Solomon Andrews (inventor)
Dr. Solomon Andrews (1806 – 1872)[1] was an aviator and dirigible airship inventor. The difference of specific gravity between the balloon and the surrounding atmosphere could be converted by a system of inclined planes to steer the craft, without a motor.[2][clarification needed] He referred to his propulsion as "gravitation."[3] The craft was not normally trimmed to be neutrally buoyant. Instead it would be cycled between positive and negative buoyancy. The resulting airflow across the body of the craft and attached airfoils would propel it. (Picture a glider alternately rising and falling through the air.) He claimed to sail it as one would a sailboat.[4] Mention is made of the movement of pilot and passenger fore and aft in the basket to control attitude.[5] He was a medical doctor and three times Mayor of Perth Amboy, New Jersey. He constructed the city's first sewer system.
Dr. Solomon Andrews was born on February 15, 1806, in Herkimer, New York.[6] He received his medical degree from Rutgers Medical College, class of 1827.
He died on October 17, 1872, in Perth Amboy.[7]
His first "Aereon" flew over Perth Amboy on June 1, 1863. This had three 80-foot cigar-shaped balloons, with a rudder and gondola. Buoyancy was controlled by jettisoning sand ballast or releasing hydrogen lift gas.[4] Dr. Andrews wrote Abraham Lincoln later that summer offering the Aereon for use in the American Civil War, during which he served for a time as a volunteer surgeon in the Union Army.[7] After much discussion, he arranged a demonstration early in 1864 before the Smithsonian Institution. He was informed, nearly a year later, that the Government had little interest in his invention, and by that time the war was nearly over.
Andrews then organized the Aerial Navigation Company to build commercial Airships and establish a regular line between New York and Philadelphia.
The "Aereon #2" had one "lemon-shaped" balloon, sharply pointed at the ends. It controlled buoyancy with a system of lines and pulleys that compressed the gas or allowed it to expand.[4] This flew over New York City on May 25, 1866 and June 5, 1866. The second trip, carrying a passenger-assistant (a news reporter had to be left out at the last minute because of weight problems)[8] ended at Oyster Bay, Long Island. At this point, the post-war economic collapse and its bank failures destroyed the company, and he never flew again.
Other inventions[edit]
Andrews also invented a sewing machine, a barrel making machine, fumigators,[1] forging presses, a kitchen range, a gas lamp, a nicotine-filtering pipe, rekeying and a padlock which has been used by the U.S. Post Office since 1842.
The Aereon Corporation attempted, in New Jersey in 1969, to replicate and improve on the airship designs of Solomon Andrews. This was written about in the book "The Deltoid Pumpkin Seed," by John McPhee (ISBN 9780374516352). This book and Andrews' work provided the inspiration for development of the Hyperblimp, and various embodiments of an underwater gliding toy, by inventor Daniel Geery.

Next year will be the 60th anniversary of Greece's highest profile motorsport event and the country's government is keen to see the planned 2014 celebration rally go ahead.
Eurosport Events, the ERC promoter, is obliged to talk to any WRC round dropped from the calendar and those discussions are now underway.
Acropolis promoter Pavlos Athanasoulas admitted he was mystified at the decision not to include one of the WRC's most iconic rallies in 2014.
While his primary objective is a return to the world championship, Athanasoulas acknowledged that the promotion and publicity of the European series was of interest.
"We are in discussion about next year with them," he said. "Our principle backer is keen for the event to run next year and the ERC is a very strong championship and one which we follow closely.
"If we do this, we would look to add some magic with some WRC drivers coming as well."
Athanasoulas was also quick to pour cold water on speculation of financial trouble for the Loutraki-based event.
"We have an agreement with both [FIA rally director] Jarmo Mahonen and Jean Todt [FIA president] that we will pay our calendar fees in installments," said Athanasoulas.
"This is what we have done in previous years. We owe nothing for 2011 and 2012, but we owe €125,000 (£104,000) for this year and we have an agreed structure for paying that. When we receive the money from the sponsors, that money gets paid straight to the FIA.
"This is how it has worked in the past and that is what we agreed with the FIA and the promoter. I believe there is also some money outstanding from ELPA [Greek ASN], but again, this is being sorted out."

