Like many Moms I like to keep a Home Organization binder. I started this about 2 years ago after reading the book Steady Days. I found that by keeping myself organized I was able to accomplish a lot more in a LOT less time, and I generally enjoyed my days more. So why is it that when I moved last year (from Kansas to North Carolina) that I stopped keeping my binder? I'm not sure what happened but somehow with all the change it fell by the wayside, along with my general feeling of well-being.
It took until we moved again just last month (just across town this time) for me to realize I needed to get that binder back in action and fast! I pulled the poor abandoned thing out of the depths of my desk and got to work on a fast revamp of its contents.
I used this adorable printable from TaiDye for my front cover-a reminder to keep prayer at the forefront of my mind through my day. I also created a Fruits of the Spirit printable for the back cover-as these are always characteristics that I try to encourage in both myself and my sons.
As for the interior of the binder I created a Weekly and Monthly Chore list and laminated them so that I can mark completed tasks with an overhead marker and reuse them over and over. There is also a Weekly To Do List, a Library List for me to keep track of the books we check out and their due dates, Dates to Remember reference list, and a Grocery List. As an extra thought I created a "Things I am Grateful for" list where I can quickly jot down the small blessings in my life, special moments with my family, or anything else I am grateful for.
My binder is far from finished but I already feel better having gotten back on track. It was so helpful before, and with a deployed husband and a third little boy on the way I really need to do everything I can to stay organized and "on top" of caring and managing our home and family needs.
Here are some wonderful sites with printables and other great tips to help you get started if you'd like to make your own binder:

A week later than some people predicted, the news has broken. NetApp has bought SolidFire for $870M. This continues the trend for established storage companies to acquire start-ups with great flash products rather than building their own. SolidFire initially targeted the service provider market with its scale-out all-flash array. In the last year or so, SolidFire has taken aim at enterprise data centers as well. In both of these markets, NetApp is well established as a vendor of disk-based storage arrays. However, it has been losing market share due fundamentally to a lack of a modern solid-state product. The FlashRay product that NetApp developed has failed, leaving NetApp no option but to acquire.

Another Missile Fired in the Cisco vs. VMware SDN War
Yesterday I was reading about Cisco's fourth quarter earnings results, as you do when you are bored and waiting for the next episode of EastEnders to start—well, we all have to take a rest from SDN goodness every now and then. Now, this was interesting for two reasons. It was the last quarter under the leadership of big bad John Chambers and the first announced by new head honcho Chuck Robbins (sounds like a cross between a cage fighter and a liberal comedian). Firstly, congratulations are in order on the results—Cisco exceeded analysts' predictions of $12.6 billion in revenue, with $12.8 billion and a per-share profit of 59 cents, up almost 4% over the previous year, and an overall year-over-year increase of 4%.

