Rolfe in Portuguese - Histórias que Toto me contou
It's always nice to hear about Frederick Rolfe being appreciated in other languages and so it was lovely to be contacted the other day by the translator of what he believes to be the first of Rolfe's books to be translated and published in Portuguese in Brazil. This is an edition of Rolfe's Toto stories and if Portuguese is your first language then you should go to Blurb and buy a copy right now! I have always wondered at the daring of a translator prepared to take on Rolfe's works as they are full of language sometimes so convoluted that an 'English first language' reader has to occasionally do a double take.
In fact, if you are unfamiliar with Rolfe's work and wonder what all the fuss is about then there are number of his books that could be recommended to you but you wouldn't go far wrong reading the Toto stories, some of Rolfe's earliest fiction but containing all his trademark circumlocutions and neologisms, with a soupcon of flowery folk-Catholicism and a whiff of the homoerotic all in rather bumptious style. The Valancourt Press edition of Stories Toto Told Me is readily available.

Agrius or Agrios (Greek: Ἄγριος), in Greek mythology, is a name that may refer to:
- A son of Parthaon, king of Calydon in Aetolia, and Euryte; he was the brother of Oeneus (who succeeded his father as king of Calydon), Alcathous, Melas, Leucopeus, and Sterope.[1] He was father of six sons, including Melanippus and Thersites, who overthrew Oeneus and gave the kingdom to their father. Agrius and his sons were themselves overthrown by Diomedes, who reinstated Oeneus as king. All the sons except Thersites were killed by Diomedes.[2] Apollodorus places these events before the expedition of the Greeks against Troy, while Hyginus states that Diomedes, when he heard, after the fall of Troy, of the misfortune of his grandfather Oeneus, hastened back and expelled Agrius, who then committed suicide;[3] according to others, Agrius and his sons were all slain by Diomedes.[4][5]
- A son of Odysseus by Circe and a brother of Latinus and Telegonus, mentioned only in Hesiod's Theogony.[6]
- One of the Gigantes, enemies of the Olympian gods. He, together with Thoon, was clubbed to death by Moirai with maces made from bronze.[7]
- One of Actaeon's dogs.[10]
The city of Agrinio, the largest city in Aetolia, took its name from Agrius.

When I was 13 or 14, I got hooked. No, not on a gateway drug (this wasn't a D.A.R.E. scenario), but on a computer game. Here's the gist: you're a special forces commando, and it's the future, so naturally, you're wearing this bionic suit that turns invisible and what not. You're sent to an island in the South Pacific where the North Koreans have inexplicably taken over and are terrorizing the populace. Soon it becomes clear that something much stranger is afoot. Perhaps, even, something not of this world. Near the climax of the game's plot line, you find yourself underground, exploring the depths of a local mountain cavern. Suddenly, you round the corner to find … an alien spaceship! embedded in the rock!
This moment from preadolescence had entirely left my brain — that is, until a recent visit to Sterling Memorial Library. Intending to hit the Periodicals Room, I rounded the corner to find … the new Center for Teaching and Learning.
"What's this?" I thought. "I knew the competition to recruit Yalies is fierce, but did Apple really need to set up a satellite office?" However, I soon found my apprehension to be unfounded.
"We're pretty tech-agnostic," said Jennifer Frederick, Executive Director, in an interview earlier this week. (A few feet from where we were sitting in the Center's expansive central study space, a reel of video interviews — including one with Frederick herself — flashed across a wall-mounted display. Nearby onlooker (and eavesdropper!) Tom Cusano, TC '18, the Herald's own former Editor-in-Chief, later told me that the stereo effect, hearing video-Frederick in one ear and live-Frederick in the other, disoriented him considerably).
The center does, of course, use a lot of digital devices. Each room comes equipped with a wifi-connected screen and a custom iPad, fastened to the door frame, which lists its daily availability. But these apparatuses, like the architecture in general, are only important insofar as they further the Center's mission, what Frederick described as an "in situ experiment" in deconstructing the classroom. In fact, if you try to reserve a space, you won't find the word "classroom" (or "study space" or "conference room") used at all. "We realized that those labels limit flexibility in the ways that you think about things," Frederick explained. Instead, they're simply referred to by size: small, medium, and large. (Around this point in the interview, I realized that the CTL's postmodern cred far surpasses my own. And I've read Infinite Jest!) Faculty and teaching fellows have only used the center for a few weeks now, but so far, the experiment seems to be going well. According to Frederick, several professors have commented that the space's design is inspiring new ways to think about their teaching. (The astrophysics professors especially must feel that whole new worlds have become available to them).
This success has long been in development. The CTL was founded in the summer of 2014 with the goal of uniting various teaching departments, heretofore scattered around the university, under the belief that their sum could very well be greater than its parts. Now, employees for different departments easily collaborate and share expertise behind the floor-to-ceiling glass walls of their open-floor-plan offices. "We see so much more of each other," Frederick chimed.
Here as before, architectural form followed organizational function. A local New Haven firm, Newman Architects, needed a design that followed the center's values of transparency, flexibility, and experimentation. "The challenge of the project was fundamentally to make those qualities … come to life in the space available," Richard Murray, principal architect at the firm told me via email. Their solution? Moveable wall partitions, staff offices that are distributed throughout the Center, and the multi-use teaching spaces so straightforwardly named by Frederick's team. Even the Spartan interior decorating plays a role: it doesn't distract. "The people and the ideas provide the color," related Frederick. "When it's busy and happening, you don't really notice that it's so neutral."
Despite my initial skepticism, the CTL has steadily grown on me. The hallway that connects it to the rest of Sterling seems less jarring than it once did. In particular, I've started to appreciate what the Center left untouched. Like artifacts in a museum, scattered architectural details — a stained-glass window or an impressive wooden door — recall the Center's history as a back office for the older, more venerable building in which it resides (even if ultimately, they fail to rid the impression that you're in an Apple Store). Go check out the CTL soon! You never know — it still may take off.

