Lots of folks travellng yesterday, full trip coming home, they might have left a few as vehicles still arriving when the boat was loading.
Conference very interesting and informative, whether one believes in Global Warming or not recent weather events indicate weather patterns are changing. Conference goal to make governments. at all levels, aware of what decisions have to be considered moving forward to accomodate these changes.

Clear,a westerly breeze @25-30KPH, a cool -7C, to rise just over the freezing mark before going down once again overnight.Similar weather pattern for the next few days.
A couple of evenings ago the first flotilla of brant made their way by infront of the house. Haven't seen them back since.
Afew traps going by this past couple of days, the nice weather have some of the fellows at least wanting to get some gear in the water. Not much else going on from a fishery perspective.

Clear, a northerly breeze, a cool -6C, temp to rise near freezing once again. Similar weather for the remainder of the weekend, a definate warming trend next week.
Emily out overnight, first weekend in a while that she has not been babysitting during the day. School dance last evening, well attended, and according the crowd I retrieved a good time had by all.
A good opportunity to get into the bush, and get some trees knocked down. Ground still soft, not a good chance to get any in the yard, but at least have it manufactured and ready to move when it dries.
By: GRANDMANAN, 10:54 AM GMT on March 25, 2011
Clear, calm, cool @-5C, to remain cool but will rise near the freezing mark as the day moves along. Weather patttern looks like the same for the weekend.

Yard now dry, water has moved off, the need to get the yardwork underway quite obvious. Rob 1&2 have been advised that once hockey is over - make no plans unless it involves getting the yard clean.