The 2009–2010 influenza pandemic saw many people treated with antivirals and antibiotics. High proportions of both classes of drugs are excreted and enter wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) in biologically active forms. To date, there has been no study into the potential for influenza pandemic-scale pharmaceutical use to disrupt WWTP function. Furthermore, there is currently little indication as to whether WWTP microbial consortia can degrade antiviral neuraminidase inhibitors when exposed to pandemic-scale doses. In this study, we exposed an aerobic granular sludge sequencing batch reactor, operated for enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR), to a simulated influenza-pandemic dosing of antibiotics and antivirals for 8 weeks. We monitored the removal of the active form of Tamiflu®, oseltamivir carboxylate (OC), bacterial community structure, granule structure and changes in EBPR and nitrification performance. There was little removal of OC by sludge and no evidence that the activated sludge community adapted to degrade OC. There was evidence of changes to the bacterial community structure and disruption to EBPR and nitrification during and after high-OC dosing. This work highlights the potential for the antiviral contamination of receiving waters and indicates the risk of destabilizing WWTP microbial consortia as a result of high concentrations of bioactive pharmaceuticals during an influenza pandemic.
Society has never been more prepared for the emergence of pandemic influenza than at present, due in part to the development and stockpiling of a novel class of antiviral drugs, neuraminidase inhibitors, notably: Tamiflu® [oseltamivir ethylester-phosphate (OP)] and Relenza® (zanamivir). National stockpiling of neuramindase inhibitors began in earnest with the emergence of the 2009 influenza pandemic (H1N1). These stockpiles were dominated by Tamiflu® largely owing to its relative ease of administration (tablet), as compared with Relenza (disc inhaler). Tamiflu® is a prodrug, which, after absorption into the blood, is converted to the active antiviral, oseltamivir carboxylate (OC), in the liver. Approximately 80% of an oral dose of Tamiflu® is excreted as OC in the urine (He et al., 1999), with the remainder excreted as OP in the faeces. Both the parent chemical and its bioactive metabolite ultimately reach the receiving wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), where it was projected to reach a mean of ∼2–12 μg L−1 during a moderate and severe pandemic, respectively (A.C. Singer et al., unpublished data).
Current evidence suggests conservation of OC as it passes through WWTPs (Fick et al., 2007; Accinelli et al., 2010; Ghosh et al., 2010; Prasse et al., 2010; Soderstrom et al., 2010); hence, rivers receiving WWTP effluent will also be exposed to OC throughout a pandemic. Concentrations of between 293 and 480 ng OC L−1 have been recorded in rivers receiving WWTP effluent during the 2009 pandemic (Ghosh et al., 2010; Soderstrom et al., 2010). Several studies have demonstrated the potential for the removal of OC from freshwater (amended in some cases with sediment) and activated sludge (amended in some cases with a granular bioplastic formulation entrapping propagules of white rot fungi) via adsorption, microbial degradation and indirect photolysis (Accinelli et al., 2007, 2010; Bartels & von Tumpling, 2008; Sacca et al., 2009). A key factor in determining the amount of OC removal appears to be the length of incubation, with batch incubations of 40 days resulting in the degradation of up to 76% OC in the presence of an activated sludge inoculum (Accinelli et al., 2010). However, batch experiments do not reflect the activities of a WWTP as the hydraulic residence time (HRT) for wastewater in the activated sludge system is commonly only a few hours and degradation would therefore be expected to be much lower. In a pandemic scenario, Tamiflu® use would rapidly increase over an 8-week period as the outbreak spread and would follow a similarly rapid decline after the peak (Singer et al., 2007, 2008, unpublished data). We hypothesize that the prolonged exposure of WWTP microbial consortia over the course of a pandemic might hasten the generation of OC degraders in the activated sludge bacterial community, thereby minimizing the risks posed from widespread environmental release.
The key processes in WWTPs [removal of organic carbon, nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P)] are microbiologically mediated by activated sludge. Activated sludge systems are constantly exposed to pharmaceuticals from a variety of sources (Daughton & Ternes, 1999); however, their effective toxicity remains unclear (i.e. impact on nutrient removal performance). The functioning of activated sludge under a pandemic scenario is of concern, given the projected heavy usage of not only antivirals but also antibiotics (Singer et al., 2008, unpublished data). There is recent evidence that bacterial neuraminidases are important in biofilm formation (Soong et al., 2006; Parker et al., 2009). Consequently, antiviral neuramindase inhibitors themselves may inhibit bacterial neuraminidases, which could prove detrimental to the structure of the suspended biofilms that make up activated sludge. While this is yet to be fully investigated, current data indicate that the ecotoxicological risks posed by OC are low (Straub, 2009).
In addition to examining the potential evolution of OC degradation in a microbial consortium, we aimed to investigate the effects of OC and antibiotics on activated sludge bacterial community structure and function and activated sludge biofilm structure. We implemented a 56-day, pandemic-scenario dosing regime of OC and three antibiotics (with different modes of action): amoxicillin (cell-wall-synthesis inhibition), erythromycin (protein-synthesis inhibition) and levofloxacin (DNA-replication inhibition), in a laboratory-scale sequencing batch reactor (SBR) operated for granular enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR). The three antibiotics selected for this study are among the most frequently used antibiotics, within their class, for the treatment of influenza-associated bacterial pneumonia (Lim et al., 2007). An additional high-OC dosing period without antibiotics was used to examine OC toxicity and WWTP function in the absence of the presumed antibiotic stress.
Materials and methods
Reactor operation
A laboratory-scale SBR had a working volume of 8 L, with 2 L of treated wastewater removed and replaced with synthetic influent wastewater every 6 h, resulting in a HRT of 24 h. The sludge age was approximately 24 days. The synthetic influent wastewater contained either acetate or propionate as the sole carbon source (alternated on a fortnightly basis; Lu et al., 2006) and orthophosphate (P-PO43−) at concentrations of approximately 1100 mg chemical oxygen demand (COD) L−1 and 23 mg P-PO43− L−1, respectively (see Supporting Information for further details). The SBR was operated for EBPR, an activated sludge process for removing phosphate from wastewater. It is appropriate to investigate because it is commonly used in full-scale WWTPs and the bacterial community and biochemical transformations involved are well characterized (Seviour et al., 2003). The current study used granular activated sludge as the reactor biomass. This is a novel activated sludge technology that selects for aggregates (>200 μm) that are larger than those occurring in conventional floccular activated sludge (de Kreuk et al., 2007).
The operational parameters necessary for EBPR include introducing the wastewater into an anaerobic phase of operation, with an aerobic phase following. Typically, during the anaerobic stage, the carbon source is taken up and phosphate is released by the bacteria, then in the subsequent aerobic phase the phosphate is taken up by the bacteria, over and above that which was released in the anaerobic phase (Seviour et al., 2003). Before dosing of pharmaceuticals the SBR was performing good EBPR for more than 6 months. During dosing, the reactor operation did not change, except that the principal carbon source in the reactor feed was no longer alternated between acetate and propionate, but rather only acetate was used in order to reduce the number of variables. OC and antibiotics were added as detailed below.
OC and antibiotic dosing
The OC and antibiotic dosing for the SBR mirrored projected usage in the United Kingdom, as per A.C. Singer et al. (unpublished data), with a stepwise dosing up to the pandemic peak. OC and antibiotics were dissolved in sterile distilled water and added to autoclaved acetate feed. The maximum amount of each antibiotic and OC in the reactor influent was: 36 μg L−1 OC, 70 μg L−1 amoxicillin, 30 μg L−1 erythromycin and 10 μg L−1 levofloxacin. During the 14-day OC-only dosing period, the reactor influent contained 360 μg OC L−1 (see Supporting Information, Table S1). At the peak of the simulated pandemic, the concentration of antibiotics and OC were ∼2 to 20 × projected mean concentrations in WWTPs as per A.C. Singer et al. (unpublished data), during a moderate pandemic (R0=2.3, where R0 indicates the average number of infections generated by an infectious individual in a fully susceptible population) with conservative estimates of Tamiflu® use within the populations (30% of infected people utilize OC). Although the experimental concentrations of pharmaceuticals in the reactor were above the mean projected levels (A.C. Singer et al., unpublished data), they reflect a realistic worst-case scenario.
Measurement of OC
OC was quantified from the influent and effluent during a single cycle of the SBR on the final day of each dosing regime. Approximately 10 mL of each sample was filtered through a 0.22 μm disposable filter (Millipore, Billerica, MA) into glass GC vials and kept at −20 °C until measurement. OC concentrations were measured by direct aqueous injection of the sample into an Agilent 6410B Triple Quad LC MS at the National Laboratory Services (Wales) (see Supporting Information for further details).
Biochemical analyses
Mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS), effluent suspended solids (effluent SS) and mixed liquor volatile suspended solids (VSS) were measured according to standard methods (APHA, 1998). Ammonium (N-NH4+), nitrate (N-NO3−), nitrite (N-NO2−), orthophosphate (P-PO43−) and acetate concentrations in the liquid phase were analysed at the AWMC Analytical Laboratory (Brisbane, Qld, Australia) (see Supporting Information for further details).
Granule structure analyses
Visual inspections of whole granules were performed using an Olympus SZH10 stereomicroscope with a DP70 digital camera. Approximately 25 mL of mixed liquor was removed from the SBR at the end of the aerobic phase and photographed in a glass Petri dish against a black background. Volumetric size distribution of granules was determined by pumping approximately 30 mL of mixed liquor (again, removed at the end of the aerobic phase) through a Malvern laser light-scattering instrument (Mastersizer 2000 series, Malvern 457 Instruments, Worcestershire, UK).
T-RFLP analysis of 16S rRNA genes was carried out as described previously (Slater et al., 2010) (see Supporting Information for further details).
Biomass samples were taken during the aerobic phase of the SBR and fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde in phosphate-buffered saline at 4 °C for 2 h. FISH was performed as described previously (Amann, 1995) (see Supporting Information for further details).
OC degradation
Over the experimental period, there was evidence of varying rates of removal of OC (Fig. 1). These were equivalent to between 2% and 41% removal per 6-h SBR cycle [estimated for each dosing period based on measured influent OC concentrations, four draw and fill cycles per day (Fig. S1) and assuming a constant rate of removal for each dosing period]. There was a general, although not consistent, trend for the removal rates to be lower in the latter part of the experiment (i.e. after day 35) than in the earlier part (Fig. 1).
Nutrient removal performance
Phosphate levels from full-scale WWTP effluents are legally regulated. The laboratory SBR was operating for biological phosphorus removal and thus this formed the basis for monitoring reactor function. Effluent P-PO4−3 levels during the 40-day prepandemic simulation period and the first 21 days of the simulated pandemic (i.e. 0.1% and 1% OC dosing) were between 2 and 7 mg L−1 (Fig. 2). Notably, effluent P-PO4−3 levels decreased to <1.2 mg L−1 by day 28, indicating a well-functioning reactor. However, from day 33 at the beginning of the 100% OC-only dosing, effluent P-PO4−3 values became erratic and were typically high, reaching a maximum of 34 mg L−1, indicating reduced EBPR performance. This reduced EBPR during the dosing period was confirmed by other measures of performance. Firstly, the anaerobic phosphate release (Fig. S2; used by others previously as a measure of EBPR performance; Zilles et al., 2002; He et al., 2008; Slater et al., 2010). Secondly, complete anaerobic consumption of acetate, which occurred for the 40-day prepandemic period and throughout the simulated pandemic period, failed on day 56, when consumption became incomplete (data not shown). Thirdly, nitrification (which occurred despite the operation of the SBR primarily for EBPR), as evidenced by aerobic nitrate production (Fig. S3), which decreased from over 0.85 mg N-NO3− g−1 VSS for the prepandemic period and the first 35 days of simulated pandemic to below 0.4 mg N-NO3− g−1 VSS at the end of the 100% OC dosing period.
Granule structure
The MLSS (equivalent to cell dry weight) in the SBR was between 12.68 and 15.12 g L−1 from 7 days before dosing to day 56 (data not shown). Granule particle size distribution was between approximately 80 μm (10th percentile) and 1320 μm (90th percentile), with a median granule size of approximately 620 μm (Fig. S4). Neither of these measures showed significant trends over the experiment. However, there were indications from light microscopy that some of the granules lost some structural integrity during the dosing as there was an appearance of fluffier material at days 49 and 58 (Fig. S5). Additionally, there was evidence of an increase in the effluent SS from approximately 100 mg L−1 before dosing to approximately 400 mg L−1 on days 42 and 56 (Fig. S6), suggesting that sludge settling was poorer due to granule biofilm disruption.
Bacterial community structure
The diversity indices derived from 16S rRNA T-RFLP data indicated that there were changes in the community structure over the dosing period, with the Shannon diversity index decreasing over the last 14 days of dosing (Fig. 3). This appeared to be a result of the development of a less even community structure (Fig. S7) rather than the disappearance of particular operational taxonomic units (Fig. S8). While there was therefore some evidence of a change in the diversity indices, i.e. those describing aggregate community characteristics, there appeared to be little change in the relative abundance of two of the model organisms commonly found in EBPR systems. The relative abundance of a key organism responsible for EBPR, Candidatus 'Accumulibacter phosphatis' (Hesselmann et al., 1999), was 27.1% on day 0 (92% congruency score) and 22.8% on day 42 (end of 100% OC dosing; 96% congruency score), as assessed by quantitative FISH. The relative abundance of a glycogen-accumulating organism and known EBPR antagonist, Candidatus 'Competibacter phosphatis' (Crocetti et al., 2002), was below 1% on days 0 and 42.
This is the first study in which the removal of OC, microbial diversity, nutrient removal performance and granule structure has been tested in a simulated activated sludge system exposed to OC and antibiotics in pandemic-scenario dosing.
There was up to 41% removal of OC per 6-h SBR cycle, with the most successful removal occurring in the first 35 days of dosing. It may be that in a real pandemic scenario, 35 days of significant removal at the beginning of an epidemic would reduce the amount of OC released into receiving waters. However, during the SBR operation, there was no evidence of significant OC removal after day 35. Hence, there does not appear to be sufficient selective pressure for the enrichment of OC degraders in the system investigated.
There was no evidence of any adverse effects on reactor performance during the first 28 days of the simulated pandemic (i.e. up to 36 μg L−1 OC, 70 μg L−1 amoxicillin, 30 μg L−1 erythromycin and 10 μg L−1 levofloxacin). There was, however, evidence during and after the two-week high-OC dosing period (days 29–42; 360 μg L−1 OC) of a reduction in EBPR and nitrification, bacterial community diversity and disruption to granule structure. This evidence of ecotoxicity in a simulated WWTP complements, but also contrasts with other studies that found no OC toxicity in freshwater (Accinelli et al., 2010) and activated sludge performance (Straub, 2009; testing limited to COD removal only). The positioning of the high OC-only dosing period in the middle of the pandemic scenario (i.e. dosing of OC and antibiotics) meant that we were not able to completely differentiate the causes of the perturbation to community structure and function; however, it is clear from this study that WWTPs may experience reduced efficiency during an influenza pandemic owing to the high concentrations of bioactive pharmaceuticals, such as antivirals and antibiotics.
The SBR chosen for this study had a relatively long history of stable EBPR performance (>6 months). EBPR failure has previously been shown to occur as a result of competition with glycogen-accumulating organisms (Bond et al., 1999) and from bacteriophage infection (Barr et al., 2010; Barr et al., 2010); hence, the loss in reactor function in this study might not be due to pharmaceutical exposure. However, as quantitative FISH analyses did not demonstrate a decrease in the relative abundance of Candidatus 'Accumulibacter phosphatis', as would be expected if bacterial competition or bacteriophage predation was to blame, it was concluded that pharmaceutical exposure was the more likely cause. As the SBR was operated as a granular (rather than floccular) sludge, it remains untested whether floccular sludge would respond differently to such exposure. Granular sludge systems do have some operational differences to floccular systems, such as longer sludge ages, higher mixed liquor SS and lower available surface area, all of which might affect sludge–pharmaceutical interactions.
It was only after dosing high concentrations of antibiotics and OC that effects on EBPR performance were noticed. Therefore, it may be that it is only under severe pandemic scenarios that disruption to WWTPs is of concern. Nonetheless, this research highlights the reality of this chemical risk to WWTP function and the need for additional mixed-pharmaceutical dosing studies in WWTP systems. These will be important for optimizing WWTP operation to contend with threats to WWTP function, and for understanding and modelling the release of pharmaceuticals into the environment.

