When we were beginner language students I translated a dog restaurant menu just for fun. Now this week in Beijing they're telling people to stop eating dogs. A friend posted this photo yesterday:
"Please refuse to eat dog meat! There's all different kinds of food, but 'friends' are extremely precious."
— The Beijing Loving Animals Foundation
请拒åƒç‹—肉ï¼é£Ÿç‰©å¤šç§å¤šæ ·ï¼Œè€Œâ€œæœ‹å‹â€å¼¥è¶³çè´µ
— 北京爱它>动物公益基金会
If there's a campaign to stop eating dogs, our district in Qingdao has definitely not received the memo. Here's some pictures I just happen to have on hand, taken right in our neighbourhood and at the nearest restaurants:
"Five Spice Dog Meat" 五香狗肉 Spring Festival gift box.
This hotpot restaurant's menu includes fish head meat 鱼头肉, beer duck 啤酒é¸, dog 狗肉, and eel é³é±¼.
At a competing restaurant dog meat tops the hotpot menu 狗肉ç«é"….
These photos can be found in our public China Instagram feed.
Pro Tip! "Dog food" — is that food for your dog (ç‹—ç²®), or your dog for food (狗肉)? You'll probably want to be careful you don't confuse this:
(pet food store)
with this:
(dog meat gift bag from Chinese teacher)
or this:
(dog meat restaurant)
Pro Tip #2! Dog meat is a wintertime food. In the spring and summer it won't be available at many restaurants that usually serve it. Because Chinese medicine. So you'll probably have to wait a while before you get to try any.
On the first glance, it's not immediately obvious why Mainland Chinese would be campaigning to not eat dog, or any other animal. I found some interesting explanations here: China's dog-eating controversy is class warfare
And of course we've had our own dog eating adventures:
- Dead puppies (don't look, Grandma!) – menu included
- "Cats are friends, not food!"
- Obligatory cat eating post
China also has other creative uses for dog, aside from food:
[Update Apr 19]
Dog is more popular around here than I realized. Normally I eat with a group on Friday nights, but everyone had to work overtime tonight. So I was on my own for dinner, and took my time walking around just to see what was available. In five minutes I found five places that serve dog. I'm sure there would have been more but friends called and said they could make it after all so I stopped looking and went to meet them. See if you can find "ç‹—" in each of these pictures:

Augusta Mayor Pro Tem Willie Mays believes that in the long run, history will treat former Augusta mayor Ed McIntyre very well. The longtime Augusta political figure died Saturday at age 71.
As the first black Richmond County commissioner and the first black Augusta mayor, Mr. McIntyre was never bashful about fighting for rights, but he never made it a nasty fight, Mr. Mays said.
"He always took an approach of loving and caring about this city, even to the very end," he said. "Wanting to make a contribution."
In the 1970s and '80s, when Mr. McIntyre was in office, communities - both black and white - needed improvement, Mr. Mays said.
"I think people who remember those days can remember for the first time going from a dirt street or a dirt road that was full of potholes to, for the first time ever, living on a paved street," he said. "There were still situations of toilet facilities being outdoors that he played a major role in terms of public works chairman."
Mr. McIntyre worked at Mays Mortuary when Mr. Mays was a boy. As a teenager, Mr. Mays worked in Mr. McIntyre's campaigns and said he learned a lot.
"Ed had a beautiful voice," Mr. Mays recalled. "He sang with Morehouse College glee club. Ed sometimes would have to sing solo at funerals. Those are things we would reminisce about later on."
Mr. McIntyre sang with Morehouse College groups on occasion, even as late as former Atlanta Mayor Maynard Jackson's funeral last year, Mr. Mays said.
Many other Augustans who knew and worked with Mr. McIntyre through the years recalled their times with him Saturday after learning of his death.
Richmond County School Board member Marion Barnes, who grew up with him and taught school with him at C.T. Walker Elementary School, described him as a great person.
"He was a people person," Mr. Barnes said. "He thought his calling was to help others. That was his main thing in life - to do for other people. He loved his family. He loved his church and he loved politics."
Former Augusta Mayor Charles DeVaney, who became mayor after Mr. McIntyre's conviction on federal bribery and extortion charges and later faced him in the 1990 election for mayor, said they certainly had some differences, but time has blurred the sharp edges.
"Over the past few years, we had a chance to chat very pleasantly," Mr. DeVaney said. "Our last time together was at the dedication of the clock at the center of Broad Street at the old J.B. White building. And we sat together and had a great time. I guess the common thread was we said how differently we would have done things. I think there was a common bond."
The Rev. Paulwyn Boliek, who first met Mr. McIntyre 15 years ago when they served on Augustans Together, a committee to promote race relations, said Mr. McIntyre was one of the moving forces behind the organization.
"He was a very bright guy and had a very creative mind."
Harrell Tiller, who served on the old Richmond County Commission with Mr. McIntyre from 1975-78, said Mr. McIntyre came up with some great ideas for the city.
"He was a fine gentleman," Mr. Tiller said.
Local historian Dr. Jimmy Carter credits Mr. McIntyre with many downtown projects.
"He was a visionary," Dr. Carter said. "Most of the things you see downtown today were out of his mind. Ed was very smart, dynamic and innovative person whose service did not have an opportunity to go to fruition. He could have contributed a lot more if he had been allowed to."
"Ed was one of the greatest visionaries for this community, but never had the opportunity to fulfill it."
- Solomon Walker, longtime friend, college classmate
"He should be honored by having his name on the riverwalk. He loved Augusta and wanted to continue serving Augusta."
- Charles Walker, former state senator
"He was a fine gentleman."
- Harrell Tiller, former county commissioner
"He wanted to make a difference, and he did - for the entire community, Augusta was his home and he wanted it to be the best, and wanted everyone to get along as one."
- Walter Hornsby, former deputy Augusta administrator
On Augustans Together "he was one of the moving forces behind that. He was a very bright guy and had a very creative mind."
- the Rev. Paulwyn Boliek
"Mac was a good person. He was a people person. He thought his calling was to help others."
- Marion Barnes, Richmond County school board
"A lot of the things that I learned about working with people and about leadership came from watching him."
- Willie Mays, city commissioner
"Certainly, I had a great deal of respect for him as a politician, as a community person,"
- Charles DeVaney, former mayor

