19 Pictures of Children's Adorable First ArtworkDiana Stone
First drawings. There isn't anything quite like the feeling of your child showing you a piece of paper with "It's a…" and you suddenly realize that's exactly what it is. A wonderfully proud moment. We usually share these immediately with friends and family, but today I wanted to share with them with all of you – from other parents you may or may not know on social media.
These made me laugh and cry, each had a story behind them. What touched me the most was how every one remembered what their child drew and why – and was so proud of it they took a picture and/or saved it. Little faces, first animals, and moments children experienced loss – they're all here.
Thank you to each of you who sent these to their kids first artwork. It was an honor to be able to put these on Babble Kid for all to see and enjoy too.

MANHATTAN (FROM FHDC, 13 News) -- The brand new Flint Hills Discovery Center celebrates one month Monday since its opening, but on Sunday, had already welcomed its 10,000th visitor.
5-year old Wamego resident, A.J. Mumford crossed the front entry as the lucky guest. The family group was surprised to be greeted by balloons and a giant Flint Hills prize package at the Visitors Services Desk upon entry. A.J. was most excited of all about his big day at the Flint Hills Discovery Center as he had just celebrated his 5th birthday on Saturday.
Young Mr. Mumford shared his excitement about being the 10,000th visitor as he posed for a photo before the Flint Hills Discovery Center's Wall of Honor with his family members by his side. As the 10,000th visitor, A.J. was greeted with balloons and a Flint Hills prize package including goods for the whole family to enjoy. The gift basket included Flint Hills Discovery Center merchandise, Symphony in the Flint Hills tickets and a gift certificate to Old Chicago in Manhattan. Members of the family reside locally in Manhattan, Wamego and Topeka.
A.J. was joined by many family members including the Mumford and Walsh families of Wamego, the Barngrover family of Manhattan/ Fort Riley, and the Moody family of Topeka. The winning group also posed in front of the Flint Hills Discovery Center's Pioneer Bluffs exhibit with smiles on their faces. As they explored the permanent exhibit gallery that they shared they could not wait to finish exploring all that the Flint Hills Discovery Center had to offer.

Fall Course: First-Year Seminar
All Hope College students enroll in a First-Year Seminar (FYS) during the fall semester of their freshman year. The purpose of FYS is to introduce students to college-level ways of learning, to engage with primary texts in a discussion format, and to offer support as students transition into college. Phelps Scholars take a team taught FYS called Culture, Control and Community that emphasizes cross-cultural understanding and completes the college's requirement for International Global Learning. In an effort to complement the learning taking place in class, Phelps Scholars are required to attend a minimum of one of the field trips during first semester.
Community Placements
In conjunction with the FYS course, each Phelps Scholar spends 18 hours throughout the first semester serving in a local organization dedicated to creating community in the central city of Holland. Though not required, many students choose to continue volunteering at the same placement site throughout second semester.
Research Projects
Phelps Scholars work in groups of three to research a topic related to culture, control or community with the purpose of seeking a global understanding of the issue selected. The students then give poster presentations at a campus event at the end of the term, and the top five are selected to present at the college's Celebration of Undergraduate Research in the spring.
Hope students benefit from academic advising that begins as early as Orientation weekend and then continues throughout their career until graduation. First-year students are advised by their FYS professor and for Phelps Scholars, that means one of the five faculty members who team teach FYS. We take advising very seriously and spend a great deal of time talking with students about how to succeed in college and in life.
Meeting with students outside of class offers a prime opportunity for development. This may include collaboration and discussion about current progress, goals and strategies for success in college and beyond. Conversations are intentional and may explore questions such as "What is your present situation?", "What are your possible choices?" and "What is the likely outcome of each choice?" Students are then encouraged and challenged to move forward by the choices to which they commit while still considering the connections between the here and now and their futures. Advising is a team effort!
— Yolanda Vega, Director, Phelps Scholars Program
Spring Semester Course
Phelps Scholars also register for one of two additional courses in the spring semester of their freshman year: Encounter with Cultures or Introduction to American Ethnic Studies. These courses continue to promote a shared vocabulary and understanding as it relates to issues of cultural diversity, with a focus on contemporary issues of race and culture in the United States. Both of these courses complete Hope's requirement for Global Learning in the United States.