Doug Padilla reviews the Cubs by position this week. Today he focuses on shortstop.
CHICAGO -- Starlin Castro got off to a hot start in 2012, got in a little over his head for a stretch and then got paid, officially cementing himself as one of the players the Chicago Cubs are committed to building around.
The Cubs shortstop showed the human element involved with even the most talented of players. Nobody has questioned the raw ability of Castro, especially when it comes to what he is able to do at the plate. But the 22-year-old showed that he is not immune to the mental challenges that come with playing the game.
His ability to focus every game and on every pitch still is not at the level the Cubs would prefer. High-profile mental gaffes continued to show up, most notably when he forgot how many outs there were in an early-season game and then when he tried an ill-advised base-running maneuver later in the season.
He was far from the only one to lose track of the situation or make poor decisions on the field this year, but the Cubs know that it is one of the few weaknesses of his game and is an easier fix than turning somebody into a high-level hitter or fielder.
There were other focus issues this season, though, that weren't entirely Castro's fault. As the Cubs engaged Castro's agent in contract-extension talks, Castro's play suffered, especially when it came to his offense.
Castro was still batting .300 in June when contract negotiations reportedly began to take place, but by Aug. 7 his average dipped to .272. He entered the season as a career .304 hitter in the major leagues after hitting .310 in the minor leagues.
When Castro's seven-year, $60 million extension was finalized Aug. 28, he was batting a slightly improved .276. But from that date until the end of the season , he batted .309 with an .839 OPS, while recording 10 of his 36 walks on the season.
Those 10 walks show evidence of Castro's latest advancement. After hitting coach Rudy Jaramillo was fired in June, the Cubs tried to instill a more patient approach at the plate, something that Castro had not been adept at using.
That change in approach also was blamed for Castro's midseason slide, along with the distraction of the contract talks.
Moving forward, the Cubs hope to have a more complete hitter, who can deliver at the plate while also working opponents' pitch counts from possibly the No. 2 spot in the order, a lineup position he hasn't been able to fully wrap his arms around.
Curiously, though, Castro showed he might be ready to move back to the top of the order by having late-season success in the No. 5 spot behind Alfonso Soriano.
Defensively, Castro continues to show improvement while still flashing range that ranks among the best young shortstops in the game. His work around the second-base bag has also improved, buoyed by an even better partnership with double-play partner Darwin Barney.
Next on the agenda for improving Castro's defense is to get him to field in the balls of his feet rather than his heels to get him moving forward on his throws to first base rather than remaining at the back cut of the infield and relying too much on his arm.
The Cubs are confident the adjustments can be made and Castro's full potential can be met. A seven-year contract extension shows just how confident the club is of that happening.
WEDNESDAY: Left field.

