Upasana Performing Arts CenterUpasana offers classes in Kathak, which is a classical dance form from India (originally North India). Its name comes from the word "katha" which literally means "story". Kathak originates from the "kathakars" or storytellers who presented religious and moral instruction in narrative form. Music, mime, and dance became important features of their technique and when this mingled with the decorative dance styles introduced by the Moguls (14th-17th centuries) kathak became a complex movement form capable of dealing with the themes of Hindu myths as well as more contemporary subjects. Subsequently its narrative content became highly refined (that which remained dealing primarily with the stories of Radha and Krishna) and dancers focused on music and rhythm. Kathak performers are noted for their virtuosic fast turns and stamping footwork, whose rhythms, exaggerated by ankle bells, develop into highly complex metrical sequences.

No matter how nice your tuxedo looks on a hanger, it won´t mean a thing if it has not got that...fit. If you haven´t sized your tux correctly, you may end up with a high-water, too-tight, or too-loose suit that will make you look like a goofball on your wedding day. Make sure you get the right size by following our sizing guidelines below.
Choose your formalwear for style and comfort. You should be able to move easily -- do lots of twists, turns, and arm raises when you audition outfits. After all, you�ll be wearing those duds for four to eight emotional, fun-filled hours.
It´s a good idea for everyone to try on their formalwear at least two days before the wedding. Sounds like a no-brainer, right? You´d be surprised. Many mismatched bridal parties or ill-fitting jackets result from neglect of this simple step.
If the suits don´t fit, you´ll still have time to run back to the rental shop or the tailor to get the kinks worked out.
Here´s what to look for when you´re sizing up a tux:
Your jacket should fit comfortably at the neck and shoulders and fasten easily. Try standing and sitting with it buttoned.
About 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch of your shirt´s cuff should show below the jacket sleeve. It should fit comfortably at the neck, shoulders, and waist.
Vest buttons should line up with your jacket front, and the vest should button comfortably across your chest. The bottom should slightly overlap the trouser waistband. The vest�s waist usually adjusts with a slide strap for a good fit. Something to consider, says Lord West´s Toll: a vest with a full back. When jackets come off during the reception, guests will see the real deal instead of a strap and the back of your shirt.
These should button comfortably and feel good when you sit. Many styles have adjustable waistbands, or you can opt for suspenders. The hem should break just over your shoe tops.
Bow tie
If you go for a bow tie, make sure you know your neck size. Most ties are adjustable, but check twice to make sure.
If you haven´t checked your shoe size since you bought dress shoes for your sixth grade graduation, reacquaint yourself with the Brannock device -- that metal slide-rule contraption shoe stores use to measure your feet. Remember that the best time to try on shoes is at the end of the day, because if your feet swell at all, they´ll do it then. Better for shoes to be too roomy than too tight.

"Sam Wilson" & US Agent Clash as Spencer's "Captain America" Saga Escalates
Comic Books
Hang Dai Editions is the imprint of Hang Dai Studio, the Brooklyn collective formed by Dean Haspiel, Gregory Benton, Josh Neufeld and the late Seth Kushner. All of them were already well known, Haspiel as a prolific independent cartoonist as well as the artist for Archie Comics' The Fox, Benton as the creator of B+F, which won the MoCCA Festival award last year, Neufeld as the creator of A.D.: New Orleans After the Deluge and the artist for The Influencing Machine: Brooke Gladstone on the Media, and Kushner, who died in May, as a talented photographer and writer whose works included Leaping Tall Buildings, for which he photographed many prominent comics creators, and Schmuck.
The first titles to be published by Hang Dai were minicomics that the creators hand-sold at shows, but recently the collective announced a slate of comics that will be distributed to a wider audience this fall through Alternative Comics.
In an interview with ROBOT 6, Haspiel and Benton talk about the evolution of Hang Dai, the new fall line and the loss of Kushner. They also shared some art from their upcoming books Beef With Tomato (Haspiel) and Smoke (Benton).
Conventions | About 180,000 people flocked to the Tokyo Big Sight on Sunday for the first day of Comiket 87, the world's largest convention dedicated to self-published comics. That's an increase of about 10,000 from the opening day of the summer edition — Comiket is held twice yearly, in August and in December — and about the same as last winter's event. Comiket continues through Tuesday. [Anime News Network]
Comics | Kevin Drum does some very loose calculations to check the claim that millennials are addicted to comics, and he reckons that given the current size of the market, about 2 percent of millennials are comics readers. [Mother Jones]
In 2005, writer Alex de Campi burst into the comics world with the IDW series Smoke. Illustrated by then-recent New X-Men artist Igor Kordey, it burst through the sea of work that year to earn an Eisner nomination — no small feat for such a new entry into comics. Since then she's done a handful of OEL manga and BD comics but has largely fallen off the grid in favor of directing music videos. But now she's coming back, and she's coming back with a sequel to the book that made her name in the industry.
de Campi is working with artist Jimmy Broxton on Ashes, a graphic novel sequel to Smoke that she's aiming to fund via Kickstarter. Described by the author as "a bullet ride through the brain of dystopian Britain into the dark heart of the American psyche," it follows Smoke leads Rupert Cain and Katie Shah as the retribution for bringing down a government comes calling.
And they're offering not only the typical incentives that come with a Kickstarter campaign, but also have listed the European trade rights, North American trade rights and film rights for it as incentives as well. "You can buy the trade rights and the film rights, right there on Kickstarter. Why not? The few book-to-film agents for comics that I've come across really have not added any value to the process. I've had agents at two of the major agencies as well as having worked with independents and nobody really did anything. Publishing and filmmaking will only continue to decentralise from their legacy past as groups of elite insiders based in NY and LA who required an agent to gain you access.," de Campi told Bleeding Cool.
Aiming for a goal of $27,000, de Campi and Broxton have raised over $3,000 in just one day into the drive with just under two months to go. Notable backers at this point including comics creators Kieron Gillen and Dean Haspiel as well as editors Janelle Asselin and Tim Beedle. If you see something you like, add your name to the list.

