Paul Williams is an alcoholic.
Tracey Jackson is not.
But together, these two close friends have written "Gratitude and Trust," a book designed to apply the principles of the recovery movement to the countless people who are not addicts but nevertheless need effective help with their difficulties and pain.
Williams, the award-winning songwriter, actor, and performer, has embraced a traditional alcoholism recovery plan for more than two decades of sobriety. Jackson, a well-known TV and film writer and veteran of many years of traditional therapy has never been a drunk or a drug abuser, but she realized that many of the tenets of Williams's program could apply to her. In "Gratitude and Trust," Williams and Jackson ask: What happens to those who struggle with vexing problems yet are not full-blown addicts? Are there any lessons to be learned from the foundational and time-tested principles of the recovery movement?
Whether you re tethered to your phone or you turn to food for comfort; whether you re a perfectionist and can t let things go or are too afraid to fail to even try; whether you can find intimacy only on the Internet or you ve been involved in a string of nasty relationships the first step toward feeling better about yourself and your life is the realization that you are what's standing in your way. Williams and Jackson have designed a new, positive program, based on a half-dozen new affirmations, that can help conquer your vices, address personal dysfunction, and start to brighten the darkest moods. "Gratitude and Trust" is an essential, inspirational, and uplifting guide to identifying and changing maladaptive behaviors in order to uncover your most productive, healthiest self.

Nebraska to wear throwback Saturday on BTN
Bruce Thorson-USA TODAY Sports
Nebraska basketball isn't afraid to rock a throwback uniform. The team did so in last year's lone Big Ten tourney game, and it will do so again when it hosts Michigan State at 8 p.m. ET Saturday on BTN/BTN2Go. This year, the Huskers also have donned an adidas alternate, but this look has a lot more character. See a picture of the full uniform in this post.

Dative Covalent Bond (Coordinate Bond)
a. A covalent bond is formed by two atoms sharing a pair of electrons. The atoms are held together because the electron pair is attracted by both of the nuclei. In the formation of a simple covalent bond, each atom supplies one electron to the bond.
b. A co-ordinate bond (also called a dative covalent bond) is a covalent bond (a shared pair of electrons) in which both electrons come from the same atom. "Dative covalent bond" originates from the donation of an electron pair from one atom (or group of atoms) to an empty orbital on a second atom which is electron deficient. Bonds formed are identical to normal covalent bond.
c. The reaction between ammonia and hydrogen chloride
If these colourless gases are allowed to mix, a thick white smoke of solid ammonium chloride is formed.
Ammonium ions, NH4+, are formed by the transfer of a hydrogen ion from the hydrogen chloride to the lone pair of electrons on the ammonia molecule.
When the ammonium ion, NH4+, is formed, the fourth hydrogen is attached by a dative covalent bond, because only the hydrogen's nucleus is transferred from the chlorine to the nitrogen. The hydrogen's electron is left behind on the chlorine to form a negative chloride ion.
Once the ammonium ion has been formed it is impossible to tell any difference between the dative covalent and the ordinary covalent bonds. Although the electrons are shown differently in the diagram, there is no difference between them in reality.
d. Representing co-ordinate bonds
In simple diagrams, a co-ordinate bond is shown by an arrow. The arrow points from the atom donating the lone pair to the atom accepting it.
e. Dissolving hydrogen chloride gas in water to make hydrochloric acid
Something similar happens. A hydrogen ion (H+) is transferred from the chlorine to one of the lone pairs on the oxygen atom.
The H3O+ ion is variously called the hydroxonium ion.
f. The reaction between ammonia and boron trifluoride, BF3
Boron trifluoride as a compound which does not have a noble gas structure around the boron atom. The boron only has 3 pairs of electrons in its bonding level, whereas there would be room for 4 pairs. BF3 is described as being electron deficient.
The lone pair on the nitrogen of an ammonia molecule can be used to overcome that deficiency, and a compound is formed involving a co-ordinate bond.
g. The structure of aluminium chloride
Aluminium chloride sublimes (turns straight from a solid to a gas) at 178°C. If it contained ions it would have a very high melting and boiling point because of the strong attractions between the positive and negative ions. The implication is that it must be covalent. The dots-and-crosses diagram shows only the outer electrons.
AlCl3, like BF3, is electron deficient. There is likely to be a similarity, because aluminium and boron are in the same group of the Periodic Table, as are fluorine and chlorine.
Measurements of the relative formula mass of aluminium chloride show that its formula in the solid is not AlCl3, but Al2Cl6. It exists as a dimer (two molecules joined together). The bonding between the two molecules is co-ordinate, using lone pairs on the chlorine atoms.
Quick Checks : Can you draw similar diagrams for the molecules of carbon monoxide, CO and nitric acid, HNO3?

