Quirky place with live music at night. Inexpensive lunch specials that are very good! Go to the back area to get away from the hub-bub. Mexican / Spanish style and American food.
I felt really bad for my friend who took me here, because she loved this placed. I was very disappointed in the food and the service. There were two servers working and a runner. We waited about 20 minutes for waters, which we only got because my friend got up and informed the staff we had been there twenty minutes. We ordered and received chips, salsa and guacamole.

John MacArthur is the pastor-teacher of Grace Community Church in Sun Valley, California since 1969, and is the president of The Master's College (and the related The Master's Seminary) in Santa Clarita, California. He is a prolific writer and minister noted for his radio program titled Grace to You.
MacArthur's theology can be considered a Dispensationalist and Calvinist, and a strong proponent of expository preaching. He has been acknowledged by Christianity Today as one of the most influential preachers of his time, and has frequently guessed on the Larry King Live TV talk show as a representative of an evangelical Christian perspective.
He has authored or edited more than 150 books, most notably the MacArthur Study Bible, which has sold more than 1 million copies and received a Gold Medallion Book Award. Other best-selling books include his MacArthur New Testament Commentary Series (more than 1 million copies), Twelve Ordinary Men, (more than 500,000 copies), and the children's book A Faith to Grow On, which garnered an ECPA Christian Book Award.
I frequently listen to John MacArthur's preaching. I really appreciate his expository preaching style. It has influenced me so much.
Watch this short video about Dr. John MacArthur Jr. At the end of the video you will understand why he is my favorite preacher !!!

DETROIT -- John Halama arrived here Monday afternoon, banged a left at the door to the visiting clubhouse, walked to his corner locker, looked up, and in black marker on a white strip of dry erase board, saw this: "HAMALA."
"John Ham-ala," Mike Timlin announced, roaring.
A clubhouse attendant later erased the name and rewrote it with the proper spelling. Next time to town, that name will, in all likelihood, be spelled properly, because it stands to be remembered.
Halama, who made his debut start with the Sox last night after nine relief appearances, gave the team about as good an effort as could have been expected. He'd maxed out at 34 pitches in his previous appearances, was pegged for a high of 80 by his manager, and yet reached 87. He worked five innings and left ahead, gaining the win in a 5-3 Sox victory before 19,121 at
"John, that's the story," said Timlin, who pitched two innings (the seventh and eighth) of scoreless relief, lowering his ERA to 1.32. "John did a great job. He came in, spot start, he's intelligent. He doesn't do anything drastic. He throws the right pitches at the right time. He knows how to pitch."
The Sox have now lost and won -- in that order -- the games started by Jeremi Gonzalez and Halama, who have joined the rotation in the absence of Curt Schilling and David Wells. Schilling and Wells this season have combined for a 3-5 record and 5.75 ERA. In starts, Gonzalez and Halama are 1-0 with a 4.50 ERA.
Gonzalez will start again Saturday at home against Seattle, while Halama is likely to go back to the bullpen if Wade Miller starts Sunday, as expected.
Doug Mirabelli gave Halama all the support he'd need with a fifth-inning grand slam off Detroit starter Mike Maroth.
"He locates his ball so well," Mirabelli said of Maroth. "He doesn't throw that hard but it looks hard because his changeup is so good."
The changeup came on a 2-and-1 count, and Mirabelli lined it over the bullpen and into the seats in left-center. The backup catcher hit the homer out of the designated hitter spot. David Ortiz, who'd started all 25 games, was rested against Maroth, who owns Ortiz (1 for 10 lifetime).
Mirabelli's two-out homer, the third grand slam of his career, avoided an incredibly frustrating inning. Each of the five batters ahead of Mirabelli got on base, but none had scored (Jason Varitek grounded into a fielder's choice).
Before Mirabelli's at-bat, the Sox had left at least one man on base in each of the previous 12 innings. When he came up, in fact, the Sox were hitting just .200 (5 for 25) in the series with runners in scoring position. But Mirabelli got the pitch he wanted and changed all that.
"That's my best pitch," Maroth told the Detroit Free Press. "I think I threw one too many in the inning."
Maroth, the former Sox draft pick (third round, 1998) traded to Detroit in 1999 for Bryce Florie, struggled with his control. He tied a career high with six walks after walking a total of four in his five previous starts. He walked two in the fifth, fatiguing himself and helping set up the big inning.
Mirabelli went into last night hitting .188 this season with just 16 at-bats, fewest of any Sox player who's spent the whole season on the roster. But he's always hit Detroit hard, and that continued. Of his 12 career hits against the Tigers, half are home runs.
"Terry [Francona] recognized I need a few more at-bats," said Mirabelli, who will start again today when Tim Wakefield pitches.
Mirabelli hit the homer in his third at-bat, after fouling out in the second inning and striking out looking in the fourth. After the grand slam he walked up to Francona and said, according to the manager, "Were you a little worried after the first two at-bats?"
It was a feel-good night, with comments like that. It was almost all good, until Keith Foulke gave up yet another homer, the fifth he's surrendered this season and fourth in eight days. Detroit's No. 7 hitter, Marcus Thames, launched a leadoff shot in the ninth, making it 5-3.
Varitek called for a pitch low and away, and instead got something over the plate and up. Way up.
"It was almost above the guy's head," Varitek said, and he wasn't exaggerating.
Foulke has allowed 11 earned runs after allowing just 20 all of last season and the same total in 2003. Foulke's ERA, which is 7.62, has been below 3.00 at the end of each season since 1998. Foulke has five months to shave that ERA, but he's dug himself quite a hole.
Presently, he needs 20 straight scoreless innings to reduce his ERA to 3.00.


text: News ABCs: Masterchef magazine hits the big time while rise of Frankie continues August 13, 2010 12:01 by Tim Burrowes 6 Masterchef Magazine has made its sales debut as Australia's sixth biggest selling monthly title, new figures today reveal. According to sales data for January to June this year from the Audit Bureau of Circulation, Masterchef sold more than 150,000 copies, propelling it into sixth place in the list of Australia's biggest titles, ahead of stablemate Delicious. And Masterchef's eventual circulation may prove to be slightly higher yet, as the News Magazines title launched part of the way through the audit period, meaning its first figure is based on two issues only. The importance of the food sector to the Australian magazine market is underlined by the fact that five of the top ten highest circulating magazines are from that sector. ACP's Australian Women's Weekly remains on top with just under half a million sales. PacMags' Better Homes & Gardens is some way back in second place, although it did see a 3.5% sales increase. Meanwhile, the female-focused fashion and art lifestyle title Frankie, published by Morrison Media, continued its stellar run, with circulation rising by another 43% – the biggest jump of any title for the second set of audit results running. Despite its recent dramatic jumps in circulation numbers, Frankie has actually been published since 2004. Frankie's founding editor is Louise Bannister. Biggest increases: Biggest decreases: Meanwhile, ACP's Disney Adventures was the worse performer in percentage terms, losing nearly 22% of its circulation compared to the same period during 2009. News Magazines' sports title Alpha saw a similar fall. The title has seen significant drops in its sales since News Ltd stopped bundling it with its newspapers.

