Madrid Travel guide
Madrid : Michelin's recommendations
At the heart of Spain, backed by the foothills of the Sierra de Guadarrama, Madrid, one of Europe's youngest capitals, is a dynamic city with a welcoming atmosphere. Its dynastic heritage, from the Habsburgs and Bourbons, has resulted in an exceptional artistic legacy, which can be best admired at the Prado, Thyssen-Bornemisza and Reina Sofía museums. Birthplace of the post "movida" movement at the end of the Franco period, this vibrant city has seen huge growth in recent decades.

Wineka column: The things we do for luck
"Do ya feel lucky, punk?"
— Clint Eastwood as Dirty Harry
SALISBURY — Every St. Patrick's Day, Angela Miller makes a corned beef brisket and cabbage for good luck. Her sister usually comes over to the house and joins her.
The secret to a good, lucky brisket, Miller has found, is to make sure you spread mustard on top for the last 15 minutes.
"I can't think of a time when I didn't do it," says Miller, who credits a Scotch-Irish ancestry — her maternal grandmother was a McClamrock — for giving her this family tradition.
"I like corned beef anyway," she adds. "It's a good excuse to eat all those fat grams."
No other time of year seems as right as this one to talk about good luck and the things we do to secure it. First of all, it's St. Patrick's Day, and the Irish have all kinds of superstitions to recognize omens of good luck, or bad.
You know about wearing green, finding four-leaf clovers and shamrocks, tacking up horseshoes and catching leprechauns with their lucky charms.
But those things only scratch the surface in Irish folklore. Just take itching by itself.
If your left hand itches, you'll be receiving money. If your right hand needs a scratching, you'll meet a new friend. If your nose itches, someone is gossiping about you, or you're going to be receiving some news.
The Irish believe it's bad luck to ask a man who is going fishing where he is going. And they have a thing about magpies — those noisy, black-and-white birds that like to chatter a lot.
It's generally better to see magpies in groups — not one by itself, which means sorrow might be headed your way. Two magpies translate to joy; three, a wedding; four, someone's going to have a boy; five, silver; and six, gold.
Besides St. Patrick's Day, people are pulling out all their lucky stops during the college basketball season. You've heard this talk about madness, brackets, seeding and being on the bubble.
Basketball fans have lucky underwear, sweatpants, socks, shoes, shirts, chairs, hats and jock straps. They might have to eat only certain foods for a pregame meal or sit a particular way to even watch the games.
Plenty of these shenanigans will be going on during today's conference basketball championships, so beware.
I heard recently sailors believe a naked woman on board a boat calms the seas. But I would guess other parts of the boat and men are not calm when this happens.
You probably have heard other more traditional signs of good luck: finding and picking up a penny on the ground, a rabbit's foot, throwing salt over your left shoulder to cancel out bad luck, carrying an acorn in your pocket, hearing a cricket, having a lady bug stick to you, crossing your fingers, knocking on wood and saying "Bless you" after someone sneezes.
But did you know it's lucky if you sneeze three times before breakfast? This is a good thing to remember during the cold and flu season.
Like Dumbo the elephant and the lucky feather he held to fly, a lot of folks have more personal good-luck charms.
Miller, our corned-beef brisket lady, also carries a small, circular hambone in her change purse. It's supposed to bring her more money. As a teenager, she noticed a hambone in her mother's purse, so she took up the practice.
"She did it all those years — I guess it was good enough for me," Miller says.
Other people might have lucky coins, polished stones and stuffed animals from childhood. Folks out there think particular pets or being around certain family members bring them luck, too.
A whole different fraternity prefers taking luck out of the equation. They believe more in prayer, faith, positive thinking and hard work.
John Milton said, "Luck is the residue of design."
Thomas Jefferson offered: "I'm a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it."
When he was about 7 years old, Franklin Mendoza's grandfather gave him a $2 bill, the one with Jefferson's picture on it.
"My grandpa told me that you didn't see many of them around and that if I kept it, I would have good luck," Mendoza recalls.
The young Mendoza boy took the words to heart. To make sure he would always have it with him, he placed the two-dollar bill inside a plastic bill protector and taped it to the inside tongue of one of his shoes.
Mendoza never considered himself superstitious, but he seemed to have good luck when he wore the money-lined shoe.
"I would always find cool things while going on walks," he says, "or meet awesome people. But when I didn't wear the shoes I would always misplace things or something bad would happen, or I would just have a completely boring day."
Mendoza isn't saying the $2 bill had anything to do with it, "but at the time and being young, I believed it brought me good luck."
Mendoza doesn't remember what happened to his original $2 bill.
But when he has come across others since then, he tries to hold onto the bill as long as possible, or pass it on to someone else.
Before giving it up, he tells his story first.
About a month ago, Mendoza gave a $2 bill to a guy he has known for a couple of years. The man had been going through some tough times, being unemployed for more than a year.
Since Mendoza gave him the $2 bill and told his friend what a similar bill had meant to him as a child, the man's luck has been changing.
He received a call back about a job last week.
"Call it luck, or not," Mendoza says. "It's all in the eyes of the beholder. ... I'm always on the lookout for another $2 bill and someone in need."
Don't even think about it, Duke and Carolina basketball fans.

