Welcome Video
South West Peregrine were formed in 2007. The Group was formed to continue the work of Richard Treleaven (MBE) (1920 -2009), who had been studying the lives of Peregrines on the North Cornish Coast since the late 1940's. Dick as he was popularly known was recognised for many years as one of the foremost authorities on the Peregrine Falcons (Falco peregrinus) and his extensive knowledge and infectious enthusiasm for the birds brought him into contact with many specialists all over the world.
We are committed to the BTO's Nest Record Scheme. The team is full of willing and enthusiastic volunteers, who put in many hours of work to collect this data around Cornish and Devon Coastlines.
2014 saw South West Peregrine partake in the National Peregrine Survey; with the BTO organisers and independent groups and volunteers the majority of Devon and Cornwall has been surveyed and a set of comprehensive data submitted.
We regularly exhibit at local and national events as well as being available to give talks to other groups and clubs.
Educational visits to schools are available to book and have proven to be a rewarding experience to the children involved, click here for details on how to arrange a visit from the team.
Research into peregrine behaviour forms an important part of our study and wherever possible this is shared via regular website updates and video postings.
We are pleased to be affiliated to the Hawk and Owl Trust and believe the partnering of the group to a national organisation is important in helping to preserve the Peregrine and other Birds of Prey for future generations.

CHICAGO -- The WWE idea of Fan Axxess has changed over the years, from one big permanent event near the site of WrestleMania to a moving road show, going from town to town to spread the WWE gospel.
For Thursday and Friday, Fan Axxess was plunked into the middle of the Woodfield Mall in Schaumberg, Illinois, one of many Chicago suburbs.
Centered as it was in visible part of the mall, Fan Axxess drew lots of walk-by gawkers as well as the regular WWE fans from close-by and far away.
Daniel, 20, and Al, 20, were part of a gang from Belfast, Northern Ireland, who were psyched about getting to meet many wrestlers, Fit
Finlay taking the Money In The Bank match, and having their Northern Ireland flag signed by fellow servant of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, that wannabe pirate Paul Burchill.
The flag, they hope, will bring attention to them all weekend. "Just to get on TV, you never see Northern Ireland flags anywhere," explained Al.
Besides the wrestling, Daniel admitted to being in awe of American excess. "In Belfast, we've got one mall, and it's about a quarter the size of this one," he said.
From closer by were Michael, 18, of South Elgin, Illinois, and Stephanie, 18, from nearby Algonqujin. They came to both Friday's Fan Axxess event, with signings by Matt Hardy and Ashley, and Saturday's, with Burchill, the Gymini, Lance Cade, and an injured Val Venis, with his arm in a sling.
"It was great to meet the guys you see on TV every week," said Michael. "It's like a dream come true."
His companion, Stephanie, was only getting into wrestling again. She was disappointed by the no-show of Road Warrior Animal. "I'm not into wrestling as much now," she said. "So I know all the old guys."
The lines for autographs were restricted to 200 passes on Friday, and 300 on Saturday. Near the very back of Saturday's line was Matt, 16, from Essen, Germany. He's been in Chicago since Monday, hitting as many of the events as possible before taking in his first-ever live wrestling show Sunday night from ringside. "It's pretty cool," he said. "Everything is free."
Crowds at the Fan Axxess event were well paved, said one mall security guard, comparing fans to a church group.
Sponsored by the National Guard, and with many uniformed men and women visible, Fan Axxess seems built for portability, and quick tear-down and set-up. Some of the things available for fans included:
Fan Axxess sets up in the parking lot of the AllState Arena in Rosemont, Illinois on Sunday.
Greg Oliver is the Producer of SLAM! Wrestling and is in Chicago for WrestleMania weekend. He can be emailed at email@example.com.

19 August 2010
PL/SQL Challenge was unavailable for 3 Hours on 19 August
We apologize for any inconvenience. Our policy is to void the quiz if it is unavailable for four or more hours, so the quiz is still on for today.
Regards, Steven
2 comments:
If a quiz is voided for a day, does it count as a 'no question day', a 'nobody answered the question day' or a 'everybody got zero for that question on that day'.ReplyDelete
Just wondering how it gets incorporated into the ten days for the forgiveness policy. Unusual cases like that tend to be forgotten in testing.
Excellent question, Gary. I expect that what I will do when I "void" a day is actually to treat everyone the same: that is, everyone played and gets credit. I have tested the site and backend enough to know that it doesn't handle "gaps" in quizzes well at all, and I haven't found the time to sort it out. Fortunately, this is all currently hypothetical and hopefully it will stay that way. :-)ReplyDelete
Ah the realities of building and maintaining software applications with very minimal resources.

The ProblemI used to cringe when students brought in their treasures to share. It wasn't that I didn't enjoy reading their creations. Students write wonderful stories. I love them! The problem was that I didn't have a good place to store their books or a system for circulation.
Student authored books are generally thin paperbacks, and they disappear into the stacks if shelved among hard cover editions.
Another problem was that I didn't know whether to actually let them circulate. How would other students treat these books? What if a little sibling tore or wrote on it?
At my current school, students LOVE to write. Many students write books as part of their action for the PYP Exhibition, and our collection is growing. When I first arrived there were a few titles on the shelves, and by the end of the first year we had nearly a dozen books written by students. The collection continued to grow, but no one (beyond the author, his/her parents, and teacher) knew they existed.
Our SolutionSeeing the cover is critical for circulating student-authored books, so they now have their own acrylic display stand. It is located in a prominent location, on a low shelf, just as you enter the Media Centre. It is at eye level for most primary students.
The ProcedureWhen a student has a book they would like circulated through the library, they can either bring in a hard copy or email a soft-copy. Hard copies are first scanned into a PDF version and then the pages are bound with a comb binding and clear cover (to show off the student's artwork); soft-copies are printed and bound. The cover is saved as a jpg. Then the books are barcoded and added to our catalog. After changing it several times, we settled on STUDENT AUTHORS as the call number. This allows us to move the display around.
As part of our processing, most books are uploaded to our library's ISSUU account.
Within the record is a link to the ebook version:
Of the 13 titles on ISSUU, statistics show they have been read 87 times! That beats the print copy stats fourfold.
One of the things I love best is how the students treat each other's work. Reverent is the word that comes to mind. Students almost always ask if they may borrow them and take the books home - no assumptions are made - and they all seem to treat this as a special gift. Thus far, all books have come back intact and on time.