Back to the Beginning
I was so embarrassed, scared and ashamed for years, thinking that it was my fault and I needed to keep this secret. For years I never fully slept all night, instead waking up screaming, sweating and shaking. My mother would take me to see the family doctor, he would say I was stressed out because of school and I needed to sleep. She also did not tell him about the verbal and physical abuse from my father, her husband. Going to see a doctor and not telling him everything was a waste of time, secrets run in my family. The concept of keeping it within the family but not talking about it, living a fantasy that everything was perfect. The perfect house, wearing the right clothes, driving nice cars etc does not get rid of the pain. It just helps to hide it from the outside world. Everyone thinks you are fine and have it together.
The first image is of my uncle always taking me to my grandparents basement. My grandparents would babysit my brother, sister and my cousins during the summer while our parents worked. I know the abuse went on for years because it was in two basements that it took place. The first house had a huge basement with several different rooms within it. One particular room had old mattresses in them and I will call it the mattress room. Outside of that room was a pool table that the kids played with all the time, then there was a bigger room that had a smaller room. I always hated to go in the basement when he was home because I knew what would happen if I did.
When my uncle was molesting me he was a teenager, he is the youngest out of 10 children on my mothers side. Being around him even still today scares me to death, when I look at him I see evil. There is no remorse, guilt or feeling in his eyes. I did what he told me to do, I did not know what I was doing was wrong and I was afraid of him. He would become mean if I did not do what he told me to do.
When he would take me to the mattress room he would have me pull down my pants and underwear. I never wanted to but I was scared not to. He would start touching my vagina and then he would pull down his pants have me touch him. When that was not enough anymore he would have me lay down on the mattresses so he could get on top of me. There are so many memories but that one is vivid to me today at 42, I still get sick every time I think about it. I am still remembering different thing s that took place and certain situations will trigger a memory. I am not able to control it yet, but it is amazing to me how as a child we learn to block things out to protect ourselves from pain.
I never told my family about the abuse, my husband knows, my therapist and few good friends who were close to me when I attempted suicide. Yes after my grandmother died, my uncles mother I had a break down. She was like my mother but I felt so angry that nobody was there to protect me as a child. I started drinking a lot, became depressed and spent a lot of time going out without my husband to get drunk. I am so good at hiding things that my family never knew I attempted suicide, my husband and I lied about that. When they came to visit me at the hospitals psyche department I told them I was there because I was not sleeping and the doctor became worried. One lie after another, with continuous silence, I am laughing with sarcasm right now. How sad we protect those that hurt us but nobody protected us.
I am not perfect and writing this is the hardest thing I am doing, but I hope my story helps someone else. Secrets are not good; it will slowly kill a person. Walking around trying to pretend that everything is perfect or was perfect does not help either. Today I am back in therapy, back to taking antidepressants and having thoughts to kill myself. My story is to help the next person that they get the help and take care of themselves first. No matter what, believe it was not your fault; it will take you time to realize that. If you are able to find someone who will understand and love you through the process of healing let them in. I had to learn that I cannot do this alone; my focus was to protect my mother and grandparents, ended up hurting myself. Now my focus a mother is to protect my daughter and son, always making sure they know a life without any abuse. Now my purpose is to finish the process I should have a long time age, I got scared then when my therapist started to get too close and ask the uncomfortable questions. I will continue to write and have my stories posted to Survivor Speaks to help others. So that you can follow me on this journey of healing myself.

