Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Set in modern-day Vietnam, DRAGON HOUSE tells the tale of Iris and Noah-two Americans, who, as a way of healing their own painful pasts, open a center to house and educate Vietnamese street children. Irish and Noah find themselves reborn in an exotic land filled with corruption and chaos, sacrifice and beauty. Inspired by the street children she meets, Iris walks in the footsteps of her father, a man whom Vietnam both shattered and saved. Meanwhile, Noah slowly rediscovers himself through the eyes of an unexpected companion. Resounding with the powerful themes of suffering, sacrifice, friendship, and love, DRAGON HOUSE brings together East and West, war and peace; and celebrates the resilience of the human spirit.
From the critically acclaimed author of "Beneath a Marble Sky" and "Beside a Burning Sea" comes the new novel from a master storyteller (Amy Tan) set in contemporary Asia.

Bel-Ami (Oxford World's Classics)by Guy De Maupassant
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Maupassant's second novel, Bel-Ami (1885) is the story of a ruthlessly ambitious young man (Georges Duroy, christened "Bel-Ami" by his female admirers) making it to the top in fin-de-sihcle Paris. It is a novel about money, sex, and power, set against the background of the politics of the French colonization of North Africa. It explores the dynamics of an urban society uncomfortably close to our own and is a devastating satire of the sleaziness of contemporary journalism.
Bel-Ami enjoys the status of an authentic record of the apotheosis of bourgeois capitalism under the Third Republic. But the creative tension between its analysis of modern behavior and its identifiably late nineteenth-century fabric is one of the reasons why Bel-Ami remains one of the finest French novels of its time, as well as being recognized as Maupassant's greatest achievement as a novelist.
This new translation is complemented by fullest introduction and notes of any edition currently available.

From @yenmag's instagram: "Be still our 16-year-old hearts. Our favourite teen novel is rereleased with a snazzy new cover. #nobrowncoverneeded #josephinealibrandi"
Sometimes the music that sounds the saddest to others, is just right to those who crave its warmth.
This young man has done a lot of things wrong. I've seen him do a dozen things wrong, but let me tell you something right now. He is not a bad young man, and he's certainly not a criminal. He dated my daughter for years and we took him in like family, so he's like family to me. And I can tell you this kid right here has got more heart than almost any person I know.

"This pic was taken by my uni bud, Rachael: my first foray into French tips! Home-done mani, using Barry M paints (Black – np47 and the all-in-one Basecoat, Top Coat and Hardener – np54). We watched The Great Gatsby (sad film, but pretty good) and then chilled at the TGI Fridays in Stratford Westfield (near the Olympic Park in London, UK). I tucked into The Inferno: 7 oz of beef topped with beef tomato, buffalo mozzarella, red onion, cos lettuce and jalapeños – plus a chilli mayo and Habanero sauce. Scrum-diddly! An 8/10 – if there was just a smidgen more of mozzarella and hot sauce, it would be a 10/10 for sure.

Yesterday, Twitter was all, well, atwitter with free agency rumors surrounding Pau Gasol. With a number of suitors lining up for the two-time NBA champion, the veteran Spaniard has plenty of options to choose from. After averaging 17.4 points and 9.7 rebounds per game last season with the Los Angeles Lakers, Gasol no longer has to endure the constant rumors about being on the trade block.
Neither party has ruled out a return to LA for Gasol, but that hasn't stopped him from setting up meetings with interested teams that could offer him a much better shot at a title if he's willing to sacrifice a little money. Gasol more than likely wouldn't mind suiting up in purple and gold again next season, but since he has so many superior options available to him, let's take a look at the top five free agency destinations for Pau Gasol.
EDITOR'S NOTE: This list is based not only on fit, but also on the likelihood of the match actually happening. Obviously Gasol joining a Miami Heat lineup of LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh would be amazing, but the chances of that happening are about the same as Lance Stephenson not being overpaid next season. Let's get to it.

Pocket pony! Isn't this just the cutest thing EVA?!
We have lots of cute horses and ponies for sale in May issue of Horse&Rider :)
The Breyer UK team had a collective 'awww' in the office, when we saw this photo!
"When I was younger I would spend hours playing with my collection of toy Breyer Horses, but when I grew up they all somehow got lost. A few years ago I opened a birthday present from my older sister and inside were these vintage Breyer horses. I was so touched I cried; she's the only person in the world who would know how wistful I was about this missing souvenir of my childhood."

