6 Thanksgiving Foods Pregnant Women Should Avoid
With Thanksgiving just around the corner, here are some tips to keep in mind when deciding what's safe and not safe to eat.
Don't worry, we won't ruin all the fun. It IS a whole holiday revolving around eating after all. Here are just a few reminders of what experts have deemed safe, or off limits for this year. Happy Thanksgiving!
1. Raw Vegetables
The issue: Toxoplasmosis
The rule: You don't have to avoid the crudité altogether but be sure to wash, and re-wash any produce before eating it, especially if it's not going to be cooked. (If you're a guest for dinner, consider volunteering to bring this so you can double wash at home, ask the host to oblige your pregnancy safety needs or just skip the baby carrots this year.)
2. Still No Soft Cheese
The issue: Listeria
The rule: On your first doctor's visit they probably told you to stay away from soft, unpasteurized cheeses like brie, goat cheese, etc. and you might have thought, "No problem. When does that come up anyway?" Well, now! Cheese balls and cheese plates usually appear at Thanksgiving feasts so this year head for the cheddar and Swiss.
3. Raw Batter
The issue: Salmonella
The rule: If that cookie, brownie or cake batter you're making includes uncooked eggs, it's not safe to sample until baked. Sorry.
4. Smoked Meats & Fish
The issue: Listeria
The rule: Another appetizer to avoid, smoked meats and fish aren't actually cooked so the listeria bugs aren't killed in the process. Pate from a can though, is considered safe.
5. Fresh Apple Cider
The issue: E. Coli
The rule: No unpasteurized juices for you, so avoid any juice or ciders that haven't gone through the process.
6. Stuffing Inside the Turkey
The issue: Salmonella
The rule: When you're preggers, all stuffing should be prepared on the side. The inside of the bird won't get hot enough to kill off all the bugs that could potentially lurk in there. Better to bake up a hot pan of stuffing separately.
Bonus: Turkey Safety 101
Since you're likely to be handling a raw bird in the near future, let us remind you of a couple of culinary truths:
- Wash your hands with soap and water after you touch raw poultry. And be sure to disinfect any surfaces the turkey comes into contact with as well.
- Eating an undercooked turkey is very dangerous to pregnant women so follow these guidelines for thawing to reduce the risk: If it's frozen, you'll need to thaw the turkey in the fridge for several days ahead of time. The guideline is 24 hours in the fridge for every 5 pounds. For a faster thaw, soak your frozen turkey in the sink, covered with cold water and replacing the water every 30 minutes.
- The turkey is done when the internal temperature reaches 180 degrees Farenheit.

A Provo man has been arrested for allegedly having sex with a 13-year-old and for having a nude picture of a 16-year-old on his phone.
Someone reported to the Provo police that a 19-year-old man allegedly had been having sex with a 13-year-old. Investigators interviewed the man on Thursday, and he allegedly admitted he and the girl had engaged in sex at least six times from November to January, according to a probable cause statement filed in 4th District Court.

The man's sister also brought his phone to the police, who found a picture of a topless 16-year-old Provo girl on the device. The man admitted to the police that the 16-year-old had sent him the picture and had asked him to delete it, but he did not, according to the probable casue statement.
Police booked the man into Utah County jail on Thursday on suspicion of sexual exploitation of a minor and six counts of rape of a child.
The statement does not detail how the man knew the girls.

Suit: LeSean McCoy stranded woman at rest stop after party bus assault
Philadelphia Eagles running back LeSean McCoy and his bodyguard "Big John" in December pinned down a female passenger on McCoy's party bus in, poured beverages on the woman and then stranded her along the New Jersey Turnpike, a lawsuit filed last week in the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas claims.
The suit alleging assault and battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, false imprisonment and negligence names McCoy, Big John and Premier Luxury Rentals, Inc.
According to the complaint, McCoy, Big John and about three other men and fifteen women were traveling back to Philadelphia from a New York City nightclub in the early morning hours of Dec. 19 on a party bus rented from Premier Luxury.
McCoy and some of the male guests around 3:30 a.m. allegedly began to spray the female guests – including the plaintiff, who is suing under the pseudonym "Mary Roe" – with water.
When Roe protested, McCoy directed Big John to "get her," the suit states.
According to the complaint, "Big John and / or McCoy then struck the plaintiff in the face, causing her to fall to the ground, physically restrained her while she was laying on the ground, poured a beverage onto her hair, clothes and body, and forcibly dragged her and pushed her."
McCoy allegedly ordered the driver to stop, "forcibly ejected" the woman from the bus and attempted to leave her by the side of the turnpike.
Court documents claim Roe was allowed back on the bus after some of her fellow passengers protested, but was a short time later stranded at the Molly Pitcher service area in Cranbury, N.J. after she told McCoy she'd called police.
After reporting the assault to New Jersey State Police, Roe had to take two trains to get back to Philadelphia.
The woman claims she sustained "serious injuries" during the alleged assault, including "head trauma and injury," a spinal disc protrusion, sprains to her back and neck, bruises on her forehead, arm, leg, foot and chest and "a severe shock to the nerves and nervous system, which injuries are or may be permanent."
She's asking for compensatory and punitive damages in excess of $50,000 to reimburse her for medical expenses, as well as "humiliation, pain and suffering" and a loss of earning capacity.