Reduce the carbon footprint of "the drink in your hand" by 25 percent by 2020.
Progress: In 2015, the
Our business unit leaders and bottling partners have set draft reduction targets through 2020, and have been given the flexibility to look across our value chain to implement locally relevant programs designed to help meet their targets. To empower global managers to reach this goal, we have developed a Carbon Scenario Planner to assist in standardizing a forecast methodology for carbon in the system supply chain and to support regional target setting.
In 2014, our business unit leaders utilized the Carbon Scenario Planner to evaluate a portfolio of carbon reduction interventions and develop initial annual reduction targets. The same year, we also entered an assurance readiness process with a third-party assurance provider to assess the program design and reporting processes related to the "drink in your hand" goal.
We have since implemented a number of recommendations arising from this assessment. As part of our work to reduce our carbon footprint, we aim to reduce the greenhouse emissions of our distribution trucking fleet, the source of about 4 percent of our value chain emissions. Our global system's fleet, which includes trucks operated by our Company and bottling partners, emitted an estimated 2.7 million metric tons of greenhouse gases in 2015, a 25 percent decrease from 2014.
Though they currently compose a small portion of our fleet, we continue to add delivery trucks powered with a mix of alternative fuels, including electricity, natural gas, diesel electric and biodiesel.
*The 13 percent calculation of progress toward our "drink in your hand" goal has been internally vetted using accepted and relevant scientific and technical methodologies, but those methodologies are evolving. We are working to simplify our data collection and measuring systems, and plan to have our data verified by an independent third-party for 2016. At that time, we will also revisit our 2015 estimate to ensure its accuracy and make any updates for necessary corrections, if any, to our public reporting.

I'm excited to have purchased a laptop with a quad-core i7 processor. Maybe now I will be able to run iPhoto.
@cmdshft Cache, I presume. That's usually why.
@alexmontjohn Latter route is more easy for you since you have less than 3.2K tweets. I'm still sorry that this is even an issue, though.
@simoncox Nope, configuration for PHP. php.net/memory_limit
@cmdshft Open styles.css.php in your browser and you'll get the generated one, free from all the PHP. Could make a CSS file based on that.
@cmdshft There's PHP in the CSS file because some values can be changed in the config file. But you can just as well make a static CSS file.
@cmdshft Oh. Just change 'top_background_image' directive in TN config file in order to point to a different file.
@cmdshft Previous tweet assumes you want to modify HTML. If you just want to modify CSS, it's much easier: config.php and styles folder.
@cmdshft Depends on the trouble. Generally, look at header/footer/html.php in inc folder. HTML and PHP is way too intermixed atm, though.
@alexmontjohn Because some parts of the tweet loading mechanism was coded in a stupid way. Delete the duplicates and look forward to TN2.
@simoncox Too many tweets in memory, I suppose. Only solution I know of is to keep memory_limit in PHP config high.
@MenschMitHut Sure, look at the first couple lines of inc/preheader.php. Newest is 0.8.3, May 2012. Changelog feed: pongsocket.com/tweetnest/feed
@giantworksltd I'm open for ideas in any shape or form, though, as I'm developing Tweet Nest 2.

I text this guy like all the time and he always replies back an OK, yep, and like a "ha ha." Does this mean he doesn't really want to talk, is he busy maybe, or am I just boring to him. I don't know what to do. I like talking to him but its hard to text when he just says a one worded text. What should I do..help! :(
Most Helpful Girl
As harsh as it sounds- you need to hear the truth- it will only help you in the end. He's Just Not that into you. Read the book, it actually makes sense!
No guy is too busy, or just "not a text pr phone person"... These are just girls ways of making excuses to help them feel better. TRUST ME, if a guy wants to talk to a girl and if he's interested, hell go to the ends of the earth to make it happen- HE WILL FIND A WAY!... Nobody HAS time nowadays, you just MAKE time for things that are important. The faster you accept this reality, the sooner you'll move on.22|00|0

A sedentary lifestyle can amplify a genetic disposition to obesity, but just walking briskly each day can cut that effect in half, a new study has shown.
"This is the first study that directly looked at the effect of the sedentary behaviour of television watching on the body mass index (BMI) of individuals with a genetic predisposition to obesity," said study author Qibin Qi authors at a conference by the American Heart Association this week in San Diego, California.
To combat the results, Qi said a one-hour daily walk "reduced the genetic influence towards obesity, measured by differences in BMI by half."
The study involved 7,740 women and 4,564 men, with researchers collecting data on their physical activity and TV watching two years prior to assessing their BMI.
The average American watches television for about four to six hours each day, noted Qi.
The BMI indicator is the ratio of weight in kilograms to square of height in meters - on this scale, a score of 30 or more is considered obese.
The genetic effect on BMI was seen as "more pronounced in people who spent 40 hours a week watching television than those who spent an hour or less, 0.34 versus 0.08 kg/m2," according to the study.
The recommended walking exercise was associated with 0.06 kg/m2 reduction in the genetic effect on BMI, said researchers, who presented their report at the American Heart Association's Epidemiology and Prevention/Nutrition, Physical Activity and Metabolism 2012 Scientific Sessions conference in San Diego. - AFP