Michael Morpurgo's WAR HORSE is the internationally acclaimed children's book that tells the story of the First World War as seen through the eyes of a horse named Joey, and Albert, the boy who loves him. Published in 1982, WAR HORSE begins in England, where Joey is sold to the cavalry by Albert's hard-up father, leaving Albert heartbroken, but determined to get his horse back. Murpurgo's compelling tale follows Joey and Albert from separation to reunion on an incredible journey filled with peril, heartache, hope and humanity.
In October 2007, WAR HORSE was brought to life on the stage at London's National Theatre, using larger than real life 'puppets' for the horses, a brilliant collaboration by the Handspring Puppet Company and directors Marianne Elliott and Tom Morris. The production moved to the West End in 2009, and it opened in New York City in April 2011. WAR HORSE also attracted the attention of acclaimed director Steven Spielberg whose live action film WAR HORSE, filmed entirely in England, opened Christmas Day 2011.

I'm frustrated and down and I'm trying to give God the steering wheel to my life but I just can't get out of this rut. I'm so upset, my life is a piece of crap. I just keep praying and reading my bible but I'm still frustrated and upset and I feel like a waste of life to be honest.
"Stories, like people and butterflies and songbirds' eggs and human hearts and dreams, are also fragile things, made up of nothing stronger or more lasting than twenty-six letters and a handful of punctuation marks. Or they are words on the air, composed of sounds and ideas-abstract, invisible, gone once they've been spoken-and what could be more frail than that? But some stories, small, simple ones about setting out on adventures or people doing wonders, tales of miracles and monsters, have outlasted all the people who told them, and some of them have outlasted the lands in which they were created."

Encaustic Wax Octopus Painting
Sharon Lapin shares an ancient encaustic wax technique for her octopus painting.
Print OptionsClose
E-mail This Page to Your Friendsx
A link to %this page% was e-mailed
Sharon Lapin fell in love with the encaustic wax process, which involved painting different layers of encaustic medium and embedding other items into the medium to create a "painting."
Materials and Tools:
1" x 2" wood strips
1/4" plywood
wood glue
colored wax sticks
damar resin crystals
strainer, double-boiler pan
blue and yellow acrylic paint
paint roller, artist brush, 3" paintbrush
paper, scissors, carbon paper, ballpoint pen
small screwdriver
heat gun
electric griddle
scraper or razor
miter saw
table saw
safety glasses
1. To make the board structure for the encaustic painting:
- Cut four equal lengths of 1" x 2" wood strips for the sides, mitering the corners with a miter saw.
- Cut a piece of 1/4-inch plywood for the top the appropriate measurements to fit the sides.
- Glue the four sides together at the corners and glue the top to the frame with wood glue.
- Clamp everything in place until the wood glue dries.
2. Make the encaustic medium by melting eight parts beeswax to one-part damar resin crystals in a double boiler on the stove. Divide the mixture into small containers.
3. Paint the background of the picture blue using a paint roller and acrylic paint. Let dry.
4. Draw random circles on the blue background with a pencil and paint them with yellow acrylic paint using an artist brush. Let dry.
5. Melt the clear encaustic medium on an electric griddle. Apply the encaustic medium over the painting with a 3-inch paintbrush. Fuse the medium to the painting by heating it with a heat gun to even out the distribution of the wax.
7. Attach the paper cutouts over the painting using encaustic medium. Cover the cutouts with a layer of encaustic medium. Heat with a heat gun. The paper will be fused between two layers of encaustic medium.
9. Melt a purple encaustic color stick on the electric griddle and fill the etched waves with the purple color. Let harden.
10. Scrape off the excess purple wax using a razor blade, leaving the purple color in the carved wave lines.
11. Draw a picture of an octopus on paper. Place carbon paper under the drawing and position them on a portion of the painting.
12. Trace over the drawing of the octopus with a ballpoint pen to transfer the drawing to the board.

I have a sheet of trees that includes hills that must be drawn in the proper order, but I want the hills to have different 'effects' than the trees. I could create a 'trees before' sheet etc but some tree sets are in front of some hills and behind others in a nearly continous band that I like.
I think you need 'sub sheet lists" that can have other effects that combine with the current sheet using various blending options.

The Union County Prosecutor's Office
32 Rahway Avenue Elizabeth, NJ 07202
Theodore J. Romankow
John Holl
(908) 527-4621
For Immediate Release
August 10, 2011
Gang Member Found Guilty
A Plainfield man was convicted yesterday afternoon of 2nd Degree Robbery, following a two-week trial in Superior Court, said Prosecutor Theodore J. Romankow.
Anthony Pollard DOB: 3/29/1988 faces up to 10 years in prison when he is sentenced on October 15, 2011 said Assistant Prosecutor Joshua McMahon, who prosecuted the case.
According to the investigation, Pollard, a self admitted member of the Rollin' 30s Crips street gang and two other gang members were "Papi Hunting" a street term used to describe the targeting of Latino residents during strong-armed robberies.
On April 2, 2010 the three targeted a Plainfield resident in the area of Sandford Avenue around 9:30p.m. as the victim was walking home from a store, said McMahon. The trio surrounded the victim, knocked him to the ground and beat him in an attempt to take his money, said McMahon.
A good Samaritan, witnessed the crime, called authorities and followed the Pollard and the two others until police arrived. One culprit managed to flee the scene, and remains at large. Pollard and Shanae Holliday DOB: 1/23/1988 were caught a few blocks away and arrested. Holliday previously pled guilty to robbery and is currently in state prison.

