Antonio Conte praised Carlos Tevez and hopes the goal can boost Fernando Llorente's confidence at Juventus.
Llorente had his first start in a Bianconeri jersey and got his debut goal in a 2-1 win over Hellas Verona.
"Luck isn't on our side at the moment, as the only time Verona came into our half they scored," the Coach told Sky Sport Italia.
"We did very well to react quickly and turn the game around. We continued to play and seek the goal, but hit the bar and went close on other occasions.
"I had to rotate the squad to give everyone both a chance to rest and to play. It wasn't easy, as Verona clammed up and Jorginho followed Pirlo everywhere, I thought he was going to follow him into the toilets at one point!
"When you play football, you want to play and not have a man-marker attached to you for the entire match. At one stage we even used Pirlo as practically a trequartista to create some space for the midfielders.
"We know it's inevitable opponents will try to limit your creative centres and hit you on the break, so we must learn to adapt to these situations."
Pre-season the strike partnership was meant to be Tevez-Llorente, though so far the Argentine has made a much bigger impact.
"The strikers did very well. Carlos is increasingly a protagonist and an important player for us, especially in moments when the team needs someone to create situations out of nowhere.
"Fernando did well, he can do better, this goal will certainly boost his confidence and that of all of us who worked hard to get him back into shape. It was planned that he would play one of the three games this week. I chose Verona, as we were on home turf and the fans could help him.
"We cannot afford to think there are players who can't be dropped. We play every three days, they need to rest and squad rotation is essential, so soon enough Tevez will also be rested. Otherwise we risk reaching October with him on a stretcher."

Dear affiliate,
Every vendor wants you to THINK they have the highest-converting, easiest-to-promote product in the world…
But the truth is, their affiliate programs are usually tacked on at the last minute, filled with "coming soon" promises that never materialize.
With Leap Fitness, however, the focus from day one has been to give our affiliates everything possible to ensure their success.
That's why the Leap Fitness Affiliate Program features a multitude of features affiliates lust after, including…
Not only do you make at least 75% of each front-end sale of every Leap Fitness product (super affiliates, contact us for special extra-commission, high-volume deals), we also offer irresistible one-click upsells with huge conversion rates (on which you also receive up to 75%).
We haven't even touched on our ever-expanding line of other products within the LeapFitness umbrella brand, each one of which we build into the sales funnel to provide you a constantly-rising EPC.
And to ensure your EPCs are always sky-high, we've got…
As an affiliate, there's nothing worse than having your hard-won traffic crash and burn against an awful sales page. That's why we spared no expense in hiring one of the best copywriters around, Daniel Scott.
If you don't know Daniel, he was trained by Vin Montello, the man responsible for weight-loss juggernaut FatBurningFurnace.com (among others). Daniel has since risen to become one of the highest-converting copywriters around, and the sales page he's put together for us is selling like crazy.
Daniel's also put his skills to work creating multiple facets of our sales funnel, including upsell pages, follow-up emails, and affiliate swipes for you.
Best of all, he's taken a vested interest in this project, and is constantly tweaking, re-writing, and testing various aspects of the sales funnel, pushing your EPCs up as high as possible.
We've also made it a priority to give you…
We've spent a lot of time trawling through other affiliate programs (both in the fitness niche and many others)… and we're yet to see an affiliate area that comes close to rivaling ours.
Our affiliate center features…
And a lot more – sign up as an affiliate and check it out yourself by Signing Up below (it's free, and you can cancel at any time).
Of course, the highest EPCs in the world won't help if you have to give it all back with refunds.
That's why a huge focus of the Leap Fitness Affiliate Program is…
Every claim made on Leap Fitness product pages are 100% accurate.
The product creators and advisers work with renowned coaches, nutritionists and fitness experts, and their methods generate amazing results (the before/after shots are all real and on-file).
Furthermore, the lightning-fast support we offer, as well as the unquestionable quality of our product and huge value we offer keeps refund rates amazingly low.
In short, you never have to worry about your reputation being trashed. Your list will love you for sending them to us, and you'll generate a ton of positive word-of-mouth and future business.
There's also…
Every month, valuable affiliates can earn extra commissions for volume sales, or even win hot prizes.
And don't worry… it's not always the same guys on the leaderboard every month. We know even the up-and-coming affiliates are valuable to our business, so we've put in plenty of incentive for the little guys, as well.
Plus, if your strength is recruiting affiliates rather than making sales, that's no problem either. We'll soon have a two-tier affiliate system in place where you can earn money on every sale your "recruits" make!
So What Are You Waiting For?
Remember, signing up to our affiliate program is fast, easy, and 100% free. So why not start promoting Leap Fitness products today, and see just how easy and profitable it is for you?

Selena Gomez: Battling a DEADLY DISEASE!!!by Hilton Hater at . Updated at . Comments
For reasons not entirely clear, Miley Cyrus dissed Selena Gomez in concert this week, violently tossing around a cardboard cutout of her fellow singer.
But the latest issue of In In Touch Weekly states plainly: the artist has something more pressing to worry about than a petty Miley Cyrus slight...
She's battling a DEADLY DISEASE!
The tabloid quotes multiple doctors for its misleading article (none of whom have ever met Gomez), and they all agree that "too much work, stress or partying could have serious consequences" for the star.
They cite her diagnosis of Lupus and say Selena is on the verge of "life and death," depending on her life choices.
The tabloid goes on to say that Gomez "wasn't taking care of herself at all" throughout her roller coasting relationship with Justin Bieber and that her family "staged an intervention" as a result.
However, this act "only pushed her deeper into the abyss during her medical crisis," according to a totally real insider.
Fortunately, Gomez made the "life-changing decision to clean up her act" in recent weeks, the magazine writes, explaining that she "has recommitted herself to her physical and emotional health."
This has been made clear by a number of happy Instagram photos (below)... but it doesn't mean Selena is out of the dangerous woods just yet.
"[Her] loved ones still fear her cycle of bad decisions could start over again at any time," the tabloid warns.
Especially if Bieber takes his shirt off again in Selena's presence. We all know what kind of side effects that can have.