2 Resort Reviews
Write New Review
Leukerbad's curative waters have been well known since Roman times. Every day 3.9 million litres of thermal water flow into the private and public pools. With a total of 22 thermal pools (indoor and outdoor) Leukerbad is home to the largest thermal pool offer in the Alps. In the impressive "Burgerbad" complex visitors can enjoy 11 pools with temperatures between 28° C and 44°C, looking up at the mighty peaks all around, such as the magnificent Balmhorn (3699m) from the outdoor pools. Winter sports haven't been around so long, but there have been ski lifts here for more than 50 years. They've recently been upgraded in part but with a large poart of the clientelle of this resort here for the hot water, not the snow, the slopes are often delightfully quiet. The mixed ages of clientelle, largely from German speaking nations give Leukerbad coupled with the smart town and impressive scenery make Leukerbad a rather cosmopolitan destination.
There are three different access points to the main slopes, a chair at the edge of town, as well as a cable car and a gondola at separate departure points. Ask the ski bus driver to take you to the best on the day.
There are two drag lifts and a quad chair by the village so most skiers and boarders past beginner level take the cable car across the valley up to the bigger ski area above with 60 km (35 miles) of slopes of all levels of difficulty (but mostly reds and blacks), including some World Cup training runs. Six drag lifts a chair and a cable car connect the skiing areas of Torrent and Albinen. From the top at 2.700m there are spectacular views over the Valais and Bernese Alps with their 4.000m peaks. The heart of the ski area is the Rinderhutte, above the treeline at 2340m in the centre of a giant powder field, where seven lifts arrive or depart, including the top of the main cable car up from resort. Most of the ski lifts from here are drags. Experts should carry on up lifts E and H to the top where they'll find a succession of black trails (Numbers 3, 4 and then as you hit the treeline, hopefully not literally, 5) that can take them quickly down the full 1,200 metre vertical to resort. Intermediates can do the same thing over a longer, less steep route, from the top of lift H – taking red runs 6, 8 and 9 in succession.
There are plenty of off piste and tree skiing opportunities around Leukerbad's slopes. The best route up to get maximum vertical is to take the cable car up to Rinderhutte, then drags E and H in succession to reach the top ridge. From there, after a little hike, it's possible to make a variety of top to bottom descents, starting with the open powder field before dropping down in to the trees above the resort. To find your way, hire a guide.

Lump or Mass on Gums
Lump or Mass on Gums Symptoms & Signs
Medical Author: Melissa Conrad Stöppler, MD
Symptoms & Signs
The presence of a lump, or mass, on the gums can be indicative of several different conditions. It may be felt as a bump or hard or soft lump anywhere on the gums. An infection, such as a bacterial infection or localized abscess, can present as a mass on the gums. Oral cancers (gum or mouth cancer) or tumors of the teeth or jaw are rarer causes of a mass on the gums. A cyst of the jaw is also a possible cause of a lump or mass on the gums. Traumatic injuries and canker sores are some of the more common causes of a mass on the gums. Sometimes, the hormonal changes of pregnancy can cause a small lump or bump to form near the gum line, known as a pyogenic granuloma or granuloma gravidarum.

Books Reading Tonight
posted by April 3 at 9:46 AMon
Unless you're interested in poetry, brains, open mics, or hiking Snohomish County, it looks like a good night to stay in and read a book.
At the University Bookstore, Dr. Arthur Ginsberg reads from his new chapbook of poetry. Ginsberg is a neurologist who is also a poet, and he will read some poems and then talk about poetry's effect on the human brain. Maybe he'll explain why so many teenagers feel the need to write poetry, and maybe he'll also explain why these people think that Jim Morrison is the greatest poet in the history of the world.
Meanwhile, up at Third Place Books, Ken Wilcox reads from the second edition of Hiking Snohomish County: 90 Selected Hikes & Walks on the Coast, & in the Lowlands, Foothills & North Cascades. If you're passionate about hiking Snohomish County, this is the event for you. Well, actually, hiking Snohomish County would probably be the event for you, but if you're passionate about listening to people talk about hiking Snohomish County, this really is the event for you.
Full readings calendar, including the next week or so, here.
Also, if you haven't already, you should check out the nifty, brand-new books page, which has a ton more reviews and a mini-blog revue of the last week's books-themed Slog posts, over here.

Since its introduction in the first Human Development Report in 1990, the Human Development Index (HDI) has attracted great interest in policy and academic circles, as well as in the media and national audiences around the world. Its popularity can be attributed to the simplicity of its characterization of development - an average of achievements in health, education and income – and to its underlying message that development is much more than economic growth. The index was originally conceived by the late Pakistani economist Mahbub ul Haq, in collaboration with Amartya Sen and other scholars, as a response to their dissatisfaction with GDP as the standard measure of development. As Haq noted, "Any measure that values a gun several hundred times more than a bottle of milk is bound to raise serious questions about its relevance for human progress." Yet the HDI's very simplicity prompted critiques from the start, with some contending that it was too simplistic, while others who accepted its self-imposed limitations still questioned its choice of indicators and its computational methodology. This article discusses the concept and key insights learnt from the HDI, provides a detailed review of key critiques of the HDI, today and in the past, and explains the recent changes introduced to the HDI formula and indicators. Recent controversies are highlighted and placed in the context of longer running debates. The innovations to broaden the measurement of deprivations and disparities in human development are introduced, with some key global and regional insights.