Ivan Sekretarev, File, Associated Press
PEREVALNYE, Ukraine — In the eastern reaches of Ukraine's Crimean Peninsula, witnesses report advanced Russian surface-to-air missiles being offloaded and readied for movement. At a base near the naval port of Sevastopol, an air force commander takes to YouTube to appeal for clear orders of engagement with the Russian forces who have occupied much of his base. In a naval base near regional capital Simferopol, a commander reports feeling like a hostage, and fearing what will come in the next few days.
On the eve of Sunday's referendum on whether the Black Sea peninsula should break away from Ukraine and join Russia, Crimeans of all ethnicities waited with deepening anguish and fear about the vote that at best, will yield months or years of uncertainty, and at worst, will spark war.
Among those facing the greatest and most fraught uncertainty was that of Ukraine's military forces on the peninsula, who have been hemmed in by heavily armed Russian troops and warned by the region's pro-Russian leader that they would be considered "illegal" if they didn't surrender.
With the new government in Kiev struggling to respond to threatened Russian invasion in the east, build international support and stave off economic disaster, soldiers and sailors have lamented openly that they don't know they're supposed to be doing. And, more importantly, what they're going to do if shooting breaks out.
Russia effectively took control of Crimea, where it has a large naval base, late last month after Moscow-friendly President Viktor Yanukovych fled the country in the wake of months of protests. The Kremlin says he was the victim of a coup and refuses to recognize the authorities who took over.
The head of Crimea's unrecognized Russian-backed government, Sergei Aksyonov, has said Ukrainian solders will be allowed to surrender peacefully, leave Crimea altogether or resign from the armed forces.
In a message on Twitter, he warned that Ukrainian units that refuse to swear allegiance to the new Crimean authorities after Sunday's referendum would be considered "illegal armed formations."
Ukrainian officials have said more than 20,000 Russian troops are in Crimea. Many are believed to be under the command of the Black Sea Fleet, which is based in Sevastopol under a lease deal with Ukraine.
Against this backdrop, Ukraine's outmatched armed forces have been stuck in the middle, harassed and blockaded in bases by masked gunmen and Russian soldiers wearing no identifying emblems, but often driving military trucks bearing Russian license plates. Ukrainian officers and servicemen have complained about not only being outgunned, but also about having no clear direction or orders from Kiev, where a new government is struggling to take shape and to respond to the Russian threats.
In the video made earlier this week, Col. Yuly Mamchur of the 204th Tactical Aviation Brigade sits with four other officers and appeals for direction from his commanders: the Belbek military airfield he commands is under pressure from Russian forces that have cordoned it off, and he fears his men may have to start shooting.
"Each day, we receive ultimatums of an increasingly harsh nature from the armed forces of the Russian Federation. In the interest of averting the possibility of armed clashes I appeal to you in the nearest possible term to issue clear instructions to commanders," Mamchur says in the video posted to YouTube. "If no such corresponding order is issued, we will be forced to act under the general orders of the Ukrainian armed forces and open fire. We are ready to fulfill our orders to the very end."
The video appeal by Mamchur was echoed Friday by a group of senior generals, including several former defense ministers, who released an open letter to Russian President Vladimir Putin to withdraw Russian forces from Ukraine.

SAN FRANCISCO -- The Los Angeles Dodgers did what they set out to do. They proved they can beat the San Francisco Giants head to head and they reclaimed first place. Not a bad weekend by the Bay, a three-game sweep at AT&T Park that ended with Sunday night's tense 4-3 win.
The Dodgers now lead the NL West by a 1½ games, a crucial cushion with the team still in the midst of its most challenging stretch of schedule this season.
How it happened: Jake Peavy pitched well a day after getting traded to San Francisco from the Boston Red Sox, but Hyun-Jin Ryu pitched a little bit better and the Dodgers used some speed and craftiness to beat Peavy. They scored three runs in the fifth inning, with Carl Crawford's triple down the right-field line the key blow. Ryu pitched six strong innings, giving up three runs and six hits and striking out seven batters.
The Dodgers' bullpen, much-maligned, had the right pitchers lined up after getting most of the week off. J.P. Howell, Brian Wilson -- who entered the game to heavy booing at his former home stadium -- and Kenley Jansen sewed up the final three innings without much incident. Jansen struck out the side in the ninth.
Hits: Dee Gordon got on base three times, none of them via the traditional walk or hit. He reached on Dan Uggla's error, got hit in the foot by a breaking ball and reached on a strikeout and wild pitch. Those were largely the product of luck, but what Gordon did with one of the chances was all about opportunism and speed. When another ball got away from Buster Posey and he threw to first to get Adrian Gonzalez, Gordon sprinted for home and slid in safely, scoring on the fielder's choice. It was a bold gambit and it sparked the Dodgers' rally.
Misses: The only impetus for trading Matt Kemp at the moment is to free up whatever money the Dodgers could and to alleviate whatever rift exists between him and the coaching staff. The outfield situation is as good as it has been all season. Kemp has looked comfortable playing right field, his original position, and he has been productive at the plate. In his past 16 games, he is batting .370. He's now batting .277 on the season with an above-average .775 OPS.
Stat of the game: The Giants scored three runs while Peavy was in the game. In his past eight starts in Boston, he got no more than two runs of support.
Up next: The Dodgers are off Monday before beginning a three-game series with the Atlanta Braves at Dodger Stadium on Tuesday night.