Article by: Peter Dörrie
The story of maritime fishing in Africa is often told as a simple one. On the one side are the continent's countless artisanal fishermen and women who have plied the seas for hundreds of years in their dug-out canoes and pirogues. Today, they suffer because of the other side. Greedy fishing fleets from the European Union and Asia taking advantage of exploitative political agreements. Pirate fishermen, abusing many countries' lack of control over their territorial waters. And greedy local elites that close both eyes, as long as they can line their own pockets.To be sure, all these characters exist and the problems in Africa's fisheries are real. But, as almost always, the reality is more complex than this simple tale of good and bad. Fishing is more than a simple economic activity. It is a complex social, commercial and political arena where competing interests clash. Here, the obvious solution not always turns out to be the right one.

BAFLF demand permanent employment for irregular workers in BADC as well as improved retirement benefit, paid weekly holidays and maternity leave.
August 18, 2014 – the Bangladesh Agricultural Farm Labour Federation (BAFLF) conducted a Press Conference at the National Press Club in Dhaka to demand regular employment for irregular workers employed in the Bangladesh Agricultural Development Corporation (BADC) farm as per Agricultural Farm Workers' Appointment and Control Policy (1990) and re-employment of illegally terminated 1,604 farm workers. In addition of to improve retirement benefits equivalent to the wage of 60 months instead of 30 months and two days paid holiday per week, BAFLF also demands that paid maternity leave be doubled from 3 months to 6 months, giving farm workers the same maternity rights as farm management and other government staff.

Two parallel absurd realities fast unfold in Manipur. The efficacy of several commissioned mega dams Khuga dam, the Khoupum dam and the Singda dam and even the 105 MW Loktak project is increasing exposed, as evident by wide reporting on their non functioning of their vital components, of regular breach of canals and dams lying idle and defunct since decommissioning. Small scale farmers, fishing communities in and around Loktak wetlands will wilfully testify the unfulfilled promises and the underperformance of the 105 MW Loktak HEP project in Manipur
In another reality, notwithstanding the exposition of efficacy and tacit underperformance of commissioned mega dams, there's concerted and aggressive move of the Government of Manipur to construct series of mega dams all across the Rivers of Manipur under the Manipur Hydroelectric Power Policy, 2012, even initiating series of global tenders inviting multinational corporations and full preparations of Memorandum of Understandings with these giant profit mongering corporations.Last Updated on Wednesday, 20 August 2014 11:29

Appeal of Final Grades for Individual Courses
A student may appeal a final grade in a course under specific conditions.
- The student may submit an appeal based on the claim that the professor of the course failed to adhere to the stated grading policy of the course as the policy appears in the course syllabus.
- The student may submit an appeal based on a claim that the professor of the course was discriminatory in failing to apply documented criteria for grading that appears in the course syllabus when determining the student's final grade.
Any student wishing to appeal a final grade should first discuss the grade with his or her professor. If the student is unable to resolve the grievance over a final course grade through consultation with the professor, a written request for review of the course grade should be submitted to the chair of the department or the director of the program in which the course was taught.
Written requests for review of a final course grade by a department chair or program director must be submitted no later than the end of the fifth week of the next regular academic semester.
If the grievance over a final course grade cannot be resolved through the meeting with the department chair or program director, the student may submit a final appeal in writing to the Academic Dean.
The written request to the Academic Dean must be submitted within two weeks of the final meeting with the department chair or program director, or by mid-semester.
The decision on the appeal of a final course grade by the Academic Dean is final and cannot be appealed.

Landscape Live
Landscapes Live! A Children's Journey Through Runnymede
In October 2012 we celebrated our successful application to the Heritage Lottery Fund, an event which meant that we finally had sufficient funds to start the second stage of the Trust's own journey through our Landscapes Live Project.
Since that pivotal moment we have been busy planning the project in detail and preparing for working with local children and families at Runnymede over the coming summer. This short journey has, however, really endorsed the importance of a children focussed project and we are delighted to report that we have been joined by new partners who bring not just enthusiasm for our ideas, but very welcome skills and resources as well.
The National Trust, Runnymede Borough Council and the nearby Egham Museum have become valued partners, donating staff time, ideas, contacts, local knowledge, historic resources, meeting rooms and steaming cups of coffee. All are involved in planning for the 800th anniversary of Magna Carta, and the 50th anniversary of the JFK Memorial both in 2015 but, despite the pressures of such additional work, have been unstinting in their enthusiasm for our project. We have also received an enthusiastic response from the Kennedy Memorial Trust and, of course, we would be going nowhere without the skills of the Gatton Trust's Education team who will be working with local schools and community groups in developing the Children's Journey around this historic landscape.
These organisations are supporting us because they understand and share our aims and aspirations. They, too, understand the importance – for both physical and mental health - of keeping communities, families and individuals in touch with the natural environment, with their local landscapes, and with their local heritage. As Peter Winfield (Parks and Amenities Manager at Runnymede Borough Council) commented, "[we are] always happy to help with projects like this, that encourage greater use of the outdoors".

