Drill |
As we all well know, the reason we train with pikes are to defend against horsemen. One of the mainstays of Twig is A Knight To Remember (aknighttoremember.com), AKA Carlo Tuzzio, and his wonderful steed, Caesar. They have done presentations at Twig before, but this year there was a field set aside for, erm, horseplay, with a jousting lists. It was there that our gallant pikemen met Caesar on the field of battle for the very first time!!!
We had worked out a rough sketch of the drill, including safety drills for our men, earlier--thank you to David Vavreck for taking point on this. We did a preliminary live drill before the show opened on Saturday, and it went very well, so we decided to do it for real at Gaffney's 1:15 drill.
The result was excellent. We had 5 pikemen including your humble servant. We put on every plate of armor we had, and for real. Caesar is a wonderful animal, but he is a horse; we were all aware of the safety issues if he spooked. We formed up in a file and charged for battle. The horseman rode down on us! At the last second he peeled off, firing a pistol. The first rank died gallantly, (thank you again, David!), and we all moved up. The second rank died gallantly--well done, Bruce! Finally we raised up our dead so we could have one more go (the ground was getting too littered with corpses for good footing). Caesar performed splendidly the whole time.
Next year we are definitely doing this again; bigger and better and on the schedule as a separate event. Check the date and mark your calendar; I can think of no better reason to take up arms. (Captain's note: People who wish to be involved in the horse charge absolutely must attend DRILL.)
Yours in service,
Mia McDavid

One proposal for a future trip was to head south to meet with a group from Texas. Lisa Gillstrom McCanna has the details on the Texas group. This is only one possibility, if you know of other likely events that should be considered, please get the details, including dates and location to staff. firstname.lastname@example.com Staff needs to get any proposals so they can decide on feasibility and worth before bringing it to the board. The board then needs to decide on the financial aspect. Please get any ideas to staff as soon as possible, be sure to include as much pertinent information as is available.
A lot of valuable information is in the current Clann Tartan Manual.

Meeting and time TBA
David Vavreck
The Yoders have graciously offered to host music once a month. We will meet at their house at 4736 12th Ave S, Minneapolis, from 7 - 9pm the 4th Monday of each month.
To contact the Yoders, call 612-825-4519 or email to firstname.lastname@example.com.
To contact your Music Chair, call David at 612-378-1973 or email to email@example.com
Thanks, and I look forward to making some noise with y'all!
We have a yahoo groups email list for the guild that we use for reminders about the meetings and topical discussions. If you want to be on the email list, request an invitation to join from Bruce at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Please contact your music chair, me, to express your interest, and to let me know what evenings would work best for you. And if you can host.
I am thinking maybe twice a month, but you can vote on that, too.
I will set it up for the day(s) with the most votes.
And if you have a better name for it than Gaffneyis Glee Club, I am all ears. It does have a nice ring to it, though.
David Vavreck
We have seven members already, and are working on a bit more refined style of music than we do in our regular music meetings.
Contact your music chair (David) if you are interested in joining up.

The following is a list of the dates of the events that are currently on the schedule for this year. The staff has met and decided to keep this running list of events in the newsletter to give you a chance to get an idea of what is going on this season as well as keep you updated to changes in the schedule.
The column titled status will include the following information.
Tentative- this means that an event organizer or Clann has expressed a strong enough interest in doing this event that it warrants reserving space on the calendar for the event.
Pending- this is the next stage of an event. This means that the Contracts Administrator has entered serious discussion about Clann doing an event but we are still not committed to the event. You should however if possible think about whether or not you may be able to attend this event.
Scheduled- this level means that the board and staff have approve the event and we are committed to providing manpower to making the event happen. When an event is assigned this level please let Julie know as soon as possible if you can or can not attend this event.
Canceled- This means that for various reasons an scheduled event has been removed from the current season. We will try and give as much notice as we can prior to canceling an event.
If you have any questions about this, please feel free to contact me regarding this matter

From Duluth, Minnesota- Take US Highway 53 northwest out of town - take a right turn on the Ugstad Rd./Lavaque Rd. Bypass, and travel north about ten miles.