Authenticating the Internet from end-to-end.
DNSSEC protects the internet community from forged DNS data by using public key cryptography to digitally sign authoritative zone data. DNSSEC validation assures users that the data originated from the stated source and that it was not modified in transit. DNSSEC can also prove that a domain name does not exist.
Although DNSSEC enhances DNS security, it is not a comprehensive solution. It does not protect against distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks, ensure confidentiality of data exchanges, encrypt website data or prevent IP address spoofing and phishing. Other layers of protection, such as DDoS mitigation, security intelligence, Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption and site validation in addition to two-factor authentication, are also critical to making the Internet more secure. These mechanisms should be used in conjunction with DNSSEC.
DNSSEC affects every component within the internet infrastructure ecosystem. Its effective deployment requires the involvement of many stakeholders within the internet community. Registries, registrars, domain name registrants, hardware and software vendors, ISPs, government entities and ordinary internet users all have roles to play to ensure success and bring vital improvements to Internet security. DNSSEC benefits:
In DNSSEC, each zone has a public/private key pair. The zone's public key is published using DNS, while the zone's private key is kept safe and ideally stored offline. A zone's private key signs individual DNS data in that zone, creating digital signatures that are also published via DNS. DNSSEC uses a rigid trust model and this chain of trust flows from parent zone to child zone. Higher-level (parent) zones sign - or vouch for - the public keys of lower-level (child) zones. The authoritative name servers for these zones may be managed by registrars, ISPs, web hosting companies, or website operators (registrants) themselves.
When an end user wants to access a website, a stub resolver within the user's operating system requests the domain name record from a recursive name server, located at an ISP. After the server requests this record, it also requests the DNSSEC key associated with the zone. This key allows the server to verify that the information it receives is identical to the record on the authoritative name server.
If the recursive name server determines that the address record has been sent by the authoritative name server and has not been altered in transit, it resolves the domain name and the user can access the site. This process is called validation. If the address record has been modified or is not from the stated source, the recursive name server does not allow the user to reach the fraudulent address. DNSSEC can also prove that a domain name does not exist.
There are many pieces in the overall puzzle of internet security. DNSSEC may mitigate the security concerns generated by man-in-the-middle attacks and cache poisoning, but it is not an overall security solution. DNSSEC does not solve many of the most common threats to internet security, like spoofing or phishing. For this reason, other layers of protection, such as SSL certificates and two-factor authentication, are critical to making the Internet secure for everyone.
The internet community has not yet devised a standardised system for informing users of an attack. One possible solution is to develop "DNSSEC-aware" browsers that notify users that they have been routed to an authenticated destination.
In July 2010, Verisign—working with the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) and the U.S. Department of Commerce (DoC)—completed deployment of DNSSEC in the root zone (the starting point of the DNS hierarchy). Verisign also enabled DNSSEC on .edu in July 2010 in collaboration with EDUCAUSE and the DoC on .net in December 2010 in addition to .com in March 2011.
Our DNSSEC deployment strategy started with the smaller zones first in order to evaluate each deployment for lessons learned before moving to the next zone. Since the .com zone is the largest, we signed it last. We wanted to gain as much experience as possible before tackling the domain that handles so much of the world's internet-based commerce and communications.
The successful deployment of DNSSEC has far-reaching benefits for the global Internet community by increasing trust for a multitude of Internet activities, including eCommerce, online banking, e-mail, VoIP and online software distribution. However, the entire internet community shares the responsibility for making DNSSEC successful. Success requires the active, coordinated participation of registries, registrars, registrants, hosting companies, software developers, hardware vendors, government and internet technologists and coalitions.
The internet root zone, top-level domains (TLDs) such as .gov, .org, .museum and a number of country code TLDs (ccTLDs), have signed the zones they manage. Other TLDs such as .edu, .net and .com implemented DNSSEC in 2010 and 2011. These TLDs have started accepting second-level DNSSEC-signed domain names. Large ISPs such as Comcast activated validation on the recursive name servers that answer user queries and some registrars have included DNSSEC implementation on their roadmaps. In addition, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) has opened applications for new TLDs and it is likely that plans for DNSSEC implementation will be a requirement for acceptance of a new TLD request.
Although both DNSSEC and SSL rely on public key cryptography, they each perform very different functions that complement, rather than replace, one another.
In a very simplistic model, DNSSEC deals with "where" and SSL deals with "who" and "how."
When woven together, DNSSEC and SSL increase security and trust on the Internet: Users can reliably ascertain where they are going, who they are interacting with and how confidential their interactions are.
In the U.S., the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) memo 08-23 mandated that DNSSEC be deployed in the top level .gov domain by January 2009 and that U.S. federal agencies deploy DNSSEC on external sites by December 2009. The .gov registry was signed in early 2009. The U.S. Defense Information Systems Agency intends to meet OMB DNSSEC requirements in the .mil domain as well. The U.S. Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) regulations called for agencies to sign their intranet zones with DNSSEC by the middle of 2010. Currently, there are no requirements for public website operators to secure their domain with DNSSEC.

Below you will find the high resolution bike pictures for BMW Motorrad Concept 6. You may use the bike pictures for any of the following standard screen resolutions:
1600x1200 | 1400x1050 | 1280x1024 | 1280x960 | 1152x864 | 1024x768 (iPad) | 800x600 Full Car Details
BMW Motorrad Concept 6
BMW has just introduced their latest contraption, 'the fascination, supremacy and riding comfort with six cylinders'. Dubbed Concept 6, BMW's machine features a straight-six production engine, which is about 100 mm slimmer than all its predecessors and only a bit wider than a large-capacity straight-four with conventional technology.The power output of the BMW Concept 6 is almost the same as the company's 1.3-litre straight-four engines, but the torque is significantly higher matching the one from 1.6 liter engines. This means the BMW Concept 6 outputs 130 Nm or 96 lb-ft of torque from just 2,000 rpm. The bike can rev up to 9,000 rpm.

I have found that my todo lists work great for three cases:
- Simple things that have a very specific due date (e.g. call Chris at 3pm, pay credit card bill by January 15, etc.)
- Things I would like to do but don't have to be done (e.g. organize the closet) and don't have a due date
- Short, "continuous" tasks (e.g. scan some of the pages in my filing cabinet) - I refer to this list when I have a few minutes free
The one type of task I'm having a problem with is something that has a definite due date but is more of a "project" - something that will take, say 6-8 hours. If I set the due date to the actual due date, then I risk being surprised by it and not having time. But if I set it earlier than that, I'll just continually reschedule it. One suggestion may be to break it up into small items and stagger their due dates, but I'll just keep postponing them, thinking that I want to do it all at once.
Say, for example - doing your taxes. You wouldn't put a due date of the deadline, because if you started working on them on that day, you wouldn't have enough time to complete them. So what do you do? Just pick an arbitrary earlier day and either complete it then or hope that the reminder will keep it on your mind so you do give yourself enough time to get done by the real deadline?

Already, gas demand in road transport grew tenfold between 2000 and 2010, but cheap gas in the US as a result of the boom in production of shale gas, and concerns over air pollution and oil dependency in China, could help it develop into a more mainstream fuel, the IEA said.

LONDON -- Natural gas is set to emerge as a significant new
transportation fuel over the next five years, raising the
prospect of a challenge to oil's dominance in the sector, the
International Energy Agency said Thursday.
Already, gas demand in road transport grew tenfold between
2000 and 2010, but cheap gas in the US as a result of the boom
in production of shale gas, and concerns over air pollution and
oil dependency in China, could help it develop into a more
mainstream fuel, the IEA said.
In its five-year gas outlook, the Paris-based energy
watchdog said it expects natural gas use in road and maritime
transportation to rise to 98 billion cubic meters by 2018,
covering around 10% of incremental energy needs in the
transport sector. According to the IEA, this shift will do more
to reduce the medium-term growth in oil demand than both biofuels and electric cars
"Gas is already a major fuel in power generation, but the
next five years will also see it emerging as a significant
transportation fuel, driven by abundant supplies as well as
concerns about oil dependency and air pollution," said Maria
van der Hoeven, the IEA's executive director.
Further down the line, the IEA said gas had significant
potential for use in heavy-duty transport such as freight and
rail, though such developments are unlikely over the next five
Despite this new demand factor, the IEA also highlighted
challenges facing gas in all major regions, including the
resilience of coal in North America, weak demand in Europe and production difficulties
in the Middle East and Africa.
Although the agency still sees the coming five years as a
"Golden Age" of gas, its latest medium-term forecast reduces
the five-year demand projection by 75 billion cubic
meters compared with its 2012 outlook.
Nonetheless, world natural gas demand is expected to rise by
15.6% over the next five years to reach 3.962 trillion cubic
meters, an increase from today's level that's equivalent to the
current gas production in the Middle East.
China is to remain the main driver of demand, accounting for
30% of global growth over the next five years. The country is
expected to become the world's fourth-largest gas producer, but
will still absorb a third of the expected increase in liquefied
natural gas supply and all of the increase in output from
Central Asia, the IEA said.
The US is expected to continue to dominate supply growth,
accounting for more than a fifth of the increase in global gas
production as it continues to exploit its reserves of shale
US production has surged over the past several years, thanks
to a technique known as hydraulic fracturing which has enabled
companies to extract natural gas trapped in shale rock
formations. The success enjoyed by the US has increased global
focus on unconventional gas, however the IEA said no major
development is expected to take place outside of North America
and possibly China before 2018.
Nonetheless, persistent interest in shale gas and other
unconventional gas resources could prepare the ground for
unconventional production to take off after 2020, the IEA
This story has been updated to correct the nature of the
rise in gas consumption in the third paragraph. The 98 billion
cubic meter consumption level for natural gas given by the IEA
included maritime transport as well as road transport.