means helping 4-H counselors of Van Wert county to be able to go to 4-H
Camp and reach out to the kids that will be there," said Gottke. "I get
just a little emotional when I think of the opportunity for staff and
4-Hers to go to camp. We do everything we can do to make sure that
everyone can go."
Currently there are 37 vendors bringing
hand-made crafts and popular products to the Junior Fair Building from
10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday. In addition, an Easter bunny will be
there to greet the children, complete with a backdrop for family
pictures. Proceeds support 4-H camp counselors.
The combined total
cost for 4-H Camp for those from this area is $23,000, with an
individual cost of $170 per camper. While the craft show helps offset
some of the cost for camp, Gottke stressed that the Van Wert County
Foundation provides grant money for the camp. In addition, other sources
of income comes from local businesses and local supporters.
A second fund-raiser for camp is held through a Christmas Bazaar in December, Gottke said.
This year's camp is held at Camp Palmer near Fayette and Harrison Lake.
kids that are volunteers range in age from 15-18. They do 24 hours of
training to go as camp counselors. Campers range in age from 8-years-old
to 15-years-old. This year's camp will be held July 5-9," said Gottke.
year, Gottke anticipates an attendance of 100 campers and 30 trained
counselors. Activities throughout the week include canoeing, crafts,
wall climbing, swimming, line dancing, nature center, zip line, lots of
nature-based instruction and managed shooting sports such as archery and
"We take a nurse with us," said Gottke, who is personally
an EMT. "If there are any emotional or personal needs that come up, they
are referred to me."
"I will address or seek help for any serious
needs that come up," continued Gottke. "If there are special needs that
make it difficult for 4-Hers to go to camp, we will do everything we
can to get them there. It's important to me that every child gets to
In addition to the craft show, also this weekend there will
be a 4-H Awards Banquet held at 5:30 p.m. on Sunday evening at the
Extension Building.

Great list! I've found that a lot of writers aren't serious about being authors. They only want to say they are but not put in the hard work. But those who are serious avoid most of these. :)ReplyDelete
Ane, you are so right! Blessings, EDelete
Good advice on "the story REALLY starts here" phenomenon. Definitely want to rewrite and avoid that, because readers check those first few sample chapters on Amazon and if the story doesn't get rolling there, they often won't purchase! Hooking quickly is key, but it doesn't mean we have to have explosions or over-drama. People just need to feel connected to the characters and wonder what's going to happen next, I think. :)ReplyDelete
Heather, great insight. Writers used to only have to hook editors at the beginning, now readers are much more savvy. Blessings, EDelete
Thank you for this Edie. I feel like jumping up and saying AMEN! Reading this list confirms many observations I've made over the last year. You've given me more to consider as well. Good stuff. Glad to read your thoughts & keep these tips in mind. :)ReplyDelete

McLean, Virginia – (via THE HOSTING NEWS) – August 25, 2005 – The Better Business Bureau System
and Capital One Financial have released the latest set of resources for small business owners as part of the BBBTips financial education series. The newly-introduced BBBTips on Small Business Start-Up offer advice and strategies designed to help entrepreneurs effectively plan for and manage both the start-up costs and the financing challenges associated with opening a small business.
Ken Hunter, President and CEO of the Council of Better Business Bureaus explained, "Many first-time business owners underestimate the amount of money they will need to get their small businesses off the ground and don't know how to secure the financing they need. These are two major reasons so many small businesses fail within the first year or never get off the ground at all. The new BBBTips on Small Business Start-Up offer information and easy tips entrepreneurs can use to estimate costs and manage both the initial financing and ongoing expenses of running a business."
The new BBBTips on Small Business Start-up Costs offer practical worksheets and exercises, along with budgeting and planning advice, including:
How to Estimate Start-up Costs
Information and an easy-to-follow worksheet on the types of initial expenses that most businesses incur including housing needs, office equipment and insurance.
Projecting Ongoing Monthly Operating Expenses
A monthly worksheet and formula to help small business owners calculate the ongoing costs of outfitting, promoting and operating a business.
Advice on How to Economize – Wisely
Important advice for entrepreneurs on ways to economize when launching a start-up, as well as a list of additional educational resources to manage the start-up process.
BBBTips on Small Business Start-up Costs also provides helpful information on U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) loans – considered one of the most accessible and popular financing options for new small businesses. A government agency created in 1953 to "aid, counsel, assist and protect…the interests of small business concerns", the SBA's current business loan portfolio consists of 219,000 loans, which together are worth more than $45 billion. This makes the SBA the largest single financial backer of U.S. businesses in the nation.
Capital One-sponsored BBBTips on Small Business Administration Loans provides entrepreneurs specific information on SBA loans including:
Who is Eligible for a SBA Loan?
Information on the advantages of an SBA loan and specific requirements to qualification.
What Kinds of SBA Loans are Available?
The SBA offers three types of loans: the Basic Section 7(a) Loan Guaranty Program, the Section 504 Certified Development Company (CDC) Program and the MicroLoan Section 7(m) Loan Program. This section will help aspiring small business owners determine which loan is right for them.
How to Apply for an SBA Loan
Specific information to walk individuals through the application process.
"It's important for aspiring new business owners to be aware of the various financing options and start-up costs involved with a new business so they can establish a realistic budget and secure adequate financing to get started," said Diana Don Colby, Director of Financial Education at Capital One. "There is a range of financing options available, and this new set of BBB Tips can help entrepreneurs navigate these choices and find the appropriate option to meet their specific needs."
The Capital One-sponsored BBBTips for Small Business are free and available online at www.bbb.org/tips/capitalone. As the 3rd largest issuer of SBA loans, Capital One also has information available on its web site about loans.

get to lay down for the day! It has been a super long day. Mamas just don't get to be sick like the rest of the world. But that's ok...I'm pretty sure that the house would actually fall apart if I did take time time to rest. Lol
same with me. I have been sick to.
It is no fun!
Comment deleted
Oh man I don't even want to think about how long it would take me to get it back together! Lol
the house can wait...take your time and relax
I didn't clean as much as I would like too, but I have to work tonight and I can't concentrate in a messy house. Lol
My son just turned two. Thankfully my Mom took him while we were at the hospital yesterday. There are people how could take him they just don't. I'm starting to honestly feel like no one around me cares that I'm sick. Ugh! Yeah, I've never been sick like this while I was pregnant. I can't even remember the last time I was this sick, pregnant or not. I haven't had bronchitis in a very long time and I forgot how brutal it is

Many students find physics to be one of the more exciting categories of science fair projects. The field offers children a wide range of theories to test and explore. From gravity to action and reaction, this list provides science fair topic ideas in the physics arena.