Maiko kimono
Added Mar 3, 2013
Lelystad, Nether...
There are several types of kimono's. For men, for women, seasonal, for kids, funeral, wedding, casual, offical, etc. I've made three maiko kimono with matching obi, because I wanted to ^^
For the kimono I've used this website: http://kurokami-kanzashi.deviantart.com
I've made an maiko obi, about 6 mtr long and 33 cm wide.
Here's a link to a document about "how to dress up as a geisha" http://mommy-silver.deviantart.com/art/How-to-dress-up-as-a-geisha-189754558
Oh, the wig? I've made it all by myself. Bought five wigs, all black. Stripped four and sewn the hairpieces into the fifth. With a lot of hairglue I've shaped the hair. The kanzashi, hair ornaments, are also based on the website of kurokami-kanzashi. Tutorials are copy-right free, but it's polite not to steal.

You didn't think we were only going to talk about the new Epic, did you? Now we wrap things up from Camp Tamarancho, California with more highlights of Specialized's mountain bike and equipment lineup for 2009.
Go big
Last year's popular SX Trail gets an all-new M5 alloy frame and four-bar rear suspension linkage that offers increased standover, more seatpost height adjustment, better square-edged bump performance and more progression at the end of the stroke for improved bottom-out resistance. Rear wheel travel stays at a versatile 170mm and in contrast to last year's version, geometry is now fixed. A 100mm-travel version optimised for slalom and four-cross will be on hand as well.
Not to be outdone by its shorter travel cousins, the new SX also receives a tapered-and-oversized 1 1/8"-to-1 1/2" front end and a clever shock mounting arrangement that eliminates wear at the rearmost DU shock bushing. Specialized fits the bottom bracket area with both a DMD front derailleur mount [mounts directly to the swingarm] and standard ISCG tabs to accommodate a wide variety of setups and, as usual, tosses in a healthy dose of cold forgings throughout for durability.
Value-oriented riders also get a new BigHit for 2009 whose revised linkage arrangement provides similar improvements in standover clearance, seatpost adjustability and shock bushing wear as on the new SX. Travel on the four-bar rear end has been brought down a bit from 208mm (8.2") to 191mm (7.5") but the front end beefs up with a tapered-and-oversized head tube to accommodate the new crop of burly single-crown forks. As on the SX, the BigHit will also include DMD and ICSG mounts as well as fixed geometry.
The new Big Hit also gets a new rear suspension layout that allows for lower standover heights and more seatpost adjustment than before.
Changes at the mid-range for FSRxc and Myka platforms
Trickle-down technology arrives at the FSRxc level for 2009 with an all-new M4 alloy frame that bumps up rear wheel travel to 120mm, thus moving it more into the trail bike category than last year's 100mm-travel model. The rocker link-style arrangement bears strong resemblance to the premium Stumpjumper frame and provides the same benefits: more standover clearance, greatly increased seatpost height adjustment range and a lower centre of gravity for better handling. Riders living in muddier climes should also note that the rear shock is now shielded from debris kicked off of the rear wheel by a double-bent full-length seat tube.
New for 2009 is a completely revamped FSR XC chassis which upgrades to the Stumpjumper's rocker link-type suspension layout and upgrades to 120mm of travel.
The women's-specific Myka receives the same revised chassis and suspension layout but travel remains at 100mm to better suit the segment's typically shorter and lighter riders. As is the case with Specialized's other D4W (Designs for Women) bikes, the Myka gets smaller and lighter tubing, women's-specific geometry and segment-appropriate componentry.
The women's-specific Myka gets the same basic suspension layout as the new FSR XC but sticks with 100mm which Specialized feels is more appropriate for the segment's typically shorter and lighter riders.
Componentry offerings for 2009
The Enduro SL platform will carry over essentially unchanged for 2009 but a few upgrades in componentry should improve reliability and versatility over last year. Specialized's dual-crown E150 fork internals have been revised with fewer o-rings for easier (read: more reliable) assembly at the factory while a new telescoping Command Post will come as standard equipment on top models.
The 2009 Enduro SL platform is essentially unchanged for 2009.
The three-position Command Post will provide 35mm or 110mm of drop via a convenient bar-mounted remote and the internal mechanism uses a clever collet system developed by in-house suspension guru Mike McAndrews. Just a single 30.9mm size will be offered for now and total weight is pegged at around 430g. Pricing is yet to be determined but Specialized says its Command Post will be competitive with other similar products from Crankbrothers and Gravity Dropper.
Gram-shaving is the name of the game for Specialized's 2009 Roval Contrôle SL wheelset which sheds 40g courtesy of a new carbon-tubed front hub. Bladed straight-pull DT Aerolite spokes replace the standard Contrôle XC's DT Revolution spokes, too. The Stan's NoTubes-like M5 alloy rim carries over for easy tubeless compatibility while the quick release skewers have been upgraded to all-metal construction. Claimed weight for the pair is 1385g without skewers.
Last year's versatile Traversée wheelset carries over but yet another set of interchangeable end caps will now allow for compatibility with 15mm thru-axle forks. Likewise, the standard Contrôle XC Disc wheelset continues on for another year but Specialized will add a stealthy black finish to the palette for 2009.