Ken Shamrock Wants to Get Into the Ring with Triple HFollow us on Social Media
Follow @iamdesirulez
Tweet #iamdesirulez
Ken Shamrock recently spoke with Steve and the Scum about why he feels he has "heat" with Triple H.
"I'd like to clarify that. There was a guy named Mark Henry, a strong man. He was in the locker room and there were a few guys involved. Hunter was one of them that put s--t in his sandwich and I told him. So, I think Hunter didn't like me for that and I think Hunter didn't like me for the fact that when I first came in Vince put me over on him. I was truly understanding that I was the new guy coming in and I hadn't put in my dues and I was getting a push, but I was doing what I was asked to do. I think Hunter had a real hard time dealing with that, especially with me being a real bad ass otherwise and there's nothing he could do about it. Then opening my mouth to protect another human being, I think there is ribbing and there is having fun and then there is things where you cross over the line, and so I said something."
The former WWE wrestler explains why he feels "blackballed" by the organization.
"I had put out my feelers, I had actually talked to Shane McMahon, he put a call in. I thought I had a pretty intricate part in changing the face of wrestling when I was able to ref the match with Bret Hart and Stone Cold, it changed the face of wrestling. I was in all the Pay Per Views and all the house shows, and I thought I made a pretty good impact and helped change pro wrestling, not by myself, but definitely I was a part of it in the Attitude Era. There is no recognition towards me or about me and I'm kind of disappointed."
Shamrock talked about wanting to get into the ring with Triple H.
"When it comes to Hunter, I would love to get in the ring with him and show him what it's like... help him understand that there is a lot of people in this world that have a lot of natural ability and natural talent and just because you don't like them doesn't mean it isn't so... I would love to get in the ring with him and show him exactly who I am and what I'm about."

The fact that there was no reaction on the girls face, mad this seem good, but not the best of eddsworld(RIP EDD). Other than that, this is probably exactly what happens to me, so thank you for sharing stories! (*Forever Alone*)
Keep up the work!
spam the fav button
The animating, voicework and music was fantastic.
The joke, while many people can relate, just wasn't that great. While someone flipping out and staring off into space at the same table as you is grounds for getting out while you can, you could've shown the girl's reaction, or perhaps a PTSD flashback to the radioactive socks.
Great flash, but a bit lazy.
Sadly, I'm pretty sure my room's almost exactly the same...

Sometimes, after a virus infection, disk drives, flash disks and other media will not open when double clicked, but only when right clicked then open is selected.
This is because of a hidden autorun file left by the virus infection and the antivirus failing to delete it.
To fix this do the following.
Select run from the start menu and type cmd
if the drive with the problem is C:\ type C: and so on
write attrib autorun.ini -h -s -r

We blogged about this amazing stretch of succulent awesomeness about a year ago. I've been in love with it ever since we moved to San Francisco. If you find yourself in the outerlands (Outer Sunset) of San Francisco, take a spin down the Great Highway frontage road near Rivera.
Anyone have any guesses about this hot little Agave in the middle of an Aeonium, Senecio, Dudleya party? I'm guessing Agave scabra, but really have no clue.
Just a half block down from the Greatest Highway Garden we spotted the patch o'succulents happening. Hurray for fellow beach dwellers doing something with their front "lawns"! Just because we live in the foggiest place on earth, does not mean we can't grow cool things. We have excellent drainage.
This beauty is a couple blocks south of the gardens above, but every time we drive by I make Matti slow down so I can ogle this fuzzy creature. What the heck Kalanchoe is it? I'm guessing Kalanchoe beharensis, only after a brief internet search.
Share the love:

Remarks at the Ford's Theatre Gala
you, and thank you all. And special thanks to Jimmy Stewart, who was so
gracious in introducing my roommate,
But we're here tonight not to celebrate the movies but the theater -- Ford's Theatre. This has been quite an evening, and on behalf of everyone here tonight, I want to express my gratitude to all those who've made it possible. Thanks go to the general chairmen, Betty Wright and Carol Laxalt; to the chairman of this evening's gala, Mary Jane Wick; and to the executive producer of this evening's performance, Frankie Hewitt; to our hosts, Jane Seymour and Harry Hamlin; and, yes, to this entire cast.
was 125 years ago this year that Ford's Theatre first opened, as we've been
told. And
I can't resist, seeing all these splendid people up here entertaining us, as they have tonight, giving away the only thing they have to sell. Some years back, some entertainer in show business did something that affronted the public morals; and the press took off on that individual and then on all of show business and said that show people were just childish in their ways, in their thinking, in the things that they did, and complete children in their attitude. And it remained for a columnist named Irvin S. Cobb to respond. And he said: ``If this be true, and if it be true when the final curtain falls all must approach the gates bearing in their arms that which they have given in life, the people of show business will march in the procession carrying in their arms the pure pearl of tears, the gold of laughter, and the diamonds of stardust they spread on what might otherwise have been a rather dreary world. And when at last, all reach the final stage door, the keeper will say, `Open, let my children in.'''
Thank you, and God bless you.
Note: The President spoke at at Ford's Theatre.

Although it might be tempting to read the accounts in the Bible as "stories" with about as much historicity as a myth or fable, Luke's reliability as an historian is unquestionable. Biblical archaeologist Merrill Unger says that archaeology has authenticated the gospel accounts, especially Luke. In Unger's words, "The Acts of the Apostles is now generally agreed in scholarly circles to be the work of Luke, to belong to the first century and to involve the labors of a careful historian who was substantially accurate in his use of sources."
His mention of matters such as the census (Luke 2:1-3), Lysanias as a tetrarch (Luke 3:1), Lystra and Derbe being cities of Lycaonia (Acts 14:6) all show his intimate knowledge of first century life.
Furthermore, his usage of terms such as "deputy" (Acts 13:7, 12; 18:12), "part" (Acts 16:12),"rulers" (Acts 17:6) and "chief man" (Acts 28:7) have confounded scholars but he has always be proven to be right.

Julia Pace Mitchell who plays Sofia on The Young and the Restless confirmed to CBS Soaps In Depth that she has been bumped to recurring status by the number one show, although the series itself would not comment on her contract status as is their policy.
Mitchell stated she is still thrilled to be in Genoa City: "I'm so happy to be here. Every time I come to work, I'm excited to see Jeanne Cooper and Stephen Nichols work. This show has changed my whole life. It's really cool. These are some of the hardest working actors in show business."
The actress also revealed she is starting her own hair care company which people can learn about on her website: www.JuliaPaceMitchell.com.
So soapers, what do you think of Sofia's storylines on Y&R? Do you think the character has been badly written? Would you like to see Julia have more airtime? Let us know!

Fix coerce_to_target_type for coerce_type's klugy handling of COLLATE. Because coerce_type recurses into the argument of a CollateExpr, coerce_to_target_type's longstanding code for detecting whether coerce_type had actually done anything (to wit, returned a different node than it passed in) was broken in 9.1. This resulted in unexpected failures in hide_coercion_node; which was not the latter's fault, since it's critical that we never call it on anything that wasn't inserted by coerce_type. (Else we might decide to "hide" a user-written function call.) Fix by removing and replacing the CollateExpr in coerce_to_target_type itself. This is all pretty ugly but I don't immediately see a way to make it nicer. Per report from Jean-Yves F. Barbier.