Science fair projects that explore pendulums typically dazzle students. Whether a child chooses to explain , researches what makes a pendulum swing or looks at how weight and length of string affect a pendulum's motion, she'll likely have fun with this idea and learn a great deal in the process.

Like , your budding physicist probably enjoys dropping things from heights. Believe it or not, falling objects science fair projects don't simply appeal to juvenile fancy. They're actually valid topics.

Students can examine the rate at which objects fall based on the weight and the height from which they are dropped. This finding can lead children to consider a number of possibilities for gravitational experiments.

Before they begin, however, make sure children and those around them are safe. Do not allow the falling objects children drop to endanger passersby and ensure that children are positioned stably when they drop objects to prevent them from falling to the ground along with their experiments.

Surface tension experiment ideas for the science fair can take many forms and can answer a number of different questions. Your child may want to present his findings like a magic trick, making a needle float on the top of a glass of water, or she may prefer to take a more serious approach, looking at how different additives affect the surface tension of water. Let children pursue whichever idea bests suits them and piques their curiosity. With that in mind, parents don't have to worry that children have chosen the wrong science fair project idea.

Children can demonstrate Newton's third law of motion in a number of ways, but none of them are quite so fun or visually expressive as . With a balloon, a straw, a piece of string and a couple of chairs, your child can blow her peers away by demonstrating action and reaction. They'll be amazed at how simple household items can demonstrate this groundbreaking scientific law.

Sir Isaac Newton had a lot to say about scientific concepts, and not all of it was about motion. Your child, for instance, can recreate Newton's discovery that white light can be broken down into a spectrum of colors, or rainbows, by using sunlight and a prism, a flashlight and a fishbowl of water. Alternatively, children can create diagrams to explain the process.

The London and North Eastern Railway was one of the Big Four companies, formed during the 1923 Grouping Act in Britain. In this form, with engines from the North Eastern Region, and Great Northern Railway, it lasted a mere 25 years.
Several engines on the North Western Railway came from the North Eastern region, like Gordon - a Gresley A1/3, Toby - a Holden J70, and Molly - a Holden D16.
There was a new engine, a Holden rebuild of the Holmes J83. Zack is one such steam engine. He is a small, but powerful mixed-traffic tank engine. Bright blue, with LNER on his side tanks, and a number 15 on his bunker sides.
One morning, he was shunting about the yard. Gordon and James showed their different opinions.
James: He is sort of a blue box on wheels!
Gordon: He is quite small, but he works very hard.
The two engines watched Zack arrange the trucks with interest. Soon, Henry's goods train was ready, and Zack backed down next to them for a rest.
Zack: Good morning!
Gordon: Good morning, new engine.
James: {grunts}
Gordon: That was impressive shunting.
James: Huh! {He puffs away, annoyed.}
Zack: {worried} I hope I didn't offend your friend.
Gordon: Nah, he's a bit grumpy sometimes.
Zack: I'm on trail, you know. If I do well, I might get to stay here.
Gordon: Carry on like that, and you'll be able to take over Norramby shunter for Dennis!
Zack: Oh, dear! I wouldn't want to lose anyone their job!
Gordon: Never mind! He's been complaining he doesn't get any long runs with the shunting.
Zack: Ah! Well, I'll just carry on like that, then!
Zack was soon shunting the trains at Norramby. The engines were glad of a new engine, but they found it hard for him to talk to.
Neville: {puzzled} He doesn't want to talk to us. I don't understand it. I only said "Good morning", and he puffed away without a word.
Molly: {obviously hurt} I can't understand why he ignored me! I only said "Hello"!
Eagle: {raising an eyebrow} He's probably shy, he is new, after all, many strange sights and engines. And of course, you'll find him hard to talk to.
Eagle puffed out of his siding, to find Zack and talk to him. But it seemed, no matter where he was, Zack just puffed away. Eventually, Eagle gave up, and returned to a siding to have a rest. He was feeling rather glum, when Zack backed down next to him.
Zack: Hello! I'm Zack. Nice line you have here, isn't it?
Eagle was speechless!
Eagle: {more amused than upset} Why do you keep coming away from me?
Zack: I wasn't doing it on purpose. I just wanted to finish my work first.
Eagle: And have you... {looks around the yard}
He had to do a double-take, as the yard was completely ordered. Trucks were in their right place, coaches were organized into their rates, and even the special vans train for Marty was ready.
Eagle: Silly question! Well, you've really worked very hard today. I feel I should warn you, you may have upset Molly and Neville.
Zack: Oh! Erm... the D16 and Q1?
Eagle: Yes.
Zack: Sometimes, I just don't notice anyone else when I'm concentrating on my work.
Eagle: Yes, sometimes concentration on your work is the best thing to do. You probably worked at I big yard in the former LNER, I presume.
Zack: Oh, yes - Copley Hill Sheds,
Eagle: Well, there you go then. You probably didn't have the time to retaliate my friends.
Zack: It must be a nice railway here, where everyone knows your name and number.
That night, Neville was staying over night on the main line, and Olivia, Dennis, and Marty were pulling their goods trains. Molly found herself alone with Eagle and Zack, and was surprised to hear Eagle talking to Zack. Molly was very upset. She had tried to be polite earlier, but Zack had seemingly ignored her. Molly decided to pretend to be asleep, and listen in on the conversation further. But her plan failed badly, when she actually fell asleep. Eagle glanced over at the Holden D16, and was surprised to see her asleep so early.
Eagle: Don't worry, I'm sure you'll be able to say hello to her tomorrow.
The next morning, a curious bull from the farm found a hole the wall of his field. Clambering over, he found some grass on the overgrowing track bed, and beckoned the rest to follow. One by one, they left the field, and followed down the track towards the entrance to the tunnel. The bull stopped outside the mouth of the tunnel, and gave in.
Meanwhile, Molly was having a great run, the sun was shining, the birds were singing, the bull was in the tunnel... the bull was in the tunnel?! Molly screeched to a halt, frozen stiff, and absolutely petrified! Not far from the tunnel, Zack was simmering in the yard. He arranged the trucks and coaches earlier than ever, and was taking a well-earned break, when the foreman came to see him.
Foreman: Zack, I need you to take the cattle truck and brakevan along, to the tunnel. There's a stray herd of cows of the farmer's, and it's holding Molly's train up.
Zack: Right-o! {He couples up to the cattle truck and brakevan.}
Molly was waiting in the tunnel, and refusing to come out. You see, she had a nasty accident with a bull not long ago, and since then, had been afraid of cattle in general.
Molly: I'm not coming out! I can't stand cows in the know!
Marzipan: All right, Molly. They're sending down the farmer to take them away.
The bull turned back to look at Molly, and she gulped. The bull mooed mournfully. He just wanted some more grass to eat. There was no grass anywhere on the gravel track. What was more, a strange brown thing was approaching him. It looked to the bull, like another larger cow, and moved closer to it, interested. The brown cow was Zack's brakevan, and he stopped not far from the tunnel. The farmer jumped down from the brakevan, whispered sweet nothings to his prize bull, and led him and the herd down the track, back towards the field. Molly watched, mesmerized, and Zack smiled knowingly. Molly started again, and whistled her thanks. Zack could only watched as the D16 checked the level crossings for signs of cows.
Later that day, Molly was telling Thomas, Emily, and Neville that Zack had saved her life. Spencer had recovered from his mishap, and looked bored-witness. He spent a difficult few days at the works, as they tinkered with his wheels and motion, and this not helping his already bad mood. So raising steam, whistling loudly, he puffed away.
Spencer: I have to go and do the choral runs, you know. A few days at the works does make an engine stiff.
Molly continued her story, and Thomas and Emily, both tried after a long day, were having difficulty keeping up with the ever revolving story.
Molly: I was surrounded by a herd of bulls, with no way through! But Zack sifted him with his little train and scared him away! If it hadn't been for Zack-
Thomas and Emily looked at Zack questioningly, and Zack simply grinned back at them. Thomas and Emily understood instantly, and laughed. The message was simple. Actions speak louder than words, and it only takes Molly to come up with some cock-and-bull story!