Most of the saddle lineup is mostly unchanged as well although the popular Alias will get a smoother stitch-free cover to reduce irritation. New to the lineup is the mountain bike-specific Format SL which uses a similar profile to last year's Rival but with a more rounded rear profile for easier movement off the back and a cutout shell in the nose to relieve more pressure. Hollow titanium rails and lightweight foam padding bring the weight down as low as 230g.
A few new treads
Specialized will expand its healthy range of tread designs by three for the coming season and add key sizes to fill in missing gaps. The new Purgatory is the wet-and-loamy analogue to the Eskar with a meaty 2.2" casing width and open tread blocks designed to shed mud and debris. Similarly, the new downhill-specific Clutch is intended for wetter conditions with an aggressive open tread and soft 40a/42a dual compound rubber but will be available in even bigger 2.3" and 2.5" sizes. An optional SX casing will bring the weight of the Clutch down to a light (for downhill) 1000g.
For the dirt jumping crowd, there's a new Rhythm Lite with a low-profile and fast-rolling tread design. There will be just a single 2.3" casing size but it's relatively light at 600g.
New sizes for existing treads include 2.2" casing widths in both 26" and 29" diameters for the versatile Captain, a burly 29x2.3" Eskar, a more usable 26x2.0" SauserWind and 29" versions of the FastTrak LK. Conveniently, all of the new tyres for 2009 will be tubeless-ready.
Covered from head to toe
Off-road riders looking for a bit more protection can tap into a new Tactic helmet for 2009 which offers additional coverage around the base of the skull like last year's Instinct but with a far more flattering shape and neatly integrated aFIX removable visor. Specialized also includes a vertically adjustable ProFit 270 retention system and InnerMatrix internal reinforcement structure all for just US$60 retail.
The new Tactic helmet is just US$60 retail but sports a far more expensive-looking appearance.
The rest of the lineup is mostly carryover including the top-end S-Works helmet which still weighs in at a near-record setting 200g or so. US-spec models are subject to tighter safety standards, though, and were beefed up last year as a result, adding about 20g as compared to other markets.
On the optics front, the Roulette is essentially a women's version of the Arcterra with a similar one-piece NXT lens and hingeless stainless steel frame but in a more stylish shape. On the other hand, the Strafe is more of a 'lifestyle' piece with its more casual look and road-oriented rose tint. Both continue to use Specialized's NXT lens material (claimed to be stronger and more optically pure than polycarbonate) and are available in either in either Adaptalite photochromic or fixed tint versions.
Last year's popular Pro MTB shoe gets a complete overhaul with a full-length carbon plate and more aggressive outsole borrowed from the top-end S-Works model. The new Micromatrix synthetic upper gains an easier-to-use SL buckle as well as a synthetic heel cup liner for better hold, improved feel and reduced water retention. The men's version will be offered in narrow, standard and wide widths and female riders will receive their own specific version as well.
The Pro MTB shoe has been thoroughly revamped this year with a new upper and a new full-length carbon sole similar to the S-Works version.
Winter is still a way off for most of the world but those planning on playing in the snow might want to take a look at Specialized's new Defroster MTB shoe. Specialized claims the ankle-high Defroster is completely waterproof (it's even sealed at the cleat inserts) and it's also insulated. The injection-molded plate is fitted with a softer tread for use in colder temperatures, too, and unlike some other high-end offerings, the Defroster will be available in both whole and half sizes.
Not to be overlooked is Specialized's apparel lineup for 2009. The new BG Pro RBX chamois is thicker and larger for longer-distance riders while the BG Pro SL pad is intentionally lower profile and thinner for those that prefer less of a 'diaper' feel. Both are offer in men's and women's versions and use multi-thickness and multi-density padding.
The corresponding RBX and SL shorts are also built with those rider types in mind; the RBX is constructed with heavier-weight fabrics while the SL uses lighter-weight materials, more mesh and lower-profile grippers at the leg openings.
Off-road riders of all types also get a variety of baggy shorts, tops and even knickers.
Specialized expands partnership with Susan G. Komen foundation
Specialized pledged a minimum US$10,000 donation to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation last year through sales of a special-edition Propero helmet. For 2009, the company has expanded that commitment 25-fold to a quarter-million dollars and extended the range of offerings to gloves, saddles, shoes and even bikes.
Specialized will expand its range of pink ribboned products to include bikes, shoes, gloves and other women's-specific gear. Ten percent of all applicable sales will be donated to the Komen foundation.
Each of the special-edition products will feature unique colorways and graphics which, naturally, will incorporate the signature pink ribbon. Ten percent of all sales will be donated to the foundation.

Kanab? You Bet It Can.
There may be sexier-sounding travel destinations -- Istanbul? Cinque Terre? -- but few can boast Kanab's outdoor access and return on investment. (And if you got that red-rock fever, you'll take Zion over the Blue Mosque at any price.)
Sitting on the southern border halfway between St. George and Lake Powell, Kanab is home base to a baker's dozen Utah adventures. Easy access to Bryce Canyon's evergreens & hoodoos or to Zion's desert washes & bright blue skies.
Whether you're visiting Utah or you've lived here for years and feel guilty about sights unseen, Kanab is the perfect place to set up shop and tick items off your bucket list.

