Slovenian runners won the International Grintovec Race, at Kamnik,third stage of WMRA World Cup 2015
- 27 July 2015
Success for Slovenian runners on their home soil: Nejc Kuhar and Karmen Klančnik were the fastest among 220 runners from 14 countries.
The weather forecast for the day of the race was promising a major change – after almost one month of African summer heat, rain should come during the night before the race and chill the air for more than 20deg – and the meteorologists did not make a mistake.
It was a drizzly day with slippery rocks all along the way from the Kamniska Bistrica valley to the Grintovec summit.
The runners had to climb for almost 2000m in less than 10km.
Everybody who knows what does it mean has a respect to this race and to all the runners who beat this challenging course.

WMRA Mountain Running World Cup resumes in Kamnik, for the third stage 2015.
- 25 July 2015
After the European and NACAC Mountain Running Championships, more than 200 runners from 15 countries have entered the 17th edition of "The Grintovec Mountain running race", the third stage of WMRA 2015 Mountain Running World Cup, that will be held on Sunday 26th July in Kamnik, Slovenia.
The course is a real mountain course, taking the normal trail from the Kamniska Valley (602m) to the Grintovec summit (2.558m).
Almost 2000m elevation gain on less than 10km; normal hikers need 6 hours to reach the summit and another six to go back.
Course record holders are Jonathan Wyatt (NZL) and Anna Pichrtova (CZE) with 1:15:43 and 1:31:50 (both in 2006) and it seems that those records will last for a long time.

Bundesliga strugglers Stuttgart confirmed on Tuesday that coach Thomas Schneider will remain in charge for at least one more match despite a club record run of eight consecutive league defeats.
"The board has decided to continue working with Thomas Schneider and the advisory board are 100 percent behind this decision," said VfB president Bernd Wahler in a statement.
Schneider, who only took charge of Stuttgart last August after predecessor Bruno Labbadia was fired, will be on the bench for Saturday's home game against bottom side Eintracht Braunschweig.
German media had reported on Tuesday that he was set to be fired in the wake of Sunday's 2-1 defeat at Eintracht Frankfurt which extended the club's record for consecutive defeats to eight matches.
According to SID, an AFP subsidiary, Stuttgart's director of sport Fredi Bobic and Wahler had fought to keep Schneider in a board meeting on Monday.
Stuttgart are 15th in the league table, outside the relegation places only on goal difference.
Schneider's position would be untenable if they suffer a ninth successive defeat against Braunschweig, who are three points behind the Swabians at the foot of the table.

Tom Sutcliffe is joined by historian Kathryn Hughes, artistic director of the ICA Ekow Eshun and writer Antonia Quirke to review the cultural highlights of the week.
Jacques Audiard's film A Prophet won the Grand Jury prize at Cannes last year and is France's entry for Best Foreign Film at the 2010 Oscars. Tahar Rahim plays Malik, a rootless young Arab who we see entering the French prison system. He finds himself treated as a slave by the Corsicans who offer him protection and is shunned by the other Arab inmates, but he learns how to play the game and gradually elevates himself to a position of power.
Iranian writer Kader Abdolah fled Iran in 1985. His opposition to the Khomeini regime as a member of the underground left-wing movement had made his life there untenable. Living in the Netherlands since 1988 and writing in Dutch, his 2005 novel Het huis van der moskee became a bestseller there. Now translated into English as The House of the Mosque, it traces the fortunes of a family through the Iranian revolution.
The Little Dog Laughed - a play by Douglas Carter Beane - has just opened at London's Garrick Theatre. Mitchell (Rupert Friend) is a rising star whose elevation to the movie stratosphere looks assured, so long as he doesn't come out. Diane (Tamsin Greig), his ferocious agent, is determined that both their careers maintain an upwards trajectory and does her best to prise Mitchell away from from his rent boy lover and keep him on the straight and narrow.
Mrs Mandela on BBC Four is Michael Samuels's dramatisation of the life of controversial figure Winnie Mandela. Starring Sophie Okonedo it begins with Nelson Mandela's (David Harewood) release from prison in 1990 and then travels backwards and forwards in time, between the attempts of a couple separated for 27 years to reconstruct their relationship and what Winnie has experienced while her husband has been in jail.
In The Real Van Gogh: The Artist and His Letters at the Royal Academy, the caricature of Van Gogh as the classic mad artist - his greatness linked to his mental turbulence - is replaced with an account of a phenomenally focused artist obsessed with improving his technical skills and exploring every medium available. The pictures are displayed alongside the letters that Van Gogh wrote to his brother Theo and others - passionate accounts of his ambitions, his frustrations and his ideas about art, often illustrated with tiny sketches of paintings he had already made or planned to.