Land of Fire & Water (Enter)
The Big Island of Hawaii is a land of geographic contrasts. This massive island, (compared to the rest) is the youngest in the chain of seven, and the only one with an active volcano. Recent massive black lava flows (1983 to the current day) descend the volcano's of Mauna Loa and Kilauea continuing to transform the landscape. The tonal qualities shown both from the volcanic dry side, to the towering waterfalls show an incredible geographic contrast in small place. It truly is a land of fire and water.
Southern Sojourn (Enter)
Hell's Acre (Enter)
Over the years I've had the opportunity to visit parts of the south, but I never had the time to explore. In the summer of 2009 & 2011 I took some time and roamed the back roads of the Carolinas, Georgia and Lousiana. I found a fascinating country where some areas were booming, and others abandoned to their poverty. Places where traditions seem odd or funny and yet others where it appeared time had stood still. It is a wonderful place, where the next hill or turn in the road could bring a smile or perhaps a tear.
From the outside it looked like another old warehouse in a former industrial center in Pinedale, California. Historically it had a more sordid past. A series of 10 warehouses were once Assembly Centers for thousands of Japanese of American ancestry in the first days of WWII. In 2007 the last of these buildings was demolished, so I took one last look inside seeking a visual link to a darker chapter in our nation's past
Rio de los Santos Reyes (Enter)
Ronald Reagan Campaigning (Enter)
The Kings River that flows through Central California and is a river of distinction in several ways. One, it is divided into three unique and deliberate regions with specific functions and issues. It is also only one of two major rivers in the world that does not flow to the ocean. The other being the Jordan in the Middle East. These images focus on the many uses, issues and beauty of this river environment. How man has used it, reclaimed it, and at times, abused it.
The Harbor (Enter) Now available as an E-book
The Harbor is a place of contrasts. The unique simplicity of its purpose is a sharp departure from the complexity of the souls who live here. It is against this backdrop that the people's lives intersect at The Harbor. They all seek it, some find peace, some succeed, and some self-destruct. The contrasts are a glimpse of all of us, seeking much the same thing.....a place to be 'safe'.
In June of 1978, then former governor of California Ronald Reagan attended a campaign barbeque held in his honor at the Paso Robles Fairgrounds. The afternoon was blazing hot. Activities called for a rodeo, BBQ and speeches from Republican dignitaries. Reagan played his role elegantly, riding a horse in the mini parade to the rodeo, and with wife Nancy, covering all the political bases. Reagan was in his element!
San Miguel Shootout (Enter)
On a hot summer morning in 1977, Marvin Martin, barricaded himself inside a small house in what used to be a motel and fired on San Luis Obispo County Sheriff's deputies. After a three hour standoff, tear gas was fired into the building, which quickly caught the structure on fire. Martin came out firing. Deputies responded, mortally wounding Martin who, continued to reach for his weapon. It was one of the first cases in the country that appeared to be a "suicide by cop".
Diablo Canyon Protests (Enter)
Abney Cemetery, London England (Enter)
In the mid 1970's through the late 80's Pacific, Gas and Electric's Diablo Canyon Nuclear plant became a flash point of protest. Thousands made their way to the gates of the plant to hold 1960's style rallies. Some reached the plant from the ocean, others hiked overland the seven miles to hoist their signs near the huge containment domes. Those at the gates sang songs chanted of the evils of nuclear power, while others taunted P,G&E officials as the National Guard stood by. Many were arrested and eventually all left leaving after several days.
Tucked away in a suburb of London lies Abney Cemetery. An abandoned, 30-acre site of overgrown, neglected graves, a Gothic Chapel and a maze of pathways. Thousands of headstones, some dating to the 1800's have been desecrated and left in disarray. Many of the graves date from WWI, or from the great flu epidemic of 1917. Today the land has been placed in a conservancy to protect it from looting and general vandalism. The Chapel in the center shows evidence of the Victorian era with an outside entry designed for a horse drawn hearse. Researchers of the paranormal roam the grounds seeking contact with the spirits. It is an eerie place.

Lovely dish, much enjoyed, you cant go wrong with spaghetti and tomato sauce :) Thank you, Paula, made for International Agents of QUEST, Italy
I loved this, will make it again, added lots of parmesan and a little mozzarella to it as well because i love mozzarella with tomatoes..
I liked this - the black olives kind of freaked my hubby out a little bit... not my usual tomato sauce. I liked the heat from the red peppers, too... nice change of pace, quick and easy! I used 1 teaspoon each of dried basil & oregano as I didn't have any fresh on hand. Thanks for posting! Made for Photo Tag.