'New York to London Milky Way,' a totally sweet astronomy photo
Wow, after spending many years shooting stars and many years shooting out of random commercial airplane windows (cloudy, scratched, dual pane plexiglass (bring a screen cleaner towelette to remove a day's worth of nose and finger prints!)), I can hardly believe this shot. I'm guessing the crystal clear atmosphere and dark sky help things a bit, but to get no motion blur from a 10 second frame, and likely a crop sensor camera, is incredible.
Props to this shooter!
like all "good" astrophotos, this one is a stack of images… i agree it's a heck of a technical feat but the max subexposure length was 30s; star trailing will be pretty minimal at the focal length going here. probably had to do a little photoshop work to paste back in an "unregistered" wing.
it's a really cool image.
That's what I thought too... but it isn't a stack: "In the end, one 10 second long exposure resulted in this steady and colorful example of airborne astronomy."
Apparently this shot includes no more "tricks" than a long exposure and a blanket to block out the reflections from the interior lighting.
huh, you're right, reading comprehension... -10,000 points to joeblough.
Imagine attempting this with a 36 exposure reel film camera.

Starring: Cameron Diaz, James Marsden, and Frank Langella
Director: Richard Kelly
Released: Warner Brothers Pictures (2009)
Prior to watching this movie, I was unaware it was based on a short story by Richard Matheson. If I'd known that I would have made it a point to read "Button, Button" before watching this sci-fi thriller, as I like to read a story before seeing the film interpretation. Oh well, I don't think it would have mattered much because I suspect I would have been a bit disappointed by this movie either way.
The story deals with a married couple enduring hard times with the wife (played by Cameron Diaz) being laid off from her teaching job and the husband (James Marsden) failing the psychological exam at NASA, dashing his hopes of becoming an astronaut. The increased combined income would have been enough for Diaz's character to afford surgery on her foot--four of her toes were amputated and it hurts to walk. Enter the box. One night a box is left at their front door, followed by a stranger (Frank Langella) with a disfigured face who explains the nature of the box. There is a button that if pressed will result in two things: the wife and husband will receive a million dollars tax-free in cash, and somewhere in the world someone they don't know will die.
The couple is given twenty-four hours to decide whether they'll push the button or not. If they don't, some other family will be given the offer. They spend the next day debating about how crazy the man is, how preposterous the offer is, what they could do with the money, and whether they could live with the fact of being responsible for another person's death. At the last minute, the wife pushes the button, which reminded me of Eve and the apple--an intentional allusion or not, I'm unsure.
The first half of this movie felt very eery and engaging. I quite liked it. Langella plays the stranger with a combination of calm and foreboding. And Diaz puts on a better performance than I'm used to seeing from her. Marsden, tolerable. The whole premise for this movie is great? If you knew someone would die because of it, would you take the money? Richard Matheson got the idea from his wife's philosophy class, if I recall correctly.
My main gripe with the film is that the big reveal is basically revealed halfway through the movie. The majority of the mystique and intrigue is thrown out the window in favor of surreal visual effects and a conspiracy theory I had trouble buying into. What mystery is left is simply trying to guess the fate of Diaz's and Marsden's characters ... oh, and that of their son.
Did I forget to mention the son before? Well, that's understandable given the fact that he was nothing but a prop and a cheap one at that in the film. Marsden and Diaz don't play parents, as the kid is portrayed as little more than an impudent stranger living in their home. He didn't feel like a part of the family dynamic at all. That would be my second gripe about the movie--lack of sympathy for the characters.
So, by the time the big finale approaches, I already know what is going to happen, but it's teased out for ten or fifteen minutes with overwrought dramatics that fell flat with me. And combine that with the conspiracy element and I didn't care for the ending at all.
People beat up on M. Night Shamalan (sp?) for his films, but I gotta say, I'd watch The Happening again with a smile on my face before bothering with this movie again. This movie was hyped as "from the guy who brought you Donnie Darko" and now I'm less eager to see Donnie Darko. Do yourself a favor if you watch this movie, and stop it at the point when Frank Langella comes back to the house to retrieve the box. The end of that scene leaves the story on a great note, even if it's midway through the whole movie. Everything beyond that just doesn't measure up in my eyes.