Women Who Run with the Wolves: Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetypeby Clarissa Pinkola Estes
View All Available Formats & Editions
Within every woman there lives a powerful force, filled with good instincts, passionate creativity, and ageless knowing. She is the Wild Woman, who represents the instinctual nature of women. But she is an endangered species. For though the gifts of wildish nature belong to us at birth, society's attempt to "civilize" us into rigid roles has muffled the deep, life-giving messages of our own souls. In Women Who Run With the Wolves, Dr. Estes unfolds rich intercultural myths, fairy tales, and stories, many from her own family, in order to help women reconnect with the fierce, healthy, visionary attributes of this instinctual nature. Through the stories and commentaries in this remarkable book, we retrieve, examine, love, and understand the Wild Woman, and hold her against our deep psyches as one who is both magic and medicine. Dr. Estes has created a new lexicon for describing the female psyche. Fertile and life-giving, it is a psychology of women in the truest sense, a knowing of the soul.

I read this book in college and I have decided to reread it now that I have gotten married. I enjoyed reading this great book in college, because it was reccommended to me by a classmate in one of my Psychology classes. I highly reccommened this book as an interesting read for women.
What is it that makes a woman not like a man? The common answer, of course, has to do with genitalia and reproduction, a less common though still frequent distinction comes from the presence of two X chromosomes in every cell of the female body. Neither of this means of differentiation, as obvious as they seem, help answer the question. Clarissa Pinkola Estes, both a Jungian Analyst and professional story teller ('contradora') draws on a rich mix of background from both of her professions to lay the underpinnings from the collective unconscious and archetypes to provide a much more sophisticated if complex answer to the nature of a woman. If you are a woman, this may help you define yourself, uif you are a man, the book will both enhance your respect for as well as add a bit to your dim understanding of those marvellous aliens with two X chromosomes. Very Highly Recommended indeed!
This book was and still is a great read. It's definetly one of my favorites! It's inspirational, it makes you think, gives you an understanding, it's down to earth and it's real. Every woman should own this book! Honestly, I sometimes use this book as a guide. I open it randomly, as I do with most all my books and where I open it, I go to the beginning of that story and I read it. Ususally the story is pertaining to things that are happening around me at that time and it gives me a different outlook, a different view or opinion about my situation. Bottom line, it's a must for woman, and I feel if/when men buy her book they will get a better understanding of woman on a deeper level. In paperback, I have had my book, The Woman Who Run with Wolves since 1996. I wanted it as a gift and I got it. I actually didn't just want it, I had to have it. At that time the book was not as popular as it became. About 3 yrs ago I bought another book to have as back-up for this one. Although the book can now be purchased in hardcover I bought another paperback. Personally I like this book in paperback, it's easier to take with me eveywhere.
I have read this book 5 times and each time I extract new insight. Absolutely fascinating psychological explanations of childhood fairytales. This book is a MUST for any woman who desires to live her life honestly and fully.
For anyone wanting a better understanding of the female psyche this is a must read whether they are male or female. This is actually my third copy of this book my first was so worn the pages were no longer readable. You develop a deeper understanding every time you pick it up. As an audio book it is a convenient way to continue getting things done when you don't have a free hand. I definitely recommend this and other books by Estes. It is a valuable learning tool and can have a great impact on the lives of many women.
Ms Estes keeps your attention through her stories.The stories would have appeal and provides interest to anyone but, especially for women. I would say that no matter what your background is, this will have you saying, "that fits me". Her voice is gentle and calming as she reads her stories. This CD is an excellent source to introduce you to Ms Estes work.
A beautifully written collection of insightful stories. I've kept this book at my side for years, it never gets old. Ms. Estes is a superb storyteller, and the wisdom gained from these stories is priceless.
Excellent book.
I cherish this book and I read it over and over again .The work of a brilliant woman who becomes ones voice for one so silent . You find yourself agreeing with the author and learning to love the instinctual gifts we as women possess. It is a book for every woman who feels the injustice of a world which undervalues us .
I loved this book. It helped me when I was going through a bad breakup. I always come back to this book when I need a little self confidence. Through the stories you will realize things you have never really realized before. It is a thought provoking book. Give it a chance. It might be a little hard for some to read but stick with it it gets better!!!
This book will never be sold at a yard sale! It helped me through very difficult times with my ex-husband, and it still gives me insight into life from a woman's perspective. This is a must have for any woman.

Prior to the 14th century virtually everyone assumed the Earth was at the center of the universe.

