Could you explain to me how it makes sense then that T'Pau should leave out that rather important detail to Kirk (especially after Spock tells her that Kirk does not understand that Spock will do what he must)?
You're attributing to T'Pau a concern for Kirk's welfare that is nowhere evident at this point in the episode. She's pissed that he is even there at all.
Big Daddy wrote:
For that matter, wouldn't Spock have let Kirk in on the possibility that he might have to fight someone to the death when he confided to Kirk in his quarters about what was happening to him?
And now you're attributing to Spock the ability to foresee the future. He had no way of knowing T'Pring would invoke the challenge, and certainly no way of foreseeing how Kirk could end up as his challenger.
And she'd given Kirk the opportunity to decline the challenge since he wasn't Vulcan.

It's a TV show that needs to build mystery and suspense. They aren't going to let the cat out of the bag all at once.
Indeed not, it wouldn't be half as interesting a deconstruction of the stoic Vulcan mystique.

Toreador, en garde!
The Metropolitan Opera's summer schedule of "Encore" rebroadcasts of choice productions on the big screen gets under way 7 p.m. Wednesday at both the Regal and Century theaters. Elina Garanca has the title role in a steaming "Carmen." Roberto Alagna is the love-struck and violence-prone army deserter Don Jose. Seduction, smuggling and bull fighting all on the big stage.
Top of McKinley
Last month author Tom Walker had the Anchorage Museum crowd spellbound for two hours when he presented his slide talk about Harry Karstens and the first successful climb of Mount McKinley. Karstens and the climb are the subject of Walker's new book, "The Seventymile Kid." He'll repeat the program 7 p.m. Thursday at Loussac Library. If you missed the first talk, make sure you catch this one. If you miss 'em both, buy the book.
Church recital
You may remember Ernestine Dillard for her performance of "God Bless America" in a nationally televised memorial for the victims of the Oklahoma City bombing, with President Clinton and Billy Graham in attendance. She will sing live 7:30 p.m. Wednesday at Anchorage Lutheran Church in a recital with organ wizard Lonnie Liggitt, who has some piano numbers in the mix for this occasion. The program includes religious songs and works by Chopin, Beethoven, Gershwin and Puccini. Admission is by donation to keep these music programs going at the church, N Street and 15th Avenue.

text: The two main concepts revisited in the multi-channel sound image are the spatial impression, much more developed than stereo and location all around the listener with the problems based on the principle of auditory attention it can generate (dis-location and distraction). The tell-location describes the visual and auditory fusion problems when hearing locations do not correspond to visual sources. The distraction balance describes the reactions of reflex orientation of attention in the side and rear areas, triggered by the sounds with a certain salience. Here is a proposal for appropriate objective criteria for the analysis of multi-channel sound image.

Abacus Children's Academy is a Preschool and Infant Care in Pflugerville which has an essence of authentic Montessori teaching.
We lightly touch on Montessori style, teaching life skills and encourage a love of learning through out the entire school.
We do not operate like a day care and therefore have a learning approach to all aspects of your child's time at Abacus, we will always ensure that every family's experience is a happy one.
"Our task is to Educate their (our students) whole being so they can face the future. We may not see the future, but they will and our job is to help them make something of it." ~~Sir Ken Robinson
What is Preschool?
The term 'preschool' means: a child's age and a type of curriculum.
Any program can call themselves a Preschool.
It's up to you to decide which is best for your child and does the Preschool hold a curriculum and actually teach it too.
Our program is unique and being new to Pflugerville we have brought a completely different yet very traditional way of combined care and education.
Please note that due to security around our children we do not allow walk-in tours and suggest you contact our center to book an appointment. You would need to present a State Photo ID or Driving License before we can allow you into the building.
We believe that every child is unique and will grow at his or her own pace. Our teachers spend time nurturing children's strengths and encouraging them to reach new heights.
Join one of our kids' camps. Seasonal classes are now available.

