Solar and wind businesses don't qualify for MLP tax breaks, but proponents were shaking the bushes for support this week.
To qualify as a Master Limited Partnership, a business must generate 90% of its income from qualified sources, which are now defined as real estate, or natural resources including coal, natural gas, petroleum products, timber or other minerals. The majority of MLPs are energy companies in the business of transporting and processing oil, natural gas and related fuels or byproducts.
Right now, the category of renewable energy doesn't qualify for MLP status in the tax code, but a proposal has been languishing in Congress (details on the proposed MLP Parity Act here). If renewables get added to the list, these businesses would get access to cheap capital and wouldn't have to pay corporate taxes — on the condition they distribute most of their cash flow to partners.
The Alerian MLP Index, the benchmark made up of the 50 largest MLPs, is paying a 5.3% yield. For the investor, taxes are largely deferred on that payout, and MLPs have had a bang-up year thus far. The index has produced a total return of 20%, compared to 11% for the Standard & Poor's 500 Index. Among the largest MLP funds, the Alerian MLP ETF (AMLP) total return is 13% so far this year and for the Kayne Anderson MLP Investment Company fund (KYN), 18%.

RE:South sound report
Yep - a classic afternoon/ evening.
You know it's tough when you have a buddy who's a guide and knows how to get into the spots you only think about hitting when you look at the maps & charts.
Thanks, J, I had a great time & I know that I definitely owe you one.
RE:South sound report
Good job you guys. God I wish I was there. I'll just have to settle for Clave shots. BTW I got some awesome PI shots to share too.
South sound report
After checking out the campsite firsthand last night, Roop and I snuck into a tidal inlet on the outgoing. Using QD lines and deep eels I hit a schoolie pretty quickly. As we worked our way around, I started to slow things down to allow better penetration into the fast, deep current and was rewarded by a snag that started to run for the atlantic. With the rod bent hard right down the the cork, the fish spit the hook. Oh well, it was nice to see that big fish were in the area.
We worked our way thru the schoolies and >thud< another butt-bender, this time ripping all the line out of the basket and working on the drag before >spit< Two big fish, two spit... a bit frustrated.
More schoolies later, a third screamer... a blue; ate thru the tippet on a drag peeling run. That's three big fish and none to shore.
We went onto a gorgeous inside flat. More schoolies for both of us, suddenly Roop gets nailed. The fish runs off to the edge of the flat peeling line like a porsche from Jeff's hands. After an epic fight, Jeff lands a "last-years keeper" bass for a photo as daylight fades into a cape cod sunset, and we head back toward the truck.
On the way back, the lights get dim. Stripers are now stationed in the current within ten feet of shore. I swing the sand eel so that it is straight downstream from me, and pick up a couple 24-26". The funny thing was a legal sized bass followed the eel right up to the point where I pulled it out of the water, and unfortuntely I didn't see it until it swirled and swam away.
Between the two of us we had caught numerous schoolies and hooked a few fish in the legal or near legal class in a couple of hours and were pleased with the day.
Life is good.

The Bedouin come from a variety of origins, which means that this colorful and ancient community offers many nuances waiting to be discovered. They are like a tree, with deep roots in their desert past (the word Bedouin comes from the Arabic word badu, which means desert) and its crown in modern life, seeking to live in both worlds. The majority of Bedouin in Israel, approximately 160,000, live in the Negev, with another 70,000 in Galilee. About half of Israel's Bedouin originate in tribes that emerged from the Arabian Desert in the seventh century CE. They eventually migrated north to the Negev by way of the Sinai Peninsula, or to the Galilee by way of Iraq and Syria. The other half are divided into two groups: farmers from Egypt and Sinai who came north during later Turkish times, and tribes people from Sudan who arrived in the 19th century as slaves.
The Bedouin livelihood once depended entirely on moving their flocks through the desert from well to well and from pasture to pasture. Now, most have settled down permanently. However among the elements of Bedouin culture still powerfully evident from those days are hospitality and ties of family, tribe and confederation. These elements also come to the fore in the biblical stories of the patriarchs and the matriarchs, making the experience of Bedouin culture a Bible lesson as well.
Meet the Bedouin in Israel and learn more about their culture then and now by contacting the following organizations:

Here is a video of what is becoming a discouraging situation for me. I spent all last week teaching this pattern blind, and when we reache the end of the 120yrd blind she started avoiding some verry minial coveras you will see on the go and return as she approaches the pile. I spent all this week tring to correct her line at the end.
To begin with when i started teaching this blind i did not even think there would be a problem , but she obviously does not like the change in the height of the grass although it is not but maybe 3in where the bush hog cut uneven.
Things i have tried.
1.move up to where she begins to flare and send.
2. move back away from where she begins to flare and run it from there and correct when she begins to flare.
3.handle when she flares to get her back on line.
over the week she has gotten her line a little better but still flares 5 to 10 yards compared to the 15 yards in the video??
should i be worried about this?
should i move locations to a place with absolutley nothing to flare from?
should i just move on to another leg?
this one week job is turning into a three week one due to this little flare, and i dont know if i should just move locations?
Thanks alot.