Second iPhone 3G S tear-down filmed with another iPhone 3G SNot to be outdone by an earlier dissection, the tear-down experts over at iFixit came up with the intriguing idea of filming their own iPhone 3G S dismantling with the new video camera on a second iPhone 3G S.
In a summary of the tear-down's points of interest, the parts and solutions provider notes that opening the iPhone 3G S is as simple as the iPhone 3G, requiring the removal of only two Phillips screws before the two halves of the phone can be easily separated using a suction cup.
Externally, the new iPhone is differentiated only by its new model number — A1303 — and the lettering on the back cover, which is now shiny like the Apple logo. Similarly, the internal physical design is also virtually identical to the iPhone 3G, with iFixit reportedly "struggling to differentiate the two."
Architecturally, nearly all of the handset's components have reportedly been relocated to the front side of the main logic board, including the Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and Flash memory chips. The battery is identified as a 4.51 Watt-hours, or 1219 mAh, which is about 6% larger than the iPhone 3G's battery. Also discovered was an additional antenna connection near the dock connector, though its function remains unclear.
As for the iPhone's camera, iFixit claims quality is much improved from the iPhone 3G. For example, close-up shots are now possible down to about 5 cm, and the brightness adjusted well when picking a focus area. Meanwhile, a test comparing the time it takes the Google Earth application to load reveals the new iPhone 3G S to be "bit faster than Apple's claim of 2X speed improvement" over the iPhone 3G.
The iPhone 3G's oleophobic screen "does seem to clean slightly easier than the 3G's normal screen," according to the report. It notes that oil-proof technology evolved from waterproofing but is harder to achieve as oil has a much lower surface tension than water, so it spreads out easier and thus is harder to get rid off.
For more on the iPhone 3G S's internal makeup, see an earlier tear-down conducted by Rapid Repair.

Garlow: Civil Government Cannot Recognize Marriage Equality Because God Is The Foundation Of All Government
Jim Garlow was on "In The Arena" with Eliot Spitzer earlier this week where the two engaged in a rather tense and spirited debate over the marriage equality law passed by the New York legislature last week.
Garlow refused to say whether he agreed with Pat Robertson's assertion that no society that has "embraced homosexuality" can survive, though he did not disagree with it either, saying that great harm is done whenever God's word is violated.
Spitzer later asked Garlow if he recognized the right of civil governments to establish definitions of marriage that do not necessarily correspond to the Biblical definition, a distinction that Garlow refused to accept on the grounds that such claims are really nothing more than attempts to keep Christians out of the political process before finally asserting that God is the foundation of all forms of government:

My wordpress database was a mix of url's. Some had the domain name, some had the IP address. I think this was because I built the site first, and then pointed the domainname DNS to it for the go LIVE.
So our web host migrated us to a new server this week. I had to use the search/replace script to change all the IP based url's in the database to the new IP address. That worked great.
I then did a 2nd pass of the script to change those IP based url's to the domain name, so that my database would be uniform for future migrations, maintenance etc.
That worked pretty good.
I now have some url's left that I wanted to ask about:
These links are very close to the other links that I changed in the database except for the %7E in the middle.
Is it ok to change these links to:

Questions for Elmore Leonard
Q:Where did the inspiration for the title Road Dogs come from?
A: Road Dogs was on a list of prison expressions my researcher Gregg Sutter got for me: inmates who watch each other's back. I liked the sound of the words together.
Q: What made you decide to bring back Jack Foley, Cundo Rey, and Dawn Navarro now? What is it about these three characters that stuck with you through the years?
A: Foley was played by George Clooney in Out of Sight. I imagined George in the scenes I wrote and it worked. Dawn Navarro was the psychic in Riding the Rap, a supporting character ready for a leading role. Cundo Rey from LaBrava, another favorite of mine, also deserved a bigger role, so I brought him back..
Q: Any chance Foley and the woman he loves, Federal Marshal Karen Sisco, will be back in the near future?
A: I'm not sure Foley is up to robbing another bank. But Karen Sisco, the federal marshal in Out of Sight, could show up again; maybe working for her dad, a private investigator.
Q: One of the hallmarks of your writing is your gift for the telling detail. When Foley is offering Cundo Rey's money man, Jimmy, some advice about his skimming, he tells him that Cundo won't kill him, but he might "break your legs with a José Canseco bat." That's one of those small yet wonderfully deft touches that adds color without slowing the pace. How do you do this so well?
A: Realism is the key to my style of writing and dialogue is what keeps it moving, always in live scenes. Rather than use my voice, my language, to describe what's going on, I let the characters tell who they are and what they're up to by the way they talk. Scenes are written from a character's point of view, never mine.
Q: Many of your characters are working class stiffs and tough, intelligent broads. What draws you to these kind of characters? What do you think accounts for their popularity?
A: My women often upstage the guys; they're natural, their own person, while my cops and criminals talk the way I've observed them through research and being on the scene.
Q: What's next for Elmore Leonard?
A: Next comes Djibouti, with Dara Barr, a documentary filmmaker with the Somali pirates off the coast of East Africa.