If at first you do succeed, try, try again.
When Eddie Robinson finally stepped down as Grambling's head coach, he was replaced by Doug Williams in 1998. Williams would then lead Grambling to three straight SWAC conference titles from 2000 to 2002 before leaving the job to take a position in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers front office.
Williams, the MVP of Super Bowl XXII, stayed with Tampa Bay until last year before becoming the general manager of the UFL's Virginia Destroyers franchise. Well, it seems that being a general manager in the UFL wasn't all that much fun for Williams, as he's now decided he'd rather return to Grambling to be the school's head coach once again.
"I was looking forward to working with the Destroyers, but this is a great opportunity for me and it is very rare that a father gets to coach his son at the college football level," Williams said. " I went to school there, I coached there, and now I have a great opportunity to coach there again.
"I will keep tabs on the Destroyers and know they are going to do well. They have a great fan base in an area that is a football hotbed and the UFL will succeed there."
Another factor in this decision for Williams? His son Doug Williams Jr. is currently a member of the Grambling football team.

General Electric Co. v. Wilkins
Addressing a claim to inventorship of an individual not listed as an inventor on two patents, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit affirmed a lower court's ruling that a former employee was not an inventor of a GE patent, finding that the employee did not present any credible testimony that could be corroborated. General Electric Co. v. Wilkins, Case No. 13-1170 (Fed. Cir., May 8, 2014) (Lourie, J.)
Plaintiffs General Electric Co. and GE Wind Energy, LLC, (collectively GE) filed suit seeking to quiet title to two of their patents related to wind turbines. Both patents listed several German GE employees as inventors. Defendant Wilkins worked in the United States wind energy group for a GE predecessor in the early 2000s, at the same time the inventions were made in Germany. During development of the inventions, the German inventors contacted Wilkins to learn about the United States' power grid requirements, and later Wilkins traveled to Germany to discuss the inventions.
Prior to the quiet title action, GE filed a U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) action against Mitsubishi regarding the patents. In the ITC action, an administrative law judge found that Wilkins was a co-inventor, but found that the patents were not unenforceable because GE did not intend to deceive the patent office. Wilkins then agreed to license the patents to Mitsubishi, which prompted GE to file the quiet title action. The district court found that Wilkins and Mitsubishi did not prove inventorship by clear and convincing evidence, because there were no reliable documents to verify what, if anything, Wilkins contributed to any of the claims of the patents.
The Federal Circuit agreed with the district court that Wilkins did not prove his inventorship claim by clear and convincing evidence, because he did not present any credible testimony that could be corroborated. In particular, the court found that Wilkins was biased, as he was paid more than $1.5 million by Mitsubishi in order to permit Mitsubishi to "manage" his involvement in Mitsubishi's litigations against GE. The Federal Circuit further found no clear error in the district court's finding that Wilkins lacked credibility based on his failure to give clear answers to even simple questions, and because he was repeatedly impeached during cross-examination.
Wilkins pointed to a design document that he argued supported his inventorship claim and allegedly showed corroboration. However, the design document showed a key component of the invention in a configuration contrary to the patent claims. In addition, Wilkins admitted that his key contribution to the invention was the use of a component that was well known in the prior art. The Federal Circuit found that this was not sufficient to be named a co-inventor. Further, the prosecution history revealed that GE argued that the prior art component combined with a novel electrical circuit distinguished the invention over the prior art, which provided a further indication that Wilkins' contribution did not rise to the level of inventorship.