TUPELO – Two Elvis statues are in the works for the Elvis Presley Birthplace.
The statues are part of phase two of the birthplace's $6.3 million expansion, and those plans were shown in detail to fans at a birthday party for The King on Tuesday afternoon at the Elvis Presley Birthplace Theater.
"We're putting an emphasis on Elvis the boy instead of Elvis the entertainer," birthplace chairman Henry Dodge told the crowd. "Elvis the boy is our story."
A bronze statue of 11-year-old Elvis sitting on a milk crate will be placed at the overlook behind the birthplace.
Behind him will be a bronze statue of Elvis the entertainer, "in full regalia," including a cape, Dodge said, with his arms outstretched and head tilted toward the sky.
That's the pose Elvis took when he closed his concerts.
"It's not just the end of the concert, but the end of a life, looking up at the heavens," Dodge said.
It will be a large statue "because he's bigger than life," he said.
Both the child and adult statues will be placed in bronze soil to signify both the boy and the entertainer came from the same roots.
The two statues together are one piece of art called "Becoming."
Phase two also includes a nine-table picnic area that can seat more than 50 people and will include a fireplace and more parking.
This phase of the project is estimated to cost between $750,000 to $1 million, and fundraising should begin soon. The project will start soon after the funds are raised.
Phase one included more a 126-seat indoor theater, an amphitheater, extra parking and more. A face-lift for the gift shop is the last step in phase one and will be completed in the coming weeks.
There is already a statue of Elvis, called "Elvis at 13," at the Birthplace.

Having now spent the morning looking for somewhere to CERF a dog, I am now turning to further resorts. (sounded better that way than actually saying last resorts) In the past, I have always went to a spring clinic put on by locals, however I need one NOW or within a week. Surely there is someone that does them closer than 2 1/2 hours away or further of Topeka, Indiana? Dog shows that would have an opthamologist present for a CERF?
If someone could post up with the vet (Or dog show that is putting on a clinic) they use in the lower part (ideally south-central-western) of Michigan, north eastern Indiana, or way western Ohio, it would be a HUGE help. I am willing to drive up to 2 hours, but didn't want to turn it into a road trip for SIMPLE eye CERF.

- Ravel - Retrospection - Dejan Lazic
"No, this is not going to be what you think: you will not find La Marseillaise in it, but instead you will find a Forlane and a Gigue; no Tango either". Those were the words of Maurice Ravel on 1 October 1914, writing to Roland Manuel about his last piano composition, Le Tombeau de Couperin. This six-movement suite is dedicated both to Franois Couperin and to Ravel s friends who had been killed in World War I. In this work, old dance forms are restored to life, and the music is characterized by grace, charm, order, and moderation. The unusual movement is the Fugue, a form which is seldom found in earlier suites. The two framing movements - Prlude and Toccata - evoke the harpsichord technique of the 18th century. In the Forlane, the melodic leaps and strange chords catch ones attention, in the central part of the Rigaudon the rustic melody provides a contrast with the cheerful main section. The Menuet, which differs fundamentally from the Menuet in the Sonatine, is melancholy, with a central Musette of pastoral quality; the close already sounds a little jazzy. The later orchestral version of the suite omits the Fugue and Toccata. Ravel was as moved by the clarity of scientific thought, exemplified by Pythagoras and Archimedes, as he was by the concept of a fourth dimension. He gave expression to this kaleidoscope of widespread interests in his music. All too often he is simply classified as a French Impressionist. But that, of course, is only partly correct. His father was Swiss and his mother was of Pyrenaean Basque extraction. Surely this is why there are so many elements of Spanish folklore in his music. Ravel was also very taken with Russian and Greek folklore, and many elements of this music were assimilated into his own work. He was only partly an impressionist, for example in Gaspard de la Nuit, or in Miroirs. All of his other piano works can be placed in different categories. For example, the Sonatine is a late-romantic work with great outbursts of emotion; in Le Tombeau de Couperin, Ravel makes use of the musical language of the 16th century. Another mistake is that of constantly comparing Ravel with Debussy. In this context, Debussys works, with their constantly iridescing emotional states, barely confined by formal rules, are totally different from Ravels compositions, where the details, intellectual clarity, and form generally control the emotions. This special language makes his music so individual: introverted, elegant, tasteful, intelligent, measured.
Additional Information
|Main artist
Prelude (1913)
Dejan Lazic was born in Zagreb in 1977. He began his piano studies at the age of 7. At 9 years he was already playing the clarinet and a year later he wrote his first compositions. He participated in various competitions and won first prizes for both instruments. His meeting with Hungarian pianists Zoltan Kocsis and Imre Rohmann at the Bartok Festival in Szombathely (Hungary) added a new dimension to his artistic development. In 1991 Dejan moved to Salzburg, where he continued his studies at the Mozarteum. Immediately afterwards he started recording for radio and television at home and abroad (RTL,WDR, RAI, RTBF, ORF) and played with various orchestras like the St. Petersburg Hermitage Orchestra, Rhine Philharmonic and the Camerata Academica Salzburg. He concertized in many of Europes greatest halls, including the Vienna Musikverein, the Salzburg Festspielhaus, the Amsterdam Concertgebouw and the Queen Elisabeth Hall. In 1990, (he was just 13) he made his first recording together with the famous Solisti di Zagreb playing the Mozart Clarinet concerto KV 622 and Piano concerto KV 449. His double gift as an instrumental virtuoso is augmented by his composing talent. His "Conversazioni" for clarinet and viola has been played throughout the world, his first string quartet was composed for the gala of Mstislav Rostropovichs 70th birthday. In 1999, another famous cellist, the Dutchman Pieter Wispelwey, played Dejans "Chaconne" for cello solo. New releases team Dejan with Pieter Wispelwey playing the famous "Davidoff" transcriptions for cello and piano of Waltzes by Chopin. The cd releases will be supported by concerts in Australia, the United States, Canada, South America, Israel, Japan and Taiwan. In Europe as well, recitals are planned in main venues and Festivals such as: the Lockenhaus, Flanders, Edinburgh, Lissabon, Prague and Kuhmo Festivals, Schubertiade Schwarzenberg, de Singel (Antwerp), Grand Opera Lyon and the Brussels Philharmonic Society. Orchestral projects include performances with the Australian Chamber Orchestra, European Festival Orchestra, Wiener Virtuosen, Janacek Philharmonic Orchestra, Klassische Philharmonie Bonn and the Mozarteum Orchester Salzburg.