Congrats on the bear Capt.
I just pulled my tag here for Wisconsin "C" zone for this next fall. It took me 4 years of applying to get the kill tag. In our northern areas it can take 10 years of applying to get a tag.
I see bears every year while bow hunting whitetails. I hope I do this next year! I'll be baiting them though, dogs aren't allowed in the "C" zone. They do run dogs in the northern areas.

Rutherienne, third-place finisher in the Gamely Stakes last year, will be shipped west from New York to California Tuesday for another shot at the $250,000-added race at Hollywood Park on Saturday.
Trainer Christophe Clement announced the decision from Belmont Park Sunday after nominating both Rutherienne and Carribean Sunset to the Grade I test for fillies and mares at 1 1/8 miles on turf.
Rutherienne raced in third place as the third choice all the way last year, finishing behind winner Precious Kitten and Diamond Diva to give Clement his third show finisher with Gamely shippers. He also finished third with Voodoo Dancer in 2002 and Vacare in 2007.
Rutherienne, a 5-year-old mare owned and bred by Virginia Kraft Payson, has won nine of 18 starts and earned $961,555. She shipped to California in 2007 to win the Grade I Del Mar Oaks.
By Pulpit out of the Rahy mare Ruthian, Rutherienne finished second to champion Forever Together in her 2009 bow in the Jenny Wiley Stakes at Keeneland on April 11. She breezed four furlongs at Belmont Thursday in 49.80 seconds.
Diamond Diva is also expected to return in her second start of the year for trainer Jim Cassidy. Trainer Bobby Frankel, who won the Gamely for a record eighth time with Precious Kitten, is expected to try for number nine with two entrants, Visit and Toque de Queda. Other probable starters include Magical Fantasy, Black Mamba, Tuscan Evening, Foxysox and Bel Air Sizzle.
Magical Fantasy, winner of the Grade II Santa Barbara Handicap by a nose over Black Mamba in her last start, worked six furlongs in 1:13.60 on turf Sunday under jockey Alex Solis. "She went nice, evenly all the way," said trainer Paddy Gallagher. "It's a tough race, but she's doing good."
Modification, another nominee considered possible, worked four furlongs in :48.80 on Cushion Track for trainer Doug O'Neill.
Trainer Howie Zucker hopes Well Monied proves well named when she makes her probable stakes bow in the $150,000 Honeymoon Handicap here next Sunday. The Grade II test is for 3-year-old fillies at 1 1/8 miles on turf and serves as a major prep for the $700,000 American Oaks on July 5.
"She will have one more work here this week before I decide," said Zucker Sunday from his Santa Anita base. Well Monied comes off a pair of impressive come-from-behind victories around two turns on turf.
"I thought her last race was spectacular," said Zucker of a six-wide rally from 11th under Joel Rosario to win an allowance race at one mile by 1 ¾ lengths here May 2. "She had a lot of trouble. When he (Rosario) wheeled her out, I doubt that he thought he could win. Before you could blink, she was in front and galloping out."
Zucker thinks the gray/roan filly owned by C.T. Grether, Inc., could be something special. "She's by Maria's Mon, the sire of Wait a While (2006 American Oaks and Eclipse Award winner)," said Zucker. "We've waited a while for something like her."
Well Monied is expected to tangle with Senorita Stakes winner Mrs Kipling (David Flores), Golden Poppy Stakes winner Maid For Music (Mike Smith) and Providencia Stakes winner Acting Lady (Rafael Bejarano) in the Honeymoon.
Mrs Kipling, owned by celebrity chef Bobby Flay, worked seven furlongs on turf in a bullet 1:28 under exercise rider Derek Oldham Sunday for trainer Neil Drysdale.
Other Honeymoon nominees under consideration include Lexlenos, Candilejas, Chalula One, Dash Dot Dash, Daylumney, Century Park and Pride Dancer.
Trainer John Sadler shoots for a Grade I stakes double at Hollywood Park this week with Whatsthescript in the Shoemaker Mile Monday and Black Mamba in the Gamely Saturday. Both turf stakes are $250,000-added.
The pair originated from halfway around the globe — Whatsthescript from Ireland and Black Mamba from New Zealand — but their come-from-behind styles are similar.
Whatsthescript drew post two in a field of eight in the Shoemaker and will be ridden for the first time by Joel Rosario in his first start since November.
"He runs well fresh," said Sadler of the 5-year-old horse. "He won the American off a layoff last year."
Whatsthescript returned from a six-month layoff to win the Grade II American Handicap here last year as a 29-to-1 longshot and went on to capture the Grade II Del Mar Mile and finish third in the Breeders' Cup Mile before finishing sixth as the favorite in the Citation Handicap here in November.
"He just needed a break after the Citation," said Sadler. "He went to his owners, Tommy Town Thoroughbreds in Santa Ynez, for 60 to 90 days, before coming back here. Our plan is for him to be good in the second half of the year."
Black Mamba, a 6-year-old mare, returned from a four-month layoff to finish second by a nose to Magical Fantasy in the Santa Barbara Handicap at Santa Anita in April.
Black Mamba finished second by a nose in the 2008 Santa Barbara as well and returned with back-to-back stakes victories here and at Del Mar, a pattern Sadler hopes she duplicates this year.
"The Hollywood turf plays a little better for a closer," said Sadler, hoping her stretch kick will be more effective here. She is scheduled to work Monday.
FINISH LINES — Trainer John Shirreffs said both Zenyatta and Life Is Sweet, one-two finishers in the $150,000 Milady Handicap Saturday, returned in good shape and no plans had been formulated for their next starts. "I'm glad to get Zenyatta's first start of the year behind me," said Shirreffs after the 5-year-old champion mare's tenth victory without defeat. "I have to talk with the racing manager to see what's next." Shirreffs is married to Dottie Ingordo-Shirreffs, racing manager for owners Jerry and Ann Moss …Two other Moss-owned stakes stars worked for Shirreffs Sunday on Cushion Track: Madeo, six furlongs in 1:15.20 for the Charles Whittingham Memorial Handicap June 6; and Tiago, four furlongs in 48.20…Wilshire Handicap winner Gorgeous Goose worked five furlongs in a bullet 1:00.40 on turf for trainer Mike Puype for the Redondo Beach Stakes June 6…Stakes winner Battle of Hastings worked five furlongs on grass in 1:01 for a possible start in the Cinema Handicap June 21.