Using equipment you'd find in a human gym, your dog will learn core control and develop athleticism, balance, and strength. Perfect for dogs recovering from injuries, senior dogs, or those dogs that could stand to lose a few pounds.
Hollywood Dog
Teach your dog to be a star! This class teaches advanced set work with an emphasis on distance control and hand signals. At the end of class, we will help your dog develop his or her portfolio, with photographs and a YouTube video. Your dog might be the next great Internet sensation!
Scent Class
Calling all noses! Your dog will have a blast working through a variety of challenges designed to further your ability as a Nosework Team. We'll work on real-life search scenarios as you and your dog find lost keys and cell phones, and play games designed to develop scenting ability. Great for budding search-and-rescue dogs.
Come When Called
Does your dog come when called? If not, this is the class for you. We'll work on establishing a rock solid recall, getting your dog to turn on a dime when he hears his name. This obedience class is essential for the safety and well-being of your dog. Enrollment includes a whistle and a long line training leash. Three weeks.
Leash Walking
Taking your dog for a walk should be a joy, not a hassle. Do you walk your dog, or does your dog walk you? If you've got a pup who pulls, balks, lunges, leaps, squirms, and every verb other than walk when on leash, this class is for you. We'll work on heeling, leash control and response to distractions. Important: If your dog barks uncontrollably at other dogs while leashed, please call us before enrolling, as this may not be the right class for you. Three weeks.
Shy Dog
Is your dog a wallflower? If your dog is nervous meeting new people or new dogs, we'll show how to help your dog overcome his fear and anxiety in a controlled environment. Perfect for rescue dogs. Six weeks.
Therapy Dog Training
You've got the basics down. Now learn how to prepare for the Pet Partners temperament test for therapy dogs.

Six weeks.
Calm Down
Does your dog get rambunctious, excited and uncontrollable? This class teaches self-control techniques to calm your dog around distractions. Perfect for adolescent dogs. Please note: This is not a class for aggressive dogs. Six weeks.
Scent Workshop
You and your dog will learn fun scent games that you can play to engage your dog AND burn off some energy! We'll teach your dog how to sniff out objects hidden around the house, like your cell phone. Perfect for dogs that are high-energy or home alone all day, we'll get your dog thinking and using his sniffer. Six weeks.
Urban Herding
Urban Herding (also known as Treibball) is the newest sport for the Zoom Room – think of it as herding without the sheep. Instead, dogs herd large exercise balls into a goal, using their noses to push the balls in the right direction. Any dog can do it and it's tons of fun! It also develops an incredible bond between you and your dog and develops off-leash obedience and self-control. We'll teach the basics of urban herding including distance control commands to get you started in this fabulous new dog sport. Six weeks.