2. We had a breakfast wedding ceremony as we each love breakfast and it was less expensive. The cost per braid was half, the struggling of the pub was $8000 cheaper than a dinner, and there was no alcohol wanted
When visitors arrived, they had been nice with a map of the title that had the occasions therefore out — a style of the age to come back. First up, a small winery the place rosé and prosecco had been served
Neighborhood: Navy Pier True to its identify, the Crystal Backyard is a one-acre botanical garden thriving beneath the arched ceiling of a six-story glass atrium. Adorned with twinkle lights, fountains and sleek palm timber, it supplies a beautiful outdoor expertise indoors. Due to its location on Chicago's well-known Navy Pier, the venue additionally furnish terrific scene of town skyline, Lake Michigan, the Ferris wheel, and Dock Road. And there's no rental charge to take pleasure in this distinctive coagulation—solely a meals and drinkable minimal
So far as indigence a dj, take into consideration how a lot dancing you take pleasure in doing in your life. Should you find it irresistible, rent any individual to maintain the celebration hopping. Should you don't, I say don't also have a dance floor, just a few environment chime and a few good dialog. This will lower down in your liquor finances too as individuals typically get drunk to allow them to have enjoyable dancing and never really feel larboard out. the good wedding ceremony I went to was nipper amicable, so versus loopy rooster dances stuffed with drunken bafoons, they'd board video games as heart items and a Artwork schedule. The had been video games from their very own assortment so it was discount, and everybody thought it was extremely artistic
As a substitute of spending boatloads of cash on flowers that may pine briefly after the reception, hold it uncompounded however aesthetic — as an example, a single rose for every bridesmaid and a really slender bouquet for the bride. Should you wit somebody with a rose shrub, you may assuredly compel your personal bouquets the day earlier than the ceremony by reducing the roses your self and relish away the thorns
Don't enterprise they would be the most cost-effective however value as a lot as doable based mostly in your sectional lots's deli, bakehouse, and prepared meals choices. Even when they don't have bigger unfold marketed, trustworthy go in throughout a sluggish interval and ask the deli supervisor. A few of it might be fairly cheap and might help offset potlucks or family ready meals
Mason jars are maybe probably the most versatile objects you will discover in your scullery, or in your pantry for that matter. Not solely are you able to flip them into night time time candles or lanterns, or fill them up with coloured sand and use them as decorations, however you can even switch them into stylish, classic juice containers in your outdoor wedding ceremony reception. How dispassionate is that?! All you want is three or 4 giant, two-liter mason jars the place you may retailer your lemonade or your pure shake or smoothie, in the course of the day. Nevertheless, make safe so as to add loads of ice to these jars as nicely, as pure juices are inclined to oxygenate significantly devoted within the presence of warmth. These jars are each aesthetically nice and nice for decorating your outdoor wedding ceremony venue, so you need to positively put them in your listing
It is a lovely inclination, however I want so many weren't from California. Perhaps there may very well be future posts of 50 lovely venues with one per scenario. Or 10-20 prettiest from every area (southeast, northeast, Center West, and many others.) I'd be pleased to assist with the analysis and southeast listing particularly. All the time love GWS!!
I can't anticipate persons are bashing the ebook intention. I've been in a couple of weddings, I've gotten 3 cash clips (woo), a flask (search), and a reclining outdoor chair (by far my favourite). I'd love a significant ebook over some violence engraved metallic bounty. I think about it now: All of your groomsmen will sooner or later pull out that cash clip concurrently we go to pay the tab and cease to memory about your wedding ceremony. Proper
For Angela, for such a brief wedding ceremony, I'd advocate dinner (or brunch!) at a restaurant the place you may substitute a personal or semi-private house. The ceremony may very well be both Metropolis Corridor or a reasonably spot like a park. Should you go the park route and wish to save much more, you might have a tour reception and both lease a single leisure or sit on tablecloths/blankets
As different individuals have pret. quoth, discover the one factor you'll worth most helter-skelter your wedding ceremony and spend your cash there. I've been within the images trade in a single road or one other for a few years (from operation in photograph labs and as a photographer) and can't even start to depend the variety of new brides I've talked to who've introduced me their horrible negatives and digital thread begging me to repair them in some way. All of them mentioned that they had been making an attempt to chop prices and execs had been "too lavish". How a lot worth do you place in your reminiscences? There's a purpose a upside (whether or not it's a photographer, a dj, or what have you ever) prices extra. They know what they're doing, and can do it proper
I just lately learn a publish by one other blogger who had simply gotten married. They spent about 6 hours draught the day & inviting a couple of shut mates/family to the occasion. Married at metropolis entry with a meal subsequent at a favourite restaurant, with the group slender sufficient that they only wanted a reservation. She had already purchased the costume, which was a reasonably costume off the destruction (not a marriage costume per se). No wedding ceremony flowers. They delineation to throw a giant celebration for a a lot bigger group of mates/family latter within the yr in lieu of a reception
As you're apply brainstorming cheap wedding ceremony concepts, you need to get your closest mates and family concerned with the main points. Very often, they'll have unexpectedly good concepts that may prevent chink and energy.

Michelle Pfeiffer (On actress Brittany Snow, who played her teen daughter in the 2007 film "Hairspray"): I absolutely loved working with her, and I grew so fond of her that I wanted to stick her in my suitcase and take her home with me. She is just darling.
Michelle Pfeiffer: I was considered the black sheep of the family,
Neighbors didn't want their kids playing with me.
Michelle Pfeiffer: I'm afraid to be alone, I'm afraid not to be alone. I'm afraid of what I am, what I'm not, what I might become, what I might never become.

Michelle Pfeiffer (On her failed marriage to Peter Horton): I was 22. For me it was too young. I think my husband and I were both too young, and as we started growing up our needs changed. We've always been close, even up to the separation, which was very difficult on both of us because we have never stopped caring for eachother. We didn't have an angry breakup - he even helped me pack my car. It wasn't bitter, and we talked every day on the phone.

I've seen some amazing plastic surgery, but who knows if that's what you'll get. There are some freakish things going on right now.

The 'Gen Y Can't I Get a Job' infographic by the Adescco blog looks at why in America there are so many capable, yet jobless, graduates.
According to Adecco's survey, this year alone 1.5 million students will graduate looking to start full-time employment in their fields. Sadly, 65% of workplace directors don't think university grads are ready for full-time employment. Adecco uses a blue, orange and green color schema, large bubbly fonts, educational facts and helpful images to alert jobless graduates with plenty of valuable tips to help them find and secure full-time employment in their field.
With tips on what to do during an interview—prepping and maintaining eye contact—and what to avoid—showing off tattoos and dressing inappropriately—Adecco hopes the 'Gen Y Can't I Get a Job' will help to greatly reduce the number of 53% of jobless graduates.

My sister recently moved and had to decide if she would keep all of her spices in the cupboard, like at her old house, or try something new. She wanted to keep her kitchen counters clutter-free, while also making effective use of space. It was an easy decision once she saw the layout of her new kitchen.
Her upper cupboard space was limited near her stove, and she and her husband decided it would be more practical to keep the spices near to where they would do most of their food prep. So they decided that two top drawers in their kitchen island would be ideal.
It's always very interesting to see how homes are organized, especially kitchen drawers and cupboards!
To easily organize your spices in the same manner, here are the items she used:
– Spice Jars
OR you could always purchase premade labels, like these.
Clear Round Spice Pantry Labels
I think that I will buy her a set of these Spice Measuring Spoons to keep in her new spice drawers! That will truly complete the drawer organization and will be very convenient when she is prepping food.
Linking up to some of these Blog Hops!

