Update on LuisLuis, age 64, is in a common-law marriage and has two children under his care. He lives in his own house in the Luchadores Sociales settlement in the Tambogrrande district. He lives in the rural part of this district, but he does have electricity.
Luis is a farmer. He has four hectares of agricultural land where he has planted lemon crops that he harvests weekly. He also raises small animals like sheep. Luis has over 20 years of experience managing his business.
He has requested a loan for 1,500 soles, which will be used in clearing the fields and fertilizing his lemon crops. He will also make improvements to the watering system for the crops (pay the day workers). This way he gives maintenance to his crops, which makes them develop. Then the crop will not have phytosanitary problems when it is time to sell it. This way he will be able to attract more consumers.

Luis cuenta con más de 20 años de experiencia en el manejo de su negocio.
El monto del préstamo solicitado es de 1,500 nuevos soles, que serán utilizados en la limpieza del campo y realizar la fertilización del cultivo de limón, además de realizar mejoras en el sistema de riego del cultivo (pagos de jornales). De esta manera, les da mantenimiento a su cultivo, haciendo que se desarrolle y sin problemas fitosanitarios al momento de comercializarlo, y de está manera poder atraer más a los consumidores.

Additional Information
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

i use a bodybugg so i keep a pretty detailed food journal that includes the weight of just about everything i eat. i track using a book - something i can take with me everywhere. it's actually stopped me from eating something unhealthy - i didn't want to have to put it in my journal! to me, that's the beauty of food logging - it keeps you honest! i do the same thing with my workouts using my bodybugg & heart rate monitor.
Whether your use an online journal or the old fashion pen and paper, it is the one thing I have done faithfully for the past two years. And with great success. Old fashion journal - has my work schedule, work notes, workout program for the day, food journal, workout results, great quotes, etc.
is my mantra.Repeat, repeat, repeat, then repeat some more, until the thing you didn't want to do is done.

Fifty years ago, Betty Friedan described the suburban woman as the unhappy housewife. She lacked challenging choices. Her abilities and identities were attached to her kitchen. She could whip up sour-cream-and-artichoke dips in a flash in an up-to-date kitchen with a refrigerator, range and blender in coordinated shades of peach, tan and aquamarine, but you could hear growing laments of discontent as the grrr in the purr became a growl.
The "woman of the house" became a frazzled chauffeur carpooling kids to school, baseball games and ballet classes in a station wagon that Detroit stripped of the wood that once suggested "class" in country living.
While an older generation of women were happy to have their husbands pay all the bills, the younger college graduates grew restless. Intellectual and emotional frustrations were exacerbated by pervasive and thoughtless male chauvinism. The desperate housewives of yore yearned for more, and turned against the generation of stay-at-home moms.
Second wave feminism -- following the suffragettes of 50 years earlier -- pitted feminists against traditionalists. Conscious-raising groups attacked "Mad Men" husbands and their male bosses who seemed to have all the fun, dictating to the women in their lives.
Fast forward to 2013. Kale in Gorgonzola swirls has replaced artichoke dips as the appetizer of choice of working women, who pick it up on the way home at the organic market with a carry-out deli. Liberated women won the fight for education and the right to work at careers previously closed to them, but now, having deserted the green grass of suburbia for the grim concrete of the city, they've encountered a new obstacle. Few get a room with the view from the top of the executive suite.
Sheryl Sandberg, chief operating officer of Facebook, wants to change that, to become the Betty Friedan of her generation, tapping into the dissatisfaction of contemporary women who feel stunted in both work and ambition. She has written what could be called "The Male Mystique," eager to shape female psychology in the mold of male power. "Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead" is about how women must learn to act like men if they want to succeed in business. She exhorts women to assert the aggressiveness that earlier feminists railed against in men.
"Lean In" both animates and intimidates women to ask themselves: "How can I do better?" "What am I doing that I don't know?" "What am I not doing that I don't see?"

SUFFERN, N.Y. — Pro Football Hall of Famer Lawrence Taylor was charged Thursday with raping a 16-year-old runaway who police said was forced into prostitution by a man who had beaten her up.
Taylor, a 51-year-old former New York Giants star who has faced drug and tax evasion charges in the past, paid the girl $300 for sex in a Holiday Inn, where he was arrested early Thursday, said Christopher St. Lawrence, supervisor of the town of Ramapo.
The man who'd beaten the girl drove her to Taylor's suburban hotel room, police said.
Ramapo Chief of Police Peter Brower said Taylor was cooperative when police woke him up around 4 a.m. Taylor was arraigned Thursday on charges of third-degree rape and patronizing a prostitute.
"I'm not that important," Taylor said to reporters after being released on $75,000 bail.
His attorney, Arthur Aidala, said Taylor is a "loving family man" who did not have sex with the teenager.
"My client did not have sex with anybody," Aidala said.
Police said the girl was reported missing by her family in March and had been staying with a 36-year-old parolee, Rasheed Davis, whom she met two weeks ago in the Bronx.
Early Thursday morning, Davis punched and kicked her, drove her to the hotel against her will and told her she had to have sex with Taylor, police said.
When she refused, Davis handed her over to Taylor, who sexually assaulted her, they said. Taylor paid her $300, which she gave to Davis, police said.
Davis was arrested on charges of unlawful imprisonment, assault and endangering the welfare of a child.