Anybody knows why he left, I mean the differences between him and Salazar?
|Heard through the grapevine
1) Webb didn't want to move up in distance at the time
2) Salazar was using him as training fodder, not focused on him
3) Webb balked at taking all of the extra "supplements" and getting prescribed all of the medication that Salazar requires.
i'm leaning towards the 'training fodder for rupp' argument.
|Heard through the grapevine
4) Webb didn't like Salazar's obessive focus on fixing his form and blamed this attempt to change his form for the injury he sustained to his Achillies.
It is interesting that the top runners who chose not to sign with Nike (i.e. Hall, Simpson, Huddle, etc.) are also those who appear to have the cleanest character. I don't think that is a coincidence. It would be interesting in a parallel universe to see what Rupp could have done running for a different company. It is sad in a way because regardless of whether he is clean or not he will always be tainted by his association with Salazar. (To a lesser degree all of Salazar's runners are similarly tainted which begs the question why any athlete resolved to compete cleanly would ever run for the Oregon Project. Anybody agree?)
|Nike chooses you
They don't choose to sign with nike. Nike throws them a bone and they jump all over it.
" tainted by his association with Salazar."
Nobody thinks this except from a few dorks on message boards.
|Heard through the grapevine
The same can be said about Salazar himself. Part of the reason many people question whether he is bending the rules is because he is so very close to Nike.
That's definitely not accurate. I personally know a current D1 coach who is a former American elite runner who thinks that anyone associated with Salazar is questionable. Talked to him about it at length several times and said that Salazar was absolutely dirty when he was running and he doubts he has changed any since becoming a coach.
|worst poster
Well, I'm convinced. Thanks for setting me straight.
Webb didn't want to take the 'thyroid' medication.
no one I can think of has a so called cleaner character than Rupp!
you know what, I can't say I was a fan of Galen Rupp's graces, but that video that surfaced of him taking a minute to go jogging with some kids turned me around.
That and the $5K he was paid for the jog.
You don't know what "begging the question" means.
I don't think Salazar's friendship with Lance Armstrong is helping his reputation much.
Birds of a feather flock together...
I do know is was a shame Webb. Webb should have moved up then.Heck he even beat Rupp in a road 5k . I wish someone would ask Alan for the reason(s).
Anyhow after watching the flotrack interview I get the impression Alan really wants to move up to marathoning
|not the only one
Dead on. Talk to some of his former athletes and see what they tell you.
That is absolutely correct. Doping to the level of sophistication required to dodge drug tests requires the resources that few organizations, if any, outside of Nike can provide. Lance Armstrong's case is becoming mainstream and in doing so is opening a lot of people's eyes. I think it will be good for all endurance sports in the long term.
So it really is that bad? Then why would any athlete set on competing cleaning run for Salazar? Do you suggest that those who run for him do not have the resolve to avoid PEDs?
Nike didn't help Armstrong dope. If you don't follow the sport you wouldn't know this, but every professional cyclist dopes, or at least all the ones you have heard of. Not all of them ride for Nike, in fact NONE of them do, because NIKE cycling is over, it has been for 7 yrs.
If you can't accept this, realize that USADA got 12 riders to testify against THEMSELVES and admit that they doped, NONE of whom had tested positive before and NONE of whom rode for Nike.
If you can't figure out how athlete's dodge drug tests and don't test positive, read The Secret Race. There are several other books out there that could explain this, but since you seem to be prone to conspiracy theory, this book will directly refute what you are saying.
I think you can buy it new for like $14.

CNET editors choose and review the best thin and light laptops, notebooks, and ultrabooks.
Thanks to its stellar performance and affordable price, the Nexus 7 is the Android tablet to get.
Pricing not available
If you own a MacBook Air from the past couple of years there's really no need to upgrade, but a small spec bump and minor price cut make the most-current Air even more attractive.
Apple's 11-inch Air gets a CPU speed bump and a decent price cut over the already excellent 2013 version. If you have a recent model there's no need to upgrade, but for anyone else, it's now a better deal than ever.
Debuted at Computex 2014, the 7-inch tablet runs full Windows 8.1 with features that fit its $120 price tag.
The Belkin tablet case provides a firm fit and basic protection, but its design conforms better to midsize tablets than 7-inchers.
The hefty pricing aside, the Samsung SSD 850 Pro is one of the best, if not the best, standard consumer-grade solid-state drives on the market.
The Microsoft All-in-One Media keyboard is a keyboard-plus-touchpad combo for home theater PCs that is both low-cost and simple to use.
Thickly padded, and handmade from premium materials, the Pad & Quill Sleeve for MacBook will fit your 13-inch Air or Pro and fills an important need if you don't want to use a dedicated, padded laptop bag.
This well-designed machine is a very good option for fans of at-home coffee and espresso. Consider the $159.99 Bunn My Cafe MCU if you want a more versatile coffee maker.

I was referred to this place by a friend. Called them and was surprised they had same day service. I was a little leary of sending my daughter to a repair shop but I didn't have the time to take her.She has a 94 Lincoln and had the battery light on. They gave her an estimate of $185 for an alternator and putting it on. I thought that was reasonable. When we picked the car up that afternoon the bill was actually $145 total. The guys said that the alternator had been replaced recently and didn't need to have a new unit put on. They put electronics in it and guaranteed it for 2 years. Glad to know there are still shops around that we can trust.
I just got my vehicle back from them. These guys went the extra mile to ensure everything was perfect. They even picked me up from work becasue I didn't have a ride.
The price for their service and parts was $700 less than another shop on here had quoted. These people are trustworthy. No wonder they have been in town so long.