Salisbury settles lawsuits involving police
SALISBURY — The city of Salisbury is settling lawsuits brought by residents who say current and former police officers violated their rights and used excessive force.
Meanwhile, one of those officers faces an April trial in federal court.
In October, Robin Otto Worth accepted a $40,000 settlement from the city and dismissed complaints against Salisbury Police Sgt. Mark Hunter and former officer Kareem Puranda, according to documents filed in Rowan County civil court.
The complaint said that after a 2009 traffic stop involving Hunter and Puranda, Worth left the scene and officers came after him. It said Puranda struck Worth in the head with his pistol, punched and kicked him, and used pepper spray and a Taser on him.
In November, the city paid Felicia Gibson $25,000 to settle her claim that Hunter violated her civil rights in 2009 when he ordered her to stop shooting video of a traffic stop and vehicle search and go inside her West Fisher Street home. Hunter then went into Gibson's home and arrested her.
Rowan District Court Judge Beth Dixon convicted Gibson of resisting an officer in 2010, saying she had interfered with Hunter's ability to do his job. That conviction was erased in January in superior court.
"After a thorough review of the evidence and relevant case law and after considering the circumstances surrounding the civil settlement between the Salisbury Police Department and the Defendant, the State is dismissing this charge in the interests of justice," a dismissal notice signed by prosecutor Seth Banks said.
Worth and Gibson had joined brothers Michael Fox and John Fox in a lawsuit against the city, the officers and current and former police chiefs. A judge split the lawsuits and ordered mediation.
The complaint involving the Fox brothers stems from a 2009 fight at the former La Bamba nightclub. The suit said Puranda and Hunter assaulted Michael Fox after he was handcuffed and that John Fox was assaulted when he came to his brother's aid.
The brothers were charged, but their charges were dismissed.
A judge has ordered mediation between the Fox brothers and the city, with an Aug. 12 deadline for reaching a settlement. Their complaints against Hunter and Puranda have been dismissed.
According to documents filed in U.S. District Court, Puranda is scheduled to go trial in early April on two charges of violating two victims' constitutional rights by using excessive force. A grand jury indicted the former officer in December. One of the victims is Robin Otto Worth.
The city settled an earlier lawsuit involving Puranda in 2011 by paying Wayne Partee of Salisbury $60,000. Partee had also claimed Puranda used excessive force.
No contact information could be found for Puranda. According to filings with the N.C. Secretary of State's office, he established a nonprofit based at his Charlotte home in August. Called Achieving Success on Purpose, the organization works with disadvantaged youth, Puranda's Linkedin page says. Among the interests Puranda lists on his Linked page is "building community trust for law enforcement."