Das Appartment war sehr hell und geräumig. Es ist zentral gelegen. Es war auch relativ sauber. Der Kontakt zu Michael und seinen Kollegen Klappte super. Beim nächsten Pragurlaub würde ich die Wohnung wieder buchen.
schönes appartement, bilder entsprechen eins zu eins dem appartement. Da wir es nicht gleich gefunden haben sind wir abgeholt worden und zum Appartement geführt worden.
Perfekte Lage, mitten in der Innenstadt. Großer Supermarkt keine 5 Minuten entfernt.
Leider bekamen wir keinen zweiten Schlüsselsatz, da einer wohl verloren gegangen ist, deshalb einen Punkt abzug.
Ansonsten sehr zu empfehlen. Beim nächsten Besuch in prag würden wir wieder dort hingehen.
Emailkontakt vorher war sehr freundlich und wir erhielten Antworten auf alle unsere Fragen. Ab unserer Ankunft in Prag ging jedoch alles schief: Der vereinbarte Transfer war nicht da und nach mehreren Telefonaten und einer Stunde wurden wir erst abgeholt. Die Wohnung war trotz unserer Verspätung nicht fertig (dreckig, Betten nicht gemacht, unaufgeräumt). Keine Entschädigung für die Unanehmlichkeiten. Das Gebäude ist schön und sehr zentral gelegen; Die Wohnung einfach eingerichtet, aber nicht liebevoll; Alles, was man braucht ist da. Zum gleichen Preis in anderen erupäischen Hauptstädten hab ich mehr für den selben Preis bekommen und bin insgesamt enttäsucht.
Very nice apartment in the old centre. Maybe more than one towel per person would be even more great...
Great apartment! Great hosts! We had a wonderful time in Prague! The place was really spacious and in a perfect walking distance to all different places of interest.
Really nice apartment. Clean and spacious. Everything went to plan, no problems with the booking at all. In a very safe, convenient area. I would certainly recommend this apartment.
Spacious and clean flat in the heart of Prague. The hosts were very uncomplicated and generous. If you have a light sleep maybe bring something to cover your ears ans eyes because sometimes it can get a little loud outside and the curtains don't do the best job. This is the perfect starting point to explore the city in all directions whether you want to go to the old town, new town or the Kleinseite. You can get everywhere by foot. We would definity stay here again and recommend the hosts because the price is very reasonable compared to what you get for it.
Located downtown. Appartment isn't bad, but should have been cleaned properly before You welcome guests. Kitchen was well equiped, bathroom clearly has seen better days.
You can find better deals in Prague for the money.
This apartment is very well located with many of the main sights within a relatively short walking distance. The transport stops for tram and metro are close by.
The apartment is well equipped and spacious. The only negative is that it is on the third storey; quite a long way up with a heavy suitcase. We had no trouble contacting the owners rep who was helpful.
Apartment was great, It is extremely large and room for many people and the balcony is a lot bigger than what the pictures present. The location of the property is second to none. A maximum of 5 minute walk to Charles Bridge, The Astronomical Clock and The Old Town Square but the apartment is tucked away in a quiet street with no noise. Michael the host was extremely helpful and suggest a lot of close buy hot spots. This would be an amazing apartment to rent for a birthday weekend with 5 or 6 friends! Highly recommend!

Arcady is an ensemble dedicated to the recording and performance of music by Ronald Beckett. Arcady has performed three operas and produced three CDs of Beckett's work. The organization combines outstanding young Canadian performers with established professional instrumentalists and singers. The ensemble has also established a reputation for its energetic and imaginative performances of early music and is the regular chorus for Boris Brott's National Academy Orchestra of Canada. Founded and directed by Beckett, Arcady offers 25 to 30 performances in Southwestern Ontario each year. It offers to its presenters a variety of programs ranging from small recital programs to full scale choral-orchestral concerts.
"It is rare to find a composer who has equal gifts in the technical skills as well as the expressive and communicative aspects of composition. In my opinion, Beckett's work is an important and original contribution to Canadian culture and to contemporary music in general."
-Nick Peros, Phoenix Records
The majority of Arcady's performances are based on its five CDs: A Baroque Messiah (1999), Welcome Yule! (2001), A Beckett Miscellany (2002) and Beckett's opera Ruth (2007). It also produced a popular Christmas CD for Ruby Productions (Peace on Earth – 2000). Arcady recordings have received extensive radio play on classical stations in North America and Europe.