Eye Health Center
Detecting Eye Diseases and Conditions
Your Eyes and Cataracts
A cataract is an eye condition in which the eye's normally clear lens becomes cloudy. It eventually occurs in both eyes but may be more noticeable in one eye first. Since less light passes through a cloudy lens, vision blurs. Cataracts are small at first and may not affect vision. But the denser they grow, the more they affect your vision.
Most cataracts are due to aging. Other risk factors include:
- Diseases, like diabetes
- Eye injury or trauma
- Eye surgery for another problem.
- Inheritance or pregnancy-related causes (Babies can be born with cataracts or develop them in childhood.)
- Overexposure of eyes to the sun's damaging ultraviolet (UV) rays
- Smoking
- Certain medications
Who's at Risk for Cataracts?
The risk increases with age. Other risk factors for cataracts include:
- Environmental -- such as overexposure to sunlight
- Lifestyle -- including smoking and alcohol use
- People who have certain diseases -- including diabetes
Symptoms of Cataracts
The most common cataract symptoms include:
- Blurred or cloudy vision
- "Faded" colors
- Increased glare from headlights, lamps, or sunlight
- Poor night vision
- Multiple images in a single eye, or double vision
- Frequent prescription changes for your eyeglasses or contact lenses
Treatment of Cataracts
For early cataracts, these steps may help:
- Getting a new eyeglass or contact lens prescription
- Using brighter lighting
- Using magnifying lenses
- Wearing sunglasses
If cataracts interfere with everyday activities, your doctor will probably recommend surgery. Surgical cataract removal is one of the most common, safest, and most effective types of surgery done in the U.S. Delaying cataract surgery until it interferes with your quality of life is appropriate and won't harm your eyes.
If you choose surgery, you'll be referred to an ophthalmologist who can perform the surgery, if you don't already have one. During the procedure, the eye surgeon removes the cloudy lens and replaces it with an artificial clear lens. If both eyes need cataract surgery, one eye will be done at a time with a month or two between procedures.
Ways to Prevent Cataracts
You may help delay cataract development by: avoiding overexposure to sunlight -- wear sunglasses with ultraviolet protection and a wide-brimmed hat.
Diabetic Eye Disease
People with diabetes are at risk for developing several eye diseases:
- Diabetic retinopathy
- Glaucoma
- Cataracts
Diabetic retinopathy is the most common eye disease in people with diabetes. It affects over 5 million Americans aged 18 and older. Usually both eyes develop the disease. Diabetic retinopathy progresses in four stages. The most severe is proliferative retinopathy.
Damaged blood vessels due to diabetic retinopathy can cause vision loss and blindness two ways:
- Fluid leaks into the center of the retina, called the macula. This area of the retina is where central vision takes place. The fluid causes the macula to swell, blurring vision.
- In proliferative retinopathy, new and abnormal blood vessels grow. These vessels blur vision by leaking blood into the center of the eye and causing scar tissue, and that can lead to retinal detachment.

HAMMOND | An angry Kristi Hoese used a timeout early in the first game of Saturday's Clark Class 3A Sectional championship to voice her displeasure with Griffith's play.
The verbal lashing took a game to set in, but the Panthers eventually responded and swept the host Pioneers 25-19, 25-14, 25-4 to win their second straight sectional title Saturday night. It was Griffith's third title in four years.
Griffith came into the sectional on three straight losses to Munster, Andrean and Bishop Noll, but Hoese didn't think much of those defeats.
"We came into the sectional with a 0-0 record," the first-year Griffith coach said. "We came in with a positive mindset. We need to play our game and not stoop to other teams' levels, which we tend to do."
Griffith beat Gavit Thursday night but had a tough afternoon semifinal against Lew Wallace, which resulted in a blowout and unsteady play.
Clark (8-22) came out feisty and set Griffith on its heels.
Back-to-back solo block kills by senior Tique Woods gave the Pioneers a 12-11 lead, which caused Hoese to take the timeout. The break didn't deter Clark, which has seen its share of tough luck this season.
"They played the best they could," Clark coach Stephanie Vargas said. "We've overcome injuries and a lot of lineup changes. We lost our senior setter Sara Kruszynski in the third week of the season and we have had to fight back from that.
"The girls have done everything I've asked of them."
The Panthers also responded to their coach's plea to clean up their game.
In the second set, junior setter Rhiannon Kozy served six straight points to give Griffith a 13-6 lead. That run included three kills by senior outside hitter Lisette Roldan and one kill by her freshman sister Talia.
The Panthers maintained control of the set, then took that momentum into the third set -- a 25-4 win -- to sweep the Pioneers.
"Clark came out strong," Hoese said. "They gave us a run for our money. But our girls did a great job. Our passing game allowed us to use our hitting game."
Lisette Roldan finished with 12 kills and Talia Roldan notched 16.
For Lisette, a third sectional title in four years means a lot. She's also had three coaches in four years.
"We really haven't had the best of records," she said, "but I told my teammates that we had nothing to lose. We just needed to play the best we can."
The Panthers will host New Prairie in Tuesday's regional.
Clark advanced to the championship match by beating Hammond 25-21, 25-15, 25-20. In the second semifinal, Griffith beat Lew Wallace 25-10, 25-10, 25-5.