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Staff Reviews Customer Reviews Q&A Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the Sony XM-GS100 by Buck Pomerantz My system has plenty of power. Who needs an amp? You might think you don't need an amp because you have a 400-watt system in your car, or because your new stereo puts out 50 watts a channel. But those are peak wattage ratings, which may boil down to 15 or 20 watts per channel, using the more realistic RMS rating. An amp sends your speakers the power they need to deliver your music with clarity and impact, whether you're using factory speakers or high-performance components. And low-frequency reproduction requires lots of power, so an amp is an absolute must if you're adding a sub to your system. Brings you the bass You'll get up to 600 watts RMS of bass power with Sony's XM-GS100 mono amplifier driving your sub. For maximum reliability, this compact amp sports a hefty heatsink that shunts off the heat that's generated when the amp's working hard. The XM-GS100 will also protect your subwoofer, with a Dynamic Distortion Suppressor circuit that rounds off the corners of dangerous square waves, minimizing the destructive effects of an overdriven signal. More features All connections are located on one side of the amp, which makes wiring simpler and neater. The tuning controls sit protected under a cover so they won't get inadvertently moved. You'll find a low-pass filter for keeping high notes away, along with a subsonic filter that helps tune your bass for a ported enclosure so the lowest notes don't get out of control. You can crank up the variable bass boost if you need some more bump. Sony protects this amp with a 3-year warranty, and that says a lot.

We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Features Crossover: The low pass crossover is always engaged (cannot be bypassed); the crossover point is continuously variable from 50 to 300 Hz. Subsonic Filter: The subsonic filter's cutoff frequency is continuously variable from 6 to 70 Hz. Bass Boost: For added low frequency output, the amplifier has bass boost circuits centered at 40 Hz, variable from 0 to +10 dB. Protection Circuitry: The amp has three protection circuits: Thermal: turns the amp off when the operating temperature is too high Short circuit: turns the amp off when the speaker outputs are short-circuited DC Offset: turns the amp off when it generates direct current Power/Ground Terminals: The power and ground screw terminals are 0.55" wide. Remote Terminal: The remote turn on screw terminal is 0.36" wide. Speaker Outputs: There are two pair of speaker output screw terminals, internally shorted together so it's easy to connect two subwoofers. Each terminal is 0.36" wide. Speaker-level Input Harness: A 4-pin speaker level input harness is included, allowing you to easily connect the amplifier to a factory radio or a receiver without preamp outputs. Auto Turn-on: When using the speaker level inputs, the amp will automatically turn on when it senses an input signal. Preamp Outputs: The amplifier features one set of RCA preamp outputs so you can send audio to another amplifier in your system. The preamp outputs are not affected by the built-in crossover. Note: The preamp outputs are not active when the speaker level input is used. Product reviews from the Crutchfield Labs (what are the Labs?)

Quick impressions from the Lab Comment by Buck Pomerantz Staff Writer - Creative, Hefty little jewel Written by Buck Pomerantz, Staff Writer - Creative, on 8/17/2012 5:05:00 PM The first thing I noticed was the nice heft of the amp it's pretty heavy for something with a footprint smaller than a piece of letter-size paper. Over half its chassis is heavy heatsink. All the connections are on one side, and they appear to be gold-plated. The adjustment controls are under a cover, which is removable with a Phillips-head screwdriver. The instructions aren't in a bound owner's manual, but on a large fold-out sheet of paper. Make sure you read them carefully, they can be a little difficult to follow. However, the explanation of the Dynamic Distortion Suppressor feature clearly diagrams how it smooths the corners of square waves to lessen the distortion effects of over-driving the signal.

Will push a 2k watt 1 ohm rated sub efficient. Cons: None that I have found thus far. Well they could have put 40 amp fuses in it instead of 35 lol.. just joking. ;) Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Impressed Written By DrumDawg, West Monroe, LA on Friday, December 07, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I have this amp connected to a stock radio in a 2012 Miata mx5. Low profile so it mounts easily under the passenger seat. Running two(2) bass shakers- one in each seat. WOW!!! THIS ROCKS!!! At first I had it connected to the rear speakers through hi-level input (not enough voltage from rear outs) Then I called Crutchfield and they told me how to check the front speaker lines. Hooked it up! I'm telling you it's a space saver and this AMP IS AWESOME! I am quite impressed. Pros: Crutchfield Service and a clean amp Cons: need clearer descriptions of bass filters. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

SPEC Kit 304 explores how many libraries are using social software and for what purposes, how those activities are organized and managed, and the benefits and challenges of using social software, among other questions. For this study social software was broadly defined as software that enables people to connect with one another online. The survey asked about ten types of applications: 1) social networking sites; 2) media sharing sites; 3) social bookmarking or tagging sites; 4) Wikis; 5) blogs; 6) sites that use RSS (Really Simple Syndication) to syndicate and broadcast content; 7) chat or instant messaging (IM) services; 8) VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) services; 9) virtual worlds; and 10) widgets. This SPEC Kit includes documentation from respondents of examples of Web sites that show how each of the ten types of social software is used.

