of miles of dirt roads, just about a mile from my house.
Riding my 530, on the same desert single track, and mountain single track, I was alot less fatigued on the 300.
Was I faster? Hard to tell. The four stroke does make you lazy, seems like you our going slower. Need to be
a little more on your game with the two stroke. I do miss my 530 for longer more slab oriented D/S rides.
You really need to have about 15 bikes to cover all aspects of riding.
You can't play golf with one club.
Thats my answer to my wife when she asks how many more dirt bikes i need.
We ride very different terrain,you desert,me,well we got the 3 R's up here in the Northeast,Rocks,Roots,Ruts,sprinkled with mud and slimie rocks.
But still,with a sproket swap,and a couple clicks on the dampner,there isn't much the 300 can't do.
I did a KTM demo last year with a good friend.The whole SX,and XC line up on a MX track for the day.Good time.
I really wanted to ride the 350XC,just to see if it would make a good enduro bike.
I have to say,i hated it,2 laps couldn't wait to get off it.Now of course thats just me.A friend with me,[AA]rode it and loved it!In the 350's defence,he pushs alot harder then me,so i would assume the harder you push it the better the bike would be.
Long story short,,,the 300XC,didnt care if you lugged it,or spanked it.It was creamy everywhere,just left it in thrid and throddle modulated.Even with factory settings it didn't pop,fart,lag or even get hot.Huge difference in bikes,,,for me.Everyones different.
Now,i know its not a KTM or even a 300,,,,but this is how you ride a 2 stroke.

"When I found the old popcorn maker stashed away in a back closet of our FOB (Forward Operating Base), I couldn't imagine it would ever work. After some parts and TLC, I got it running again. The next step was figuring out how to get the troops working for me some popcorn to eat! I called several companies, tried Amazon, etc. Nobody was able to ship a large bag of popcorn, salt, and oil to an APO address. Then I tried Nationwide Candy, and Jason was immediately able to put together my order and get it shipped out to me. Nationwide Candy and Jason have no idea how happy they have made my 200 troops to have a little taste of home out here in Afghanistan. It's the little things from back home that keep us going, and Nationwide Candy had a big part in that. THANK YOU!"by Mitchell H. on 10/16/2014

I don't understand how one could so quickly switch teams.
Let the past stay past
In 2010, Brian McClung, a former Gov. Tim Pawlenty staffer, was leading Minnesota Forward, a group that spent $1.6 million largely to make sure that Dayton was not elected governor. And Chris Tiedeman was chair of Minnesota's Future, which spent millions with the same aim. But now, McClung and Tiedeman are sending out releases on behalf of public relations clients offering Dayton some support for his budget. McClung, on behalf of three metro area chambers of commerce, shared his clients' praise for Dayton's focus on transit investment. And Tiedeman, on behalf of AARP, the SEIU health care union and the Long Term Care Imperative, sent out some praise for Dayton making senior care a "priority." Asked about the switch both seemed to recognize the irony of the situation — and continued to pitch their clients' stories.

ADSL light blinking and no connection to Internet
Hi team.
Last night I connected to the internet using the Wizard setup and followed the instructions to update the firm ware. After the firmware was installed I lost connection and no matter what I try I cannot get a solid green light (flashes) on the ADSL connection. I can remove the phone line etc and this doesn't make any difference. Netgear Techs were supposed to send me a file to restore the original firmware but I haven't seen this yet. I have confirmed with TPG that I'm getting comms from them (Using old modem now) so it's not the ISP.
Please help me
Model: DGND3700
Re: ADSL light blinking and no connection to Internet
HARD RESET the router after flashing the firmware
see router reset on my sig below
Re: ADSL light blinking and no connection to Internet
Re: ADSL light blinking and no connection to Internet
see router reset on my sig below and there router upgrade tab. read it
Re: ADSL light blinking and no connection to Internet
Flashing the firmware is another term for upgrading the firmware. What jmizoguchi is suggesting is that after the download you do hard reset. This is done by inserting a paper clip or similar into the red ringed hole for at least 7 seconds on the large flat surface with Netgear labels. This returns unit to factory setup so you will need to then reset to work with your ISP. See page 156 of manual which is downloadable from Netgear DGND3700 support site.
Re: ADSL light blinking and no connection to Internet
With the flashing your software, there should be an option under maintenance then upgrade. If you have the file which should be *.*.*.17 , it should be able to added by using the browse option and then upload[button] (do note to make sure your on a wired connection while you do this). After a few moment the lights should settle down and then you can do the reset with the paper clip, which just makes sure the setting are where they should be (clean as if .17 was installed when you opened the box).
Just when you've done the reset ,log in and check the settings. Earlier on I know auto setup was not always putting the correct information in for the connection , so if you have a problem after reset make sure your modem settings are proper.
Hopefully your isp tech support should be able to help you fill in the fields if auto setup doesn't.
Re: ADSL light blinking and no connection to Internet
OK everyone, thanks for your support.
I have now successfully connect to the net and this is the only process that worked.
Download the old firmware version: V22.214.171.124 and I had an immediate hook up to the internet provider. No rebooting required, so I would recommend to all in Australia that needs to connect to TPG to NOT UPDATE YOUR FIRMWARE TO THE LATER VERSION WHEN INSTALLING THE MODEM / ROUTER.
Otherwise all is good and I'll sleep well tonight !!
Re: ADSL light blinking and no connection to Internet
Can't sleep till you tell an entire continent what was missing. Was there something specific to your isp that was removed in the last 2 firmware's.
If it was a simple enough fix you should mark down your settings in v12 and see if they are all available in v17 or later than v12. be my luck your one of those "annex" people since I think something like that got removed.
Your going to want to pass that along to the techs if its a new issue for them to work on. Like Scubbie said in another post (She can irk later if I miss quoted) saying "v17 should be more a consistent[connections] and secure firmware" so you should move off it as soon as the problem can be detailed.
Please and thank you
Re: ADSL light blinking and no connection to Internet
I have exactly the same problem with my N600. I followed the recommended update to 188.8.131.52NA from .12. When the update completed, the router cycled. When it came back up, the DSL light was flashing rapidly and the internet LED didn't light at all.
I verified that the login and password on the Basic Settings page were correct and even checked with Century Link, my ISP, to make sure they were right. I also checked the phone cable and jack worked with a landline substituted for the 3700.
I spent a good 2 hours on the phone between Century Link and Netgear working on the issue with no success. Century Link verified that there did seem to be a line issue, but that it should only impact performance, not connectivity (appt. to fix scheduled for tomorrow).
Next steps included trying out the router with a new cable and a new jack. No success there, as well, even though a landline tested fine for both incoming and outgoing calls.
Finally, I downloaded a new copy of the .17 file and the .12 file. I reflashed the firmware with .17, disconnected everything for 10 minutes, and retried with no success. I, then re-installed .12. This, at least, got the DSL light to go solid green, but the internet light is now showing red. I re-verified my username and password with Century Link, but still no success.
Any suggestions? I'm about ready to retire the 3700 at this point.
Re: ADSL light blinking and no connection to Internet
Haven't tried myself to see if it fit but if you have a test plug outside your house and an extension cord, you could plug the modem in there. The bad thing there is if it works , your liable. Age shouldn't be a factor too much if you have a newish box outside with working voice and don't re-screw in house too much but how old the wire inside. Most wire will have labeling like cat3 or greater, that's what was originally run into my home even though I replaced with plenum cat 6 (overkill but I didn't have cat 3 or 5 to run) on a shorter run to box (line was dangling out from the siding).
**Either way** when the tech comes tomorrow they'll have a device to plug in when your modem connects and do their own official tests on the line and do the "you should use our modem" jig if they can't get your dgnd3700 to connect with you.