Cutting up potatoes for chips and french fries can be time consuming and you often end up with chips of varying sizes.
Progressive have a couple of French Fry cutters available but this is the grand daddy of them and as it will hold large potatoes so you don't have to cut them in half to fit.
The Progressive Jumbo Potato Cutter gives a uniform result and there are two sizes of stainless steel cutter blades included. The large cutter has 36 holes which gives you nice thick 1/2 inch slices and the smaller 64 hole blade is for thin 'french fry' style 3/8 inch slices.
So how does it work? Well there is a suction cup that attaches the cutter to the counter top to anchor it in place. You then pop the potato into the cutter and the leverage handle pushes the potato through the cuttercuts quickly and easily in one motion.
You don't have to just use this for potatoes, it works just as well for other vegetables like carrots and zucchini.
Features at a glance:
- Cuts large potatoes in one motion
- Set includes 2 blades for small and large sticks
- Features a strong suction base to eliminate slipping
- Use with potatoes, carrots, zuchinni, and yams
Now the majority of the people who brought the Progressive Jumbo Potato Cutter are very pleased with it, however, one person was not as pleased with their cutter as the others. And one reviewer commented that they can't keep enough potatoes in their house these days as the family keeps making chips using the cutter.

CDC Releases New HIV Statistics
Less Than 1% of U.S. Adults Younger than 50 Have HIV, New HIV Prevalence Statistics Show
Reviewed by Louise Chang, MD
Jan. 29, 2008 -- The CDC today reported that about one-half of 1% of U.S. adults younger than 50 have HIV.
The CDC's HIV prevalence statistics are based on nearly 12,000 adults aged 18-49 who took part in national health studies from 1999 to 2006.
Participants were interviewed and provided blood samples; 0.47% had HIV infection. That's similar to findings from a 1988-1994 survey, states a CDC news release.
HIV infection was more common among men than women, and among African-Americans than whites or Mexican-Americans.
About 2.6% of African-American men and 1.5% of African-American women were HIV positive.
The data don't show how people contracted HIV.
The findings appear in January's edition of the CDC's NCHS Data Brief.

Politics 36th District Race Sends Money Across State Lines
posted by September 9 at 15:09 PMon
Out-of-state money has become a big factor in the race for state Rep. from Seattle's 36th District, which encompasses parts of Magnolia, Ballard, and Queen Annea somewhat surprising development, given that such races are generally decided by a few thousand votes, and considering state legislators make less than $42,000 a year.
Nonetheless, the race between Reuven Carlyle and John Burbank, two Democrats who are seekingr the seat, has sent tens of thousands of dollars across state lines. Carlyle has taken nearly $43,000 in out-of-state donations, or about 21 percent of his total contributionsmuch of that from California, Washington, D.C., and Maryland. Burbank, meanwhile, brought in about $32,000 from out of state, or about 20 percent of his contributions, much of that from California, Oregon, New York, and Massachusetts.
Burbank, unlike Carlyle, also spent a large amount of money out of state—a fact his opponents will likely point to when rebutting claims that Carlyle is a business-backed outsider, while Burbank is a solid, longtime member of the 36th District community. About $32,000, or 42 percent of his spending so far, went to an Oregon consulting firm called Winning Mark, which Burbank says he chose because they work primarily on environmental and progressive issues, and I wanted to keep my [campaign] work in the [Pacific Northwest] region.
Burbank says all this fundraising and spending wouldn't have been necessary if Carlyle had agreed to a $100,000 spending limit Burbank proposed early in the campaign. But the top-two primary, which requires candidates in single-party-dominated districts like the 36th to start raising and spending money far earlier than in previous years, seems like a likelier culprit. So far, Carlyle has raised around $208,000 (a huge amount for a relatively minor race) to Burbank's $159,000. The