Meditation Seriously Improves your Beauty and General Awesomeness
I appeal to your vanity. If you are not moved to take up meditation to improve your immune system and cardiovascular health, to reduce stress and realise your purpose in life, then do it for your face.
In 2009 Carol Geider won the Nobel prize in physiology for her research in telomerase, the immortality enzyme that slows cellular ageing.
Telomerase is an enzyme that maintains the DNA at the end of our chromosomes. Without telomerase, every time our cells divide, the ends of our chromosomes get shorter. It's a part of the natural aging process, since most cells in our body have little active telomerase. Eventually, the ends of our chromosomes become so short, cells die. They die!
Scientists who look at longevity, fixate on the end of our chromosomes. The longer the end of our chromosomes are, the better job they are doing to protect and preserve our DNA.
One study showed that when people meditate for as little as 12 minutes per day, telomerase activity increases by a whopping 43 percent.
The study also showed that meditation improves mental and cognitive function, and lowered the level of depressive symptoms, yada yada yada – but imagine what this could do to your face!

In retrospect, George Seaton's adaptation of The Country Girl seems like the movie that was made to prove that both Bing Crosby and Grace Kelly could act. The tale of an alcoholic actor and singer (Crosby) and his long-suffering wife (Kelly) whose marriage is put to the test when he gets a second chance at stardom, Clifford Odets' drama is chock full of twists and turns designed to give actors a grueling workout, with its hidden secrets, tortured love story, and frank depiction of the horrors of alcohol abuse. Crosby and Kelly sank their teeth into the meaty roles with gusto (it helped that a rock-solid William Holden was there for each to spark off of), and both were showered with accolades that remained high points of their careers. Crosby was lauded with kudos for turning his charming persona inside-out, but it was Kelly who stole the show, possibly because at the time she was one of the hardest working women in show business. In 1954, the actress appeared in four films, including the Alfred Hitchcock classics Dial M for Murder and Rear Window, and finally ascended to leading-lady status after her stellar supporting turns in High Noon and Mogambo. In typical Hollywood fashion, though, it was only when Kelly shrouded her breathtaking beauty in plain clothes and a dowdy hairdo that she was taken seriously and awarded a Best Actress Oscar--one of the most highly contested ever, as she beat out comeback star Judy Garland's ferocious performance in A Star Is Born. --Mark Englehart

Tower Bridge in London
Often mistakenly called London Bridge, is one of the famous landmarks in London (United Kingdom). The bridge looks magnificent when lit up at night, with cars and pedestrians passing over it contiguously. The bridge consists of two towers tied together at the upper level by means of two horizontal walkways, which visitors can climb up to during daytimes.
Storm Breakwaters
The oceans around Cape Town can be very unpredictable, requiring storm breakwaters outside Kalk Bay Harbour. With the storms around the Cape of Good Hope a regular phenomenon, we were visiting Kalk Bay where the breakwaters kept the storm outside the harbour.

That's how I've been feeling all day. Someone slap me and tell me to do homework.
Overall this weekend has been two loops on a roller coaster ride. The beginning of this week, I just started my monthly and was studying for my physio lab exam. I felt okay on Monday and Tuesday, when Wednesday came around for the exam, my nerves shot up. I asked my classmates to stab my arm haha so I wouldn't have to take the test. No one did it though. Like usual, I was one of the last students to leave the class and when I turned on my phone, I saw a text message that my parents got me a car! Beyond excited, but relieved and fearful that my lab exam was done. I smoked with my roommate, her boyfriend, his cousins, and their neighbor. I was on a good one. I haven't felt that relaxed in a while and I slept in til 10:30 am! Never slept in that late this semester. It was awesome :3 I then went to class, met up with Michelle and Katie for peer advising to talk about classes next fall <— now that made me excited, but afterwards Michelle invited me out! Now that made me go through the roof! Haha went to Anatomy lecture and just couldn't pay attention! I just wanted to eat dinner with Francisco, Abbie and Vincent. I was getting hangry… lol I then found out that DJ boy was spinning on CAMPUS but it's okay, I caught up with friends. Didn't have class on Friday because we had an exam on Wednesday but I had an interview with Spartan Hearts for the secretary position and I stayed in the library til 2:00. Went home and took a nap and later that night went out with Michelle and Candice! It was a good night! I didn't know what to expect since I've never seen them outside of the school environment. They showed me around downtown which was nice! I now know a few places haha. Those two were done after 3 drinks and I was just beginning to feel it, but we went home at 1:30ish and I went to bed at 3 and had to wake up for Spartan Admitted Day at 7:30! F my life lol. I got to school 15 minutes late and stayed til 12. It was actually really fun hanging out with the officers! It's weird how people come closer at the end of the year and now that a majority of them are graduating, super kawawa! But it's life and thats just the way it goes. After Admitted Day, ate late lunch with Jordan and the two ladies at Kumako in Japan Town. YaAaAAmMMMm. I got hit by a door, but it was my bad because I was in the way :B and I FOUND OUT CANDICE is HALF FILIPINO. Ughhh what else? I took a nap after eating and just literally bummed it all Saturday. No bueno… D: OH WELL. WHAT CAN I DO ABOUT IT NOW?! Nothing. Feelin sleepy but not sure if I'm gonna sleep. Meep. We'll see.@1 year ago