Access for All, Capability Brown 1716 – 2016: Celebrating 300 years
In 2012 Liz Lake, a trustee of the Landscape Design Trust, was part of the initiative to encourage organisations to participate in the celebration of the tercentenary of Capability Brown's birth in 2016. In June over 150 delegates visited the Brown landscape at Ampthill Park in Bedfordshire. The purpose of the day was to look at the practical issues that might face owners opening their Brown landscapes for varying periods of time.
The Trust's contribution to the day was to prepare an advice sheet on Access for All. Since 1996 it has been unlawful to treat disabled people less favourably than other people for a reason related to their disability. Previously called DDA, compliance is now required with the Equalities Act 2010. We defined the aims as the creation of a range of routes to suit different user groups providing dignified access for all without compromising a landscape's special interest. Advice was provided on parking, types of visitor routes, what people value, identifying barriers and creating accessible routes for all kinds of disabilities.
The advice sheet was very well received by both owners with existing arrangements in place and those with no experience seeking to open for a short period of time.
Download the advice sheet here.
A Children's Journey
The 'Big Idea':
Landscape and green space makes an enormous contribution to social and physical health yet this resource is under used and under-funded. Our project will use the historic landscape of Runnymede, to provide a teaching resource to connect children to landscape and the history of democracy. This is a prototype for what we hope will become a major new Landscape Design Trust initiative throughout the country.
Welcome to Landscape Design Trust
We promote quality of landscape through education and campaigning. We aim to influence and educate those who plan, design, build, maintain, manage and use the outdoor environment.
We are an independent organisation, registered as a charity. We do not have members or shareholders; we operate through a team of staff and volunteers.

by Harris Hyman,
The problem usually starts on a nice warm sunny day when your
client looks out through the window onto the garden that she
carefully planted two or three years ago, now coming into full
bloom. As she stands there with a cup of coffee, the thought
comes, "Wouldn't it be nice to just step out through a glass
door directly into the garden? A large glass area would invite
the garden into the house. Of course, I can still go out the
back door and walk around the house, but that would be so much
Next you get the call for an estimate to put in a slider or a
faux French door. Not too bad a job, but you do have to knock a
6- or 8-foot hole in an exterior wall. And like most exterior
walls, it's probably a structural, weight-bearing wall.
A hole like that can be a real headache. For a small window,
you can select a header out of experience, but a hole large
enough for a double door can bring the house down. Almost worse
than that is a situation where the building load bows the
header to jam the functioning of the door, and you have to
return to the job time after time to rebuild and patch.
There are three fundamental problems associated with placing a
wide doorway in a wall: cutting the hole so that the building
doesn't fall, building a workable frame for the new door, and
installing and finishing the new door. Here we'll go into the
first two problems and leave the finishing to your
The frame around the door consists of two posts and a header.
The posts are generally pretty easy. A 2x6 of Doug fir will
carry a compressive load of about 5,000 pounds. Typically,
there are two jack studs on each side, which means that the
doorway can support 20,000 pounds. No worries here.
The header is the problem. When the header is loaded, it sags.
If the door frame is attached to the header, it will sag along
with the header, jamming the door.
One direct
solution is to install the header, then remove all support, and
let it sag. The header will deflect into its final position and
won't go any farther. You attach the door frame assembly to the
deflected header, which is reasonably stable, and it too
remains stable. This arrangement is feasible when the doorway
is not in the support path of the live load. If it is live-load
bearing, however, there may be problems when the roof is loaded
with snow or heavy furniture is placed above the doorway in the
bedroom upstairs.
Call an engineer? A second
option, the engineered solution, requires an analysis of the
structural layout of the house. How are loads transmitted to
the ground? Does support for the roof flow through the section
of wall to be removed? Do the second-floor joists run parallel
with or perpendicular to the wall with the door opening?
In a large public building, it's appropriate to run this type
of analysis, but with a residence, a shortcut is often
The shortcut suggests a look at the worst possible situation
and designing a header to match. Most builders overdo headers
anyhow, so these will feel okay to most of you.
We'll look at one-story, two-story, and three-story houses. A
single-story house with a standard pitched roof has two eaves
sides and two gable sides. The weight of the roof usually bears
on the eaves side, particularly when trusses are used, and the
loads here are more severe than the loads on the gable
Consider a fairly wide house, say 40 feet (see illustration
below). In most of the country, snow loads are less than 40
psf, roof structure with trusses and insulation is about 20
psf, and the attic is loaded to 20 psf. Each eave supports half
of the roof load: 20 feet of roof, for a total of 1,600 pounds
per lineal foot on the header. The two-story house analysis
assumes the worst case for the second story: that the floor
joists run perpendicular to the wall and are 20 feet long. With
a code live load of 40 psf, a structure load of 15 psf, and 100
pounds per lineal foot added in for exterior wall (studs,
sheathing, and so forth), the header load in a two-story house
becomes 2,250 plf. The loading from a third floor would bring
the load on the header to 2,900 plf.
These sketches illustrate the loads on a
typical eaves-side header in a 40-foot-wide house. As long as
the loads on your header are equal to or less than these, you
can use the chart on the next page to size the
The evaluation of a suitable header beam must consider both
strength and deflection. Strength is obvious: The beam must
have enough meat to accept the stresses on the material. Out of
experience, I arbitrarily limit the allowable sag to 3/32 inch.
A greater deflection leads to operating trouble later on, while
any less requires an excessively heavy beam.
I typically use one of two header materials: steel or V24
glulams. If you use engineered lumber (LVL or Parallam), it has
about the same properties as glulams for beams this size.
My suggestion for steel beams in residential construction is
rectangular steel tubes with a 1/4-inch wall thickness, rather
than angles or W-sections. Tubes are not too heavy to handle,
and it's easy to attach 1-by blocking with Hilti or Ramset
powder-actuated fasteners. Plus, the tubes are not too deep to
cause a headroom problem: Their 3-inch or 4-inch widths are
easy to integrate into frame construction. See the table below
for an idea of the size header that you'll need, depending on
the size of the house and the width of the opening.
3 1/8 x 9
3 1/8 x 12
5 1/8 x 12
5 1/8 x 15
TS5 x 3 x .25
TS6 x 3 x .25
TS8 x 3 x .25
TS7 x 3 x .25
TS10 x 4 x .25
L6 x 3.5 x 3/8
L6 x 4 x 5/8
L8 x 4 x 3/4
L7 x 4 x 3/8
L7 x 4 x 3/4
L8 x 4 x1
L7 x 4 x 1/2
Nothing fits
You may want to keep the original window header in place,
because ripping it out could cause more disturbance to the
exterior finishes than necessary. In that case you could use a
steel angle under the header, extended to the width of the
doorway, as shown in the illustration below. It'll still take
some chopping to fit in the angle, and since angles are
extremely inefficient as structural beams, you'll need a fairly
hefty angle (see the table above). Still, in some cases it
might solve your problem more easily than a tube or a
In some cases it may be faster to
retrofit a wider header while leaving the existing header in
Your problem is not completely solved with the information in
the tables; you still have to build the project. When you open
the wall to insert the post and lintel, something has to hold
up the building. This is worth major consideration, as it's
where a construction failure is most likely to occur.
It's tricky: You have to leave enough clear space to insert
the header while at the same time holding up everything that
the header you are inserting is supposed to hold up. (If that's
confusing to read, think about the actual problem.)
I've seen three methods of holding the wall in place while
constructing the opening. The first is prayer: Just get out the
Sawzall and hope everything will be okay. Often it is. Still,
an engineer or building inspector who sees you do this will
almost certainly invoke the name of a deity. I have. I even
pray sometimes, but not for salvation from foolishness.
Somewhat improved method. A slightly better scheme, which I've
seen used by various contractors, is to drill a row of 1
1/4-inch holes about 12 inches on-center above the doorway
opening, then clamp a pair of timbers to the wall with long
1-inch-diameter bolts. This method is largely intuitive in
selection of timbers, placement of holes, and tightening of
bolts. The problem with this scheme is that it's difficult to
be sure whether you're properly picking up the loads; I like to
do things that can be analyzed as positively safe.
Provide good support before you open up
an exterior bearing wall.
The safest way to hold up the wall is to construct a temporary
2x6 stud wall that extends up to the ceiling, set back from the
exterior wall a foot or two to allow you room to work. Use
studs 16 inches on-center and diagonally brace the wall corner
to corner (see illustration above). You can also provide
support from the outside. Each project is different, with its
individual problems. Just make sure you study the loads and
distribute them to the ground.
The result of the work, inserting a glazed doorway, is grand.
It lightens and brightens a room and changes the feeling of a
house. From the client's viewpoint, there's a lot of real
improvement for the money. As I write this, I look at the
narrow, windowless back door out of my kitchen to the garden
I'm building and think...