By Curt email@example.com Lee Street Elementary School Nurse Robin Nelson said she still remembers a little girl at the school, who "complained about having a stomach ache every day" about four years ago. She said she noticed something was wrong with the youth's skin color, and called the girl's mother to recommend that she be taken to an emergency room to be checked out. The little girl's skin was as white as a piece of paper, said Nelson, who has been the nurse at Lee Street for nine years, and previously served for 23 years as a nurse at Piedmont Hospital. Within two hours of that phone call, the girl had been diagnosed with a condition that causes intestinal bleeding, and was receiving a blood transfusion at an Atlanta-area children's hospital, Nelson said. "I think we [school nurses] are very necessary," Nelson said. "Our presence keeps your children in the classroom, because we can evaluate your child's symptoms for you. Parents feel comfortable that, even if they're not here, there is someone who can take care of the student." Wednesday was National School Nurses Day, National Nurses Day, and the first day of the American Nurses Association's National Nurses Week, which takes place annually from May 6 through May 12. According to the ANA's web site, the final day of National Nurses Week is always May 12, the birthday of Florence Nightingale, who the association calls "the founder of modern nursing." Several officials at Lee Street said school nurses, like Nelson, are important because they help keep students in the classroom. Nelson said she teaches educators at the school how to tell if a symptom is serious enough to warrant the pupil being sent to her office. She also said she recommends that teachers keep a box of bandages in their classrooms to treat minor injuries. "If it's a paper cut, put a Band-Aid on it," Nelson said. "You don't need to miss 10 to 15 minutes of class for a paper cut." Lee Street Principal Marcy Perry said nurses like Nelson are essential to school operations, because they have medical expertise that other school employees do not possess. "We could not operate without school nurses," Perry said. "We're so used to asking her [Nelson] for advice on medical issues. She just takes care of this school." Southern Regional honors nurses Southern Regional Medical Center Chief Nursing Officer Cathy Kenney said the hospital's officials have been honoring their nearly 700 nurses since Monday with different activities each day. On Monday, nurses were treated to a presentation on nursing theory, Kenney said. They got to wear old-style, all-white nursing uniforms, including a nursing cap. On Wednesday, there was a lunch for them. Today, the hospital will honor nurses again with a breakfast, lunch and dinner for each nursing shift, Kenney said. During the breakfast, the hospital's nurses of the year, in several areas, including patient care, helping other nurses, and customer service, will be named. On Friday, the nurses are encouraged to wear special Nurses Week T-shirts with their uniforms. "You don't have patient care without a nurse," Kenney said. "You don't have a hospital without nurses. Nurses are the heartbeat of health care."

Police want Carlisle bar shut down after 124 call-outs in two years
Last updated at 19:25, Monday, 28 January 2013
Police want a Carlisle nightspot shut down after it was linked to an "alarming number" of violent incidents.
They say the running of Time Bar, on Botchergate, is "totally inadequate" with officers called there 124 times in two years, according to a new report.
In a document submitted to Carlisle City Council's licensing department, Inspector Mark Gilroy said there was a "disproportionate level of police callouts to the premises" and "evidence of continuing crime and disorder".
He added: "Despite meeting on three occasions with the owners, door supervisor and Designated Premises Supervisor (DPS), and the implementation of three action plans, the level of violent and antisocial behaviour incidents continues with casualties suffering substantial injuries."
The report states that as far back as 2010 police raised concerns about the number of calls to the bar and the first meeting was arranged in December of that year to find a solution.
Between December 16 2010, and July 18 2011, there were 64 incidents – 43 of which were after 3am when other bars and clubs had closed.
Inspector Gilroy, who heads the police team covering Botchergate, was also critical of the management and overall supervision of the club which had resulted in three breaches of the licensing objectives and the "greatest number of calls to police relative to the size and opening hours" of the business.
He said that Time was "the smallest club open for the least hours" and that all the incidents were alcohol-related crime, disorder and anti-social behaviour – including GBH.
Between July 2011 and December 2012 there were a further 61 incidents reported to the police – 30 of which were after 3am.
On one occasion, police say, a customer staying at the nearby Ibis Hotel complained at 4.16am saying that the noise was "terrible" – one of a number of complaints from the public
Inspector Gilroy said: "The everyday running of the club is totally inadequate. A lack of competent supervision by managers compromised customer safety and causes a public nuisance.
"For two years police have tried to work alongside the managers of Time Bar in order to make it a safer and more enjoyable place to visit.
"Three action plans have proved unsuccessful leaving us with no other option than to ask for a licensing review and closure of the premises."
The joint owners of the bar were named as Ben Greenslade and John Heron – with Mr Greenslade named as the DPS. Neither was available for comment.

In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

No permit, but bikers plan D.C. ride to protest Muslim 9/11 march

A motorcycle rally prompted by a Muslim group's plan to march on the Mall will go forward on the day the D.C. area and the nation mark 12 years since the Sept. 11 terrorism attacks.
Officials with 2 Million Bikers to DC said that despite failing to secure a permit from the National Park Service, the ride through the D.C. area will happen — even if it takes all day.
"We apologize to D.C. residents, but they had plenty of time to help us with this rally," said Belinda Bee, national coordinator for the 2 Million Bikers to DC rally, referring to federal and local authorities. "We realized there was going to be a lot of traffic. We would have gotten through town in two hours. For some reason the powers that be in D.C. no longer feel Americans have the right to voice an opinion."