i installed wamp server, but when i try to process the index.php file, it just prompt for downlod the file insted of processing it :rofl:
i set the max exection time in php.ini to 1000 and restarted the service. but no help
Did you target the correct location with the WAMP directory (htdocs)? Did you tell the WAMP installation to install PHP, too? Is it any wonder I love the Kevin Yank approach to installing daemons rather than relying on "canned apps" (albeit I've been told that he's now leaning toward the "canned apps")?
How are you doing that?
i issue localhost/index.php or just localhost
yahyah, i changed the document root path in two places in httpd.conf as :
<Directory "D:\sites\mysite">DocumentRoot "D:\sites\mysite"
What about this?
You've possibly placed the file in the wrong place perhaps, with the version of wamp that I'm using, there is a folder called "www", each site or project has it's own folder in the "www" folder. Say within the "www" folder there was a folder called "wiki" (which would contain probably MediaWiki), to access the mediawiki the address that I would enter into the browser address bar would be http://localhost/wiki/
Hai folks, i am currently aways from the server in question. ill check your suggession once i get back to the server today. Thanks for your valuable time.

How many issues were printed? I have issue 7, vol. 1 but I've seen as high as issue 14, vol. 1.
What I like are the short stories they have. I know that some of them were reprinted in Tales of the Empire & Tales of the New Republic. Was that all of the short stories or did the skip some?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!

'Now the "Elder Statesman", photographed in retirement at his Gettysburg farm, Eisenhower still retained the same geniality and warmth that had made him an allied military hero and subsequently President of the United States. ' (Karsh)
During World War II, General Eisenhower was Commander-in-Chief of Allied Forces in North Africa and Italy (1942–1943) and Supreme Commander of Allied Expeditionary Forces in Western Europe (1943–1945). In 1951 he assumed supreme command over the new NATO forces being assembled. Republican emissaries to his headquarters near Paris persuaded him to run for president in 1952. He won a landslide victory in 1953. Early in his presidency, with tensions arising from the Cold War, un-American activities became a major issue leading to the formation of the US Senate Un-American Activities Committee, chaired by Senator Joseph McCarthy. Eisenhower won a second term in 1956 and retired to his farm after two terms in 1961.

Plane Algebraic Curves - Gerd Fischer
This is a genuine introduction to algebraic geometry. The author makes no assumption that readers know more than can be expected of a good undergraduate. He introduces fundamental concepts in a way that enables students to move on to a more advanced book or course that relies more heavily on commutative algebra.
The language is purposefully kept on an elementary level, avoiding sheaf theory and cohomology theory. The introduction of new algebraic concepts is always motivated by a discussion of the corresponding geometric ideas. The main point of the book is to illustrate the interplay between abstract theory and specific examples. The book contains numerous problems that illustrate the general theory.
The text is suitable for advanced undergraduates and beginning graduate students. It contains sufficient material for a one-semester course. The reader should be familiar with the basic concepts of modern algebra. A course in one complex variable would be helpful, but is not necessary. It is also an excellent text for those working in neighboring fields (algebraic topology, algebra, Lie groups, etc.) who need to know the basics of algebraic geometry.
Advanced undergraduates, graduate students, and research mathematicians interested in algebra and algebraic geometry; those working in neighboring fields (algebraic topology, algebra, Lie groups, etc.) who need to know the basics of algebraic geometry.
"The present small book offers a nice introduction to algebraic geometry, based on an elementary algebraic level, without the use of sheaf or cohomology theory. ...The book is nicely written and can be recommended to anybody interested in basic algebraic geometry."
-- EMS Newsletter
"The book balances theory and examples well and the exercises are well-chosen to further illustrate the basic concepts. All in all, the book does an excellent job of explaining what algebraic geometry is about, what are the basic results, and it invites the reader to continue exploring the subject ... I would definitely recommend it as reading material to a bright undergraduate who has taken a basic course on rings and fields and has read about Noetherian rings. It is certainly suitable for a one-semester graduate course ... Mathematicians from other areas will also enjoy the book ... [It] reminds me of more old-fashioned books on algebraic geometry ... but updated to our modern standards of rigor and shorter attention span."
-- MAA Online
From a review for the German Edition:
"The introduction contains numerous examples which illustrate and motivate the discussed theory and which reappear, as the course develops, handled in a precise and clear manner ... Each section ends with interesting and doable (!) exercises ... the author makes a great effort to prove most of the theorems in the rigorous way ... Precision and clarity are distinguished features of the reviewed test."
-- MathSciNet, Mathematical Reviews on the Web
"The book remains one of the very best introductory texts on algebraic geometry. The last chapter is a masterpiece of didactic art ... absolutely unique for such an elementary textbook."

Alternate name: White Sagebrush
Family: Asteraceae, Aster view all from this family
Description A species of sagebrush known by several common names, including silver wormwood, Louisiana wormwood, white sagebrush, and gray sagewort.
It is native to North America where it is widespread coast to coast, but many subspecies are found only in the western United States. This is a rhizomatous perennial herb growing to heights between 30 centimeters and one meter. The stems bear linear leaves up to 11 centimeters long. The stems and foliage are covered in woolly gray or white hairs. The top of the stem is occupied by a narrow inflorescence of many nodding flower heads. Each small head is a cup of hairy phyllaries surrounding a center of yellowish disc florets and is about half a centimeter wide. The fruit is a minute achene. This plant was used by many Native American groups for a variety of medicinal, veterinary, and ceremonial purposes.
There are many subspecies, including:
A. l. ssp. albula - small-leafed subspecies native to the southwestern United States and northern Mexico
A. l. ssp. candicans - native to western North America from British Columbia to northern California
A. l. ssp. estesii - (Estes' artemisia) - endemic to Oregon
A. l. ssp. ludoviciana - the most widespread subspecies
Ludoviciana is the Latinized version of the word Louisiana.
A. ludoviciana has become a popular garden plant, although it has a tendency to be aggressive in some gardens.
Habitat Mountains, Scrub, shrub & brushlands, Deserts, Grasslands & prairies, Fields.