Life with new bride Kayte Walsh is so good, Kelsey Grammer says it's as if he's married for the first time.
"[It's] like it's never happened before," the actor told reporters of his "fantastic" marriage before Sunday's Tony Awards at New York's Beacon Theater.
The former Tony-nominee, who presented at this year's ceremony, had Walsh, 29, by his side just a year after he walked the red carpet with now ex-wife Camille Grammer.
RELATED: Camille Grammer 'Trying to Reach Out' to Kelsey
As for the best part of his life with Walsh, the two agree: "[It's] waking up together," Grammer, 56, told PEOPLE.
Added Walsh: "And going to bed together. He's just … perfect."
The actor plans to spend Father's Day with Mason, 9, and Jude, 6, his children with Camille. "I think we're going to have a barbeque," he said, adding that his kids are "very excited" about the possibility of one day having more siblings.
"They're very, very cool about it," Grammer told reporters. "My son, Jude, especially, he's like, 'When are the children coming?' "

So yesterday we jumped back into wikis. Now you have to understand we use wikis a lot in our classroom, but lately, mainly as a place for my students to find and follow links I've put there for them. If you've already been to our class wiki then you found that it has links to many math and language arts activities we use, as well as links to an archive of our past projects, videos and podcasts. One of my favorite uses is to put up a link or even a few about a subject in the news, about a guest speaker or a place we are going to make a connection such as when we Skyped with Alan Levine in Iceland awhile ago. Often I find sites that will build some schema for my students in preparation to read a story or start a study on any subject.
We've made wikis before for a project and loved them, so you might wonder why we haven't produced wikis in class for over a year. 1) we haven't had a project where we needed to make wiki pages, and it just hasn't come up. We would have if needed, but we haven't needed to. 2) Our projects have also been limited somewhat by the very poor wireless connection we dealt with for the last 9 months or so after the second of 3 wireless routers was stolen.
So what changed yesterday? Well, our connection was improved by the installation of 4 brand new Cisco routers and a reason to make wikis reared it's head.
As part of our Reno Bike Project, Project, each group in my classroom has been researching a different topic:(bicycles, smog, childhood obesity, and more).. We have been using Diigo to archive our page links and have liked the new feature that allows you to highlight text on a web page and then annotate it with a "sticky note†so you can remember why you marked that text. We've used stickies to label answers to questions we've found on each site.
Yesterday each group made a new wiki page just for archiving their questions, answers and links. Later we will be editing them more and soon will make them "look pretty†by changing fonts and text size, and adding photos and designs.
As we work on our project if other reasons for wikis arise we will make them.
Learning is messy!

Successful Realtors, like the best houses, are built on a strong foundation, and that's why so many buyers and sellers choose Walter Bering to represent them in the purchase or sale of their most precious commodity…their home. At the pinnacle of a real estate career that spans more than 38 years, Walter was TOP PRODUCER for Martha Turner Sotheby's International Realty in 2007, 2011, and 2013. For well more than a decade, Walter has consistently been among the company's top ten producers, a consistent Circle of Excellence Award winner, a member of the Hall of Fame, and a member of the Pinnacle circle. Year after year, the Houston Business Journal recognizes him as one of the Top 25 Individual Realtors in the City of Houston.
Walter specializes in Houston's most prominent neighborhoods, including River Oaks, Tanglewood, West University, Southampton, Bellaire, and the Memorial Villages. And, in order to service his client's needs in the country, he has expanded his market to include the town of Round Top and surrounding areas.
In a sense, Walter's real estate career reaches back six generations to the first Bering's who emigrated from Germany in the 1840s. The family arrived in Galveston and then Houston via the bayou, intending to take an oxcart on to Llano County. "The story goes," laughs Walter, "that either the wagon broke or the ox did not understand German, so the family settled in Houston." Whatever the reason, it was a fortuitous beginning for a family career in Houston real estate.
The Bering's purchased a farm in what is now West Houston for 50 cents an acre, bordered by dirt roads which, today, are Westheimer Road, Post Oak Boulevard, Voss Road, and Interstate Highway 10. The family was instrumental in the expansion of Houston's western suburbs, planning and developing subdivisions in the Memorial area and several sections of Tanglewood, areas where Walter built his early real estate career.
Some of Walter's first memories are of the realty business started by his grandfather and father, Bering Realty Corp. As a teenager, Walter mowed the lawns of the company's listings and served as the company janitor. "As a child, I learned my first telephone skills when the office telephones would roll over to our house after hours," he says. After graduating from Tulane University in 1979, Walter joined the family firm, becoming a top sales agent as well as the office manager, relocation director, and, eventually, the designated broker. Walter's 16 years of experience at Bering Realty Corp. were excellent training for his successful career at Martha Turner Sotheby's International Realty.

Mandela's daughter: I do believe in the ANC
The daughter of Nelson Mandela, Makaziwe Mandela has told BBC HARDtalk that she believes in the African National Congress (ANC) and what it stands for.
"There might be things that are not going right in the party, there might be individuals who are doing things that don't adhere to the principles of the party, [it] does not necessarily make the party wrong."
The ANC has been in power since the end of white-minority rule in 1994, but high levels of unemployment, allegations of widespread corruption and a lack of basic services has seen a growing dissatisfaction with the government.
Makaziwe Mandela was speaking in the week of the country's first election since the death of Nelson Mandela - South Africa's first black president.

Japanese researchers have reported more evidence to support the controversial idea that vitamin C protects against exercise-induced asthma. Patients with this type of asthma have symptoms -- breathlessness, wheezing and cough -- when they engage in physical activity. None of the children studied had taken drugs commonly used to treat asthma, such as inhaled steroids or Intal. The Japanese team gave each child 2 grams of vitamin C per day for 4 weeks and performed a second exercise test. They also surveyed patients regarding the frequency and severity of asthma attacks during the study. Eight of 17 patients reported decreased frequency of attack and improved lung function.
World Congress of Asthma; Buenos Aires, Brazil; October 19, 1999
COMMENT: A very impressive study demonstrating the potency of a simple inexpensive and safe supplement. The best way to administer vitamin C is by purchasing a powder and by adding it to your water. This allows a steady infusion of C to be given all day long. I suspect that there would have been a far greater response of 50% if the researchers had changed the dosing. I have never recommended this for asthma but it certainly makes sense. I use high doses of vitamin C intravenously for patients, up to 50,000 mg at one time, but normally 25,000 mg over a 90 minute period. This works particularly well for viral infections. Asthma is typically due to mold sensitivities, so removing one from a home or school that is contaminated from a leaky basement or roof is a start in the right direction. The other simple measure that can be done is to stop all fluids that the child drinks but water. Fruit juice is not a good fluid for children, or for adults for that matter. Commercial fruit juice is frequently contaminated with mold and the high amounts of fructose in the juice will push insulin levels out of balance and make allergic reactions much more likely.