Recap: Gundam Seed Ep 05 Phase Shift Down
ZAFT launches its captured mobile suits — Yzak in the general-purpose X102 Duel, Dearka in the heavy-weapons X103 Buster, Nichol in the stealth X207 Blitz, and Athrun in the transformable X303 Aegis. Athrun takes the lead, and he Kira recognize each other while the Archangel prepares for combat. While Dearka and Nichol attack the Archangel, Athrun argues with Kira. Athrun demands to know why Kira has sided with the Naturals; Kira explains that he's just protecting his friends, and Athrun is the one who attacked a neutral colony. Yzak arrives to back up Athrun and attacks Kira, forcing him to defend himself.Mu, staying out of the fight, moves stealthily toward the ZAFT warships, leading Rau to believe that his Mobius Zero wasn't yet repaired. He advances his warships, leaving himself open to Mu's attack. However, Rau is able to sense Mu's presence just before Mu attacks, and orders evasive maneuvers. Mu manages to damage the Vesalius anyway, forcing it to abandon its attack run. The Archangel presses the attack, damaging the Vesalius further. Rau signals the retreat, calling his mobile suits back to the ship; the Archangel does the same for the Strike. The ZAFT Gundams have Kira surrounded, however, and they refuse to retreat, Yzak in particular pressing the attack. The Strike runs out of power, making it unable to use its beam weaponry and shutting down its phase shift armor. Before Yzak can finish him off, Athrun captures the Strike by grabbing it and heading back to the Gamow. Athrun explains that he's capturing Kira because his only other alternative is to kill him — and he doesn't want to, having already lost his mother during the Bloody Valentine, when one of the PLANTs was destroyed.Mu arrives, firing on Athrun and knocking Kira free. He has the Archangel send the Launcher Striker to Kira, which recharges Strike's batteries, reactivating its phase shift armor just as Yzak makes what would have been a killing blow. Kira counterattacks, damaging Yzak's Duel and forcing the ZAFT units to retreat. On the Gamow, Yzak manhandles Athrun, blaming him for failing to destroy the Strike. Dearka agrees with Yzak, but Nichol comes to Athrun's defense. Rau receives a summons to appear before the PLANT Supreme Council, which he speculates is in reference to Heliopolis' destruction. He orders the Gamow to remain on station and continue opposing the Archangel, while he returns to the PLANT homeland with the Vesalius as ordered. On the Archangel, Kira refuses to leave the Strike's cockpit, and has to be coaxed out by Mu. Flay clings to Sai in the halls, calling him a jerk for leaving her alone while she was scared during the battle — Sai appears rather surprised by the unexpected attention. The Archangel docks at Artemis, but before they land Mu has Kira put a lock on the Strike's OS, so that no one but Kira can activate it. Sai and Flay watch as the Archangel docks, Sai explaining that Artemis is surrounded by a lightwave barrier, a defensive shield that blocks both physical and energy weapons, and Flay expresses relief at arriving in a safe place.
Tropes used in this episode:
- Big Damn Heroes: Mu showing up to let Kira escape from Athrun.
- Deflector Shields: The lightwave barrier.
- Fatal Flaw: The Strike's limited energy supply.
- Five-Bad Band: The Le Creuset Team operates in full force for the first time in this episode.
- Psychic Link: There appears to be one between Mu and Rau, which is how Rau anticipates Mu's attack before it happens.

Travel Blogs from Hefei
7:Visit to orphanage and our Qiang's finding place
... he was one week old. The drive is about 2 hours. Thereafter, we will drive another 80km further to his finding place in Ming Guang. He was left in the neighborhood of the gate of the Children's Welfare Centre and was transferred there by the police. He was 6 days old when he was abandoned. Two days later he was transferred to the Children's Welfare Institute in Chuzhou; Chuzhou is the administering council for Ming Guang.
After a two-hour drive we arrived ...
China: Hefei - Day 4 & 5 : We're almost 4
... of any kind. All of a sudden we were standing face to facewith our little boy. One of the public officers pointed to Qiang and then tous. He nodded and that was it... the transfer. Cold and lacking emotion. Martijnquickly grabbed the camera to try and capture something of the moment.
Qiang was tucking into a packet of crisps to his heart's content. He was quiet and very amused..What do you in a moment like this? and what do you say "Hello... we are your new mummy ...
Yi Xian to Huang San-Maan Shan (Jiang Su Province)
... Tanggo is offering to walk up more to see another stunning view but no one is interested at this point so we take a bus to go down to our cars. A little bit more driving towards Maan Shan and we check in to a hotel at around 6 pm. Today dinner is provided by the organizer. All activities are finished by 8.30 pm and we head to our rooms to rest and recharge the batteries to continue the journey.
Rui Chang to Yi Xian, 536 km
... village in Anhui province. All the houses in the village are in a very good condition. And it feels like a dream. We saw many artists doing painting and stone craft. At 7 pm we were already back in the hotel and after dinner I helped the friends with the flat tire. Luckily we fix it fast, just 45 minutes. Time is running so fast. At 11.30 pm I go to bed as usual.
Swine flu relocation!
... locale called Hefei. It's quite to my excitement that I shall soon be calling that town home. No more water-less days and 6 story climbs encumbered by 5 gallon jugs of water, 5 potatoes, a carton of yogurt and a 2 liter of Sprite. Now I shall have water all the time and an ELEVATOR! Apparently at my new school they are no longer contracting apartments, you simply choose your own, and they have NO on campus housing! Joy of joys! ...