John was christened at the German Lutheran church in Reynolds on 31 May 1891, and he attended the German Lutheran school there as a child. He was confirmed on 16 April 1905, but his mother was not there to attend the confirmation; she had died in August 1903, when John was just twelve.

When he was still in his teens, John left Indiana to join some of his full siblings who had moved to North Dakota. It was there that he eventually made a home for himself, married and raised a family, and spent the remainder of his life.

Sorry, the manufacturer is no longer producing this product.
Description & Highlights
Haier 1.8 Cu. Ft. Ventless Front Load Combo Washer Dryer with Portability Kit - White
Clean your clothes with ease when you use the Haier 1.8 Cu. Ft. Ventless Front Load Combo Washer Dryer with Portability Kit (HWD1600BWKIT). With a 1.8 cu. ft. capacity, this washer/dryer combo allows you to clean an entire load of laundry with ease, and the six (6) wash cycles ensure that you can clean any type of fabric, no matter how tough or soft it is. The internal stainless steel drum encloses your clothes in the machine, making sure it gets washed and dried thoroughly for a more efficient cleaning experience. Four (4) wash and rinse temperatures allow you to decide how your clothes get washed, so you can custom clean each load to give it the specialized attention it deserves.
A 13 lb wash capacity and a 6.6 lb drying capacity ensures that even the largest load will be taken care of when you use this machine, and the built-in dispenser holds and release fabric softener, pre-wash, and detergent when it needs to be mixed in, so you won't have to worry about doing it yourself. This washer features a humidity sensor that reads the progress of the load, so it will know when it is time to stop the drying cycle, and the condenser drying means that venting is not required. This means that when it is time to dry your clothes, you won't have to worry about stepping into a muggy and humid laundry room. With adjustable leveling feet, this dryer can adapt to any environment no matter how unstable, and the included portability kit also allows you to easily move the washer/dryer whenever you need to. Perfect for any household, this combo washer/dryer will do all of the work and only take up half the space of traditional washer and dryer units.

I am trying to run an ILE CL program in debug mode on one of our test boxes. I have run debug zillions of times, no problem. But something very strange is occuring, and what makes this even more odd is that I had this program successfully running in debug yesterday morning on the test box. It will run on our development box in debug, my co-worker can run it in debug on the test box. But for some reason, it will no longer run for me. Here is what happens: When I issue the command, STRDBG PGM(MYLIB/MYCLPGM) UPDPROD(*YES), all is well. The module source displays. Until I hit f10 and then issue the command to run the program: CALL PGM(MYLIB/MYCLPGM) PARM('9999'). Instead of going into the source and allowing me to step thru the code, the program takes off and runs. I still have to do an ENDDBG also before I attempt to put it back into debug mode again after this. If anyone has ever seen this occur before, information would be greatly appreciated.

Debug is simple, right?Tags: None
Reebug is simple, right?
I would *guess* you had the pgm in debug with *INLR=*OFF (still in memory), recompiled it and now the previous object is in the QRPLOBJ library, still active. And then you debug the newer object, which the job ignores on the CALL since the old object is still in memory. Does the problem go away if you signoff/signon and debug again? Chris
Reebug is simple, right?
This code has not been re-compiled on the test box (not even possible to do on our test boxes). It was compiled on the Development box using Implementer with DBGVIEW = *ALL and installed to the test box. The problem does not go away if I signoff, which is what is totally frustrating about this issue.
Reebug is simple, right?
Forgive me for asking, but did you set a breakpoint (F6) on the first line of code before CALL-ing it? Chris
Reebug is simple, right?
Actually I did try that, but normally I can call any program without pre-setting a break point in it and still step through it. However, this will not go into the source code by either method.