Armed Forces International News - May 2012
RoKAF Black Eagles Making European Debut at RIAT
Posted by Paul Fiddian - Armed Forces International's Lead Reporter on 01/05/2012 - 15:35:00
A new level of military cooperation between the East and West is set to be reached this summer with the first-time involvement of an Asian jet display team in a European airshow.
The Royal International Air Tattoo - held every year in the UK - has announced the involvement of the Republic of Korea Air Force's Black Eagles team of eight indigenous T-50 Golden Eagle aircraft.
These T-50s, along with two back-up aircraft, will be taken apart and transported to the UK in at least one large military transporter, prior to being pieced back together and reflown. They'll then go on to appear at RIAT - one of the largest military airshows in the world.
RoKAF Black Eagles
The RoKAF Black Eagles were formed in 1994 and were initially equipped with a much older aircraft design - the venerable Cessna A-37B Dragonfly - before re-equipping with the T-50s in 2010.
A trainer, the T-50's nonetheless capable of supersonic flight and was designed to give student pilots an aircraft that handles more like a combat jet, preparing them for a future in which they might fly the likes of the Eurofighter Typhoon and the Joint Strike Fighter. Manufactured by KAI, it'll join a number of similar trainer designs on show at RIAT 2012, including Russia's Yakovlev Yak-130 and Italy's Alenia Aermacchi M-346.
Fast and extremely agile, the T-50 Golden Eagles can hit speeds of up to Mach 1.5, is stressed to +8G (eight-times gravity) and boasts an extremely advanced fly-by-wire system.
Black Eagles RIAT Debut
"It is a great honour for us to host their visit - and we're pleased for the UK aircraft enthusiast community who will, I'm sure, be relishing the thought of seeing such rare visitors", Tim Prince - Chief Executive of the Air Tattoo - commented in the official Black Eagles RIAT debut press release.
"The Black Eagles are extremely proud to be representing the Republic of Korea Air Force", the Republic of Korea's UK-based Defence Attaché, Captain Chong-Ho Choi, added. "Their aim will be to perform the best flying display possible not only for the People of the Republic of Korea but also for the rest of the world.
"It is a privilege to be taking part in this summer's Royal International Air Tattoo and I hope everyone will enjoy our magnificent display."

To perform a search, enter a keyword, phrase or item number in the search field and click "search."
We offer two ways to locate information:
Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.
Providing ideal weather for both budbreak and veraison, the 2007 growing season was picture perfect until late August, when a unique combination of extremes subverted the prospect of a quick and early harvest. A heat spell, unseasonably cool temperatures, rain and the threat of frost posed an unusual challenge for Opus One's harvesting crews. During the 21 days of crush, the crews worked 12 night harvests, delivering the first fruit on September 4th and the last on October 17th.
Reminiscent of the generous 2001 vintage in style and structure, the 2007 shows very high color intensity with aromas of cassis, nutmeg, raspberries, cola, fresh oats, dark chocolate and forest floor. Polished, supple and harmoniously precise, the 2007 fuses a seamless mid-palate with soft yet sinewy tannins. The wine will age effortlessly for decades.
The 2007 Opus One is composed of 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc, 6% Petit Verdot, and 1% Malbec. During fermentation and maceration, component lots received an average of 20 days of skin contact prior to 19 months of barrel aging in new French oak.
"There is so much to like about the 2007 Opus One. A wine that captures the essence of the year, the 2007 is exotic, flashy and striking. Kirsch, rose petals, pomegranates and spices form a fabric of compelling beauty. The 2007 is rich, sumptuous and generous, just as it should be. Threads of striking perfume are woven throughout, adding aromatic lift and pure sensuality. Readers who like more structured wines are likely to gravitate towards vintages such as 2010, but years like 2007 offer immense pleasure and an immediacy I find impossible to resist. A sumptuous, layered finish rounds things out in stunning style. The blend is 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc, 6% Petit Verdot and 1% Malbec."
96 Points
Vinous / Antonio Galloni
"Two of the strongest wines ever made at Opus One, the 2007 has terrific black currant fruit, licorice, incense, and subtle smoke, an opulent, even voluptuous mouthfeel, dazzling purity and texture, and a skyscraper-like mouthfeel. This is a sensational Opus One, with sweet tannin and impressive precision and depth. It can be drunk now or cellared for 25+ years."
95 Points
The Wine Advocate
"Tight and firm, with a chewy edge to the dried currant, graphite,
blackberry and mineral notes. Full-bodied and intense, without
being weighty, this is well-structured in a Bordeaux-like manner,
ending with a complex, persistent finish. Cabernet Sauvignon,
Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec. Best from 2012
through 2022."
94 Points
Wine Spectator
"Saturated deep ruby. Black fruits, licorice pastille, bitter chocolate and pungent oak on the nose, lifted by notes of red rose and fresh herbs. Comes across as less sweet today than the 2006 but every bit as penetrating and gripping, with similar inner-palate clarity and lift. Finishes very long, with mineral and floral elements giving it a light touch. Here the very refined tannins hit the palate even later than those of the 2006. Not yet as complex as the earlier vintage, however; this still needs to put on some weight in the middle. "But the 2006 was even leaner at the same stage," notes winemaker Silacci. My projected range may turn out to be conservative. 91-94"
94 Points
International Wine Cellar
Opus One is a partnership founded by Baron Philippe de Rothschild of Chateau mouton Rothschild in Pauillac, France, and renowned Napa Valley vintner, Robert Mondavi. Producing luxury wines from its Napa Valley vineyards, the partnership made its first vintage in 1979 and has made wine at Opus one since 1991. The 2009 vintage is distributed in all 50 states and is sold in 65 countries worldwide.
It's hard not to think of Napa Valley when thinking of California wines. The region is, after all, the one that brought world recognition to California wine making. The area was settled by a few choice wine families in the 1960's who bet that the wines of the area would grow and flourish. They were right.