Hello there Martin Techs,
I recently purchased a new 2006 Martin Saber, here in Oregon. I took it out to shoot once, and noticed that there seemed to be an excessive amount of serving wear around the cam. I contacted my dealer and he suggested that I rotate the cable guard in, which I did. I shot maybe another 40 arrows, and the wearing seems to have slowed down, but not gone away. My neighbor suggested that I purchase another brand of string, but it seems to me that Martin's strings should last more than a weekend of shooting. Should I be waxing the serving, reserving the string or having the bow looked at by you folks. I'd sure like to have this solved ASAP, with elk season just around the corner!!! Please help!

Deloitte reSources 2013 Study
Third annual study provides new insights into corporate energy management and consumer behavior
Managing energy consumption and associated energy costs has become an important strategic discipline for American businesses, but this discipline is moving into new territory as economic conditions change and the energy marketplace evolves. What are residential consumers and businesses thinking and doing about energy consumption as the U.S. economy gains strength? Is corporate progress on energy management likely to continue as tactics become more challenging and require greater investment? What barriers are businesses encountering as they attempt to link energy management to overall business strategy and drive changes throughout their organization? The third annual Deloitte reSources Study illuminates the mindsets and behaviors of electricity customers in relation to questions such as these, and provides insights that can be useful in helping energy companies and businesses make energy-related investment and business decisions.
Deloitte, with strategy and market research firm Harrison Group, a YouGov Company, has completed its third annual study of electricity customers in the U.S. This nationwide study reflects Deloitte's commitment to provide thoughtful views on significant emerging trends and developments. It does this by seeking to uncover the actions that businesses, as well as consumers, are taking to manage their energy usage and to understand what motivates them to adopt new practices and invest in new technologies. The study also explores corporate commitment to energy management in terms of goals and capital investment.
The Study captures two perspectives: The business portion is based on more than 600 online interviews with business decision makers. The consumer portion is based on more than 1,500 demographically balanced online consumer interviews. High-level findings from the business and consumer surveys are now available.

- Tactics for managing energy consumption
- Measurement, verification, and reporting processes

I hadn't even thought about having baby #2 when I bought my dot for my first child. I was thrilled that a double kit was available for it as I desperately didn't want to replace my buggy. The extra seat was easy to fit and I loved the convenience of having both kids one in front of the other.

I can tell you that Martin wont cover string or cable cost after more than 4 months have past. The serving wear and separation look fairly normal.
I have the same type of wear on my servings from the cam to module overlap on the nitro 1.5s. I don't have the wear on the outer track. I apply scorpion venom to mine every 500 shots or so and it seems to have stabilized the wear pattern on the serving. I just keep an eye on it now and continue shooting.
Probably be a good idea to have a spare set in your bow box(just in case)

Bought a Martin, Then my wife gave me a Rytera so.......I joined the forum.
Then won the Elite on Archery Talk.
I am blessed.
well, its one of those things.... the servings are there to protect the strings from excessive wear. It is safe to shoot as long as the strings are intact. If the actual strings start to fray or snap, its time for a new set. If you do as the others have said, and do a little tlc to the cams/modules you can probably re-serve the existing strings and be fine.
Just so you know, you don't have to send it to a shop to do this either, or have a ton of money tied up in equipment; the Martin line can be torn down and the strings removed with out any tools other than an allen wrench and some patience... just loosen the limb bolts a few turns each side until you can slip the strings off. If you do a search on youtube there are plenty of resources available if you want to learn to re-serve those strings yourself as well, or you can throw a new set on and keep those for backup in case of emergency

great pics !! I can see one of the string eaters in pic 2, even looks like it has a couple teeth, and the dust isn't just dust it's little bits of fluff from your serving, keep that string for backup, call Hutch, get one on the way, 220 will take aluminum fast so brush lightly, I would use a small straw to wrap it around .. say a couple 3 wraps on a spray can straw

Good eye Mac,that groove closest to the axl has the edge rolled up sharp.pretty easy fix

Update on the cougar string eater. I backed the limb bolts out and pulled the strings off. They didn't look that bad once I got them off. I could see where they were some sharp edges on the cams. I took a large nail, just bigger in dia' than the groove on the cam. I wrapped the nail with 591 grit sand papper and slowly work the edges down on the cams. Tested the surface of the cam by draging my finger nail over the edges and all of them seemed very smooth. Put the strings back on and turned down the limb bolts. Gave several draws to test her out and everything worked fine.
Hope this solves the problem and gives the strings a long life.
Hutch, I think I am still going to order a string from you just in case things go "bad" in the middle of the deer season. I don't want to be left with my back up bow for several days while waiting on a string.