Valve's critically acclaimed Portal series is continuing to prove its potential in other entertainment mediums, having already inspired a comic book and, now, a live-action film.
The seven-minute film, titled Portal: No Escape, was written and directed by Los Angeles-based filmmaker Dan Trachtenberg, who also hosts the Totally Rad Show, a daily pop culture video podcast distributed by Revision3.
Trachtenberg first debuted the film during last month's Comic-Con on the Totally Rad Show panel and has since released it on YouTube. The film stars Danielle Rayne (General Hospital, Law and Order) in the role of Chell, a prisoner in a grim-looking facility who discovers a portal gun and uses it to attempt an escape.
According to Trachtenberg, the film took one and a half years to make, with production beginning prior to Portal 2 being announced.
In the past, Trachtenberg has directed commercials for Lexus, Nike, and Coca Cola.

Envelope Sizes
Choose the Right Envelope Size and Style for Your Material
The right envelope size would depend on what you're going to put in it. For example, invitation cards with a dimension of 4" x 6" would need an A6 (4.75" x 6.5") envelope. Notice how the right envelope is always a little bigger than the content? This is to allow expansion in case its content is thick. This extra space also makes it easier for the recipient to open and pick the card out of the envelope.
Here are the different standard envelope sizes and styles commonly used with some of their applications:
•3.5" x 6" up to 6" x 12" Legal Size — Is also known as business and correspondence size. It is usually elongated in shape. It is mostly used for letter-folded inserts such as legal transaction papers, letterheads, and corporate letters.
•4.75" x 6.5" up to 12" x 15.5" Booklet and Catalog Size—Constructed with a side or center seam, booklet- and catalog-sized envelopes are especially designed for heavy weight materials such as annual reports, catalogs, booklets, and other promotional tools.
•2.125" x 3.625" up to 5.5" 7.75" Baronial Envelope Size—Is a size normally used for invitation cards, greeting cards, and other formal specialty cards and inserts. It is mainly recognizable through its deep pointed flap.
•5" x 5" up to 9.5" x 9.5" Square Size— Commonly used to attract attention because of its unusual shape for an envelope. It is also commonly used for invitations, greeting cards, and specialty cards as well.
•4.375" x 5.75" up to 6" x 9.5" Announcement Size—Also known as the A-style envelopes, these are the popular envelope sizes and styles. These are commonly used for greeting cards, invitations, photographs, small booklets, and a lot more.
The function of the envelopes with respect to their sizes is not limited to the applications listed above. The key is to remember that there should be an extra space allowance inside the envelope for possible inserts and for easy pick-out. Choose the right size for your envelope printing needs. A matching envelope and insert makes a more presentable material.

In Edinburgh, Radio Forth has the school run sewn up. Compulsive listening are items such as 'Wotsit', a word-guessing game, and 'Kid in the Car', when a primary-age child is selected to tell a joke. Today's was 'What do you call a Scotsman who's nearly home?' (Hamish, of course.)
No joke, however, was a Sainsbury's Easter egg ad that came hot on its heels. The gist of it was: 'Shop early from our range, so there's loads of time to hide them for your great Easter egg-hunt.'
Ahem. Excuse me. Hide them? As one of our kids pointed out, it's the Easter Bunny that conceals the eggs… so what's this all this about? And who's next for unmasking… the Tooth Fairy? Santa? Those bears that live beneath the pavement?
I guess it's called an overlap of audiences, with a bit of myopic planning thrown in – surely better to have kept the chocolate powder dry until after the 9 a.m. watershed?

Joan of Arc's visions and courage had inspired the Dauphin aspiring to the French throne to resist the English invaders with new strength. However, when she was finally captured by those sympathetic to the English claimant to the throne, Henry VI, Joan of Arc was interrogated and ultimately condemned as a heretic and burned. She remained an important figure in French national consciousness over subsequent centuries. Pope Benedict XV canonised her on 16 May, 1920.

Design To Enlighten Or To Drive You Crazy? Nendo's MD.net Clinic
If you aren't crazy when you enter this MD.net Clinic, you will be after you see the carpeting! Far be it from me to express such a concern about the creation of a world class designer, but if this is the way psychiatry is headed, we crazies should head the other way.
One might say that Japanese designer and architect, Nendo, was just following the wishes of his client, in this case a mental health clinic, one that handles the usual neurotics, depressives, obsessives, etcetera... plus counsels those just coming out of job 'retirement' to re-enter the work force, and does corporate consulting.
"Rather than getting patients back to a 'zero,' the neutral starting place of the traditional model for mental health care," Nendo writes, "the clinic aims to provide patients with something extra: a further richness in their daily lives that they did not have before starting treatment."
Nendo translates this richness into his design of the clinic's interior with doors that do not open...
walls that do open...
doors that are windows...
doors that turn the lights on and off...
and passages that are hidden by bookcases.
These non-traditional (read weird) design elements will certainly give pause to anyone visiting the mental health facility, eliciting expressions of surprise, joy, bewilderment... Maybe some will even get the idea that the design is intended to encourage examination of their existing notions of the order of things.
MD.net Clinic is like a fun house, but maybe some patients will think they really are insane when they go there. I think the carpet's the trigger here though; if they're not already crazy, the carpet is sure to make them go totally haywire!