Earlier today thousands of Borderlands fans flocked to UStream for the chance to catch some gameplay footage of the popular game's upcoming sequel. They got a little — very little — but first they got a whole lot more.
Three days of no sleep and German spirits weigh heavily on Gearbox marketing and PR VP Steve Gibson and friends as they broadcast live from Gamescom this afternoon, talking about the various merits of Borderlands 2 via an extremely brief gameplay demonstration and a pre-written question and answer session. That should explain the Cosby impression, the occassional foul language, and the gleeful imaginary pony riding.
What it doesn't excuse is the sad flashes of gameplay that occured during the 30-minute presentation. You're seeing all the gameplay I saw in the video above.
Steve looked just as surprised as I was when the camera panned backed to him the first time, so I get the feeling he really wanted to show everyone more. Hell, he got the guys to act it out for us. That counts for something!

From the Starz Denver Film Festival:
"Many films about the underdog going forth to pursue her dreams address the initial attempt; The One Who Loves You is about the failed 'happily ever after.' Gloria, a mediocre singer with hopeless optimism, finds herself back in her small South Carolina hometown after trying to hit it big in New York City. She is received with mixed reactions—contempt from her sister for having delusions of grandeur, awe from townspeople for her has-been days. It soon becomes painfully clear that after someone leaves home to go out into the world, they change drastically, while back home, things are stagnant. You can never be on the same page again.
Gloria meets local shyster Roy, who bounces from woman to woman. They either feel sorry for him or are enchanted by his charm. He seems to believe in Gloria, and her faith in herself is renewed. Roy tells Gloria he used to manage a popular country star and persuades her to give her career another shot. When he disappears, Gloria heads to Nashville to find him. Disappointment naturally follows, but rather than return home, Gloria finds new strength and thrives in a time when others would throw in the towel.
The One Who Loves You's style pays tribute to New Hollywood cinema, but Beaty Reynolds's script avoids the bleak resolutions so common to that era. Contemporary pictures set in the mid-1970s can appear ridiculous, but here the set design, props, and costumes are fabulously authentic…With music recorded especially for the film, The One Who Loves You will linger in your memory."

Eight starters lead Annawan-Wethersfield into 2013 season
The only thing holding back the Annawan-Wethersfield baseball team is the weather.
Coach Jeff Parsons returns eight starters from a Titans team that tied a school record with 27 wins and notched the program's third straight regional championship.
"The sky is the limit," said Parsons of his 2013 squad.
The Titans have yet to take the field — losing seven games to the weather to date — but when they do Parsons will be able to put a player with extensive varsity experience at nearly every position.
"Our team speed is good and the defense will be solid as most of our seniors have been part of three straight regional titles," said Parsons. "We hit well over .300 as a team last year and our top six hitters are back."
Seniors leading the Titans are outfielder Trey Hannam, third baseman and pitcher Tyler Litton, shortstop and pitcher Cody Phillips, catcher and pitcher Kegan Jacobson, first baseman and pitcher Zach VanWassenhove, and pitcher and utility man Tony Gripp.
Juniors returning with varsity experience are second baseman and pitcher Trevor Lay and lefty staff ace Matt Jenkins.
Also back in the mix is senior outfielder Grant Baele, and he's joined by four junior newcomers — Jake Bennett, Blake Vincent, Austin Osborne and Micam Smith — battling for varsity time.
The Titans will face a new challenge in the postseason as they step up to 2A come regional time.
"With the jump to 2A, we look to have continued success in the postseason," said Parsons, "but realizing it will be more challenging."
The upperclassmen from Annawan and Wethersfield are no strangers to success in the 2012-13 sports calendar.
"The football team made a run to the final eight, the basketball teams were successful and so we hope to keep it rolling in the spring," said Parsons. "We should be one of the top teams in the area."
Parsons is assisted by Jason Burkiewicz, Logan Willits and Gary Moore.
A-W baseball roster
Seniors — Trey Hannam (OF), Grant Baele (OF/P), Dylan Gustaitis (OF/IF), Cody Phillips (IF, P), Robert Williams (IF, OF, C), Kegan Jacobson (IF, OF, P, C), Zach VanWassenhove (IF, OF, P), Tony Gripp (IF, OF, C, P), Tyler Litton (IF, OF, P) and Cody Palen (OF)
Juniors — Ricco Wilder (IF, OF), Micam Smith (OF), Trevor Lay (IF, OF, P), Jake Bennett (IF, OF, P), Matt Jenkins (IF, OF, P), Austin Osborne (IF, OF, P, C), Dylan Buckley (IF, OF) and Blake Vincent (IF, OF)
Sophomores — Bo VanOpdorp (IF, OF, P), Tyler Nelson (OF), Braeden Winter (IF, OF, P), Tanner VerShaw (IF, OF), Bryce Schwerbrock (IF, OF, P) and Baley Jagers (IF, OF, C)

A family-friendly new remake of Journey to The Center of the Earth will probably make us wish we were stuck in the Land of the Lost. Brendan Fraser plays a geologist who explores a hidden passage through the Earth's crust after he receives a mysterious message in an ancient artifact. He discovers a world of strange creatures. Click through for production stills, and reasons to dread this film.
Fraser's scientist character has been discredited because of his crazy theories, but then he discovers the passageway into the deep caverns underground. The film was shot using the 3-D camera system developed by James Cameron for 2009's Avatar.
- Brendan Fraser rules in art films like The Quiet American and Gods And Monsters, but he has a history of Monkeybone-ing his way through a horrendous spate of lighter films.
- The lack of buzz about a movie coming out in July is a little worrying.
Let's just pray that an earlier Journey script, in which an explorer finds vampires at the Earth's center, left no trace on this one.
- It's another pointless 3-D movie, cashing in on Beowulf's success and Avatar anticipation.
- Fraser has a 13-year-old nephew tagging along, played by Josh Hutcherson (Zathura, Little Manhattan).
- Director Eric Brevig is another newbie who's only done special effects work before (just like Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem's Strause brothers.)