Trustworthy reviews are our priority. Businesses can't pay to change or remove reviews.
Lorena is very personable and very helpful in the planning process! She also did the Groom's cake and it was amazing! The cakes not only looked great but tasted amazing too. The fondant is like non you have ever tasted. It tastes great and is not heavy like I thought fondant would be.
This is the best place to get your cake!!!! They taste wonderful and make you crave more and more of it. I would wake up in the middle of the night to snag a piece that we had left over. The sweet pea cake company is the best in town!!! I would highly recommend anyone looking for any cake to go to her!
Sweet Pea Cake Company,owned and operated by Lorena is one you don't want to pass by. Everything was perfect from start to finish. Her customer service was exellent. The texture and taste of the cake was supurbe. The cake was delivered promptly on time was setup and was amazingly beautiful. We had numerous comments on the moistness, taste, and the beautiful cake.Why look further when you have the best? I will continue to order my furture cakes from the trusted Sweat Pea Cake Company. Thank you, Lorena for such a great experience.
Lorena provided my daughter a beautiful cup cake tower for her wedding. Many of the guests took pictures of it and said "not only was it beautiful, but the cup cakes were delicious!" Lorena works with you and is very flexible with setting up appointments. The cup cake tower was a hit at the reception! Thanks Lorena for working with us and providing a "outstanding" cup cake tower.
I have no complaints. Lorena was very accommodating for me as I was an out of town bride and had to rely on emails and phone calls for my cake and the groom's cake. I wanted a simple but elegant, beautiful cake without fondant and she delivered, even though it took her a little out of her comfort zone not using fondant ;-)
My cake was beautiful, just what I asked for!!!
Lorenna at Sweet Pea Cake Co. did my daughters wedding at the Air Force Chapel Sep 15. The most beautiful cake I have ever seen. On top of that everyone was raving on the taste and flavor of the cake. Lorenna out did herself. If you want to be blown away check out her website and check out the wedding cake that was done in 3 tiers with edible pears. BEAUTIFUL!!!! If you need someone to make your day special call Sweet Pea Cake Co you won't be disappointed. Thank you Lorenna for making my daughters day magical!!!
Lorena is awesome! I brought a picture of the cake I wanted and not only was she able to create it, but made it our own. I'm very happy with the results and her prompt responsiveness. We received compliments from our family and the photographer on such a great design. I'm very happy with her services and can't wait for our anniversary cake. She's got lifetime customers in us. :)
My daughter and I tried nearly every baker in Colorado Springs, and found that Sweet Pea Cake Company made the most delicious cakes by far! The owner, Lorena, was a delight to work with, and was willing to experiment with an unusal request: cookie dough filling. The results were fantastic! My daughter's wedding cake was exactly what she dreamed of, sooo beautiful, and incredibly delicious!!! We received many compliments on the cake! Lorena is a wonderfully talented baker AND cake artist. I highly, highly recommend Sweet Pea! Will definitely be ordering birthday cakes in the future!
Lorena was perfect and the cakes she made for my wedding were amazing! She helped me so much by knowing I could rely on her to take care of everything pertaining to the cakes. I went in looking for a cake designer and came out of the experience with a friend. She was such a help for anything I needed, be it advice, just an ear to listen to, anything.
Sweet Pea Cake Company made my wedding planning and wedding day such a memorable and stress- free experience! I walked in with a certain price range and she helped me stay UNDER that price range, and the greatest thing is that everyone at the wedding was able to have a slice of this beautiful wedding cake! I personally am not a huge fan of sweets but these flavors were unbelievable! I would recommend Sweet Pea to anyone and everyone! Thank you Sweet Pea for making this such a wonderful experience!
My wedding cake was made by sweet pea and it was AMAZING! The cake was beautiful the flavor was incredible! i would recommend sweet pea to every bride in colorado!
Sweet Pea Cake Co was absoutely a life saver for my wedding cake planning. I was deployed to Afghanistan for nine months prior to my wedding and had to do all my coorespondance over email. Lorena was absolutely wonderful in bringing my ideas for both our wedding cake and my husband's groom's cake to frution. Both cakes were beautiful and we received many comments about how great the cakes tasted as well as the design. I can't say enough thanks to Sweet Pea Cake Co for making our wedding cakes better than I could have asked for!
Sweet Pea Cake Company is a wonderful place to get your wedding cake. I was planning my wedding from Texas and didn't know the first thing about cake. So I started emailing around and asking about cake. Every place I emailed only wanted to talk about price. Not Lorena. The subject line on our very first email was, "Cake 101". Awesome. I was immediately drawn to her for taking the time to just email me about how the process goes. I hadn't even told her that I was interested in booking with her yet either. After that email, I was so excited. I knew that she would be the place I would book my cake. The whole process was so easy. I came in for the cake tasting and was blown away. She really can do whatever you need and make it work with your budget. She is so understanding and friendly. I would recommend her to anyone that has any dessert needs. She is one of the most sincere people i've met throughout my wedding process. She only knows how to do her best. I hope this review finds you well!!! :)
Sweet Pea was my first choice in cakes and reasonable price as well. she is a wonderful lady and so sweet. If I had any questions she would call right back. She was so easy to work with if I needed something changed she would do it and had no problem with it at all. she was always on top of it all and always wanted to make sure it was the right cake for me with what I wanted. she was like a mother to me she is such a sweet lady. Happy I had my wedding cake from her she is wonderful
Lorena was absolutely wonderful! I did not know exactly what I wanted my wedding cake to look like so it was really nice that she had alot of samples to look at and also suggested great ideas. All of her cakes tasted wonderful but ultimately we decided on the almond poppy seed cake with a honey almond cream filling with vanilla icing and it was AMAZING! It was the best cake I ever had and I have had alot of cakes. She was right there whenever you had a question, concern, etc. She dedicates everything she has to making you feel special and having the cake (for whatever occasion) of your dreams. I was so pleased with her work I am having her do my son and husbands cake at the end of this month! I would definitely reccomend her to anyone! THANKS LORENA!!!
Sweet Pea Cake Company just did our wedding cake/cupcakes for us on 04/08/12. She did an amazing job & we were so pleased with how it turned out. I will for sure be recommending her to everyone that needs a cake or cupcakes for their event!