This has been a bugaboo of mine for quite a while now: We are entering into an era of increased personal empowerment unseen since the invention of the printing press. I don't HAVE to watch the evening news to know what's going on, I have my podcasts and RSS feeds. I don't HAVE to limit myself to what's on the shelves in the local Sears store, I have millions of e-commerce website to chose from. I don't HAVE rely on a union shop steward to empower myself, I have the soapbox of a blog and the Rolodex of my LinkedIn contacts to help advance my career.
And Michael Barone agrees: Big government and empowering technology do NOT mix.
"Large" technology requires the standardization of masses of people, centralized command-and-control, conformity to social norms. Massive work forces and massive armies cannot operate optimally otherwise.
"Small" technology enables individuals to make personal choices, fashion their world to their own dimensions, deploy their own talents and pursue their interests in ways of their own choosing. Standardization yields to customization.
President Obama doesn't seem to get this. He sees history as a story of progress from minimal government to ever-larger government. He's only sorry that he hasn't taken us farther on that track.
But history doesn't proceed in a straight line; it moves around. "Large" technology made big government seem necessary in 1914. "Small" technology requires something different, something more adaptive today.
The deer now have guns. Obama and the big-government Democrats don't get that, and now they face extinction.

Berkeley, Calif. • Missing its best post player and facing a defense coach Lindsay Gottlieb admittedly wasn't prepared for, California needed a lift.
The seventh-ranked Golden Bears found it in a four-guard lineup and a full-court press defense that created all sorts of havoc for Utah.
Storylines Bears get defensiveCal beats Utah for the seventh straight time, 71-54.
» The Bears' full-court press in the second half leads to a 17-4 run.

|Post a Comment
Reshanda Gray scored 19 points and sparked a big run in the second half before leaving with a left hamstring injury, Layshia Clarendon added 23 and California beat Utah 71-54 on Sunday.
"That's what we're about, let's find a way and get it done," Gottlieb said. "That was obviously the shift in the game when we upped the pressure, got a bunch of steals and made plays the way we like to."
Afure Jemerigbe scored 10 points while guard Eliza Pierre had five points, four assists and eight rebounds while playing the post position at the top of Cal's smothering press in the second half.
That helped the Bears to their seventh consecutive win over the Utes and assures Cal (17-2, 7-1 Pac-12) of keeping at least a share of first place in the conference.
The Bears had trouble getting anything going against Utah's triangle-and-two defense until Gray scored 11 points as part of a 17-4 run midway through the second half.
Utah committed 21 turnovers, including six in seven possessions after Cal made the defensive switch and went to the full-court press.
"That's normally a strength of our team," Utes coach Anthony Levrets said of his team's ability to avoid turnovers. "We were tired ... and when you're tired like that sometimes that can overwhelm you, and it did tonight."
Michelle Plouffe scored 19 points and Paige Crozon added 13 for Utah (10-9, 1-7).
The Utes played without second-leading scorer Taryn Wicijowski who injured her right knee while attempting a layup in the first half of Friday's loss to Stanford. She's scheduled to undergo an MRI in Salt Lake City on Monday.
"I couldn't be prouder of our team," Leverts said. "But it was a disappointing couple of stretches that cost us the game."