London Maccabi Vale 2nd dented MAL's promotion hopes with a seven-wicket victory in Middlesex Sunday League Division Three.
The result saw MAL suffer only their second league defeat of the season but in truth Vale were the better side throughout, and cruised to victory with more than 10 overs remaining.
Vale skipper Jon Lederman won the toss and asked MAL to bat. The pitch proved to be very two-paced with the ball not coming on to the bat and the batsmen struggling to time the ball.
London Maccabi Vale 3rd XI made its first appearance of the season but a team combining youth and experience were edged out by one wicket by West Harrow.
No matter what level you play your cricket, as long as the opposition are well-matched you can have a great contest; which is what we had on Sunday. A match that went the full 80 overs and finished just after half past eight was played in an excellent spirit on both sides and hopefully gave LMV's youngsters valuable experience of how to deal with pressure.
A captain's innings from Joel Sager helped BESCC secure their second victory after beating Barnet Synagogue in the latest Inter-Synagogue friendly.
Two early wickets from Phil Lassman soon had Barnet on the back foot. Tight spells from Jamie Kaye and Freedman kept Barnet in check and after two well executed run-outs, Barnet were dismissed for 113.
BESCC overcame the early losses of Freedman and Turek. Wobbling at 18-3, Sager carried his bat, despite not having played since last August, to make 47 not out as BESCC eased home with four overs to spare.
A man of the match display from Benjamin Lederman helped London Maccabi Vale 2nds earn a credible draw against Wembley at Vale Farm.
Playing in a timed match for the first time this season, LMV had the better of the result, but were unable to break through the determined defence of the experienced tail end of Wembley.
David Freedman and Lederman opened the batting for the third week in a row. Freedman was undone by an excellent in-swinger early on. Jeremy Harris came in and hit a couple of boundaries but was completely undone by another excellent swinging delivery.
South Manchester Maccabi won the NJCL Twenty20 Cup after beating Salford in the final.
A hotly contested competition at Scholes Field in Gatley featured South Manchester, Manchester Maccabi, Salford and Leeds Maccabi.
South met rivals Maccabi in the first semi final of the day. The decision to insert Maccabi looked to have paid dividends as the Lieberman brothers, Akiva and Huddy, ripprf into the Maccabi top order, leaving them in a perilous state of 27-5, with Huddy taking 4-7.
Belmont & Edware 1sts recorded a thumping 167-runs over West Middlesex in the Middlesex League Division Three.
This was a victory built on a platform provided by Daniel Abrahams (47) and Jonathan Evans (66), well-supported by the rest of the team.
Everyone chipped in, with every batsman reaching double figures, and key performances from Warren Averbuch (24*) and Ami Wynbourne (19*, including eight from one ball) at the death taking the total over the 300-run mark.
MAL's promotion hopes were given a boost as they claimed a crushing eight-wicket victory over promotion rivals Kensington & Chelsea in the Middlesex Sunday Cricket League Division Three.
Skipper Gav Lebens won the toss and chose to field on what is always a very quick scoring ground at Old Camdenians.
London Maccabi Vale 1st marched 12 points clear at the top of the Middlesex Sunday League Division Two table after beating Finchley by 62 runs at Arden Field.
A third wicket partnership of 161, last 107 minutes and 24 overs, between opener Danny Caro and captain Adam Brand enabled LMV to post 258-5 from their 40 overs.
Things did not start well however as Alex Haffner was caught behind attempting a pull while Daniel Becker was caught behind.
Israel 222 Herschel Gutman 73
Germany 166 Herschel Gutman 4-20
Israel won by 56 runs
Israel 200 Eshkol Solomon 120
Gibraltar 170-9 Josh Evans 4-21
Israel won by 30 runs
Belmont & Edgware 3rd XI suffered a 92-run defeat against Weldon.
Stand-in BECC captain Blasebalk won the toss and looking at the short boundaries and glut of young bowlers, decided to field. Based on the performance of the young team featuring six Under 17 players, it was the right decision as the strength was in the bowling.

I think making STRING and deftypes that expand directly to STRING magical is technically inferior to making all sorts of subtypes of string equally magical: If someone wants to use base-strings to save space when possible, but doesn't want to pay for (VECTOR NIL) or non-simple strings, a deftype along the lines of (deftype string () '(and simple-string (not (vector nil)))) should work just fine with MAP, COERCE, etc. While I find it conceptually more elegant to implement this by working with general union types, I do agree that practical considerations are probably limited to strings, so I have no particular objections to making subtypes of CL:STRING magical here. (Clearly making deftypes that directly expand to CL:STRING work is an improvement over the current state of affairs, however. I'm perfectly willing to live with that too, but it's not my preference.)