This is something I tried eighteen months ago and was pleasantly surprised by the response so once again: a catalogue (a short one) of unique books and other items. We are talking handwritten manuscripts, collections of photographs and postcards, notebooks, clippings books... all sorts of 'stuff' and, I hope, the kind of things that our type of person really has a feeling for.
So if you are in the UK, this is a little summer treat, if you are one my Australian customers, think of it as a winter warmer!
Prices range from £15 to £600 so I hope there's something for everyone in both subject matter and price. The catalogue is in pdf format only here:
NB: if you have a btinternet account and are on my mailing list, you may be wondering why you haven't already got an email about this. It's because btinternet routinely 'delay' and then often don't deliver emails coming from the company who provide my email services. There are only two things you can do about this. You can talk to btinternet and ask them about it (they won't talk to me because I'm not one of their customers!) or if you would like to provide an alternate email I can change your entry on my list.

Norris Cole
December 28, 2011 by staff
Norris Cole, The title of the story may be confusing, but there is no mistake. Norris Cole, the highly touted rookie from Cleveland State, scored an incredible 14 points in the fourth quarter to help Miami close out the fast finishing Celtics.
Cole was fearless in crunch time, making plays at both ends of the court and never panicking, despite at times being asked to bail Miami out late in the shot clock. I do not wish to delve any deeper into Cole's game or the player he promises to become because I wish to write a separate piece on him which I will do later today, so we'll move onto the other positives for the Heat.
Again for 3 – 3.5 quarters Miami were at their absolute best, making defensive stops, getting out in transition and balancing that successfully with intelligent spacing when in a half court set. James and Wade were picking the Celtics apart on the fast break but looking equally as comfort when asked to back down defenders or play the new spaced offense that has been integrated by Spoelstra this season.
LeBron James finished with 26 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists, shooting an efficient 9/14 from the field and 8/9 from the line. Dwyane Wade had 24 points, 8 assists and 4 blocks.
I will openly admit I have been one of the harshest critics of Chris Bosh, only because I was such a fan of his at Toronto and I was so disappointed at basically his entire debut season with the Heat. I thought he would be the difference maker and the most important player on the team. Nonetheless Bosh bounced back in a big way against the Celtics, following a hugely disappointing 4 point game on opening day in Dallas.
Bosh finished with a grinding 19 points, but more importantly pulled down a tough 11 boards against one of the best interior teams in the league. Bosh gave us a glimpse of the three point shot he has been walking on over the summer, and he hit his only attempt from down town.
There were two big blemishes on the game for me personally. One, that there were far too many turnovers. Mario Chalmers had his worst game I have seen in a Heat jersey, and he was the main culprit, but the team as a whole were far too careless in possession and that needs to be addressed.

Reviews of Mill-Pond

We looked for a place for my mom, and we have her in Mill-Pond. It is very nice and very comfortable. The staff is just wonderful. They are kind and very caring. They give us phone calls a lot to let us know how she is doing. She is in a shared room. It is not gigantic, but it is bigger than a hospital room. Every single room has a very pleasant view, and most of them has a view of the pond. There are lots of activities. They have fountains in the different little ponds. It is very nice there. The food is good. She has physical therapy every single day. They do have a variety of things, and they have a calendar every month as to what they are doing every single day. There are at least 2 or 3 activities every single day.