Month-long Observation Focuses on the Importance of Physical Activity for Adults and Children
ALEXANDRIA, Va., Sept. 18 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- For the nearly 100 million Americans who are overweight or obese, physical activity must be a crucial component to weight loss and better health, which is the focus of October's National Physical Therapy Month, the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) announced today.
According to a recent study conducted by the Trust for America's Health, a research group that focuses on disease prevention, obesity rates continued their climb in 31 states last year. Health officials say the latest state rankings provide evidence that the nation has a public health crisis on its hands. Last year, The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention cited evidence that found that more than 22 percent of Americans did not engage in any physical activity in the previous month.
A lack of exercise is a major contributing factor to obesity rates. "People who are overweight or obese must follow an appropriate exercise program that includes aerobic conditioning and avoids exercise that can lead to injury," notes Terry Michel, PT, DPT, DSc, CCS, a physical therapist at Boston's Mass General Hospital. "Physical therapists will typically recommend a low-impact form of weight training, such as exercise bands that help avoid excessive joint stress, and modified yoga stretches and Tai Chi for promoting flexibility and relaxation," she adds.
Physical therapists develop fitness plans for both adults and children that promote the ability to move, reduce pain, restore function, and prevent disability. For those who are overweight or obese, physical therapists balance the progression of the exercise prescription with the need for joint protection and safety during exercise.
"We are no longer looking at just adults who have diseases resulting
from obesity," says physical therapist Susan S Deusinger, PhD, professor

editor's review
Dnsmasq is an open source, completely free, easy to configure and lightweight command-line software designed from the offset to act as a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server and DNS (Domain Name System) forwarder on GNU/Linux and UNIX-like operating systems.
The software has been engineered in such a way that it provides DNS, as well as DHCP functionality to a small network. It is capable of serving the names of local machines that aren't in the global DNS and contains numerous attractive features.
Powerful command-line options
A wide range of command-line options are available for this project, which can be viewed at a glance by running the 'dnsmasq --help' command in a Terminal app. Among these, we can mention the ability to specify a local address to listen on, to specify the size of the cache in entries, as well as to specify a custom configuration file.
Getting started with Dnsmasq
Installing Dnsmasq on a GNU/Linux operating system is does the same way as you would do with any other open source program that is distributed as a source archive. First you download the package, save it on your computer (preferably your Home directory), and extract its contents using an archive manager utility.
Then, move to the location where you have extracted the archive file in a terminal emulator (e.g. cd /home/softpedia/dnsmasq-2.72 - replace 'softpedia' with your username), run the './configure && make' command to configure and compile the program, followed by the 'sudo make install' command to install it system wide.
Runs on GNU/Linux, BSD and Mac OS X
Dnsmasq supports for multiple operating systems, including Linux (Debian, Gentoo, Slackware, Smoothwall, SUSE, IP-Cop, Firebox, floppyfw, LEAF, CoyoteLinux, Clarkconnect, Freesco, etc.), BSD (FreeBSD), and Mac OS X. It runs on 32-bit and 64-bit computer platforms.