Sounds like either a crossed seed or a stray variety crept into the packet. Two years ago I had a packet of melon seeds of which 90% were crossed. I ended up with all sorts of strange shapes.
Just harking back to the Cherokee Purple variety that I mentioned up the thread. Here's the first one for the season. Delayed because the plants went back into pots for a month while I was away on hols, and this one is smaller than typical for the same reason. Usually at least a third bigger.
Easy to grow, mid/late season, medium-sized plant, not hugely prolific so you'd need a couple of plants. Utterly delicious!
I'd leave them as long as possible, Madeleine.
The Costolutos are just heavily ribbed as they should be. "Costoluto" means ribbed in Italian. That's "cat facing" on the very bottom of a Costuluto in the second photo as punica alludes to above. It's akin to a hernia, a malformation caused by a hiccup in the pollination process. Just cut around it.
Are they C. Fiorentina or C. Genovese, Patricia? They look like Genovese.
Ken, if you're going to spray against blight it has to be preventive - spraying before any symptoms appear. You're coating the leaves to help against the fungal spores getting a grip. Once you see symptoms they already have a grip and you can't kill them off, per se. Your only option then is to remove and destroy the affected leaves. Preventive spraying starts not long after the toms are planted out and continues roughly weekly subject to the weather. Rain means respraying.
Mine are only just now starting to produce. Mainly because I was dragged kicking and screaming to Australia for a month's holiday in June. A neighbour agreed to look after the garden for me. But it's terraced, with the toms on the second terrace. Hard work dragging the hose up steps and along a terrace. I didn't want to put her through the ordeal so I dug up the plants and stuck them into pots of various shapes and sizes on the terrace for easier access. I also put them mainly under cover because the weather was hot and she wasn't sure how often she could water.
So they spent a month in whatever pots I had handy, mainly in the shade. They survived, even if they were sprawling across the terrace and pretty scrappy.
Planted them out again when we got back. Took them a week or so to recover and get to work. Ate the first couple the other day with many more on the way.
Your method is right, tracy. You have to make sure you pick up pollen - you should be able to see it on the swab - and be very careful when you transfer it to the female flower. The stigma is easily damaged. Apart from that, the process is usually best undertaken early in the morning when the flowers are freshly open. Keep trying!
Bf, I think you're right to sow earlier rather than later. There are myriad ways to keep seedlings happy till they're ready to plant out. If you have a sunny spot anywhere outside you can line the wee pots up in any sort of low-sided crate, wrap it in bubble wrap, and leave them out during the day. It works for me even when temps are down to single figures. The bubble wrap brings the temp up to a reasonable level but it's the bright natural light that does the trick.
Doesn't look good, Wakou, sorry. Don't compost them whatever you do. Bag them, dispose of them.
If the toms are ripening, the peppers won't be far behind.

I hadn't thought about how Standardization is the opposite of agency--I can see how you would see it that way. Standardization serves the greater good of the "economies"...but what about the individual child's life purpose? Aren't we all meant for more than just a means of increasing our country's wealth?
Another reason why we homeschool. We can freely explore the reasons why we each are here and find our own life purpose.
Love this, Eve. I am in the process of starting a Montessori charter school and my goal is to avoid the standardization of which Sir Ken Robinson speaks. I want my child, and the other children in the community, to have a LOVE for learning.ReplyDelete

- " The location is pretty close to the national park, but so far from central city. The atmosphere is rather horrific. Fortunately we came up with quite a lot of participants (total 7 persons), so if you book there only for one or two person, better you think twice!!! "

They are single coated, which is fine, and they can be used as a convertible lens, using only the rear cell, to get a longer lens. As always, though, doing this will result in a lens that doesn't perform quite as well.