My Mom was in Millpond for over 16 years and I can not say enough about her Family at Millpond. They always cared for her and the care was top notch. I don't know what I would have done with out our Millpond Family. The last 5 years of my Mothers Life she was in the care center and her Nurses were Awesome and always did what ever then needed to, to keep her happy. Nurse Lora & Steffie became just like her children. Those two ALWAYS went OVER AND ABOVE caring for our Mother!!!! Sometime Mom even felt like she wanted them over her own children. At the end when she went home to be with the Lord, The little honor service that was held for her right after her death was Unbelievable and such a caring way to let Mom go! I can not say enough about Millpond and will always be Grateful for the whole staff and friends that have become so special and all the Memories will never be forgotten!!!!

My father-in-law has been a resident of the nursing home for the past year. He is not able to walk but is cognitively gifted. He is fairly dependent on staff for assistance. I have found the facility and staff to be EXCELLENT! He is treated like a family member but just about everyone who comes in contact with him. The laundry service and overall cleanliness of the facility is superior. The activities opportunities are bountiful. The van service they offer residents is great! Our family is thrilled with Mill Pond!

when i visited the nursing home they have a very friendly atmosphere that make guests feel at home. the people working there are friendly and will help anyone that is needing directions, assistance, and information. there are minor errors but overall i think is a nice facility that is clean and allows the residents to good outside and have a nice relaxing day in the middle of summer.

We recently moved my mother-in-law into independent living here and we really like it. It's a very nice facility with many activities should your loved one want to take part. Independent Living is attached to the Assisted Living complex and there is also a nursing home attached. This will be so convenient should we need to move from one stage to the next down the road. Everyone is very, very friendly and it is a safe place, which is important to us.

30 days of locally grown eating equals personal and economic health
Published: Friday, April 25, 2014 at 7:37 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, April 25, 2014 at 7:37 p.m.
When Andi Houston first participated in the Alachua County Eat Local Challenge, she was surprised by how easily her family was able to adjust to her new recipes.
If you go
What: Seventh annual Alachua County Eat Local Challenge kickoff
When: 8:30 a.m. to noon Saturday
Where: Alachua County Farmers Market, 5920 NW 13th St.
Registration: Free. Go to www.hogtownhome
Houston had always been into eating local, but she decided to step it up a notch with the one-month challenge to eat nothing but locally grown food.
"It changed the way I eat on a regular basis," said Houston, the assistant market manager for the Alachua County Farmers Market. "When I brought my family more on board, we realized as a family that this food tastes better."
For those hoping to participate this year, the seventh annual Alachua County Eat Local Challenge will hold a kickoff event from 8:30 a.m. to noon Saturday at the Alachua County Famers Market, 5920 NW 13th St. The event will feature live music and a series of workshops ranging from knitting to growing shiitake mushrooms.
The challenge, which calls for participants to pledge to eat locally grown and produced food every day at home or at locally owned restaurants for the month of May, officially begins Thursday and ends May 31, when organizers will host a celebration at Sweet Dreams Ice Cream.
Stefanie Samara Hamblen, the organizer of the challenge, said she decided to hold the challenge in May because it's the best time of year to get a variety of produce in the local area. Alachua County Commissioner Robert Hutchinson also will be attending the kickoff to declare May as "Eat Local Month" for Alachua County. Registration is free and can be done at www.hogtownhomegrown.com or at the Hogtown HomeGrown Facebook page.
"We in North Central Florida are extremely lucky because we have such wide varieties of food in [the] early weeks of summer," Houston said. "It's not like this is a month of deprivation by any stretch of the imagination."
In recent years, registration for the Alachua County Eat Local Challenge has peaked at about 500 people, said Hamblen, who writes the blog Hogtown HomeGrown and owns The Illegal Jam Company.
But for each person who participates in the event, there are typically three to four others at home eating the same thing, Hamblen said, so the scope of this challenge affects up to 2,500 people.
That's a stark difference from when she first organized the challenge. In 2008, the idea of eating local hadn't really caught on, she said.
"Part of the way I measure the success is how many restaurants feel the need to serve local food," Hamblen said.
In the challenge's first year, only one restaurant in the area was serving local food. This year, that number has increased to more than three dozen. Among the restaurants participating in the challenge are The Jones, The Top, Ivey's Grill, Northwest Grille, Blue Highway Pizza — both the Micanopy and Tioga locations — Harvest Thyme, Café C, Sweet Dreams Homemade Ice Cream, Leonardo's 706 and Amelia's.
Hamblen said she personally speaks to restaurant owners and managers to get them on board for the Eat Local Challenge. If they agree to participate by creating menu items that are made up of all local ingredients, she gives them an Eat Local Challenge sticker they can put on their doors.
A lot of the places that offer local food on their menu year-round started out by using local food as a special during the month of May, she said.
Tempo Bistro To Go, a restaurant that tries to make everything on its menu from local ingredients, has been a partner in the Eat Local Challenge since it first opened.
John Drum, co-owner and manager of Tempo, said there's very little profit in what he's doing, but he does it because it feels right.
"Our food costs are through the roof," Drum said.
But for him, the costs are well worth it, especially when he hears his customers talk about how fresh and real the food tastes.
"If more people would not just participate in the eat local challenge, but really invest in it, they would realize the food tastes better," Houston said. "The environmental stuff is wonderful icing on the cake."