There's no such thing
As fucking bliss.
The fucking pain is too
Fucking much,
There's only hate,
No fucking love.
It fucking tears
Though my fucking soul
I've become decrepit
Too fucking old.
My fucking heart
Misses ever other fucking beat,
What's the point of trying
We're all fucking sheep.
I don't fucking care
And neither do you,
Let's get it over
I'm fucking through.
I fucking sleep
In a fucking pit
We're apart because
I'm a fucking git.
I'm indifferent
I don't fucking talk,
I won't move a muscle,
I can't fucking walk.
This isn't a bed,
It's a fucking cell
I scream past the silence
You know I'm not well.
I don't fucking cry
Fucking tears
I'm too weak,
I'm too fucking broken to even fucking speak.
I'd rather be dead,
Than fucking wasting space,
Lead me to fucking slaughter
Make sure you get the going rate.
I had a fucking ally
Until he fucking died,
Filthy fucking turncoat
He could've fucking tried.
My throat is fucking shrieking
As I wait for it to end,
I'll fucking sell myself to science,
I've got a corpse to lend.
Just fucking bolt me to a table,
Torture me so I squirm,
I'm only fucking dying,
Maybe I should fucking learn.
So at the fucking end of it,
I still exist here but I'm fucking gone.
The sun is fucking shining,
But the fucking shadows cast too long.
My fucking family want an answer,
Let's see what they fucking get.
I've got fucking cancer,
My fucking fate has been set.