A twist of fate and a broken elevator brought Rita Young and Cesar Larios together.
Young, 79, had just made her way to an elevator at Grand Court Tampa, a senior living facility on Bayshore Boulevard, one night about three weeks ago. Larios, an employee with Tampa-based College Hunks Hauling Junk working a job at Rita's building, arrived at the same elevator at the same time.
Shortly after the doors shut, the elevator broke down.
"The young man saw I was upset," Young said, admitting she was starting to have a panic attack. "He put his arm around me and said, 'now don't get upset.' He said, 'I'm here and I'm going to take care of you.'"
A picture taken after the doors opened that went viral Wednesday captures the simple, yet amazing, act of kindness that happened next.
Larios, 23, offered his back so an elderly stranger could get off her feet, effectively turning himself into a human chair.
"He said, 'I'll get down on all fours,' and he said, 'you can sit on my back,'" Young said.
"I didn't think twice. She was kind of hesitant about it," Larios added.
Young, who has trouble walking and breathing, realized she had no choice but to accept the offer.
"She kind of started putting her weight on my back little by little and then after a few seconds she was just, like, chilling on my back," Larios told Fox 13.
The two sat in the same position as they waited for firefighters for 30 minutes. The picture shows the smile on Young's face, but her appreciation goes much deeper.
"His mom, she should be very proud to have raised a son that would do something like that because to an old lady, it's so hard to adjust to being older," she said. "I do consider him my special angel."
Young said she never got the chance to properly thank her hero, something she hopes to eventually do.
"I would one day like to shake his hand and tell him thank you very much for keeping me calm," she said.

Duke Divinity School members are invited to celebrate Easter in Cambridge England with a full program of concerts and services during Holy Week, as part of the Duke-Cambridge Collaboration.
Highlights of the week include:
Rumours of Passion (Weds April 4)
A sequence of poetry, readings and music based on the strange and stirring Servant Songs of Isaiah, in the intimate setting of Clare College Chapel. The evening will include four poems by distinguished Irish poet Micheal O'Siadhail, commissioned for the occasion and read by the poet.
One of the poems, entitled "O you whose love laid out our skies," has been set to music by DITA's Director Jeremy Begbie [1] and will receive its first performance by the Cambridge-Duke Voices, a collaborative choir formed especially for the event.
Sung Eucharist on Maundy Thursday
Eucharist will be celebrated in King's College Chapel with the world-renowned King's College Choir. The preacher will be Duke Divinity School's Dean Richard Hays.
"Illuminating Messiaen" Duke Photography Exhibition
The winning entries of Duke Divinity School's photography contest will be displayed in an all-day exhibition open to the general public on Maundy Thursday in the Corpus Playroom theatre.
In the evening, distinguished pianist, composer, and broadcaster David Owen Norris will present an introduction to Olivier Messiaen's Visions de l'Amen, which is to be performed in the Chapel immediately afterwards. David's talk will draw on the photographs, which were inspired by the music and will be displayed during the concert itself.
View the winning photographs [2]
Messiaen, Visions de l'Amen
Written in the midst of the Second World War in occupied France, Messiaen's spectacular Visions de l'Amen for two pianos is one of his most well-known and accessible pieces, encompassing a huge range of emotion and pianistic virtuosity. Messiaen paints a vast panorama in sound, depicting the passage from the world's creation to its re-creation, including at its center a profound meditation on Jesus' agony in Gethsemane.
The work will be performed on two pianos by DITA's Director Jeremy Begbie and London-based concert pianist Cordelia Williams.
Elgar, The Apostles (Sat 7 April)
"Upon me it produced an extraordinary effect" wrote A.C. Benson to Elgar after The Apostles was first performed in King's College Chapel in 1906 "…the beauty of certain movements is incredible – out of the reach of art. I can't conceive the process by which you dreamed of such sounds."
Such is the deeply moving experience in store for the audience that comes to King's Chapel this Holy Saturday to hear in the words and music of this great oratorio the story of Christ's apostles, from their calling, through to the events at Golgotha and the Sepulchre, to the Resurrection.
The Philharmonia Chorus will be joined for the performance by guest singers from Duke University, and the concert is being recorded by BBC Radio 3.
The Full Program
[3]For full information on these and other concerts and services to be held during the week, download the Easter at King's program [3].
The Duke-Cambridge Consultation
Running alongside the public events of the week will be private Consultation meetings in preparation for Duke's commissioning of a new St Luke Passion from Scottish composer James MacMillan. Delegates who met in September 2011 will continue conversations with the composer, who will be joining the group for three days during the week in Cambridge.
They will also be joined by Irish poet Micheal O'Siadhail, whose has recently been commissioned by the Duke-Cambridge Consultation Group to write poetry based on the Servant Songs of Isaiah. The poems will receive their premier during the Rumours of Passion event at Clare Chapel on Wednesday 4 April.