Picking Up the Slack
Chris Holt, bottom right, reminds us this morning of why Carter Albrecht meant so much to so many -- because of his inspiring talent.
On page 23 of this morning's New York Times is yet another story detailing the death of Carter Albrecht on Monday, and it covers just about everything -- the incident on Monday morning, the smoking-cessation drug, the application of the "castle doctrine" law, the politics of self-defense. But it neglects to mention precisely why Albrecht's passing merits several hundred words in The Paper of Record -- not just because his death will likely prove a test case for new legislation, but because he was, as so many have said in recent days, someone whose life mattered.
So after you read The Times piece, go here -- to Chris Holt's MySpace page, where yesterday he posted a heartbreaking eulogy for his bandmate and friend since 1997, when Albrecht used to jam with Holt in a band called Walter Mitty, which was a precursor to Holt's beloved Olospo. "His genius was so powerful, you just couldn't help but be in awe of him," Chris writes. Here, he describes the last time he saw Carter:
I remember the last time I saw him. It was last Thursday night, the day before I left town for Labor Day weekend. We were over at Tom's, working on the Sorta record. We talked about arrangements for songs and played Madden football on X-box. I remember I begged him to show me the G-major 9 tuning that he used for several of the songs on his new record and he showed me a snippet of how to play "Jesus Lite", which is the best song he's ever written, in my opinion. He asked me to show him how to play "The Thief", a song of mine, and he said how much he loved the opening riff. He was very complimentary of The Slack record, and it meant the world to me, cause I knew that Carter wasn't a bullshitter. If he didn't like it, he'd tell you, or if he wanted to spare your feelings, he'd just keep quiet. But he went out of his way to compliment me and it made me feel great. Tom's girlfriend Cris made us chocolate malts and we scarfed them down and joked around some more before he said he was gonna get some sleep. He walked out the door and I never saw him again.
I also see Zac Crain has posted a brief, but well-considered, obituary to Sorta's MySpace page. --Robert Wilonsky

German Foreign Minister has vowed that the international community will block Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon, as he underscored Germany's steadfast support for Israel.
The West worries Iran is trying to develop an atomic bomb under cover of a civilian energy programme, but Tehran insists the programme is solely peaceful.
Last month, the so-called P5+1 group -- the five permanent members of the UN Security Council plus Germany -- met in Istanbul with Iranian officials to discuss their concerns, with a further meeting set for May 23rd in Baghdad.

Boys, which body spray do you use? And girls can you tell me which body spray that your boyfriends' or frinds' choises
Most Helpful Guy
I don't fuck with body sprays. I prefer cologne, such as L'Homme by Yves St. Laurent. Always got positive reviews from the ladies👍 Butttttt, don't forget that less is more with cologne. One shot only, and preferably not even on your skin directly, spray it above you and let it fall. It's a thin line between smelling good and being the guy doused in cologne, haha. Don't be "that guy."00|00|0

Don't forget you can earn yourself a £25 shop voucher if you let the club know you won't be in your seat.
The club, for whatever reason seem reluctant to promote this. Being an evening, I suspect there will be the usual number of kiddie absentees, so make your ticket avaiable now!
Or, check out the home tickets wanted board. Would be a shame to see a load of empties when this game has been offically sold out for so long and there is do doubt more demand

|Re: [Proposal for Review] The fix for DERBY-3347 is important enough for the Development Community to issue a recommendation the User Community to upgrade.
|Wed, 30 Apr 2008 07:52:39 GMT
Updating Stan's proposed announcement based on recent feedback... On Mon, Apr 28, 2008 at 5:23 PM, Stanley Bradbury <firstname.lastname@example.com> wrote: *** For Review and comment *** NOTICE TO ALL DERBY v10.3 USERS : CRITICAL FIX NOW AVAILABLE The Bottom Line: If you are currently using Derby 10.3.1.4 or Derby 10.3.2.1, it is strongly recommended that you upgrade to Derby 10.4.1.3 or 10.3.3.0 to avoid any chance of database corruption due to an issue with multiple threads accessing a database that is documented in DERBY-3347. This bug can cause unrecoverable database corruption during periods of heavy, multi-thread I/O operations. The error produced in the test case used to diagnose the problem was: ERROR XSDB3: Container information cannot change once written: was 0, now 80 It is felt that other errors might also be generated when this type of corruption occurs. The corruption message will most likely refer to page 0 of the container. For example: ERROR XSDG1: Page Page(0 ,Container(0, 5856)) could not be written... This bug corrupts the pages on disk and can go unnoticed. If you do not run database consistency checks regularly it is recommended you begin doing so as soon as possible after the upgrade. To insure that corruption has not already occurred in existing databases, after upgrade run the database consistency check at least once to validate all tables in the database. This process is documented at: http://wiki.apache.org/db-derby/DatabaseConsistencyCheck If corruption has already occurred the database will need to be recovered from the last good backup. There is no alternative solution. Version 10.3.3.0 can be downloaded from: http://db.apache.org/derby/releases/release-10.3.3.0.cgi Version 10.4.1.3 can be downloaded from: http://db.apache.org/derby/releases/release-10.4.1.3.cgi ... Please let me know if you think there is additional information that is required. I think addressing this to Derby v10.3 users, along with the specific address to 10.3.1 and 10.3.2 users, should cover everyone affected. Are we sure this only affects Windows? If not, I say we leave platform specific details out. Other mail from Knut made it appear that this was definitely not a platform specific problem, but maybe platform specific JVM details make it harder to reproduce on non-Windows platforms. Thanks, Knut, for writing the release note. I don't really have anything to add, except maybe we should add exactly why we think the problem occurs (multiple threads accessing first page in heavily contended scenario). Maybe that's too much information for an end user. I propose also that we remove 10.3.1.4 and 10.3.2.1 from the download page. Do we also remove them from the archive? That is definitely something to check. It may be important to retain these from an Apache infrastructure/archive perspective. I'll follow up on that later. andrew