From Mineapolis/St.Paul, MN-
Travel north on Interstate 35 out of the Cities for about two hours or so. After you pass the Esko/ Thompson exit, but before you get to Duluth, take the Midway Road exit. Turn left on the Midway road, which will head you north. Continue north on the Midway Road for about 12 miles or so; crossing three stoplight intersections, and then you will come to a stop sign. Turn right there onto County Road 9, the Martin Road. Travel east on the Martin road for three miles and take a left turn onto the Lavaque Road. Travel north on the Lavaque Road, for about 7 1/2 miles until you come to the Fish Lake Road. Make a left turn there, and travel west about 3/4 miles. At this point I am the only house on the right hand (north) side of the road.

Col. Gaffneyis Regiment is heading back to the Perham Pioneer Festival, this year on August 15 and 16. The Pioneer Festival is located in Perham, MN, about a three and a half hour drive from the Twin Cities. The site has convenient participant parking just on the other side of the museum buildings and, during the day, access to the canteen/cafe/flush toilets!
They also have a terrific indoor dance in said cafe on Saturday night. Those of us who went last year had a blast; we hope to see you there!
Directions from the Twin Cities:
Take I-94 West to Exit 167B, MN15 N, toward Saint Cloud.
After about 10 miles, merge onto MN10 West. Follow for about 30 miles, and stay with MN 10 W toward Motley for about another 80 miles.

Just Back From Italy...
And I'm happy to report that it was one of the craziest* trips of my life. The food, the scenery, the weather, the petty criminals, the hot cops, the ugly waiters, the men, the wine, the men.... Anyway, here's a smattering of some photos I took using my iPhone camera (after my favorite Pendleton purse was stolen, along with my credit cards and camera in Florence).
Between Milan, Cinque Terre, Florence, Rome, Tuscany, and Lake Como, my favorite place was definitely Rome – hence bolstering my belief that I am and always will be a Big City Person.
For more coverage, you can check out my AOL Travel posts on driving in Italy and 24 hours in Lake Como.
Sigh. When can I go back?
*This post is dedicated to the best flight attendant ever, Dolce, of American Airlines. Thank you, sister. THANK YOU.

Bahama Mammas
Jenny C and I are just back from a few days at the Sheraton Nassau Beach Resort, where we tore it up, laughed, danced (and injured my back on a beach lounge chair... long story...)
We made use of the Bahamas' free companion airfare offer, making this the second MLK holiday in a row that I've escaped to the Miami-Bahamas area for the long weekend.
I wonder where I'll be next year......

I couldn't agree more. I get so annoyed with people making blanket statements like, "Today's music sucks." Really? How does one dismiss EVERYTHING being made in the 21st century? If someone can't find anything to like, then that person just isn't looking.

By Names and Images: Bringing the Golden Dawn to Life by Peregrin Wildoak
There has been much interest in the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn since its inception in the late 19th Century and outward dissolution within a few decades. The mystique and secrecy of the Order, along with its utilitarian magic, its coterie … Continue reading