the new scenary of the leading fuels shows the natural gas (NG) as an important fuel wich requiere new transport challenges, the new fuels are now affecting the transportation in South America so the LNG is today growing in countries like Brazil which is also supply by producers like Bolivia, so the international markets will be affected in what is the pipeline transport develpmemt.

If research of Solar Plane is successful then whole picture will change. Everything depends on how fast research is done.

This artcle is very interesting. The question will be how gas will be used: gaseous, liquified or converted into gasoline or diesel. Last alternatives have the chance to use coomon cars and a development of new cars with gas motor will be not necessary.

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

A friend has asked me to design a T-shirt for him, and he wants it to read: eat, sleep, drift (as in car drifting) So far I have this: 食べる 睡眠 漂. I'm not sure if it's right as I am an English speaker with no experience of Japanese. Ideally I would like a Kanji AND Katakana translation. As you will probably understand I would like him to be pleased with his shirt and not looking a fool with something grammatically incorrect or insulting printed on it!

That phrase as a whole already has an established translation. It is: 食う寝る遊ぶ "eat, sleep, play" or maybe sticking to your words, more literally, 食う寝るドリフト "eat, sleep, drift (the car)". You cannot write it entirely in kanji. It is impossible. I have no idea what you mean by katakana translation. Do you just want the same thing to be written in katakana? Then, クウネルアソブ. But I think such idea is already stepping into "looking a fool".
Check out this car ad http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqyqYrZb2I4, they say くうねるあそぶ. You don't want to use the words 食べる for eat, nor 漂 for drift. 食べる just seems too straight to me. It's hard to explain, but I don't think it has the same semantic profile as the English translation "eat"; it might be too literal or too semantically simple. くう has a more lively, connotative vibe to it and is probably the better choice as a more stylized word. As for 漂, I haven't much experience with it, but I don't think it means "drift" in the sense of "car drift across pavement". 漂 is more "drift about the ocean" or "drift through midair". Whereas car drift is tractionless linear movement across some surface, the car never floats up off the pavement into the air nor begins to exhibit Brownian movement. Or at least that never happens on purpose. So, I think 漂 is the wrong sense of the English word "drift". Interestingly enough: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drifting_%28motorsport%29#Japanese_adaptation.
Anyways, chances are if you just look in a dictionary for translations the result will be totally underwhelming and won't have that terse aphoristic effect you're aiming for. You're best of asking someone. I'd go with what Sawa had to say but make it all kana, so くうねるあそぶ. Or maybe "食寝DRIFT".

4) In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.
It seems odd that Paul would refer to Satan as "...the god of this world". Is verse 4 in reference to God?

I am a student studying the last semester of a 2-year Master's course. My performance in the last three semesters has been according to my expectations. In my last winter break, I had spent almost all the time on research. Three months into the semester, I find myself simply unable to study, especially outside the classroom. Nothing seems to motivate me to study. With around one month left for the examinations, I know this could create a huge problem, but there seems to be nothing I can do. Is there anything I can do to improve my situation?
Take a break.. i guess u need to switch your brain to something u enjoy and haven't done for sometime.. some activity.. but it should not consume more than two-three days. stay away from your studies for this period. I feel You will be refreshed enough to be motivated and be able to complete your semester.
And try to spend some time with anyone you know who has successfully finished the course or a similar one. hope it will inspire you to achieve what you want, (as you will be able to see yourself in a similar position in future).
Then as Rory said, Be persistent!!
All the best!!
First, don't be hard on yourself. It kinda seems like that is what you are doing. What you are experiencing is natural. Commonly know as "senioritis". I'm one year into my second Master's and I'm already experiencing it.
My advice, remind yourself why you are getting this degree. Remind yourself of all the energy and effort you have spent getting this far. There is no easy fix, but re-aligning yourself with your goals will be helpful.
If you find yourself avoiding assignments, try to break them up into smaller pieces. Instead of saying "I'm going to 3 hours completing this assignment tonight", which may be daunting and cause you to become even less motivated, promise yourself that you will at least do something related to that assignment for only 20 minutes. Like read a chapter. Reaearch the topic. Brainstorm your report, then walk away. Etc. This will make it seem less daunting and actually will become a motivator once you see yourself make progress.
Also, check out the Pomodoro Technique. Just Google it if you never heard of it. I find this very helpful when I have an important task to tackle but my motivation is lacking.
Your brain is already beginning to wind down as you see the end in sight. This is actually very common, people who are 'Finishers' are much rarer than 'Deliverers', and the generally accepted view is that there isn't a magic bullet here... You just need to force your way through.
With one month left, forget motivation and just use persistence. Plan how much study you will build in to each day, and stick to it. No going out, no partying etc., in fact use the promise of a party as a reward for afterwards.
Create a time budget that has all your required topics planned in, and stick to it. Plan frequent breaks, perhaps ten minutes every hour, in order to rest.
There are many questions here on how to work without motivation.
I'm writing here a few tips that can help you with motivation.
This might not apply to your situation, but I thought I would post it in case other students would find this useful.
For some this could be a rather difficult situation. I would recommend visiting the counselling services office (most universities have one). Some of them will provide anxiety or stress management tips. Some are run by students so will provide a safe environment for sharing.
Many students face this (actually, many professionals also have to deal with this). So you are definitely not alone.