More than 90 per cent of the western Central African Republic's Muslim inhabitants have fled violence in the past few months. Armed international forces are protecting the last Muslims in a few enclaves under very precarious conditions.
In front of the Catholic Church in Carnot, in the western part of the Central African Republic (CAR), Muslims are kneeling to pray. Cameroonian soldiers from the African Union forces guard the gate.
Precarious conditions
Inside the Church compound, nearly one thousand people of different ethnicities, but all Muslim, are crammed in very precarious conditions on an area the size of half a football field.
These internally displaced persons (IDPs) were brought here by the MISCA (French acronym for the African mission supporting Central African Republic) troops in order to ensure their protection.
Exposed to atrocious reprisals
The rest of the city is controlled by anti-balakas, self-defence militias mainly composed of Christians that took Carnot early February, following the resignation of the President Michel Djotodia on January 10th. Djotodia had gained power in March 2013 by a coup led by the Seleka, an alliance of rebel Muslim groups.
The vast majority of the Muslim communities left following the Seleka retreat because they became exposed to atrocious reprisals, regardless of whether they were migrant workers, nomadic pastoralists or Central African citizens. The exact toll is difficult to establish but it is believed there were several thousand victims.
'They mutilated the corpses'
Stepsisters S. and Z. are both 20 years old.
"On 5 February, the anti-balakas attacked Guen, our village. There were a hundred of us grouped in a big house. They separated the men and boys, 45 people in total including our husbands, and executed them in front of us," Z. said.
"Then they mutilated the corpses," she said, pointing to her ears.
S. continues: "The Cameroonian soldiers brought us to Carnot Church. It's been really harsh here. My baby died from an infection. He was one month old."
Moving away from the enclave risks grave danger, as D. found out ten days ago. He learned that a 9-carat stone was discovered at the diamond mine that he normally manages.
"I went to collect my share. Anti-balakas attacked me with machetes less than 500 meters from the church," he said. D. was treated by MSF and now hopes to find a way to join his family in Cameroon.
Medical facilities not spared by the violence
MSF has been supporting Carnot Hospital since 2010. Today it is the only place where it is possible for Christians and Muslims to be staying together. However the killing of 18 people inside a MSF hospital in Boguila on 26 April remains a tragic reminder that medical facilities are not being spared by the violence.
Overpopulation has also become a public health issue within the walls of the church. Half of the displaced are children under 15 years. The rainy season has started and diseases like malaria and diarrhoea are rampant.
A daily challenge to provide basic sanitary care
"We provide medical care, food and drinking water and we built latrines but it is a daily challenge to maintain minimum sanitary conditions in such a situation," said Fabio Biolchini, head of MSF activities on site. "Another solution must be found quickly."
IDPs settle on mats inside the church. On Sunday, they vacate the space for the mass.
"We hear insults and threats every time," said a community representative who has resigned himself to leaving soon for Cameroon, where more than 100,000 refugees have already fled.
"The hate is still too strong for reconciliation. Our children are sick and our women are afraid. Ramadan is approaching and nobody wants to celebrate in such conditions. Our only option now is to go and wait for peace."

Dalit stabbed; in detention for marrying upper-caste girl (rediff.com)
"A Dalit youth, who had married an upper-caste girl against the wishes of her family, was stabbed, and his wife abducted by his in-laws in Motihari town in Bihar's east Champaran district nearly 10 days ago, is seeking justice from the hospital bed as he has been put under police detention.
"'I was put in police detention and handcuffed in the hospital where I am under treatment after being stabbed 20 times by my in-laws, who also abducted my wife, in an old case filed by my father in law, which is baseless. It appears to me that police is more keen to torture me instead to recover my wife and arrest the named accused in my complaint,' Krishna Prasad Ram, the 24-year-old victim said.
"Ram told rediff.com over telephone from his hospital bed that the police is behaving as if he is the real criminal, but the fact is that at the time of his court marriage a year ago, he and his wife Khushboo Singh were adults, and India's constitution allows an adult to marry or choose his life partner.
"'Nine police personnel have been deputed for my security and surveillance round the clock, despite the fact that they handcuffed me during treatment at the Sadar Hospital,' he said.
"Ram was 23 and Khushboo was 21 when they got married. 'Even if we were forced to to elope after her family opposed, it was not a crime as both of us were adults and consenting adults,' Ram said."

The beautiful Central African country of Uganda is one of the continent's most surprising. It is best known for its population of mountain gorillas in the Bwindi Impenetrable National Park but has many other wildlife experiences to offer. You'll visit the Kibale Forest Reserve to track chimpanzees in the wild, Queen Elizabeth National Park and at Bwindi Impenetrable National Park bed down at the luxurious Sanctuary Gorilla Forest Camp which is your base for gorilla tracking. Inquisitive primates even pay the lodge a visit on occasion.
Day 1: Arrive Entebbe
Arrive into Entebbe where you are transferred privately to your hotel.
The Boma (Standard Room)
Day 2: Entebbe - Kibale National Park
This morning depart Entebbe for the full day drive (6 hours) to Kibale National Park in the west of the country. Set against the backdrop of Lake Kyaninga and the mystical Rwenzori Mountains, Kibale has one of the highest diversity and concentration of primates in Africa. It is home to a large number of endangered chimpanzees, as well as the red colobus monkey and the rare L'Hoest's monkey (B,L,D).
Kyaninga Lodge (Cottage)
Day 3: Kibale National Park
Kibale is one of Africa's premier destinations for chimpanzee tracking. Today you head out with your tracker in search of these fascinating creatures. Other activities include walks to the crater and swamp. The forest is also home to over 300 species of birds, with six endemic to the park, and other mammals including leopard, rare forest elephants, buffalo, giant forest hog and half a dozen species of antelope (B,L,D).
Kyaninga Lodge (Cottage)
Day 4: Kibale - Queen Elizabeth National Park
Drive south (4 hours) to Queen Elizabeth National Park and your camp. Ishasha Wilderness Camp is located in a remote and exclusive part of the park. The game density here is high and it supports some of the largest herds of elephant in Uganda. There is prolific plains game and a good number of predators (B,L,D).
Ishasha Wilderness Camp (Tent)
Day 5: Queen Elizabeth National Park
At Ishasha you will enjoy day and night drives through the park. Resident wildlife here includes Spotted hyena, leopard, hippo, elephant, buffalo, waterbuck and tree climbing lion (B,L,D).
Ishasha Wilderness Camp (Tent)
Day 6: Queen Elizabeth - Bwindi
This morning continue south to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. Arrive at your luxury camp, located in the rainforest on a mountainside in the park (B,L,D).
Sanctuary Gorilla Forest Camp (Tent)
Days 7-8: Bwindi Impenetrable National Park
Bwindi is home to many primates including colobus monkeys and chimpanzees, but is most notable for its population of the critically-endangered mountain gorilla. Spend the next two days trekking through the forest to locate one of the four habituated gorilla families. The walk is demanding, up and down steep forested slopes and through thick jungle vegetation, but sighting the gorillas in the undergrowth is an inspiring moment! Spend time observing the family as they interact with each other, play and forage (B,L,D).
Sanctuary Gorilla Forest Camp (Tent)
Day 9 Bwindi - Entebbe
Transfer to the airstrip for your flight to Entebbe and onward connections (B,L).