Eastern Conference Finals, Pistons @ Celtics, Game 5, Wednesday

Re: Eastern Conference Finals, Pistons @ Celtics, Game 5, Wednesday
Here's my observations from last night's game.
1. Stuckey is going to make Billups expendable soon. Maybe next year? Someone will want to trade for Billups thinking that he is still in his prime. Stuckey can play.
2. Detroit needs a young beefy/tall big man to give them some garbage duty minutes. Max and Amir are keepers, but they need somebody with young legs AND height AND beef to bang down low. Max and Amir each have 2 out of the 3 characteristics. The Pistons are making Perkins look like Moses Malone.
3. Flip is doing a decent job rotating guys in and out. He's done a good job this year. But if the Stones lose, he's gotta go. They need a screamer/yeller coach. I wonder if Avery Johnson is interested?
4. Paul Pierce is a tough cover for Prince. Pierce doesn't rely on quickness or height so Tay can't negate him with his length. Come to think of it, I don't know how Pierce scores so much exactly. Somehow he gets it done. Also, he looks like a rat.
4. Boston is not a much better team than the Pistons. Detroit gave the series away in game 3. If they lose in this year's ECF again, they've got to shakeup the roster. The chemistry isn't right as far as mental toughness. These guys may like each other just fine, but they need more chips on shoulders.
5. Lakers will roll over Boston because of the backcourt matchup. Detroit would probably lose to them as well, but matches up better.

The development of the city center and the region are inseparable. Montreal's downtown is rapidly losing ground to the region's other job centers, and if this trend persists, it will look more and more like the scarcely visited downtown areas of many American cities.
The cause of this phenomenon is simple: for about fifty years, and before the adoption of the Metropolitan Construction and Development Plan by the Montreal Metropolitan Community, urban planning on the regional scale displayed a lack of coherence. The Montreal region has the largest amount of white zoned land in the province of Quebec in comparison to its long-term land needs. This decentralization process manifests itself as a scattering of employment sites around the Island of Montreal without physical barriers limiting land use surrounding the island.
It is therefore essential to develop public transportation in Montreal and to improve pedestrian infrastructure downtown if we want to preserve the commercial, economic, and cultural vitality in the heart of the city. This would entail increasing the amount of services offered, the number of metro access points, and favoring mixed-mode transportation.
We believe that the development and redevelopment of the public domain should first and foremost aim towards the appropriation of space by human beings, and therefore pedestrians. It is in this manner that developments in the entertainment district of the Quartier des Spectacles, following the example of the International District, seek to make the pedestrian experience more interesting and stimulating. This in turn increases travel by foot and therefore the sphere of influence of metro stations.
And the same goes for Saint Catherine Street, which should necessarily be accessible on foot, bike, taxi, or public transportation as well as by car. The downtown, which claims to be a daytime and nighttime destination, should be accessible to everyone, at all times, and by all forms of transportation used by those frequenting the greater Montreal region.
It is not only useless, but irresponsible to invest large sums of money in order to make this area a regional and international destination if, ultimately, it is only accessible to a limited clientele – either tourists or residents living in the city center and its surrounding neighborhoods. It is also unrealistic to think that a family of two adults and three children living in the suburbs will take public transportation to come attend an outdoor concert during one of the festivals held in the Quartier des Spectacles.
It is above all unrealistic to think that the availability and ease of parking are not taken into account by families, couples, older people, or those less mobile when choosing whether or not to go to Montreal's downtown. These factors are essential, as demonstrated by the success of the Étoile auditorium in the Dix30 shopping center.
The centrifugal force of urban fragmentation is in the process of eroding what remains of downtown Montreal's centrality in the region. Parallel with this, the number of parking spaces in the city center is predicted to significantly decline over the course of the coming years. In the very short term, the current offerings could undoubtedly respond to parking needs. But in the middle and long terms, the limited number of spaces will become an "access barrier" – something that will considerably limit the number of potential visitors to the area.
Is this the strategy that Montreal wants to advance to inject life into its downtown?
Why should cities aim to preserve the popularity and accessibility of downtown areas?

Why Node and Scala will dry up: Go will drink their milkshake
Node and Scala are quickly becoming languages of choice for building scalable, asynchronous web services and applications. However, Go, the language designed and in use at Google, presents a compelling alternative with few of the warts of Node and Scala. While Node and Scala are specifically targeting developers as the tools of choice for server side architecture, Go is actually a better tool for the job and will prove to be the ultimate winner.
In this talk I'll draw from my recent experience building a scalable architecture for storing time series data in real-time for http://errplane.com. The Errplane API started as a Scala-based service that was recently rewritten in Go. I'll talk about my specific experience writing a scalable server architecture in the two languages and the road blocks to learning and working with each. I'll then contrast the philosophical and stylistic differences between Node, Scala, and Go with specifics on how Go is superior for concurrency, understandability, code sharing, and learning curve.
Paul DixPaul Dix is a co-founder at Errplane, a service for instrumenting and monitoring applications and infrastructure that automatically sends alerts based on detected anomalies. Paul is the author of "Service Oriented Design with Ruby and Rails." He is a frequent speaker at conferences and user groups including Web 2.0, RubyConf, RailsConf, and GoRuCo. Paul is the founder and organizer of the NYC Machine Learning Meetup, which has over 2,900 members. In the past he has worked at startups and larger companies like Google, Microsoft, and McAfee. He lives in New York City.

The goal posts have been recently changed, and whereas a few years ago, data that had been gathered at the publics expense (via the taxpayer) was freely available to the general public, now has a price on it because the government no longer funds the work of these institutions. This is not necessarily the wish of the members of these institutions, who in general believe in the free dissemination of their data is part of their public duty, but has been brought about by changes in government policy. In these new circumstances they are working out how best to combine their wish to make the data available, with the necessity to fund the continuing work of their organisations.