It's the one day of the year set aside for matters of the heart, but that hasn't stopped psychologists, economists, social scientists and even cybersecurity specialists from taking a more intellectual approach to Valentine's Day.
In fact, an academic cottage industry appears to have arisen to study the economic, cultural and even political impacts of a day nominally devoted to love.
Feb. 14 has become a favorite day to take the temperature of the larger economy, with global sugar prices, chocolate sales and lingerie fashion trends all serving as proxies. One survey has found that the deep recession and a still-shaky job market haven't stopped consumers from purchasing Valentine's Day merchandise for that special someone.
Total spending for the holiday is projected to reach $15.7 billion, a nearly 13 percent increase from 2010, according to the National Retail Federation's 2011 Valentine's Day Consumer Intentions and Actions Survey. In the poll of more than 8,000 consumers 18 and older, 59.8 percent of women and 56.4 percent of men said they planned to celebrate Valentine's Day.
"It seems consumers are not done spending on gifts, which bodes well for the economy," said NRF President and CEO Matthew Shay.
According to the NRF, the average American spent $103 on the holiday last year, but the 2011 survey projected per capita spending at $116.21.
While the tab is going up, the purchases remain largely the same - cards and candy.
Of those polled, 52.1 percent said they planned on giving greeting cards as gifts, while 47.5 percent would head for the candy aisles and 34.3 percent to local florists. By the time Cupid has shot his last arrow, the survey projected, consumers will have spent a total of $1.1 billion on cards, $1.5 billion on candy and $1.7 billion on flowers.
On another economic front, early February marks the equivalent of the biggest selling season for drug companies peddling Viagra and other sexual-performance pills. In the week before Valentine's Day last year, more prescriptions were written for Viagra's little blue pill than any other week of the year, according to figures compiled by the firm Wolters Kluwer Pharma Solutions.
The worst time for sales: Thanksgiving week, when families tend to travel and gather in large groups.
On a more political angle, the Republican National Committee is looking to score points again this year with Valentine's Day e-cards poking fun at its rivals across the aisle.
This year's series included an e-card with a picture of the Constitution with the message "Obamacare, I'm all broken up over you," as well as one featuring Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. that read "Happy Thanksgiving."
Relationship specialists such as psychologist Diana Kirschner have spent time studying Valentine's Day's have-nots, the singles and the unwillingly alone who will be bombarded by images of the culture's ideals about love and togetherness in movies, magazines and offices.
"These cultural forces have created unrealistic expectations for what's supposed to happen on this day," Ms. Kirschner said in an interview for the American Psychological Association website. "Couples are portrayed as so much happier than singles."
Ms. Kirschner suggested that singles get together with friends to throw a party, go out to dinner or attend a play.

Create website which makes money - Google Adsense in Joomla Content
If you have created a websute and have been using Google AdSense for a while, you know that your CTR rate increases dramatically when your ads are displayed within your content rather than to the side, before or after your content. There are many Google AdSense plugins for content , but many of them are simply "auto" - and thus you lack the control to determine exactly where you want to place the ads. For us, this is simply not enough control. We want ads to blend seamlessly with my content, thus we want exact control of where we want the exact ads to appear, whether we want to align it to the left or to the right and whether we want one ad in one article or three ads in a different longer article. These are many things which the other Joomla modules or plugins for Google AdSense do not provide. So we wrote my own module.
You're going to make much more money thanks to this plugin - Buy me a beer (€3) ;)
Joomla 2.5 and Joomla 3.0 - Buy me a beer version (€3)
Download FREE
Go ahead, take it for free if you really can't afford a beer :)
If you like it please link to us and review the extension on https://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/ads-a-affiliates/affiliate-systems/google-ads/22912
The plugin should be fairly easy to use. Install the plugin, put in your Google AdSense parameters from your pre-defined Google AdSense ad, and remember to enable it. Then go into your articles and insert { googleAds } (without any spaces) where you want the add to appear. Add { googleads left }, or { googleads right } or { googleads center } if you want specific alignment of the ads to your content.
If you find any problem while use it, please drop a line in the comments below, and we try our best to support you. If you like it and used it, please do leave a comment with a link to your site, it would be good to know that other people have found it useful. We consider this to be just a(nother) drop in the open-source ocean.