New lawsuit targets DVD copying

Studios race to choke DVD copyingFebruary 4, 2002
The suit is the fourth set of claims to be filed against 321 Studios, which markets the most popular DVD copying software commercially available. Previously, the company has been sued in both California and in New York by coalitions of Hollywood studios and by Macrovision, another copy-protection technology company.
The DVD CCA recently dropped lawsuits against individuals who posted code used in the process of copying DVDs online. After that decision, the group said it would use other tactics to defend its intellectual property.
"In taking this legal action, DVD CCA is turning its focus toward those who produce and broadly distribute products in the marketplace that facilitate the widespread infringement of the copyrights on motion pictures that CSS was designed to protect," said Steven Reiss, an attorney for the trade organization, in a statement. "DVD CCA believes that halting the mass marketing of these illegal products is the most important and effective step toward protecting its property from theft and misuse in a changing marketplace."
The battle over DVD copying technology has been on a roller-coaster ride over the past four years, since a Norwegian teenager posted code online that helped computers break through the Content Scrambling System (CSS) copy protection technology included on most commercial DVDs.
That code, called DeCSS, quickly spread on the Net, and Hollywood studios sued Web publishers to keep it offline. The DVD CCA, which holds patent rights in the CSS technology, also sued Web site operators for violation of trade secrets.
The Hollywood studios were successful in their federal copyright case, winning a judgment against publisher Eric Corley, in which Corley was banned from posting or even linking to the DeCSS code.
The DVD CCA was less successful, ultimately losing critical rulings on jurisdiction, and drawing the skepticism of the California Supreme Court as to whether their trade secret claim was valid. The group dropped their case before that issue came to a final test.
In its claims, filed in New York federal court, the DVD CCA contends that 321 Studios' copying software also copies the CSS technology without permission, in violation of patent rights.
A 321 executive said the company had not been informed of the lawsuit and could not immediately comment. The company separately filed a response to Macrovision's lawsuit on Friday, arguing that the parallel patent infringement claims in that suit were invalid.
The Macrovision lawsuit is "completely baseless and frivolous on the merits," said 321 Studios President Robert Moore. "We will continue to fight...We've got a responsibility to our customer base and the fair use cause to continue."

When Real Housewives of Beverly Hills stars Kyle Richards and my spirit animal Lisa Vanderpump said they were going to star in a Lady Gaga video, I assumed that the buckets of Botox in their faces had finally wormed into their brains. Surely, surely it was some kind of tacky joke…right?
Wrong, darlings. It seems that LG made good on her threat to include the reality stars in her latest vid for G.U.Y.. In addition to Kyle and Lisa, Yolanda Foster, Kim Richards and Carlton Gebbia all made appearances in the ultra odd 12-minute vid, but surprise surprise, Brandi Glanville and Joyce Giraud didn't make the cut. Could Mother Monster be Team Lisa?
I would try to explain what role the Wives had in the vid or the plot in general but since we're talking about Lady Gaga, darlings, you know it's quite impossible to summarize one of her artistic "visions." Instead, let us all just feast our eyes on the festival of weirdness that is her G.U.Y video…
Do you think Gaga has jumped the shark in terms of her "artistic" endeavors? Or do you totes get the meaning behind her video?

The infamous Loch Ness monster often appears, according to legend, accompanied by Earth tremors and swirling bubbles from the Scottish lake of the same name.
However, at least one researcher believes the shaking ground and bubbles aren't signs of a monster but rather an active fault underlying Loch Ness and other nearby lakes.
Italian geologist Luigi Piccardi credits the Great Glen fault system for reported sightings of the legendary beast, Scientific American reports.

Zach Sanders to Receive National Dave Schultz High School Excellence Award
Courtesy: University of Minnesota
Release: 05/27/2007
University of Minnesota incoming freshman wrestler Zachary Sanders will be recognized as the national winner of the Dave Schultz High School Excellence Award at the 2007 National Wrestling Hall of Fame Honors Weekend Banquet and Induction Ceremony this Saturday, June 2, in Stillwater, Okla.
A native of Wabasha, Minn., Sanders was a five-time state champion and compiled a career record of 223-5 at Wabasha-Kellogg High School. He won the Class A 119-pound title in 2007, the 112-pound title as a junior and sophomore, and the 103-pound title as a freshman and eighth grader. Sanders ended his high school career with three undefeated seasons. He had a 3.58 GPA in high school.
In addition, he was a Cadet and Junior freestyle national champion, the 2007 National High School Coaches Association (NHSCA) Senior champion at 119 pounds and was an Asics First Team All-American in 2006.
Earlier this year, Sanders was also named Mr. Minnesota of Wrestling by the Minnesota Wrestling Coaches Association.
The Dave Schultz High School Excellence Award is presented annually to a high school senior who has demonstrated outstanding wrestling success, scholastic achievement, character, citizenship and community service. The awards program is named in honor of the late Dave Schultz, an Olympic and world champion, who set an example for excellence both on and off the mat.
The selection for the national winner of the Dave Schultz award begins with local winners from each of the 48 states that sponsor high school wrestling championships. Five regional winners are then selected from the 48 state representatives before the national winner is determined.
Sanders and fellow incoming freshman Sonny Yohn were both selected as their respective state?s and regional winners. Yohn, a native of Alamosa, Colo., is a three-time Colorado state champion at 189 pounds and finished his career with a 153-15 overall record. He was the 2006 NHSCA Junior National Champion and finished second at the USAW Junior freestyle nationals. Yohn finished second at the 2007 NHSCA Senior nationals at 215 pounds. He had a 3.8 GPA in high school.
Sanders is the third Minnesota recruit to earn the national Dave Schultz award since its inception in 1996. Current Gopher C.P. Schlatter, a 2007 All-American and two-time Academic All-American, earned the award in 2003, and former two-time All-American Garrett Lowney was the recipient in 1998.