UNCTAD and the UN Inter-Agency Cluster on Trade and Productive Capacity will "work as one" with the government of Madagascar to boost trade and economic growth on the island.
An international partnership, including UNCTAD, today launched a Swiss-funded project to support Tanzania's horticulture and tourism sectors.
Three-day debate found that trade affects – and is affected by – such issues as food security, job creation, poverty levels, productive capacity and the status of women.
Switzerland has announced funding contributions for projects that are designed to help local small-scale farmers sell their produce to tourist hotels.

Robert: Obama has every right to try and defend himself against Trump's remarks. Americans have every right to look at his foreign policy track record and make the independent determination. Trump uses hyperbole to drive his point home because, unfortunately, that is what Americans need to break the cycle of politically correct language dumbed down and delivered on a platter with Andes mints on the side. Trump's delivery is more like slop placed on a prison lunch tray and flung in front of you. You might not like the looks of it, or how it tastes, but it's reality and if you want to survive, eat it and smile.

Hi Guys,
This is my first day with WordPress and I'm trying to think of the equivalent with CuteHTML a year ago. Difficult to do, but WordPress doesn't come over to me as being as simple to use design wise as it claims to be.
I want to do something that would be really simple in HTML - add some text to my header - a subtitle. How to so it? The on-line tutorials show me how to add a photo, which i dont want to (but it would have to be a stock one anyway, not my own) but no reference to my simple query.
If I mess around with the coding just to experiment, I cannot view it in a browser to see if my alterations are okay; and If i save my work and it's wrong (which it was) I have a terrible time trying to rectify it rather than being able just to click a back-button and undo unwanted work. Will it get any better/easier? Or should I just return to adding static pages to my easy-to-use website and add a RSS feed?
Your comments are welcome as too would be the coding resolution to my problem.

Which sex is the worst about washing up? Why is it so important? We've got the dirty truth on how and when to wash your hands.
West Nile Virus
Topic Overview
What are the symptoms?
About 80 out of 100 people who have West Nile have no symptoms.1 When symptoms do appear, they start 2 to 15 days after the mosquito bite. Mild symptoms may include:
- Fever.
- Headache.
- Feeling very tired and less hungry than usual.
- Body aches.
- A rash, usually on the chest, and swollen glands (lymph nodes).
Most people who have the mild form of West Nile have a fever for 5 days, have a headache for 10 days, and feel tired for more than a month.
West Nile causes serious illness in about 1 out of 150 people who get infected.1 It can lead to swelling of the brain (encephalitis), the spinal cord (myelitis), or the tissues around the brain and spinal cord (meningitis). Symptoms of these diseases may include:
- Severe headache.
- High fever.
- Stiff neck.
- Confusion or reduced attention to surroundings.
- Tremors or convulsions.
- Muscle weakness or paralysis.
- Coma.
Call your doctor right away if you or someone you know has symptoms like these.
If you have a severe case of West Nile, symptoms can last for weeks or months, especially if the infection has spread to your brain.
How is West Nile infection diagnosed?
If your doctor thinks that you may have West Nile, he or she will ask questions to find out when you were bitten by a mosquito and what symptoms you have.
The doctor may also test your blood for antibodies to the virus. The antibodies can show if you have had a recent West Nile infection. The antibodies don't always appear right away, so your doctor may test your blood again in a couple of weeks.
You may also have other tests, such as:
- A spinal tap (lumbar puncture) to look for antibodies or other signs of the virus in the fluid that surrounds your brain and spinal cord.
- An MRI scan, which makes pictures of your brain. This scan is done to find out if you have encephalitis.
How is it treated?
There is no treatment for West Nile. Your body just has to fight the infection on its own. If you have a mild case, you can recover at home. Be sure to drink enough fluids and get lots of rest. You may also want to take medicine to reduce pain or fever. You may feel well enough to keep doing your normal activities. Ask your doctor if you need to stay home.
If you have severe West Nile, you may need to stay in a hospital so you can get treatment to help your body fight the illness.

Whilst = Boundschecker is a nice tool but there some opensource alternatives that = can be used and it's not a "must have" tool to do debugging and TOra = development. Btw, developing with mingw does not have to be all in = command line (especially debugging - gdb can be quite user unfriendly) - = you can use Eclipse CDT environment that makes developing, compiling and = debugging (with it's GUI gdb wrapper) much easier.