K-12 and Cloud considerations
By user736511 on Nov 29, 2012
Much like every other Public Sector organization, school districts in the US and Canada are under tremendous pressure to deliver consistent and modern services while operating with reduced budgets, IT personnel shortages, and staff attrition. Electronic/remote learning and the need for immediate access to resources such as grades, calendars, curricula etc. are straining IT environments that were already burdened with meeting privacy requirements imposed by both regulators and parents/students. One area viewed as a solution to at least some of the challenges is the use of "Cloud" in education. Although the concept of "Cloud" is nothing new in education with many providers supplying educational material over the web, school districts defer previously-in-house-hosted services to established commercial vendors to accommodate document sharing, app hosting, and even e-mail. Doing so, however, does not reduce an important risk, that of privacy. As always, Cloud implementations are viewed in a skeptical manner because of the perceived reduction in sensitive data management and protection thereof, although with a careful approach and the right tooling, the benefits realized by Clouds can expand to security and privacy.
Oracle's comprehensive approach to data privacy and identity management ensures that the necessary tools are available to support regulations, operational efficiencies and strong security regardless of where the sensitive data is stored - on premise or a Cloud. Common management tools, role-based access controls, access policy management and engineered systems provided by Oracle can be the foundational pieces on which school districts can build their Cloud implementations without having to worry about security itself. Their biggest challenge, and it is a positive one, is how to best take advantage of Oracle's DB Security and IDM functionality to reduce operational costs while enabling modern applications and data delivery to those who needs access to it.

I am starting to read a book called "Horse-Sense Nutrition" that deals with working toward better health and a weight loss in the bargain.
The preface of the book starts with "The best thing that has come along since sliced bread is the idea of not eating it."
Easier said than done, especially if the bread is homemade and hot from the oven, with a huge slathering of butter melting into it.
Article Photos
NUTRITION EDUCATION — The book "Horse-Sense Nutrition" is meant to be a fun companion to transform the reader into building muscle, boosting metabolism and burning fat. The lessons were designed to make the reader think, as they begin exercising their brain before pursuing more challenging physical exercise. It notes that the majority of people have been poorly educated about nutrition but ultimately are responsible for their own state of well being. It is never too late for self-correction as long as one possesses the first prerequisite for reversing any condition, to add more life to your years and more years to your life.
-- Esther McCoy
The book explains that weight loss happens miraculously by the body redesigning itself to lean composition as it exchanges fatness for fitness.
We eat to fulfill the body's primal need for energy and nutrients. All other eating is recreational and enjoyable but potentially detrimental if above the caloric need for the day.
Whether you want to add more life to your years or more years to your life, you can attain superior health and a lean body as one and the same goal, it was noted in the book.
Time is the essence of reality - this must be realized. Lasting results in weight loss take time, and the most important behavior to cultivate in order to achieve permanent fat loss is patience. In a momentary fit of frustration and binge eating, do not erase all the hard work by quitting. Start anew the next day.
It is long realized that before becoming overweight, you bypassed multiple opportunities for weight gain prevention, the book notes.
If this fact has entered your mind, realize that now is the time to get started. And the new year is a good time to do it.
Now for a few rules taken from the "Horse Sense Nutrition" book:
Homemade dressings are easy and quick to whip up and you save money and will find them far superior to the commercial versions.
Salads can be eaten in almost unlimited quantity. Volume plus variety are high satiety factors for the mouth, stomach and brain.
Here are some recipes for salad dressing with less than 35 calories per tablespoon of dressing. They are from Dawn Hall's low-fat cookbook, "Busy People's Low Fat Recipes."
Buttermilk Ranch Salad Dressing
1 envelope fat-free Hidden Valley original ranch dip mix, dry
1 cup fat-free sour cream
1 cup low-fat buttermilk
Mix all ingredients until well blended. Serve chilled. This has 27 calories per tablespoon and can be used on salads or as a dip with fresh vegetables. Makes 16 servings of 2 tablespoons.
Sweet and Sour Bacon Salad Dressing
1/2 cup Equal Spoonful
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup skim milk
2/3 cup fat-free sour cream
Half of a 3-ounce jar real bacon bits
With a whisk, stir together all ingredients until well blended. Keep chilled until ready to serve. This is 33 calories per tablespoon and makes 12 servings of 2 tablespoons each.
The book lists different veggies to make into a salad, including dandelion greens and flowers; beets, carrots, cabbage, mushrooms, radishes, peppers, fennel, asparagus, peas and squash. Nuts that can be included include almonds, beechnuts, Brazil nuts, cashews, pecans and walnuts.
Fruits that blend well with salad greens are apples, Asian pear, avocado, cucumber, olives, raisins and tomatoes. Chickpeas, lentils, rice, wild rice, couscous and pumpkin or sunflower seeds add contrast to a salad. Then there are the cooked meats that include canned tuna, chicken, hard-boiled eggs, beef, and shellfish such as crab, lobster, scallops and shrimp.
Anyone could find a pleasing combination from this assortment, even died-in-the-wool salad haters.
The book has a small section on desserts, and sweet potato pie is one that brings a vegetable into the dessert.
The book does not list the calorie count, and I am assuming that the pie will make eight servings.
I Yam What I Yam Sweet Potato Pie
9-inch pie crust
3 pounds sweet potatoes, the bright orange kind
4 tablespoons butter
1/2 to 3/4 cup sugar, to taste - remember the less sugar, the less calories
1 egg
1/2 cup fat-free evaporated skim milk
1 teaspoon vanilla, cinnamon or orange or lemon rind
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
Preheat oven to 425 degrees and bake 3 pounds of sweet potatoes or yams for about 25 minutes. Then stab the skins with a fork and continue baking at 350 degrees for 25 minutes or until tender.
Scoop hot flesh from sweet potatoes into a large mixing bowl. Add butter, sugar, egg and flavorings, except nutmeg. Beat well with a mixer or by hand for 2 minutes. Add evaporated milk and nutmeg. Stir well. Pour into the pie shell. Bake at 350 degrees until pie crust is beautifully brown but not burnt. Serve at room temperature.
What better way to get vegetables into the diet than by combining them into a steaming hot bowl of soup on a cold wintry day.
This is from the "Busy People's Low Fat Recipes Cookbook." This makes 16 cups and is only 60 calories per 1 cup serving.
World's Easiest
Vegetable Soup
46-ounce can V-8 vegetable juice
4 cups fat-free no salt-added beef broth, or made from beef boullion
Four 15.25-ounce cans mixed vegetables, drained
1 teaspoon salad seasoning spices
Bring all ingredients to a boil over high heat in a large, nonstick soup pan. If desired mash soup in the pot for a few minutes by hand with a potato masher to make soup a little thicker.
Cook on the stove for 30 to 45 minutes or put into a crockpot and cook on low for 4 hours or on high for 2 hours.
Note: Cutting 2 pounds of eye of round into bite-size pieces and adding at the beginning of recipe in the crockpot will yield 20 cups with 108 calories per cup.
There is no need to pre-cook the meat. It will cook while it is boiling.
This is a recipe that I want to try soon as we love potato soup. It can be made with bacon bits or small squares of ham.
Cream of Potato Soup
1/4 cup flour
1 pint fat-free half and half
2 cups skim milk
1 pound fat-free hash browns
1/2 cup frozen or fresh chopped onion
3-ounce jar real bacon bits or 1/4 pound chopped smoked ham
1/2 teaspoon dried dill weed
1 tablespoon Butter Buds Sprinkles, which Dawn Hall said is in the spice or diet section. If not, add a tablespoon of low-fat margarine.
In a large, nonstick Dutch oven or soup pot, with a whisk, briskly stir flour into half and half and skim milk. Once flour is completely dissolved, add remaining ingredients and cook over medium-high, stirring frequently.
Once boiling, continue to cook and stir at full boil for 5 to 6 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Remove from heat. If desired, season with lite salt and pepper. Makes five 1-cup servings with the bacon bit version being 263 calories and the ham being 240 calories.
This chowder is a flavorful combination of both chili and tacos, There are kidney beans, canned corn and refried beans in a ground turkey soup base.
Taco Chowder
1 pound ground turkey breast
1.25-ounce packet taco seasoning
28-ounce can no-salt added diced tomatoes, do not drain
Two 16-ounce cans fat-free refried beans
14.5-ounce can fat-free, no salt added beef broth
15-ounce can light red kidney beans, do not drain
15.25-ounce can whole kernel sweet corn, do not drain.
Spray a nonstick soup pan with non-fat cooking spray. Cook meat and taco seasoning over medium heat until fully cooked.
Add diced tomatoes, refried beans, beef broth, kidney beans and corn. Bring to a boil over high heat. Once it comes to a boil, it is ready to serve. Makes 13 cups with 172 calories per 1 cup serving.
If desired, lightly sprinkle fat-free cheddar cheese or crushed baked tortilla chips on top of each bowl.