Analysis: Trivia
Brain Snacks: Tasty Tidbits of Knowledge
According to 2001 testimony from an 89-year-old descendant of the Stewart family, the actual Appin murder was planned and carried out by four Jacobite Stewarts working in cahoots. The fatal shot was fired by a man named Donald Stewart, but James Stewart was still executed for it. For more on the background of this extremely belated Stewart confession, check out this article, titled "Who Killed Red Fox?"
Despite his crippling tuberculosis, Robert Louis Stevenson was a great traveler for most of his life.

Breath-Holding Spells: Helping Your Child Avoid Injury - Topic Overview
To keep your child safe during a breath-holding spell:
- Lay your child on the floor on his or her back, facing either upward or to one side.
- Protect your child's head, arms, and legs from hitting something hard or sharp accidentally.
- If your child was eating before a spell, open his or her mouth carefully and look for pieces of food, but do not try to remove food with your fingers. Instead, tilt your child's head to the side so the food can come out on its own.
- Touch and talk to your child. This helps you stay calm.
- Time the spell with a watch. Spells usually last only a minute but seem longer.
- Do not give your child any medicines during a spell.
- Allow your child to wake up on his or her own after a spell.
Your child may stop breathing for up to 1 minute (60 seconds) during a spell. If your child doesn't wake up quickly and start breathing again, call 911 or other emergency services. The 911 operator may tell you to give your child rescue breaths while you wait for help to arrive.

I don't want my username in the url of my archives for obvious reasons.
One of the first things I was told to do for security purposes was change the user account "admin" to a different name but if anyone can find out my username by looking at my archive url there is still a security breech.
I don't want to use a plug-in. I would rather add code somewhere to change the user nicename. I tried doing it through my phpmyadmin on my hosting but it messed up my whole site.
Any ideas?

Vt parish breaks ground on new hall
ESSEX Parishioners in Essex who lost part of their church in a fire in 2011 have broken ground on a new parish center.
The Holy Family-St. Lawrence Roman Catholic Church in Essex was hit by lightning. That started a fire that destroyed the 100-year-old recently renovated former barn that served as the meeting hall.
Bishop Salvatore R. Matano, head of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Burlington, blessed and broke ground Sunday on the center.
Church officials told the Burlington Free Press the new hall is projected to cost about $1.45 million and will be funded through a combination of the insurance settlement on the old hall and a fundraising drive. The 3,900-square-foot building is to be larger than the old hall.
The parish serves about 1,000 families.MORE IN This Just InCASTLETON Rutland Post 31 pitcher Andy Kenosh called it mojo.

The Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law class of 2016 celebrated a joyous commencement on May 31, 2016 at David Geffen Hall at Lincoln Center.
The Cardozo Journal for Conflict Resolution's 2015 International Advocate for Peace Award Goes to Folk Legends Peter, Paul, and Mary
Indeed, this was an unusual evening: the presentation of the 2015 International Advocate for Peace Award by the Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution to the legendary folk group Peter, Paul, and (posthumously) Mary.
The course simulates a real-life negotiation, and students learn and apply the skills of drafting, client consultation, matter management and negotiation.
On Monday, February 22, Benjamin Seibel '16 and John Ludwig '17 will argue their client's appeal before the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.
Cardozo School of Law and The International Center for Transitional Justice Partner on a Project on the Missing and Disappeared
Under the agreement, student participants of the clinic will review the evolution of these concepts and their legal implications, and share their results with ICTJ, an international organization that works in countries seeking to address legacies of mass human rights violations.
The Cardozo School of Law team of Jonah Brill '17, Sarah Griggs '17, Joseph Kammerman '16, Vino Jayaraman '16, Charles Manfredi '17, Liliya Perelman '16, and Madison Wiles-Haffner '17 won first place at the 2016 Tulane Mardi Gras Sports Law Competition in February 2016.
Congratulations to the Cardozo Law Review alumni whose notes were cited in December 2015 and January 2016.