Book of Saints – Agatha – 5 February – Martyr
AGATHA (Saint) Virgin Martyr (February 5) (3rd century) Palermo and Catania both claim the honour of being the birthplace of this famous Sicilian Saint, whose name, enshrined in the Litany of the Saints and in the Canon of the Mass, appears in the old Martyrology of Carthage and in all others, Greek and Latin. In the numerous frescoes and sculptures which have come down to us from antiquity, she is represented holding a pair of pincers or with other instruments of the tortures to which she was subjected. The traditional details of her bitter Passion are given in the Lections for her Feast in the Roman Breviary. After suffering exquisite tortures, she died of her wounds in prison at Catania, during the persecution under Decius (A.D. 250). The miracles by which her intercession has preserved Catania in successive eruptions of Mount Etna are well authenticated. Her Acts in Latin, alleged to be based on others from the pen of an eye-witness of her martyr-dom, are substantially reliable.

This is the fifth in a series of posts in which I'm transcribing a document that belonged to my father titled "History of the 81st Field Hospital." It details the hospital's preparations in the U.S. before deployment and operations in Germany during WWII. This field hospital eventually reached German concentration camp survivors.
[Page 5]
We found all our buildings dirty with personal belongings left behind by the former occupants. Within 24 hours, and with the help of DP labor, we had all our facilities in working order and ready for operation. We found it more convenient and practical to secure our rations, water and gasoline through local distribution points. Our supplies (Medical and General) and also all hospital laundry were taken care of by our own headquarters.
It was found by the officer in charge of the blood unit servicing our platoon to be impractical for them to deliver blood each morning as is customary to field hospitals operating under normal conditions. It was agreed that whenever the need for blood should arise we could obtain some, and also keep enough blood on hand for our anticipated needs. It was further agreed that we should return all unused blood three days before expiration date and exchange it for fresh blood. We were serviced by a blood dispensing unit presently attached to the 132d Evac Hospital at Neckarsulm, 10 miles from our location.
Due to the difficulty of obtaining large size x-ray film from Medical Depots, we experimented with captured German x-ray film. We worked in close liaison with the French dispensary located in the DP Center. We agreed that all DP patients must first pass through the French dispensary. If they required hospitalization or further dispensary treatment which could not be obtained at the French dispensary for lack of proper equipment and supplies, they were then admitted to our hospital, and if the patient was a member of the DP Center at Weinsburg, they they passed through the French dispensary also.
We received patients from the 93d, 95th and 132d Evac Hospitals as well as from the Weinsburg DP Camp. Our capacity was 100-beds but could have been expanded to 150-beds if necessary. We had our own electricity throughout the entire area generated by our own generators. Also telephone communication was established from the administrative building to the various wards through field phones. Aside from the water we got each day, all other water was obtained through the town water supply which was very irregular. However, ample water was obtained for hospital use and also for the washing machine, which was used for all personnel laundry. Our mess facilities were in a tent and we had three latrines in the field to supplement the ones in our living quarters and hospital buildings. This was done to combat the irregular water supply necessary for proper sanitary methods in maintaining building latrines.
We didn't have much captured material along medical lines to use in the hospital, but made the maximum use of desks, lamps, chairs, typewriters and other office equipment. The dispensary handled emergency cases in addition to our personnel. The Dental Clinic did a lot of emergency work from the DP Center. We had a visitor in the person of Lt Col Elder who was Chief Sanitary Inspector in charge of DP Centers for the Seventh Army.
We used to the maximum all the DP labor here for miscellaneous duties in wards, washing, general labor and maintenance work. This proved very satisfactory and also helped carry the load as far as our mess was concerned. 90 patients passed through the hospital while Unit A was at Weinsburg.

Melancholic / Phlegmatic
The melancholic-phlegmatic is tidier, more procedural and less flexible than the phlegmatic-melancholic. He may be slower to take on new projects, as the melancholic fear of new situations and tendency to perfectionism takes over. The double-dose of introversion, along with the melancholic tendency to negativity, makes it difficult for him to give compliments and make upbeat small talk. It also causes him to instinctively say "no" when he first hears a request. Others may perceive this as "snobbishness." Unless the melancholic-phlegmatic is very comfortable, and is surrounded by understanding long-time friends, he may find himself somewhat isolated and alone, unable to warm up in a social gathering. He is less critical and less grudge-bearing than a pure melancholic or a melancholic-choleric. However, the tendency of the melancholic to dwell on things for a long time in their mind, combined with the sensitivity of the phlegmatic toward interpersonal relationships, can result in long-lasting hurts, an erosion of self-confidence and self-esteem, and even depression. Extremely sensitive and possessing a longing for the ideal (melancholic), they are also highly attentive to what others need or desire, through their phlegmatic aspect. This makes them more than usually susceptible to anxiety and a negative self-image
This temperament combination is highly driven to succeed—not for success' sake alone, but because their melancholic nature is drawn to high ideals, and their phlegmatic side will have a strong desire to please. Thus, they are capable of long-range planning, organization, and attention to detail that makes them excellent and conscientious scholars. They are capable of pursuing highly idealistic goals, usually with long-term academic requirements, such as attaining their doctorate. They value their friendships, but can spend many hours alone reading or studying. They may have a tendency to hypochondria or to genuine physical weaknesses, as well as a tendency to timidity and anxiety, especially about new activities or ventures.
One melancholic-phlegmatic we know is highly organized, critical, slow, and dogmatically unforgiving, yet reveals her phlegmatic aspect in her intense discomfort with confrontation (unless she is very at ease among the warring members) and in her strong relationships with her friends. You wouldn't guess that she is so devoted to her friends, however, because true to her melancholic nature she rarely initiates contact with them – they always have to call her first. A tendency to avoid the stresses of social interaction by spending overmuch time alone—whether in scholarly pursuits or reading for relaxation—is something that melancholic-phlegmatics need to watch out for.
If your temperament is melancholic-phlegmatic, for a better understanding of your temperament it is recommended that you read the full descriptions of the melancholic and phlegmatic.
Ugh! Melancholic… sounds so negative. Damn. Really, I'm not that bad. But this is almost spot on. 😦 Sigh… But I shall point out, I'm not organzied. In fact, during the entire test, I put that I was not organized at all. Hmm.
Where is the optimism in all this?!
For those of us who are curious this is the link. But it's a catholic site and you have to sign up for a free profile. I deleted mine right after I got my test results…