I'm new at this, a novice at best. I'm using QGIS 1.7.3. I simply want to select a large number of points on a single polygon and delete them. Is this possible?
All the answers given will work, depending on how you define 'select' and 'make it smaller'. However, my guess from your latest comment is that you want to just chop a portion off your polygon rather than simplify the number of vertices while maintaining the general shape of the whole polygon. Spilth's answer ought to work, but for me it only deletes one node from the selection and not ALL the selected vertices (I'm using version 1.9.9 on Windows). If you have this same issue, an alternative method for cutting out a section of your polygon is this:
This will chop off the smaller part of the polygon. You can also use this tool to add to a polygon if you start and finish drawing from inside the polygon.
As you added as a comment: "Well, I have a big shapefile that is a river. I want to select half of the shapefile and delete it, to make the file smaller. I don't think performing a spatial query would work for that. "
I suggest to use: Vector -> Geometry Tools -> Simpliyfy Geometries.
if you want only one line-feature of many line-features processed, you can first select this line on the canavas and then tick the box "use only selected features" in the dialog-windows of Simplify Geometries. You may have to try different tolerance values to get the desired resultat...
Hope this helps

Protecting your instrument from daily wear and tear is an important part of its care and maintenance.. Your guitar needs a proper case or gig bag whether you're transporting to and from shows, travelling, practicing or storing it. By properly caring for your guitar you can add years to its life so it looks and sounds beautiful as long as you own it.
The first question to ask is whether you need a case or a gig bag. Cases usually have a hard shell, are bigger and heavier and very strong. A case would be ideal for a touring guitarist who spends a lot of time travelling, either by car or plane. If you play a lot of shows and your guitar is constantly being transported from the back of a van to the stage, a sturdy case will protect it from being dropped, scratched or jostled around. Gig bags are made from softer, flexible, often water-resistant material and tend to be noticeably lighter than a hard shell case. They still give your guitar excellent protection from rain, dust and debris, making them an ideal option for a more casual player who sticks close to home or a nearby rehearsal.
The main factors to consider when purchasing a case or gig bag are durability and security. Most guitarists require a case or gig bag that has heavy-duty latches or a sturdy zipper, a tough exterior and a soft interior. When your guitar is stored in a case or gig bag, you want to ensure it stays put without fear of falling out or being damaged. Other things to consider are what kind of features you want and how much storage space you have when not using the guitar. A heavy-duty guitar case takes up more room than a gig bag so consider where you guitar will be when you're not rocking out with it. Do you need extra room for lots of accessories or do you just travel with your guitar and a pick or two? Do you need an extra level of security with a case that locks? Once you figure out the fine details, finding the perfect case or gig bag will be a much simpler task.
With so many guitar cases and gig bags to choose from, the decision ultimately comes down to your own preference and personal circumstances. The main goal is finding one that protects your investment so you can look and sound your best for years of stellar performance.

For a couple of months now, state police have seen a continual rise in car break-ins in our area.
Troopers say, they always see a rise in auto thefts during the holiday shopping season, but this year they have continued even after the shopping season.
They ask you to keep your vehicle locked at all times, and during the winter, if you leave your car warming up in your driveway, that can often lead to theft.
"That's a perfect time for someone to come in and steal their belongings and or their car. We are also finding when people get home they think their car's in their driveway. Their property should be safe, but that's where a lot of these crimes are occurring," says Public Affairs Officer, Trooper Jonathan Biven.
Police say if you have to keep something inside of your car, you must always keep it in your trunk and out of sight.

The 2009 movie that I watched on television on New Year's Eve entitled 'Margot' was an unbelievable insult to two of the world's greatest artists. I managed to sit through it but was disgusted by the whole thing.
This is a cheap movie, done to make a quick buck, using cheap ideas, and actors who obviously had no knowledge of the personalities of Margot Fonteyn and Rudolf Nureyev. The two Ronnies, whom I saw doing a skit in a nightclub many years ago had a much better understanding of their characters and Dr. Arias who was there at the time in his wheelchair was nothing like the character on the screen.
The casting for this movie was pathetic apart from the actor who played the part of Frederick Ashton. As for Eric Bruhn, he was hardly there, in spite of the fact that he played a huge part in Rudi's life. What a wonderful story this could have been if the object had not been to dwell on the possible sexual relationship between Rudi and Margot. The producers of this film have really taken advantage of the fact that these great artists are dead and are thus unable to respond themselves to this trash.. It makes me feel ashamed that young ballet students will have seen this wicked interpretation of a wonderful person.
I found it difficult to watch the weak interpretation of the actor who played the part of Rudi. It was quite sickening. Rudi was a powerful being with so many changes to his personality and none of this came over. The actor's face was completely wrong for a start as was his voice. It was as if those concerned had never actually seen Rudi, let alone studied his personality and worked hard on trying to resemble him in some way. Margot was not the Margot I knew, who was bubbly and friendly with everyone. Where was her lovely laugh? This actor had completely the wrong shaped face to start with.
As for the story line, it was taken from Meredith Daneman's book which went into great detail about Rudi and Margot's personal life and the author went overboard with intimate details of Margot's body. Completely tasteless! There was nothing there about Margot's exciting professional life. It was all based on a sexual affair for the mere purpose of shocking, causing a stir and saying, 'Aren't I brave?" The movie is a write-off. Burn it!