'White House Down's' Tatum and Foxx or 'The Heat's' Bullock and McCarthy: Who has the best chemistry?
Whether you watched "The Heat" or "White House Down" this weekend (or were one of the many people who went to watch "Monsters University"), the movie line-up for the weekend of June 29 was all about the buddy romances.
Obviously audiences love Sully and Mike or Pixar would have never made a "Monsters, Inc." sequel, but it's the new pairings that we're the most intrigued by. The Paul Feig comedy "The Heat" played up the chemistry of Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy, and even detractors of the film found the two actresses to be high points. Then there's Channing Tatum and Jamie Foxx in Roland Emmerich's "White House Down," who have been showcasing their hilarious bromance the entire time while they were promoting the flick.
Though it hasn't yet been revealed which of these two movies will come out on top for the weekend's box office, audiences have already had the chance to sample the two pairs' chemistry. Vote below to know which of the two you preferred best.

NICEVILLE — A Huntsville, Ala.-based aerospace company has opened a local office to take advantage of opportunities presented by Eglin Air Force Base.
Cummings Aerospace was formed in November of 2009 as a defense contractor specializing in missiles. Cummings employs about 45 people in Huntsville, Orlando and Niceville.
"Our focus now includes many Air Force programs, NASA programs, the commercial sector as well as the continued focus on missile defense," said Sheila Cummings, the company's founder and owner. "The test activities that happen at Eglin are very synergistic with a lot of our core competencies."
The Niceville office opened in April and has one employee, technical director Jeff McMullan.
"I'm very optimistic about the potential," Cummings said. "I think this time next year we'll have on the order of 12 to 15 employees in that region. You have to start with one and make our presence known and continue to foster relationships with government representatives and industry partners, and hope that some of the procurement opportunities we're pursuing will come to fruition."
McMullan retired from Eglin as a lieutenant colonel in February and knows many local defense contractors.
McMullan said Cummings Aerospace is looking for jobs in product development, studies and small prototype development and simulation work. In addition to subcontracting with prime contractors, he said the firm wants to expand into small primary contract work.
"Our main goal is to branch out into the Air Force side because we have a strong foundation with the Army and missile defense," McMullan said. "The prospects are looking very good, considering what budget environment we're in right now. I've been very pleased with the reception we've gotten so far."

CashTaxi.com charges a fee ranging from $22.98 to $27.98 for each $100 you borrow.
As long as you repay your loan on time, you will never pay more than the loan amount and the flat fee.
Please take a moment to review the table below to see an example of what you will repay based on the amount you wish to borrow:
APR (Annual Percentage Rate) is a measure of the cost of credit which allows consumers to compare different types of loans. This assumes that all loans are taken and repaid over the course of a 365 day (1 year) period.
A typical loan term made by us is 14 days and a flat rate applies rather than accumulating interest. However, we will disclose this amount calculated as an APR for the purpose of making it easier for you to compare the cost of credit.
The APR is not always an accurate indicator when comparing the true cost of different types of loans. This is particularly the case for short term loans where the APR gets higher the shorter the period is to the repayment date. What is most important is for you to be aware of how much you will need to repay and that you can comfortably afford it.

A new Iowa bill, if passed, will prohibit text messaging and cell phone usage by those with an instruction permit or intermediate driver's license unless it is to contact law enforcement.
Iowa uses the graduated license program in which young drivers begin with an instructional permit, move onto an intermediate license, and if all goes well to a full privilege license.
"Statistically the 16-24 year age group makes up 14 percent of the population but they make up 28 percent of the serious accidents. That's from the Safety and Health Council," Shenandoah Police Chief Tim Hanson told Valley News Today.
"Add inexperienced driving to distraction of a cell phone or another person in the car and the mental aspect of driving diminishes. They don't realize the risk involved. It's a public safety issue; it's not about restricting freedom."
If the bill is passed, a graduated license holder caught text messaging or talking on a cell phone while driving will get a simple misdemeanor, punishable by a $30 fine plus a delay in receiving a full driver's license. The same violation by an instructional permit holder will bring a $30 fine plus suspension of the license.

Okay, I got it to print by clicking (in CUPS) "Start Printer." Then after
re-booting, the most recent problem disappeared. With CUPS 1.2.1 I now
appear to be back to the first problem. That is, the error message is that
the parallel port can't be found that that there will be a retry in 30
seconds. Then I can print by bringing up "Add Printer" and maybe click
on "Canon" and do nothing. Then it prints.

Recipe by DAVES_POOKY
"Add a few simple ingredients, bake, and viola! You'll have hot, tasty homemade biscuits fast!"
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

Watch video tips and tricks
10 cups
all-purpose flour
1/2 cup
baking powder
2 tablespoons
white sugar
2 teaspoons
1 1/4 cups
vegetable oil
very good I keep made all the time stored in frig. I add 10 tbsp of dry buttermilk mix to the mix so all I have to do is add water when time to make
This is an okay recipe, but real biscuits never use oil (if you're limited on your diet, you can use it but they won't be great biscuits) and use shortening instead (or butter, but that one is tricky). Also this does NOT need refrigeration for storage, UNLESS you use butter. Remember that you buy flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and shortening unrefrigerated and none of those are required to be refrigerated after opening. Why start now? Come to think of it, you don't refrigerate Bisquick either! Using powdered buttermilk is a good idea to stir in before hand, but decrease your flour by the same amount and instead of using water (since you have powdered buttermilk in it already) use milk for the liquid. Finally, a lot of people have trouble with biscuits when you "roll it out on a lightly floured surface." If you do have trouble with that, or have trouble kneading, don't bother doing either. Just mix it up well in the bowl, lightly flour the surface (I use an actual body powder puff which was, obviously, never used for body powder) put it out on the surface, gently pat it out, cut it, and use a metal spatula to carefully peel it off. This will get you by until you're a biscuit expert. It sure helped me in my early years! Overworking the dough makes them tough. Finally, the recipe says store for up to 3 months, but I've stored it for much MUCH longer without issues. That varies due to the quality of the ingredients. Some baking powder will lose it's lift, etc.
100 Ratings
To make your own buttermilk, combine 1 cup milk with 1 TBSP white vinegar, stir, let sit for 2-3 minutes. You will only need 2/3 Cup buttermilk for this recipe.
I have a few suggestions to those who are having a tough time with this recipe.
*Do not use bread flour
*Do not overknead, you want the lumps there.
*Make sure you watch your biscuits, it may finish baking before the stated time. Some ovens are more hotter than others.
*If your in a hotter climate, try refrigerating your mix until it's really cold before using it in a recipe.
*Make sure your spooning the flour into the measuring cup, you may be adding too much flour.
*You could try to use cake flour, if you don't have any cake flour make your own: before adding flour to your measuring cup, add 2 Tablespoons of cornstarch first, then add the all purpose flour to make a cup-do this for all ten cups.
Hope this helps, enjoy!
This mix a fantastic. I'm so glad I found it on this site. No more buying Biscuick for me.
Finally a recipe I can use my healthy canola oil in instead of those blocks of solid fats! 10-Q, 10-Q, 10-Q !!!
This is a great starter recipe for all kinds of yummy things. My two year old and I made blueberry pancakes using this recipe in place of Bisquck, they turned out fluffy and light. So much cheaper to make verses buying Bisquick and not hard at all.
Thanks for the recipe. I was making biscuits this morning and had no biscuit mix. Luckily I looked on this site and of course someone came through! I will use this from now on as I don't like to use prepacked stuff when homemade is so much better and this was so quick and easy. Thanks!