How do you handle stress? The answer to that question will tell you a lot.
Before we answer this question, first we need to celebrate! We have 5 winners of our next Online Bible Studies book, Stress-Less Living signed by author Tracie Miles. These ladies signed up for the online study and let us know a stressful situation in their lives. They were randomly selected. Congratulations to:
- Erica~ email beginning ericamariev
- Pam~ email beginning lovdogs69
- Deborah Fultner~ email beginning dfultner49
- Tammy~ email beginning tammy1
- Erin W~ email beginning hectormom08
Winners email our lovely OBS Executive Assistant, Angie at firstname.lastname@example.com with your name and mailing address. We will get your book in the mail to you as soon as you do this! Congrats and thanks so much for sharing and joining us in Online Bible Studies!
If you are new to my blog, welcome. The blog may say "Melissa Taylor" at the top, but it also doubles as the Proverbs 31 Online Bible Studies blog. (New design is on the way~ we are expected to transition between May-July.)
Our upcoming Online Bible Study has some powerful possibilities. It's all about stress. Living with less of it~ and we all give a big whoppin' AMEN to that! Unlike past Bible studies done here, this one will be more of a classroom format. We will be studying stress. What the world says about it and what God says about it. To learn more about the Stressed-Less Living OBS (Online Bible Study), click here.
Back to our question of the day~ How do you handle stress?
One thing that I promise you here is that my OBS team and I are all about being real. That's what P31 OBS is all about, Real hope for real life. So here I go~
I'm not proud of it, but I've been an emotional eater my entire life. When I'm stressed, my typical pattern is to engage in mindless eating. I'm not the type to fix a big bowl of ice cream or a heaping helping of macaroni~ I'm more of a nervous picker. I'll pick at the ice cream (one spoon full out of the carton). Grab a cracker out of the box. Get a handful of nuts. And look out if there is any kind of dip around. Hummus may be good for you, but when you turn to it just to emotionally or out of stress just to eat for no good reason…well that's not good. That sums up my weight issue. (Yes, I've done Made to Crave and I fully believe in it. It's all about going to God and not food.) I confess, food can be my "go to" when I'm sad, mad, or stressed. And then guilt and disgust sets in. Which just leads to more stress. I am a work in progress. Taking baby steps. And getting a little bit better the more I seek God and surround myself with supportive sisters like you.
What I find, is that I'll stress mostly when I'm unequipped to handle a situation. On a more positive note, I'm a very proactive person. I don't stay in pits. I visit occasionally, but my wise mind tells me to not settle for being a pit dweller. I seek what is needed to give me the tools need to get through. That is typically faith that I can't see and sometime can't feel~I choose it because I believe in God. God's Word equips me for it in Hebrews 11:1, "Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see." (NIV) With that confidence, I begin, with God, to do what I can to be given to tools, information, and sometimes people to handle the situation.
If you haven't signed up for the next study, where you can be real~no masks worn~where you are loved, valued, believed in, and accepted , then I want to invite you to join today. It's not too late at all! The study begins in a little under 2 weeks on April 7th. Invite a friend or 2 to join you if you want. Order your book from Proverbs 31 Ministries and it will be personally signed by the author, Tracie Miles. You will also receive a free 50 page study guide to accompany the book.
So girls, tell me. How do you handle stress? Not only will your answer tell you a lot about yourself, but it also could win you a free book and conference call series! Two winners will be selected. To qualify make sure you are signed up for the study and share in the comment section how you handle stress.
***If you are receiving this via email, click here to get to the OBS blog to leave your comment.
I can't wait to read what you have to say! Thanks so much for visiting today!
Stressed-Less Blessings~

Is this to be Kirk and Spock's finest hour or thier last, we've not sure at the moment but there's one thing we can tell you, there's not a piece of Bamboo in sight, or Diamonds or even the chance for Jim to get his Gunpowder formula right.
So all in, can you save Jim, Spock and the rest of the crew? Their fates are in your hands.
Live long and prosper,
Gareth and Lady Eleanor