RHS Super Dirt Late Model LS7 Engine Build - Part 2Written by on January 11, 2014 The Next Generation Race Engine Returns
Check out Part 1 and Part 3 of this series on building the next generation race engine!
There is a syndrome unique to magazine staffers—particularly the dirty-hands car and magazine books—which in terms of embarrassment is the equivalent of walking around all day with your fly open. It goes by various names, but the most common scientific term is "Stalled Build Project." The symptoms are easy to identify—a magazine begins a new project with great fanfare, but then fails to show up in subsequent issues. In mild cases of SBP, the project will sheepishly show up again a few issues down the row, but some cases of SBP can be fatal with the unfortunate project never to be seen again. Unfortunately, we've tested positive for the affliction.
Since taking over the helm, editor Fisher has encouraged everyone at Circle Track not to simply report the status quo, but to push the boundaries of what's possible with stock car racing technology. It has been a great mandate that has allowed the magazine to build an environmentally friendly race car (E85 burning Project GREEN) among other fun and really cool projects. Our latest has been in planning for months that hopefully will make a real impact on the racing landscape and not simply be just another series of magazine articles.
The idea is to take a look at Chevrolet's LS engine technology to see how well it will work as a replacement for the venerable small-block. And since we never take the easy way out, we started with one of the toughest challenges we could think of—Dirt Late Model racing. And while the LS is still in production (unlike the small-block) and OEM components are easily available, we decided to test the aftermarket to see how difficult it would be to source race-quality components.
So it was with enthusiasm that we kicked off the LS7 build project featuring RHS's excellent aluminum block and CNC-cut cylinder heads all the way back in the June '13 issue of Circle Track. We took a look at the major components we planned to use, how the LS architecture is different from the classic small-block we're all already familiar with, and introduced engine builder Bob Cronin who is leading the build project.
And then…nothing.
Stalled build project. It happened when we jumped the gun with the build, but still lacked a few critical components. Part of the problem is the LS7 hasn't been around as long as the LS1 and other variations, so there were a few holes when we looked for components that could hold up to the rigors of oval track racing in the big leagues. Jesel saved our hides when they stepped up and designed a new set of shaft mount roller rockers for the LS7 heads. We also want to start out with a carbureted setup for the engine (but we're reserving the right to test fuel injection in the future) and discovered that the options for a carb'ed intake are limited. It left us making a few unexpected phone calls while deadlines passed unmet.
Thankfully, our case of Stalled Build Project was mild and we're back. We're still trying to sketch out the best option for an oil pan that will work with a rear-mount oil pump and won't interfere with a Dirt Late Model chassis' suspension pickup points, but we've thrown salt over our shoulder and crossed our fingers, so we're confident we'll have the solution when the time comes. That doesn't mean we won't miss another deadline, but we have the best intentions, and mother says that counts for a lot.
This time around Bob Cronin, who is one of the leading LS-based race engine builders for sports car racing, mocks up our DLM LS7. Regardless of what engine you are building, properly mocking up the engine before the build can help avoid fitment issues and other pitfalls. Follow along to see how we install this build and get back on the LS7 horse.
Intake Intrigue
Even though we've enlisted the help of some of the best LS experts available, this buildup series is more of an experiment than a how-to on building the perfect LS engine. That's because an LS7 has never been built to race in a Super Dirt Late Model car before, so we're learning as we go.
And the induction system is definitely going to be a learning area. The problem is there just isn't a wide variety of cast aluminum intakes for mounting a carb to the LS7. Originally, we had hoped to use Edelbrock's excellent Victor intake, but it turns out the Victor unit is for the LS1 and won't fit our LS7 heads. So we turned to Pace Performance and they set us up with a cast single-plane intake from Chevrolet Performance—which, at the time, was the only intake we could find that works. There may be other carbureted options available for the LS7 by the time you read this.
The Chevrolet Performance intake we are using—PN 25534394—is a nice piece but it is designed to work best on a hot rod and not a full-out race car so the ideal rpm range may be a bit lower than what we need. We took the intake to induction specialist MBE Cylinder Heads & Manifolds to see what could be done. MBE produces winning induction systems for everything from Dirt Late Models to Sprint Cars and Top Fuel drag racers, and when owner Matt Bieneman offered to cut up the intake, port it, and weld it back up as a completely new creation, we knew he could do it, but declined since that's not the goal of the project. But we did take them up on their offer for a little light porting work to maximize this intake's capabilities
MBE owner Matt Bieneman builds winning intakes int he top levels of both circle track racing and rag racing, and he immediately saw where the LS7 intake we brought him might be lacking on the track. For comparison, he pulled out one of the MBE's own intakes for a 13-degree Chevrolet engine, which is the current state of the art in Super Dirt late Models. Notice how much shorter our intake is on the left. The runners also don't have line-of-sight like the racing intake on the left. Matt says we can make up so me of the difference with carb spacers, but that's a compromise and not a perfect solution.