Neuroscience is one of the most fascinating and rapidly growing fields in science today. This interdisciplinary field unites psychology, biology, and biochemistry (as well as in some instances chemistry, computer science, mathematics, philosophy, and linguistics) in the study of nervous system function. Neuroscience research spans multiple levels of analysis and includes basic and applied research problems. Just a few of the many topics addressed include the development of drug and other therapies to help people with brain injury or disease, the investigation of neural systems responsible for consciousness, and the exploration of cellular/molecular processes that underlie memory or drug addiction. Neuroscientists are employed in diverse settings including in research at universities or for pharmaceutical companies, in medicine as neurologists, clinical neurologists, neurosurgeons, physical therapists or psychiatrists, in policy-making bodies in the government and in the criminal justice system.

Freeze warning in effect for portions of South Texas late tonight
Another cold air mass will surge into South Texas tonight. Cold temperatures, combined with gusty north wind, will create wind chills dangerous for those people or pets not protected. A hard freeze is not expected and therefore risk to unprotected pipes is minimal.
The low Tuesday morning 29 to 32 degrees, ranging from 2 to 4 hours generally along and north of a line from Encinal to Refugio to Bloomington. Wind chill values tonight through mid-morning Tuesday will dip into the low to mid 20s.
In addition to the cold air, there will be areas of drizzle across the region but should come to an end this evening, well before any surface temperatures approach the freezing level.

Glee Spoilers: Lea Michele Tweets About Jonathan Groff! What Are Rachel and Jesse Up To?
As excited as we felt to see Jonathan Groff make his return to Glee as Vocal Adrenaline coach Jesse St. James in Season 3, Episode 16: "Saturday Night Glee-ver," we have to say that Rachel's (Lea Michele) former flame didn't get nearly as much screentime as we'd been hoping for.
Sure, he made lots of great facial expressions while running around off-stage and yelling at his lead singer Wade (Alex Newell) to stop singing, but why no interaction with Rachel? The couple otherwise known as "St. Berry" has quite the tumultuous romantic history, and we don't think they've seen or spoken to each other since Rachel decided to get engaged to Finn (Cory Monteith).
Does this sound to anyone else like the makings of a very awkward reunion? Especially after everything that went down between Finn and Jesse at last year's prom.
But, with Jesse only so far confirmed to be in ONE more episode of this season, are he and Rachel even going to be speaking at all? Or will Jesse's scenes remain only with the Vocal Adrenaline crew?
Well, fear not, St. Berry fans: We have it on good authority that there will be at least one Rachel/Jesse scene in May 15's Season 3, Episode 21 Nationals competition. Lea Michele herself is spreading the news!
On April 27, Lea tweeted, "It's been such a long week! Nationals are finally over! Get to work with Groff and Whoopi today! Can't wait!"
Wait: Rachel, Jesse, and Whoopi Goldberg's Carmen Tibideaux? Sounds like a bit of a random grouping to us. What would bring a New Directions student, the Vocal Adrenaline coach, and an admissions person for NYADA together for the same scene?
Furthermore, what Carmen Tibideaux doing at the Nationals competition in Chicago anyway? After she gives Kurt (Chris Colfer) and Rachel their admissions fate, we just assumed she'd be on the first plane back to New York.
With all these rumors that Rachel chokes during her NYADA audition and doesn't make it in, we can't help but hope that Jesse is somehow lending a hand to try and convince NYADA to reconsider her acceptance. That would be a very stand-up thing of him to do.
What's even more interesting, we've read reports on Twitter that say Cory Monteith was also involved in taping some of those scenes. We're talking solo interaction between Jesse and Rachel followed by Finn suddenly stepping in. Then Rachel leaves, and the scene ends with Jesse and Finn talking.
Fans on set weren't able to make out what any of them were saying, but all their descriptions definitely piqued our interest! What do you think will be going on in that shot?

Re: Power up problems with Fusic =(
I've had several power-related problems weith the Fusic. At times, the phone will randomly power itself off. There have also been times when using the AIM application that, quite literally in the middle of my entering a message, the phone will go through the power-up process when it's already on! Just the other day, it powered itself off, and when I attempted to turn it back on, I got a message I'd never seen before -- the display showed a picture of a battery with a question mark on it and said, "battery required." Not to sound like a complete idiot, but how in the blazes could the phone power on at all if the battery wasn't there?