Doing Our Bit
Garbage Management
Being a passenger Ship, the generation of large quantities of waste and garbage is inevitable. To lessen the effects of damage to the environment, a 'Garbage Management Plan' has been drawn up, implemented and a 'Green Culture' actively promoted on board. Besides 'ground food waste', no other form of garbage is permitted to be dumped over the ship's side, even if it is permissible by law! At the start of our voyages, a public address announcement is made informing passengers of our commitment to the protection of the environment and reminding them that the dumping of any garbage overboard is strictly against our policy and therefore prohibited.
All generated garbage is carefully sorted and separated by Ship's staff into common receptacles. In the passenger accommodation areas, waste receptacles are combined to reduce confusion this is then separated by ship's staff for final storage. In crew areas, six colour-coded receptacles are provided for various types of waste. The colour code on the receptacle matches the colour of the bags in which the various types of garbage will be stored. These include receptacles for medical waste, paper & cardboard, glass, metals & tins, aerosols & batteries and food wastes. The garbage is then collected and taken along to larger separated receptacles on the fore deck to be stored until it can be safely landed ashore at a garbage reception facility. These larger storage receptacles are also colour-coded further ensuring that the various types of waste remain segregated.
Medical sharps (i.e. hypodermic needles, swabs and syringes), used in the Ship's Medical Centre, are carefully stored in approved 'Sharps Boxes' and stored until they can be safely landed ashore to a dedicated medical waste disposal facility.
Sewage Disposal and Water Conservation
The RMS St. Helena has a modern sewage treatment facility capable of handling waste generated by the nearly 200 passengers and ship's crew. The waste is received into a brand new sewage tank (installed August 2006), is treated and only the permitted effluent is then pumped overboard while in permitted areas and while being rigorously monitored. Although the toilet cisterns are 'freshwater flushed', being a vacuum system the use of valuable fresh water for this purpose is very minimal.
Most of our fresh water is generated from seawater and we fully recognise the importance of conserving the natural resources used in the manufacturing process. Taking this into account, both passengers and crew alike are encouraged to conserve water by turning off taps and showers when not in use. They are further encouraged to conserve water by only putting out towels for laundering when fresh ones are required and by laundering full batches of clothing rather than one garment at a time. Additionally, only approved biodegradable cleaning agents are used, which include toilet cleaners and general cleaning agents.
Oil Pollution
In compliance with international guidelines for the prevention of oil pollution at sea, the RMS St. Helena has a fully approved and operational 'Oil Pollution Prevention Plan'. The plan sets out procedures for the handling of marine oil pollutants, the equipment required for handling them and emergency response procedures in the event that there is an accidental spill or discharge.
A comprehensive 'Oil Pollution Kit' is provided for containing any possible pollution related accidents that could occur. The Ship's crew is fully versed in 'Oil Pollution Emergency Procedures' and regularly conduct emergency drills to ensure that a constant state of readiness is maintained.
In addition, oily water wastes, including the contents of Engine Room bilges, which cannot be safely pumped overboard, are stored in slop tanks until it can be pumped ashore to a marine waste reception facility.
Oily water wastes, suitable for overboard discharge, is first passed through an 'Oily Water Separator' where the oil content is monitored. In the event that the oil content rises above 15ppm, and as an automatic failsafe procedure, the system will immediately shut down, stopping any further overboard discharge.
The RMS St Helena also handles the disposal of waste oil from the islands garages. Waste oil is collected and at regular intervals taken out to the RMS and pumped in to the ships waste oil sludge tank for pumping out at Cape Town with the ships own waste oil to a reception facility which returns it to the local refinery for processing.
Paints & Chemicals
The paints used on the underwater sections of the ship are Eco-friendly; in particular they do not contain lead or tin additives. Even our general and multipurpose chemicals are sourced from approved marine brands in a continued effort to protect the delicate marine environment.
Navigational & Meteorological Procedures
Although it may not seem so, even some of our navigational procedures are executed with the protection of the environment in mind. When arriving at the South Atlantic Islands of St. Helena and Ascension we attempt to anchor as near to the same location as always in a bid to cause as little damage and disturbance as possible to the seabed.
Around these islands there are numerous wrecks and habitats, and apart from their historical and economic (tourism) value, they are in fact, home to various marine creatures and ecosystems. Even the ship's voyage schedule has now been changed to reduce consumption of precious hydrocarbon fuels. In some cases the voyage length has been extended making it sometimes possible for the vessel to run on one main engine rather than two and to reduce the need for running both the main diesel generators and the main engines simultaneously.
In recent months and years the cost and consumption of hydrocarbon fuels have steadily increased globally. More and more of these precious resources are being extracted from their natural reserves every year. We believe that every drop we save today can only be a good thing, regardless how little it seems in the global scheme of things. On a daily basis and in association with the UK Met Office we collect, collate and report meteorological data that is then used for forecasting weather patterns and to predict and monitor global climate changes. This is particularly useful to our navigation as, from these forecasts we can prepare for or avoid dangerous weather conditions, which could cause damage to the vessel or her cargo; therefore reducing the risk of possible environmental pollution incidents.
Indirectly, the data collected could also help scientists track changes in global climate trends, which will inevitably effect the natural environment, enabling them to prepare contingency plans for predicted global disasters. This vital information may also enable scientists to understand and combat the disastrous effects of the phenomenon known as global warming.
Cargo Handling
All cargoes loaded onto the RMS St. Helena are stowed according to the recommended stowage guidelines as detailed in the 'Ship's Cargo Stowage Manual' and the 'International Maritime Dangerous Goods (IMDG) Code'. This is of vital importance in ensuring that the cargo is suitably lashed and stowed to prevent the risk of a pollution incident developing during the three phases of handling namely loading, transit and discharge. In addition to international requirements, local importation rules are also observed and particularly where fresh fruits, vegetables, meat products and livestock are concerned.
The island of St. Helena has very stringent rules regarding the importation of these products. These rules have been put into effect to protect the island's numerously delicate ecosystems and its small population, including the local economy. The introduction of harmful pests and diseases could spell disaster, and so we too take our share of the responsibility to reduce these risks to the lowest possible levels. Prohibited and regulated cargoes are only shipped if all the necessary documentation is in order.
Cargoes that have been banned by the island's authorities, for example meat products regular livestock and exotic animals, which may or may not be infected with certain viruses (i.e. BSE, Avian Flu or Foot & Mouth), are not permitted ashore. Both passengers and crew are kept well informed of any banning orders or regulations currently in force. Even the cargo holds are first swept of debris, and hold bilge units are thoroughly cleaned before being washed, in an effort to reduce the likelihood of possible pollutants being pumped overboard.
Ballast Management
Ballast Water Management The transportation of aquatic species to other area where they are not indigenous is a matter that currently being addressed by the International Maritime Organisation and legislation to manage the discharge of Ballast Water will soon be passed. Meanwhile the RMS St Helena does its best not to discharge clean salt water ballast in areas where it did not originate.
Many of the above processes within the RMS St Helena are subject to a legal requirement to keep log book records to show that we have observed all of the legal requirements. Equipment such as Oily Water Separators are subject to testing by Government Agencies of countries the ship visits as well as all our Environmental Records.