Plumca has had to resort to hunger strikes to stand up for Windows 7.
A 5-year-old guinea pig named Plumca (short for "Plumcake") is reportedly the last hold-out in her office when it comes to upgrading her PC.
"She absolutely refuses to make the jump to Windows 8," says Tom Halifax, the Director of IT at Coleridge Mutual Insurance Co. "I mean, I can't really blame her. Windows 7 is a beautiful OS. And what's up with the whole 'Metro' thing? Who needs that? But still, the latest updates close a lot of security holes in our network."
Plumca's resistance has included hunger strikes and chaining herself to her laptop.
"I'm not sure they can fire her over it," says Judy Crosshaven, a co-worker. "But she's not making the bosses happy, that's for sure."

Banking, Credit Market Imperfection and Economic Growth
We develop a new model that links capital market imperfection to banking emergence and economic growth. It is shown that the banking system emerges endogenously after a first stage of slow economic growth. Interestingly, economic growth increases after the emergence of banking but remains under its potential level. This is due to a credit rationing brake which decreases progressively as the economy develops. Another finding is that a reduction of credit market imperfection reduces the credit rationing stage.

I had concerns and tought about this for long time: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xml-cocoon-dev&m=103543889904222&w=2 As an "old" XSP user I think XSP is good for some rapid prototyping and for some small sites (Matthew and Carten book stated about it clearly). The problems using XSP in webapp I painfull learned while working with it. :-( I think we will continue supporting XSP because Cocoon can be used as Web publishing framework or a Webapp framework. Also XSP is a good entry point for many people from the ASP, PHP world. They feels like fish in the water with XSP. :-D I really no wonder why peope still think XSP is the great Gig in the Cocoon town, because if you google around you will feel this is the way Cocoon goes.

Making Business Districts Work: Leadership and Management of Downtown, Main Street, Business District, and Community Development Organizations is the essential desk reference for downtown and community business district professionals and board members. It's also a complete survey of all the skills and information students will need as they emerge from school and begin work in this challenging profession. The book covers nearly all aspects of leading and managing downtown and community development organizations, from planning and implementing programs and policies, to evaluating successes and failures. Charts, tables, photographs, chapter analyses, and Web resources make this vital text even more essential. An unprecedented diversity of perspectives makes this book unique, with contributions from the United States, Canada, and Portugal, and from small, medium, and large cities. Case studies provide a sharp focus on events that have something to teach every student and professional in the field. These include a look at how Lower Manhattan dealt with the crisis during and after September 11, 2001, how Los Angeles deals with an overwhelming homelessness crisis, and the 20-year planning and development of a major revitalization project in Kalamazoo, Michigan.

When Dark King walks slowly in his gloomy kingdom
The Sun goes to the dance party with his lovers
The Moon cries bitterly in the arm of sparkling stars
The Wind can't stand seeing his mother's falling tears
He is deep in thought on the top of Himalaya
Crossing Pacific Ocean to find where his father is
The Sun is kissing an attracted rainbow in Hawaii
He wanders sluggishly to the North Pole
Don't know his teardrops or anything created a flood in San Francisco
He goes alone in the Sahara…no human sound..only wind blowing
Where to go ? How to live now? The wind cries hopelessly
"Poor boy! Poor boy! Go with grandmother! I am here with you"
I see bright wings are opened to hug the poor Wind….