Skip to comments.Detroit schools try to avert crippling student loss (Strike Costs 25,000 Students, $190 Million)
Posted on 09/22/2006 10:38:08 AM PDT by Mr. Brightside
Detroit, Michigan
(my summary)
Detroit schools were closed due to an illegal teachers strike.
The parents revolted and 25,000 kids left the district.
Now the Detroit school district will lose $190 million in state aid.
Article here:
Actions have consequences.
The government, will simply raise taxes to cover the shortfall instead of sueing the unions out of business.
A mother of a friend of mine used to work for the DPS, and the stories she told would curl your hair. Good riddance, I say.
Sue the teachers' Union for the losses. It's the "American Way"
Well there seemed to have been around 25,000 mature adults in Detroit prior to the strike. I wonder what took them so long to figure the Detroit schools were organized madness??
BTW, only about 20 percent of Detroit's freshmen graduate.
If ever I've heard a justification for ending the public school system....
Imagine what they would say if only 20 percent of the homeschoolers graduated.
this reflects a parenting problem, also.
I am in the Detroit area(Lincoln Park)......here is my understanding from local news reports: State aid is based on X amount of $ per student enrolled on a certain day ......fewer students=less $ ........sounds like they did it to themselves
the consequences of 50 years of liberalism are devastating. definition of insanity = continuing to do something that has proven not to work.
Detroit has become Cuba.
But all the teachers and all the administrators and all the coaches will continue to be paid and they will continue to complain about not making enough money.
Stupid In America - John Stossel
Of course the teacher union head denies they bear any responsibility at all.....
Maybe this kind of sudden "shock treatment" which will require dramatic layoffs could be an opportunity for reform, but I seriously doubt it. Since the very people deciding about the layoffs will be a big part of the problem, the worst hacks and deadwood will be kept on, administrators with fat salaries, etc.
Detroit as a whole seems to be in terminal decline, and this is just one more symptom of the disaster.
The very idea that teachers have a "right" to strike is insanity....
Should all be summarily fired.
How ironic that we can't post from a site called "freep."
The parents left the schools?? hahaha, there is nothing like capitalism. You provide the service. We pay for it. If we don't like it, we take our business elsewhere. You suffer.
I like it. Simple but so straight-forward.
We in the peoples democratik republik of michigan already pay some of the highest taxes in the land.....
Yes, each school gets $4000 (or more) per student per year. If they don't have the enrollment, they don't get the money. The clients FLED. Close the school. Perfect solution.
You don't think there's Islamo-cash for the taking?
You're not paying attention.
That's the northern border with seaports.
@$$hole, phuqin' NEA.
Ya' let us down Newt ... Pubbies ... we were contenders !!!
>> Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick <<
So, the mayor is Irish?
(just silliness.)
It's worse than that. Detroit is becoming even more a caricature of itself. I just couldn't be happier than when a union's decisions blow up like a grenade in the small intestine. I hope the untrained animals get what's coming to them.
I didn't know street people paid taxes.
Awesome! Can we please have another teacher's strike? ANYTHING that shrinks the public school system is a good thing.
You can post a link
Everybody has a right strike, but nobody has a right to remain employed at a job they went on strike from.
"Awesome! Can we please have another teacher's strike? ANYTHING that shrinks the public school system is a good thing."
They will just transfer to other public schools, you have that option in Michigan and the $6700 in funding per child goes to the new school.
No, you have a right to walk off your job.. you don't have a right to do that and then claim you are still employed.
The school district should sue the teachers union for $190 million.
Not if Dick DeVos wins the governor's race. The Republicans in the Michigan Legislature have proposed a bill to make it easier to assess fines to the illegal striking teachers. They will each have to pay a fine equivalent to a day's pay for every day they remain on strike.
That ought to shorten their strikes.
I don't know about that. The Eastside is rapidly filling up with Chinese - most of them are coming from New York because they found out how cheap they can buy a house in Detroit. There is an enclave of them in the Greiner/Outer Drive/Gratiot area and it is growing all the time.
I appreciate the details but I don't think that Detroit News/Free Press is allowed to be posted here.
I don't know if FR doesn't want their trash, or if Gannet has a copywright issue with the stories being posted.
All schools should be private, K-12 to college to graduate schools. The government should get out of the education business. Parents should incorporate new private elementary, middle and high schools, removing states and counties from the business of educating their children. Remove government subsidies and teachers' unions.
It just burns me up that the inbreds get all this airplay and ink and we banter and discuss the this, that and the other and all the time ..in the back of my mind .. I hear the word marching ...
Incrementalism ....
Incrementalism ....
Incrementalism !
I actually heard one of the strikers say that this strike was for the children. What a load of pooey.
I did a no-no with the Detroit News article at reply #36, sorry 'bout that.
Why do they need the money if they don't have kids to teach?
Thats one of the problems. There's not many tax payers left in Detroit.
Source please?
Actually, its more like $7,450 to $11,631 per pupil, Cite
That x 25,000 is a crippling amount of money to add to the $105,000,000 deficit that sparked the conflict in the first place. Yet another example of an idiot union slitting its own members throats by refusing to see past next weeks paycheck. Its like Delphi all over again.
I have a teacher relative.
That person told me if the attendance falls below a certain figure(IIRC it is 96%), they actually went out on the street and dragged people in to bolster the attendance rolls.

This study involved the collection and examination of several facility elements through a facility audit. Data was collected on nostalgia inducing elements by using facility and renovation documents/blueprints and announcements, archived data, published websites, facility visits, and interaction/contact with front office employees. The collected information led the researchers to determine that MLB and NFL teams use specific strategies or tactics within their facilities to create or evoke nostalgia. Furthermore, there are opportunities for each organization to attract more live and remote spectators to their venue and organizational-sponsored events in order to establish or maintain membership in their fan nation through methods which center on enhancing the nostalgic experience.

The Healthy Kids Colorado Survey (HKCS) collects health information biennially, every odd year, from Colorado public school students. A unified version was launched in 2013 that consolidated multiple needs for youth health data. The unified HKCS is sponsored by three state agencies* and allows for both state and regional-level estimates, while reducing student-survey requests to schools. Regional estimates and reports are available at healthykidscolo.org.
The 2015 HKCS administration has concluded. 2015 data will be available in the summer of 2016. Thank you to all who participated! Please contact the Healthy Kids Colorado Survey team at firstname.lastname@example.com for further details.