I have had an investment in Gravity Co., LTD. (NASDAQ:GRVY) for a year now, and it currently is selling for the same price it was at when I purchased it. The stock is under $2 but I believe its worth over $5 and here are my reasons.
Gravity Co. is basically in the online gaming industry. They are based out of South Korea but have sales in numerous countries. In 2008 Gungho Online Entertainment, Inc. purchased over 50% of the company and is currently running Gravity Co.
Ragnarok Online and Ragnarok Online 2 – Legend of the Second
Gravity's main game is Ragnarok Online, which is a massive multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) that was released in 2002. Ragnarok Online is one of the most successful MMORPG games in the world. It still has a huge following in various countries including the United States. I advise interested investors to Google "Ragnarok Online", and you will see what I am talking about.
Ragnarok Online 2 – Legend of the Second is the big catalyst here. It really has been in the works since at the latest 2007. But in late 2009 new management started from scratch and completely changed it. This new version has gone through two beta tests and has received positive feedback. From what I see, gamers are really excited in America for this game. One can't imagine what the excitement is like in Asia where the game is even more popular. Management has set a release for this game in the second quarter of 2011 which we are currently in now.
Other games:
One of the main reason Gravity Co. has not received the attention it is warranted, is that the majority of it sales are from Ragnarok Online. Under Gung-ho Online Entertainment, Inc. Gravity Co. has really turned the corner and started developing new games. The following are a list of games I know of that either have been released, updated, or are in development. Please notice the majority of releases and updates have occurred in 2010 or 2011.
- Requiem – 5% of total revenue and revenues continue to rise. Big update released in 2011
- ROSE Online – 1% of revenues and New World was released in 2010
- Emil Chronicle Online – Over 1% of revenues
- Estar (tentative title) – In development
- Canaan – Recently went through beta testing. Not sure if released yet
- NeoCyon – Various mobile games are released through this subsidiary. Revenues are increasing and multiple news reports have come out of new mobile games. The 2009 revenues were $7 million and according to the unconsolidated report might be up 30%.
- HAVE Online – Entered into publishing agreement with online game developer to publish game in Korea and Japan. Expected release was third quarter 2010.
- Dragon Saga – Purchased over 50% from Barunson Interactive for around $10 million. This game was launched in late 2010 with excellent reviews. Hopefully, we will see a nice increase in revenues for the first quarter of 2011 due to this game.
- War of Gods – Entered into publishing agreement with another company to publish in Korea in late 2010.
- Weapons of Gods – Entered into publishing agreement with another company to publish in Korea. Expected release is third quarter of 2011.
Recently Gravity Co. has started the following website:
Basically, you can go to this website and they allow access to a majority of their games right there. Please go and check it out. It looks like they have other games that I haven't heard anything about.
Financial Reports
Before I discuss the numbers behind Gravity Co, I would like to help interested investor understand what Gravity Co. reports for financial information. Since it's a foreign company I would not use any of the information from websites like Morningstar.com, etrade and the like. I advise only to go to sec.com/edgar and look at their official filings. Gravity Co. reports an annual report called a 20-F. This can be confusing because they also report unconsolidated reports which do not reflect the correct numbers from their subsidiaries. To add to this confusion, in 2010 they reported a so called consolidated report which only consolidated its purchase with Barunson Interactive. It is important to understand that this Barunson consolidated report does not include consolidated numbers from its other subsidiaries, only Barunson. My analysis in this article is based off of the 2009 20-F, but you will see that I note what is likely to be reported on the 2010 20-F once it comes out.
Balance Sheet
I flat out love Gravity's balance sheet for two reasons. First, is the obvious cash position and basically no liabilities. As an accountant you rarely see a balance sheet this strong outside of investment companies. The second reason is what this tells me about management. I think the balance sheet is a great way to assess a management's ability. Gravity's ability to develop a strong balance sheet to go forward is impressive.
On a valuation stand point I like to add the cash and short-term investments less total liabilities to my FCF valuation. The 2009's per share amount is $1.70. But I think we need to consider the 2010's 50% Barunson Interactive purchase price of $10 million. Even though accounting rules should put 50% of any cash on Barunson's books on Gravity's balance sheet, I still want to be conservative. So let's reduce cash by the 10 million and say cash less liabilities is $1.34 per share.
Going Forward: Going forward, the most important thing is that management keeps this strong balance sheet. If you are optimistic like I am, cash flow should stay positive going forward. So the question is what they will do with all their cash. If they keep buying into new games are they going to be successful? Will they buy back more shares? Only time will tell.
Income Statement
The positive on the income statement is the net income they are able to pull from this old Ragnarok Online game. This is mainly due to management's ability to keep costs down. The not so positive side is that this old game was 74% of the revenues in 2009. This alone will scare most investors away, not to mention 2010 unconsolidated report showing revenues way down from Ragnarok Online. I am ok with this, because if you look at the Barunson consolidate report, once they include the revenues from the subsidiaries not consolidated on this report on the 2010 20-F revenues should be similar to 2009. This is very impressive because the majority of their new games weren't updated or released until late 2010.
Going Forward: The most important thing to watch on the income statement is revenues. Ragnarok Online revenues are falling, but revenues from other games should be rising. I expect revenues to increase each quarter in 2011. The other thing to watch is how their cost structure will change from all these new games coming out including Ragnarok Online 2.
Cash Flow Statement
Looking at the cash flow statement, the 14 million in cash they received from operations shows a promising future if RO2 is somewhat successful. Remember, the majority of this cash is from an old game with declining revenues. If I subtract capital expenditures and use a conservative multiple of 10, I get an approximate value of $3.96. Remember Gravity Co. is selling under $2.
Going Forward: I will continue to get my valuation from the cash flow statement and expect cash from operations to increase in 2011. Unfortunately Gravity Co. does not report a cash flow statement on their quarterly reports. So I will have to watch the income statement and cash on the balance sheet carefully each quarter.
I must note that the unconsolidated report does look like the FCF is probably going to be down for 2010. How much I am not sure, but many of the new games did not come out until the end of 2010 and others in 2011. So this is expected with the declining revenues of Ragnarok Online.
Risk of owning a foreign company
Most will ask themselves what is the risk of owning a Korean company. What do I know about the currency risk? What do I know about South Korea's economy? What if North Korea nukes South Korea? Well, the U.S. is increasing their business with South Korea dramatically. Investors have been investing in South Korea. This is all I need to know, because this should keep the WON strong enough for my investment in Gravity Co. and actually could be a huge catalyst.
Why is it so cheap?
It's obvious why Gravity Co. is cheap. The majority of its revenue is from one game which is old and declining. RO2 has been in the works for years and there is still no release. Old management was accused of diverting revenues to them, and other litigation issues were charged against old management.
Why I like the delay in RO2 release.
If you have owned this stock you would know its been tough waiting for the release of RO2. Management has delayed the release numerous times. This is fine for me because I compared other similar games and their development timelines. Remember new management started this new version of RO2 in late 2009. So in reality it hasn't even been two years. The market needs to relax because these games take time. I believe the delays show the strength of new management. They could have easily released a weak game due to the pressures from gamers and investors. But they continue to work on it and make sure they release a successful game. I am fine with this.
Is this value investing?
Now I know many will say this is not true value investing. You are betting on one successful game. I disagree with this because you value a company on FUTURE earnings not past earnings. Gravity Co. has a huge potential in Ragnarok Online. RO2 is going to be very popular with no doubt. These MMOPG games are more like a community of players unlike just a regular video game. Even little success should turn some profit, plus don't forget the numerous new games recently released or soon to be released and the cash they have to work with.
So let's add the value I get from the balance sheet and cash flow statement together.
The unconsolidated report looks like the cash on the balance sheet and the cash from operations will be lower. So my above calculation is of course going to go down some but not by much. Still I think the market is too tough on this stock. Even if everything doesn't turn out like I expect, there are enough things going on where I think they can stay positive in their cash flow. Now if everything turns out like I expect, the $5.30 will be the low point for the valuation of this company.
Going forward investors and interested investor need to pay attention to the following:
- Release of RO2 and its success. News could literally come out any day now. But it also could come out days from now.
- Every new quarterly report should show us new revenues and income from these new games, especially Dragon Saga.
- Keep an eye on their cash and short-term investments. What will management do with the excess cash?
Disclosure: I am long GRVY.