It's a nice poetry. You should organize it in line instead of a paragraph though. you know like:
When Dark walks slowyl in the gloomy air,
The sun goes to the dance party with his lovers,
The moon cries bitterly in the arm of sparkling stars..
you know what I mean. :)
But it was still a great poem. Keep up the good work!
P.S. I have several poems that you can read if you want. :)
slowly* xD (Spelled it slowly)

When will you come back?
This person is awesome,
but you're no where to be found.
Maybe i'll see a glimpse of you,
Maybe it might just be wishful thinking.
But damn,
I can't even count how many stars,
maybe all the stars,
that i would wish apon for you.
I'd pull a thousand
a million.
If it didn't work;
at least i tried.
If it does,
welcome back.

Training Pastors…Reaching the World!
As Mentor and Model to thousands of preachers, teachers, and pastors around the world, Dr. Olford's influence cannot be measured. He has had a significant role in the lives of many, including his longtime friend, Dr. Billy Graham. He has been called "The Preacher's Preacher." Dr. Stephen Olford was one of the world's most dynamic Christian leaders of the 20th century. Throughout his life he taught boldly and effectively about the effectiveness of expository preaching, evangelistic teaching, and spiritual growth. Dr. Olford's life is a challenge to the Lords people, demonstrating what can be accomplished when a Christian embraces the Lord's call to service and allows the Holy Spirit to empower that service.
The Stephen Olford Ministry Legacy (SOML)is an exciting new project initiated by the Olford family to preserve and extend the powerful preaching and teaching ministry of Dr. Stephen F. Olford. The SOML continues to equip, empower, and release faithful pastors and church leaders to teach Expository Preaching, utilizing Dr. Olford's teaching materials. The scope is international focusing especially on areas where pastoral training is limited. This project will give you access to the rich legacy of Dr. Olford's archived sermons as the Media Center Project is developed, as well as opportunities to help provide training for pastors around the world.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'GS Boxers' started by darmahman, Sep 10, 2005.
One of my favorite pics. Friends and I on the CDR.
Cool. I am a history buff. Thanks for the pic.
By the way. Nice bike. ;-)
Don't you love it when they do that?
After much deliberation, this '12 Triple Black replaced my trusty 07. After cresting 1100 miles, I'm often surprised how much better the camhead performance is. Not just down low, but the rocketlike top end.
Still. It's buzzier than the 07, and I have to sort out the front-wedge feeling of the seat. But every time I roll back up the driveway, I'm smiling so that says something.
Here are some spontaneous, horrible phone pics.
You bet!
You call that a pass?
Are those seats standard on the 1200GS triple black in US? They look like GSA stock seats which I like because in the high setting there is less of a lip between rider and passenger.
What kind of lights are those with the red rings?
I am fairly certain the high ones are the Clearwater Krista's and the low ones are the Clearwater Glenda's. Nice setup!
Yep, those are GSA seats. Had them on the 07, which allowed me a more relaxed knee angle. They're a bit stiff, but the seat on the 07 'broke in' a bit after some miles. There seems to be more forward angle on the '12, I'm looking into raising the front 10mm or so.
I've found on my '10 GSA seat that yes, you do seem to lean forward. It's not recommended by BMW at all, but I put the front of the seat on high, back of the seat on low and found it balances it out much better. You also sit fractionally further back where the seat is wider... makes a lot of difference. As I said tho, BMW doesn't like you doing it at all, but I haven't had any issues.
I have new GSA seats on my GS. Mounting the seat this way keeps the weight off my nuts too.
Heh heh...Weight off nuts = PRICELESS!

Choose from Many Beautiful Options of Countertops for Waterloo Homes
Stonex Granite & Quartz Inc. is one of the top leaders of fabrication and installation of natural stone and quartz products.

Countertops for Waterloo Homes
Countertops for kitchen and bathroom come in many different styles and materials. Choosing new
countertops for your Waterloo home or condo
can be daunting, or it can be an exciting, fun, and satisfying process. The first thing that you need to do is to decide what your criteria for countertops will be. These considerations might include:
Of course the appearance of your countertops is paramount. Some people prefer a traditional look, others like sleek modern lines. You will want to consider a number of different things that fall into this category, including material, colour, pattern, finish, edges, and more.
The type of countertop you purchase will depend also on how much money you've budgeted. Something to remember is that premium countertops increase the value of your home. In fact, studies have shown that elements such as stone countertops are common in homes that sell for more than the asking price.
Environmental Concerns.
Many of us are concerned about our environmental footprints. Choosing an eco-friendly countertop is one way to help reduce yours.
Of course you want to ensure that any design element you choose is safe. It may also be important to choose a material that's hypoallergenic.
Consider your own lifestyle. Any given type of countertop may be just right for one household, but the wrong choice for another. If you have small children you may need a hardy countertop that can withstand the occasional orange juice spill. Or you may be downsizing after retirement and want to fulfill your lifelong dream of having white marble countertops. No matter what your lifestyle, there's a countertop that will work perfectly for you.
Countertop Materials
The material you choose for your countertop
will greatly influence the look and ambience of the room. For example, stainless steel counters will give your kitchen a cool, professional, almost industrial look. Wood counters, on the other hand, look rustic, and project a certain warmth. Stone of all kinds lends elegance and timelessness.
You will need to take your budget into account when choosing a material, but be sure to research each option carefully. You may, for example, think that stone is too expensive, but there's a wide range of choices available. If you choose an exotic granite that has to be shipped from Brazil, you'll probably be paying substantially more than if you choose a quartz slab, yet both are beautiful stone counters. Some people also "mix and match," using more than one type of countertop material.
Finding the right Waterloo area supplier for your countertop can be a key part of the process. No matter what material you choose, be sure to find a company who can supply, fabricate, and install your countertops. Check the company's track record, and ask the right questions. The fabrication process is important, since companies that employ state of the art CNC technology will be able to produce your countertop more quickly, efficiently, and precisely.
Visit a showroom today, and find just the right type of countertop for your living space!