TVA lowers January power bill
Weather permitting, KUB customers will likely see lower electrical bills in February thanks to TVA lowering its fuel cost adjustment for January.
TVA has raised rates eight times in the last nine months. The fuel cost portion of TVA's January bill will be the lowest since September.
Heavier rains in recent weeks have increased hydroelectric production which helped offset higher natural gas prices and allowed TVA to lower the rate it charges distributors for power, the federal utility said.
The lower Tennessee Valley Authority rate will mean a 2.5 percent reduction in the residential rate for Knoxville Utilities Board customers during January, said Leslye Hartsell, KUB spokeswoman.
For the typical KUB residential customer, who uses 1,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity per month, that will mean a savings of $2.34 on their February bill, Hartsell said.
However, this rate does not include the impact of weather, which could drive up power usage and increase the total bill for a household, she said.
Each month, the TVA calculates the costs for the fuel it uses to produce electricity. These costs vary depending on the weather, global market prices and other factors.
TVA calls this calculation its Total Monthly Fuel Cost. It's based on a forecast of anticipated fuel costs, combined with an assessment of costs that TVA over or under collected from previous forecasts. TVA will do another calculation in January, so bills could go up or down afterward. Hartsell said KUB passes its costs or savings from TVA on to its customers.

But here in California, confronted with Prop 37, they went massively bi-polar, and spent tens of millions of bucks to contradict their own advertising: to conceal the presence of their allegedly wondrous GMOs. So now, from sheer precaution, many of us will avoid all GMOs - and insofar possible other products from corporations that sell GMO-laced foods. (By the way, the Organic Consumer Assn site now has a list of anti-Prop-37 donor corporations whose opportunistic product portfolios include organic and 'natural' foods.)
Not having a clue when they were well off, these arrogant corporations fought Prop. 37's call for minimal and non-judgmental - not warning - labeling. It will serve these corporations right that in coming years all indications of GMOs - or even the lack of 'no-GMOs' labels - will universally be taken as toxicity warnings.

"PDL helped revolutionize the development of therapeutic antibodies to treat patients with previously untreatable and devastating conditions," said Leonard Bell, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Alexion.
John P. McLaughlin, President and Chief Executive Officer of PDL said, "We appreciate Alexion's efforts to resolve the dispute and its acknowledgement about our patents' strength. Soliris is an important therapeutic product, and it serves a critical - and otherwise underserved - market."
With the closing of these agreements, the previously announced claims filed by PDL and counterclaims filed by Alexion in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware will be dismissed.
About Soliris
Soliris is the first product approved for the treatment of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) in the U.S. and Europe. PNH is a rare, debilitating, and life-threatening blood disorder defined by the destruction of red blood cells, or hemolysis. In patients with PNH, hemolysis can cause life-threatening thromboses, recurrent pain, kidney disease, disabling fatigue, impaired quality of life, severe anemia, pulmonary hypertension, shortness of breath and intermittent episodes of dark-colored urine (hemoglobinuria). Soliris is the only treatment that blocks this hemolysis before it occurs.

We often read or hear stories about older adults being conned out of their life savings, but are older individuals really more susceptible to fraud than younger adults? And, if so, how exactly does aging affect judgment and decision-making abilities?
Recent work led by University of Iowa neuroscientist Natalie Denburg, Ph.D., suggests that for a significant number of older adults, measurable neuropsychological deficits do seem to lead to poor decision-making and an increased vulnerability to fraud. The findings also suggest that these individuals may experience disproportionate aging of a brain region critical for decision-making.
"Our research suggests that elders who fall prey to fraudulent advertising are not simply gullible, depressed, lonely or less intelligent. Rather, it is truly more of a medical or neurological problem," said Denburg, who is an assistant professor of neurology in the UI Roy J. and Lucille A. Carver College of Medicine. "Our work sheds new light on this problem and perhaps may lead to a way to identify people at risk of being deceived."
Being able to identify how aging affects judgment and decision-making abilities could have broad societal implications. How to combat deceptive advertising targeted at older individuals -- some of whom appear to be particularly vulnerable to fraud -- is one important area of concern. In addition, older age is a time when individuals often are faced with many critical life decisions, including health care and housing choices, investment of retirement income, and allocation of personal wealth.
"By simply identifying a person as potentially vulnerable to fraud, family members can be more vigilant and can implement measures to protect the older adult," Denburg said. "In addition, a conservator or family member could be involved in transactions involving large amounts of money."
Denburg's most recent study, published Dec. 2007 in the Annals of the New York Acade