AT last came the year of the great drought, the year of eighteen-sixty-two, I think. From end to end of the land the earth cried for water. Man and beast turned their eyes to the pitiless sky, that like the roof of some brazen oven arched overhead. On the farm, day after day, month after month, the water in the dams fell lower and lower; the sheep died in the fields; the cattle, scarcely able to crawl, tottered as they moved from spot to spot in search of food. Week after week, month after month, the sun looked down from the cloudless sky, till the karroo-bushes were leafless sticks, broken into the earth, and the earth itself was naked and bare; page: 25 and only the milk-bushes, like old hags, pointed their shrivelled fingers heavenward, praying for the rain that never came.
* * * * *
It was on an afternoon of a long day in that thirsty summer, that on the side of the "kopje" furthest from the homestead the two girls sat. They were somewhat grown since the days when they played hide-and-seek there, but they were mere children still.
Their dress was of dark coarse stuff; their common blue pinafores reached to their ankles, and on their feet they wore home-made "vel-schoen."
They sat under a shelving rock, on the surface of which were still visible some old Bushman paintings, their red and black pigments having been preserved through long years from wind and rain by the overhanging ledge; grotesque oxen, elephants, rhinoceroses, and a one-horned beast, such as no man ever has seen or ever shall.page: 26
The girls sat with their backs to the paintings. In their laps were a few fern and ice-plant leaves, which by dint of much searching they had gathered under the rocks.
Em took off her big brown kappje and began vigorously to fan her red face with it; but her companion bent low over the leaves in her lap, and at last took up an ice-plant leaf and fastened it on to the front of her blue pinafore with a pin.
"Diamonds must look as these drops do," she said, carefully bending over the leaf, and crushing one crystal drop with her delicate little finger. "When I," she said, "am grown up, I shall wear real diamonds, exactly like these in my hair."
Her companion opened her eyes and wrinkled her low forehead.
"Where will you find them, Lyndall? The stones are only crystals that we picked up yesterday. Old Otto says so."page: 27
"And you think that I am going to stay here always?"
The lip trembled scornfully.
"Ah, no," said her companion. "I suppose some day we shall go somewhere; but now we are only twelve, and we cannot marry till we are seventeen. Four years, five—that is a long time to wait. And we might not have diamonds if we did marry."
"And you think that I am going to stay here till then?"
"Well, where are you going?" asked her companion.
The girl crushed an ice-plant leaf between her fingers.
"Tant' Sannie is a miserable old woman," she said. "Your father married her when he was dying, because he thought she would take better care of the farm, and of us, than an Englishwoman. He said we should be taught and sent to school. Now she saves every page: 28 farthing for herself, buys us not even one old book. She does not ill-use us—why? Because she is afraid of your father's ghost. Only this morning she told her Hottentot that she would have beaten you for breaking the plate, but that three nights ago she heard a rustling and a grunting behind the pantry door, and knew it was your father coming to 'spook' her. She is a miserable old woman," said the girl, throwing the leaf from her; "but I intend to go to school."
"And if she won't let you?"
"I shall make her."
The child took not the slightest notice of the last question, and folded her small arms across her knees.
"Why do you want to go, Lyndall?"
"There is nothing helps in this world," said the child slowly, "but to be very wise, and to know everything—to be clever."page: 29
"But I should not like to go to school!" persisted the small freckled face.
"And you do not need to. When you are seventeen this Boer-woman will go; you will have this farm and everything that is upon it for your own; but I," said Lyndall, "will have nothing. I must learn."
"Oh, Lyndall! I will give you some of my sheep," said Em, with a sudden burst of pitying generosity.
"I do not want your sheep," said the girl slowly; "I want things of my own. When I am grown up," she added, the flush on her delicate features deepening at every word, "there will be nothing that I do not know. I shall be rich, very rich; and I shall wear, not only for best, but every day, a pure white silk, and little rose-buds, like the lady in Tant' Sannie's bedroom, and my petticoats will be embroidered, not only at the bottom, but all through."page: 30
The lady in Tant' Sannie's bedroom was a gorgeous creature from a fashion-sheet, which the Boer-woman, somewhere obtaining, had pasted up at the foot of her bed, to be profoundly admired by the children.
"It would be very nice," said Em; but it seemed a dream of quite too transcendent a glory ever to be realized.
At this instant there appeared at the foot of the "kopje" two figures—the one, a dog, white and sleek, one yellow ear hanging down over his left eye; the other, his master, a lad of fourteen, and no other than the boy Waldo, grown into a heavy, slouching youth of fourteen. The dog mounted the "kopje" quickly, his master followed slowly. He wore an aged jacket much too large for him, and rolled up at the wrists, and, as of old, a pair of dilapidated "vel-schoens" and a felt hat. He stood before the two girls at last.
"What have you been doing to-day?" asked page: 31 Lyndall, lifting her eyes to his face.
"Looking after ewes and lambs below the dam. Here!" he said, holding out his hand awkwardly, "I brought them for you."
There were a few green blades of tender grass.
"Where did you find them?"
"On the dam wall."
She fastened them beside the leaf on her blue pinafore.
"They look nice there," said the boy, awkwardly rubbing his great hands and watching her.
"Yes; but the pinafore spoils it all; it is not pretty."
He looked at it closely.
"Yes, the squares are ugly; but it looks nice upon you—beautiful."
He now stood silent before them, his great hands hanging loosely at either side.page: 32
"Some one has come to-day," he mumbled out suddenly, when the idea struck him.
"Who?" asked both girls.
"An Englishman on foot."
"What does he look like?" asked Em.
"I did not notice; but he has a very large nose," said the boy slowly. "He asked the way to the house."
"Didn't he tell you his name?"
"Yes—Bonaparte Blenkins."
- 'Bonaparte, Bonaparte, my wife is sick;
- In the middle of the week, but Sundays not,
- I give her rice and beans for soup'—
"There was a living man called Bonaparte once," said she of the great eyes.
"Ah yes, I know," said Em—"the poor prophet whom the lions ate. I am always so sorry for him."page: 33
Her companion cast a quiet glance upon her.
"He was the greatest man who ever lived," she said—"the man I like best."
"And what did he do?" asked Em, conscious that she had made a mistake, and that her prophet was not the man.
"He was one man, only one," said her little companion slowly, "yet all the people in the world feared him. He was not born great, he was common as we are; yet he was master of the world at last. Once he was only a little child, then he was a lieutenant, then he was a general, then he was an emperor. When he said a thing to himself he never forgot it. He waited, and waited, and waited, and it came at last."
"He must have been very happy," said Em.
"I do not know," said Lyndall; "but he had what he said he would have, and that is better than being happy. He was their master, and all the people were white with fear of him. They joined together to fight him. He was page: 34 one and they were many, and they got him down at last. They were like the wild cats when their teeth are fast in a great dog, like cowardly wild cats," said the child, "they would not let him go. There were many; he was only one. They sent him to an island on the sea, a lonely island, and kept him there fast. He was one man, and they were many, and they were terrified at him. It was glorious!" said the child.
"And what then?" said Em.
"Then he was alone there in that island with men to watch him always," said her companion, slowly and quietly, "and in the long lonely nights he used to lie awake and think of the things he had done in the old days, and the things he would do if they let him go again. In the day when he walked near the shore it seemed to him that the sea all around him was a cold chain about his body pressing him to death."
"And then?" said Em, much interested.page: 35
"He died there in that island; he never got away."
"It is rather a nice story," said Em; "but the end is sad."
"It is a terrible, hateful ending," said the little teller of the story, leaning forward on her folded arms; "and the worst is, it is true. I have noticed," added the child very deliberately, "that it is only the made-up stories that end nicely; the true ones all end so."
As she spoke the boy's dark, heavy eyes rested on her face.
"You have read it, have you not?"
He nodded. "Yes; but the brown history tells only what he did, not what he thought."
"It was in the brown history that I read of him," said the girl; "but I know what he thought. Books do not tell everything."
"No," said the boy, slowly drawing nearer to her and sitting down at her feet. "What you want to know they never tell."page: 36
Then the children fell into silence, till Doss, the dog, growing uneasy at its long continuance, sniffed at one and the other, and his master broke forth suddenly,—
"If they could talk, if they could tell us now!" he said, moving his hand out over the surrounding objects—"then we would know something. This 'kopje,' if it could tell us how it came here! The 'Physical Geography' says," he went on most rapidly and confusedly, "that what were dry lands now were once lakes; and what I think is this—these low hills were once the shores of a lake; this "kopje" is some of the stones that were at the bottom, rolled together by the water. But there is this—how did the water come to make one heap here alone, in the centre of the plain?" It was a ponderous question; no one volunteered an answer. "When I was small," said the boy, "I always looked at it and wondered, and I thought a great giant was buried under it. page: 37 Now I know the water must have done it; but how? It is very wonderful. Did one little stone come first, and stop the others as they rolled?" said the boy with earnestness, in a low voice, more as speaking to himself than to them.
"Oh, Waldo, God put the little 'kopje' here," said Em with solemnity.
"But how did He put it here?"
"By wanting."
"But how did the wanting bring it here?"
"Because it did."
The last words were uttered with the air of one who produces a clinching argument. What effect it had on the questioner was not evident, for he made no reply, and turned away from her.
Drawing closer to Lyndall's feet, he said after a while, in a low voice,—
"Lyndall, has it never seemed to you that the stones were talking with you? Sometimes," he added in a yet lower tone, "I lie under there page: 38 with my sheep, and it seems that the stones are really speaking—speaking of the old things, of the time when the strange fishes and animals lived that are turned into stone now, and the lakes were here; and then of the time when the little Bushmen lived here, so small and so ugly, and used to sleep in the wild dog holes, and in the 'sloots,' and eat snakes, and shoot the bucks with their poisoned arrows. It was one of them, one of these old wild Bushmen, that painted those," said the boy, nodding toward the pictures—"one who was different from the rest. He did not know why, but he wanted to make something beautiful—he wanted to make something, so he made these. He worked hard, very hard, to find the juice to make the paint; and then he found this place where the rocks hang over, and he painted them. To us they are only strange things, that make us laugh; but to him they were very beautiful."page: 39
The children had turned round and looked at the pictures.
"He used to kneel here naked, painting, painting, painting; and he wondered at the things he made himself," said the boy, rising and moving his hand in deep excitement. "Now the Boers have shot them all, so that we never see a little yellow face peeping out among the stones; and the wild bucks have gone, and those days, and we are here. But we will be gone soon, and only the stones will be on here, looking at everything like they look now. Of course I know," the fellow added slowly, "that it is I who am thinking, not they who are talking; but it seems as though it were them. Has it never seemed to you that things that do not live are talkig to you, Lyndall?"
"No, it never seems so to me," she answered.
The sun had dipped now below the hills, and the boy, suddenly remembering the ewes and lambs, started to his feet.page: 40
"Let us also go to the house and see who has come," said Em, as the boy shuffled away to rejoin his flock, while Doss ran at his heels, snapping at the ends of the torn trousers as they fluttered in the wind.