Clear calm, temp at the freezing mark, mixed bag for weather conditions today, however nothing to the extreme. Nice weather for the next few days.\
Reading the National Environment guru about arrival of Spring, we are to get it late and last. The good thing in the piece was we are expected to have another warm summer with good weather, once it gets here.
A quick trip to St. John with Donna's dad, plan to make it back on the 1:30trip. He enjoys the change of pace, and always somebody he can visit with.
By: GRANDMANAN, 10:51 AM GMT on March 23, 2011
Overcast, calm, temp at the freezing mark, just a slight nrotherly draft at the moment.Temp to go on the plus side as the day moves along, possibility of showers of some sort, either snow or rain.
Emily is getting to know the Driving Examiner very well. Parking on the hill with wheels not turned correctly combined with moving away from being parked with Emergency Brake on resulted in another visit in April. He did mention that her driving skills on the highway much improved, will take that as a positive. Much disappointment, but put it behind her in short order.
Interest at the arena remains high. especially during the week. A different story ont the weekend if weather is better, people like to be outside.
By: GRANDMANAN, 10:46 AM GMT on March 22, 2011
Mother Nature didn't get the memo that Spring began yesterday. A snow shower underway, temp @ freezing mark, snow dosen't remain on the road, but still have seen sufficent white stuff till next Christmas. A slight breeze NNW, similar weather pattern for the next few days.
Emily gives the driving another attempt at noon time, she seems confident. Remains to be seen how things will go when she goes with the same examiner once again.
Mid-term exams underway, have been assured that both have things well in hand. Emily has been working extra hard and diligent, Rob on the other hand is apparently very confident, work on homework not as evident.
By: GRANDMANAN, 10:46 AM GMT on March 21, 2011
A grand start to the new season, albiet a little cooler than one would like. Absolute calm, -9C with bright sun. Similar conditions with a warming trend for the next few days.
The 'Super Moon' definatly having an influence on the tides. This morning appeared one could walk across the bar to the Ross Island Shore. Tide running in, making up the beach in fine style, not a bore, but each glance see more of the bottom covered.
There are some waterfowel on the edge of the beach, making their way along with incoming tide. A few more geese showing up all the time, have not seen any robins, but have been told they are around.
Fishery news remains static at the moment, with a few warm days will get some of the guys itchy, but with the price the way it is not worth going yet.
By: GRANDMANAN, 10:48 AM GMT on March 20, 2011
A cool, calm morning underway, temp -6C, not enough wind to move the flag. Looking good for next little while, get the idea spring is around the area.
A great evening for visuals, we were at the wharf just as the sun going down when the brant must have made a rush into the harbour. Hundreds of them coming in just off the water, all in formation, didn't let up till they were well into the harbour. Took quite a time for them to get by our location. Also the 'super moon' very impressive, hardly needed indoor lights to get around.
Emily had a babysitting gig, Rob managed to attend Public Skate and Teen Night before he called it a day.
By: GRANDMANAN, 11:29 AM GMT on March 19, 2011
Partial overcast, deciding whether we will have sun or clouds. At the moment sun seems to have the upper hand. A slight darft from NW, temp a cool -4C not expected to get to the freezing level till tomorrow when sunny day is forecast.
Appears the bush is beckoning this morning, should be able to get around alright, at least this morning. Did a quick run last evening, places soft, but no problem getting at the trees to get them down. Getting the stuff out of the woods may take awhile till the ground dries.
By: GRANDMANAN, 10:47 AM GMT on March 18, 2011
A typical March morning, temp on the plus side to rise into double digits, overcast, breeze 20-25KPH southerly, can expect a few showers later on. The temp to stay in this range, then freeze overnight with mild temps by tomorrow afternoon.
Managed to have a few scallops gathered up for the upcoming BBQ season. No doubt will get some more as they don't last long when I remember I have some stowed in the freezer.
Fishery news quiet, a few indications that the wier folks thinking about getting ready. Notice some top poles being gathered up, and stakes being overhauled.
By: GRANDMANAN, 10:51 AM GMT on March 17, 2011
A great start to St. Patrick's Day, absolute calm, bright red sun well up over Ross Island. Temp already on the plus side, edging towards double digits by afternoon. No freezing temps overnight for next few days, both showers and sun anticipated for the weekend.
A few more geese showing up all the time, brant have not made an appearance in the harbour as yet, with the nice weather coming might entice them to pay a visit.
Local fishing news quiet, lobster price still low, not an enticement to set traps with fuel prices on the rise. Market not looking as if it will be moving upward anytime soon.
By: GRANDMANAN, 10:51 AM GMT on March 16, 2011
Overcast, temp just on the plus side, southerly breeze 10-15KPH to rise a bit as the day moves along, both temp and wind. Rain today and overnight, tomorrow looks like a keeper with temps near the double digits. Remainder of the week has both sun and rain in the forecast.
Trip to Moncton went smooth, as CHUNKS mentioned we did manage a 'quick' browse through PRINCESS AUTO. We were able to identify items we will 'need' for the next trip, a good excuse to have to go back with more time. Certainly a treasure trove of nessecary items in the store for sure.
Lots of locals travelling, boat not full either trip, another good opportunity to visit both coming and going.
By: GRANDMANAN, 9:11 AM GMT on March 15, 2011
Clear, a cool -8C, absolute calm, sunny today to rise near the freezing level. No change in weather pattern till end of the week, warmer, and moisture either showers or flurries in the forecast.
A quick trip to Moncton, Donna's dad for an eye appointment. If any luck at all we might have a moment to wanter through PRINCESS AUTO before we have to make our way back in hopes of getting on the 5:30 trip.
Kids defeated the over 50 team last night, beleive they held their own. Lots of smiles and congrats from the senior, the legs and wind made the difference.
By: GRANDMANAN, 10:41 AM GMT on March 14, 2011
A cool morning, wind from north @25-30KPH, with the time change sun attempting to make an appearance. Similar weather pattern for the remainder of the day.
The geese are beginning to straggle in, no large flocks, a few pairs at a time. The main group will not be far behind.
March Break now concluded kids back in school today, they have been drifting through the house getting ready, no conversation just drifting.
By: GRANDMANAN, 11:43 AM GMT on March 13, 2011
The sky beginning to change froma great start to the day with lots of sun, now becoming overcast. A draft from SW, temp just above the freezing mark, anticipate more rain in short order.
A large crowd to attend the hockey game, the folks from 'away' victorious. I was looking for a good crowd, but not the level that showed up. The crowd enjoyed the entertainment, another indication the facilty was long overdue.
Emily has returned to the fold, at least her body is in residence. Now remains to be seen just when her mind joins the rest of her from Quispam.
By: GRANDMANAN, 12:04 PM GMT on March 12, 2011
Lots of rain overnight, difficult to see any snow, certainly none between the house and the shore. Breeze 15-20KPH SSE, showers still underway and can be expected till tomorrow. Remaining warmer sun will hide till first of the new week. Fog making an appearance the Ross Island Shore just disappeared.
Rob below decks, Emily returns on late boat tonight, seems somewhat reluctant to do so. A novel;thing for her to attend a movie on Friday evening, and bowling yesterday in the afternoon.
Hockey game and hockey clinics the order of the day, with the team coming from Fredericton.
By: GRANDMANAN, 11:52 AM GMT on March 11, 2011
Showers underway, still NE @15-20KPH,wind direction to change southerly, temp and wind to rise along with showers changing to rain all weekend.
Quiet here overnight, Emily in Quispam, Rob male bonding getting in the last visits till start of school first of the week.
Oldtimers team from Fredericton coming tomorrow, hope they are sailors, if not definate advantage to home team. Team giving clinics tomorrow afternoon for the kids, or anybody that wants to take advantage. Should be a good time, arena certainly getting used by all age groups. Women have garnered another time slot, yesterday at 4:30PM, popularity of the game for them anoher pleasant surprise.
By: GRANDMANAN, 11:45 AM GMT on March 10, 2011
Wind easterly this morning, making the cool temp of -4C seem colder. Lots of moisture in the air, 15-20KPH, expect temp to rise above freezing. Southerly this way comes with warmer temps, wind, and continous rain.
Travelling on the mainland yesterday found signifigantly more snow remains than here. Getting around St. John not a problem, the reports of potholes wherever you go certainly not exaggerated.
Lots of families travelling during the break, vehicle deck not full coming or going, however just about every available seat had an occupant.
By: GRANDMANAN, 10:26 AM GMT on March 09, 2011
Wind now from the north, as a result temp a cool -9C, 10-15KPH, to remain cool for the next couple of days, southerly and rain for the weekend.