@TECHREPORT{Wadler87theconcatenate, author = {Philip Wadler}, title = {The Concatenate Vanishes}, institution = {}, year = {1987}}
This note presents a trivial transformation that can eliminate many calls of the concatenate (or "append") operator from a program. The general form of the transformation is well known, and one of the examples, transforming the reverse function, is a classic. However, so far as I am aware, this style of transformation has not previously been systematised in the way done here. The transformation is suitable for incorporation in a compiler, and improves the asymptotic time complexity of some programs from quadratic to linear. There is a syntactic test that determines when the transformation will succeed in eliminating a concatenate operation. Section 1 describes the transformation. Section 2 presents examples. Section 3 characterises the transformation's benefits. Section 4 describes related work. Section 5 concludes. 1 The transformation First, some notational preliminaries. We write concatenate as infix +, list construction (cons) as infix:, and the empty list as []. We write [x, y, z] as an abbreviation for x: (y: (z: [])). We will make use of the following laws: (1) [ ] + x = x (2) (x: y) + z = x: (y + z) (3) (x + y) + z = x + (y + z) Laws (1) and (2) provide a recursive definition of concatenate. Law (3) states that concatenate is associative; it may be proved from laws (1) and (2). We now describe the transformation. The key idea is that whenever an application of a function f may appear as the left argument of a concatenation, then we introduce a new function f ′ , satisfying the property

Working and Poor: How Economic Policy Changes Are Affecting Low-Wage Workersby Rebecca M. Blank
Pub. Date: 02/28/2007
Publisher: Russell Sage Foundation
Over the last three decades, large-scale economic developments, such as technological change, the decline in unionization, and changing skill requirements, have exacted their biggest toll on low-wage workers.

Over the last three decades, large-scale economic developments, such as technological change, the decline in unionization, and changing skill requirements, have exacted their biggest toll on low-wage workers. These workers often possess few marketable skills and few resources with which to support themselves during periods of economic transition. In Working and Poor, a distinguished group of economists and policy experts, headlined by editors Rebecca Blank, Sheldon Danziger, and Robert Schoeni, examine how economic and policy changes over the last twenty-five years have affected the well-being of low-wage workers and their families.
Working and Poor examines every facet of the economic well-being of less-skilled workers, from employment and earnings opportunities to consumption behavior and social assistance policies. Rebecca Blank and Heidi Schierholz document the different trends in work and wages among less-skilled women and men. Between 1979 and 2003, labor force participation rose rapidly for these women, along with more modest increases in wages, while among the men both employment and wages fell. David Card and John DiNardo review the evidence on how technological changes have affected less-skilled workers and conclude that the effect has been smaller than many observers claim. Philip Levine examines the effectiveness of the Unemployment Insurance program during recessions. He finds that the program's eligibility rules, which deny benefits to workers who have not met minimum earnings requirements, exclude the very people who require help most and should be adjusted to provide for those with the highest need. On the other hand, Therese J. McGuire and David F. Merriman show that government help remains a valuable source of support during economic downturns. They find that during the most recent recession in 2001, when state budgets were stretched thin, legislatures resisted political pressure to cut spending for the poor.
Working and Poor provides a valuable analysis of the role that public policy changes can play in improving the plight of the working poor. A comprehensive analysis of trends over the last twenty-five years, this book provides an invaluable reference for the public discussion of work and poverty in America.

Adult book picks: 'Alexandria: The Last Nights of Cleopatra'
Published: Sunday, September 15, 2013 at 3:15 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, September 13, 2013 at 3:56 p.m.
"Alexandria: The Last Nights of Cleopatra" by Peter Stothard. When the author finds himself stranded in the Egyptian city of Alexandria in the winter of 2010 after his flight has been canceled because of severe weather, he sets out to explore a nation on the brink of revolution. Guided by two native Egyptians, Stothard traces his own life-long interest in the history of Cleopatra, reflecting on her story of lust and loss as well as on his own repeated failure to write the book about her that he had always wanted to.
"Jane Austen's England" by Roy and Lesley Adkins. Nearly two centuries after her death, Jane Austen remains the most beloved of all novelists in the English language, incomparable in the wit, warmth and insights, with which she chronicles the wayward hearts and courtships of her unforgettable characters. For all its emotional rewards, her work also offers a vivid depiction of rural life in late Georgian and Regency England, its country balls and ivy-covered vicarages, its social hierarchies and its anxieties about property and income.
"The Daedalus Incident" by Michael Martinez. Bizarre earthquakes are rumbling over the long dormant tectonic plates of the planet, disrupting its trillion dollar mining operations and driving scientists past the edges of theory and reason. However, when rocks shake off their ancient dust and begin to roll — seemingly of their own volition — carving canals as they converge to form a towering structure amid the ruddy terrain, Lt. Jain and her JSC team realize that their routine geological survey of a Martian cave system is anything but. The only clues they have stem from the emissions of a mysterious blue radiation, and a 300-year-old journal that is writing itself.