BEST BETS: "Jessica Jones," "Big Trouble/Escape from New York" & More October 2016 Highlights
Comic Books
No sooner does The Comics Reporter's Tom Spurgeon return from hiatus (welcome back, Tom!) than he breaks news of an exciting, and potentially controversial, new comic from Drawn & Quarterly: Jerusalem: Chronicles from the Holy City, the latest in cartoonist Guy Delisle's series of graphic memoirs-slash-travelogues. Why controversial, you ask? Because Delisle's travelogues have all chronicled everyday life under infamously repressive regimes — North Korea in Pyongyang, China in Shenzhen, and "Myanmar" in Burma Chronicles. I have a feeling that many people won't feel super comfortable with Israel keeping that sort of company. On the other hand, the book takes place in part during the three-week Gaza War that resulted in a 1100-plus-to-13 Palestinian-to-Israeli death ratio, so perhaps even Israel supporters could concede that the war-is-hell harshness of this conflict is in keeping with Delisle's past efforts.
The book is due in Spring 2012, with an initial first printing of 30,000 copies. Click the link for more details, including what publisher and editor-in-chief Chris Oliveros has to say about the project.
Stitches: A Memoir
by David Small
WW Norton, 336 pages, $24.95.
by Ken Dahl
Secret Acres, 208 pages, $18.
I sometimes suspect that part of the reason some critics (if I can use that term) are hostile towards the recent spate of comic book (sorry, graphic novel) memoirs is due to a mistrust of the genre itself. There's a tendency when someone is chronicling a dramatic, personal event, to exult praise merely for inherent drama of the story, particularly if it's a traumatic one, than the skill in the telling. Some folks, in other words, get swept up in the idea of the story itself and the bravery of the person in coming forward to tell it, and ignore whether or not the work succeeds as art.
Certainly the success of books like Fun Home and Persepolis has resulted in publishers unleashing a number of bad or mediocre memoirs on the public. So perhaps it's not surprising some folks are wary when a buzz-heavy memoir gets released.
Two such books hit the stands recently, David Small's National Book Award-nominated (but kids only!) Stitches and the Ken Dahl's Monsters. The good news is that both books deserve at least some, if not all, of the positive attention they've been getting.
Name another graphic memoir that has readers raving about how it motivated them to lose weight or change their diet. A quick scan of the Amazon reviews for Carol Lay's The Big Skinny: How I Changed My Fattitude reveals a sampling of folks who praise the book for helping them diet. As noted at the book's website: "Cartoonist Carol Lay has had her work published everywhere from The New Yorker and The Wall Street Journal to More, Salon, and MAD Magazine. Her weekly comic strip, WayLay, has appeared in many papers here and abroad including The Hartford Courant, The San Francisco Examiner, L.A. Weekly, Salon.com, The National Post, and Hong Kong Weekly, to name a few." In a recent email interview, I was able to get Lay to discuss the book, the challenges of being a cartoonist in a struggling economy and other matters.
Tim O'Shea: The Big Skinny initially got started as a pitch to a weight-loss clinic that evolved into your book–have any weight loss clinics contacted you since the book has been published?
Carol Lay: My idea was actually started as a pitch to do a continuing comic strip for Weight Watchers. They didn't bite, but I just kept coming back to the idea. So a couple of years later I took time off to write and draw a proposal for a book. THAT worked out. But, no, I have not yet been contacted by weight loss clinics, perhaps because I lost weight and maintained that loss on my own. (You don't have to spend money on packaged food or weekly meetings to lose weight! In fact, I've found that eating healthy, nutritious foods is cheaper than maintaining a "chunky" diet in the long run.)

Resuming the final morning on 48 for two after rain affected day three, the hosts raced to 333 for three before declaring to bring about an early lunch break.
Nash top-scored with an unbeaten 167 while Hamilton Brown was 126 not out when Sussex called a halt to their innings, allowing Yorkshire a reasonable crack at bringing about a result in two sessions.
At Derby, leaders Durham were all out for 325 for a first-innings lead of 27.
Derbyshire reached 22 for one at lunch but the match appears destined to end in a draw.
Somerset were set 133 for victory at Taunton after ending Surrey's second innings on 197 this morning.
Resuming on 97 for four, the visitors amassed just 100 more runs from their final six wickets, with Craig Meschede's four for 43 the pick of the Somerset attack.
Somerset reached lunch on 13 without loss, 120 runs away from victory.
The match between third-placed Middlesex and fourth-from-bottom Nottinghamshire at Lord's was delayed until 1.10pm due to rain. The match appears certain to end in a draw after the third day was called off without a ball being bowled.
In Division Two, Leicestershire reached 152 for five in reply to Lancashire's first-innings 453 for seven declared in a rain-affected clash at Old Trafford, while Worcestershire improved to 284 for six in reply to Hampshire's 428 in another rain-hit encounter.
Lancashire's title rivals Essex were again another side frustrated by the weather as they pushed for victory over Kent at Canterbury.
Kent began the day 56 runs in arrears on 113 for four after being forced to follow on, but no play was possible this morning as the poor weather continued.

Demand side management (DSM) is one of the important functions in a smart grid that allows customers to make informed decisions regarding their energy consumption, and helps the energy providers reduce the peak load demand and reshape the load profile. This results in increased sustainability of the smart grid, as well as reduced overall operational cost and carbon emission levels. Most of the existing demand side management strategies used in traditional energy management systems employ system specific techniques and algorithms. In addition, the existing strategies handle only a limited number of controllable loads of limited types. This paper presents a demand side management strategy based on load shifting technique for demand side management of future smart grids with a large number of devices of several types. The day-ahead load shifting technique proposed in this paper is mathematically formulated as a minimization problem. A heuristic-based Evolutionary Algorithm (EA) that easily adapts heuristics in the problem was developed for solving this minimization problem. Simulations were carried out on a smart grid which contains a variety of loads in three service areas, one with residential customers, another with commercial customers, and the third one with industrial customers. The simulation results show that the proposed demand side management strategy achieves substantial savings, while reducing the peak load demand of the smart grid.

I'm running a live version of d.s.l. on a CD on my computer in an attempt to recover files from a Windows XP installation. Reading tutorials, I opened emelFM to locate the drives. I went to /mnt/ and the folders listed were "auto", "cdrom", "floppy", "hd", "test", and another called "unionfs_goose". None of them had anything listed in them.
I can't get files from my drive if the hard drive cannot be mounted. I haven't found anything (that worked) that could address this specific issue (i.e. nobody has this problem). What can I do to fix it?