Deal Reached To Combine Caltrain Electrification and HSR
This is big news – the California High Speed Rail Authority, Caltrain, and local governments have reached a deal to split the costs and fund Caltrain electrification and the downtown extension. This would not only provide a major, long-awaited set of improvements to Caltrain, it would help bring high speed rail service to SF and the Peninsula more quickly. And this would not be possible without the high speed rail project.
Hoping to bring the bonanza of California high-speed rail funds to the Bay Area much quicker, local and state leaders on Wednesday unveiled a strategy to split the $1.5 billion cost to electrify the Caltrain line.
The plan would pave the way for quicker commuter trains to zip between San Francisco and San Jose as early as 2018 and for statewide bullet trains to run sooner than expected.
The agreement calls for the state to spend $706 million in available high-speed rail bond funds while local counties would kick in $180 million in sales tax revenues and $500 million in federal grants. The money is there, and the only thing standing in the way is approval from the state Legislature, long divided on the state's plan to spend $100 billion on high-speed rail.
The idea for the Peninsula is simple: Electrify the popular 52-mile Caltrain diesel line, complete with bigger stations in San Jose, Millbrae and San Francisco. That could allow the financially struggling commuter agency to turn around its fortunes by running more trains at a cheaper cost to taxpayers.
Later, perhaps in the 2020s, the state's high-speed rail trains could share the two tracks with Caltrain if the state manages to secure the funding to link the Bay Area to the Central Valley and Southern California. Previous plans pegged statewide service to Los Angeles starting at 2034, with four tracks in the Bay Area.
Caltrain needs electrification to survive. That's the only way it can increase speeds, increase capacity, increase reliability, and therefore increase its revenues. Additionally, electrification eliminates diesel emissions on the corridor, and grade separations dramatically improve safety.
For high speed rail, the benefits are equally significant. The "blended plan" allows bullet trains to serve downtown San Francisco at an earlier date and at a lower cost. That brings an Initial Operating Segment – and revenue service – closer to reality.
Eventually two more tracks may be needed, and that can happen when the demand is there. Presumably by that time the current crop of anti-rail, right-wing NIMBYs will have moved on and a new generation of residents and leaders will understand the need to develop better infrastructure, just as our predecessors did.
This wouldn't be possible without high speed rail funding. And it won't happen if the legislature does not vote to authorize spending voter-approved bond money. Will Senator Joe Simitian destroy Caltrain and deny his constituents the chance for better passenger rail service?
The Peninsula NIMBYs certainly hope so. The Community Coalition on High Speed Rail, the Planning and Conservation League-backed anti-rail right-wingers, recently put out an email to their members calling on them to kill Caltrain electrification and to kill high speed rail:
The blended program has many issues and with a four-track option alive and the possibility of a phased implementation, the threat will hang over the heads of the homeowners. In addition, there are unknown consequences for traffic, safety, noise, vibration, and gate down times.
Should the Legislature vote for a high-speed rail program without any funds in sight for the even the first legal section? With every single independent agency having substantial issues? With ridership still challenged? Without an independent review of the numbers recommended by the PRG?
The people voted for the bond money to be used for high-speed rail systems, not local transportation. Caltrain needs modernization and California needs strong regional transportation, but perhaps another way.
None of the transportation infrastructure Californians use on a daily basis would have been built in the last 100 years if NIMBY objections like these had been allowed to win the day. And of course, the passenger rail line on the Peninsula was there long before any of these NIMBYs were born or before any of these Peninsula cities existed.
Still, they are not likely to prevail here. Caltrain electrification is a must-have for the Peninsula's residents and businesses. It will help bring HSR to San Francisco sooner and for less money. Those two factors alone should help get Bay Area legislators to vote for HSR money later this year – even if Joe Simitian still intends to throw in his lot with the Republicans and the Tea Party.

Matteo Brighi will remain at Roma until the end of the season despite again attracting the attention of Genoa.
"Their interest in him is dated, seeing as Genoa had already made an approach for the player during the summer," revealed agent Vanni Puzzolo.
"I think a January move is impossible too, as I can't see Roma letting go of a player who has only just extended his contract until 2014.
"It's true that anything can happen in football, but Matteo will stay at Roma. He is happy, the club is happy, I see no reason for a change."
Brighi has started to feature more heavily for Claudio Ranieri's side in recent weeks after being widely regarded as a squad player at the start of the campaign.
His performances have been so good of late that some are even talking about him returning to the international set-up.
"Italy boss Cesare Prandelli knows him well as he coached him at Parma, but I don't want to do like others and start calling for his inclusion after three good games," added Puzzolo.
"We are convinced in Brighi's ability and all he needs to do is just calmly continue on this path which he has taken."

Medieval Children's Literature Book Published
Submitted by Milica on Sat, 2003-10-25 07:00
A new anthology of pre-16th century children's literature has been published by Routledge. Medieval Literature for Children, an Anthology, edited by Daniel Kline of the University of Alaska, was recently published by Routledge and covers material written for children from the 8th to 16th centuries. The text includes translations from Latin, Old English and medieval Welsh as well as some text in Middle English, and covers a variety of genres from drama to fables to didactic material. Each title is introduced by a critical essay. While the book is expensive ($95.00) it does cover material not normally found in medieval anthologies.

Why We Built the System
1. If we look only at casualties related to Hurricane Sandy, nearly 10 percent of the fatalities were attributed to elderly individuals that had accidents (falling down stairwells, etc.) during the initial power outage. These fatalities may have been avoided if they had access to emergency lighting, which was not dependent upon utility power.
2. The system also posed a challenge; how do we make it in such a way that it can be turned on/off remotely, and how do we make it on a budget?
3. Lastly, we wanted to give back to the preparedness community, and build something for one of our valued Prepper Link family members.
4. Continuation of our $150 Solar Kit project

After many years of being out in the field training different breeds of gun dogs I quickly discovered what type of dog I wanted to be hunting behind. Hours and hours of studying pedigrees, researching blood lines, and talking with breeders all over the country I was able to build a kennel which holds the best lines of gun dogs in the west. The genetics we have in our kennel are proven to give you dogs that will serve as loving companions and family dogs, but once in the field they are full of drive and are able to naturally find, point, and retrieve birds; providing you with an enjoyable hunting experience.

I found this amazing deal on this Sans Souci striped dress at Marshalls. I think the dress was $19.99. How could I resist? Here, I've styled it 4 ways.
I added brooches to each end of this thrifted necklace, layered a v-neck sweater over the dress and carried my Juicy tote. The flats were free from a styling job I did and are from H&M.
Here, I added my Brooklyn Industries black topper and styled it with my Esprit tote and Aldo flats.
This is the tote bag that I got as a free gift with purchase when I attended the Henri Bendel event.
I think I like the above outfit the best. What about you? The cardigan is Sinclaire 10, the heels have bows and the polka dot purse is Aldo.