"We played a bit more defense than we wanted to, but we talk about how to play with a one-goal lead, how to play with a two-goal lead and how to play from behind," said coach Rogan. "I just didn't expect to play that much defense."
Saratoga's best chances to get on the scoreboard came late in the second half. In one instance, Nickles misplayed a ball near the right post as two Saratoga players crashed the goal. The Blue Streaks got a shot off, but it dribbled wide of the open net and went out of bounds. The other time, the ball got served into traffic in front of the Bethlehem goal, but the Lady Eagles defenders cleared it away.
"Obviously, it was a 110 percent effort from the beginning of the game to the very end," said Dannehy. "Even with 30 seconds left, they were looking for a shot. That's just the kind of kids I have."
"We weren't sure a two-goal lead would be enough because they kept coming, but we did a great job defensively," said Olsen.
No. 2 Shen assumed early control of its semifinal game against No. 6 Shaker (6-9-4). Kristen Connors scored twice in the first 20 minutes to give the Plainswomen a 2-0 lead, and she added a third goal in the second half to seal the victory.
Shen and Bethlehem meet Wednesday at Stillwater High School for the Sectional title. Bethlehem defeated Shen in each of the past two Class AA title games, but the Plainswomen own a 1-0 regular season victory over the Lady Eagles this year.

The Blood Type Diet Archives Volume 2
List of "Beneficial, Neutral, Avoid" food types for each blood type.
Posted By: Mark B
My wife is Type A, I am Type B. It would be helpful if we had a program or database to compare what foods we can both eat (Beneficial, Neutral) rather than flip back and forth through the book on each food group. I don't mean to infringe on copyrighted material, but does such a program or list exist. I could do it myself, but thought many with children/significant others could benefit from such a program.

I absolutely love my oldest to death, but the drama is killing me. While she is very sociable and quite smart she has absolute melt-downs at the littlest things. Tonight it was a small tear in on a drawing she made during the day which sent her into a 20 minute sob. Something like this happens almost daily. Is this normal for sub-5 yr olds and does it get better as they mature?
Stop the drama already!
Comments (9)
It is like having a freaking 15-year old in the house! I can't even look at the kid without her melting down. If I try to talk to her, she just starts saying "Blah Blah Blah" and lots of potty talk. God, I hope this is a phase!

I have to confess that i was hoping that some huge blow out drama was happening on this thread.
I'll second the kid drama though.
If you wanna make the world a better place take a look at yourself and then make a change.
My december born behaves in a similar manner. Many a times she has similar meltdown sessions which go on and on.
Recently its her peer's belongings at the daycare that she has become obsessed to. She wants me to buy her similar baribie book similar hair brush with a mirror.....any suggestions what should I do? I keep telling her that I can't buy her everything that she sees around her.....
ArtiT - I once heard a suggestion about writing down the things on a list. Some kids are placated just by knowing they are heard. And you can always go back to the list if any rewards or birthdays are due and have her pick something from the list (if still interesting) to wish for.

Oh thank goodness! Im not the only one going through this! The attitude and talking back is driving me nuts. When does it pass?! Or does it just get worse?
So glad to hear I am not alone. Are all of you previous posters moms to girls. I have a boy and I still get the drama. Like a pp said, it feels like he's acting like a teenager already.
Auumn is doing the same thing. She makes me nutty.
She said she was going to pretend to be a teenager the other day. I told her that shouldn't be hard for her. She just looked at me and all confused.
Almost 5 going on 16.
And I thought last year was bad when her daddy was deployed. I can't tell you how many times I was told she hated me.
I love her to pieces and she is so sweet but this attitude is driving me crazy.
My ODS just passed this stage. It went on for a few months. Within the last couple of weeks, he has really started to be a great helper with his little brother, and the talking back has stopped. Hope the same happens for the rest of you as we get closer to age 5!