Based on 948 Ratings for the 2003 - 2008 models.Review this car
By Lurker on Tuesday, April 14, 2009
overall rating 5 of 10rating details
"I have a 2006 Mazda 6 4 cylinder w/ cloth interior and cheapest version that they made that year. Here are the pros: 1) Good gas mileage; 2) Better than average styling for similarly priced vehicles of that year. The 06 Toyota, Honda, and Nissan look very unexciting. The Mazda 6 appears more sporty and muscular, even sporting the faux twin pipes; 3) The audio controls on the steering wheel are extremely handy and well-thought out; 4) The 4 cylinder is a peppy little engine w/ decent enough power for most. Cons: 1) Non-standard oil filter. The 4-cylinder engine requires use of a more expensive, non-standard oil filter that is a pain in the neck to change. It almost forces you to go to the dealership for every oil change where they can subsequently gouge you for $35 for the oil-change. They say that you can change the oil every 4-5k miles, but in my experience that is not a good idea. A friend of mine has the same engine in another make/model of vehicle and followed factory guidelines religiously and her engine seals were leaking by 60k miles. I think it is their way of getting you back in to purchase another vehicle sooner, but hey, that's just my opinion. 2) Shocks/struts are sub-par. I can feel mine wearing out and I only have 25k miles. I don't drive like a maniac and I do all I can to avoid potholes, etc., so there you have it. 3) The engine isn't mated very well to the transmission. The gearing is a bit short - I would prefer taller gearing so that the engine isn't revving so high at highway speeds. The increased engine noise adds yet more noise to an already noisy car, which leads me to number 4. 4) Lots of road noise at highway speeds which can make a trip more exhausting. I give this vehicle an average rating. You would probably do better with another brand of sedan if they weren't so ugly in that year. I wish I would have gone a step up and bought the Acura TL I was eyeing back in 06."

"I bought my NEW 2004 Mazda 6S the last week of Jan 2005. I got a great deal on it since it was a previous model year still on the lot. Paid ~$5700 below sticker. Overall, I really love this car, but I'll start with the cons just to lay them out. Cons: I have the 3.0L V6. It's more sluggish than I'd expect from a 6-cyl. The low end torque just isn't there. The gear ratios for 4th and 5th aren't where I'd like them either. I usually skip 4th because it's not much use. 5th should bring the RPMs down farther at highway speeds... cranking >3500 at 60mph. Pros: The 5-speed is really fun to drive. Like most Mazdas, the engine really likes higher RPM's. Great pickup with RPM's 2500+. Tight steering and nice engine tone really make the car feel like it has more under the hood than it really does. The Bose stereo is decent. Leather seats are really comfortable. The car has been really solid. No problems to speak of aside from a squeak in the clutch & brake pedal that was fixed under warranty (degraded brake fluid TSB). The engine compartment is laid out well so it's fairly easy to maintain. My Mazda6 is silver with tinted windows and sports package w/spoiler. Looks great. If you want a reasonably-priced, fun-to-drive, anti-Accord sedan with Zoom-Zoom and room for the family too, this is the car for you."

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 56,000overall rating 8 of 10rating details
Pros: "Good price, great acceleration, comfortable drive"
Cons: "Poor quality materials, AC weak, mileage so so"
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 7
"I bought this car new and it has always had a quirk that no one could fix. It hesitates and then lurches slightly on inclines. Other than that it has been a great car to drive and has given me no mechanical trouble until recently. I wish I could say the same about the interior and side mouldings. Little by little things fell off or broke. The header fell in the front, then in the back, the storage box on the dash (poor placement directly in the sun) one hinge broke and then the other. The digital clock went out, the side mouldings fell off one by one (the adhesive gave out). Then both window motors went out."

Cons: "gas mileage not as good as newer cars,"
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 8
"i have owned my mazda for almost 3 months an have had zero troubles with it, the only issue i have is the fact that most newer cars around this size an model get around 25 in town where i get only 21 but its still better than the 97 explorer i was driving lol. i purchased it with 89k miles an it currently has 102k on it, the gas mileage is great especailly for my 50 mile round trip commute to work 5 days a week, the traction control is a wonderful feature to have an just recently proved itself in the 6 inches of snow i had to drive through, I saw truck after truck getting pulled up hills an stuck in ditches but my mazda 6 just passed them all an kept trekking along just fine. would reccomend this car to anyone !!!!"

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Now Available on the iPad
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, the epic Star Wars role-playing game from 10 years ago, is now available on the iPad. Yes, the iPad. That said, you'll need to have at least an iPad 2 in your position, which really isn't a big surprise since my iPad 1 can barely handle a web page.
It would seem that this is the full, original game that first appeared on the Xbox (not the Xbox 360). IGN, which already reviewed it, albeit without much detail, gave it positive marks. However, they said that any diehard player would benefit from a physical joystick as the touchscreen controls can grow aggravating especially when trying to move your character.
So, if you don't have much to do this weekend, and would rather spend $10 on an RPG than an overpriced beer, this might be the game you're looking for. Yes, Star Wars: Knights for the Old Republic is available now in the iTunes store.