The unbeaten Warriors met their match.
"They were just better than us," Eminence head coach Steve Frommeyer said. The Franklin High School Panthers came to town Friday, and were bigger — both in terms of numbers and sheer physical size — than the Warriors. And the Panthers handed Eminence its first loss, 40-12.
Breaking their usual pattern of slow starts, Eminence got off to a quick one.
Heading into the 2011 season, Katie Ruff was worried.
She was taking over a Henry County High School volleyball team that had three seniors, one of which had no previous volleyball experience, a junior, a sophomore and a whole bunch of freshmen.
"I knew what I had to work with, I was a little worried when the season started out," Ruff said. But, as the season played out, "as a whole, they really exceeded my expectations."
For a few minutes against Central High School, it looked like Henry County had the right formula.
The Wildcats put up a defensive stand that would lead to their first touchdown of the night. Later, they did something few other football teams in the state have managed to do — force Anthony "Ace" Wales to fumble the ball.
But in the end, it would not be enough, as the Wildcats fell to Central, 15-54.
"They have tremendous talent, as far as speed on the field," Henry coach Jason Spencer said of the Yellowjackets.
Getting off to a slow start has become a pattern for the Eminence Warriors football team.
So far, it's worked for them, and despite the slow start, Eminence ran away with a win against Paris High School on Oct. 14.
The win assures Eminence of a first- or second- place finish, depending only upon how their Friday night game against Frankfort goes. The win also assures Eminence of a homefield advantage in the first round of the playoffs.
"Be proud of yourselves, do you hear me?"
With the Shelby and Anderson County volleyball teams warming up behind them, the Eminence Warriors gathered around head coach Stephanie Barrows.
The Titans of Collins High School had just handed the Warriors their walking papers in the 30th District tournament with a 14-25; 13-25 loss.
Barrows said it again. "Be proud of yourselves. You did something that hasn't been done at Eminence in eight years."
This time the tables were turned.
This time, the Henry County Ladycats found themselves behind the 8-ball in the third game of a match against their rivals.
This time, good fortune didn't come their way.
This time, the Ladycats fell to the Eminence Warriors, 1-2 (25-18; 14-25; 19-25). And this time, it was with everything on the line: a chance to advance one more round into postseason play.
Heading into halftime against LaRue County, the Henry County Wildcats were tied up at 13-all.
The Hawks came out of the break with guns blazing and marched the length of the field to score.
"We played really well in the first half, and then the second half... we just didn't have a very good second half," head coach Jason Spencer said. "The second half, they come out, they marched down the field and scored."
In its last three football games, Eminence High School has faced a fair amount of adversity. Primarily, that adversity has been the broken left hand of quarterback Bradley Foree. But the Warriors battled through that difficulty and built up a 6-0 record heading into last week's game at Bracken County.
A district contest, the Warriors knew their game against the Polar Bears would be tough. Bracken County was sitting on a 5-1 record, having lost only their season opener.
MacKenzie Peyton got her first putter when she was just a year old.
Now a teenager, Peyton has completed her second run in the state high school golf tournament in Bowling Green.
On Saturday, the Henry County High School freshman finished the tournament with a 24-over-par 168, which put her in 28th place in the state.
Somewhere, midway through the season, the Henry County boys golf team lost its punch.
The lack of punch showed, Henry County head coach Barney Sutley said.
In the NCKC tournament, the boys finished fifth out of seven teams. The team's best performance came from Nathan Parish, who shot an 84, about 12 strokes better than his average for the season.
Senior Matt Ricketts also shot an 84, and the team's other seniors each shot a 94. "So, definitely not as good as we could've done," Sutley said.

Why won't the Obama administration reveal how many Americans' emails the NSA has collected and reviewed without a warrant?by Trevor Timm, Electronic Frontier FoundationEFF.org Jul. 02, 2012 |