For years, The Onion has offered sarcasm-drenched lulz that left-wingers could read, chuckle, and share with friends. News the publisher would be ending its 25-year run was depressing, but the reasoning behind it made sense with the way that this country is headed, the line between satire and reality is becoming increasingly blurred.
Those wanting proof of this trend need only look at the Buckeye State for proof, where an anti-abortion group is making headlines. In an effort to raise money for their message to be heard, the Midwest group – known as Personhood Ohio – is selling assault rifles, a move spearheaded by group leader Patrick Johnston.
"In a recent email blast, Johnston asked his fellow Ohioans to help support his personhood cause by buying some assault weapons from his personal collection. "I'm selling some of my favorite things — some powerful rifles and ammo," the Personhood Ohio director wrote.
"I'm a firm believer that the Second Amendment protects the future of freedom, but not as much as justice for the preborn," Johnston's email continued. "The shedding of innocent blood will bring God's wrath on the land — and then you can wave freedom goodbye. So protecting Ohio's children is more important than securing your right to keep and bear arms."
"Johnston put three of his own firearms, as well as 2,550 rounds of ammo, up for auction on his Facebook page. The Ohio-based blog Plunderbund reports that Johnston's guns all use the same kind of ammunition as an AK 47. Two of them include high capacity magazines and one has a drum that holds 100 rounds.
I'm not here to tell you how to feel about abortion or gun control, just to point out the batsh*t crazy conservative smoothy that certain people in my home state drink on a day-to-day basis. And I know that I'm not alone by any means; every state has their conservatives and liberals. But, the only thing missing from this equation is news that the group holds their weekly meetings in their local church basement.

Reflections based on Luke 7:36–50.
'A woman in that town who lived a sinful life … came there with an alabaster jar of perfume. As she stood behind him at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears. Then she wiped them with her hair, kissed them and poured perfume on them.'
After a little break over Christmas, we are back to our Wednesday devotionals on worship…
What total extravagance. Could you picture yourself doing that: entering a home uninvited, weeping and wiping Jesus' feet with your hair and then kissing them and pouring a year's worth of perfume over them? Jesus not only accepted the offering of worship from this woman, but also told her that her faith had saved her. Others looked on, probably shocked that Jesus allowed 'such a sinner' near him and also appalled at the apparent 'waste' (which, incidentally is how the disciples responded to a similar incident later in Jesus' ministry – see Matthew 26:6–13 for example).
Before we side with the onlookers, condemning the sinner as inappropriate and her actions too 'showy' (do we do the same in church?), think about how she truly understood the depth of her sin. She wept enough tears to clean Jesus' feet! She knew who she was and her dire need of Jesus. As she poured out her love extravagantly, He forgave her extravagantly, extending His love and forgiveness to her.
Extravagant means 'excessive', 'lavish', 'wasteful' and I think worship that can be described like this comes in response to how much we truly understand what we've been saved from. I am enjoying listening to a song by Kim Walker Smith at the moment, which has a line in it 'I wanna waste myself on you'. It seemed like a strange line at first, but it has been hitting my heart each time I listen to it, and, looking at this passage, I can see exactly what it means. Just as in any other love relationship, God enjoys it when we show Him how much we love Him. This woman poured out something so precious that others called her wasteful, yet Jesus understood her extravagant act – and praised her for it. Can He do the same to you?
Question: What extravagant act can you do today to show God how much you love him?

How much difference do you think cables makes in the audio quality of your system?

Re: How much difference do you think cables makes in the audio quality of your system
I've responded to this thread before and would like to say that expensive cables(one's that cost thousands and tens of thousands of dollars) probably aren't worth the money.
Cables maybe the most over hyped piece of equipment in the audio industry.
I've tried various brands of cables in my system and some home made cables. For the most part the home made cables were as good as the branded cables that I tried.
Many people go to a hi end store and the sales person uses some psychology on them during the selling and demo process. Suggesting that he hears this or that and the customer(s) won't admit that they don't hear what the sales person is hearing. I guess you could call that the golden ears syndrome.
For the most part, I liked the Canare wire in my system for my speakers.
For interconnects, I never noticed much difference between balance cables in my system.
But I have noticed differences in unbalanced cables. I finally settled on a little know brand of cables made by Chimera Labs.
They are neutral/uncolored that is they just convey the signal from each piece of the components.
A friend bought a new set of speakers for his system and we both thought the system was lacking something. The music was good but uninvolving. So I brought a pair of my interconnects to his house and I installed them between preamp and amplifier.
The system completely opened up. Now he has converted all his interconnects and is very happy.
So in summary:
Don't get sucked into a sale person using psychology on you to hear what a cable is doing.
A cable shouldn't do anything. Like a good Doctor, a cable should do not harm.
And, price is not a good indicator of quality or performance
Trust your ears and take the cables home to listen to them in you r system.