1 Cronin keeps meticulous notes on every engine build. He begins by measuring the main journal sizes on the Lunati forged crank. The 4.600 stroke crank sticks to the stock 2.560-inch main journal diameter.2 Next, he moves on to the measure the rod journals to confirm they are within 0.0001 of the advertised 2.100-inch size and records all his measurements in his build book.3 After recording all his measurements, Cronin moves on to the block. A standard set of mockup bearings are installed in the main bearing bores.4 After recording all his measurements, Cronin moves on to the block. A standard set of mockup bearings are installed in the main bearing bores.5 It's important to properly torque the main cap fasteners before measuring the bore diameter because improperly tightened fasteners can change the bore size.6 The same holds true for the rod journals. We found the 7/16-inch rod cap screws for the Lunati connecting rods stretched to the 0.0057-inch Cronin was looking for with 75 lb-ft of torque.7 Cronin measured the rod bore diameter and then subtracted the crank's rod journal diameter he had already recorded from that to get the clearance. For the main journals we got the 0.0025-inch clearance we were looking for with standard bearings, but we'll need to mix in a half set of "X" bearings to open up the oil clearance an extra 0.0005-inch.8 The Mahle pistons we're using have a complex shape with both a dome and valve pockets. Mahle provides the dome volume, but what we need to know is the volume of the piston in the bore.
10 By using a deck bridge gauge, Cronin is able to check the deck height at piston TDC. Sometimes, like in our case here, a piston dome will keep you from measuring the piston depth along the centerline of the wristpin. So measure at both the top and bottom and rock the piston in the bore until you know it is level. In our case, at TDC the piston is 0.007-inch in the hole.11 Knowing the piston dome volume is one thing, but the useful information is to know the net volume when the piston is at TDC to take into account that 0.007-inch the piston is below the deck. To do this we need to cc the piston. Cronin begins by dropping the piston into the bore and wiping a thin film of grease around the top of the cylinder bore.12 Cronin made this cc checker to work with a domed piston, but you can have your machinist make one for you from a piece of acrylic. Just make sure the cup is tall enough not to contact the piston dome.14 Next, Cronin installs one of the cylinder heads with a mockup head gasket. The gasket has a 0.040-inch compressed thickness just like the gasket we will be using.15 Although we will check piston-to-valve clearance once the full camshaft and timing chain are installed, Cronin checks the valve clearance at piston TDC. He is also checking to make sure the valves don't rub the side of the piston's valve pockets.16 The last step is to find the correct pushrod length. To do this we need the Comp Cams camshaft and lifters in place.17 Unlike an old-school small-block, with LS engines the heads have to be off the block for the lifters to be installed. Cronin slid the lifters into the bores before installing the cylinder head and then just raised the lifter before sliding the cam into the block.
20 Cronin adjusts the length of the checking pushrod until there is no lash in the valvetrain when the adjuster cup is run down one turn from fully out (or up, depending on how you look at it). Although at first it may make sense to have the adjuster cup centered, raising it almost all the way up helps the rocker arm angle and stability.It turns out the transition from the intake to the cylinder heads match up perfectly, so they won't need to be touched.Jacob did find that the plenum area and the runner entrances can be improved with a little work to help the intake's high-rpm potential.

You [verb] use your mobile phone while you're driving. It's against the law.
What verb should be used?
- don't have to
- needn't
- mustn't
- can't
Is can't correct, or only mustn't is correct?
What is the difference?
What verb should be used?
Is can't correct, or only mustn't is correct?
I mustn't X means that it is imperative that I not do X.
I can't X means that it is not possible for me to do X.
Therefore, mustn't is the correct answer.
However, in colloquial speech, people would use the word "can't", since it is implied in the statement that you cannot use your mobile phone without breaking the law.
If I had to choose a word from that list I would opt for "mustn't".
Luckily, I don't have to because I would say something completely different i.e: "Don't use your mobile while driving. It's against the law."
It suggests that I am in this possible situation:
I am driving in my car with my mother sitting next to me. My mobile rings and instinctively I reach to answer it. My mother looks at me sternly (or with deep concern) and tells me: "You mustn't use your mobile etc."
I am like a child being told what to do by her parent, in this case her authority is greater than mine. Must is often used by individuals whose authority is greater than ours, (I am simplifying here but it's generally true) and is also used for giving emphatic advice:
"You must take more exercise. Join a gym."
However, can't is also acceptable if the situation changes:
This time I am driving in my car but I have a friend sitting next to me, and (s)he reminds me that I am breaking the law. (S)he does not have any authority over me, we are equal.
We use "can" and "cannot" to talk about having permission to do or not do something.
"I can't use my mobile" can mean I am not allowed; it is not allowed by the police/the law or it is not right thing to do.
Oxford Dictionaries Online says that can't is simply a contraction for can not, and the entry for can includes this definition and examples:
The word is certainly used that way in conversation all the time, and sometimes in the news. But not too often. It's more common for an attention-grabbing headline to use the word can't above an article that instead uses more formal words like prevent, prohibit, has no authority, or cannot legally.
Oxford Dictionaries Online includes this usage note:
Correct completions for that blank would be "may not" (the abbreviation "mayn't" is very unusual) and "shouldn't". Quick illustration:
No, you may not. or "No, you must never use your mobile phone while driving."
No, you shouldn't.
None of the options suggested form any relation to the obvious sense of the sentence in relation to being against the law. "Mustn't" comes closest.
Another good alternative is You must disuse your mobile phone while driving. (Not only may you not stop using it while driving, you must stop if you were already using it.)
I think in the context of the original sentence,'can't' expresses that using your mobile phone while driving is not allowed, and 'mustn't' expresses necessity to not do it. In this context either can be used, but that's not always the case.
eg. Some people think that home-schooled students can't sit high school exams - 'mustn't' would not fit here.

Baby Rattles, Teethers & Grabbers
Babies like to shake, teethe, and grab. These are ways of engaging their new world. When considering early toys for your newborn, choose ones that give gentle feedback. Babies are highly disorganized and can be easily upset. It's good to select toys that stimulate their five basic senses with soothing sounds, large round contours, bright colors, and different textures. Such toys will help your baby begin to develop a foundation for understanding his or her immediate environment.
Naturally Safe & Non-Toxic
The baby rattles, teethers and grabbing toys you'll find here are made ofnon-toxic, sustainable materials. They are eco-friendly, natural, or wooden. They are certified child-safe and non-toxic.

AirDroid is a impressive app, but I'm not able to access from pc to th SD content, only to the internal folders (also named sd card I think)
I've contact with other AirDroid user and this is an known bug for the developer, to be resolved in future version.
File Expert will give you both on-device, Explorer-like access to your files, and access over WiFi from your browser, an FTP client or Bluetooth. You won't need a separate browser-access app. It is well reviewed and free/no ads.
What do you mean with the "internal folders" are also named "sd card" seems weird to me. Maybe you assume /sdcard is a local folder? Which it isn't that's the location of your SD card's content.
Above, when you want to access your SD card's content in your PC, it have to be dismounted from the phone which will make apps installed on it inaccessible. Mostly you have to approve the dismounting of the SD card manually from your phone. I can imagine that when AirDroid is installed on your SD card it cannot dismount it because it has some necessary files on it.