County Council asks 'Could you adopt a child?'
Monday, 04 November 2013
In National Adoption Week (4-10 November), Hampshire County Council is asking for those who may be considering adoption to contact the Adoption and Fostering Service for more information.
At any one time the County Council can be looking for adoptive parents for up to 60 children who, for a variety of reasons, are separated from their birth families. Some of them may have experienced abuse or neglect or come from troubled backgrounds. They all have one thing in common - they need a chance in life, the opportunity to grow and thrive in a family home.
In the past twelve months, the County Council has arranged 61 successful adoptions and is keen to hear from anyone over 21 who believes they can offer a child or sibling group a loving and supportive family for life.
Councillor Keith Mans, Executive Lead Member for Children's Services, said: "We welcome enquiries from those of all sections of the community, regardless of age or background who feel they are able to offer a child the care and support they need. Our primary purpose is always to find people who can help a child recover from the reasons why they came in to care and can help them go on to flourish."
He continued: "Being a parent is richly rewarding. Children across Hampshire need families who can open their home and their hearts to care for, nurture and support them. Finding the right homes for Hampshire children and supporting our adopters is our priority. We consider all enquiries on an individual basis and are keen to hear from anyone who feels they have what it takes to be an adoptive parent."
An information pack is available on request by calling 0845 603 5620 or going online and completing an enquiry form. People from all walks of life are needed, who can look after all types of children including children from different ethnicities, children with special needs and children up to eight years of age, as well as groups of brothers and sisters who need to stay together.
National Adoption Week is organised by the British Association for Adoption & Fostering (BAAF) and aims to raise awareness of adoption and encourage potential parents to come forward. There are an estimated 4,000 children across the UK needing adoption every year.

Cardiology Pillar of Clinical Excellence
Cardiology is an incredibly important branch of medicine because the heart can require treatment at any age. Our Arizona medical charity supports top-notch medical teams trained in the care and treatment of heart afflictions, but we need your help to truly provide the best care possible. Read on to learn how philanthropic efforts are benefitting the cardiology pillar of our Phoenix medical charity.
Mission/Purpose Enhance the delivery of cardiac care
In response to significant heart care needs, philanthropic efforts for cardiology within our Arizona medical charity focus on enlisting support and funding for a new Cath Lab at Banner Del E. Webb Medical Center. The $7.4 million project, which came to fruition with the opening of the newest lab in February 2012, enables the facility's Phoenix medical charity team to serve more patients and respond to an increasing demand for minimally invasive cardiac procedures and assessments. In 2009, an estimated 600 patients had to leave the service area for cardiac cath services because the hospital did not have the capacity. Support for this expansion will enable the facility to serve more patients and avoid transfers to other facilities outside the service area.
This will help our Arizona medical charity team save more lives each day.