Urge Your Representative to Prioritize Humanitarian Foreign Assistance
Have you ever had a neighbor who was going through a difficult time. Maybe they were hungry or the kids were sick. Of course you want to help, so you grab your wallet and offer them a couple of bucks.
That's exactly what relief and development aid in the U.S. federal budget is meant to do. It helps people in the world's poorest communities – our neighbors – find their way out of poverty and into self-sufficient, healthy lives.
Each year U.S. international food aid programs reach approximately 60 million people, including millions of school children. Aid to small-scale farmers in developing countries is helping ensure food security for entire communities and preventing future famines. And the number of children dying from preventable and treatable conditions - like diarrheal disease and pneumonia - has been reduced from 11 million in 2008 to 7 million in 2012.
U.S. relief and development aid is saving lives, while creating a more stable world for everyone. And, contrary to what many people think, we spend less than 1 percent of the entire federal budget.
That's right – less than 1 percent.
By the end of this month, Members of Congress have to agree on a spending bill, which will include funding for aid programs. The Senate has proposed keeping the funding near existing levels, while the House would make significant cuts.
Your voice can make the difference.
Please tell your elected officials that America can find another way to balance the budget than on the backs of our neighbors living in desparate need. Tell them to support full funding for humanitarian and poverty-focused foreign assistance.

Revealed: foods that make you sad!
Tue, 22 Mar 2011 09:31:00 +1100By Deakin Research firstname.lastname@example.com
The Geelong Advertiser has reported that local scientists have unlocked one of the keys to lasting happiness - eating well.
The world-first study, which has received international accolades, shows a clear link between junk food and depression and demonstrates the impact a child's diet can have on its life-long mental health.
The Barwon Health study of women in the region was listed in the top 10 most important psychiatric studies in the world by a renowned medical website.
Deakin University research fellow Dr Felice Jacka led the Association of Diet With Depression and Anxiety study, which declared eating fried, fatty and processed foods such as pies, pizzas, white bread and chips caused depression and anxiety.
Showcase facts
- depression was caused by junk food itself and not from associated health problems from a poor diet such as obesity and cardiovascular disease.
- the research showed healthy eating among youngsters could prevent mental illnesses seen in the community

Myoko Vacation Packages
Tokyo, the national capital, is located 120 miles (193 kilometers) southeast of Myoko.
Myoko isn't the only place in this popular region worth exploring; visitors can also hit the road and discover the magic of the surrounding scenery, communities and cultural attractions. You may also wish to check out Yamanouchi, 20 miles (32 kilometers) to the northwest, and Itoigawa 20 miles (32 kilometers) to the east.
Nagano is around 25 miles (40 kilometers) from Myoko. This regional center offers a number of interesting visitor attractions, like Jigokudani Monkey Park, Shiga Kogen Ski Area and Nozawa Onsen Snow Resort. If you're still looking for things to do, it's worth investigating Joshinetsu Kogen National Park, Hakuba 47 Winter Sports Park and Chubu-Sangaku National Park before heading back to Myoko.
Allowing time to understand some words the local language often separates the smart travelers from the mere tourists. Knowing a range of basic words, such as "Isshoni odorimasenka?", which translates to "Would you like to dance with me?", could make your stay even more special. Or try "Benjo wa doko desu ka?" (Where's the toilet?).
As your sojourn winds to a close, you'll be sure to bid Myoko a sad "Sayōnara"

Air defense arms, words add Cold War chill to U.S.-Russia relations over Syria
MOSCOW The chief of Russia's state-controlled arms exporter said Friday that his company was shipping advanced defensive missile systems to Syria that could be used to shoot down airplanes or sink ships if the United States or other Western nations try to intervene to halt the country's spiral of violence.
"I would like to say these mechanisms are really a good means of defense, a reliable defense against attacks from the air or sea," Anatoly P. Isaykin, the director of company, Rosoboronexport, said in an interview Friday. "This is not a threat, but whoever is planning an attack should think about this."
His remarks come days after Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton raised diplomatic pressure on Russia, Syria's patron, by criticizing the Kremlin for sending attack helicopters to Damascus, and amid reports that Moscow was sending an amphibious landing vessel and a small company of marines to the Syrian port of Tartus, to provide security for military installations and infrastructure. While the weapons systems aren't considered cutting edge, the words and actions added to a Cold War chill that has been settling over relations between Washington and Moscow since President Vladimir Putin took power from his more accommodative predecessor, Dmitry Medvedev.
Throughout the Syrian crisis, Russia has insisted its arms sales to the isolated government of Bashar Assad are defensive in nature and weren't being used in the Syrian leader's vicious campaign to suppress the opposition.
Isaykin, a confidant of Putin, openly discussed the weapons being shipped to Syria: the Pantsyr-S1, a radar-guided missile and artillery system capable of hitting warplanes at altitudes well above those typically flown during bombing sorties, and up to 12 miles away; Buk-M2 anti-aircraft missiles, capable of striking airplanes at even higher altitudes, up to 82,000 feet, and at longer ranges; and land-based Bastion anti-ship missiles.
Also Friday, Maj. Gen. Robert Mood, head of the U.N. observer mission in Syria, presented a gloomy assessment of its prospects Friday, even as the government and its opposition accused each other of fomenting bloodshed around weekly Muslim prayer services. "Violence over the last 10 days has been intensifying willingly by both parties, with losses on both sides and significant risks to our observers," Mood, head of the unarmed observers, told a news conference in Damascus.

Looking for security holes with BackTrack
The BackTrack live distribution lets you act like an intruder to test your network's security.
Penetration testing is the art of breaking into your own network. Security consultants and system administrators use penetration testing todiscover holes before an intruder can find them. Unfortunately, intruders use a vast collection of powerful tools for sniffing, snooping, cracking, and hiding out on a target network. If you want to simulate an attack, you could always download this large collection of applications and temporarily install them on whatever system you plan to use for the attack. However, searching for the right tools and then installing them on your system can take up hours or even days of your time.