Fishery news quiet, if the mild weather stays a few days then guys will get anxious to put some gear in the water.
By: GRANDMANAN, 11:54 AM GMT on March 08, 2011
A different morning today, a cool -7C, clear, a draft from WNW keeping the skies clear for today. Temp to rise on the plus side then drop again overnight to minus in the double digits.
Weather pattern good for the maple syrup guys, hearing that tapping underway in the Sussex area. The hobby guys here not making any noise as yet.
Hockey last evening, have an import from Whitehead bunking with Rob. Kyle really enjoyed the game, the oldtimers once again, another tie. No shootout as both can maintain some level of bragging rights once the trash talk begins at the end of the game.

Remains windy, wet and mild, temp 7C, wind from SE @ 30-35KPH.A few showers overnight, calling for rain later on today. Temp change in the offing with lower then moderate once again, wind shift to north by tomorrow.
Rob returned on 7PM trip, felt it was a little rough, but not enough to make him sick. They managed to get most of Saturday on the slopes before the weather turned to rain and sleet. He had a good weekend by all accounts.
No clammers infront of the house this morning, but can see at least one on the bar. Temp not bad, but weather conditions less than ideal.
By: GRANDMANAN, 12:16 PM GMT on March 06, 2011
Stormy weather remains the order of the day, overcast, 5C temp, southerly breeze 25-30KPH. Looking for rain today and tomorrow, no below freezing temps till end of the week.
Spring must be coming, large flocks of brant yesterday in the Marsh and Duck Island Sound. Also a solitary goose on the lawn no that the snow cover has retreated. Will be a little while before the brank make their way infront of the house, at least they are moving inshore.
Emily overnighted with her charges, already reported in this morning, all hands doing well. Rob on the other hand one must assume all is well in his world as no contact since Friday when dropped him off at school. The trip across this afternoon might not be to his liking, but he has been getting more accustomed to the rough weather.
By: GRANDMANAN, 12:32 PM GMT on March 05, 2011
Mostly overcast, wind from south @ 25-30KPH, appears to be increasing in strength. Temp above freezing, getting up to 5-8C with some rain by late this afternoon. Warmer, windy and rain for the next few days, longrange still telling us that above freezing for daytime highs well into the month.
The folks heading south all on the trail by this time, place somewhat like a ghost town. Other families skiing at different locations. The last hurrah before spring.
Rob should get his day in at Crabbe Mountain, rain inland later on tonight. Emily babysitting later on for the day and overnight.
By: GRANDMANAN, 11:47 AM GMT on March 04, 2011
Calm,clear, cold @-16C, to remain cold till tomorrow when southerly influence kicks in for next several days. Lots of wind and rain in the forecast with above freezing temps expected for at least next ten days.
Rob off to Crabbe Mountain for snowboarding this weekend, should get in the day tomorrow, rain by late Saturday. Emily on the other hand working from after school till Sunday afternoon babysitting, at least one of the them is gainfully employed.
Lots of waterfowl in the harbour this morning, still have not seen any here or near the marsh. They should be making their way closer to inshore anytime now.
By: GRANDMANAN, 11:48 AM GMT on March 03, 2011
Bright, cold sun this morning, temp a bone chilling -15C, with winds from NW @ 30-35KPH giving us a windchill factor of nearly -30C. Temp to rise only slightly, southerly tomorrow, much warmer with rain by end of the weekend. Transitional weather going on for sure.
As the sun gets higher sea smoke beginning to make an appearance in the harbour. A few ice pans making their way out of the harbour, certainly no waterfowl enjoying the sun so far this morning.
Hockey last evening, 50+ versus the 15-17 yr. olds, game interesting. Old crocks won by two, level of competition high on both sides. Entertaining, all involved enjoyed the give and take, and looking forward to the rematch next week.
By: GRANDMANAN, 11:43 AM GMT on March 02, 2011
Sky dull even with sun well up and little overcast, temp 2C, wind SW @30-35KPH. Weather pattern bouncing back and forth between warmer and cold temps for the next few days.
Yard a mess, however the sun did make inroads on the ice coveer yesterday. Walking still treacherous due to the amount of ice that remains. Hopefully today will get rid of some more before one of us takes a fall.
Longrange suggesting most of the country can expect a late arrival of spring. A good thing on the prairie, to reduce the flood threat, we are spared with the arrival being 'normall', whatever that is defined as.
By: GRANDMANAN, 11:46 AM GMT on March 01, 2011
Sun making its presence known, wind from NW @25-30KPH making the -3C temp feel like -12C. Cold this next couple of days with above temps later on in the week. Longrange temps some days above normal others below, an indication that things are changing for the next season.
The kids took on the oldtimers last night at hockey, for the third time. The games have become more competitive on each occasion, last night the young legs won. Can't imagine the Grey Cup meant anymore to those on the ice, lots of fun for those watching as well.
The weather yesterday started with a few hours of substantial snowfall, gradually got warmer till snow become heavy rain. Temp dropped overnight, yard now has approx. 3 inches rutted frozen slush, a great chance to roll ones ankle. At least the kids get off to school today.