Bacardi? Disgusting.
sure he doens't work aT THE wEEKLY OR THE sTRANGER?
Hey Dan, give him a break. There is many a time where I couldn't remember my previous 36 hours too.
I probably was even soliciting dances. The threatening comments, not so much.
There Is No Religion Without Hypocrisy.
That's a great name, though. The Rhodenizer. From now on, can we say that a clergy member exposed as a lying hypocrite and sex fiend has been "Rhodenized"?
Hey, he's a paster. His congregation will forgive him the minute he steps back across his church's threshhold, and his "transgression" will be chalked up to the work of Satan, teh gays, and Godless, librul Democrats, so everything is completely copacetic.
Honestly, he sounds like my kind of guy.
Perhaps violations of church morality that are also violations of the law should have twice the penalty. I love the way these religious types want to tell everyone else how to act so lets double the penalty for them. Lets see, how about if we make it against the law for "christians" to get birth control. No, wait, who needs more of them? I know, since they don't believe in evolution, let's make it against the law to receive any medical cures that use DNA. After all, DNA is the evolutionary track record. Or how about a law that says no cures from stem cell research for "christians". Let's impose a little what's good for the goose.
Wait. He cried? What a loser.
Drinking, fighting, and making threatening remarks - isn't that normal behaviour for a right-wing pastor?
Drinking, fighting, making threatening remarks and chasing pussy. There's your complete list of normal behavior for a right-wing pastor.
He was just trying to touch them deep on the inside so they would feel comfortable when he invited them to church.
It is a conspiracy just like those guys who were quietly talking on the bus to get people to go to Mars Hill.
At least he's not molesting children (as far as we know)
@13 - he does that on weekends.
He just sounds like he had a breakdown. Perhaps from his own oppression of himself?
He wasn't breaking any laws, so I don't think this is a huge deal as much as I kinda feel bad for the guy.
Okay, he might've been EXTREMELY irresponsible by just leaving and allowing taxpayers to pay for an FBI search.
However, booze and tits does not a monster make! At least he wasn't fondling minors or drug trafficking!
Jesus told me he's disappointed.

I am exasperated. I tried to follow your clear directions to verify my blog site on Google and must have messed up. Now, when I try to re-start the process, it shows an old image of my blog (since revised) and doesn't allow me to complete the verification process.
I tried the simple two-click method (which I now can't find)and couldn't find any "Google Verification" listing under "Settings" (as it said I would in the left sidebar).
I am desperate. My blog is growing quite well and I have a job prospect upcoming as a blog consultant (using WordPress). I really need the SEO power of Google. Can anyone help? Please?

NOAA is on track to launch its Joint Polar Satellite System in early 2017, agency administrator Kathryn Sullivan told a House panel last week, but there is no estimate for the length of a potential gap in satellite coverage that could occur if current systems fail before the launch takes place.
"I'm not even focusing on what the best guess is, because it's all so fluid. Statistical analyses can be slanted or come up with all sorts of answers," said Sullivan at a May 1 hearing of the House Science, Space and Technology Environment Subcommittee. "I'm focusing on managing the asset we have to protract its life, and stick the launch date," she said.
NOAA is seeking a $95.4 million increase in the JPSS-1 budget for fiscal 2015, and an additional $39.9 million for its Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite R-Series program. Overall, the agency is seeking $5.5 billion in funding.
The Government Accountability Office warned of a potential gap in polar satellite coverage in the 2013 edition of its high-risk list. Thomas Young, a former NASA scientist and chair of independent review commissioned by NOAA, said last November that despite an effective mitigation program there is still "an unacceptably high risk of a gap that could be months or years in duration."
Sullivan said that NOAA was examining what additional data sources could be added to the agency's forecasting toolkit in the event of a coverage gap, to lessen the impact on weather reporting. One of these is the Constellation Observing System for Meteorology, Ionosphere and Climate system, a partnership with Taiwan dubbed COSMIC-2, which is scheduled to deploy beginning in 2016. Sullivan said that "having COSMIC-2 on orbit providing those data was highlighted in our independent report as one of the most effective things we could do to lessen degradation in forecasts" created by a gap in polar satellite coverage.
NOAA is also facing IT headwinds from the planned sale of IBM's x86 server division to Lenovo, a Chinese tech firm. NOAA has funding in place to acquire a weather supercomputer from IBM, but the potential for Chinese ownership has raised red flags, and the procurement has not moved forward amid a review by the Treasury. In the meantime, Sullivan observed, NOAA has lagged behind European weather forecasters in some cases because of their superior supercomputing speed and performance.
NOAA recently announced the successful test of a key JPSS-1 component, the Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System, which measures light and heat reflected by the Earth for use in forecasting events such as the El Nino and La Nina weather systems.
The agency is still awaiting delivery of four principal JPSS-1 components, including an infrared imaging system, a microwave and infrared sounder that capture temperature data, and an ozone mapping tool.

St. Louis-based Post Holdings (NYSE: POST ) , owner of the Post brand, and maker of such familiar boxed cereals as Shredded Wheat, Grape Nuts, and Honeycomb, announced Thursday that, in order to improve efficiency of operations, and "to better position the Company for future growth," it may have to close its manufacturing facility in Modesto, California.
Closure would necessarily affect the 140 employees at the plant. Post will consult with union representatives at the plant before making a final decision. The company expects to know which way it will go by the end of April.
"Excess capacity" is the problem, explained Post President and Chief Operating Officer Terence E. Block. "This initiative, if we proceed, would provide the increased efficiency necessary to compete in today's environment," he said.
Post shares reacted negatively to the news, falling 0.4% in Thursday trading to close at $42.01.