Mass. State Rep Michelle DuBois Tips Off Illegals to ICE Raids
Since last year, a few members of Congress--led by Senator Ron Wyden--have been trying to get the Obama administration to answer a simple question: how many Americans' phone calls or emails have been and are being collected and read without a warrant under the authority of the FISA Amendments Act of 2008 (FAA)? �Unfortunately, no one else in the government� seems to want that question answered. The question arose soon after Congress passed the FAA, which among other things sought to create immunity for telecoms that helped the NSA conduct warrantless wiretapping and gutted privacy protections for Americans communicating overseas.� A New York Times investigation described how, under the FAA, a "significant and systemic" practice of "overcollection" of communications resulted in the NSA's intercepting millions of purely domestic emails and phone calls between Americans. In addition, documents obtained via a Freedom of Information Act request by the ACLU, although heavily redacted, revealed "that violations [of the FAA and the Constitution] continued to occur on a regular basis through at least March 2010"-- the last month anyone has public data for. The FISA Amendments Act is currently up for renewal, and Sen. Wyden, along with Sen. Mark Udall, wants the NSA to answer questions about these violations before Congress extends the law for five more years. "We have concluded"� that section 702 [of the Act] currently contains a loophole that could be used to circumvent traditional warrant protections and search for the communications of a potentially large number of American citizens," the Senators alleged. � Yet not only have changes not been made to the law to address this vital concern, but the administration refuses to give the Senators any information on whether they're correct. Back in July 2011, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence told them "it is not reasonably possible to identify the number of people located in the United States whose communications may have been reviewed" under the FAA. Well, what about just a rough estimate?� Last week, the Inspector General of the Intelligence Community officially responded for himself and the NSA Inspector General:� "such an estimate was beyond the capacity of his [the NSA IG's] office and dedicating sufficient additional resources would likely impede the NSA's mission." �Then, almost unbelievably, the NSA IG excused itself further from oversight by saying that "an IG review of the sort suggested would itself violate the privacy of U.S. persons." That's right. �The government says that it would violate Americans' privacy for the NSA's inspector general to estimate how many Americans' privacy have been violated by the NSA. The loophole that Wyden is likely talking about appears to be so-called "back door" searches. As Wyden explains it, since communications are sucked up without an individual warrant under the FAA, there must "be clear rules prohibiting the government from searching through these communications in an effort to find the phone calls or emails of a particular American, unless the government has obtained a warrant or emergency authorization permitting surveillance of that American." �The Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI) rejected an amendment stating that as well. SSCI chairman Dianne Feinstein insisted no such loophole existed, but still refused to support the amendment that would have cleared up any ambiguity. In response, Sen. Ron Wyden commendably put a 'hold' on the FAA's reauthorization in the Senate--a procedural maneuver that will at least temporarily keep the bill from going forward without debate--citing the potential massive privacy violations that the government will not explain to the American public. Unfortunately, the House has so far refused to compel such information as well. Two weeks ago, the House Judiciary Committee passed the re-authorization of the FISA Amendments Act 23-11, yet voted down all amendments that would have forced the government to be more transparent about the communications it had collected. Rep. Jackson-Lee's amendment--similar to Sen. Wyden's request--for an "estimate" on how many times Americans' emails have been read without a warrant was rejected, despite testimony from ACLU's Jameel Jaffer laying out all the evidence that dragnet surveillance of American's communcations was rampant. The Judiciary committee also rejected an amendment requiring the release of redacted FISA rulings--which are all classified--and a shorter re-authorization period. Yesterday, the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) did the same thing, unanimously voting to extend the law for five years as well--again, with no known changes--and in secret. These bills both still need to be voted on by the full House and Senate before going to the President's desk, and without amendments adding robust oversight, transparency, and privacy protections, they should be voted down. Please call your member of Congress and tell them you strenously oppose the reauthorization of the FISA Amendments Act.� |

Recently, I created a NBA shot chart in Power BI as part of my entry to the Microsoft Power BI Best report contest and I had got a lot of questions on how I made the visual. So I decided to write a quick post on how I made the shot chart as well as use this opportunity to present my entry, which got selected as one of the Top 10 finalists in the contest.
My interactive contest entry is embedded in this post (thanks to the new Publish to Web feature in Power BI) and a full screen version of the same report can be obtained from here.
My entry is an analysis of the first 35 games played by Stephen Curry from the Golden State Warriors in NBA. The main feature of the entry is a Shot chart which shows the position from which he attempted his shots and the color denotes whether he made or missed it.
To make a similar shot chart, follow the steps below:-
1) The most important part of any report is getting the data. I had a few sources for my data (www.nbastats.com, www.nbasavant.com, www.datavizdoneright.com) from where I directly got my (X,Y) position data. But if you are really serious, you might want to look at the following blog posts which show how to scrape data directly –
How to create NBA Shot Charts in R
How to create NBA Shot charts in Python
2) Once you get your (X,Y) location data, you can import the results into Power BI and then create a scatter chart from the data.
3) Get a background image for the basketball court (I used one that I found from www.datavizdoneright.com since it had the logo of Golden State Warriors and looked nice). Now you can import the image and place it behind the scatter chart. Make sure that you send the image to the back, as you need the scatter chart on top so that you can interact with the dots by clicking.
4) Now the hard part is resizing the scatter chart to the size of the court. I turned off the X and Y axis, and then turned on the X,Y reference lines so that I know where the center needs to be.
5) Once you have found the right fit, you can turn off the reference lines also and then add the shot result to differentiate between made and missed attempt. You can also add a chiclet slicer with the opponent images to see the shots by teams as shown below.
That said, there is already a custom visual called the Enhanced Scatter Plot which allows you to put an image behind a scatter plot chart. I couldn't make my data line up with the image, and hence I had to do it the hard way. You might find it easier to use the Enhanced scatter plot directly. Hope you liked my version of the shot chart!