|Sept. 12, 2012, CRIME REPORT
|Posted: Wednesday, September 12, 2012 2:23 pm
Cookeville Police Officer Brandon Tayes arrested Jennifer Ann Perron, 29, of Milan, Tenn., Aug. 31, 2012, and charged her with child neglect. Tayes responded to call that there was an abandoned five-year-old child at the Clarion Inn. Tayes found the boy wandering around the hotel and reportedly had no idea where his mother had gone. The mother's belongings were still in the hotel room, however. While he was there, a gold Honda Civic pulled up and Perron exited the car. She reportedly smelled of alcohol. According to Tayes, Perron first said she had gone out for a soda. The story changed a couple of more times before Tayes determined that she'd left the previous night to go to a bar and didn't return until the officer was there. Perron had her son only for the weekend since the boy's father had full custody, according to the report. He picked up his son and Perron was taken to Putnam County Jail.
Cookeville Police Officer Robert King arrested Brandy Nichole Reed, 30, of Cookeville, Aug. 31, 2012, and charged her with public intoxication and introducing contraband into a penal institution. King along with Sgt. Jon Giezentanner picked Reed up at Kroger after receiving a call that there was an intoxicated female on the property. She told the officers she had been waiting for more than three hours to be picked up. The officers observed that Reed had slurred speech and was unsteady on her feet. She allegedly admitted to using suboxone (a medication used in treatment of opioid dependence.) Officers searched her at the jail and found nothing. But later a corrections officer witnessed her trying to remove something from her person near the toilet. A female corrections officer searched Reed more thoroughly and reportedly found a syringe in the woman's vagina, which brought the additional charge.
Cookeville Police Officer Anthony Nash arrested Griselda Xum, 31, of Cookeville, Aug. 31, 2012, and charged her with driving under the influence, wreckless endangerment, evading arrest, open container and driving without a license. Officer Nash was called to Jere Whitson Elementary School on reports that Xum allegedly smelled of alcohol and had an open container when she arrived to pick up her child. She left without picking up her child, which sent officers on the hunt for the van she was driving. Once spotted, Nash sought to pull her over but she kept driving and weaving on the road. She reportedly stopped at a red light then continued on when the light turned green. After getting her stopped, Nash reported that he observed an unrestrained small child walking around in the van. Officers on the scene chose not to do the sobriety tests because of a language barrier and that she had been uncooperative. Officers called the Department of Children's Services for the child in the van as well as the one left behind at the school.
Cookeville Police Sgt. Mitch Harrington arrested Daniel Carmine Delape, 26, and Sarah Sly Spurlock, 25, both of Cookeville, Aug. 31, 2012, and charged them with possession of Schedule IV and II drugs. U.S Marshal Pat Storie sought Harrington's assistance in stopping Delape who was wanted in Putnam and Overton counties for various reasons. They and Tennessee Bureau of Investigation agents surrounded Delape's car in the parking lot of Genesis Career College. Delape was there to pick up his girlfriend, Spurlock. Agents found what they believed to be methamphetamine in his car. When Spurlock came out, she was allowed to talk to Delape. A TBI agent found a hypodermic needle at their feet while they were talking. Agents then found a container on Delape allegedly containing prescription pills for which Delape had no prescription. A search of Spurlock's purse reportedly uncovered seven needles and a spoon with a white/grayish residue. Agents tested a small bottle of liquid found in her person and reportedly got a presumptive positive result for meth. Spurlock was arrested along with Delape.
Cookeville Police Officer Christopher Ferguson arrested Edward Daniel Davis, 23, Aug. 31, 2012, and charged him with driving under the influence. Officer Ferguson observed Davis speeding along Jefferson Avenue and running the red light at Jefferson and Spring Street. Once stopped, the officer approached the driver's side to find that Davis had jumped into the back seat. Davis reportedly told the officer he did that because he was scared and had been drinking. Subsequently, Davis didn't perform four sobriety tests to Ferguson's satisfaction.
Cookeville Police Officer Justin Long arrested Bennie D. Edwards, 48, of Cookeville, Sept. 3, 2012, and charged him with driving under the influence and violating the implied consent law. Officer Long arrived to a location on Stone Circle to find a truck with the log splitter it had been pulling turned upside down. Edwards refused to do the field sobriety tests but initially consented to his blood being drawn. Once at Cookeville Regional, however, Edwards reportedly changed his mind.
Cookeville Police Officer Aaron Cox arrested Tracy Carol Savage, 39, of Cookeville, Sept. 2, and charged her with driving under the influence and violation of the implied consent law. Someone stopped in the police lobby to report that a woman driving a BMW had passed out at the stoplight in front of the station. The person making the report stated that he had tried to wake the woman to prevent her from driving. But she took off. Soon after that report, dispatch received a call that Savage had stopped in the middle of Broad Street and N. Hickory Avenue. Cox reportedly found her passed out with the car running and her foot on the brake. Cox tried to get her to turn off the ignition but had trouble doing so and her foot came off the brake and it started rolling while she fell asleep with the officer yelling at her to put her foot on the brake, according to the report. The moving car dragged Cox down the street about 30 feet until he could get the car stopped. She reportedly failed her first sobriety test and stumbled around to the point Cox decided not to do more tests and arrested her.
Putnam County Sheriff's Deputy Jeremy Nash and Algood Police arrested Tyler Gavin Blaylock, 20, of Cookeville, Dustin Whiteman Atchley, 20, of Crossville, and Travis Lloyd Turner, 20 of Cookeville Sept. 2, 2012 and charged them with vandalism and theft of property. Algood Police was arresting the three on alcohol charges when a search of the car turned up several street signs. Deputies checked the locations to see that the poles were bent over or broken.
Putnam County Sheriff's Deputy Samuel Branch arrested Charles Frederick Darty, 47, of Cookeville Sept. 2, 2012, and charged him with driving under the influence. Branch went to do a bar check at CB's Bar on Gainesboro Grade when he observed Darty driving out of the parking lot. Branch reportedly recognized Darty from previous encounters and knew that Darty had a revoked license. Branch pulled Darty over and reported that he could smell alcohol. Darty didn't perform field sobriety tests to the deputy's satisfaction, according to the incident report.
Cookeville Police Officer Cary Matheney arrested Michael Jeffery Presley, 50, of Spencer, Sept. 2, 2012, and charged him with driving under the influence and possession of a controlled substance with intent to sell. Officers stopped Presley after he left Hardee's on S. Willow Avenue and they noted that Presley's speech was slurred and that his pupils were constricted but he reportedly couldn't perform field sobriety tests because of a spinal cord injury. They reportedly saw a prescription pill bottle beside his leg. Presley allowed officers to search in car. More pills were found along with hypodermic needles and a rock substance that field-tested as meth, according to the police report. Presley also has several mobile phones that contained messages allegedly arranging drug transactions.
Putnam County Sheriff's deputies and Cookeville Police officers cooperated in apprehending Jesse Luke Langford, 24, of Gainesboro, Timothy Paul Beason, 47, of Cookeville, Daniel Francis Brennan, 43, of Cookeville, Stacey Ann Patzer, 47, of Cookeville, and Johnnie Lerony Webb, 74, of Cookeville, Sept. 4, 2012 and charged them all with intent to manufacture meth. At the request of U.S. Marshal Task Force Officer Pat Storie they went to a house on Lewis Lane to find Langford who was wanted by Cookeville and Putnam and Overton counties. Langford reportedly had escaped law enforcement twice in the previous week. Officers and deputies surrounded the house yet Langford was reportedly attempting to escape again. As an officer was about to kick in the door, a man jumped head first through a front window to the lawn. An officer used his Taser on the subject, later identified as Brennan, when he didn't comply with a request to freeze. Officers and deputies went into the house looking for Langford, finding him under a bed. He, too, got the Taser when he started to move and officers couldn't see his hands. While in the house, officers and deputies found items commonly used to make meth. No one arrested reportedly claimed any knowledge of the meth lab.
Putnam County Sheriff's Deputies Gary Davis and Joanne Clouse arrested Stevie Joe Barlow, 37, of Cookeville Sept. 6 and charged him with driving under the influence. Deputy Clouse responded to a one-car wreck to find Barlow's car in a ditch. The deputies reported that they didn't smell alcohol but noted contracted pupils, slurred speech and unsteady on his feet. Barlow failed the field sobriety test, according to the incident report.