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina, June 16 /PRNewswire/ -- Most hospitals in Latin America reveal that there is a need for larger rooms in the radiology departments - a reason to consider the process of digitalization. As the radiologists are not very IT savvy, there arises a need to focus on awareness as a means to improve digital adoption, opening up significant growth opportunities for digital radiography (DR).

New analysis from Frost & Sullivan (http://www.medicalimaging.frost.com), Technology Trends and Business Opportunities in the Latin American X-Ray Market, finds that the market earned revenues of over $62.6 million in 2007 and estimates this to reach $97.5 million in 2012 due to the digital boom and increasing awareness.

There was also good news in the area of childhood malignancies. Although incidence increased by half a percent from 2004 to 2008, death rates since 1975 have decreased from 4.9 per 100,000 children to 2.2 per 100,000 in 2008. The five-year survival rate is now 83 percent, up dramatically from 58 percent in the mid-1970s, the report found.
Still, one in four deaths in the United States each year is due to cancer and, in 2012, some 1.6 million new cancers will be diagnosed and almost 600,000 people will die from the disease.
Racial and ethnic disparities remain, with black men and women more likely to get cancer and more likely to die from it.
And there have been disconcerting increases in cancers of the pancreas, liver, thyroid and kidney as well as melanoma, esophageal adenocarcinoma and some oropharyngeal cancers, the last related to infection with human papillomavirus (HPV).
"These are worrisome trends which require further study and intervention," said Seiden.
Experts don't really know the reasons behind these increases but some, such as cancers of the kidney and pancreas, may be related to the growing obesity epidemic, said Jemal.
The rise in liver tumors could well be due to hepatitis C infections or intravenous drug use in the 1960s and '70s, he added.
Much additional progress is easily within reach, said Seiden.
"There's still a lot of low-lying fruit. Still, only half our population is getting screened by colonoscopy, 20 percent smoke cigarettes. Mammography, Pap screening, all of those have room for an upside as do vaccinations for things like HPV and hepatitis," he said. "There is still plenty of incremental improvement in earlier diagnosis, in cancer prevention and, of course, in extending lives through better cancer therapies."

SAN DIEGO (AP) Ś Domonic Brown made the most of the only fastball he saw all night from Jason Marquis.
Brown hit his 20th home run and tied a career high with four RBIs, and the Philadelphia Phillies beat the San Diego Padres 6-2 Tuesday night.
ōI was looking changeup,ö said Brown, ōIt was the only fastball I had seen from him in three at-bats. So I was just trying hit something in the middle the other way and I just reacted to the ball.
ōI just wanted to keep the swing short and quick and made that adjustment.ö
Marquis (9-3), who had won eight straight decisions over his last 11 starts, went 4 1-3 innings, giving up six runs on six hits, walking five and striking out four to take the loss.
ōIt was a fastball, up and out over the plate,ö Marquis said of the pitch Brown hit out. ōItÆs 2-0 Ś a hitterÆs count Ś and he put the barrel on the ball.ö
He allowed back-to-back walks on eight pitches to Ryan Howard and Brown in the fifth inning, which led to MarquisÆ exit from the game and contributed to three more runs by the Phillies, who took their 6-2 lead.
Philadelphia parlayed singles by Jimmy Rollins and Chase Utley along with three walks, a wild pitch and a sacrifice fly by John Mayberry Jr. for the three runs.
Marquis, who hadnÆt lost a game since April 22 against Milwaukee, leads the majors in walks with 53. He has had four or more walks in 11 of his 16 starts.
The Padres have lost five of eight since a season-high seven-game win streak.
Kyle Kendrick (7-4) went eight innings for Philadelphia, allowing two runs on seven hits with six strikeouts and no walks to pick up the victory.
ōItÆs always nice to pitch eight innings,ö said Kendrick. ōThat was a good win for us. I was throwing my cutter a lot more than usual tonight. That home run by Brown was big particularly after we gave up two and to come back and take the lead.ö
Brown, who walked with the bases-loaded in the fifth to drive in a run, had hit a three-run homer off Marquis in the third for a 3-2 lead.
Rollins walked to lead off the third and stole second. He went to third on a one-out single by Michael Young.
Marquis struck out Howard, but Brown hit a 2-0 pitch 411 feet into the right-center field stands. He is second in the NL in homers, one behind Carlos Gonzalez. It was his first homer since June 8, a span of 56 at-bats. He has 54 RBIs.
The Padres had taken a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the second. Kyle Blanks singled to right and Yasmani Grandal doubled to left. Alexi AmaristaÆs infield grounder to second scored Blanks, and Pedro CiriacoÆs single to left scored Grandal.
The Padres threatened in the ninth on GrandalÆs single and CiriacoÆs third hit of the game, a double. But reliever Antonio Bastardo struck out Logan Forsythe for the final out.
NOTES: Padres LHP Robbie Erlin (1-0, 4.15 ERA) will be called up from Triple-A Tucson on Wednesday and will make his second major league start against Philadelphia. ōWe like we saw when he beat the Blue Jays. HeÆs getting to a point where heÆs about to break through,ö said Padres manager Bud Black. LHP Cole Hamels (2-11, 4.50 ERA) will pitch for the Phillies in the final game of the series. . Padres 2B Jedd Gyro, on the DL with a right groin strain, flew to San Antonio on Tuesday and will play with the Padres Double-A team Wednesday and Thursday. If all goes well, according to Black, Gyorko would be activated and would join the team Friday in Miami ..Padres 3B Chase Headley batted cleanup Tuesday for the second straight day. However, Black said he will likely not stay there even if he heats up. ōWe were hoping a different look would give him a different perspective on the game. I donÆt think it had anything to do with him getting two hits (on Monday).ö. Phillies 1B Ryan Howard returned to the starting lineup after sitting out MondayÆs game with a sore left knee. Howard was batting .432 over his last 12 games with three home runs and 11 RBIs. . Phillies RHP Carlos Zambrano is scheduled to make another start at Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Friday before the club makes a decision whether to call him up. Zambrano, who last pitched in the majors for the Miami Marlins in 2012, is 1-0 in three starts with Lehigh Valley with a 3.18 ERA, 17 strikeouts and nine walks in 16 innings.