However, more than 80% of data migration projects fail to achieve desired success, run late or over budget. This could heavily put your enterprise application deployment at risk and negatively affect your business operations. It may seem that migrating data is a straightforward task, but data migration is a critical and complicated process. Therefore, to make data migration project successful, it is important for you to identify the potential risks and activities in advance. One should follow an appropriate planning of the process is crucial. With this thought in mind, there are a few simple facets or pre-migration checklist that is typically ignored by many organizations while carrying out data migration project. Here're a few things that one should check on to carry out data migration project successfully: Check the viability of your data migration with a pre-migration impact assessment Before you start the migration process, it is important that you check the cost and viability of the migration process. Make sure you check all the terms, the choice of technology required and provisions for future risks. Make sure you define project estimates on more precise assessment rather than on a simple guesswork. It is advisable to bring precise and detailed analysis of cost and resource requirements. It will be helpful when you will have short deadlines with a complicated migration and limited resources. You can easily perform a migration assessment ASAP. Don't forget to involve the business and IT communities It makes sense to inform the relevant data stakeholders and technical teams of their forthcoming commitments before the migration kicks off. There are numerous aspects of the migration that require business sign-off and commitment. Make sure everyone understands and agrees to what their involvement will be. Ensure you're agreed with the formal security restrictions for the data migration project It is advisable that you get a formal agreement from the concerned security governance teams. Starting data migration projects without knowing any security aspects is quite unprofessional and highly risky as many organizations have lost critical data due to the same. Identify key project resources and their availability Also, it is important you understand all the key migration tasks and dependencies and then plan to have the right kind of resources available whenever you required. Work out on the optimal project delivery structure This is one of the most important aspects one should check before starting data migration project. You can go for any of the popular project development methodologies including Agile or waterfall design. However, it is better to choose agile as it is far more effective than a conventional waterfall model. It will help you incorporate later on changes on the go while making your data migration process more flexible. Prepare a well-defined set of job descriptions in order to help members understand their roles It is important that you prepare a precise set of tasks and responsibilities for all the members involved within a data migration process. Having a clear role of each and every resource will help you plan out well for the project initiation phase. Prepare right kind of training documentation and design a training plan Data migration is a critical process that requires a lot of tools and project support platforms to carry it out smoothly. Therefore, it is crucial that you prepare appropriate training documentation and put it prior to project inception in order to help the members understand the project's complexity. Ensure you have configuration management policy and software in place Typical data migration project create tons of resource materials. Profiling results, data quality issues, mapping specifications, interface specifications and so on. Make sure that you've a well-defined and thoroughly tested configuration management policy in place before you start data migration project. Bring a secure and collaborative working environment Do you think your project will require 3rd parties and cross-organizational support? If the answer is yes, it is important that you use a dedicated product for managing all the communications, materials, planning and coordination on the project. Have a set of data migration policy documents in place There are plenty of different policies needed for a conventional data migration to run smoothly. Have all the agreed set of data migration policy documents in place before your data migration project. Of course, this list is not exhaustive. There are a lot of activities one should perform and check before carry out a data migration project. However, the checklist discussed here includes all the basic aspects that may help you carry out your data migration project successfully. Need an expert in migrating your data?

STAGE TUBE: Controversial Music Video, WHAT THE HECK IS ART?
The controversial new music video What the Heck is Art? lampoons incomprehensible and meaningless modern artworks. It has already sparked widespread discussion about the definition of Art. Check it out below.
"All pathways in art are wide open for charlatanism. The audience can't find any comfort or elevation from the arts. All of the cunning, the rich, the idle, and the strainers for effect searching for the new, the strange and the offensive. Since Cubism and even earlier I myself satisfied the critics with endless jokes which they increasingly admired the less they were able to understand. With this game I acquired fame." - Pablo Picasso
"The Art Mafia have mounted a decades long brainwashing campaign with the effect that intelligent people, who in other domains are completely rational, lose their self-confidence and say, 'Maybe it's really art but I can't really say. I haven't the expertise.' The proponents of the Modern are very clever pranksters. Indeed, many of them freely admit it when they get a bit drunk." - Ephraim Kishon, Art critic.
Art Defined: Art is a thing (such as a painting, sculpture, music, play, lyrics, choreography, film, etc.) created by a person with high technical skills which conveys a message, an idea, a feeling or an atmosphere, and is intended to be received by an audience. Art is there for the audience.
The production of the video was sponsored by the cultural betterment organization UCAN (Understanding your Creative and Aesthetic Nature). UCAN was co-founded by professional artist and film producer Ulli Kampelmann with the purpose to return Art to its traditional definition in order to bring clarity, simplicity and understanding to the fields of Art and Aesthetics.