Construction of new LEED-certified Eat'n Park to begin in Fox Chapel
We are excited to introduce Eat'n Park's latest and biggest step toward being a greener company and supporting sustainability. This month, we'll be breaking ground on a brand new Eat'n Park in Fox Chapel. What makes it green? This will be the first LEED-built restaurant in the City of Pittsburgh and only the second in Allegheny County.
LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification means that the restaurant was designed using strategies aimed at improving energy savings, water efficiency, CO2 emissions reduction, and other metrics that are critical to efficient use of natural resources in order to minimize the restaurant's impact on the environment.
Located in the Waterworks development of Fox Chapel, this new restaurant is scheduled to open in May of 2010. In addition to incorporating elements that will enhance our guests' experiences (such as a drive-up Pickup Window for takeout and outdoor seating), we're constructing the building from environmentally-friendly materials, and we're installing Energy Star-rated equipment throughout.
We'll also be harvesting natural light through the use of skylights and an exposed lobby structure, allowing us to reduce the power used through electric lights whenever it's bright outside. The restaurant will be equipped with light sensors to automatically dim the electric lights when it's bright. Additionally, our parking lot will feature reserved spaces for carpooling and low-emissions vehicles.
If you've kept up with Jamie Moore's posts on sustainability, you know that we've been taking steps to reduce our environmental impact by using CFL bulbs in all of our restaurants, recycling fryer oil into bio-diesel fuel, removing placemats and paper towels, and sourcing food locally through our FarmSource program. This new restaurant is a huge step, and we can't wait to share it with you.
As construction progresses, we'll be posting updates here. In the meantime, feel free to leave us your thoughts.

About the blog
Throughout this blog, we hope to share a bit of our culture with you through stories, recipes, and other information that we think you'll enjoy. More importantly, we hope you'll share with us – we want to answer those questions you've always had about Eat'n Park (how did we come up with that name, anyway?) and we want to hear your ideas, feedback, and hopefully, a few compliments too!
So, please feel free to comment on postings that pique your curiosity. We'll do our best to respond to questions within 72 hours. Please keep in mind that we are a family restaurant; comments containing offensive language will not be posted.

Big Diurnal Range in Temperature
Why so large a range? Most important have been clear skies and our strengthening sun. You feel the warmth? Remember the sun right now is as strong as in mid October, with much longer days than two months ago. And the clear skies associated with high pressure aloft allow maximum heating during the day and maximum cooling at night as the earth radiates infrared energy to space.
But why no clouds and fog...which often occur in midwinter? The secret is that we have a modest east-west pressure difference (higher pressure to the east), which is producing easterly flow across and down the western Cascade slopes. Such downslope air produces drying and warming. Check out the latest profiler data from north Seattle...you can see the easterly flow.
But too much easterly flow would cause warming due to compression and keep our temperatures up at night. But fortunately for diurnal temperature range lovers the easterly flow is strong enough to keep us clear, but not strong enough to cause too much warming.
These conditions will continue through the weekend...warm enough for tee shirts during the day, but cold enough for frost in the morning at many locations.
Today's Contest: WHO HAS THE LARGEST DIURNAL RANGE?
PSS: There is an article in the Seattle Times today (Saturday) on the early spring

Yeah, I was working outside with my dad today here east of the mts. and we're getting a huge range too.
Three spring like observations today. Cumulus builds along our area ridgetops, whirlwinds and heat radiation causing mirages this afternoon.

Try 32 to 58 in Bellingham yesterday! A 26 degree differential! I am actually enjoying de-icing the vehicle these last few bright mornings, with the secure knowledge that I will be sunbathing at lunchtime. I will say that this is my best winter yet and allow that this isn't true for everybody. I do wish there was some fresh snow for my weekend. :( I'll just hike up Chuckanut Mtn. instead. : )

Saturday Morning we experienced a low of 29 degrees here in the Middle Fork of the Snoqualmie valley. By mid afternoon it topped out at 62 degrees, a 33 degree swing just like Corie experienced. Keeping plants in the greenhouses for now.