Portsmouth midfielder Niko Kranjcar is reportedly attracting the attention of Roma after an impressive campaign for the South Coast club.
Kranjcar's eye-catching displays helped Portsmouth to FA Cup glory as well as eighth place in the Premiership, a run of form that he has continued in Austria and Switzerland as Croatia secured their progression to the knock-out phase of Euro 2008.
With Amantino Mancini and Ludovic Guily set to leave the Stadio Olimpico in the coming weeks, Luciano Spalletti is reportedly scouring Europe for wide players as he looks to strengthen his squad ready for the new season.
Should Roma lodge a bid with Pompey, they are likely to face competition from Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger who has been tracking the 23-year olds progress with a view to making a £15 million move this summer.

A homeless man found dead Saturday morning likely slipped and fell off the river bluffs, St. Paul police said.
Homeless-outreach volunteers found the body of a man about 10:30 a.m. near Kellogg Park in downtown St. Paul.
Police said the man, whose identity has not been released, accidentally fell from the bluffs, which are about 60 feet high.
It looks to be "simply an accident," said St. Paul police Cmdr. Paul Iovino. No foul play is suspected.
Iovino said it is unclear how long the man had been dead before his body was found, but "certain signs seem to indicate that this was recent."

Dec. 10, 2012
KOLKATA, INDIA – Like many Bangladeshi girls, Shohela* loves dance, especially the traditional kinds of dance her culture is known for. So she was thrilled when she found out she could dance and earn much-needed money in India.
But as soon as Shohela arrived in Kolkata, she learned she would be required to do much more than dance. She had been trafficked to a brothel in a major red-light district. That same night, she was sold to the first man who would pay to rape her.
In late November, the Kolkata police called IJM for assistance with a rescue operation. They believed two brothels in a major red-light district were selling underage girls for sex. One of the two targeted brothels was the one to which Shohela had been trafficked – less than a week earlier.
When the rescue team arrived, the first brothel was empty. But at the second, they found one girl who looked to be in her late teens – it was Shohela.
In the brothel, police officers asked Shohela questions, eager to learn more about her and how long she had been trapped in the brothel. At first she seemed reluctant to answer; after her trust had been abused so much by her traffickers, she seemed afraid to share too much information.. One of the social workers asked the police officers if they could move to another room, so Shohela would not have to answer the questions in front of the other young women who worked in the brothel. In the quiet of a nearby room, Shohela started to share the awful truth.
As police gathered evidence, social workers helped other officers escort Shohela safely back to the police station. She bravely shared the truth again, this time in a statement that was recorded and may be used in the case against her traffickers.
Now Shohela is safe at an aftercare home, beginning to process the pain of the betrayal and abuse she endured. But the social worker who was there with her on the night of rescue says it is amazing to see how much joy the girl already has – joy that sometimes takes months if not years to restore to trafficking survivors.
IJM Kolkata Director Biju Mathew added: "Rescuing girls within the week of their bondage is like pulling someone out of a raging river, just before they drown. The pain is present but recovery is imminent."

Analysts polled by FactSet had expected the company to earn 47 cents a share for the quarter. Shares ended trading on Thursday down 1.4% to $47.25.

JEFFERSON COUNTY — A group of Jefferson County residents is organizing to make some changes in county government.
Jeffco5 is asking residents to consider a proposal to increase the number of its commissioners from the current three to five, which they say could be a potential question on the 2014 ballot.
The members view the current set-up of three commissioners as insufficient for such a large county. (Population is 534,543 according to the Colorado Department of Local Affairs.)
The group says a five-commissioner board would offer more representative government.
But Jeffco5's premise was not an entirely welcome concept to commissioners Don Rosier and Faye Griffin at an Aug. 27 briefing meeting, during which the issue was discussed.
Bernie McDowell, of Lookout Mountain, who attended the meeting, said, "Commissioner Casey Tighe tried to get us a public hearing, but Rosier and Griffin did not want to do that."
Karen Oxman, a founding member of Jeffco5 and former Golden city councilor, also in attendance, said, "Rosier and Griffin appeared to be frustrated that their ability to govern was questioned and that a 5- member board would be better."
She said different members of Jeffco5 from all over the county have spoken to commissioners individually to encourage them to, "Let the people decide with a vote."
After the meeting, Kathryn Heider, public information officer, said there will be a telephone town hall so citizens can weigh in on the subject. A mid-October date is likely.
Tighe said, "I think its a valid question. It will cost a little more, we have to find out if citizens want to pay for that."
Rosier said he thinks the issue is coming from a small group, but he said, "We are going to talk some more about it."
County Administrator Ralph Schell, who presented an analysis of the format of other counties with five-commission boards, (Adams County recently went from three to five) said "After the town halls, the commissioners will talk about whether they want to put anything forward to the voters."
He said budget issues are a concern and estimated about $325,000 as the additional annual cost to expand to five, and $425,000 as one-time capital annual operating cost to add more offices.
Pam Anderson, county clerk, said there would not be a significant cost associated with an election.
The current structure of Jefferson County government adheres to the state constitution.
According to Colorado Revised Statutes, (30-10-306.5) any county with a population of 70,000 or more may increase board members.
Michelle Poolet, of Lookout Mountain, favors the increase in commissioners, saying the county surpassed 70,000 in the 1950s. "Why hasn't this been done?" she asked.
According to Schell, the county has been asked twice in the last 37 years to consider increasing the number of commissioners and both times (1976 and 1994) voters said no.
Carl Neu, a former Lakewood city councilor, calls the current system "arcane."
"The three-member board was meant for the early days when the county was rural, but things have changed."