DateField onChange event only on lost focus?
I added Ext.form.DateField component into toolbar. When I click on DateField Trigger button and select DateValue from DatePicker, selected value is added into input field. This is OK. But
change event is called only after clicking outside Datefield. It is there event or other way how update my grid automatically when date value from DatePicker is added to DateField component? Thanks
PHP Code:
var dateFrom = new Ext.form.DateField({
id: 'dateFrom',
width: 80,
value: todayDate,
selectOnFocus: false,
readOnly: true,
allowBlank: false
dateFrom.on('change', getFilteredValues);
function renderDate(value){
return value.dateFormat('d.m.Y');
function getFilteredValues() {
ds.on('beforeload', function() {
ds.baseParams = {
filterDateFrom: renderDate(dateFrom.getValue())
ds.load({params:{start:0, limit:myPageSize}});

same problem for me
Hi, al_capone:
I have the same problem. Jack had suggestion something like this:
Ext.form.DateField.prototype.menuListeners.show = function(){
However, this event only fired before date is pickup.
Anyone suggestion will be really appreciated.
Fenqiang Zhuang
20 Aug 2007 9:14 PM #3
If you are trying to get the event of a user selecting a date on the calendar, this is the way:
Ext.form.DateField.prototype.menuListeners.hide = function(){ //do whatever here, like this.onBlur(); };
21 Aug 2007 2:41 AM #4
thanks your code works fine
when i was waiting for some answer to my question i coded something like this:
it looks like DateField component
PHP Code:
var todayDate = new Date();
var fromDate = new Date();
var toDate = new Date();
var dateMenuFrom = new Ext.menu.DateMenu({
handler : function(dp, date){
if (date>toDate) {
Ext.Msg.alert('Bad date', 'Date "FROM" must be less than date "TO".');
} else {
fromDate = date;
var buttonDateFrom = new Ext.Toolbar.Button({
id: 'buttonDateFrom',
cls: 'x-btn-text-icon',
icon: iconPath + 'silk/icons/date_previous.png',
text: renderDate(todayDate),
menu: dateMenuFrom
var tb = new Ext.Toolbar(gridHead);

This pointed me in the right direction but had a few minor problems: "hide" is called even when the user presses "ESC" to close the date picker without picking a date. In addition this solution replaces the original hide function in datefield which appears to have some important code in it. My solution is still a bit of a hack since it could be invalidated by a change in Ext. But for now it works.
Add this code to your project
Ext.form.DateField.prototype.menuListeners.select = function(m,d) { this.setValue(d); // write date user selected into the text box this.fireEvent('dateselect'); // fire dateselect event }
myDateControl.on('dateselect', onChangeDate, this);

Use 'select', not 'change'
I know this is an old thread, but I hit this problem today and realised what I was doing wrong, and so figured I'd report it here in case it helps others in the future.
So, I hit the problem that a DateField embedded in a toolbar was only firing the 'change' event when focus moved away from the DateField.
The solution was to use the 'select' event instead. It fires as soon as a date is selected. So, I now have:
new Ext.form.DateField({ readOnly: true, listeners: { 'select' : { fn: function(field, date) { // ... do something useful here ... } } } });

A Puzzling Approach - Page 2
The First Corner Piece: Simulation
In order to optimize your racing experience, your training should mimic the course you will encounter and the race goals you plan to accomplish. In other words, if you want to run a trail marathon, you're not going to have the same experience if your preparation includes jumping into a handful of 5K road races and hoping for the best, than if you were to implement a few 15- to 20-mile progression runs on terrain similar to the race you intend to enter.
My client Heather Kroeger of Saint Louis, Missouri, attributes this approach to success at her first marathon: "It helped me to get a Boston [Marathon] qualifying time even though I had never run a full marathon."
When I was training for the 2010 U.S. Mountain Running Championships, which took place at New Hampshire's Mount Washington Road Race, I structured my entire build-up around running fast uphill. My goal was to qualify for Team USA, which meant I needed to secure one of the top four coveted women's spots in order to travel to Slovenia for the World Championships.
Knowing the entire course would be all uphill on a paved road and climb 4650 feet from start to finish at a 12-percent average grade, I put trail running on the back burner and focused on a combination of long, uphill tempo runs, ranging from 800 meters to 3200 meters all on paved roads.
In addition to simulating the course in your training, it's also important to mimic your typical race-day routine. This encompasses external factors, including fuel, weather, clothing, navigating a crowded field, etc.
For example, if you're training for a marathon, practice drinking the same fuel the race will provide (unless you plan to carry your own) at the very intervals you plan to eat or drink during the race so you know ahead of time what will agree (or disagree) with your digestive system. This consistency also trains your body to know when to expect to receive fuel and when not to expect it.
In preparation for any race longer than a half marathon, I always schedule a "trial run" for my clients where they practice everything they might encounter on race day. I typically ask them to run 70- to 80-percent of the race distance on a similar course, at the same time of day the race will be held, in the same typical weather conditions (if feasible). Additionally, I ask them to wear the same clothes they plan to race in so they can be aware of any discomforts (chaffing, rubbing, tightness, looseness, etc.) in order to allow ample time to make any necessary changes before race day arrives.

The EUROMED Invest project and its operations
EUROMED Invest, with a budget of €5 million, is one of the main European programs aiming at developing private investments and economic relations in the Euro-Mediterranean area.
Its objective is to renew the interest of SMEs in the Euro-Mediterranean market, increase investment and business projects flow, and ensure that the EU regains its leading position as source of foreign direct investment in these countries.
Following the kick-off meeting of EUROMED Invest that took place in Marseille last 26-28th of May, the First Call for proposals of the project has been disseminated among the 79 affiliated organisations.
About 40 operations have been selected by the Executive Committee and will be implemented in the three upcoming years. Different kinds of activities will be developed: business matchmaking gatherings in Europe and in South Mediterranean countries, young entrepreneurs masterclasses, mentoring actions for companies and business support organisations and best practices sharing academies for business support organisations. The second call for proposals of the project is expected to be launched in July 2015.
The project is coordinated by ANIMA Investment Network within the MedAlliance consortium, which consists of 6 members: Eurochambres (Association of European Chambers of Commerce), ASCAME (Association of Mediterranean Chambers of Commerce), BusinessMed (Union of Mediterranean Confederations of Enterprises), EMDC (Euro-med Development Center for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises), GACIC (German-Arab Chamber of Commerce) and EABC (Euro-Arab Business Council).
EUROMED Invest is funded by the European Commission, the MedAlliance consortium, the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur Region and the City of Marseilles.