Probably nothing new here, but I love this process. Working on texture from a paper image. It's a nice effect to mask the original background texture over the type and logo while also adding the color (blue). The result is a seam-less texture, or in this case a "seam-full" texture (notice the creases in the paper continue through the type and diamond vector!)

Polo Fresh!: Lacoste Undergoes a Logo Makeover for 80th Anniversary
Photo: Peter Saville's 80th Anniversary Lacoste Polo
Lacoste is celebrating their 80th anniversary… without its signature crocodile logo. You read that right. A limited edition polo shirt line, designed by graphic designer Peter Saville, features different variations of a green logo in squiggle or outline form. Saville gave his take on the brand's makeover:
"They still look like Lacoste shirts even if they don't have a crocodile on them. It's about requisitioning the mainstream to translate an idea that is not about selling."
The series includes 160 polos (80 for men, 80 for women), and were showcased at an event in Paris last Thursday evening. The shirts, all in size 4, will go on sale starting Nov. 15 at leading global concept stores for $547.
Not sure about the weighty price tag? A more commercial edition, in eight versions each for men and for women, will retail in Lacoste's regular distribution, for $182.
StyleBlazers, what do you think of Polo's redesigned logo?

Bad parking , smelly bins
On arrival we tried to park but it was very awkward and couldn't find anywhere to park our car for ages.
We then had a wait ages to check in and then when we did get our room it was next to some of the smelliest bins ever. The smell wafted in was very horrid. Nice room though comfy bed wouldn't say worth the price we paid though

What has happened to the Pelham, staff seemed disorganised and lacking experience.
My husband ordered a pint and the bar staff couldn't pull a pint. The breakfast was chaotic and our food arrived at different times; however the quality of the food was great. The housekeeping was also lacking, low level surfaces were dusty and hadn't been cleaned for sometime. The hospitality tray had no spoons and only one biscuit between the two of us. It's such a shame because this hotel has a lovely feel and the garden is beautiful with wonderful views. I don't normally post negative reviews but at £152 per night b&b they need to up their game. Come on Pelham you can do better!

Loved the hotel.
Very nice decor, lovely for a romantic night away. Double bath is always a nice touch. The only thing was we didn't reserve parking in advance (no option to) but were still aloud to park on site even without a free space. Would recommend

Pelham House Hotel
The hotel itself and the grounds were lovely.
However we found the customer service to be extremely poor with staff appearing to be untrained. We were with a party and had alot of trouble ordering drinks and food ( we didn't m manage to order any food in the end as it proved too problematic). There didn't appear to be enough trained staff and the staff that were there were clearly tired and unhappy. On leaving the hotel we were told we had to pay the full amount of £188 before departure as they claimed that this had not been paid even though to my awareness we had already paid for the room in advance through this website. I am still noww not convinced that we haven't paid twice for the room, making it a very expensive mini break. Completely shambolic is how I would describe customer service at this hotel. Puts me in mind of Fawlty Towers.

Beautiful rooms.

Excellent stay
We had one night stay in Room 13 which was lovely and large, with a quirky bathroom hidden round a corner.
The room was spacious, quiet nice temperature, comfy big bed and with a stand alone bath. We had dinner in the restaurant which was tasty, as was breakfast the next morning.

A high quality, reasonably priced hotel in a pretty town.
Superb room, sympathetic decor.
Attentive and friendly staff, but a little disorganized. I had to wait a good ten minutes for someone to check me in upon arrival. I ordered a rib eye steak and asked if I could have it rare. I was told it would be very bloody, but it arrived more medium than rare after a good half hour wait. My cooked breakfast order on the first morning was lost before it arrived in the kitchen- again I had a 35 minute wait before discovering this. (I skipped breakfast the next day), but I am sure, judging by the fresh toasted bread, that it would have been very good. Still, a very nice place to stay.

Relaxing stay
The hotel was lovely.
It was all very good quality from the bedding and decor to the great locally sourced breakfast. Would stay again.

Bit disappointed with the room for price that we paid.
There were no plugs sockets anywhere near the bed only on the opposite side.
There was tea making facilities but nowhere safe to plug the kettle in unless you unplugged the mixture of wires that were under the desk. The bathroom was okay but the shower needs a regrout and more towels.

Secret Life
€ 22,99
Lieferbar innerhalb von 2-3 Tagen
April 1993
BeschreibungIn "Secret Life", Professor David M. Jacobs of Temple University takes us into the private world of those abducted by aliens, letting them describe in their own words what it is like to be abducted. Based on interviews with sixty individuals and more than 300 independently corroborated accounts, "Secret Life" presents the most complete and accurate picture of alien abductions ever compiled. PDr. Jacobs takes the reader on a minute-by-minute journey through a typical abduction experience and describes in detail the bizarre physical, mental and reproductive procedures that abductees claim have been administered by small alien beings. Jacobs draws from these interviews a profoundly unsettling reason behind the abductions: aliens are conducting a complex reproductive experiment involving the conception, gestation, or incubation of human and alien hybrid beings.