Two anonymous letters have been sent to police investigating the death of a woman found stabbed to death at her cottage.
Betty Yates, 77, was found with stab wounds to the neck in her cottage in Bewdley, Worcestershire, on 4 January.
Police say the letters, received this week, contain information which has opened up potential new lines of inquiry and are urging the authors to contact them.
Officers also want to hear from a man who was seen walking along a lane close to the cottage on the night of 2 January. The man is described as white, in his 20s, and was wearing a thigh-length dark coloured jacket.
Police stressed, however, that the sighting was one of many current lines of inquiry they were following up.
Yates was found stabbed to death at the foot of her stairs. The retired schoolteacher had also been attacked with one of her own walking sticks, police said. It is believed she was killed on the evening of 2 January.
Search teams have combed surrounding fields and woodland for clues.
Detective Chief Inspector Neil Jamieson, who is leading the murder inquiry, said: "Although those searches have been completed there is still a lot of forensic work ongoing at the cottage itself and that will continue for some time. We also continue to study CCTV.
"It is now more than a fortnight since Mrs Yates was found murdered but information is still coming in from members of the public through a variety of sources.
"In the last few days alone we have had several new sightings of considerable interest reported to us and those are being followed up."
He added: "This was a vicious and cruel attack on a pensioner who was living alone and unable to defend herself. Although such crimes are fortunately extremely rare it has obviously shocked the local community and everyone involved.
"We will not rest until we have got to the bottom of this and we are confident someone out there has some idea who has done this and why. I would appeal again for them to get in touch and tell us."
Anyone with information is urged to call the police on 0300 333 3000, or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

Extra health insurance well worth price
AT this time of year, the purchase of longterm insurance for those planning to be away for much of the remainder of the winter season is common.
There are frequent but similar questions asked about the advisability of different kinds of coverage, including whether to carry insurance at all, counting on Manitoba Health to cover any number of out-of-country occurrences.
I hope the following answer to a reader will satisfy a number of concerns readers have expressed. QUESTION: I hope you can help clear up the confusing advice we have been receiving about travel medical insurance. For the first time, we will be staying for several months in Mexico.
We are staying for four months, so wanted to purchase coverage for the whole period.
However, we were told that coverage for medical insurance was only available on one-month, fourmonth or six-month plans.
We have also been told, including by someone from Manitoba Health, that we don't even need to purchase extra coverage as long as we go to a Mexican hospital and not an American one.
Several people who travel yearly to Mexico confirmed that extended coverage is not needed and they have the experience to prove it.
They have submitted bills to Manitoba Health and been reimbursed when they submitted receipts, even though they had not bought extended coverage.
With all the horror stories we hear about people going bankrupt after being sick in other countries, we are very confused.
Can you give any advice?
ANSWER: Firstly, you should have no problem in getting medical insurance for the entire time you are away. A number of travel-insurance providers such as Travel Guard, which has a large presence in Manitoba, sell medical insurance that Snowbirds frequently purchase for various lengths of time.
Those aged up 60 can get medical insurance for an entire year. If the person is 60-83 years old, he or she will have to fill out a medical questionnaire, and the maximum number of days they can be covered is 183 days. Six-month purchases are common.
Insofar as Manitoba Health is concerned, I don't know the nature of your discussion, but the department's website at http://www.gov.mb.ca/health/ guide/3.html is clear.
Directly quoted from the site, they state: "If you are visiting another country, you may be responsible for paying the costs of emergency medical care. We highly recommend that you buy travel health insurance from an insurance company before you leave."
While you can be reimbursed up to the maximum of what Manitoba Health covers, they also have criteria that must be followed for that reimbursement to be acceptable.
They warn: "Not all services or facilities outside Manitoba are eligible for payment from Manitoba Health."
However, if those services or facilities are eligible, you will have to pay all costs to your outof-country providers directly, then apply for reimbursement upon your return. Payment can often take some time as they go through their checking processes.
Once you return, you need to send original receipts for any monies for which you are applying. If your claim is approved, you will be reimbursed.
However, Manitoba Health warns that what you receive may not be as much as you paid for the following reasons:
"When Manitobans are temporarily away from Canada for reasons such as travelling, working or attending university, Manitoba Health covers emergency medical care at the same rates that are paid in Manitoba:
Doctor's bills — covered at the same rates paid to Manitoba doctors;
Hospital bills — If you are admitted to hospital because of an emergency situation, Manitoba will pay between $280 and $570 Cdn a day, depending on the size of the hospital;
Emergency-room or outpatient visit — covered up to $100 Canadian a visit;
Nurse-practitioner, midwife or physician-assistant bills are not covered by insured benefits if you are outside Manitoba.
The costs in other countries can be significantly higher than what Manitoba Health pays. You pay the difference. If you're planning to go out of the country, consider getting extra private health insurance. The cost of returning home to Canada after receiving emergency medical care is not covered."
I, too, strongly urge you to find coverage over and above taking a chance on what you might get back from Manitoba Health.
We have seen too many of those horror stories you speak about from people who did not act responsibly before leaving and found they created significant financial problems for themselves and their families.
One the other end of the scale, I know of at least one situation of an insurance policy we were involved in that ended up paying close to $400,000 in payments to U.S. hospitals and doctors.
Although this may be an extreme case, it can happen to anyone, and the risk is just not worth taking.
I have significant empathy for those senior citizens who still love to travel but find the cost of insurance coverage discouraging. It is still such a small percentage of the trips they take and the enjoyment they gain to justify not making the insurance investment. Forward your travel questions to firstname.lastname@example.com.

I was going through my wardrobe today looking at possible combinations to wear on my birthday party this Saturday. Whilst sifting I decided I would be going with a chunky cardigan, t shirt, jeans and probably trainers (Unimaginative I know). However looking at my t-shirts I have about 5 white t-shirts, a few black and one blue. I realised that there isn't much of a selection to choose from and there is nothing that I can see that will team up with a navy cardigan aside from a plain white t.
Onto the reason why I made this thread, how do you correctly pair t shirts with the rest of your outfit. I would appreciate a rule of some sort or even an article which helps with my predicament.
Also, here is how my outfit will roughly look like, you can give suggestions if you want. Every little helps :p. (I am sorry for all the fashion faux pas you will see, it just the way I roll B))

I just donated with friends from work. While it was not the first time that I have donated, it was the first time for two of us. One, was in and out in near record time...the other learned why hydrating and a good breakfast are essential! LOL...however, even after a "unique" experience, she said it wasn't as bad as she thought and looks forward to their return next time.