"Uhhh... Bonjour?" The dark skinned Civil-War style clad girl stammered.
Shrieked the three girls.
"What are you doing?" Melissa asked incredulously.
{Please excuse their impromptu wardrobe change}
"Why were you pretending to be Cecile Rey?!" Rebeka demanded angrily.
"Well.............. Maman asked me to."
"Mom ASKED you to fake be Cecile? Why?" Jess wondered aloud.
"How about we just call her in here now, Nalia?" Elizabeth suggested.
"Sure. Come on in, ma petite. Hey, I'm kinda likin' these French words." Sonali called.
A shy face peeked out from behind the door.
"Come on in Josefina." Sonali invited.
"Si, Sonali." Said Josefina, in hardly accented at all English-Spanish.
All of the FSD stared. Josefina Montoya?
They had all thought that the mystery girl was Cecile or Nellie or something.
Ivy bravely spoke up.
"Why don't you show us your trunk, Josefina?"
"Si, er, Ivy. Follow me."
The FSDs gathered around Josefina's trunk.
Marisol also decided to join them in Rebeka's new Roaring 20s flapper dress.
Josefina's clothing lay neatly folded atop each other.
Her name was neatly written on a piece of paper.
"My Mama had my sister Francisca give me this doll before my Mama died.
I was about five years old then. I miss my Mama dearly." Josefina said quietly.
"I have lots of sisters. Ana, who is married with two little boys, Magdelena who is 18. Francisca, who is 15.
Then me, I'm 14. Then my sister Clara, she's 12.
Then the triplets, who are 12, Carmen, Noelle & Aleisha. Then come my half sisters, Consuela & Eva Rose."
"Wow. You sure have a lot of sisters!" Elizabeth offered.
"Though I miss my Mama, my aunt, Tia Dolores, married my Papa 2 years later."
"I like it here, though. It's quieter than my Rancho at home. Though I do miss it..."
So...? Do you like my new doll, Maria Josefina Montoya?
Sonali hiding.
Sonali hiding more.

Customer Reviews:
Rated 4.6 out of 5 by 29 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5 by Tdc Heavy but deliver on optics quality I bought these because I had tried them at the store and then saw that they were on sale online. Pros: large inter pupillary distance. The don't say what it is but it is probably greater than 73 mm. If you have ever tried a pair of binoculars and couldn't get that perfect circle, then you probably need a larger inter pupillary distance...the distance between the center of one eye piece and th other. Great eye relief. Which means that they work extremely well with glasses. The optics aren't the best but as good as any in this price range. Cons: These are about four ounces heavier than other binoculars that I tried but they either cost a great deal more or didn't have sufficient inter pupillary distance. The end caps are not attached to the body of the binoculars, meaning that they required a little extra effort to remove and based on previous experience, bound to be lost. Overall a good value for the price. May 31, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by Turkeyguy Love Mine Very clear view and seem to be well made. Smooth focus knob March 31, 2016
Rated 1 out of 5 by keemo I RETURNED IT IT DID NOT FEELMRIGHT IN MY HANDS. I HAD TROUBLE FOCUSING March 24, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by BUBBDO1 THE LIGHT IT PICKS UP IS GREAT I CAN SEE THE FEEDER LOOKING WITH THESE WAY BEFORE I CAN SEE IT WITH JUST MY EYES. EVERY CLEAR AND BRIGHT March 24, 2016
Rated 4 out of 5 by Dave22 Quality optics for a better price! Easy adjustment to fit to user. I have tried the rest of the brands in this class of binoculars. These have the same features for a better price. January 13, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by JOSIE Very nice binocular for the price. These are really clear, crisp image. Good FOV at distance and nice at close up also. January 12, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by mitch nice glass for the price ! this is a really good binocular at this price. Really clear and seems durable . November 10, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Thomasw1520 unbeatable value without comprimising quality rket for a dependable set of binoculars for archery hunting. I researched and checked 20 different models/brands and was set on buying a $339 pair of leupolds unti I stumbled into a Dicks Sporting goods and looked through theRedfield Rebels. At $119 the only noticable difference was that these were a little heavier, however, they were not too heavy. I have used them in the field for 1 full week and my findings are as follows: The anti-fog coating/nitrogen filled lenses work great. In Ohio this past week the temperature ranged from 37 - 65 degress in the SAME day! No fog at all. For a bow hunter it was important that I could hold these with one hand and still be able to adjust them. Redfield made that simple. I was able to see clearly. At the onset of sunrise up until about 10 minutes to dusk in thick woods...and for under $150!!! The only minor design flaw I can report was that the end caps do not have a tether line back to the binoculars. I epoxied two pieces of plastic to them and fixed it, but this is only a minor concern for me. Overall great product for an unbelievable price point. I am going to buy another pair for me dad today. November 2, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by Deerhunter Good buy for the price Good glass. Very clear. Would recommend this to anyone on a budget. October 3, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Eden2013 I like this product it is a good product . I didn't respect have good deal but need more cheaper September 29, 2015