Cast: Monica Mattos, Laura Lion, Carmen Collins, Monica Sweetheart
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
Any title that opens up with a pair of naked performers already engaged in oral action is bound to capture our attention. It's practically a miracle: no ridiculous ad-libbed "scenarios," no disingenuous tease with girls making google-eyes at the camera. Just good ol' wall-to-wall rump humpin'! (What a concept. Could there possibly be a name for this exciting new genre?)
Assalicious brings arousing gaping A2M exploits to the table. There's enough variety (by way of bodies and locations) to keep a viewer's interest/cock from flagging. Those who like a big fake-titty gal will be pleased with the last three scenes - some may prefer Monica Sweetheart and Rose (a redhead!) who combine all-natural "girl next door" sensuality with a streak of uninhibited playfulness.

|"X-Men Forever" #1 on sale in June
When they say you canât go home again, itâs often a shorthand way to tell a person that after leaving a special place or moment in their life, it wonât seem the same when they return.
But wouldnât it be great in certain circumstances to go back to something at the exact moment you left? Well, writer Chris Claremont is getting this exact opportunity with the upcoming âX-Men Forever.â
Back in 1991, Claremont wrote three issues of the then-new âX-Menâ title before creative differences caused him to leave the series. Now, he gets to pick up where he left off and show fans what his creative vision was and where he planned to take Marvelâs merry mutants.
As you can imagine, readers had questions when this new book was announced. Thankfully, X-POSITION is here to help you get them answered! Welcome home, Chris Claremont!
CBR: Caleb Warren begins our little question procession today with some kind words along with inquiries about two Claremont series â âGeNextâ and âX-Men Forever.â Let see if we can help him outâ¦
First of all, I'd just like to tell you how much I admire and respect you and your work. Secondly, are there any elements from the X-books established after you left that you plan on using for âX-Men Forever?â
CHRIS CLAREMONT: Firstly, thank you for your kind words, theyâre much appreciated. Secondly, given the premise of âForeverâ â that weâre picking up right where I left off in âX-Menâ #3 â the events you refer to havenât happened yet. This world, the characters â indeed the very concept of the X-Men team itself â are all about to undergo a dynamic and ongoing evolution. How it affects the characters themselves, and the future that lies ahead of them, is something the readers will see as the book progresses.
|Pages from "X-Men Forever" #1
And regarding âGeNext,â it may just be that I'm slow on the uptake, but can you please explain Megan Summers' powers?
Megan Summers is a high-order world-class telepath, just like her Mom. (Unlike her Mom, she doesnât turn into diamond.)
Manuel Rodriguez is next, and he was wondering if thereâs a doctor in the house?
You have showed quite an affinity to writing and giving a voice to the âforgottenâ X-Men member Dr. Cecilia Reyes over the years. Since she happens to be a somewhat prominent character in âGeNext,â is there any chance of her children joining this future incarnation of the X-Men or introducing her in âX-Men Forever?"
Thereâs always a chance. I like Cecilia and, being a Doctor, sheâd certainly be of value to the team. The challenge for the series is that thereâs just this one book to chronicle the teamâs adventures â which means, regrettably, there simply isnât room to touch base with everyone I (or readers) might like. Cliché as it might sound, weâll all have to wait and see.
As for âGeNext,â since the story is being told in a series of (hopefully ongoing) miniseries, there isnât a whole lot of spare room. This difference, Iâm afraid, falls between what seems cool and whatâs actually practical/doable. Hope this helps.
Itâs Benjamin Ringâs turn, and he had some casting requests as well.
I'm a huge fan of your work and am very excited for âX-Men Foreverâ so we can see what you truly intended! What can we look forward to with Psylocke and Dazzler? There was no Revanche at this time, and Dazzler had not yet gone to Mojoworld with Longshot. Will we see some very divergent paths for these characters outside of what we got under other writers in the 90s, or are they not really on the radar?
|Pages from "X-Men Forever" #1
Thanks for your kind words, Ben. I very much look forward to hearing your response to the book itself when the run itself starts. As for these characters, Betsy is back in the UK with Brian. Dazzler, I suspect, is still on the âroadâ with Longshot. As for what the future has in store for them, youâll simply have to wait and see.
Weâve covered quite a few mutants thus far, but Matt Platis was wondering how the humans will fareâ¦
Will âX-Men Foreverâ include characters outside of the main X-Universe? Could we see the classic Avengers (not the âNew,â âMightyâ or âDarkâ ones running around) appear?
Valeria Kementari had a couple of queries. Letâs see if we can appease her curious nature.
Will we ever see Caledonia from your great FF run ever again?
Doubtful, Iâm afraid, since she was created after the âX-Menâ #3 cut-off. But this is comics, remember, anythingâs possible.
Will there be mentions of the other X-teams out there from the â90s period in âX-Men Forever?â
David Branson has a few ideas heâd like to see followed up in âForever.â I wonder if his wishes will come trueâ¦
|Pages from "X-Men Forever" #1
I love your workâ¦and I love your âclassicâ alternate worlds. I am glad we have two of them from you coming up with both âGeNextâ and âX-Men Forever.â I have a couple of requests though:
Can you let Mariko and Logan finally get married without all the tragedy? I think Logan deserves some happiness given how depressing his life has been the last few years in the 616 universe. Similarly, I'd love to see some of the things you didn't get to develop continue on, like Kurt and Amanda, Kitty and Peter, etc.
Thank you for the kind words. As for your questions, however, Iâm afraid youâll just have to wait and see. Youâll start getting some answers pretty much right off the bat.
Joshua sent in a handful of questions that covered topics other fans were curious about too!
If the âNew Exilesâ had continued, where would we have seen the characters go from there? Would Psylocke still have played an active role on that team?
âNew Exilesâ was a lot of fun but its future now rests in the very capable hands of the bookâs editor, Mark Paniccia. Your questions are best directed at him and the seriesâ current creative team.
I keep noticing that in preview art for âX-Men Foreverâ we see several X-Men except for Psylocke, Banshee, Forge, Colossus, Iceman and Archangel. Will we be seeing these characters in the series? And am I right to assume we will see Shadowcat and Nightcrawler in the book even though they were not members at the time?
Simplest answers: yes, weâll be touching base with all the X-canon characters over the course of time, though perhaps not necessarily in the way folks expect. As regards Kitty and Kurt, their presence will be defined in the first arc.
|Pages from "X-Men Forever" #1
Will Jubilee have a role in âX-Men Forever?â I always wondered why she wasn't in your starting story arc for "X-Men" Vol. 1. Why didn't you include her in that story? Was she intended by you to be a full member of the X-Men as seen after your absence?
Iâm afraid youâll just have to wait and see. Life for the X-Men is about to undergo some radical and substantive changes which will affect them all to a significant extent. What happens next is something readers will have to discover as the teamsâ lives go along.
So with âX-Men Foreverâ being set from the early âX-Menâ time period, will we see Rogue with Ms. Marvelâs superstrength, speed, flight and endurance? Please say yes!
As of page 1 of âX-Men Foreverâ #1, Rogueâs abilities are what they were in #âs 1-3. However, by the end of the issue, things for a number of characters will change, dramatically. From that point on, everything about their lives is up for grabs.
Here are two quick queries from Mustafe Abdulle. How about some quick answers?
While they are not from your era, will any of the present New X-Men show up in âX-Men Forever?â
Doubtful, Iâm afraid.
Will deaths occur of longtime X-Men in this new series?
|Pages from "X-Men Forever" #1
Finishing things up for us today is Sharif Youssef, who wanted to share his thoughts about a storyline from days gone byâ¦
I'm really excited about âX-Men Forever.â I remember the many hints you dropped that Tessa wasn't fully loyal to the Hellfire Club back in the day. Now that you have a chance to pick up your story where you left off, is there any chance we'll see Tessa reprise her role as Xavier's agent? I'd love to her story with Xavier and Shaw developed further as well as any ambivalence she might have about spying on one of the men who saved her life.
Sage keeps her own council. You should also not forget that as far as the X-Men are concerned, the Hellfire Club represents one of their most formidable adversaries. Emmaâs still very much the White Queen and in no way even a nascent hero. As for whatâs ahead for Shaw and Charley, thatâs a (potential) story for the future.
For now, the focus of the series is on the presentation of new and increasingly more dangerous adversaries â which may well force the X-Men, and Hellfire Club (and by extension the New Mutants and Hellions) to form an alliance simply for their own survival. And wonât that be fun?
That concludes our little fireside X-chat for the day, but weâll be back next week to do a bit of celebrating! If youâve seen the latest Hollywood news, âX-Men Origins: Wolverineâ was huge at the box office last weekend; so what better way to acknowledge this than to have Jason Aaron, writer of âWeapon X,â join us to answer your questions about Wolverineâs newest series!
Channel your inner mutant, type up some thought-provoking questions, and send them my way as quickly as you can. And please, put an âX-Positionâ in the subject line. If you donât, you might have to witness my poor imitation of Wolverineâs berserker rageâ¦Snikt! Snikt!