To: email@example.com
Subject: Help!!!
I downloaded the upgrade, and when I opened the program all my records/contacts/partners and entries were GONE. How do I get them back?
I assumed the upgrade would automatically save all my existing DM entries.
I had ALL of 2006 in there and am panicked that it's all gone for good.
What do I do?
Are you finding yourself in that situation?
First of all, don't panic! Your data is almost certainly still there.
Depending on how you downloaded and installed the update, there is a good chance that the new update simply installed into a different directory than you were using before and it can't find your older data set.
So, here's how to fix it.
First of all, look at the shortcut that you are using to start the DM. Right click on that and choose properties. Let's find out where the new version of the Donor Manager is installed.
You should get a window that looks something like this:
Now, that tells me that my copy of the Donor Manager is running from c:\donor5.
Now, some people install the donor manager there ... in c:\donor5. Other times people install it in c:\program files\donor manager. That would look like this:
I'll bet you have 2 copies of the donor manager installed ... one copy in each of those locations.
So. Try this. Find the OLD copy of the Donor Manager. Using Windows Explorer or "My Computer" navigate around the folders until you find the other, old copy. You'll know it is the older copy because if you double click the program "donor.exe" in that folder, it will start the program with all of your data in it!
For example, double click this file to start the donor manager in c:\donor5
But, double click this file to start the copy of the program in c:\program files\donor manager
So, we just have to figure out which one has your "live data".
Once you find the live data, then use the "Pack and Go" routine to make a copy of your data file that you can then transfer to the other, newer copy of the donor manager.
I'd say put the pack and go file onto your desktop so you can easily find it in the next step.
Now, once you have made a pack and go file, then quit the old version of the donor manager, and start up the newer version.
Then, select pack and go again, but this time, select the second option:
Point it to the data file that you just made (and saved on your desktop) and it should bring that data in, and you will be all set to go!
Once you are sure where your CURRENT donor manager data set is (and that you have it carefully backed up), you will probably want to delete that older donor manager installation so you don't risk keeping two, possibly out of synch installations of the program on your computer.
Now, that is a sure prescription for frustration!
A note about using pack and go for backups:
The pack and go is so quick and easy to use that I use it now for my backups. In fact, I e-mail a copy of my pack and go file to my gmail account (which I use for online backups) so I'll always have an off-site copy of my donor data.
Here's an article I wrote about that: http://www.donormanager.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=234
I hope that helps. The key thing to remember is that if you start up the Donor Manager and it can't seem to find your data, don't panic! I'll be glad to help you get things fixed up.
And, you are making regular backups, aren't you ? !

text: Wooohoo baby!! Mmmmm pancake (Shrove tuesday for those who prefer official titles) Shrove Tuesday, the eve of Lent — also known as Mardi Gras (literally "fat Tuesday" in French), Carnival (from the Latin for "farewell to the flesh"), and Fasnacht (the Germanic "night of the fast") — is celebrated across the world with riotous merrymaking and feasting. While Brazilians samba in the streets of Rio, and New Orleans throws its most famous party of the year, the English celebrate with Pancake Tuesday. It may seem an unlikely last indulgence, but pancakes use up rich ingredients like butter and eggs from the larder before the pious Lenten fast. Families gather for sweet and savory pancake suppers, and housewives still compete in the peculiar tradition of donning their aprons and racing each other holding pancake-filled skillets. Strict rules require that each contestant successfully toss and flip her pancakes into the air at least three times before crossing the finish line.

Maryland Lawyers Launch Initiative to Fight Distracted Driving by Teens: Janet, Jenner and Suggs, LCC
Apr 01, 2014, 11:52 ET from Janet, Jenner and Suggs, LCC
BALTIMORE, April 1, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Attorneys in Maryland have launched a one-year initiative to help lower the death and injury toll involving distracted teen drivers, announced Elisha Hawk, attorney with Janet, Jenner & Suggs.
Hawk said lawyers with the Maryland Association for Justice have begun a year-long partnership with the End Distracted Driving | Student Awareness Campaign to raise awareness of distracted driving risks among high school students throughout the state. Hawk is Parliamentarian and Chair of the New Lawyers Section for Maryland Association of Justice, the organization that is spearheading the effort in Maryland.
The first training session for volunteers is scheduled for 5 pm, Friday, April 4, at the law offices of Janet, Jenner & Suggs, 1777 Reisterstown Road, Suite 165, Pikesville, MD 21208.
"We want to reach students now, before they've hurt or killed someone. We want to prevent the accidents before they happen," said Hawk, who brought the idea of the program to MAJ after attending a presentation by Joel Feldman last year at a dinner for Massachusetts Trial Lawyers.
She said she was moved by the presentation, and by Feldman's commitment to the cause after tragically losing his daughter. Casey Feldman was just 21 years old when she was struck and killed by a distracted driver while crossing the street in a crosswalk.
"Our goal is to present the program in as many Maryland schools as we can over the next year using our members and to hopefully make a real difference in addressing this growing danger, particularly among young drivers," she added.
The 70-minute training session will teach attorneys how to present End Distracted Driving materials in schools. Although driving while on a cell phone is against the law in Maryland, other distractions – such as texting, eating, drinking and putting on makeup—are just as dangerous. Attorneys interested in becoming presenters, and schools interested in scheduling a speaker, should contact Elisha Hawk at firstname.lastname@example.com or Joel Feldman at email@example.com.
A bill called "Jake's Law" to increase penalties for distracted driving has been passed by both the Maryland House and Senate and is awaiting an agreement on a joint bill. The law is named for Jake Owen, a five-year-old Maryland child who was killed in a 2011 crash involving distracted driving.

I bought some LED tail lights for my Jeep YJ. Doesn't seem like it would be hard to wire up, but after hours, I can't get it. If I connect just one wire for the parking lights, it works fine. I connect the brake wire the lights get bright no matter if the brake pedal is pressed or not. If I connect just the brake light it works correctly. For some reason connect the brake wire and parking lights it looks like the brake lights are on all the time.
have the same problem?

Black Widow-------
Full Name: Natasha Romanoff
Aliases: Black Widow, Natalia Alianovna Romanova; Natasha Romanova; hundreds of others originating from different countries.
Alignment: Good
Age: 28
Height: 5'7"
Weight: 131 lbs.
Eyes: Green
Hair: Red
Group Affiliation: S.H.I.E.L.D.
Base of Operations: The Helicarrier (when not in action stationed outside of NYC)
Identity status: Classified; Publicly Unknown
Occupation: Licensed S.H.I.E.L.D. Operative
Education: Unknown; intensive espionage training from Red Room Academy
Having been trained and condition since she was a child as a spy, Natasha is programed to be deceptive and manipulative down to her core. She's an expert at covert operations and various forms of espionage with include (but are not limited to smile stealth, undercover reassignment (being a mole,) and advanced interrogation techniques. She is also trained in several forms of unarmed combat as well as varying firearm protocols. Enchanced physical durability, slowed aging, and augmented immune system are also present from her governmental treatments.
Powers and Weapons:
Beside her training as a spy, Natasha also carries the Widows Bite (gauntlets), Glock 26s x2, and varying explosives and high-powered firearms depending on mission perimeters.
Life for Natasha Romanov was like a dream- a loving family, wonderful home, and an aspiring career in the ballet. Given those prospects, it was hard to leave it all behind for her country, but since It and It's people had given her so much, she would gladly do the same in return. Having been spotted by agents during a recital for her physique and mobility, the KGB had asked her to participate in an aptitude test for gifted teens, one which would offer them a chance to server their country, protect it from the Western tradition, and strive towards a world full of peace and prosperity for all citizens. She pass the tests, and agreed to their terms to protect and better her Motherland. What followed was a grueling training process, all of which seemed like a blur. She took to espionage as if she was born for it. It wasn't long until she was out on the field, given the code name Black Widow for her manipulative and deadly nature. She went where her country needed her; be it assassination, interrogation, being a mole or a combatant, Natasha proved time and time again to be one of the U.S.S.R.'s most valuable operatives in their war against the West. However, there is no such thing as a perfect agent, and in Natasha's case that was true.
On a mission to sabotage several of America's finest heroes, Natasha was taken into custody by S.H.I.E.L.D. to be interrogated and detained for her criminal acts. Day in an out, they used the same skills she had acquired to break her will, to crush her love for her country, but she wouldn't budge. Finally, after torturous beatings, mind games, and mental exhaustion, the enemy did the one thing she hadn't expected, they talked to her. Of course, she didn't reply, didn't say one word about herself, yet these treacherous men knew everything about her.. Her parents, her life, even down to the breed of her first dog. The more they spoke, the more confused she became. Finally, as the last bits were read, the man before her threw down the dossier for her to read from a place called Red Room Academy. It was then Natasha's dream life unraveled before her eyes. She had no home, no dog, no ballet career, and no parents, the war had even been brought to a close- since childhood she had always been alone, confined to a single room and conditioned like a machine both mentally and physically, even augments with chems like a lab rat. She had killed, maimed, and tortured for no moral reason other than to serve a country who's goals for peace and prosperity were as hollow as the life they had given her. In bitter defeat, Natasha defected from the country she called home to the United States in hopes of finally working for the peace and prosperity she had been promised, now, however, it was not for a country but her own peace of mind.
It's been four years since the veil has been lifted, and Natasha has found a home at S.H.I.E.L.D as a intelligence operative and licensed super hero. Though she is still regarded as a possible threat and a villain by dossier, she has become known as a hero by media standards and those she works with.