Paris-based Groupe Danone continued to pursue a growth agenda despite a challenging economic climate. During the first half of 2010, company leadership announced several business deals that aligned with the company's strategy to grow product volumes and expand into large emerging markets.
In March, Chiquita Brands International, Inc. and Groupe Danone formed a joint venture to market fruit beverages. The agreement, which is based on Chiquita's Just Fruit in a Bottle product line, made the two companies financial and operational partners. Danone will provide management under the agreement. Chiquita will handle marketing, sales and supply chain services.
"The combination of Danone's healthy European footprint together with Chiquita's operational expertise in fruit-based drinks will create exciting growth opportunities," said Bernard Hours, co-chief operating officer of Danone.
Groupe Danone also made acquisitions and alliances designed to broaden the company's reach in medical nutrition and dairy products and to strengthen the company's market position in those categories.
In June, Danone North America Inc. announced it would acquire Medical Nutrition U.S.A., Inc., a developer and distributor of nutrition-medicine products. The acquisition is expected to reinforce the company's position as a leader in Europe in the advanced medical nutrition category while expanding market opportunities in the United States, according to Danone. The merger closed July 22.
"The benefit of this transaction relies in the strong complementarities both in terms of product ranges and channels of distribution," Danone said. "Medical Nutrition Inc. has developed a solid access to the very promising long-term care channel while Nutricia's products in the U.S. are mainly aimed at infants and distributed in pharmacies."
Further advancing Groupe Danone's position in the dairy category was the merger of the company's fresh dairy business with Unimilk, the second-largest manufacturer of dairy products and baby food in Russia. The deal makes Danone-Unimilk the largest provider of dairy products in the Commonwealth of Independent States (C.I.S.).
The greatest benefits of the merger will be realized in Russia where the entity will have 21% market share with an east-towest geographical presence. Danone's operations are mainly in western Russia where it offers products in the value-added health segment. Unimilk, which has production plants in Belarus, Ukraine and Russia, operates mainly in eastern Russia.
Combined annual sales of the new entity are forecast at approximately €1.5 billion ($1.9 billion). The two companies plan to invest at least €500 million ($618.7 million) in Danone-Unimilk over the next five to seven years.
"The new entity will become the leader for dairy products in the C.I.S. area as a whole, and particularly in Russia," the company said. "Danone-Unimilk will draw strength from the tie-up between two fast-growing businesses offering strong complementarities in terms of geographies, product ranges and distribution networks, giving the new entity the benefit of significant sales and cost synergies."
The first-half deal making became apparent in positive financial results. Underlying net income rose 10% in the first half of 2010. Underlying net income during the half was €848 million ($1,105 million), compared with €722 million during the same period in 2009. Sales were €8,364 million ($10,901 million), up 7% from €7,520 million. The company projects like-for-like sales growth of 6% for full year 2010.
In its first-half results report, the company said it "… assumes that the financial, economic and social crises will continue to weigh on consumption trends in Europe, while emerging markets are expected to keep developing well overall." CP