A few months ago UNICEF reported that British children were the unhappiest in the Western world. Youth unemployment is higher now than it was in 1997. 15% of British school-leavers are functionally illiterate. Bit early to be claiming "mission accomplished" at home?
N.B. Could a co-conspirator let Guido know where Gordon was yesterday? Wasn't paying attention and will need it for the Where's Gordon?™ interactive mapping thingy being developed.
The difference in audience size enjoyed by the likes of Iain and Guido compared to the contributors to our respective anti-blogs is growing. Now readers will know that Guido, like Iain, is a humble type, shy and retiring even, so it is with some hesitation that Guido ventures to say that the reason Iain and Guido have far more readers is that we try to be entertaining and bring news. Now Guido may only aspire to gossip and tittle-tattle (over 80,000 people have watched the Gordon the Bogeyman story), but that seems to be what people want and enjoy.
It may not be what others think Guido should write about, it may not be in the deferential style that others think should be employed, it certainly gets up the noses of the old media and the embedded-in-the-political-system journalists known as the Lobby. If you don't like it, don't read it.
Simple. Better still, offer a more compelling and attractive product that beats Guido in the competitive marketplace that is the blogosphere. That takes hard work. The easier path is just to call for censorship or attack and try to undermine the legitimacy of your rivals. Claim that Iain and Guido's ascendancy is not based on hard work or talent, but lies and fiction, claim that the two most successful and well known bloggers in Britain somehow undermine blogging. We have done so much to popularise this medium – it is not going to wash. Blogging is just an easy way of publishing, it is a software platform, not a religious movement. Get real.
The new anti-Iain blog is in a sense a tribute blog and further evidence that the contributors have a poverty of ideas. They would enjoy more success if they tried something less derivative and more novel. Meantime Dizzy wants an anti-blog as well. You're no one daahhling, if you haven't got one.
On the first day of this year Guido made 5 predictions. Including this one –
2. Following a surge to the SNP in local elections the Conservatives will finally move away from Unionism and towards spinning off Scottish and Welsh sister parties as part of their localism agenda.
ConservativeHome and the Speccie are now confirming this will happen.
Osborne's approach to David Laws means that another prediction has already come off –
4. Informal Tory approaches will be made to leading LibDem figures as to discussions on the shape of the future governing coalition.
Watch out Mystic Meg…
MPs like Ed Balls, Douglas Alexander, Liam Byrne, Martin Salter discussing with Polly Toynbee anti-Tory political strategies is nothing new, discussing them at a non-partisan, non-political charity event would be very interesting. That is exactly what they did at a seminar held on Tuesday 22nd March 2005 on the very eve of the General Election.Also attending were – surprise, surprise – Deborah Mattinson and Scarlett McGwire from Opinion Leader Research, pollsters for the Treasury.
Polly advised the Labour team about the Tory's tactics; "Dog whistling is exactly what it is: hitting and running day after day, leaving Labour looking lame, wrong footed, unable to keep up. All the more important is to be able to produce the kind of moral vision that is envisaged here or is beginning to be described here."
All the more important for who? Ed Balls tells her he was "very taken by Polly's language in terms of a need for a legend for the left." The seminar transcript goes on and on. So the question is – does the Charity Commission still believe that the Smith Institute is non-political?
Isn't it just Gordon Brown's strategic campaigning arm?
Is that normal? Write a note to yourself so that you remember how to describe yourself? You know, must make a note just in case one gets forgetful, "I'm Guido, with a bit of cheeky rebellious streak, who is overly partial to a drink and likes to poke fun at politicians." Wouldn't a note to self like that be a bit odd?
According to a graphologist the handwriting shows
"He will dig his feet in over issues because he is so convinced he has the right answer. He is obviously forceful but he was very, very angry when he wrote this – and a bit shaken. He has a vulnerable side but is suppressing that. He doesn't want to admit a weakness. Quite a few signs of being self-centred come through, even to the point of being egotistic. And he would not like people digging too deep – he wouldn't be comfortable with that at all."
*From the Daily Mail.
He is never there. Pension grab – not his idea – it was civil servants, CBI, former Chancellor's twentysomething special adviser called, errmm, Cameron. Anyone but Gordon…
Smith Institute – 167 political meetings at his place organised by his best friend – nothing to do with Gordon.
Watch the local election campaign, if it looks bad for Labour you can bet he won't be taking responsibility. He'll be out of sight, out of mind – he hopes. So Guido is asking the co-conspirators to trail him and email in sightings of him on the campaign trail for the next month. Where's Gordon? is the question to be answered – the blog will have an interactive map of his daily movements up and running soon. More fun than pavement policy analysis…
This is the blog you love, and they hate.

--Feb 12-26, 2015: Curator (with Srdjan Jovanovic Weiss) of Romancing True Power: D20, exhibition at Parsons The New School for Design (66 Fifth Ave)
The D20 - modeled after the G20 group of most industrialized nations - is a selective list of leaders from present and recent past, across continents and political systems, who, in some way, represent many people's ideal of strong power - a true power. We call it Dick power. Romancing True Power investigates an idea of power: autocratic, authoritarian and dictatorial; a power present in dictatorships, but that can be found in democracies as well. The exhibition is an invitation to re-imagine true power by looking at dicktatorial constructs, their typology and trappings. As each person's Dick list is subjective, at the show we will invite you to PYOD (Pick Your Own Dick). Who is on your D20 list?