"M E T Z" Top 5 Page for this destination Metz by Aurorae
Metz Travel Guide: 186 reviews and 584 photos
Metz is a charming town in Lorraine, near Luxembourg and Germany, and thus the target for one day visits from these countries (especially on the weekends!)
There are several important monuments to see, as well as to enjoy the strolls in the downtown pedestrian area, with narrow colourful streets, or along the banks of the rivers.
There is also a tourist train option, as well as boat rides.
One very important thing is that Metz was German from 1870 to WWI and some of
the prominent buildings were built during that period, like Temple de Garnison. (Thanks for that info, JLBG!)
NOTE: I made this page "in order of appearance" - I wrote about the places in the order I visited them. That doesn't mean that the first tip is the most interesting or beautiful thing to do/see in Metz. So you can judge for yourself...

I really enjoyed your page about Metz!!! Great pictures! It makes me want to visit it soon. thanks. All the best from France! Elena
Very nice tips and photos! I've been through Metz on the train fairly often, but never stopped there. Will have to remedy that, as it looks really nice and is not very far from Frankfurt. And it even has an opera house . . .
Love the old twisty streets! Nice page & tips! Happy travels, Blu
...tr�s jolie page de metz, jelena! beaucoup de information et jolie photograph! tr�s bien!
An excellent page ! I have been half a dozen time to Metz for my job but never really visited. Thank you for showing all what I have missed !
Belle foto e informazioni molto interessanti, soprattutto le leggende! Non sono mai stato a Metz, ma � una delle citt� che vorrei visitare, come anche Nancy, Troyes, Reims, ecc.
Recollections... The city is much more wonderful than in winter time I have been to Metz. One day I will visit it in summer!
Interesting local customs Jelena! Great spooky pic of the cathedral too. Metz looks like another beautiful Frence town to add to my list to vist. Excellent page (~_~)

I just bought the pro version of the plugin but when I try to create a new gallery ( or anything ! ) I have nothing on my screen to choose from
except blank thumbnails, here's a sample :
All the images, thumbnails, etc... are in the media library but I can't get anything to work.
This said, if I try to create a gallery ( with nothing in it ) just to check how to set it up on one of my pages ( cpying the code in my page )
It completly messes my page :
If, for exemple, I have an introduction text a the begining of my page and want to put the gallery after that, nothing works ( for exemple, the text is going to appear under the gallery icons, etc...)
Assuming that I paid for this plugin, any help would be much appreciated...( I'm in an emergency situation )

Jennifer Lawrence might saddle up for Quentin Tarantino's next western, The Hateful Eight. Collider reports rumors the Oscar winner is high on a short list for an unnamed character.
When the script went through a live read Kurt Russell and Samuel L. Jackson played rival bounty hunters who get stuck in a Wyoming saloon as a blizzard rolls in. Walton Goggins played an AWOL Confederate soldier while Amber Tamblyn portrayed a convicted criminal. All are expected to return for the film along with Bruce Dern and Michael Madsen.
At this point, Lawrence's schedule might be the largest hurdle, as Hateful is expected to start shooting early next year. The actress is mostly done with The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2, although reshoots and pick-ups might still be scheduled. She's also starring in David O. Russell's (Silver Linings Playbook, American Hustle) next project Joy, which is slated for a Dec. 25, 2015, release.
Tarantino's next film has not yet been scheduled, but the poster says it will be out in 2015.
Tarantino is a hack and his dialogue scenes are atrocious. That's all.
I earns a lot of money through online jobs .i get paid EIGHTY EIGHT dollars(88$) per hour working from home with 5 kids at home. I never thought I'd be able to do it but my best friend earns over ELEVENk(11k) a month doing this and she convinced me to try. The potential with this is endless and successful . Heres what have been doing ……
for more info, coPy it and open it in new tab…..
Back under your bridge, troll. I'm psyched for this picture, Q.T. 's movie rock.

I think all state champion wrestlers from every classification should be able to participate. Make it a day long tournament. Many times some of the best wrestlers in the state, are from 3A and 2A.