Goal Choice
José EnriqueLiverpool Position: Defender
Fan Choice
J. ShelveyLiverpool Position: Midfielder
Team Ratings
B. Jones
Might have perhaps done better with Cabaye's goal but otherwise rarely tested.
D. Agger
Kept Cisse quiet for the entire game and made several trademark forways forward.
José Enrique
Will struggle to play himself into contention with performances like this, despite his fine ball for Suarez's goal. Lost the ball regularly and struggled to defend against the excellent Ben Arfa.
M. Škrtel
Continued his brilliant partnership with Daniel Agger at the heart of defence. Imperious.
A. Wisdom
Not always comfortable with the ball at his feet but a solid presence aerially.
S. Gerrard
Tried to provide urgency alongside Suarez and sent in some dangerous crosses.
N. Şahin
Still seems to float in and out of games. Shows some moments of class but can often be bypassed by his team-mates and the opposition.
Showed some great touches but still struggles to consistently influence matches.
R. Sterling
Added pace to the Reds' attack but doesn't always make the right decisions.
J. Allen
Lost the ball more times than he perhaps in his entire Liverpool career. Looked off the pace after featuring in midweek.
L. Suárez
Continued his scoring run with a brilliantly taken effort. Liverpool's most prominent attacking player as per usual but could do with some real help.
Newcastle United
T. Krul
Made some decent stops in both halves to keep Newcastle in the game.
S. Taylor
Did well in the face of an onslaught but shrugged off too easily by Suarez in the lead up to the Uruguayan's goal.
D. Santon
Shackled Suso well but had more trouble in keeping Sterling quiet later on.
F. Coloccini
Made some crucial interceptions with Suarez running at him all day. A calm figure at the back until his needless rash challenge on the Reds No.7 left the Magpies with 10 men.
H. Ben Arfa
Newcastle's biggest outlet on the break. His clever footwork bamboozled Jose Enrique and allowed Cabaye to put the Magpies ahead.
V. Anita
Started at right-back but shifted to midfield when Perch was withdrawn. Looked solid in both roles without ever being spectacular.
J. Gutiérrez
Barely touched the ball with Newcastle on the back foot but was as industrious as ever.
Y. Cabaye
Had little influence on the game in terms of possession but took his goal brilliantly.
P. Cissé
Had to feed on scraps and was marked out of the game by Skrtel and Agger. Still managed some excellent touches.
D. Ba
Forced to feed on scraps for the first half and subbed early in the second, presumably with injury.

Fewer Crimes in Rock Island
February 04, 2014
Crime continued to fall in Rock Island last year. That was the report Monday night to the city council by Police Chief, Jeff VenHuizen.
Each year, crimes in the city are tracked in 8 categories - murder, criminal sexual assault, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, theft, motor vehicle theft, and arson. And there were 1,224 in all last year - a drop of 137, or 10 per cent, from the previous year. Serious crime dropped 3 per cent, including murder, sexual assault, and aggravated assault.
VenHuizen says one reason for the improvement is Rock Island officers are more "engaged in the community."
"There are social programs the police department is involved in with the youth. We're also involved with programs with our block clubs. I think that has a definite impact on crime."
He also thinks demographics are playing a role - Americans are getting older.
"The trend across the US right now is the youth population is declining. And we know that youth are the most susceptible to being victims of violent crime and also being offenders."
Some credit should also go to his department's "crime supression unit" and the patrol unit that focuses on the downtown district. Chief VenHuizen says the overall number of crimes has been dropping for the past 20 years - in Rock Island and across the country.

Members of the Tracy Firefighters Local 3355 political action committee handed out fliers addressing a Sept. 11 vote by the Mountain House Community Services District Board of Directors to terminate the existing fire service contract by 2015.
According to Joel Fell, treasurer of Local 3355's political action committee, the flier was meant to give residents "all of the facts" regarding the contract termination.
"Our intent of the flier was to bring attention to the issue," Fell said during a telephone interview on Monday, Oct. 21. "We didn't want to scare anybody. Our goal was simply to make everybody aware of the potential contractual issues that would happen. We wanted to remain completely transparent about the issue."
The flier spoke the present quick response by the fire department, the importance of having a full-time local paramedic engine and the firefighters' commitment to serving the Mountain House community.
"We are your neighbors," the flier stated. "We believe in this community and want to continue serving you. If you believe, like us, that public safety is too important to be left to chance, please call the Mountain House CSD today and let them know."
Fell said it is the union's belief that the board did not have all the facts when it voted to end the contract.
Mountain House General Manager Janice McClintock told the board of directors on Sept. 11 that the only way to review the contract between the community services district and the fire authority was to give two years' notice of termination plans.
She told the board she found "irregularities" in the fire contract following an audit by the Stockton-based auditing firm of Croce & Co.
McClintock also told directors on the night of the vote that Mountain House was paying too much for its fire service and they should renegotiate the contract.
She said Mountain House was paying 15.8 percent of the total service bill for the Tracy Fire Department, while receiving less than 6 percent of the calls for service.
Fell said firefighters understood that the board was trying to save money and commended the directors on their fiscal diligence, but he said terminating the fire contact would cost the district more money, not less.
He said the contract states that upon termination, the district must pay the fire authority about $6 million to buy back the fire station and equipment.
"We think the vote might have been different if (the board was) provided all the facts," he said. "We feel there are other ways to renegotiate the contract other than terminate it."
Board President Celeste Farron said she believed it might be the firefighters who were misinformed. Farron said the firefighters "provide a great service" but the "contract is old."
"My feeling is we looked at the contract; it's old and stale; it's from 2003," she said. "It needs to be up-to-date so it's fair and just to all. I know we don't want to get rid of public safety. We're just looking to renegotiate the contract."
Tracy Rural Fire Authority has provided fire service to the community of Mountain House since 2002, according to Tracy Fire Department Chief Al Nero.
Negotiating teams from the community services district and the fire authority plan to meet next week to discuss ways to continue the contract, Nero said.
"Our expectations are that all parties will negotiate in good faith," he said. "I'm anxious to get it going and I'm anxious to get it done."

