroke of half-time saw the Hurricanes lead for the first time.
However the Blues and Munro responded brilliantly with three penalties earning them a 25-19 advantage – while Barrett was off-target with a three-pointer of his own.
The Blues seemed set to hold on for the win until a last roll of the dice from the Hurricanes snatched the win. A brilliant counter-attack from Barrett created the space for Smith to race away.
Smith ensured he touched the ball down as close to the posts as he could, allowing Barrett to slot over the crucial conversion.

"I fell in love with these sandals when I saw them online and immediately ordered them. I was so excited when they were delivered, and I wanted to love them - I really did! But they just didn't do it for me. Something about the fit was very strange; they were the correct size but were very stretchy and gaped between my foot and the bottom of the sandal when I walked (hard to describe). Overall they are very cute and the colors are great - just didn't work for me!"

"The colors are vivid while the fit is quite comfortable and easy to walk in. I am wider than most across the ball of my foot, however the sandal still gave enough coverage for the sides of my feet! I definately recommend you buy this!!"

Decorating Inspiration From The King's Speech
Decorating Inspiration From Logue's Office in The King's Speech
Award-season favorite The King's Speech clearly has a lot going for it: a riveting peek into history, a talented A-list cast, and a whopping 12 Oscar nominations. But what I can't get over are its beautiful sets, which run the gamut from ornate, royal interiors to modest depression-era homes. My favorite, though, is speech therapist Lionel Logue's (Geoffrey Rush) office, where some of the funniest and most intimate scenes in the movie take place. Want to know how you can re-create the office's unique interiors in your own home? Keep reading.

Excelent, Bought it for my wife. She loves it. Great sales lady sold it to her. She was very helpful and knowledgeable. Thanks
Extremely nice helmet with lots of add on features. I installed the Wireless Led brake light kit and Jaw guard thus making it a full faced helmet. (Note): I had to install the Jaw guard after putting on the helmet (size med). I could not get the helmet on otherwise. It is a pretty simple procedure.
OK for the money!

Neal Spencer, British Museum
Five weeks ago, Mary Shepperson revealed the remains of a stone doorway, tumbled into room two of house E13.6. Over the last few days we have reconstructed the gateway in the courtyard of our house – albeit laid flat on the ground rather than vertical…
The imposing appearance of the doorway is now more evident, standing 2.35m tall, with a passageway of 88cm wide by 1.75m tall. In terms of scale, many of our field team would have to stoop to walk through the door.
The lintel is made from an unusually fine sandstone – perhaps from Sai island – whereas the doorjambs are of the poor quality sandstone we more often encounter. This doorway would have been set into the mudbrick wall.
The jambs are not inscribed – any inscription would have been into a layer of white plaster, now largely disappeared. On the lintel, the red- and yellow-painted hieroglyphs invoke the god Amun-Ra and Horus Lord of Ta-sety, and also refer to king Tuthmosis III.
Interestingly, this door was not the main house door, but rather framed the entrance to the central reception room, with a low bench against its back wall. As such it may have marked the transition from more prosaic spaces at the front of the house, towards a more formal space which could be used for welcoming visitors.
Beyond lay two more rooms – presumably the most private areas of the house.
A doorway in an adjacent and contemporary house (E13.9), excavated in 2009, simply lined with mud plaster and with unworked schist slabs for a lintel and threshold, shows how simple internal house doors could be at Amara West.

Nice (nēs) [key], city (1990 pop. 345,674), capital of Alpes-Maritimes dept., SE France, on the Mediterranean Sea. Nice is the most famous resort on the French Riviera. Although the economy depends mainly on the tourist trade, the electronics industry as well as other manufactures are important. The old port of Nice handles both commercial fishing and passenger service to Corsica. The new port, west of the city, engages in more commercial shipping. Nice also has one of France's major airports. There are several churches dating from the 12th through the 17th cent. and a Russian Orthodox cathedral (1912). The Carnival of Nice marks the height of the city's festival season.
Probably a Greek colony ( Nikaia, or Nicaea in Latin) established in the 5th cent. B.C., Nice became an episcopal see in the 4th cent. A.D. It was pillaged and burned by Muslim forces in 859 and 880. In the 13th and 14th cent. the city belonged to the counts of Provence and Savoy. In 1543 the united forces of Francis I and Barbarossa attacked and burned Nice. It was annexed to France in 1793, restored to Sardinia in 1814, and again ceded to France in 1860 after a plebiscite. At the beginning of the French Revolution the city was a haven for Royalist émigrés. Its popularity as a resort began in the late 18th century, increasing with the building of roads in the 1820s and the arrival of the railroad in 1864. At first a retreat for royals and aristocrats, the city became a middle class resort as accessibility to it grew. Nice was claimed and occupied by Mussolini during World War II.

St. Paul's Letter to the Galatians 5:11-21
Prokeimenon. Grave Mode.
Psalm 63.11,1
The righteous shall rejoice in the Lord.
Verse: Oh God, hear my cry.
BRETHREN, if I still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted? In that case the stumbling block of the cross has been removed. I wish those who unsettle you would mutilate themselves! For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love be servants of one another. For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself." But if you bite and devour one another take heed that you are not consumed by one another. But I say, walk by the Spirit, and do not gratify the desires of the flesh. For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh; for these are opposed to each other, to prevent you from doing what you would. But if you are led by the Spirit you are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are plain: fornication, impurity, licentiousness, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, anger, selfishness, dissension, party spirit, envy, drunkenness, carousing, and the like. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