Full Moon Rising
This image was painted using some of Karen Bonaker's Painter 2016 Holiday brushes that she is graciously giving away to us Corel Painter lovers! I have to be honest and say I had to tweak the brushes quite a bit to get the correct effect (in her downloaded brush she had the Damping set to 60%, not 33% like the default in the Options Bar) – mainly changed in the Liquid Ink panel the Ink Type to Ink Plus Color from Ink Only and tried different settings for the various slider like the Volume and Jitter sliders. Also unchecked Continuous Time Deposition box and set the Boost to 38%. Went into the Particles-Common panel and tried different settings for the Chaos, Smoothness and Damping sliders. Several brushes were created using different settings and I think I finally got some decent trees! A background I had created in Painter was added behind the image. The image was saved as a psd file and taken into Photoshop where I got this night effect – set an adjustment curve to the Negative (RGB) preset. The moon was stamped in using Fantasy Brushes Moon 2 brush. Did a lot of manipulation to get the moon to look correct. Some clone clean up and that was it. Lots of fun to do and I wish to thank Karen for always giving us the most fun brushes during the holidays!…..Digital Lady Syd

- n. Plural form of rumpus.
Sorry, no etymologies found.
"rumpuses,"'_yor_ temper woan't mouldy wi keepin.'
Stir in that business with then England rugby captain Martin Johnson and the president of Ireland, some feisty business in the Stanley Cup involving the Pittsburg Penguins and repeated handshake rumpuses in Spain's El Clásico, and I think we can agree that what we have here is a worldwide palmdemic.
Consign the handshake to history – or risk a sporting palmdemic | Harry Pearson
However, be that as it may, there is always one rogue pundit or questionable figure that garners swaths of attention from the media by spinning unambiguously immaterial issues into equally ridiculous media rumpuses by stating the exact opposite of what the majority rightly know to be true.
Rip Empson: Americans Wish Limbaugh Would Take a Vacation to Spain, Mars
In many towns and cities, these same homes sit on heaving piles of maggots, rumpuses of rats, squealing mice and all sorts of other creeping things.
I always have it seems forced upon me and I have trained myself to wake up often so that I do not cause any major accidents or accidental rumpuses.
This keeps pairs together in all but the wildest rumpuses.
We went to lunch at the presidential palace, the Casa Rosada, and Cal Robert Lowell promptly insulted the general, who was in fact about to be president of Argentina, and started one of the many diplomatic rumpuses he caused on that trip.
His temper seemed to be in a very ragged condition to-day, and he and Lacey, who played at left tackle on the first, got into several rumpuses in which hands were used in a manner not countenanced by the rules of football.
Nora said that nurse spoiled them, and in a sort of way took their part against her, while nurse said Nora was too fond of "ordering," and that she nagged them; so there were rumpuses there sometimes.
Now I understand your amazement and I will presume to enlighten you that all those quarrels, rumpuses, intrigues, envies, and even fights are nothing but nerves, nerves, nerves!

Half of graduates could have their student loans written off because they will not earn enough to repay them.
The government has admitted that students who borrow money to complete their courses will not begin to pay back money until they earn £21,000. Minister David Willetts said: "Around half of all borrowers will have some part of their loan written off."

I'm in charge of managing our company blogs, which aren't hosted on WP, but I don't know where else to go with this, since all my work has been through the WP admin dashboard.
We have several blogs that were set up by a previous employee:
with the latter being the more up to date, current one. I'd like to just have the old address redirect to the new one, so that anytime someone types in the URL or goes there from a link somewhere, they go to bloomin.com/blog.
I thought I was doing this from the bloominpromotions.com/blog/wp-admin dashboard, but as soon as i hit "save changes", I was logged out.
Now, whenever I go to http://www.bloominpromotions.com/blog/wp-admin, it automatically redirects to http://www.bloomin.com/wp-admin. I can't access the back end/dashboard controls for the old blog.
Any ideas? Thanks.

What Client's Say
Wanted to thank Diana for a great experience. I got my hair fixed by Diana and she spent time with me and inspired me to move out of the 80's and do something different. Not in a pushy way, she just explained my options, asked me what I wanted and helped me see new things. It was truly a great experience and I recommend her talents to anyone who wants to be heard and helped with their hair. I also love the color. Thanks Diana
Finding a great hair stylist, especially when your livelihood is in front of the camera, is such a personal process. I'm glad I've found Diana as sitting in her chair is like visiting with a good friend who has a wealth of knowledge to share. She's open to feedback, and willing to offer (but not impose) her honest opinion. Diana has taken the time to understand my profession and personal style so that she only offers suggestions that really suit me.
Diana is absolutely amazing! I have been living in Vancouver for almost 2 years and have had an extremely hard time finding a hairdresser that, understands what I want and what I need as a hair cut,color and style to suit my lifestyle. I was really hoping Diana could give me that "look at that girl, she has red hair" look,I now have vibrant red hair and have so many compliments on it!I will be going to Diana from now on!
Diana has a great eye and an infectious lust for life.These go hand in hand because not only does she do the best job I have ever had done on my hair, she is a pleasure to be around: our "sessions" are like meeting a girlfriend for coffee, with the added bonus of fantastic hair at the end. In particular, Diana has gone above and beyond using her creativity and skill to manipulate my mane into solid, yet jaw-dropping and photogenic, styles for my flamenco shows.
I just wanted you to know that this is THE best haircut I've ever had…You made me feel brand new Lovely! Blessed to know you 🙂