Best With Vape Juices $49.99
The TFV4 Sub Ohm Tank from SMOK hit the shelves in 2015, and ever since it's been reviewed as a truly premium vaping experience. Want to know more about this awesome kit? Check out our very own review of the SMOK TFV4 Sub-Ohm Tank below.
This impressive tank kit retails at $49.99. Just seeing the price point may make some vapers wary, but the kit may just be worth the money. If there's one thing SMOK has done right, it's been listening to feedback and continually innovating – each newly-released tank and vape mod are markedly improved from its previous versions. The TVF4 has some pretty sweet features that make up for its clearly steep price.
The Entire Kit
Smok has been known to have one of the most complete tank and mod kits around, and with the TFV4 sub-ohm kit they definitely don't disappoint. Here's what you can expect in the box:
- SMOK TFV4 tank with pre-installed 0.2 ohm TF-T3 triple coil
- TF-Q4 0.15-ohm quad coil
- TF-R1 single coil RBA deck
- Extra Pyrex tank
- Extra Black and White Silicon Seals
- Type C sealing pad
- Two drip tip sealing rings
- One airflow sealing ring
- Packet complete with RBA accessories, Japanese cotton wick, and a pre-made pre-coil.
- Instruction manual
For the price, you do get a lot, and all in one sleek, awesomely-designed tank kit. By the looks of its contents, we're sure to see some huge, thick clouds with the TFV4!
Let's Talk About Features
- Dimensions: 24.5mm width x 70mm height
- Capacity: 5ml
- Patented sub-ohm quadruple coil 0.15Ω (TF-Q4)
- Patented sub-ohm triple coil 0.2Ω (TF-T3)
- Rebuildable dual coil 0.25Ω (TF-R2)
- Rebuildable single coil 0.85Ω (TF-R1)
- Replaceable glass (Pyrex) tube
- Double layered drip tip structure
- Huge liquid intake holes for much bigger vapor
- Leak-proof system with top refill swiveling capability
A Quick Glance at the SMOK TFV4 Sub Ohm Tank
SMOK really went for it on this one. All their vape mods and tanks are built with quality, but the TFV4 stands out amongst its peers and competition – in fact, there's hardly ever any competition at all.
This is a heavy tank that's made out of stainless steel and sturdy Pyrex glass. It might be too much for flimsy or smaller mods, so be aware of that.
Let's Check the Airflow
As the SMOK TFV4 Sub Ohm Tank is built for the benefit of cloud junkies, it's got pretty impressive airflow slits sitting right on its airflow control ring. It's also got the same airflow structure on the foot of the drip tip. Closing it will mean a warmer vape, while opening it will result in a much cooler vape.
What we like most about the airflow system is how adjustable it is. Simply turn the ring left and right according to your preference. There's also no leakage in the airflow slits, except for a bit of condensation due to the huge clouds produced.
Fill It Up, You Say?
Another great, convenient feature we enjoyed is the TFV4's top filling system. SMOK has incorporated a swiveling feature on top of the tank, which gives users access to a huge filling port so you won't have to worry about spilling your expensive, flavorful juices.
Time for Some Cloud Action: Overview of the Coils Included
Now for the most exciting part: trying out the three coils that's included in the kit. We've broken it down for you and tested different ranges for your sake (and ours , too).
The 0.2-ohm TF-T3 Triple Coil
This is the pre-installed coil, so it's the one we started off with. The manual says that this coil works between 40-130 W, so we used it at the minimum, 40W. Flavor wasn't that impressive, but cloud production was off to a good start.
We increased the power to 50 W, and at this level the flavor was clearly more pronounced and the clouds are improved.
We didn't think it there would be much of a difference at 60-70 W, so we went straight to 80 W. At this level we really got the best combination of cloud production and warm flavor without any dryness.
TF-Q4 0.15-ohm Quad Coil
According to SMOK, the 0.15-ohm TF-Q4 quad coil can be used anywhere between 40-140 W. Again we started out with 40 W. Unsurprisingly, there was nothing special about the 40 W experience; the flavor and clouds were low-key.
We then jumped up to 80 W and got a warmer vape with awesome clouds and explosive flavor! We then amped it to 100 W and clouds were chugging out, with no change in flavor. The vape was a bit warm, but not hot.
We tried 140 W and if you're really into huge, thick clouds you're going to love how TFV4 performs at this range. The clouds were pretty amazing and get thicker after every hit but, as expected, it got a bit hot even with the airflow slits were wide open. Our juice ran out pretty fast, and we had to refill the tank five times.
TF-R1 Single Coil RBA Deck
If you love building your own coil, you'll dig the TF-R1 RBA deck that's included in the kit. We used the pre-made coil (also included in the kit) with a resistance of 0.85-ohm.
We had the coil primed by soaking the wick with juice. We also filled the tank and left it there for a few minutes before cranking it up to 20 W. It was fairly normal vaping, nothing amazing, so we went straight to 30 W to see how it would do.
Unfortunately, at this level the vaping was not an enjoyable experience, and we got mostly dry hits. We decided to lower the power to 25 W, which we thought was the best setting. At this wattage, the flavor and cloud production were ok, but not completely amazing.
Drum Roll Please
In summary, we think that the SMOK TFV4 sub-ohm tank is one of the best tanks on the market. It's also one of the most complete kits we've had the chance to review so far.
It's sturdy, handsomely crafted, and nearly perfect. It also delivers exceptional flavor when set in the right range, and is definitely a great choice for people that love monstrous clouds minus dry hits.
The refilling system is one of the best we've seen so far. It's easy, convenient and you won't make a mess when putting in your preferred juice. The sub-ohm tank doesn't also leak and vaporizes juices in a matter of minutes.
All of these features are pretty awesome, but it's a bit too bulky for most mods out there. If you don't mind that area and put more emphasis on performance, this is the best sub-ohm tank for you.