Prep Basketball: Carson boys 66, South Rowan 44
CHINA GROVE South Rowan coach Bryan Withers kept waiting for his team to make a run and hes still waiting.
Carson cruised past South with surprising ease on Tuesday, dribbling away the final minute of a 66-44 NPC victory.
It was the biggest blowout ever in what has been a tense, tight series, but the Raiders left their intensity and their shooting touches on the bus this time.
South just couldnt get a shot to fall, Carson coach Brian Perry said. Believe me, Ive been there.
On the other hand, just about every Cougar was making shots. South (8-7, 2-2) actually did a good job against Colton Laws and Tre Williams, who are capable of huge offensive games, but Perry got 14 points from Marquez McCain and 12 from D.J. Love.
Jacob Raper hit three 3s, Andrew Hower hit one key long one, and Myquon Stout chipped in with a bushel of rebounds.
We got production from a lot of guys across the board, Perry said. One of my favorite plays of the year was Williams-to McCain-to Stout-to Laws for a layup. We shared the ball.
South coach Bryan Withers watched his teams three-game winning streak end in a train wreck.
We didnt come to compete, and I mean, we competed zero, Withers said. Its still a roller coaster for us from one game to the next. Im not mad. I just know Ive got to change some things.
Carson (8-7, 2-1) started sluggishly and South got six early points from Tvadis Wesley, including his monster slam of a perfect lob by Eric Tyler.
South led 10-8 after a quarter, but Howers 3 triggered a second-period explosion by the Cougars.
When Laws made two free throws and Love buried a 3, Carson was up 16-10. Loves next 3 made it 19-12.
We put up confident shots, Love said. They were open and we knocked them down like were supposed to.
When Raper beat the halftime buzzer with an improbable 3 from deep on the right side in front of Souths bench and cheering section, it was 31-22 Cougars at the break.
Just kinda threw that one up there, Raper said with a grin.
McCains 3-pointer midway through the third quarter pushed the Cougars lead to a dozen, and McCain scored seven in the fourth quarter as the Cougars pulled away.
A fourth-quarter tip-in by Williams made it a 15-point game, and Carsons zone frustrated the Raiders.
We just had to keep them from getting to the rim and we had to know where (Shawn) Spry was, Love said.
Spry, a junior guard, carried South as far as he could. He scored eight of Souths 12 in the second quarter and he accounted for 100 percent of Souths eight points in the third quarter.
But Qwan Rhyne, who has been in double figures 10 times didnt scratch, Wesley was silenced by Carsons zone after the first quarter, and frequent double-figure scorer Josh Medlin never could get it going.
Carson outscored South 21-9 from the 3-point line and 18-7 from the foul line, and there were times when Laws and Stout just kept rebounding until someone stuck it in.
We lost a tough game Friday at Statesville, and its tough to build on a loss, but maybe we did, Perry said. We gained a little confidence.
South closed the Moir tournament with wins against West Rowan and East Rowan and won by 15 against North Iredell in NPC last Friday, but this was a long night.
Everyone on Carsons team contributed, Spry said. And we just didnt bring it. When youre going into their place, youve just got to compete a lot better than we competed.
Both coaches were certain the rematch at South will be tougher. South leads the series 9-8, and neither school has swept a season series since South went 3-0 against the Cougars in 2006-07, the first year Carson was open.
SOUTH ROWAN (44) Spry 18, Medlin 7, Wesley 6, Carter 4, Hill 4, Tyler 3, Miller 2, Rhyne, Goldston, Holbrook, Corriher.
CARSON (66) McCain 14, Laws 13, Love 12, Raper 9, Williams 8, Stout 5, Hower 5, Howard.

Outreach activities at City Center include cooking and distributing meals to formerly homeless people; providing dharma books, pen pals and meditation classes for prison and jail inmates; activities with families in transitional housing; and bringing meditation and stress reduction classes to people in rehabilitation facilities, retirees and homeless youth. We provide memorial services for those who have died in residence hotels. Zen Center also offers meditation training for the staffs of these organizations and for other community groups. We welcome volunteers for the following outreach activities. See below for details.
Contacting Us
The proceeds from City Center's biannual book sales go to support Zen Center's outreach activities to prisoners, to families in transition, to those in rehabilitation facilities, and other venues. The next sale begins September 13, 2014. Please come browse in the lobby and donate what you can.
Many thanks to all of you who participated in Zen Center's activities on behalf of the San Francisco Food Bank. As well as a full barrel of non-perishable food items, we raised $120 in cash for the 2013 season. Although the food drive is over for this year, there are still other ways in which you can be part of Zen Center's outreach programs, as described on this page.
The Zen Center Outreach Department, supported by volunteers, currently brings meals to residents of the Richardson Apartments in Hayes Valley. The residents of the apartments are formerly homeless individuals who have conditions (physical or psychiatric) for which they require assistance to live independently. If you are interested in helping, please contact the Volunteer and Outreach Coordinator, Jeffrey Schneider. He may be reached at either 415.354.0379 or by email.
Zen Center organizes field trips and other events for children and families in neighborhood transitional housing. Volunteers with ideas, energy, transportation, talents, and/or planning skills are warmly invited to get involved. Contact the Outreach office via email or at 415.354.0379.
Prison Correspondence: We match prisoners who wish to discuss their Buddhist practice with volunteer pen pals. You need not have learning in Buddhist scholastics; merely a compassionate heart, a wish to be of service, and about half an hour a month. All mail comes through the Zen Center office and you may, if you wish, choose a pseudonym to protect your anonymity. In addition, we have a fund which allows us to send Buddhist books to prisoners at no cost to the pen pal. Guidelines, a sample first letter and on-going support are provided. We also coordinate efforts with Gay Buddhist Penpals, supplying books and forwarding mail. If you are interested in sharing your practice with an LGBT prisoner, please contact www.gaybuddhistsangha.org/prison-outreach/. Meditation and Stress Reduction in Jail: We visit the San Francisco jail on a regular basis bringing meditation and stress reduction practices to the incarcerated. This requires a commitment to a couple of hours at the jail at least twice a month. We are very interested in teachers of yoga or tai chi; especially women and people of color. If you are interested in the Prison Correspondence Program or the Yoga and Meditation in Jail Program, please contact Outreach Coordinator Jeffrey Schneider via email or at 415.354.0379.
This is a drop-in group for those interested in exploring the connection between Buddhist teaching and practice and recovery work. See our Meditation in Recovery web page for more information.