Phosphate mining damages environment, but also drives economy, study finds
Published By: Bradenton Herald
Phosphate mining damages environment, but also drives economy, study finds
MANATEE -- A new study predicts considerable damage to Central Florida's environment if four proposed phosphate mining projects win approval, but contends that mitigation would more than make up for long-term adverse effects.
"Mitigation" refers to methods of offsetting impacts to natural resources.
About 9,800 acres of wetlands and close to 50 miles of streams would be damaged or destroyed if four proposed mining projects, including one in Manatee County, win approval, said John Fellows, project manager for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which commissioned the two-year study.
But Fellows said he expected that, as reviews of individual projects move forward, the number of acres impacted "will probably be reduced."
And there would be 6,340 more jobs because of the mines, and $29.1 billion in value added to the area's economy, Fellows said.
The study concluded that, over time, the cumulative economic impacts of not allowing mining would be substantial, Fellows said.
The Corps' Areawide Environmental Impact Statement reviewed four proposed mines and two expected to be developed across the 1.32 million-acre Central Florida Phosphate District.
Its purview included the 3,635-acre proposed Wingate East Mine, near Duette; and
the 24,509-acre Pine Level/Keys Tract, in southeastern Manatee County.
The study attempted to discern the cumulative effect of mining on the environment of Manatee and its neighboring phosphate-producing counties.
"The areawide (study) does not shy away from saying that mining is an impactive activity," Fellows noted in an interview Friday with the Herald. "A lot of the potential impacts associated are addressed through either the Corps' own permitting processes or other agencies' permitting processes.
"We'll work with the applicant to avoid and minimize impacted acreage," said Fellows. "The figures probably will come down."
As part of its continued review of the four applications, the Corps will look at how to offset impacts to wetlands and surface waters and streams, he emphasized.
Environmentalists criticized the report, saying it is too narrow in scope to adequately address complex environmental issues, said Glenn Compton, chairman of ManaSota-88 Inc., a local nonprofit environmental research group.
"Because of the limited scope of the AEIS, its usefulness in evaluating the social, economic and environmental impacts the phosphate industry is having in Florida is also limited," he said.
Some of the issues Compton would like addressed: Cumulative impacts on human health as related to increased radiation levels associated with phosphate mining and waste disposal, and data about the tremendous energy use of phosphate plants and resulting pressure for more power plants.
The Corps should also have reviewed water and air pollution, and threats to water supplies involving the underground aquifer, and what he called "the real possibility of dam breaks" contaminating waters downstream from phosphate facilities, Compton said.
Charlie Hunsicker, Manatee County's natural resources director, declined comment Friday, saying he is still reading the 25-pound document. But he plans to provide a full report to the county commission at a later date.
"The study is intended to inform the public as to the potential impacts of phosphate mining and how such impacts may be mitigated, information which is useful to the Corps and the public during review of pending applications governed by provisions of the federal Clean Water Act…," said Dee Allen, mine permitting manager for Mosaic.
The company will be seeking a permit to develop the Wingate East Mine, with future plans to develop the Pine Level/Keys Tract as well, she said.
The study's overarching topics include effects on surface water reserves, groundwater reserves, water quality, ecological resources, and economics, she noted.
"While the study generally finds phosphate mining's impacts are minor, in a few areas it finds that greater impacts would occur without mitigation," Allen said.
The study accentuates the good job phosphate companies are doing with respect to modern reclamation practices and the ability to restore wetlands and habitats disturbed by mining, she said.
"Good mitigation is the basis for continued mining," Allen said, adding "It's about the excellence and importance of restoration."
"That's the basis of continuing to mine," she said.
In terms of conclusions, Allen said that while the study does reach conclusions about the impact of mining in general, it does not make any final permitting decisions.
"When it comes to the Corps approving what will ultimately be mined or not, there's still a lot of work to be done on individual applications," she said.
"We have as a company made huge advancements with regard to reclamation," said Jackie Barron, Mosaic's public affairs manager.
Mining companies are trying to recycle and reuse water as much as they can to cut down on ecological impacts, said Thomas L. Crisman, Ph.D., a freshwater ecologist at Tampa's University of South Florida.
And while mitigation can be an environmentally-effective strategy to counter the destruction that phosphate mining visits on the land, it is not a cure-all, he said.
"Collectively, we have 50 years of experience on reclamation," he said. "What you have to be careful of: Are you going to restore that land? No, you can't put it back exactly as it was. Are you going to reclaim that landscape? Yes, but it's not like an exact copy."
"My thing is: We're not restoring the landscape the way it was, we're reclaiming it to meet goals of conservation, water use and water storage," he added. "You give value back to the land."
Scientists have found it's possible to re-create a wetland, and within two years, it will look natural, he said. Within five years, it begins to actually function as a wetland as well, he said.
After that, animals come back "pretty darn fast," Crisman added.
The study's compilation was directed by the Corps, and authored by its staff members, and those of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency; the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, and the consulting firm CH2M HILL, Fellows said. Although the multimillion-dollar study was paid for by Mosaic and CF Industries, Inc., the two phosphate companies seeking permits for mines, the Corps was the source of its conclusions.
A "review period" about the study's contents continues through June 3, he said.

LeAnn Rimes: Leave My Ovaries Alone!by Free Britney at . Comments
This week on the LeAnn Rimes Twitter watch, the outspoken country star is shooting down rumors that she is expecting her first child with husband Eddie Cibrian.
She's not, and they're not even trying, thankyouverymuch.
Often seen toting around Cibrian's sons Jake and Mason from his previous marriage to Brandi Glanville, the couple were married in April - but don't look for them to grow the family with a baby of their own anytime soon. Says Rimes on Twitter:
"I've never even tried so please stop discussing my ovaries LOL," she said. "Unfortunately it's beyond not true & not something I feel people should throw around."
"Cause it takes some couples a long time to conceive & some never can. The rumors don't offend me, I just think its crazy that people up make articles out of nonsense, so when it comes to me and all the speculation I have to laugh :)"
Hard to argue with her there. We're just glad she, Eddie and Brandi are on relatively good terms ... at least for the time being. This minute. That situation is combustible.

Exercise is more fun when you have friends to do it with. That's why I was delighted when we were invited by some of church mates to join their weekly jogging.
It was last Saturday when we headed to a police camp near our neighborhood and took advantage of their huge space to jog – or rather walk. I didn't know they allow civilians inside their police camp but I'm glad they did. When we got inside I saw other civilians too, some even old men and women, jogging around the "square" oval. hehe
Of course, look who came with us. Little Zack was lucky he has his Dad to push his heavy stroller. He was like that sitting pretty while we huffed and puffed. If you're wondering why the long face, I guess 5:00 am wake up time must have been too early for him. Just look at his sad face. Actually, it's my fault. We watched a movie the night so he got to sleep later than his bedtime. Next Friday, I'll make sure he'll sleep really early.
While we were there, we saw hordes of policemen marching side-by-side like they were joining on a parade. It was nice to see them in their full uniform. We stopped to watch them for a bit. It's not that often we see hundreds of policemen in one place.
Anyway, speaking of parades, in Austin there's a different kind of parade called CowParade. No, they're not parading live livestock but rather cows made from fiberglass. Each cow is beautifully painted with different colors one of which you can see below.
Thanks to US Money Reserve and other sponsors of this event because lots of sick children at Dell Children's Medical Center will benefit from its proceeds.

Ghosts of the Bluegrass
Authors: James McCormick and Macy Wyat
In Ghosts of the Bluegrass, James McCormick and Macy Wyatt document unexplained tales from locales across the Commonwealth, including rural farms, downtown buildings, and even college campuses. Surveying Kentucky ghost stories both past and present, the book discusses haunted places, poltergeists, communication with the dead, and ghosts who linger to complete unfinished business. The book even features a chilling firsthand account by a nineteenth-century family who were haunted in their Breckinridge County home.