The purpose of financial assistance
programs is to assist undergraduate and graduate students who would be unable
to attend college due to lack of money. Financial aid available for Coastal
students is derived from federal and state government sources such as grants,
work-study, loans, scholarships, and Veterans Administration Benefits. Additional
scholarships are provided by Coastal Carolina University, along with other
funds available through private and public sources. The Office of Financial
Aid, Scholarships and Veteran Affairs is the source of information regarding
these programs.
To determine whether or not a student
is eligible for federal student financial aid programs, the student and his/her
family must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid by April
1 each year for priority consideration. The University expects students and
their families to share primary responsibility to meet the costs of college.
Students under the age of twenty-four are considered to be dependent on their
parents unless conclusive evidence of independence from parental support is
received and approved by the Office of Financial Aid, Scholarships and Veteran
Affairs. Attending graduate school is considered as evidence of independence.
In order to participate in federal
student financial aid programs, Coastal Carolina University is required by
federal regulation to maintain a financial aid office that coordinates the
delivery of all funds from all sources to students. All students who receive
aid in addition to federal student financial aid are required to report the
amount and source to the Financial Aid Office by August 1 each year. Students
must complete an application for financial aid every year.
Coastal supports
the following principles:
As applicants' financial aid files
are completed, funds are awarded and the students are notified by mail. A
complete application for financial aid consists of a processed needs analysis
document, loan applications, and other documents requested for verification.
Eligible veterans can receive assistance
by applying for educational benefits through Coastal's Veteran Affairs Office.
The U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs is the only agency that can determine
eligibility for and award this benefit. You can determine if you are eligible
by calling the VA Regional Office at 1-888-442-4551. You must then contact
Coastal's Veteran Affairs Office to obtain the appropriate forms for certification.
Students receiving VA educational
benefits are expected to maintain satisfactory progress towards a degree.
Normal standards of progress, as stated in the Catalog, are applicable to
VA students. Veterans or eligible persons must take courses that are essential
to their degree program and cannot receive VA benefits for courses that are
not essential to their program of study, or for repeating courses in which
they have earned a satisfactory grade, or for courses which are graded on
a Pass-Fail basis. To receive benefits for an Independent Study, approval
must be obtained from the S.C. Commission on Higher Education prior to certification
for the term.
Once enrollment has been certified,
the VA student is responsible for reporting any updates or changes to his/her
enrollment status to the Office of Financial Aid, Scholarships and Veteran
Affairs. This includes the dropping and/or adding of classes and complete
withdrawal from the University. Failure to do so may result in the termination
of benefits and possibly an overpayment situation.
The following is a synopsis of VA
Program Chapters:
Chapter 30: The Montgomery G.I.

The Federal Carl D. Perkins Loan
is a low interest loan to assist you in paying for your education. You may
be eligible to borrow up to $6,000 a year. As a student, you pay no interest
on the loan while attending school at least half time. The interest rate is
5 percent during the repayment period which begins 9 months after you leave
college or cease being enrolled as at least a half-time student. These funds
are limited and based on need.
To determine if you are eligible
you must complete:
* Free Application for Federal Student
Aid (FAFSA)
Federal Stafford
Loans (FFEL)
The Federal Stafford Loan is a
low interest college loan made by a lender, credit union, or savings and loan
association. These loans are insured by either the federal government or a
state guarantee agency. The interest rate is variable with a 8.25% cap. For
the 2002-2003 academic year, the rate was 3.46 percent.
You may be eligible to borrow up
to the cost of attendance with a $18,500 maximum. Of this amount, only $8,500
may be subsidized (no interest is charged until repayment) and the difference
will be unsubsidized (interest is charged from the time of disbursement until
it is paid in full). The government will advise as to how much each category
a student will be eligible for. A graduate student may borrow up to $138,500.
The graduate debt limit includes any Stafford Loans received for undergraduate
study. These loans have a six-month grace period before repayment begins.
Applications are available in Coastal's
Office of Financial Aid, Scholarships and Veteran Affairs. To determine if
you are eligible you must complete:
* Application and Master Promissory
Note for Federal Stafford Loans
* Entrance Loan Counseling
The South Carolina Teachers Loan
Program was established by the State of South Carolina through the Education
Improvement Act of 1984 to attract talented and qualified students to the
teaching profession. This loan is cancelled by teaching in South Carolina
public schools in an area of critical need.
The loan is cancelled at the rate
of 20 percent for each full year of teaching in a critical subject or a critical
geographic area within South Carolina. If you teach in both a critical subject
and geographic area, your loan will be cancelled at the rate of 33 1/3 percent
for each year of full-time teaching. The subject areas deemed critical at
the time you apply will be honored when you begin teaching; critical geographic
areas must be deemed critical at the time of your employment. If you decide
not to teach, the interest rate on the loan is a variable rate, not to exceed
10.25 percent.
Graduate students may borrow up
to $5,000 per year. This loan has a June 1 deadline and the funds are limited.

Work Opportunities
There are two student employment
programs at Coastal Carolina. They are the Federal Work Study Program (FWSP)
and the Institutional Employment Program (IEP).
Federal Work Study Program (FWSP)
The Federal Work Study program
is a federal student aid program that provides part-time jobs on campus for
eligible students. Students may work up to 20 hours a week when classes are
in session and up to 37.5 hours with the Office of Financial Aid's approval
during times when classes are not in session up to an authorized amount of
wages. Approximately 150 students are approved for work each semester. Students
should seek placement in available jobs through the Career Services Office
in the Prince Building.
Institutional Employment Program
The Institutional Employment Program
is a Coastal Carolina program that provides part-time jobs on campus for students
who may or may not have financial need. There is no application for this program.
Students should seek placement in available jobs through the Career Services
Office in the Prince Building.
Satisfactory Academic Progress
Institutions participating in Title
IV federal financial aid programs are required by the United States Department
of Education to establish institutional policies which define satisfactory
academic progress. All students who receive federal financial aid at Coastal
Carolina University are required to maintain satisfactory progress toward
completion of their programs of study.
A student is considered to be making
satisfactory academic progress if the student satisfies all of the following:
Transfer students will be considered
to be making satisfactory academic progress for financial aid at the time
of enrollment unless the total number of hours attempted at all graduate schools
exceeds the equivalent of 60 hours.
If a student's ability to meet
these standards is affected by extenuating circumstances, he/she may appeal
this determination. Information concerning the appeals process is available
in the Office of Financial Aid.
Students are academically and financially
responsible for their course registration and must terminate enrollment in
classes which they do not intend to complete. To drop a course, the student
must complete a Registration form available from their adviser. To completely
withdraw, the student must complete a University Semester Withdrawal form
available from the Office of the Registrar. Refund refers to the amount of
money used to pay institutional charges that the institution must return to
the student and/or to the financial aid programs after the student has withdrawn
or dropped courses. Repayment refers to the amount of any cash disbursement
made to the student that the student must repay to the school after the student
has withdrawn or dropped courses. For students who receive Title IV Federal
funds, a copy of the Return of Title IV Funds Policy worksheet is available
in either the Office of Financial Aid or the Bursar's Office. The student
should refer to the Fees and Expenses section of this catalog for specific
refund schedules.
Policy for Withdrawal Refunds
Students who withdraw from the
institution will be given a refund on the basis of either 1) University refund
calculation (students who do not receive Title IV Federal Financial Aid),
or 2) University refund calculation and Return of Title IV Funds Policy (students
who receive Title IV Federal Financial Aid). Both refund calculations conform
to federal regulations set forth by the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended
by the Higher Education Amendments of 1998 (Public Law 105-244 approved on
November 1, 1999).
The Return of Title IV Federal
Funds Policy applies only to students at the University who are recipients
of Title IV Federal Financial Aid. A copy of the Return of Title IV Funds
Policy worksheet is available in either the Office of Financial Aid or the
Bursar's Office. The University policy applies to all other students who withdraw
from the institution.
The refund schedules are published
in the Master Schedule of Classes for each semester. Any financial aid for
which the student was eligible prior to withdrawal, but which has not been
disbursed, will be cancelled and returned to the source.
Distribution of Refunds/Return
of Funds
If a student receives Title IV
(federal) funds from more than one source, the University will distribute
the refund based on the following mandated priorities:
1) Unsubsidized FFEL/Direct Stafford
2) Subsidized FFEL/Direct Stafford
3) Perkins Loan
4) Other Title IV programs
Repayments for Withdrawals
Repayment refers to the amount
of any cash disbursement made to the student that the student must repay to
the school after the student has withdrawn. Any student who owes a repayment
will be billed by Coastal Carolina University's Bursar's Office, and have
a hold placed on the academic record which prohibits graduating, obtaining
a transcript, or registering for classes. The student is also prohibited from
receipt of any further disbursement of Title IV aid at any institution.
Coastal Carolina University offers
a limited number of scholarships which are awarded to eligible students who
are accepted to the University. To apply or be considered for scholarships
as a new or continuing student you must be admitted to Coastal Carolina University
and submit the completed Application for Graduate Scholarships, if required,
by March 1. As there are a limited number of awards available, not all students
who meet the minimum criteria will be awarded a scholarship.
The total of all scholarships and
financial aid awards cannot exceed the cost of attendance as determined by
the Office of Financial Aid, Scholarships and Veteran Affairs. Scholarship
award amounts may vary each year dependent on donor contribution. The awarding
of all scholarships is dependent upon available funding.