Cursive: A Brief Background
If you have ever found yourself in a museum, watching a film about the middle ages, or received a letter from your grandmother, chances are you found yourself deciphering words created from long strings of unbroken, web-like letters. Far removed from the blocky, overlarge letters you wrote in primary school, this ancient, flowing form of handwriting is known as "Cursive." If you are older, you probably remember learning to write cursive in school, but if you are from a younger generation it may be that you have never been taught to use or read this cryptic form of writing.
Cursive, sometimes referred to as "script" or "joined-up writing" is a style of handwriting in which each of the letters within a word are joined together to give the script a flowing appearance. Words written in a cursive style are typically made in a single pen stroke though this varies from person to person and between styles. The idea behind cursive is that joining the letters together can ultimately make handwriting quicker, easier, and more attractive to read rather than blocky, unconnected letters.
Cursive, or joining letters in a flowing form, exists in many written languages including Russian and Arabic. In English or when using the Latin alphabet, cursive is divided into casual cursive and formal cursive. Casual cursive is a more everyday form of writing that utilizes both joined and separate letters.Formal cursive is the form that has traditionally been taught in schools and consists entirely of joined letters. Formal Cursive has famously been used in historical national artifacts, such as the United States Constitution or the English Bill of Rights.
Cursive is mandatory in languages like Arabic, in which the script flows together and connects by design. In languages that use the Latin alphabet cursive is more a means of formalizing handwriting rather than a necessary means for the language. Cursive has existed in some form in the western world since Roman times and has featured in written language for even longer. Despite the fact that cursive has been a familiar trapping in literature for centuries, its place in the modern world is one that is frequently debated and uncertain for a variety of reasons.
Traditionally, Cursive has frequently been taught in elementary or primary school.However, this is a tradition that has been steadily declining for some time. While cursive was once a mainstay in public education, the advent of word processing, the prevalence of computer use, and changing school curriculum (such as the adoption of Common Core in the United States, a curriculum that does not have provisions for Cursive) has caused cursive to become much less ubiquitous in the United States and Europe. According to a piece from the Washington Post entitled "Cursive Handwriting is Disappearing from Public Schools", forty-five of the fifty United States have adopted a curriculum for their state public schools that does not require cursive to be taught to students at any level. Although changing curriculum may appear to be responsible edging cursive out of education, it is likely that the curriculum is simply changing to adapt to a technologically saturated world.
The prevalence of modern technology like tablets and laptops seem to be primarily responsible for the disappearance of cursive from the education system. The laptop computer and the tablet have replaced written notes in most college classrooms, eliminating the utility of handwriting skills such as cursive. Likewise, digital communication methods such as e-mail and text messaging have supplanted handwritten letters as the norm for written or long-distance communication. This has lead many to believe that cursive is an obsolete or useless skill to learn.
How to write cursive letter Q
Nonetheless, cursive is still a writing style that many will encounter in their day-to-day lives and thus it is important to be familiar with cursive letters. Although it is less common today, cursive is still a beneficial skill to possess. Some states, such as Tennessee and California, have attempted to reinstate cursive in English classes or plan to reintroduce cursive to the curriculum in the near future. Additionally, research has found that learning cursive can have educational benefits. A study conducted in Quebec found that students who were taught cursive in school had higher spelling results and better grades. The researchers also claim that learning cursive at a young age helps children avoid common errors such as writing letters backwards, as cursive letters are designed to be connected and thus cannot be written backwards. Studies such as this suggest that cursive, though obsolete in use, still has real world application.
With these benefits in mind, cursive appears to be a skill that warrants proficiency. This includes both knowing how to read and comprehend cursive handwriting as well as being able to write in cursive yourself. The following will serve as a brief tutorial on writing the letter "Q" in both the upper and lower case cursive forms. If you follow the steps and copy the strokes indicated by the pictures, you'll be using these cursive letters in no time!
The cursive letter "Q" is an easy letter to learn with the proper instructions. Cursive is infrequently taught today, and is easily forgotten by anyone who has fallen out of practice. Thus it can be difficult to remember how to form many cursive letters should you grow rusty. What follows will be a guide on how to form both the capital and lower case forms of "Q" in cursive.
Here is an image of the capital case of a cursive "Q."
As we can see, the capital "Q" is formed by a single pen-stroke. Beginning at the top of the line, the pen should curve around and then reverse direction, coming down diagonally to the bottom of the line where it switches direction again. Remember to place a loop at the beginning of the letter and then another at the bottom of the curve before pulling right to add the tail. The stroke should be dragged off to the right where it can join together with the "u" that always follows.
The capital case of "Q" is not unlike the number "2" and should generally take this shape. However, as cursive is a part of handwriting, the shape of the letter may be different depending upon who is writing.
Here is a more simplified version of a cursive Q. This upper case form is more similar to a standard Q, and the only difference is that the tail at the bottom of the Q is dragged out to connect to the following letters.
This altered form of Q demonstrates that different styles of lettering are frequently used in cursive writing, especially in casual cursive where whether or not a letter is joined is typically dependent upon what the writer considers easier or more expedient. Cursive can be considered an art style in the same vein as calligraphy, and thus creative license is frequently taken with various letters.
Once you have mastered writing out upper case Qs, you are ready to move on to practicing with lower case Qs. The lower case form of the letter is a little more complicated, but with some practice it can also be quite easy to learn.
Here we have a lower case form of Q in cursive. The lower case is more difficult to learn because it is more complex. Beginning at the top of the stem, your hand should curve to the left, down, and back up towards the stem again as you create the q's loop. Then, bring the stem down below the line the Q is on and circle back around to create the tail to connect to the following letter. Again, pay attention to the loop formed as you go back up from the bottom of the stem to create the tail. There should be a loop below the tail. However, there is no loop on the stem above the tail. This letter can be tricky to form, so the best way to improve upon writing it is to practice over and over again!
As with any element of writing, cursive becomes easier with time and with practice. Cursive can be difficult and alien to begin with, but with practice it can become second nature. Soon you may find yourself struggling to write with un-joined letters! Cursive is an elegant, flowing form of writing that grows more beautiful with time and with practice. Once you have achieved mastery of writing in cursive, it can be enjoyable to write in cursive simply to see the words form with gentle, sublime curls and waves.
With this information you know have a little background of the use and benefits of writing in cursive, and you are also able to write words using the cursive Q. Try writing out a handwritten letter to a relative, or write a short note in cursive to someone you love. You may be surprised by what you create! As always remember: practice makes perfect, so practice, practice, and practice again!