Mars 04
Goals: Mars 4 was to orbit Mars (along with Mars 5), taking pictures and conducting remote-sensing experiments on the atmosphere and surface, and to serve as a communications relay for the Mars 6 and 7 landers.
Accomplishments: Faulty transistors disabled the spacecraft's ability to slow down and enter an orbit around Mars, so Mars 4 became a flyby mission. It transmitted the results of one imaging session and some radio occultation data which constituted the first detection of the nightside ionosphere on Mars. Following the flyby, Mars 4 returned data about the interplanetary environment.

The aces duel between Mets Johan Santana and Cardinals Chris Carpenter was a perfect finale for this series.
Mets won the first and third game of the matchup, and needed to take this one to claim the series.
Johan allowed one run in the first inning, giving the Cardinals the upper hand. While, Chris Carpenter pitched marvelously and looked unstoppable for the first three innings. However, the fourth inning, gave a different tale.
As the game went along, Santana grew stronger by surrendering just one more run during his tenure. On the other hand, Carpenter blew the game up in the fourth inning, giving up a double by 1B Nick Evans, which consequently tallied in three runs for the Metropolitans.
Starting pitching for the Mets has been their bread and butter the past few weeks and really the only factor that has reeled them in competing against other ball clubs. Redding on Monday threw decently, Fernando Nieve has been nothing less then outstanding in his efforts, Santana is Santana, and even Livan Hernandez who gave up the only loss, pitched fairly well.
Mets offense saw improvement this series, more evidently in their 11-0 thrashing against the Cardinals.
What I found to be most hopeful sign, was the bullpen who didn't lose any games for the Mets, and appeared solid against the St. Louis Cardinals.
These victories against a powerful team like the Cardinals can raise the confidence of this wacked and injured team, who never made excuses and never gave up. That sounds a bit corny but otherwise true; the effort of this ball club has always been there, persistent through thin and thick.
Mets beat the Cardinals, won the series and put themselves in great shape heading into the Subway Series.
The Mets are now only a half game behind the Phillies for the NL East lead and could take it with a win against the Yankees.
Round 2 of the Subway Series is on tonight at 7 p.m. at Citi Field, rendering a Sabathia and Pelfrey pitching

Arnold Schwarzenegger, in full Arnold Alois Schwarzenegger, (born July 30, 1947, Thal, near Graz, Austria), Austrian-born American bodybuilder, film actor, and politician who rose to fame through roles in blockbuster action movies and later served as governor of California (2003–11).
Schwarzenegger was known as the Styrian Oak, or Austrian Oak, in the bodybuilding world, where he dwarfed his competition. He won his first amateur Mr. Universe title in 1967. After moving to California in 1968 to train and compete in bigger events in the United States, he won four more Mr. Universe titles and then the professional Mr. Olympia title six years in a row (1970–75) before retiring. He surprised the bodybuilding world by returning to competition one more time to claim the Mr. Universe title in 1980. Bodybuilding was the subject of several of his books, including the autobiographical Arnold: The Education of a Bodybuilder (1977; cowritten with Douglas Kent Hall) and The New Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding (1998; cowritten with Bill Dobbins).
Meanwhile, Schwarzenegger pursued his childhood dream of acting in movies. In his first film, Hercules in New York (1970), Schwarzenegger played the lead, but another actor was used to dub his dialog. Schwarzenegger's native charm and wit finally came through in the acclaimed documentary Pumping Iron (1977), which led to his starring role in Conan the Barbarian (1982). He became an international star with The Terminator (1984) and appeared in two of its sequels (1991, 2003). His other films include Predator (1987), Kindergarten Cop (1990), Total Recall (1990), True Lies (1994), and The 6th Day (2000).
Schwarzenegger became a U.S. citizen in 1983 and married reporter Maria Shriver in 1986. During the 1990s he became increasingly active in the Republican Party at both the state and national levels, and in 2003 he was elected governor of California in a recall election. In his initial years in office, Schwarzenegger pushed for a number of restrictive measures that proved unpopular, especially with organized labour. Nevertheless, he was reelected in 2006. He earned key legislative victories on issues relating to the environment, including a landmark act to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions in California, and successfully advocated for ballot propositions to reform the state's redistricting process and political-primary format.
At the same time, his governorship was encumbered by the state's enormous budget deficit, which ballooned to $26 billion in 2009. Despite a battery of service reductions and salary cuts enacted to stem the fiscal crisis, the state's economy continued to struggle, and Schwarzenegger suffered from consistently low approval ratings. Because of term limits, he did not run for reelection in 2010. In May 2011 Schwarzenegger and Shriver announced that they were separating; a few days later it was revealed that he had fathered a child with a woman who had worked in the household staff. Shriver subsequently filed for divorce.
Although Schwarzenegger had put his movie career on hiatus to devote attention to politics, in 2010 he made a cameo in The Expendables, an action film that brought together several aging stars of the genre. He also appeared in the movie's 2012 and 2014 sequels. The Last Stand (2013) marked his first leading role in 10 years. He later starred with Sylvester Stallone in the action thriller Escape Plan (2013), took top billing in the action drama Sabotage (2014), and reprised his Terminator role in Terminator Genisys (2015).
In July 2011 a museum dedicated to Schwarzenegger's life opened in his childhood home in Thal, Austria. The following year he published the memoir Total Recall: My Unbelievably True Life Story (cowritten with Peter Petre).