How are things changing?
ACMA Report
If you want an official Australian Government version, read Top Six Trends in Communications and Media Technologies, Applications and Services – Possible Approaches produced by the Australian Communications and Media Authority in March 2008, but only released this month. The ACMA is Australia's regulator for broadcasting, the internet, radiocommunications and telecommunications.
The trends identified were:
1. Accelerating pace of change
2. Diversity in physical infrastructure and higher-speed broadband networks.
3. Distributed connectivity
4. Emerging content and network management technologies
5. Web-based services and the emerging "social web"
6. Continuing scientific and technological innovation
The report authors seem strangely comfortable when they talk about wires and gizmoes, but when it gets to the more slippery areas of social networking, they seem to want to just define what these things are and then run away as fast as they can. Maybe these topics are outside their brief. Sentences like this, however, do have me scratching my head in puzzlement:
SNS [social networking sites] may evolve over the next five years to become integrated hubs for individuals, organizations, and their extended networks to connect, communicate, access and share tailored news, information and entertainment
*May* ? *Next five years* ?
It was clear that they were also uneasy about those crazy kids and their mesh networks :
. .. in a self selecting community of mesh users, it may be difficult to distinguish between public and private communications over a mesh network. Individuals who set up and/or use mesh networks may not be fully aware of the consequences or risks associated with open access arrangements.
Those Wacky Kids
If you want a much more entertaining look at how things are changing on the education front, check out Mark Pesce's recent presentation to a group of educators in Brisbane: Those Wacky Kids . It looks at the effects of having a hyperconnected bunch of people – many, many of them under 15. I like this slice of life of a schoolkid:
These "hyperconnected" and ever-more wacky kids get up in the morning, put on their uniforms and go to school. When they get there, they've got to turn off their mobiles, put away their iPods, close the chat windows, unplug themselves from the webs of co-presence which shape their social experiences, sit still and listen to teacher.
And they've got to do this inside of an environment – the classroom – which is so thoroughly disconnected from the rest of life as they have always known it that it must, deep in their co-present souls, resemble nothing so much as a medieval torture chamber. An isolation tank. Solitary confinement.
It's not just that school is a pain in the ass. It's that it looks – to them – like a completely unrealistic pain in the ass, one which is out of step with the world beyond the classroom walls. It's as if, every morning, these kids are marched into a time machine which transports them back to 1955.
Hyperconnectivity in the workplace
If you want to find out more about the effects of Hyperconnectivity on the workplace, you could read the paper that telecommunications company Nortel commissioned, the Hyperconnected: here they come (May 2008). It does, of course, try to lead the reader to conclude that they need products just like the sponsor provides – but if you can get through all that, it's quite useful. If you don't want to give them your email address in return for reading the paper, you could still glean much of it from this ArsTechnica article: No off switch: "Hyperconnectivity" on the rise . Snippets from the report:
- 16% of the workforce is currently considered "hyperconnected" , with a further 36% to come very soon.
- Reliable infrastructure to keep these people connected will become critical
- The boundary between work and personal is slipping
- Hyperconnectivity in the hands of the workers will have great productivity gains, but can also put sensitive company information at risk
- 60% of the Hyperconnected are under 35, and only 7% are over 55
- 60% are male
Finally – hyperconnected friends, enemies and armies for action
Returning to Mark Pesce again, here's a clip of him talking about twitter and what it can do,Friends, Enemies and My Army. , from the 2008 Next Wave Festival, Mercat Hotel, Melbourne, on 25 May 2008
There is some strong language.

5 Responses to "Hyperconnectivity – it's here"
Nice thoughtful entry Kathryn! It poses all the questions I want the Education Faculty to respond to in relation to preparing new teachers for schools, not to mention the same questions being addressed to IT policy makers in education sectors.
How do we prepare students using the tools that sit so comfortably with them?
Then there's the issue that Tanya Notley raises – what role do schools have in ensuring social inclusion in a networked culture? (Especially when many in education officialdom seem to use the same strtegy you describe – define social networking then run away)
"When they get there, they've got to turn off their mobiles, put away their iPods, close the chat windows, unplug themselves from the webs of co-presence which shape their social experiences, sit still and listen to teacher." – yes, just like the rest of us. Sometimes you have to concentrate on something and that involves paying attention to what is going on where you are, not what everyone else is doing.
"And they've got to do this inside of an environment – the classroom – which is so thoroughly disconnected from the rest of life as they have always known it that it must, deep in their co-present souls, resemble nothing so much as a medieval torture chamber. An isolation tank. Solitary confinement." – Please. That's right, not being able to write 'OMG, he is sooooo hot' will just be torture. How will they cope? The fact of the matter is, not a lot of what these people are saying to each other is that important. They, like me, will survive the dreadful disconnect from their peers. Learning to function in an artificial environment prepares them for another one they will have to live in – the world of work. How many woolies workers do you see who are 'hyperconnected' at work?
"It's not just that school is a pain in the ass. It's that it looks – to them – like a completely unrealistic pain in the ass, one which is out of step with the world beyond the classroom walls. It's as if, every morning, these kids are marched into a time machine which transports them back to 1955." – Oh yes, 1955, clearly. Or 1995, or 2000, one of those. It is perfectly reflective of the wider society that in the school environment you are focusing on what you are there for – education – and not on what your friends in the next classroom are sniggering about.
I for one take issue with the assumption that because some kids are 'hyperconnected' this means that the classroom has to change to allow them to remain so. I just don't agree that because people ask them to turn off their mobiles and stop chatting to all and sundry about their smallest activities this is somehow a tortuous experience that will never prepare them for the rest of their lives. I don't have my mobile on me at work, because in my job it isn't appropriate. This is the current world we live in. Just because people do something in their social life doesn't mean that schools or the workplace must or will adopt these same conditions. Just because a tool (eg mobile phone) can be used in a productive way doesn't mean it will be used in a productive way. I'm not suggesting that collaboration is bad, or that these tools don't have a place in schools or the workplace, but cruelty to puppies it ain't. I just don't think that this kind of overstating of the situation helps people who don't see the point of the tools he is referring to understand or take them seriously. If anything it makes people skeptical of their worth.
Just re-read my post and wanted to make it clearer- I am not anti connectivity! I know there are roles for Twitter, Jaxtr, blogs, wikis, flickr, etc etc etc both in the workplace and in schools, but I think the focus must be on WHY and HOW we want to use these things.
Merriwyn –
At this point in time, we do not tell the kids why and how we want to use these things. We simply tell them to put these things away. That approach is not only not working, it is actually counterproductive. The informational pressures of hyperconnectivity continue to build, whether we acknowledge them or not, and whether we know how to harness them or not. This is why my final injunction is that the teachers must become students: we ourselves do not know why and how to use these things.
Mark – I agree that we should deal with the issues appropriately and explain why we do or do not use certain things in specific contexts, rather than just enforcing a blanket policy. There is of course an issue at the moment that not everyone sees the potential uses for these tools,and some people are unwilling to consider new tech because it takes time, effort etc. But I still think that the arguments were overstated and oversimplified. That said, I do think teachers need to learn about these things and see if there are appropriate uses for them in the classroom, so I do agree with the underlying concept. I just don't agree with the idea that we must automatically adopt a technology that people use in their personal lives in an educational context. I think it is really important to figure out what is actually useful and what isn't, without making sweeping inclusions or exclusions.