Electrical Frequencies and Health
Royal Raymond Rife, M.D., developed a high-powered microscope in the 1920's that could magnify an object almost 1,500 times. He could see viruses, bacteria, parasites, toxins, etc. in the blood. From this work he developed a "frequency generator" which could generate various electrical frequencies to be passed through an affected or diseased part of the body. [It has been known by medicine for over a hundred years that electrical currents passed through a wound or broken bone will greatly accelerate the healing process.] Furthering his work, he validated certain frequencies could prevent the development of disease, and others would destroy disease!
Nikola Tesla said that if you could eliminate certain outside frequencies that interfered in our bodies, we would have greater resistance toward disease.
Bjorn Nordenstrom, a radiologist of Stockholm, Sweden, who wrote "Biologically Closed Circuits," discovered in the early 1980s that by putting an electrode inside a tumor and running a milliamp D.C. current through the electrode, he could dissolve the cancer tumor and stop its growth. He found that the human body had electropositive and electronegative energy fields.
Dr. Otto Warburg was a two-time Nobel Laureate and winner of the Nobel Prize for cancer research, for discovering that human cells have an electrical voltage.
What Does Hertz Mean?
All atoms in the universe have vibrational motion. Each periodic motion has a "frequency", (the number of oscillations per second), measured in Hertz:
1 Hertz (Hz) = 1 oscillation per second (ops)
1 Kilo Hertz (KHz) = 1,000 ops
1 Mega Hertz (MHz) = 1,000,000 ops or 1 million
1 Giga Hertz (GHz) = 1,000,000,000 ops or 1 billion
1 Tetra Hertz (THz) = 1,000,000,000,000 ops or 1 trillion
Essential oils are measured in Megahertz frequencies
1. Low Frequency Oils that support physical ailments.
2. Mid Frequency Oils that promote emotional change.
3. High Frequency Oils that encourage spiritual growth and realization.
Human cells start to mutate when their frequency drops below 62 MHz.
Normal Brain Frequency 72 Hz
Human Body 62-78 Hz
Human Body: from Neck up 72-78 Hz
Human Body: from Neck down 60-68 Hz
Colds and Flu start at: 57-60 Hz
Disease starts at: 58 Hz
Candida overgrowth starts at: 55 Hz
Receptive to Epstein Barr at: 52 Hz
Receptive to Cancer at: 42 Hz
Death begins at: 25 Hz

Hello, friend. Welcome to Strength In Confidence.
The name's Brendan Kew. I'm the owner and operator of this blog. Nice to meet you.
Strength In Confidence is dedicated to turning the average young bloke (just like you) into a confident, strong, respectable man.
On my blog confidence is the number one priority. Confidence is everything. It's knowledge. It's self-esteem and your sense of pride. It's dignity and resilience. But most importantly- confidence is your strength.
Confidence is what makes you truly strong. Get the confidence and you'll get the strength. That's what Strength In Confidence means. That's what I strive for, and it's what you should strive for.
It's only fitting my content reflect that. Every article on my blog is written for the purpose of confidence. Whether I dish out knowledge, personal experiences and methods of madness or I roast bullshitter and spread my ideals it's all about confidence.
For the sake of being upfront there's something else you should know- political correctness has no place on my blog. Shit is what it is. It defeats the purpose of building confidence if you just run away from everything popular opinion doesn't agree with.