Telephone Availability for Residential Students
As was publicized on the UCSC Housing web site throughout the spring and summer of 2012, UCSC is in the process of upgrading its Information Technology (IT) services for students on campus. As part of these efforts the campus removed the underutilized and outdated landline phones in students' rooms and installed new landline phones in common areas located throughout UCSC's residential communities. The phones are available for any residential student to use to make or receive calls. For long-distance/toll calls, a calling card is needed.
Should a student's family need to contact a student, it is important that they have current contact information. If a student's cell phone is not functional or a student does not have a cell phone and a situation is urgent, there are alternative contact methods:
To report an emergency, or a health/safety issue regarding a student resident:
- Family/guardian should contact the Campus Police Department at (831) 459-2231.
To contact a residential student regarding an urgent matter:
- 8am - 5pm: Family/guardian should contact the student's residential community housing office.
- 5pm - 8am: Family/guardian should contact the Campus Police Department at (831) 459-2231.

About Us
Direct2Drive puts up their Defense Grid, prints money
posted: 3/23/2009 11:46:00 PM
More On:
As Direct2Drive's top 10 sales for the week of March 15 - 21 prove, tower defense games are all the hotness. Well, if you put it on sale for $10, that is. And with that sale,
Defense Grid: The Awakening
pushed its way to the number one spot last week, edging out
Command & Conquer Red Alert 3: Uprising
. Another oldie but goodie that moved into the number six spot was
Rome: Total War Gold Edition
. But my biggest (and most pleasant) surprise on this list was
The Path
coming in at number eight.
The Path
is a modernized tale of psychological horror that might've once gone by the name of Little Red Riding Hood. Developed by Tale of Tales, these are the same folks that put together the
brilliantly understated
The Graveyard
. I'm looking forward to traversing
The Path
myself. Here's the full list:
Defense Grid: The Awakenening
Command and Conquer Red Alert 3: Uprising
Tom Clancy's HAWX
Men of War
Empire: Total War
Rome: Total War Gold Edition
Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II
The Path
World in Conflict: Soviet Assault Expansion
Final Fantasy XI Vana'diel Collection 2008
Its refreshing to see a list (
list) that doesn't regurgitate the NPD's same-old list-toppers every week. Can you remember any week since 2005 where a game with the name "Warcraft" or "The Sims" didn't own half the chart anyway? For comparison's sake, let's look at the top 10 PC games for the week ending Feb. 21 -- and remember that the NPD doesn't (currently) measure digital download sales; they measure retail only:
Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II
World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King
The Sims 2 Double Deluxe
The Sims 2 Deluxe
World of Warcraft: Battle Chest
World of Warcraft
FEAR 2: Project Origin
The Sims 2 Apartment Life Expansion
Crysis Warhead
I rest my case, Your Honor.

Welcome to Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by Breaking the Spine, where we get to share the books we're pining for! It just happens to be my 100th WoW post today! That's about two years worth of WoWs. I've been on a horror kick lately, so this week I have another horror pick that sounds really good:
The Lesser Dead by Christopher Buehlman. Release date: October 7 2014 (Berkley Hardcover). This isn't Buehlman's first book by a long shot, although I'm sorry to say I haven't read his previous books. But this is definitely going on my list. Here's the blurb from Goodreads:
The secret is, vampires are real and I am one.
The secret is, I'm stealing from you what is most truly yours and I'm not sorry…
New York City in 1978 is a dirty, dangerous place to live. And die. Joey Peacock knows this as well as anybody—he has spent the last forty years as an adolescent vampire, perfecting the routine he now enjoys: womanizing in punk clubs and discotheques, feeding by night, and sleeping by day with others of his kind in the macabre labyrinth under the city's sidewalks.
The subways are his playground and his highway, shuttling him throughout Manhattan to bleed the unsuspecting in the Sheep Meadow of Central Park or in the backseats of Checker cabs, or even those in their own apartments who are too hypnotized by sitcoms to notice him opening their windows. It's almost too easy.
Until one night he sees them hunting on his beloved subway. The children with the merry eyes. Vampires, like him…or not like him. Whatever they are, whatever their appearance means, the undead in the tunnels of Manhattan are not as safe as they once were.
And neither are the rest of us.
Doesn't this sound like fun? I love the idea of vampires in New York City in the 70s…I can't help but think of punk rock Spike on Buffy. Anyone? Let me know what you're waiting on!

As the new generations become more sensitive about our planet's fragility and excited about recycling, upcycling and reclaiming, the need of combining quality to innovative design becomes essential if we want to keep such public invested.
New 'green' designers and true artisans create using discarded materials with that in mind, paying attention to details and putting extra care into quality standards. 'Shabby chic' is not an option, almost a cop-out, really. Stil Novo Design doesn't care for the 'shabby' part at all, and it shows.

Twenty-three-year-old R&B sensation and television star Brandy has announced that she was married this past summer to producer and songwriter Robert Smith.
"I've fallen in love with a very warm, gentle, understanding and focused person," Brandy said in a recent statement. "This summer we married quietly. A new experience, a new day for me -- I couldn't be happier!"
On March 5th, Brandy will release Full Moon -- her first album since 1998's Never Say Never, which yielded the mega hit "The Boy is Mine," a duet with fellow teen star Monica.
The video for the album's first single, "What About Us?," is available on www.foreverbrandy.com. Brandy is currently making the publicity rounds in Europe, but she will return to the states near the album's release for a slew of TV appearances.