The purpose of Computational Chemistry sub-Core is to provide computational/modeling support for the investigators within the Program Projects. Computational chemistry and molecular modeling techniques will be used to gain structural/functional insight into specific molecular interactions present in the biomolecular complexes studied within different projects of the PPG. This sub-Core will integrate experimental data produced by Projects and other Cores in the Program with theoretical methods in order to produce structural information needed to elucidate the nature of interactions in these biosystems and the relationship between their structure and function. For example, the sub-Core will provide atomistic models for biomolecular complexes like protein L13A-RNA complex, eNOS complex with HSP-90 and caveolin, and HDL-PON1-MPO complex, which are investigated in Projects 3, 2 and 1, respectively, using molecular visualization/building programs (Pymol, SwissPDBViewer, Autodock4 and Modeller), and hydrogen-deuterium exchange and small angle neutron and X-ray scattering calculations. The interaction interface between different components of the complexes will be constructed using docking (Autodock4). The docking experiments will identify specific interactions between amino acid residues for protein-protein complexes, or between RNA nucleotides with amino acid residues for RNA-protein complexes, or between amino acid residues and lipids for lipoproteins. All solvated systems will be subjected to molecular dynamics simulations. The trajectory resulted from the simulation will be analyzed to determine the change in the conformation during simulation, the change in the pattern of H-bonds and salt-bridges, the change in the secondary structure and so forth. To investigate conformational changes that occur on a microsecond scale and are important for the functionality of the biomolecular system, coarse-grained simulations will be performed in which atoms are grouped together in beads and a bead-to-bead simplified force field is used. The theoretical understanding resulted from the computational/modeling investigation will be further used by the Projects to design new experiments.
This sub-Core will provide modeling support in defining the detailed atomistic structures in solution for different protein-protein, protein-RNA and protein-lipid complexes investigated in Projects 1, 2 and 3. The sub-Core personnel will interact with other researchers working in the Projects in order to facilitate the design of new experiments suggested by theoretical insigths obained from the computational analyses.