Our Mission
The Center for Research on Culture, Education, and Development (CRCDE) at New York University is a research center and training site dedicated to the study of developmental processes, context, and culture in children and families from diverse cultural and economic backgrounds. The Center was founded in 2002 with support from the National Science Foundation, and continues to receive funding from various sources (mainly NSF) for continued research on children's developmental transitions in cultural context. The activities of the Center are organized around two large, complementary projects: studies on early childhood (from infancy through age 6 years) and studies on middle childhood and adolescence (from middle school through high school). These two projects are directed by leading scholars in developmental and community psychology, who provide expertise across contexts, developmental stages, and research methodologies. Dozens of undergraduate, graduate, and postdoctoral students have participted in the work of the CRCDE and have gone on to pursue further graduate training and recognized careers in psychology and related fields. Center members have published highly acclaimed work on infant and pre-schoolers' learning, language, cognitive development, social competence, and emotion and self regulation; children and adolescents' school performance, academic achievement, peer relations, and concepts of self; the roles of families, schools, peers, media, workplace, social policies, and culture on the developmental trajectories of young children and youth. This research and related outreach efforts are conducted in continued collaboration and partnerships with hospitals, school systems, and community agencies throughout New York City and beyond.
Scientific Mission
To accomplish this mission we seek to examine:
- trajectories of children's social, emotional, and cognitive development, particularly as children undergo major developmental and social transitions, such as the onset of language and literacy, starting of school, and entry into middle- and high-school
- children's experiences in home and school settings, and intersections among different experiences in the two settings
- the ways in which home and school settings jointly and interactively influence children's social, emotional, and cognitive development
For each aim, we explore ethnic and gender differences in children's developmental trajectories, home and school experiences, and the intersections between these, with a focus on the ways in which beliefs and practices within cultural communities shape these processes.
Educational Mission
The educational mission of the Center is to transmit research findings, through training and dissemination, to three communities:
- A new generation of scholars from diverse backgrounds who are engaged in research on culture and its role in child learning, engagement, and performance.
- The broader research community.
- Policy makers and practitioners in education (including school administrators and teachers).

Michael Johnson Outruns Competition for Mr. TSU
Nashville, Tenn. – Earlier this month, hundreds of Tennessee State students assembled in the amphitheater to find out which one of those among them had been selected to TSU's Student Government Association.
Dr. Samuels read off the results of the various appointments before reaching the winner of Mr. TSU. He let the suspense build before ultimately delivering the news that the TSU track team's very own Michael Johnson had won.
"I was really nervous," Johnson said about the moments that led up to his election. "After I heard my name I let out a sigh of relief, but then it was straight to practice."
Johnson has been a main contributor to the Flying Tigers' success the past three seasons and winning Mr. TSU was yet another milestone on his impressive collegiate career.
"My main goal as a freshman was to make the podium at the OVC Championship, and I did that [in the 4x400 meter]. As a sophomore, I wanted to get an internship and I did that by getting a job at the Metropolitan Police Department. I got another internship as a junior… just looking back on everything, I am truly grateful to be in this position," Johnson said.
Johnson accomplished another goal in being named Mr. TSU, but it is a title that requires a lot of responsibility in addition to his duties on the track and, especially, in the classroom.
However, it is designation that Johnson felt strongly about.
"I want to change the male image on campus," Johnson said. "A lot of people think that a male at TSU is not capable of being involved in community and campus activities, but I wanted to change that misconception. If I can be an athlete and keep my grades up, you can do it too."
Johnson makes juggling so many balls sound easy, but even he will admit that it takes careful planning and coordination from those around him.
"I believe in structure and communication. The people on student government have helped me out a lot and my teammates on the track team have been supportive throughout," Johnson said.
Johnson has also been supporting the rest of the Flying Tigers this year, notching 13 top-five finishes including three titles in this month's Boston-Moon Relays. Johnson won the 400-meter in front of the home fans with a season-best time of 48.95 seconds.
Even with all of his recent accolades, Johnson is staying focused on the task at hand.
"I have accomplished almost all of my goals here at TSU," Johnson said. "One of the only goals that remain is an OVC Championship and that has always been my top priority."
Tennessee State will compete at this year's Ohio Valley Conference Indoor Championships starting on Friday at Eastern Illinois.

Anyone been to Aruba or local knowledge please.
I am looking forward to a one week trip to Aruba in late January. Staying at a small hotel near the Fishermans Huts. I keep reading about off shore winds in the Huts area and am a little worried. There are a lot of kite schools in the area so there must be some kiting going on. Boca Grand has onshore winds and we are renting a car. I would prefer to spend most of my time at the Huts area because my partner does not kite. I like the idea of walking to the spot and kiting just in front of the hotel. I have been kiting for 2 years and can go up wind well. Will I have a problem at the huts? I hear there are rescue boats in case kiters have a problem getting back.
Thanks all, Pec

This question already has an answer here:
I'm another user who dislikes the default screen-saver of Oneric.
I installed XScreenSaver, but when I want to lock the screen, it doesn't work using CTRL+ALT+L , or using the option on the user menu.
How can I get the locking behavior to work properly?

On the way to recruiting The Frost Beaks, they met many helpful friends like Moss, Cleve, and Twilla. These owls helped the guardians of the Great Ga'hoole Tree make it through some tough times. Moss helped the group recruit The Frost Beaks. Cleve was a member of the health division of The Burning. Twilla helped Gylfie get out of a tough spot by tricking the pirates that snatched her.
This was a very interesting and adventuresome book with outcomes you won't expect. I have always loved books about animals. If you ask me, I must say that this is one of the best books I have ever read. This book was a "page turner". I think this book taught me that there is more than one way to look at animals. It makes you look at them as if they can care for themselves, like humans can. This book gave the owls human qualities, which made it even more interesting.
I recommend this book to boys and girls who are 10 or older because there is violence and a bit of bloodshed. This book is full of adventure and excitement for anyone who reads it. I enjoyed reading this book so much and I hope you do too.