They made it more difficult than it needed to be, but the Tribe pulled out their fourth straight victory in Target Field, their longest win streak in Minnesota since a five-game stretch spanning the 2007 and 2008 seasons. Dating back to last year, the Indians have won nine of their last 10 against the Twins overall.
The highlight of the game was undoubtedly Jeanmar Gomez, who turned in arguably his best game as a pro. Gomez's performance earned him a game score of 68, which bested his previous career high of 66 set during his MLB debut in 2010.
Just a few weeks ago Gomez was in the midst of a 23-start stretch during which he failed to complete seven innings of work, but has done so twice in his last three outings.
Gomez seemed to be trying a new approach tonight, relying more on this fastball. Entering tonight's game, Gomez had thrown just 28 fastballs (6.4% of his total pitches) and relied heavily on his slider and sinker. But against the Twins, Gomez tossed 43 fastballs, nearly half of his pitches. The Twins were just 1-10 against the heater, which he threw for a strike 60% of the time.
Hopefully this new approach is something which continues to work for Gomez.
A few other notes on the game…
- Shin-Soo Choo's RBI single in the 9th inning was his second go-ahead RBI in the 9th inning or later this season. Entering this year, he had just three such RBI in his career.
- Casey Kotchman hit his 3rd home run of the year and his first since April 15. All three home runs have come on the road.
- Since his blown save on opening day, Chris Perez is now 12-12 in save situations. And dating back to last season, Perez has converted 15 consecutive save opportunities on the road, the 5th longest streak in franchise history. Bob Wickman holds the team record with 35 straight road saves from 2000 to 2002.
- The Indians have now won four straight games which Carl Pavano has started against them. They're 6-4 overall against Pavano since trading him to Minnesota in 2009.

From the IB
Humanistic psychology emerged as a third force during the late 1950's in the United States as an alternative to the deterministic orientations of behaviourism and psychoanalysis. There was a powerful element of European existentialism and phenomenology present in the earliest years of development, but humanistic psychology has now developed into an eclectic movement that attracts a diverse range of theorists.
Humanistic psychology's emphasis on the possibility of personal growth and change found immediate acceptance. The methodology applied by humanistic psychologists tends to use alternatives to those focusing on quantification and scientific rigour, but often produces useful data. The humanistic perspective is not applied universally, perhaps because of its emphasis on the individual and its optimistic view of human potential.
Essential Questions
(Learning Outcomes):
Describe and evaluate relevant theories and empirical studies related to humanistic psychology
Explain how cultural, ethical, gender, and methodological considerations affect the interpretation of behaviour in humanistic psychology and health psychology.
Describe and evaluate specific methodologies used in humanistic psychology.
Describe and evaluate application of research findings and theories in humanistic psychology.
Identify and compare the strengths and limitations of humanistic explanations of behaviour.
Explain the extent to which free will and determinism are integral to this perspective.
Explain the extent to which human behaviour is self-directed.
Explain and evaluate the assumption that individuals are able to achieve their maximum potential.

You don't need a high-definition video board in the stadium to see the score: There's a seismic shift coming that will shake college football to the core.
Colorado coach Mike MacIntyre told me he sees big upheaval down the road.
His job is to make sure the Buffaloes are ready for a time when college players are paid, super conferences dominate the sport and money wins championships.
The NCAA now rules football in name only.
So I asked MacIntyre: Who gives the real orders?
"ESPN," MacIntyre replied.
Television revenue has reshaped conference membership, dictates kickoff times and will propel expansion of the playoff system.
The Buffs hired Rick George as athletic director and entrusted MacIntyre with winning at a time when the ante and rewards figure to rise quickly. What worked for CU to win a national championship in 1990 won't cut it if the Buffaloes want to be No. 1 in 2020.
Here's what is on the horizon:
College football players will get paid. It might be a monthly stipend to start. CU accountants have estimated the worth of a full-cost-of-attendance scholarship to be an additional $2,250 for in-state athletes and $2,932 for nonresidents.
Super conferences will rewrite the rule book, whether by creating their own division or breaking away from the stodgy NCAA. This year, there are 62 full members in the Southeastern Conference, Big Ten, ACC, Pac-12 and Big 12. A guess: There might be room for eight more teams at the big-boy table. Unless Colorado State builds that new stadium, the Rams will soon be pushed to the fringes of the sport.
While college presidents have approved a four-team football playoff from the 2014-25 seasons, do not be surprised if the bracket expands to eight teams sooner rather than later. Why? Money.
Can Colorado win big in this brave, new world of college football?
But the Buffs — and everyone who loves them — had better be prepared to spend big.

Cop Slaughters Feral Kittens While Kids Watch. His Boss Says It's Cool.
It reads like a horrifying scene in a movie about psychopaths.
A resident of Vista Lake Way, Ohio, called her local police department to tell them that a family of feral cats had made a home in her wood pile. The police officer, Humane Officer Barry Accorti, arrived about 20 minutes later.
But instead of pulling out protective gloves, or his phone to request a shelter to pick up the animals, he pulled out his gun.
"He [Accorti] informed her that shelters were full and that these cats would be going to kitty heaven," Ohio SPCA Director Teresa Landon told The Sun News. "She assumed he would be trapping them or something and taking them to a shelter and they would be humanely euthanized if they were not adopted."
But there would be no hope of adoption for these kittens. Instead, the officer opened fire on the defenseless kittens, slaughtering them while the woman's children watched, crying, from an upstairs bedroom window.
"It's heartbreaking," Landon said. "There is no excuse for it. It's absolutely shameful that someone with the title of humane officer would do this."
Apparently, this is par for the course in Ohio. Police Chief Mike Freeman almost immediately cleared the officer of wrongdoing, saying "research and other animal organizations accept shooting as an acceptable means of euthanasia."
According to Freeman and The Sun News, the homeowner said in a follow-up interview that "she was aware the cats were going to be euthanized but did not expect it to occur on her property. She explained she felt overwhelmed due to her children being inside the home and hearing the gunshots."
On Tuesday, the Facebook page of the North Ridgeville Police Department was bombarded with so many negative comments, it was taken down for a few hours. It was still inaccessible at the time this post was written.
The situation highlights two important animal welfare issues. First, the absolute importance of spaying and neutering your pets, especially those that are allowed to wander freely outside your home. Second, the calloused mentality toward feral animals that kill shelters have encouraged in our society.
Shelters that euthanize animals teach us that there are only so many cages available. With only so much room at the inn, and new animals being rescued or found all the time, something has to be done to make room. So animals that are old, or otherwise undesirable, are simply killed. We accept it as a fact of life, but in fact it's disrespect for life, as demonstrated by the "humane" officer's explanation to the woman, and his subsequent actions.
If you believe that Humane Officer Barry Accorti acted inappropriately, and should not have fired his gun into a woodpile, killing defenseless kittens in a residential neighborhood, please sign the petition below.