Pro Athlete WR-Donald Fusilier IFL Indoor Football League WICHITA WILD
Name: Donald Fusilier Position: WR/DB/KR/PR Height: 6ft 1in Weight: 195 lbs Date & Place of Birth: Aug.10, 1984 New Iberia, LA Major: Health & Physical Education GPA: 3.57 Yrs Attended: Spring 09-10 Current Residency: Lafayette, LA Cell: 225-933-2305 Email: firstname.lastname@example.com HS: Westgate New Iberia, LA. Division: NAIA/D2 College: Lindenwood University Address: L.U. 209 S. Kings Hwy Saint Charles, MO 63301 L.U. Coach: Patrick Ross Marketing & Publicity: David Mims 313-624-MIMS (6467) firstname.lastname@example.com
Donald Fusilier was born and raised in New Iberia , LA until he and his family moved to Lafayette, LA at age 9. Fusilier started playing football at the age of 10 in Lafayette, LA. His dream as a child was to play college football and then play in the NFL. He didn't get recruited out of high school due to lack of exposure. Fusilier used it as motivation and believed that he would eventually play collegiate football. At Westgate High School he was a Team Captain, and lettered in football, basketball, and track. Fusilier graduated from the 1st senior class at Westgate and was apart of the 1st team to win a district basketball championship in school history. He graduated from Westgate in 2002 in the top 50 of his class with a 3.3 GPA, but wasn't a qualifier. He enrolled at Nicholls State University in Thibodaux , LA during the fall of 2002 and did not play sports. While at Nicholls, Donald also became a member of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Incorporated.
When introduced to Semi-Pro Football, the Lafayette Hurricanes in Lafayette , LA gave Donald hope to play football again. Donald researched and discovered that Semi-Pro/ Minor League Football was designed for athletes like himself, and would provide him with a second chance at a college football career. Fusilier moved back to Lafayette in November 2007 to pursue his football career, at age 23 and four years removed from high school. Donald learned the system quickly and instantly became a starter. Fusilier helped lead his team to the Championship game and won 10-3 with his game winning touchdown. Fusilier had another successful season for the Louisiana Hurricanes and played in the League Championship June 6, 2009, which was his final game. Donald used his semi pro film to get recruited by various colleges and chose Victor Valley College . Coach Hardy of www.Chosen1Sports.com and Coach Mims ofwww.MusclesInMotionSystems.com provided Donald with options to make this great choice. Fusilier became a starter and team captain for the Victor Valley Rams. They finished the season with a 6-4 record. He closed his career at Victor Valley College with a 7 catch, 121 yd, and 2 td performance and also caught the game winning touchdown in a 4-OT thriller vs. Mt. San Jacinto College. Fusilier received calls from numerous colleges to transfer and learned his eligibility clock was running out. His enrollment at Nicholls State University and semester at Victor Valley gave him 9 full-time semesters. Because of NAIA rules he was able to transfer to Lindenwood University in St. Charles, MO. He will play one season as a senior and is a leader and mature athlete at the age of 26.
Lindenwood University opens the season ranked #2 in the NAIA National Poll and has recent success at the receiver position from the 2009 team. Roren Thomas and Marcel Thompson got invites to NFL Camps. Donald is prepared to continue this wave of opportunity for the next level.
Donald is excited about the opportunity to succeed and overcome adversity. He dedicates this season to his mother, Ms. Mary Leisa Fusilier, who passed away a week before his birthday on August 3, 2010. Donald is using the loss as motivation for his continued success. Fusilier is a proud parent of daughter, Saniaya Andrea Fusilier, who was born on May 30, 2007. Lindenwood finished the season recently on Saturday, November 20, 2010 with a 46-38 last minute loss in the First Round of the NAIA Championship Series at the hands of the Saint Francis Cougars. Donald didn't have the productive season like he wanted ,due to issues with being at Lindenwood for only his senior season. The quarterback was more comfortable with the guys that were there before him. Donald Fusilier started all 11 games for the Lindenwood Lions in 2010 and was targeted 23 times. He is looking forward to off-season workouts and a future as a professional ball player. Donald participated in a few all star games, including the www.AllAmericanBowl.com @ the Metrodome on Dec 18, 2010.