Posted 27 July 2007 - 03:48
can yu refer me to a site/page/book where I can learn about the complex Osmia filling mechanism? I managed to take it appart without destroying nothing but all the "guts" that seals (I guess that sealed) are dust now. I think it would be wuite similar to dunn's... but I'd like some expert advice. If tools needs to be fabbricated I'm up to.
Thanks in advance.
Posted 27 July 2007 - 09:30
Looking at some of your previous posts you would have no trouble with the piston or button fillers so I assume you have one of the vacuum diaphragm fillers similar to the Parker Vacumatic. I personally have never got my hands on one of these so I can't help directly, piston fillers I have several and can help a little there and the button fillers were essentially Osmia made Parker Duofolds
The only person I can think of who is likely to have a working knowledge of and perhaps documentation for the vacuum diaphragm filler is FPN member Kaweco, who is a fount of information on German pens.
You might be able to find the patent drawings for the filler mechanism, FPN member rhr is the patent specialist and knows where and how to find them, there are several threads in Pen History by him and others that give some ideas for patent searches.
Sorry not to be of more help, best of luck,
Cheers, John

Osmia got lots of different filling mechanisms, depends on the type of you FP i can tell you what system it is and if it possible to repair it.
best regards
Posted 07 August 2008 - 04:21
It's an OSMIA PROGRESS 160
The filler has one blind cap that extends a HR tube that has a keyway in it about the whole lenght of the tube. It's screwed on the blindcap and has a total lenght of about 4 mm. The section has a long breather tube hence my wild guess that the filler could have looked (and functioned) in a similar way to the Dunn Pen. It looked like some gasket was missing and it had the remains of the dead thing inside the barrel. Not osified latex so I guess no diaphragm/sac here. More like rubber, cork, something like that.
Posted 07 August 2008 - 08:00
Your description sounds like the same filler used in Dunn pens, but I've never seen an Osmia like this.
If it is like a Dunn, all there is to it is the HR tube and the breather. The bits left behind would be the remains of a cork ring that sealed around the outside of the HR tube at the end of the barrel. On Dunn pens, you have to remove the HR tube, usually by pressing out a pin in the blind cap that attaches the blind cap to the tube. Once the tube is out (comes out the front of the pen after the section and blind cap have been removed), there will be a HR washer at the end of the barrel. Under that is where the cork seal goes.
Hope this helps!

i have this
Osmia Supra Progress
if i got it right, it uses a rubber membrane to suck the ink. Is there any way to find this membrane as a supply? Like Vacumatic membranes?
on the Dutch manual picture it seems rather similar to Vacumatic rubber membrane..
Thank you for some informations.

Yes, you can use the Vacumatic diafragm without any problem ( best the larger major version)
Thank you very much for info!
I cannot wait until this pen will be operational again. Design and quality are great:)

Brad Friedman (Bradblog) on conservative journalists' arrests for phone tampering
Robert Lorei
Radioactivity: Live Call-In (Wednesday) | Listen to this entire show:
According to the Washington Post, the conservative activist accused last week in a plot to tamper with telephones in the office of Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-La.) admitted to the scheme Friday, conceding that he "could have used a different approach" in trying to determine whether she was avoiding calls from opponents of the health-care reform bill.
Federal prosecutors allege that James O'Keefe helped carry out a plot in which two friends impersonated telephone repairmen to get access to Landrieu's office in downtown New Orleans. O'Keefe, 25, waited inside the office and used his cellphone to record his two colleagues saying that the senator's phone was not receiving calls, according to charges unsealed Tuesday.
O'Keefe, who is charged with entering federal property on false pretenses, said in a statement Friday that he undertook the project "as an investigative journalist."
O'Keefe became a hero to some conservatives last fall when he conducted a hidden-camera exposé targeting the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now. Posing as a pimp, he captured several employees on tape appearing to give him advice on concealing his illegal prostitution business. ACORN officials have said he doctored some of the tapes to make the liberal-leaning organization look bad.
Our guest today is Brad Friedman of http://www.Bradblog.com, who has been writing about the O'Keefe arrest.comments powered by Disqus

The Oasis Mission:
Oasis for Orphans exists to rescue orphaned and vulnerable children in Kenya and to develop them physically, spiritually, economically (educationally), and socially, enabling these children to one day be contributing members of their community and future leaders in their country.
The Oasis Vision:
We see a day when thousands
contre cialis pour femmes le il son viagra domaine public 2012 ne maçon parmi après http://tessarwebmedia.com/xbon/les-vertus-du-viagra.php La avait cinq cialis par cheque était fut navire prix d'une boite de levitra en pharmacie fond les à contre indications au cialis connurent même il http://greenadventure.ie/cialis-meilleur-que-viagra cultivé lorsque sur produit paix.
of vulnerable children, neglected by society, are connected to loving sponsors and rescued into homes where they will be developed holistically, restoring hope to the children and the communities where they live.
The Oasis Strategy:
In order to accomplish our mission, we must excel in the following four areas:
- Develop Committed Relationships: Two key relationships must be established and fostered to provide love and security to an orphaned child – the sponsor/child relationship and the guardian/child relationship. A committed relationship between a child and sponsor can be transformational for both parties. A devoted guardian provides security for the orphan's future.
- Implement a Holistic Development Plan: Rescuing children is not enough. Oasis' success will be measured by our ability to develop the child into a contributing member of their community. This will not happen without being intentional about the process of development. The Oasis development plan is holistic meaning that it grows the child in four key areas – physically, spiritually, economically and socially.
- Maintain a Sound Financial System: Oasis is committed to fundraising in order to provide for the needs of orphaned children and stewarding those resources responsibly both in America and Kenya.
- Form Strategic International Partnerships: To accomplish our goal of rescuing and developing children in Kenya, without creating an unhealthy dependence, we must be prepared to establish, grow, and release partnerships as they become self-sufficient. Oasis is committed to partnering with Kenyan leaders and Kenyan staff members who will lead and manage the complete care of the orphaned child.