Great set, soft and cozy
This set looks great, and is so soft and comfortable. I bought 2 different colors of these for my daughters' room, and they both look fabulous. They are well-made and the fabric is soft. The pillows look good. We are so happy with these!

Big Ten bloggers Adam Rittenberg and Brian Bennett will occasionally give their takes on a burning question facing the league. We'll both have strong opinions, but not necessarily the same view. We'll let you decide which blogger is right.
The season openers are rapidly approaching, and several Big Ten teams have a lot on the line in Week 1. We both agree that Michigan State, dubbed the preseason league favorite by both of us and others, has the most to lose as it takes on a new-look Boise State team in East Lansing. So today's Take Two topic is this: Besides Michigan State, which Big Ten team has the most to lose in Week 1?
Take 1: Adam Rittenberg
It's Penn State. No college football team is more excited to get back on the field than the Nittany Lions. No fan base in America wants to see a football game more than Penn State's. People want to feel good about football at Penn State, and it starts Saturday against Ohio. The spotlight has been on this program for months, and everyone is going to tune in to see how the team performs after so much turmoil and transition. "Everything's riding on this season," fullback Michael Zordich said last week. "It's very important for us to go out and win." And what if they don't? What if Penn State loses to Ohio, a good MAC program with a good coach (Frank Solich) and a good quarterback (Tyler Tettleton), but a team Penn State is still supposed to beat? A loss would change the positive sentiment around new Lions coach Bill O'Brien. It would validate what many doom-and-gloomers think will happen to the Penn State program, and it will move up the start of the downturn. Rather than things getting bad for Penn State in 2013 or 2014, the backslide would begin immediately. I think a lot of folks are overstating the impact of all that has happened on this particular season. Penn State still has a chance to win seven or eight games, especially with this schedule and with what it returns on defense. But a loss to Ohio will be a major blow. It will leave a lot of folks in Happy Valley -- players, coaches, fans -- rattled and questioning the program's future.
Take 2: Brian Bennett
Penn State is a good call. I think Minnesota and Indiana both need Week 1 wins as well to build some momentum in their programs. But I'm going to go with Nebraska. The Cornhuskers have had good teams the past few seasons, but have lost four games in each of the past four seasons. Most programs would happily take a 10-4 or 9-4 year, but Nebraska isn't most programs. Players like Taylor Martinez talked boldly this offseason of competing for the national title, and Nebraska fans are hungry for at least the school's first conference title since 1999. While losing to Southern Miss in Week 1 wouldn't damage the quest for a league championship it would cause a lot of grumbling about Bo Pelini by the vocal Big Red fan base and get the 2012 season off to the exactly wrong kind of start. The Golden Eagles won 11 games last season, but replaced head coach Larry Fedora with Ellis Johnson and four-year starting quarterback Austin Davis. Unlike Penn State, Nebraska enters the year with grand expectations, confident about its defensive improvement and Martinez's hard offseason work on his passing mechanics. All those good feelings would immediately be erased with a Week 1 upset.

When you refer to plants you take in, are these already in pots or are
they in the ground and you've previously dug up & potted to take in?
If you're concerned about cold and they are in pots, you could wrap the
pots with a bit of insulation. If in the ground, you could add a winter
I bet you're right about not wanting to be soggy. But would plastic heat
up too much under summer sunshine, not allow air circulation? Perhaps a
few perforations wouldn't hurt. I know nothing about Plumerias, just
guessing. Here, when I want to avoid sogginess, I use a rose cone which
insulates but does allow for air circulation. Burlap works too, or
netting that encloses leaves stuffed around the plant.
I'm not suggesting that zone 5 tactics would necessarily work in Zone 9,
but possibly some of the reasons behind these tactics would have
something in common with your situation. I agree, there comes a time
when hauling things in and out just gets to be too much.