Hello! My name is Lady Mariota of Kildare. I joined the SCA in 1996 while attending the University of Prince Edward Island. The Cantref of Ynys y Gwaed was my home until the end of 1999 when I left for the Shire of Lyndhaven, to join my lord and get married.
Lady Mariota of Kildare was born in the county of Kildare in Ireland in the year 1461. She is Anglo-Irish, living in the Pale. There are rumours that my father was the FitzGerald, but I won't substantiate any such claims here.
I am a fairly good cook (I haven't poisoned anyone yet), I am an accomplished seamstress. It is my goal to make garb well, and then decorate the hell out of it.
I have numerous projects on the go. See the projects list below, as it will be changing often!

MONROVIA, Calif., March 12, 2014 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Parasoft today announced that the latest release of its Service Virtualization introduces enhanced support for managing complex database and mainframe environments.
Photo - http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20140312/MN81623
Large-scale systems have been traditionally difficult to manage in a test lab. Staged instances, when available, are difficult and time consuming to configure. Moreover, the cost to stage a large system like a mainframe or SAP is significant. Parasoft's Service Virtualization solution creates a simulated test environment by emulating the transactions associated with these large systems. By simulating and configuring at the message layer, organizations are able to test earlier, faster and more completely.
"Now that Service Virtualization as a technology has begun to hit its stride, organizations are looking to expand Service Virtualization deployments within increasingly complex environments," explained Wayne Ariola, Parasoft Chief Strategy Officer. "Our Service Virtualization solution has already been recognized as the industry leader in 'Platform and Protocol Support,' making it the optimal choice for complex environments like mainframes, SAP, ESBs and high-throughput message brokers. This release will assist customers to more rapidly construct and manage simulated assets—delivering more complete access to complex environments."
Key capabilities introduced in the new release include:
- Simplified Creation of SQL-Based Virtual Assets: A redesigned interface simplifies the creation of SQL-based virtual assets—reducing the time and effort involved in defining complex SQL responses. This is especially critical for organizations leveraging complex database or mainframe transactions.
- Optimized Performance: The virtual asset creation process has been significantly optimized to make it faster and easier for organizations working with large and complex message sets.
- Redesigned Test Lab Management Interface: The redesigned interface further enhances the speed and ease with which users can understand complex test environments and provision the exact test environment needed to complete a specific task
- Extended Connectivity and Extensibility: As part of Parasoft's commitment to being the industry's open, integrated Service Virtualization solution, we continued to expand our API to enable more seamless integration into your SDLC—for example, your organization's preferred tools for DevOps, Continuous Integration, ALM, etc.

We had three quick questions for Mike Kail, and he had three quick answers. Mike is SVP of Infrastructure at Yahoo!, and formerly VP of IT Operations at Netflix. He'll be speaking at @DevOpsSummit about his experiences in integrating DevOps on a big scale in big-scale projects. Here's what we asked and what he said: DevOps Journal: You mention "eventual consistency" as a goal. Is there a timeframe? Mike Kail: It is really a strategy for successful transformation instead of a strict timeline DevOps Journal: Who has the steepest learning curve, "dev" "ops"? Mike: It is not about sides of the house, it is about one's ability to shift and evolve. Hire smart people who like getting uncomfortable and embrace rapid change DevOps Journal: How important is buy-in from top management? Mike: Very important. Thankfully I have, and provide, that.

Having just joined a large technology company with 20 years of history, it would be suicidal to believe that I can immediately move the entire organization to the DevOps mindset and model. For those not familiar with the term, "Eventual Consistency" is a model used in distributed computing to ensure high availability. In this context, it's a model for replicating best practices and automation across IT teams and business units. The logical place to start with automation is the on-boarding of a new employee. That process should be as seamless and streamlined as possible, with a pristine source of truth. The goal is to populate a list of attributes and replicate them out to the various systems, and that's applicable to either a new employee or an existing one who changes roles. Core infrastructure deployment is also at the base of the DevOps stack. Automate the provisioning of compute, network, and storage, and provide continuous insight into the utilization.

The widespread success of cloud computing is driving the DevOps revolution in enterprise IT. Now as never before, development teams must communicate and collaborate in a dynamic, 24/7/365 environment. There is no time to wait for long development cycles that produce software that is obsolete at launch. DevOps may be disruptive, but it is essential. The DevOps Summit at Cloud Expo--to be held November 4-6 at the Santa Clara Convention Center in the heart of Silicon Valley--will expand the DevOps community, enable a wide sharing of knowledge, and educate delegates and technology providers alike. Recent research has shown that DevOps dramatically reduces development time, the amount of enterprise IT professionals put out fires, and support time generally. Time spent on infrastructure development is significantly increased, and DevOps practitioners report more software releases and higher quality.

Software is eating the world. Companies that were not previously in the technology space now find themselves competing with Google and Amazon on speed of innovation. As the innovation cycle accelerates, companies must embrace rapid and constant change to both applications and their infrastructure, and find a way to deliver speed and agility of development without sacrificing reliability or efficiency of operations. In her keynote DevOps Summit, Victoria Livschitz, CEO of Qubell, will discuss how IT organizations can automate just-in-time assembly of application environments – each built for a specific purpose with the right infrastructure, components, service, data and tools – and deliver this automation to developers as a self-service. Victoria's keynote will include remarks by Kira Makagon, EVP of Innovation at RingCentral, and Ratnakar Lavu, EVP of Digital Technology at Kohl's.