I've seen many people fight the battle against cancer. Some wins, and some losses. Every fight is different. Some people fight with everything in them; searching for healthier ways to live, changing to a more positive lifestyle, connecting with God, letting their faith lead the way, removing the negative thoughts (and sometimes the negative people) from around you. All in an effort to survive.
Trying desperately to fight the fear. And some just simply surrender to this disease, sinking and letting go of life.
Sometimes, whether you fight or not, it makes no difference, cancer is a killer.
I've experienced this disease. One day prior to completing our project "The Sound," as I was leaving the a spa, I got a call from my husband that stopped my world.
He said, "The doctor found something. A mass on my kidney." I literally dropped to my knees right there. The people around me asked "Are you okay?" and I remember saying, "No, but I will be." I went outside and walked down the sidewalk screaming for about 90 seconds. Then I called Tina and said, "Say something."
Her words to me were simply this: "I know God to be a healer. You do too. Hold on to that." Warryn was diagnosed with Renal Cel carcinoma, or kidney cancer. I'll be honest, at first, we were so filled with fear that my faith took a huge punch in the face, but we refused to let it paralyze us. I had to trust God in ways I'd never trusted him before. I had to force myself to trust God and MY FAITH WON!!
His cancer came and went so fast it was un-believable. He had an incredible doctor, but we had an even more incredible God who allowed him to walk away from his surgery, that totally removed the cancer one week after finding out he had this terrible disease. He didn't have to have radiation or chemotherapy after his procedure. Three years later, he's still cancer-free!
We have a friend who's currently fighting this disease, and while he does have to have chemo, he refuses to be sad about it. Of course, he has bad days, but he has loving family and friends who are helping him fight -- and I believe he's gonna win.
I'm not sure what your story is or whether you even believe you can fight this disease, but we want you to know you can win. Search for answers and don't surrender. Have a positive attitude. Pray, believe, and know God is a healer. Whether it be a miraculous healing or an incredible doctor, it's possible to beat this disease. And you can certainly beat the spirit of the disease through your faith. Don't give in, you can fight this!
I understand there are many reading this who think; well that ain't my story: I lost my loved one, or maybe you are reading this and have been told that there is nothing more that can be done for you. And it's not my heart to disrespect your loss or to minimize the road ahead of you. But what I know to be true is that victory in the battle with cancer has little to do with physical life or death, but more to do with the strength and energy given to living each day as a champion; fighting for your peace of mind and persevering with faith and positivity and understanding that He is with you. His love and care for you and those you love goes beyond the boundaries of physical life and death.
If cancer has been apart of your journey or is your current path, personally or via a loved one, then you are a survivor. Every day that you receive love and give love, you win!!
There is a cure out there, BUT until we find it, LIVE YOUR LIFE until you breathe your last breath!!!