Category talk:Ethnicity
|This category is of interest to the following WikiProjects:
In the context of these pages, ethnicity and/or ethnic identity shall be defined as an identification category, which, unlike other sociological identification categories (age, sex etc.) does not have clearly defined boundaries. These boundaries in some instances and according to a particular situation can be and are manipulated by the incumbents to suit their own interests. As a category of identification, ethnicity is also a combination of self-identification and identification by others and these two may or may not coincide. While the basis for self-identification is the belief in common descent, common cultural traditions including language and religion, as well as memories of migration, colonization or conquest, identification by others is based primarily on the physical, cultural and behavioural characteristics which are most obviously different or are perceived to be different from those of the identifier. This of course varies according to the situation and context. For example, a person may see himself or herself as an Ibo, Yoruba or Shanti while in North America or in Europe he or she will be perceived as simply "black" or African. Similarly, a person may consider herself or himself to be a Swede, Irish, Czech or Russian, but in Africa or India , she or he may be perceived to be "white" or European. This principle applies to individuals as well as to groups of individuals. On a personal or an a group level, individuals can and do manipulate their own identity according to the logic of the situation, as they perceive it. An Indian immigrant from Fiji if asked about his ethnic identity in Canada may identify herself/himself as an Indian, Fijian, Indian-Canadian, Fijian-Canadian, Canadian, British Colombian or may agree to be lumped into a psychological or sociological survey category of Indo-Pakistani. This of course would all depend on the logic of the situation, as she/he perceives it. This can be described as a Weberian approach to ethnicity, emphasizing the political and manipulative aspect of that category (Abner Cohen, in "The Leson of Ethnicity", A. Cohen Ed. URBAN ETHNICITY, Tavistoc Publications, London, 1974). Ethnicity, therefore, as understood here, is not a deterministic fixa but rather a tool for social action used by rational human beings. In Max Weber's own words: "any cultural trait, no matter how superficial, can serve as a starting point for the familiar tendency for monopolistic closure" (M. Weber, Economy and Society, University of California Press, Berkley. 1978:388). Ethnic membership does not, however, by itself constitute an ethnic group. It only facilitates, or is used as the basis for the formation of groups, particularly those politically oriented (citation needed). According to Weber, the belief in common ethnicity "ethnische gemeinsamkeitsglaube" is strongly inspired by the political community "politische Gemeinschaft", interested in promotion of self-interests (Weber, 1978:389). Ethnic membership or ethnic affinity in itself is insufficient to transform itself into an ethnic group even though an affinity automatically assumes disaffinity or exclusion from some other ethnic memberships. There has to be an individual, or a group, which can articulate ethnic aggregate's interests in order to transform it into an ethnic group with the concrete social action. One of the most important prerequisites for this to occur, is the mutual intelligibility of the behaviour of members, which is usually, but not necessarily facilitated by the common language, religious beliefs and customs. According to Weber, these elements of diversity are similar if not the same, as the elements, which determine status differences. Behind these ethnic diversities, however, there always seems to be present a notion of "chosen people" which is only a pendant to status differentiation expressed in horizontal co-existence. While status differentiation rests on subordination, ethnic repulsion may take hold of all conceivable differences, some of which can become then a symbol of ethnic membership, such as hairstyle, beard style, turban, yarmulke, etc. When the group, formed on the bases of ethnic membership, persists over a long period, it can evolve into a category of nation, which shares many characteristics with the category of ethnicity, the most important of which is the belief in common origin. In fact, E.K. Francis in his 1947 article "The Nature of Ethnic Groups", AJS, 52, 392-400, refers to ethnicity as "a nationality without consciousness". Nationality should not, however, be confused with citizenship. People with the same citizenship may have different nationalities as for example in the former Yugoslavia and the former Soviet Union . In the English speaking world nationality seems to be synonymous with citizenship. This leads to some confusion, as for example in Canada, where it is proper to refer to the Aboriginal population as First Nation, but from the English-Canadian point of view, inappropriate to use term nation for the French in Quebec . A similar situation exists with respect to language. Common language is considered to be a basis for nationality but the autonomous polity or a "Nation state" may or may not be based on the common language. A nation state with one official and common language (Germany, Japan, France, Denmark etc.) may exist next to a nation state with multiple official languages to satisfy the needs of different ethnic or national entities within it (Switzerland, India, Belgium, Canada, former Yugoslavia etc.)