Despite the fact that majority of developers firmly believe that "it worked on my laptop" is a poor excuse for production failures, most don't truly understand why it is virtually impossible to make your development environment representative of production. When asked, the primary reason for the production/development difference everyone mentions is technology stack spec/configuration differences. While it's true, thanks to the black magic of Cloud (capitalization intended) with a bit of wizardry from Chef, anyone can create a pretty reliable replica of the production environment on demand. The actual main issue with reliable production mirroring is complex, but can be described in one word – data.

DevOps Journal: Cloud, Big Data, and the IoT all carry disruption within enterprise IT. The same goes with DevOps. Which of these is the major disruptor, in your opinion? Andi Mann: It may well be cloud, because it fundamentally enables all the rest. Cloud scale is why we are now considering Big Data; cloud connectivity is a key enabler of IoT; cloud agility has enabled DevOps to take hold. But in the end, the cloud is "just" a platform, while the results of DevOps speak for themselves--like an average 20+% improvement in areas like revenue, new products, time to market, quality improvement, and more . DevOps Journal: Cloud has been gaining traction for the longest time in this group, too. Andi: Yes, it is still early days for DevOps, with a minority yet to adopt DevOps, so its biggest impact is yet to be seen. This is an incredible opportunity to radically accelerate the pace of change, which in turn will upend all the other disruptions. This is why I think DevOps...

These days, implementing automatic deployment for .NET web projects is easier than ever. Drastic improvements started in Visual Studio 2010 when basic deployment strategies and tools were incorporated into VS itself. Yet, documentation was quite poor at that time, so you had to scour the Internet to find good tutorials in blogs or conference videos. Things have been constantly improving since then; now, we have even more functionality available out-of-the-box and documentation provided in a way that allows you to get started from zero understanding of the process to working deployment in less than two days. Some good places to start are this tutorial for an end-to-end guide on configuration and MSDN's overview.

Enthusiasm for the Internet of Things has reached an all-time high. In 2013 alone, venture capitalists spent more than $1 billion dollars investing in the IoT space. With "smart" appliances and devices, IoT covers wearable smart devices, cloud services to hardware companies. Nest, a Google company, detects temperatures inside homes and automatically adjusts it by tracking its user's habit. These technologies are quickly developing and with it come challenges such as bridging infrastructure gaps, abiding by privacy concerns and making the concept a reality. These challenges can't be addressed without the kinds of agile software development and infrastructure approaches pioneered by the DevOps movement.

Theo Wanne DURGA Baritone Saxophone MouthpieceThe DURGA baritone is the culmination of many years of research and testing. It produces a huge sound that takes the baritone saxophone to a new level.Due to the nature of the DURGA design and the baritone's already robust sound, the DURGA baritone mouthpiece is extremely versatile and recommended for most types of music. Theo Wanne's literature reads, "The DURGA has the most advanced design and manufacturing process of any mouthpiece in history." A bold claim. It goes on to state, "Nothing like it has existed in the alto world before." We are not so sure they aren't right. This is an amazing saxophone mouthpiece.The DURGA is both powerful fat sounding. It can both scream and play a soft ballad, with a uniquely designed baffle and deeply rounded inner side walls with TW's True Large Chamber and Power Ring.The Power Ring is a ring set at the back of the chamber that radically tapers the chamber down, giving the mouthpiece the benefits of the True Large Chamber with the power found in small chamber mouthpieces. It is machined from a single block of solid brass. Many baritone players who never liked metal mouthpieces before love this mouthpiece. With many patents behind their products, Theo WanneTM mouthpieces are among the highest quality and most innovative in the world.The DURGA has a technically advanced design and manufacturing process. The result is a powerful mouthpiece with a huge core and breadth of sound. No longer does the saxophonist need to have a thin sound in order to get huge power and projection. The DURGA is both powerful and fat sounding simultaneously.
Order today with the no-risk assurance of our Total Satisfaction and Low Price Guarantees!
Nice looking piece of bling. If you read the hype this thing is supposed to be the best thing that ever happen to the bari sax. But it simply could not live up to the hype. It did not play well or sound good to me. Low end was edgy and thin the high end difficult to produce. I struggled just to get it to play. My teacher said can you get your money back. Certainly not worth the money to me. I returned it and WWBW was very good about living up to there refund policy.

The Los Angeles Kings have named Terry Murray as the club's new head coach.
Murray signed a multi-year contract to replace Marc Crawford, who was the bench boss for the past two seasons before being relieved of his duties on June 10. Murray becomes the 22nd head coach in Kings history.
''I am very excited about this opportunity,'' Murray said in a statement. ''This will be my biggest challenge as a coach. There is a lot of work ahead and it will take a collective effort to execute the plan we have in place. I am looking forward to training camp and to getting the process under way.''
Murray's reume includes head coaching duties with the Washington Capitals, Florida Panthers and the Philadelphia Flyers, where he led that club to the 1997 Stanley Cup Finals,
''We are very pleased that Terry has accepted this challenge,'' Kings president and general manager Dean Lombardi said. ''He has a wide range of coaching experience and he understands the importance of teaching, which is critical to the building process.''
Murray spent the past four seasons as an assistant coach with the Flyers, an organization he has worked for as a head coach, assistant coach, pro scout and player. This past season he helped the Flyers record 95 points and advance to Eastern Conference Finals after earning 56 points in 2006-07.
Murray also played in 302 career NHL regular season games over eight seasons with Washington, Philadelphia (two stints), the Detroit Red Wings and the California Golden Seals/California Seals, who originally drafted Murray in the seventh-round (88th overall) of the 1970 NHL Amateur Draft.