Facing an individual time trial on a difficult course which must be ridden at altitude, the participants at the Tour of the Gila had to be very careful how they approached Friday's stage.
That Levi Leipheimer set a course record in his winning ride belies the fact that the surrounding conditions were far from propitious. The BMC trio rode a strong race with Nydam the team's best finisher barely two minutes behind Leipheimer. Chad Beyer and Florian Stalder were close behind their team mate, each within 30 seconds of Nydam's time. With two more stages left in the event, including the Monster Road Race on Sunday, the Tour of the Gila is still very much a race where anything can happen.
Unforgiving circumstances
"This is a very difficult time trial because it is hard to know how to gauge your efforts at altitude," Scott Nydam explained. "It is a fine line between going at your consistent limit and digging just that little bit too deep to recover." The out-and-back course meant that the riders had a tail wind on the way out and a head wind on the way home, further complicating the riders' plans on how to dose out efforts. In spite of Leipheimer's record ride, the conditions did not make for a fast course. "There certainly was no faking it out there since it is a good half hour of just going as hard as you can without blowing up," Nydam said. "I feel my effort was well gauged where I tried to make up time on the climbs and recover a bit on the descents." Team Director Mike Sayers was pleased that his crew managed to keep close to the top 10 in the GC: "It's good that Scott had a top 10 ride because that keeps us in for the hunt through Sunday," Sayers explained.
Getting the most out of each other
Though there are two stages left in the race, everyone is banking on Sunday's Monster Road Race as being the place where real changes to the GC can happen. "Tomorrow's crit probably won't shake things up too much," Nydam predicted. "There is a little climb on the backside of the course which should help to keep things together a bit." The general plan for all GC contenders then will revolve around staying safe in the criterium and saving the big guns for Sunday's stage. "All eyes are set for Sunday, there's no doubt about that," Nydam confirmed. "Considering everything, since it is just three of us, I think we are really getting the most out of each other and anything is possible still. We certainly will be aiming for at least a podium position by Sunday night." Mike Sayers is keen to see the BMC riders get time to recover between now and the road race. "It is such a tight schedule with a late crit Saturday and then an early call for the stage Sunday that it is very important that the guys get as much rest as possible," Sayers explained. "The guys are strong and we're confident about our chances."

text: I see camo options for the Martin line. I don't see any/much for the Rytera models. I was looking at a Strother on AT, in the sale section. It has the Predator camo on it, and it looks cool. I've seen plenty of hunting clothes that are white with the bare tree branch look. I would like to see an option for that camo pattern. Realtree is nice, but every fall real tree's loose their leaves, and are covered with snow.

Well for you guys that chase the wiley bird I just pulled the leg and thighs from the crock pot after 8 hrs and it's as tender as could be and tastes awesome. Have one half the breast left and it's gonna be cajun style fried. This was an old gobbler that I figured would be tough so tried an older simpler recipe for roasts and such so here it is if interested:
1 can coke, 1 pack onion soup mix, 1 can mushroom soup with pieces, salt and pepper to taste
That's it and tender as could be. Could maybe cut it back to 1/2 can coke if you don't want it to be very sweet. Now to get one with the bow this fall.

The Program in Medical Laboratory Science is not accepting
applications at this time. For questions
or transcript requests, please contact Beth Gaither, Program Director, by email
at firstname.lastname@example.com or by
phone at (336) 716-6950.
The Department of Pathology's Program in Medical Laboratory Science (formerly Medical Technology, also known as Clinical Laboratory Science) was established in 1942 as one of the professional schools of North Carolina Baptist Hospital and The Bowman Gray School of Medicine of Wake Forest University. Since that time, it has graduated more than 800 medical technologists who are serving in medical laboratories throughout the country. In addition, the program trains third-year pathology residents in laboratory techniques and procedures.The program is accredited by the National Accrediting Agency for Clinical Laboratory Sciences (NAACLS).
Excellent learning experiences are provided in classrooms and clinical laboratories where each year more than 3 million tests and analyses are performed. Program graduates are eligible to take national certification examinations given by the American Society of Clinical Pathology (ASCP).
Medical Laboratory Science is an allied health profession that employs sophisticated medical laboratory procedures to assist physicians in evaluating the medical conditions of their patients. Medical laboratory scientists must be able to obtain blood specimens, analyze biological specimens using both instrumental and manual techniques, and report accurate results in a timely manner.
To accomplish these and other duties, medical laboratory scientists must have a theoretical knowledge base and practical skills in clinical laboratory science. They must be able to think logically, organize and prioritize tasks, and function well under pressure as they perform detailed laboratory procedures.