Scale Computing, developers of HC3, the industry's leading hyperconverged solution built for midmarket companies that seamlessly combines servers, storage and virtualization into a single system, announced today that Alan Cohen has joined its Board of Directors. Alan is a technology veteran who has worked at some of the industry's leading companies such as Cisco (NASDAQ: CSCO) and IBM (NYSE: IBM), as well as several disruptive startups in networking and software technology, including Nicira, Airespace and Tahoe Networks.
"Alan joins our Board of Directors at an exciting time as we accelerate our ability to bring easy-to-use and affordable products to small and midmarket IT, building on a range of new capabilities in our HC3 platform," said Jeff Ready, CEO of Scale Computing. "His combined go-to-market experience and industry knowledge will help guide Scale as we continue to lead the virtualization hyperconvergence trend in the midmarket."
Most recently, Alan was the VP of Marketing for Nicira, through VMware's (NYSE: VMW) purchase of the company for $1.26 billion. Prior to that, he spent over 6 years as Cisco, including VP of Enterprise Solutions, leading a marketing and solutions portfolio that represented over half of Cisco's revenue.
"Virtualization is the most powerful force in computing today and Scale dramatically lowers the burden and cost of deploying and managing it within a huge and incredibly underserved market segment," said Cohen. "When you combine Scale's Apple-like simplicity with a vast, open playing field, you are offered a tremendous opportunity. With only 10 percent of the midmarket virtualized, I'm very much looking forward to helping Scale capitalize on this with HC3."
Prior to Cisco, Alan led marketing and product management at Airespace, a pioneering Enterprise Wireless LAN Company Cisco acquired in 2005 for $450 million. Alan's earlier professional experiences including management and executive roles at U S WEST and Coopers & Lybrand. He is a graduate of the New York University Stern School of Business, American University's School of International Service and SUNY Buffalo. He is a frequent contributor to tech blogs like ReadWrite, Fortune, TechCrunch and PandoDaily. His personal blog, Ineluctable Modality, focuses on transitions in technology.

About Scale Computing
Scale Computing develops IT infrastructure products for small to medium-sized organizations based on its patented ICOS [Intelligent Clustered Operating System] technology. Since launching its initial scale-out storage solution in 2009, Scale has grown to over 1,100 deployments. Scale is currently expanding its footprint throughout the datacenter with what analysts are calling the industry's first hyperconverged architecture, HC3. Scale's HC3 seamlessly integrates storage, servers and virtualization into a scalable, turnkey infrastructure that's as easy to manage as a single server. Designed specifically for IT generalists, HC3 is ideal for those who have not yet adopted virtualization due to cost and complexity, enabling them to run highly available applications.

A critical component of any IoT project is what to do with all the data being generated. This data needs to be captured, processed, structured, and stored in a way to facilitate different kinds of queries. Traditional data warehouse and analytical systems are mature technologies that can be used to handle certain kinds of queries, but they are not always well suited to many problems, particularly when there is a need for real-time insights.

Your story is okay, but I don't like Demona. I just find her annoying.

I like your story, however, you've got to learn how to use a comma, Dude. Most of your sentences are run-ons, which makes it difficult to read. Writing is wonderful, and there is no such thing as natural talent. If you can learn how to use punctuation correctly, it would improve your stories immensely. I suggest, when you've finished writing a page, or a paragraph, to read it out loud. Your ear will catch what should be natural breaks in the sentence where commas and periods belong.
The other major stand out, that I noticed, was that you mix up your verb tenses. If you start out in past-tense (had, was, been, etc)then you need to keep it in past-tense and your verb suffix should almost always be 'ed; if you are using present-tense (is, are, have, etc) than your verbs should match with an 'ing ending.
I'd be willing to beta your stories if you would like. I admit, I can be seemingly harsh, but it would help you grow as a writer to find someone to look over your stories (whether it is me or someone else). I could also send you some guidelines, that I learned in my College English courses, on punctuation and the types of sentences; they have helped me personally in my writing abilities.
Keep writing! That's the only way to improve!

Tony Hawk's Underground 2: World Destruction Tour Tips
Their is a cheat for american wasteland where you can walk on water in the oil rig. You can do the same thing in the New Orleans level. Just go close to the water where the fary boat is and set your restart. Then get closer to the water without getting out of bounds and set your restart. Continue this until you will be able to walk in the water. You will not be able to go far but it is still fun.