The Cracks in the Foundation
The Yankees Have Played Poorly This Postseason, but This Shouldn't Come as a Big Surprise
As with any building that suddenly crumbles, the cracks in the Yankees' foundation have been there for some time, visible to anyone who peered closely.
The Yankees' disastrous performance in the American League Championship Series has been worse than anyone expected, with batters putting up the worst showing by a Yankee lineup in 50 years. But the warning signs have been there. From Curtis Granderson's strikeouts to Nick Swisher's struggles last postseason, this storm was brewing for quite a while—like these individual moments that forecast the looming disaster.
April 10: Alex Rodriguez goes 0-for-5 against the Baltimore Orioles
It was Buck Showalter and the Orioles who exposed Alex Rodriguez's futility for all to see last week, but the seeds had been planted long before—and Showalter knew from the start of this season that Rodriguez could be beaten by right-handed power arms. He used them liberally to wipe out the overmatched Rodriguez.
"If you look at his splits against right-handed and left-handed pitching for the season, it's not a short-term sample," Cashman said. "He has struggled with right-handed pitching this year altogether."
The Orioles knew that early on. It should be noted, though, that Rodriguez came to the plate six times in that particular game—and he managed to reach base once. He was hit by a pitch.
September 12: Derek Jeter leaves game with injured ankle
Jeter's ankle finally gave out on Oct. 13, but there were warning signs long before that.
Against the Red Sox in September, Jeter tried to beat out a ground ball, and came up lame crossing first base. He left that game with what was diagnosed as a bone bruise, and then insisted he was fine, and played through the rest of September—but at times looked increasingly hampered. Then Saturday night, the ankle finally gave way, and multiple Yankee officials say the pre-existing injury, and a later foul ball off the foot were contributing factors.
"I don't think he was playing on a stress fracture, but I think the weakness in his ankle, and the foul tip off his foot, contributed to that," Girardi said.
Although the Yankees talk often about how they've been victimized by bad luck all year with injuries, having the oldest team in baseball—with an average lineup age of 33 years old—doesn't help.
June 7: Curtis Granderson strikes out four times against Tampa Bay
Since his MVP-caliber 2011 season, Granderson has become an increasingly all-or-nothing player. By the playoffs, it has devolved to the point where he either strikes out or hits a home run. And much, much more often than not, it's the strikeout he delivers, not the dinger.
Granderson struck out 195 times in 2012, a career high and the second-worst mark in the league. His strikeouts climbed in the second half, as his batting average dropped. At the start of June, he was hitting above .260. He finished the year at .232.
On June 7, Tampa Bay pitchers struck out Granderson four times. His average dropped six points that day, and it would continue falling through subsequent months.
His average would never be higher than .260 for the rest of the season. After 15 strikeouts in 29 postseason at-bats this October, Granderson was benched Wednesday.
October 2011: Nick Swisher slumps again
During the regular season, Swisher has been a remarkably consistent hitter, posting at least 20 home runs and 55 walks in each of his eight full seasons.
In the postseason, he has been consistent in an entirely different way.
The high-energy Swisher tends to get too amped up in the pressure-packed postseason, and his hitting has suffered for it. Last season, he hit .211 in the Division Series against Detroit.
Swisher turned to meditation to try to calm himself before this postseason, and while his numbers were poor, his at-bats were at least decent through the Division Series against Baltimore. But after a few poor plays in the field in Game 1 of the ALCS, the fans turned on him, and Swisher has looked lost at the plate ever since—and at this point, his postseason struggles are as much a part of his narrative as his usage of "bro" and "man" in conversation.

Police return to victim's homeJanuary 31,2013
SHEFFIELD — Vermont State Police investigating the abduction and killing of a Sheffield grandmother more than two years ago have returned to her home to search the property.
Mary "Pat" O'Hagan, 78, disappeared from her home in September 2010. Her body was found nearly a month later by hunters in a remote area 10 miles away.
No arrests have been made in her killing.
WCAX-TV reported that detectives searched her property Tuesday to see if anything may have been overlooked.
In November a Vermont state police detective testified that Michael Norrie, a Sheffield man held on other charges, "was confessing to part of the murder" when he stopped cooperating with authorities.