When Buying a Bullpen, It's Better to Go Cheap
When your team is protecting a one-run lead in the ninth inning, the guy you want on the mound is the veteran who has proven he can get outs in high-pressure situations, right? Wrong. Based on how the big-money relievers are performing this year, you might be better off with the no-name who was plucked off the scrap heap.
Among the 54 pitchers who have been used regularly in high-
leverage situations this season, the correlation between salary and performance is just .07 (where zero is no relation and one is a perfect bond). High-leverage situations—points in any given game where the probability of one team winning could shift dramatically—are typically found in the late innings of a close game, especially with men on base. Teams that are paying high prices for proven closers are not getting any better production overall than teams that are paying peanuts for their relief ace.
Highly-paid closers such as Joe Nathan and Mariano Rivera have earned their keep, but they are the exception, not the rule. Kerry Wood was supposed to be the anchor of the Indians bullpen after signing a two-year, $20.5 million contract over the winter. Instead, he has been a disaster, posting a 5.11 ERA and blowing five of his 19 save opportunities. Brad Lidge (three years, $37.5 million, 7.11 ERA and six blown saves) has been even worse for the Phillies.
Other teams that have put their faith in career journeymen have seen tremendous results. David Aardsma has been lights out for Seattle, but will earn less than half a million this season and was acquired for an A-ball reliever. The Giants, Rays and Cardinals have also gotten tremendous returns on their investments in cheap relief pitching.

What is the right thing to say ?
"You are welcome"
"You are welcomed"
"You welcome"
What is the right thing to say ?
"You are welcome"
"You are welcomed"
"You welcome"
"You are welcome," though it's usually shortened to "You're welcome."
Depending on the context, any one of them could be the right thing to say.
I say "you're welcome" as a response to the phrase "thank you" (you're welcomed when I show hospitality).
I say, "You are welcomed!" As in:
abbreviated to "You are welcomed." Another example of the use of you are welcomed would be
versus, as is often said, "You are welcome to ...." Think parallels: You are invited to help yourself to anything in the pantry." What would you say to this: "You are invite to help yourself to anything in the pantry." What??? The latter example shouts the answer loud and clear to native speakers who understand the nuances of language—and the answer isn't using 'you are welcome.'
Not sure why I'm picky about this particular phrase, because other rules I transgress without a second thought.
Thank you for your interest in this question.
Because it has attracted low-quality or spam answers that had to be removed, posting an answer now requires 10 reputation on this site (the association bonus does not count).
Would you like to answer one of these unanswered questions instead?

Nothing wildly imaginative in this installment of the popular series, but the sex works well enough. Kat Langer plays an oil refinery employee named "Worm," whose co-workers Dave Hardman and Jason McCain pour a thick, black liquid all over her body before they d.p. her. Nikita Denise shops for shoes and gets assfucked by foot fetishist Johnny Thrust in the best match-up; Kiki D'Aire and Lance Romance use vegetables as sex enhancement tools; and there's a strange Medieval closer between Billie Britt, Herschel Savage and Rick Masters.