UTEFAN!@: They are allowed to compete. I think each classification can send
several of its state placers to the event.
It is a great start but the process for a lot of us that love wrestling is not complete. Many in the wrestling community would like this to be the formalized individual state championship and the team state state championship decided by the dual meet format. Right now it is a post-season event but not the sponsored UHSAA state championship. My preference would be to expand this to a 32-man bracket similar to California. But it is UHSAA sanctioned, now it is up to the wrestling community to support it so it can be taken to its logical and awesome level. The UHSAA wants to see wrestlers making the trip, and fans attending the meet. If this happens this would radically change the face of competition perhaps for other individual sports like golf and tennis. Why could they not also have a true state championship for individual athletes. I would love to see those great golfers from the 3A St. George schools battle it out with those top 4A/5A golfer in high school events.

teleste: You sound a little saracastic with your comment it reminds me of a time when a parent in the 5A division said there isn't a team in 2 and 3A that can compete with our school because we have more talet to choose from, now this statement is true but believe me there is some outstanding athletes in 3,2,and 1A schools that can beat anyone in this State only problem is people like you don't have any respect for them or don't want to explain how a small town school program beat up on a bigger school. Just ask the HS Coach for baseball at Bingham if they will play a 2A school in preseason they will tell you no way reason being if they got beat by a small school it really effects their rankings and is embarrassing to their program, and gives them nothing if they win. This is why I think EVERY sport should have a playoff system for a true State Champion every year lets put all the cards out on the table and see whos bluffing! Anyone can win it all but they need the chance to prove it!

great idea, but I hope they expand the entrants from the smaller schools. It's well known that the smaller divisions have been pretty equal to 4A/5A for many years. You could use a 32 man bracket. All divisions get their placers (1-6th, except 1A who only place 4) that gives you 28 kids. Maybe use rankings to allow the top 4 kids first round byes and then seed accordingly or something like that. This would be a fun tourney to watch!

The design is discussed of distributed algorithms for the single-source shortest-path problem to run on an asynchronous directed network in which some of the edges may be associated with negative weights, and thus in which a cycle of negative total weight may also exist. The only existing solution in the literature for this problem is due to K.M. Chandy and J. Misra (1982), and it has, in the worst case, an unbounded message complexity. A synchronous version of the Chandy-Misra algorithm is described and studied, and it is proved that for a network with m edges and n nodes, the worst case message and time complexities of this algorithm are O(mn ) and O(n), respectively. This algorithm is then combined with an efficient synchronizer to yield an asynchronous protocol that retains the same message and time complexities

Perhaps...listen in...
hmm I've just had an idea...what if...the GTA V is structured sort of like a Tarantino-esque story(or GTA IV+episodes in one) with three characters whose individual stories intertwine in the LS county area??
You know how rockstar does these things, about 3 trailers, and then you get the game.
So, that would mean the first trailer is about(other than introducing the setting/time/vibe/etc.) one of the characters, the older Italian looking guy, narrated by himself, with a glimpse of the other two characters as well(younger tattooed black guy and the younger white/latino guy).
It would make sense, for the variety sake, different backgrounds, experiences, social groups, contacts etc.
Also, the style of the gameplay would possibly be restricted, if you only played as an 50+ years old man, you couldn't really expect him to do all that GTA style mayhem adequately?
I'm basing this view on the rumors of multiple characters and that rockstar's quote:
A bold new direction in open-world freedom, storytelling, mission-based gameplay and online multiplayer
In my view, five characters(suggested by some) would probably over complicate things and water down the characters themselves, hampering the immersion in each of their stories...3 is a good number, not to loose track of the story paths, me thinks.
Am I onto something here? What do you guys think?

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3D Pop Up Sewerscape lets your little Turtles fan have a blast roleplaying as one of the mutant four. This is a collapsible pop-up tent that has two parts: a roomy cube space and a tunnel that can lead to the outside. Like all tents, this has flaps to keep unwanted visitors out. The tunnel detaches from the cube for added play. Realistic 3-D graphics on the inside and outside of the tent will bring the inner ninja out of your child. There is also an added playmat space outside the cube structure, giving it much more of a realistic feel and also added sewer play.
Roleplay and creativity are such an important part of play and childhood, and this vibrant and fun 3-D playscape will offer up hours of imaginative engagement for your child.
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3D Pop Up Sewerscape is for ages 18 months and up.
Some assembly is required, but putting this play tent together was easy to do. However, trying to fold it back up for storage was very difficult, and we were never able to successfully fold it up all the way.