Tata Motors will be developing 1,000 Tata Manzas, incorporating design inputs from Rajesh
Tata Motors has associated with the world-renowned fashion designer, Rajesh Pratap for Tata Manza. Rajesh Pratap will partner with Tata Motors' styling team which operates from its state-of-the-art styling studio, at the Pune facility. He will be helping the team to further enhance the design and stylise the interiors and exteriors of the Tata Manza.
Rajesh Pratap's attempt in the Tata Manza design project is to achieve equilibrium between handmade and high-tech, where one enhances the other, providing real solutions, a pure aesthetic. Tata Motors will be developing 1,000 Tata Manzas (a limited edition range), incorporating design inputs from Rajesh.
In February 2011, Tata Motors introduced the newly refined Tata Manza series. The Tata Manza has been given a fresh new look with refined premium dual tone interiors & fabric seats and exterior make over, delivering class apart driving experience in the sedan market. Rajesh Pratap's rich experience in the fashion industry and thorough knowledge about design aesthetics will further help Tata Motors in enhancing the Tata Manza's design.
Tata Motors has associated with the Wills India Fashion Week and Rajesh Pratap Singh has designed an exclusive theme-based collection which will be showcased at the Wills India Fashion Week. The collection theme is inspired by a road trip which Rajesh undertook in the villages of Orissa. Focusing on Ikat and handloom textile weaves, some of the experiments are part of this collection. The show attempts to initiate a dialogue and thought process on what is the relevance of handloom in the country. The theme of Rajesh's collection will also be integrated on two specially accessorized Tata Manzas, which will be the show-stopper, on 8th October 2011 at the Wills India Fashion Week.
In the late afternoon, Tata Motors was trading at around Rs159.10 per share on the Bombay Stock Exchange, 7.94% up from the previous close.

Sienna Miller has made a bold change – she's choosing acting projects based on her collaborators instead of the role.
"In the past I was always drawn to the roles, and was often really exploring characters, but then the final result was not what it was supposed to be," the actress, 32, tells Nylon in its April issue – the magazine's 15th anniversary.
"My modus operandi after I had the baby was to work with great people, no matter the capacity, even if I had a smaller part."
Marlowe, the actress's daughter with Tom Sturridge, is now 20 months, and Miller has said in the past that being a parent has given her "incredible perspective."
Miller, who stars in the upcoming films Foxcatcher, Business or Pleasure and Mississippi Grind, even rebels against the all-pervasive selfie.
"I'm not very good at the selfie face," she says. "I can do it for, like, three seconds and then I crack up."

2008 Postman's Asking the Wrong Question About Reichert
posted by October 18 at 13:00 PMon
There's a lot of controversy about Rep. Dave Reichert's latest fundraising report.
Local blogger Daniel Kirkdorffer caused the flapgetting picked up by the national lefty blogsby looking at the latest FEC reports and showing that Reichert's campaign had overstated how much it raised in the 3rd Quarter.
Corrections and clarifications ensued and the headlines changed from "Reichert out raised Burner in the 3rd Quarter" to "Burner out raised Reichert in the Third Quarter."
Indeed, Reichert raised $294,888 and his Democratic challenger Darcy Burner raised $304,901.
At issue was how much money Reichert's campaign actually raised from a Bush fundraiser earlier last summer. Originally, Reichert's campaign had the total well over $200,000, but $47,100 had to be refunded from donors who had exceeded contribution limits. So now, Reichert's camp is saying they raised $185,000 from the fund raiser.
Fair enough. But the question shouldn't be "How Much Did Bush Raise for Reichert?" (That's what Postman is asking on his blog this morning.) Who cares about that? We all know 24% Bush isn't going to be much help.
The relevant question is: "How Much Did Reichert Raise on His Own?"
Here's what Reichert's FEC report says on that score:
He raised $294,888 this quarter, including 218,234.11 from individuals and $88,000 from PACS.
So, if Reichert raised $185,000 from the Bush fund raiser and $88,000 from PAC's and his total is $294,888, that means he only raised $21,000 from individuals in his own right. That's some limp fundraising for an incumbent in a hot race.
Burner raised $273,000 from individuals, 13 times as much as Riechert's $21,000.
Reichert's Chief of Staff, Mike Shields, told me I was "going out of my way to look for a bad number." He said: "You've somehow turned $218,000 from individual donors into [a smaller number.]" Shields reasoned that the Bush money shouldn't be subtracted from the totals from individuals. "If you have a Bush event you're going to put your eggs in that basket for that quarter. These are individuals who gave to Dave regardless of where they did it."
Complicated footnote, but still bad news for Reichert:
Shields told meand Reichert's FEC form confirmsthat $35,000 of the "Bush" $185,000 came from the state party's Bush fundraising money. (Reichert and the Party agreed to share that money.) So, to be 100% accurate: Reichert himself only took in about $150,000 from the event, not $185,000. That means, in the scenario I described, Reichert got about $57,000 from non-Bush event individuals. Still, that would mean Burner got almost five times as much from individual donors.

This is more of a technique for differently shaped cookies than a recipe. Of course, your own favorite Chocolate Chip Cookie dough can be used instead of the purchased dough. The cookie bakes up around each kiss in the muffin tin. It is almost like a chocolate filled cookie. The recipe was adapted from Pampered Chef.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 (18 ounce) package refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough
- 36 hershey milk chocolate kisses, unwrapped
- Preheat oven to 350°F.

- Form each piece of dough into a ball.
- Place a ball of dough into each cup of a MINI muffin tin.
- Push a chocolate kiss into each ball of dough.
- Bake 10-12 minutes.
- Let cookies cool in pan 15 minutes before removing.