He don't care about calories,
Saturated fats,
Or heart disease,
Obeseity stats,
Puts him at ease,
He's a fastfood junkie,
He loves a big chinese,
An indian,
Or KFC,
Burger king,
Or a maccy D's,
He's a fastfood junkie,
His trousers are now a squeeze,
More take aways,
And deliveries,
A heart attack,
Is a guarentee,
He's a fastfood junkie,
T.V ads are a tease,
Showing BBQ ribs,
And processed cheese,
Fish and chips,
With mushy peas,
He's a fastfood junkie,
This man is hard to please,
Theres no wonder,
He finds it hard to breathe,
With clogged up veins,
And capillaries,
He's a fastfood junkie.

Quote:Its funny because I was at a BBJ seminar with Relson Gracie who showed an escape from the triangle choke after it is locked in tight which works extremely well. However, I have never once seen it used in MMA competition. In fact, Relson claimed he can escape anyone's triangle choke with it, and you know what, I believe him. In fact a while ago after about a month and a half training I used it to escape the triangle choke of a guy with 4 or 5 years training behind him.

EOD Marines Teach Students About Robotics
DVIDS | Feb 09 2015
CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C. (Jan. 29, 2015) – Students of Ms. Shedd's robotics team are working tirelessly to prepare for the annual robotics competition in Raleigh, North Carolina. They spend every day after classes and every weekend building a machine capable of picking up and moving objects. When they had the chance to see military robots designed for reconnaissance and bomb disposal, the students were ecstatic.
The Swansboro High School Robotics Team sat in awe as three Marines set up and demonstrated two robots in their classroom on Jan. 29, 2015. After the Marines from Explosive Ordnance Disposal Company explained some of the capabilities and statistics of the Mk2 Talon and the Mk1 Packbot, the students enthusiastically lined up for their turn to operate the operator control unit.
"We want the students to know that there is always a way they can keep improving," said SSgt J. Losordo, an explosive ordnance disposal technician with 8th Engineer Support Battalion and native of Quincy, Massachusetts. "There is always something better that they can build."
The club is largely led and taught by the students themselves along with the help of a few volunteer advisors. The team relies on sponsorship and donations from the local community for funding.
"The students spend a crazy amount of hours working on their robot," said Barbara Shedd, an engineering teacher at Swansboro High School and native of Radford, Virginia. "For the Marines to come out and show them these robots means everything to them."
"We love being on the robotics team because it is hands on and I love the problem solving aspect," said senior Mitchel Fink.
The students don't need any prior experience in robotics to be on the team and they teach everything from digital electronics to soldering, explained Fink.
Between taking turns navigating the bots up a set of cinderblock steps and racing them down the road, the Marines told the students what it was like to work with robotics as a career.
At the end of the demonstration, the students proudly showed the Marines the robot they were building for the upcoming competition. The Marines admitted that they were impressed by the student's work.
"It's so great for the students to see these robots and learn about all the possibilities for a future in robotics," Shedd said. "We want them to know that there are so many options for them to continue doing what they love."
The Defense Video & Imagery Distribution System (DVIDS) is provided as a public service operated by Third Army/U.S. Army Central (ARCENT) on behalf of the Department of the Army in support of all branches of the U.S. military (Navy, Air Force, Marines) and its Coalition partners serving in the U.S. Forces Central Command (CENTCOM) area of responsibility.

The location is absolutely perfect with lots of eateries nearby. I appreciate that the goodies could be stored in a fridge, however, I never saw any of the hostelguests in the kitchen (or maybe they were still sleeping around 8:30am) - it was mostly occupied by the staff.

Bien situé, c'est son + grand atout. Terrasse sur le toit, accessible à tous, très sympa ! Par contre les proprio, sympas, habitent sur place, donc dans les parties communes... autant dire que personne ne s'y attarde (c'est juste pas possible) et donc pas de discussions avec les autres voyageurs. Dommage. La chambre (4 lits) était propre. Grands casiers dans les chambres, il faut louer les cadenas si vous voulez les fermer (ou avoir le sien). Prix équivalent vous pouvez mieux au mm endroit...

Great location to backpacker street and we walked to everything in the city from here. The road of the hostel is busy but quiet at night. There are lockers in the room big enough for the backpack and lockers in the 24h reception for valuables although we just used the lockers in the room. Would recommend for a chilled out/friendly atmosphere. Met loads of nice people staying here and we had a great night for NYE.
Thank you very much for your excellent review! we are so appreciated that you recommended us as a top choice of accommodations and highlighting great location...Also, We greatly appreciate you recommend us to other travelers. We wish you have a great travels and look forward to welcoming you back to our hostel.

I had a single room in this place for one night. It was really nice i came in late and they were there waiting for me. I had a coffee and banana in the morning and watched the little alley it is located on start to bustle. Close to the touristy area, but nice and secluded too.