Moment in PSL: Sandy Alderson explains how watching camp is like watching the tide
Matthew Cerrone, Lead Writer
Sandy Alderson strides quietly through camp, always with a hat down low just above his eyes, which are always covered in sunglasses.
He slides through the gate, on to the field and up on the back of the cage. He'll cross his arms, lean on his wrist and most likely talk with no one. Then, he'll drift off, doing the same on another field…
I was able to stop and talk with him a bit one recent afternoon, while he leaned on a sideline fence observing his outfielders take ground balls off an old-timer's bat.
He told me, when he's watching, he's just trying to get a sense of where players are in their spring. He's not studying, making calculations or judgements. Instead, he described it to me like watching the surf…
It's like when you go to the ocean, he told me, and you're not yet sure if it's high or low tide.
"You need a minute, just to watch and stare, and eventually you begin to get a sense of whether the tide is going in or out," he explained.
His goal, when watching an outfielder come up with a throw, or a prospect throw a bullpen session, or a hitter taking batting practice, is to get a feel for where they are, good or bad, ahead or behind schedule, at that particular time in camp, so he can weigh it all against itself to determine if the team's tide is coming in or going out.

BizTalk Server 2004 and Web Services
from http://blogs.dotmark.net/enf/archive/2005/11/02/4817.aspx
Service-oriented architecture (SOA) is the mantra of current application development, and Web services are one of the key enabling technologies behind SOA. Web services, based on the widely used and industry-standard SOAP protocol, are becoming increasingly ubiquitous.
Past waves of application development have meant monolithic applications, created by teams of developers who worked in isolation with resources under their immediate control. Exchanging information between enterprises or divisions usually meant brittle hard-wired connections that required collaboration between both sides of the exchange. Service-oriented architectures break down monolithic applications into a suite of services, where elements of functionality are implemented in a modular fashion, and often are exposed as Web services.

I love this chili! It is great for the fall season. I never liked cumin until I made this dish.flag if inappropriate
I was a little nervous while cooking this - there isn't much color to this dish. However, both my husband and I really liked the flavor. The only change that I made was to increase the crushed red pepper to give it a little more zing.flag if inappropriate
I made this dish for homecoming and it was wonderful. I added 1/2 tsp. nutmeg and had to use white navy beans. I also exchanged the whipping cream for half and half. I made it the day before then heated it on low in my crock pot. Family loved it!! Served with texas toast!flag if inappropriate
Easy and terrific but a bit too spicy for my eight year old. I omitted the aniseed and the cream and increased the garlic. I let it simmer a little longer than indicated and it was very "creamy" without the cream. This will be a "regular".flag if inappropriate
Just made this for Father's Day lunch and it was great! I doubled the recipe and it turned out really well. We are looking forward to leftovers already!flag if inappropriate
This was very easy to make and it tasted great. I used half and half instead of whipping cream and left out the aniseed. I also used small white beans insted of white kidney beans because they seemed more appealing to me. Lastly, I used chicken breasts and next time I will cut it into smaller pieces. This was a big hit in my house. Even my six year old loved it. I will definitely make this again and again!flag if inappropriate
I have fixed this dish for family and friends and have gotten great feedback on it (pun intended). I have doubled it. I also substituted chicken breast for the thigh, I used 1/2c beer with 1/2c chicken broth and I also used fat free half and half instead of the cream. It really is a nice winter's meal for casual entertaining.flag if inappropriate
This whipped up in no time and was excellent. Don't omit the bean juice. My mom, who doesn't like spicy food, enjoyed this. So did my husband, who says "bring on the spice." Go figure. I say, YUM.flag if inappropriate
This was a great change from regular run of the mill chili. I had a big group over so I doubled the receipe and made a few adjustment. I omitted the cream and used chicken broth and I used dry beans (that I had presoaked). I also used chicken breasts instead of thighs thus reducing the fat content. Instead of chopping the chicken into chunks I stripped it into small pieces with helped to disperse the chicken flavor throughout the chili.. After cooking it, I put the chili in a crock pot on low so that my guest could serve themselves.. I served it with cornbread.. I highly recommend this chili particularly on those cold fall or winter days.flag if inappropriate
This is a versitile recipe - you can make it as spicy as you want. It is a big hit with everyone that has tried it.flag if inappropriate