I'll be at OSCON all next
week, and on Thursday I'll be giving a talk about the state of free
JVMs. Come by and talk to me if you're in the Portland area. I'm
really looking forward to this conference, it is the first really big
one where I'm giving a gcj-related talk.
Patch Tracking
Thanks to the omnipresent Dan Berlin, GCC has a patch tracker.
We've needed one of these for a long time.
I was hoping monotone would fill the role — what better to track
patches than a version control system? — but that, unfortunately,
still seems distant. Still, that is where I would rather see things
go; it is very convenient to have everything directly in version
control. It seems to me that the difference between patches being
submitted and those checked in is really a matter of approval and not
a difference in how we want to manipulate them, and that having two
different systems to handle patches whose only difference is an "OK"
from rth is clumsy.
Not Automake
I saw a note about gaudi on
Planet Gnome recently. This is an automake-like program written pure
using GNU make constructs. I think this is a great idea whose time
has finally come — let's just kill the other make variants. Ten
years ago it made sense to cater to weird system; I even did automake
testing on an Ultrix machine. Nowadays, well, we're better off making
the world follow us.
I think this will never be my ideal build tool, unless someone
adds a second syntax to GNU make to make it less insane (not to
mention some feature upgrades like file signature tracking). But,
with work, this tool could be a viable and better-performing
replacement for the autotools.
What I would like to see is the various configure checks rewritten
as make rules. This sounds crazy, and it kind of is, but it would
have some very nice benefits. First, it would mean that configury
would be parallelizable. Second, done properly (meaning: no more
recursive make invocations), it would mean that even in big
multi-configure trees you could just do each check a single time.
Third, it could simplify maintenance — remove a dependency and the
corresponding configure checks would disappear.

We spend 10 minutes doing oral review and going over the lesson. Ds then does the work as "independent work" and I grade it when he's finshed. It takes him about 15-20 minutes to do the work. I have him do all the exercises and problems because I think the practice in writing and using correct grammar and mechanics is important.
We do the oral review, I introduce the lesson and he works the required assignment. I am always at the table (our school room) for questions. Overall, the lessons are fairly short because the teacher's manual is very well planned )for Amish schools. However, there are several problems so you may skip a few or decide to do them all. Regardless, the lessons are still short. We do all of the problems and alternate days with the worksheets which are sold separately. Worksheets make for great review of the previous days lessons. HTH
Posted 09 June 2008 - 03:47 PM
This is the same as with my ds and dd. Neither of them likes going over and over stuff they already understand though, so I go over the review in the book, and only have them do the worksheets if they're stuck on something and need the extra practice.
I usually used the quiz questions in the teacher book and then briefly went over the lesson. We did most of the exercises in the book orally using a white board--because my son does not like to write.
My kids get handwriting and writing mechanics practice in other classes, so I don't have them write it all out most of the time.

MediaBuyerPlanner: NBCU has inked a deal with video game advertising seller IGA Worldwide. The deal is just the latest in a series of moves NBCU is making into off-TV media platforms.
As with other recent deals, the move allows NBC to offer expanded advertising options while simultaneously promoting its own networks and cable properties.
Via the IGA deal, NBC will now be part of new video game products from publishers such as Activision and Electronic Arts, writes MediaPost.
Earlier this week, NBCU announced a deal with Arena Media Networks to sell advertising during 10-minute video loops that are played throughout the company's network of stadiums. Other NBCU partnerships in the out-of-home space include one with Premiere Retail Networks for supermarket advertising and with Clear Channel Taxis for taxicab advertising.
In June, IGA announced a partnership with Nielsen Entertainment to study the effectiveness of in-game advertising.

Parish - Zaha Loan Back = No Joy
Steve Parish has said the idea of selling Wilf and then loaning him back doesn't exactly fill him with joy as an idea.
Speaking to the London Evening standard our co chairman explained.
'That idea doesn't strike me with joy. I'm not sure what you would get out of a player. We just want to put a lid on it now. All I care about is getting promoted. In the end, that's all I care about. Wilfried is on a four and a half year contract and every real offer that comes in, we look at it in the context of what's best for our chances of getting promoted. We want stability and all of our best players available and try to get promoted, that's our goal. Everybody else will have to fit in around that.'
The constant Zaha links are to be expected, although they are getting a bit tiresome. I still say turn the phone off and ignore everybody until the window closes!

AIGAC's History
The core concept of the Association of International Graduate Admissions Consultants (AIGAC) can be traced back to an initiative that the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth adopted in Spring 2005. Inviting twenty-four graduate educational consultants from eighteen countries, the Tuck School of Business held the first-ever "Conference for International Educational Consultants." Sponsored by Tuck's Admissions Office, the conference provided insight into Tuck's academic programs, its faculty and students, and its close-knit learning environment. It is here that two of AIGAC's four founding members met: Linda Abraham of Accepted.com and Ricardo Betti of MBA Empresarial (Brazil). One year later Graham Richmond of Clear Admit and Maxx Duffy of Maxx Associates met at the second Tuck conference.
Inspired by the collaborative spirit and camaraderie of the international educational consultants, Accepted.com in Fall 2005 submitted a proposal to the Graduate Management Admission Council® (GMAC®) to provide a presentation for its membership at their annual conference in June 2006. After the proposal was accepted, MBA Empresarial, Maxx Associates, and Clear Admit were invited to be co-presenters of the session entitled Admission Consultants: Love 'em, Hate 'em, Use 'em. GMAC®, for the first time, included these educational consultancies at its annual conference. The four invited consultancies, long-time leaders in the field with a combined 70 years of industry-defining experience, discussed what graduate admissions consultants do, the role they play in guiding graduate applicants in the admission process, the benefits they offer graduate admission offices, and the vision they have of how graduate admissions consultants and graduate management admission offices might work together.
During the GMAC® presentation, the four consultancies announced their interest in forming a not-for-profit association to realize the concept of setting industry standards for graduate admissions consultants. In November 2006, AIGAC was officially incorporated in the State of California.
AIGAC Mission Statement
AIGAC provides insight and transparency into the graduate admissions process and promotes ethical standards and professional development among our members and stakeholders worldwide.

So, this is my take on Chasing Demons. Am going to include snippets of text from the actual episode as guidance for my version. I miss Leddi. Apology for the short start. Just getting the ball rolling... Enjoy :) Please Review!
Content in each others company, The journey back was a quiet one. Luc's focus fell on the route home whilst Eddi sat simply smiling to herself having realised exactly where she was.
She'd most likely driven past that beautiful haven many a time. It wasn't far from home.
A small laugh escaped her as she remembered how angry she had been when he so lovingly kidnapped her. Her happiness soon fading as the reality of why he did it clawed its way back into her thoughts.
She lent against the window as she snuggled into her oversized hoody. A hoody that she had now officially claimed as her own despite Lucs best efforts of maintaining ownership.
She glanced up as the hospital buildings towered over the campervan upon its arrival. The van she'd once named as the top of her world had, ironically, never felt so small as it settled into its familiar spot.
A deep breath from her direction signalled Luc to put a comforting hand on hers. She squeezed it in return but remained focused on the outside world.
Little did he know, his campervan had now become her safe haven, a place where he made things better. A place where the outside world couldn't harm her. Her safe place.
The Hospital, his safe place, was now a place that fed her addiction. She couldn't work out how one place could mean such different things to two very similar people. She silently questioned if it was even possible. If they were even possible. Only time would tell.