Neat little course easy to get to from the 16 FWY located in a local city park that offers long open and short technical variety with most all holes involving moderate to extreme hillside elevations and disastrous roll-away potential forcing huckers to think their shots through with more focus. 60/40 grass/woodsy terrain.

Some fun holes good elevation change. A great use of space. Another huge plus is that it is right off the freeway on my way home easy to get to and get out of.
+0 votes Brian "Bones" Norris › January 25, 2012
The course is a challenge, but not so intimidating that a new player such as myself wouldn't have some good fun. Hole Five is missing its Basket, but when we played this weekend had proven not to be an issue. I can't put this course at an A but I do feel that the B+ rating is appropriate, what we have here in easy access to anyone is an awesome time for some exercise and a decent mental challenge.
+0 votes Jeff Nichols › July 10, 2011
NEAT LITTLE COURSE. Short holes (nothing over 300ft), BUT, the elevation changes make some of the holes play MUCH further. Very up and down course, LOTS of elevation changes. Holes 2-5 play in the woods with some Narrow lanes to throw through. Holes 1 and 6-10 are more out in the open but play into some BIG elevation changes. If I lived closer to this course, it would be one I hit often. Check it out if you get a chance. Worth the stop!

2 tee pads for each hole i like that more courses need to do this.

The Bureau County Health Department makes routine and unannounced visits each month to various food service establishments in Bureau and Putnam counties to inspect the operation.
Health inspectors use an identical scorecard at each facility, where they check for health code compliance in 45 areas. Each area carries a rating from one to five, with five being the most critical. Inspectors check the entire operations of the facility in 14 different categories, such as food protection, personnel, and garbage and refuse disposal.
Beginning with a score of 100 points, the health inspector deducts one to five points for every violation. The final total is the facility's inspection report score. A passing food inspection score is 65 or above.
At 65, the Bureau County ordinance allows the health department to close an establishment, but a score doesn't have to be that low for the department to close it. It depends on the number of critical and non-critical violations and the type of violations. Certain combinations can create a domino effect for food borne outbreaks.