Remember Calvinball from Calvin & Hobbes? That great game insisted that the rules keep changing, and you never know quite what's coming next. Apparently, Self, The Breakouts, The Company and the Feds are fans. That's the only way I can explain all the ups and downs and reversals this week on Prison Break. Plus, Michael is fine with fanaticism, T-Bag gets religion, and then religion gets T-Bag — right where it hurts.
This spoiler knows its Psalms.
Don Self has a problem — he's got most of Scylla, but Michael and the Breakouts kept one vital piece. So Self mounts an assault on Breakouts HQ, firing gas canisters into the warehouse in the hopes of smoking everyone out. Fortunately, Michael sent Lincoln outside to watch out for just this situation, so Linc puts a stop to that. But Self is also prepared: He's got Gretchen, who has a very large gun. No score for either side.
The Breakouts have a cunning plan — they secrete Sucre in Self's car behind a false back in his car trunk. Apparently, Self and Gretchen don't notice the sudden loss of trunk space. However, Self has his own tricks — one of the gas canisters he fired into the warehouse is actually a mini ultrasound-type camera, so he can track the Breakouts movements. We're tied at one all.
Sucre calls in from Self's hideout, a grotty downtown hotel that rents by the hour. Michael MacGyvers some gas-canister launchers out of discarded plastic pipes, then rigs the fire escape. Sucre gets the skeezy desk guy to call up and tell Self that folks are looking for him. When Gretchen does recon, Sucre jumps her. Self escapes out the fire escape, but Michael's trickery means that Self falls to the ground. Michael steals Scylla and scampers. Breakouts: 2, Self: 1.
But wait! Michael gets woozy and collapses — that pesky brain tumor is acting up again! Self shows up and snags Scylla back, and Gretchen, driving a car she's stolen from Company goons who came to nab them, takes him to safety. The Company scoops up Michael. Breakouts: 2, Self: 2, Company: 1.
Meanwhile, Mahone is trying to get the Feds to help out. He goes to Felicia, his old partner, for help, and she brings on Wheeler, the sanctimonious little schmuck who was an ass to Mahone back when he was still at the Bureau. Wheeler agrees to take Mahone to the Attorney General — IF he can deliver evidence. When Mahone gets the call that Scylla is gone, he despairs, but Felicia tells him that he can still have a meeting with the A.G. Lies! Wheeler is taking Mahone into custody! Breakouts: 2, Self: 2, Company: 1, Feds: 1.
T-Bag is left at home to guard Rita and Emily, Gretchen's sister and daughter. Emily is kind of an idiot — "Are you a friend of Auntie Gretchen?" — and T-Bag is becoming more and more unhinged about losing his Cole Pfeiffer gig. Things get tense when Self tells T-Bag to waste the two if he doesn't hear from him in two hours. Then a bible salesman shows up at the door, and T-Bag gets suspicious because he's wearing a military academy ring. He beats the guy up, drags him inside, ties him up and prepares to kill him, on Self's instructions. Rita reminds him that if he kills this man, he's turning his back on Cole Pfeiffer for good. When the bible salesman is able to win at Name That Psalm, T-Bag tells Rita to take Emily and run, then unties the bible guy. Oops. Apparently it's possible to hold both Company directives and Scripture in your head at the same time — he's Company after all! The bible salesman knocks T-Bag out and brings him back for The General. Breakouts: 2, Self: 2, Company: 2, Feds: 1.
Self prepares to meet the buyer, and Gretchen's conduit, Vikan, condescends mightily. When Self learns that the buyer is on his way, he shoots Vikan and his minion. Gretchen is aghast, but Self just wanted to eliminate (literally) the middleman. I'm going to call that a flag on the play. No score.
Linc decides he's got to do anything it takes to get Michael back, so he walks into Company HQ. The General shows him Michael prepared for surgery, then tells Linc that he can help Michael — IF Linc gets Scylla back for him. Linc has to work for the Company now, just like his dad did. The General hands over a dossier: Tombstone II. What does it mean? Breakouts: 2, Self: 2, Company: 3, Feds: 1.
Dammit — the Company wins again!
Highlights, thoughts and odds and ends
- Self is unapologetic about screwing with the Breakouts lives. Just business! He says. I'd shoot him for that alone.
- T-Bag is really, really hung up on the whole Cole Pfeiffer persona that he had to give up. It was a legitimate scam, and he was good at it. I almost feel sorry for the poor, murdering psychopath.
- Michael and Sarah debate is motives for remaining fixated on The Company. I have to destroy them — that's where this whole thing started! Michael says. Sarah quite reasonably brings up that for Linc, it just started when Michael broke him out of prison. All this Company stuff? It's too much!
- Emily tells Gretchen "There's this mean man here." Gretchen brings up the heartwarming story of a mean man who used to date Rita, and who disappeared on his way to the store. I'm guessing Gretchen had something to do with his disappearance.
- When Michael MacGyvers the canister launcher, he sends Sucre out to buy hairspray and a lighter. Why send one of the men with no hair to buy hairspray? Wouldn't it make more sense to send Sarah?
- Lisa, The General's daughter, tenders her resignation — she doesn't like what she's discovered about her dad. "I wanted a son," The General replies. Nice.
- I'm bummed that Self killed Vikan — he amused me, if only because he had such contempt for Self. "Listen to me you mook! You're in the deep end of the pool now, at least act like you can swim!"
- Why oh why didn't Gretchen kill Self when she had the chance! I really hop Rita calls Gretchen and lets her know they're safe, so she can commence the ass-kicking.