Momo is generally harassed by her peers for her tanned skin and bleached hair (all of which come from her devotion to swimming). Her supposed friend, Sae, constantly backstabs her and manipulates those around her into believing that Momo is a whore, slut, etc.; however, Momo's long time crush, Toji, often comes to her defense. In addition, Kairi, the school play boy, comes to notices Momo and begins pursuing her as well but with all this attention, Sae's jealousy... See full review

Pros: amazing sound, good bass, clear highs/mids, comfortable
Cons: they look kind of ugly, questionable durability, open back
I ordered the alessandro ms1 on june 15/2011 and they just arrived today. after many delays from canada post and their strike i finally received it.
i am incredibly impressed and pleased with my purchase.
let's start my review
if i had to complain about anything on these headphones i think it would have to be be the looks and durability. after holding them in my hands i noticed they are made of plastic.and look quite unappealing. durability wise the cord seems a little loosely connected to the headset and i feel twisting might harm it. also they are open back so this makes it hard to take places. they are masters of noise leakage.
Update: The screw which screws the extender to the ear cup has become loose and it keeps falling out. It's not a huge issue as the headphones still work and when their on your head they don't fall out, but it is really annoying.
many people say grado's are uncomfortable. well perhaps they are correct. but these are really comfortable. their lightweight and have comfortable pads.
Sound Quality
ok so this is the most important part. this is only a first impressions so it might change after i get used to it. sound quality is for the most part amazing. these are not harsh or abrasive and they are not honest making listening to badly recorded music more fun. these have loads of bass. those who say they don't are crazy. they are really fast headphones and the mids are very present. the highs are not harsh or sibilant.
now im a metalhead and listen to almost exclusively metal so this is my impressions on that matter.
electric guitar is very forward and fun. it has the energy it needs to have. drums are very present. and bass has a very forward sound to.
now folk metal is another thing. with my shure srh840 i find flutes and folk instruments hard to listen to. these make them clear fun and not screechingly harsh.
now i don't have very much experience with headphones so take my review with a grain of salt but i feel that for $99 these are definitely worth it.
now stop reading this review and buy a pair.

By Ben Levisohn
The good folks at Capital Economics have come up with an indicator to determine which emerging markets are most at risk to a reversal of capital flows. U.S. investors could care less about two countries–Venezuela and Estonia. Two others, however, could hit investors a bit harder.
That would be Turkey and Thailand. Capital Economics explains:
Although capital inflows can help to boost EM growth, they can also sow the seeds of a crisis. One danger is when they are the counterpart to a burgeoning current account deficit, since their reversal may lead to a forced reduction in domestic demand. A number of EM countries have experienced a marked worsening of their trade balances in the past two years (1)…Another potential problem is when inflows contribute to a rapid increase in bank lending, as their reversal may trigger a credit crunch. Such an increase has been a notable feature in Turkey and parts of Latin America (2).
A country is especially vulnerable when it has a low level of foreign currency reserves, as the latter will shrink if capital inflows are less than the current account deficit. If reserves are depleted, the impact of a collapse in the home currency will also be greater if external debt is denominated in foreign currency. Emerging Europe has many countries that appear vulnerable on this metric (3).
Other warning signs include large prior rises in equity prices (4) and currencies (5). Our Capital Economics Risk Indicator uses these five criteria to gauge which countries are most at risk of suffering from a crisis. Based on peak readings over twelve months, Venezuela, Estonia and Turkey are most exposed aside from flood-hit Thailand.
Turkey had been burning through its capital reserves trying to support its currency. It didn't work, so they today its central bank tried a different tack: It hiked rates. The Wall Street Journal has the details:
Turkey raised a key lending rate for the first time in nearly two years, as Ankara joined a growing list of emerging-market central banks forced to tighten policy after weeks of market pressure.
The bank's Monetary Policy Committee raised its overnight lending rate by 0.75 percentage point to 7.25% and signaled that it could tighten further. The bank held its other key rates steady, widening its 'interest rate corridor,' which allows policy makers to vary borrowing costs daily, from an overnight borrowing rate of 3.5% to a lending rate of 7.25%.
Barclays considers whether more hikes are on the way:

What was that noise?
If you let your emotions rule your thinking, you might think a thumping noise was a ghost. If you think like a scientist, however, you ask questions and make observations. You'd observe the shutters are loose and blowing in the wind.
Scientific Ways of Thinking
Modern science is a way of understanding the physical world, based on observable evidence, reasoning, and repeated testing. That means scientists explain the world based on their own observations. If they develop new ideas about the way the world works, they set up a way to test these new ideas.
Thinking Like a Scientist
How can you think like a scientist? Thinking like a scientist is based on asking and answering questions. Though you may not know it, you do this all day long. Scientists ask questions, and then make detailed observations to try to ask more specific questions and develop a hypothesis. They may design and perform an experiment to try to answer their question. From the results of their experiment, scientists draw conclusions.
- Scientists ask questions: The key to being a great scientist is to ask questions. Imagine you are a scientist in the African Congo. While in the field, you observe one group of healthy chimpanzees on the north side of the jungle. On the other side of the jungle, you find a group of chimpanzees that are mysteriously dying. What questions might you ask? A good scientist might ask the following two questions:
- "What differs between the two environments where the chimpanzees live?"
- "Are there differences in behavior between the two groups of chimpanzees?"
- Scientists make detailed observations: To observe means to watch and study attentively. A person untrained in the sciences may only observe, "The chimps on one side of the jungle are dying, while chimps on the other side of the jungle are healthy." A scientist, however, will make more detailed observations. Can you think of ways to make this observation more detailed? What about the number of chimps? Are they male or female? Young or old? What do they eat? A good scientist may observe, "While all seven adult females and three adult males on the north side of the jungle are healthy and show normal behavior, four female and five male chimps under the age of five on the south side have died." Detailed observations can ultimately help scientists design their experiments and answer their questions. From these observations, a scientist will develop a hypothesis to explain the observations. A hypothesis is the scientist's proposed explanation for his observations. The scientist's hypothesis may be that "Young chimps on the south side die due to a lack of nutrients in their diet."
An adult and infant chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes).
- Scientists find answers using tests: When scientists want to answer a question, they search for evidence using experiments. An experiment is a test to see if their explanation is right or wrong. Evidence is made up of the observations a scientist makes during an experiment. To study the cause of death in the chimpanzees, scientists may give the chimps nutrients in the form of nuts, berries, and vitamins to see if they are dying from a lack of food. This test is the experiment. If fewer chimps die, then the experiment shows that the chimps may have died from not having enough food. This is the evidence.
- Scientists question the answers: Good scientists are skeptical. Scientists never use only one piece of evidence to form a conclusion. For example, the chimpanzees in the experiment may have died from a lack of food, but can you think of another explanation for their death? They may have died from a virus, or from another less obvious cause. More experiments need to be completed before scientists can be sure. Good scientists constantly question their own conclusions. They also find other scientists to confirm or disagree with their evidence.
- conclusion: The answer to the proposed question; the meaning of the result or outcome of the experiment based on the evidence.
- evidence: Any type of data that may be used to test a hypothesis.
- experiment: A test to see if a hypothesis is supported; a test to obtain new data.
- hypothesis: A proposed explanation for something that is testable; a proposed explanation that tries to explain an observation.
- observe: To watch and study attentively.
- Modern science is a way of understanding the physical world, based on observable evidence, reasoning, and repeated testing.
- To think like a scientist, you must ask questions, make detailed observations, develop a hypothesis, find answers using tests, and question your answers.
Use the resources below to answer the questions that follow.
- Understanding Science at http://undsci.berkeley.edu/article/scienceflowchart
- Once an experiment has been conducted and the results analyzed, what 4 possible responses are there when interpreting the data?
- How does "peer review" fit into the scientific process? Why is it so important?
- In the flowchart, what 5 processes are involved in "Exploration and Discovery"? Do you think any one of these processes is more important than the others? Explain your reasoning fully.
One of the best ways to understand how a scientist thinks is to listen to one. Watch this clip and listen to the extremely renowned scientist Carl Sagan, explain the importance of evidence, possibilities, probabilities, skepticism, and "making sense."
- Extraordinary Claims Require Extraordinary Evidence at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKXmjn3G_xQ (8:20)
- What question does Dr. Sagan address in this clip? Do you think this is an interesting question? Why or why not?
- Why is something "sounding plausible" or "making sense" just a starting point for scientists?
- Do you find the "Hill Map" to be convincing evidence? Why or why not? Explain your thinking as fully as you can.
- Does a lack of evidence mean something is not true? Why or why not? Explain your thinking as fully as you can.
- What is modern science?
- How do you think scientifically?

You are here
The Charleston Symphony Orchestra (CSO) has certainly weathered some storms, and it was wonderful to see a substantial crowd of supporters turn out to the Charleston Symphony Orchestra League Designer Showcase. The CSO celebrated the start of its 76th year at the historic Whilden-Hirsch House at 73 Rutledge Avenue with exquisite interior design work, cocktails, and heavy hors d'oeuvres.
While many fundraisers greet guests with cocktails, the Designer Showcase welcomed everyone with a pair of protective booties as they crossed the threshold. Partygoers slipped on the bright blue booties with a laugh before setting off to tour the home, which featured the work of Cynthia Zimmerman, Donna Horack, Kathy Evans, Lydia Gieczy, Mark Phelps, and Duval Acker. Each designer worked on a separate room, and each was more beautiful than the last.
After touring the designers' spaces, people exited through the kitchen for a courtyard cocktail party and dining al fresco. Partygoers, symphony supports, and designers chatted and nibbled on ravioli, crab cakes, and cured vegetables while discussing upcoming CSO events.
The Charleston Symphony Orchestra League Designer Showcase was presented by the Charleston Symphony Orchestra League, Inc., which is celebrating its 35th anniversary year, in participation with Charleston Magazine. The Charleston Symphony Orchestra League, Inc strives to support the Charleston Symphony Orchestra through music education programs, audience development, and fundraising projects.

Beijing Zoo is No Place for Pandas
I am a Panda lover. I work as a support engineer in an I.T company here in the United Kingdom. Most of my spare time is spent watching different Panda videos -- both old and new videos. Basically, it is my therapy; a 'stress release' for me. I find them to be adorable and precious creatures. As a matter of fact, I would like to volunteer to come to Sichuan. I want to experience and feel what it's like to be a Panda keeper, to be able to interact with them for real. The Panda is China's National Treasure, so it's a shame to watch the Panda videos from Beijing zoo, as the place is disgusting and not ideal for Pandas to live in (and for sure for all the rest of the animals who unfortunately got stuck in this prison cell).The place looks like a ghost town. Lifeless and languished. Knowing that Pandas wear a thick fur on their body, can you imagine what it feels for them in 30C or 35C (summer temperature)? What it probably feels like all the time? Come on, if you really care, you must do something now, otherwise these Pandas will die. Please bring them back to their sanctuary where they really belong. █

By Ben Levisohn
Heading into today's central bank meeting, economists had been debating whether Colombia would leave rates on hold or cut by a quarter point. Those betting on the status quo won.
Here's Bloomberg succinct summation:
Banco de la Republica, led by bank Governor Jose Dario Uribe, held its benchmark interest rate at 3.25 percent today in line with the forecasts of 19 of 31 analysts surveyed by Bloomberg. Twelve analysts predicted a quarter-point cut. Uribe said that the board's decision was unanimous.
Citigroup's Munir Jalil and Jose Vicente Romero were not surprised:
As we expected, Banrep took a more conservative approach in this meeting, after surprisingly reducing the Repo rate 50bp back in March. In our view, the behavior of inflation and the fact that core economic activities are displaying a deceleration have provided Banrep with monetary policy space to reduce its repo rate. However, the fact a fiscal policy package was just announced recently, should take some weight off Banrep's burden regarding economic activity.