Caroline Clark chose a different way to support Stick 'n' Step.
"I had heard of the UNICEF 'below the line' initiative, which challenges people to live on £5 for 5 days but this seemed too easy… So I made a plan… I was going to live on £10 a week but not for one week but for four — 28 days in total on £40."
Caroline had the grand total of £1.43 per day for food, travel, and entertainment. Before the challenge began, she put herself in training. She stopped snacking and drinking wine at meals, reduced the amount of food she ate, and started riding her bike to work in preparation. On the first day of her challenge, 10th June, she stocked up on food items, spending £15. This left her with £6.25 a week for fresh food and drinks. The early days were hard, but as the days and weeks passed, she lost weight and gained energy.
Caroline needed that energy for the end of her challenge, a 50-mile Liverpool-Chester bike ride.
"During the lead-up to my bike ride, I ate the last of my pasta and frozen vegetables to give me energy, saving a couple of eggs, peanut butter and oatcakes for my breakfast before the start. I was feeling quite anxious but at the same time excited. The ride was the finale for me and I absolutely loved the experience. I knew that I was nearly there. I had never ridden that far before but it was such a great experience and the atmosphere was fabulous. At the end I was on my own but I didn't care, I was as high as a kite. I had just lived on a total of £38.62 for 28 days and ridden 50 miles on my bike. I was so delighted and all for the wonderful charity Stick 'n' Step, whose support throughout the challenge had been fantastic," she said.
So far Caroline has raised £1,340 with pledges of more to come. She also plans to write a 16-page booklet that will be about the tricks and tips of keeping to a budget while also staying healthy and active.
Caroline admits that the hardest part of the challenge was not being able to socialize as she normally would. "I recalled these experiences to my friend Ed who is completely reliant on a motorised wheelchair due to his cerebral palsy. He explained how he has to consider every move he makes and how he can't just be in all places all of the time due to his CP. He helped me realise further the challenge I had set myself connected with his own limitations and I thank him for that.
"That is why I will continue to support Stick 'n' Step because for every moment that the charity supports the children with their development, the further their characters will be strengthened. Living with CP is a challenge in itself, and I truly admire the strength of the children that commit themselves to the Stick 'n' Step programme.
"I want to say a huge thank you to Stick 'n' Step for opening up my eyes to the work they do and of course my heart too. "

Elim Church
Yesterday's post described La Bajada, a Roman Catholic religious observance which culminates at the doors of San Salvador's Metropolitan Cathedral. Yet that was not the only large gathering of Christians in San Salvador on August 5. As many as 50,000 youth filled Cuscatlan stadium for a rally of Elim Church. The message of the rally was that youth could make a message of peace known throughout the country.
Elim Church is one of the 6 largest churches in the world, measured by number of members. Its membership of 147,000 comes together in small cell groups: 117,000 adults plus approximately 30,000 in children's cells. It dwarfs so-called mega-churches in the United States. On November 21, 2004, Elim held a rally so the whole church could worship at once: 200,000 people, including president Tony Saca and other political leaders, gathered together.
In May 2005, pastor Steve Cordle of Crossroads Church in Oakdale, Pennsylvania visited Elim Church and its pastor Mario Vega, and his description of the trip can be found here.
The growth of evangelical churches like Elim Church and the Baptist Biblical Tabernacle Friends of Israel are part of the ever increasing prominence of evangelicals in the region. Statements that El Salvador is a "Roman Catholic country" no longer adequately describe the religious activity in the region.

The Morocco international had the chance to net the winner and secure a vital three points for the Hoops after Norwich City goalkeeper Mark Bunn fouled Jamie Mackie.
However, Taarabt's subsequent spot-kick was saved by Bunn, leaving QPR six points adrift of 17th-placed Reading at the end of play on Saturday.
But Jenas praised his team-mate's strength of character for stepping up to take the penalty.
"In the situation we are in we need everything we can get but I will never, ever criticise a player who steps up to take a penalty because they're courageous to do it, especially given the position we are in at the minute," Jenas told QPR's website.
"I thought Adel was fantastic and it's just a shame he couldn't round off his performance with the goal."
Jenas made his first Premier League appearance of the season in QPR's stalemate after the England international found himself out of favour at Tottenham.
The 28-year-old, who moved from Spurs to the Hoops on transfer deadline day, is aiming to improve his fitness before earning a starting spot in Harry Redknapp's side.
"I was delighted to get out there for half an hour. I felt composed and felt I kept the ball well. Now I will build from there," he added.
"It was my first game since November, so it's been a while. But I'll be doing extra work in training throughout this week and trying to get myself to that level where the manager feels I am in a position to start.
"I know what my body needs, and if it needs more to get my fitness levels up, then I'll do more."

text: In 2009 an illegal alien in Polk County, Florida who got pulled over in a routine traffic stop ended up shooting and killing the deputy who stopped him. The deputy was shot eight times, including once behind his right ear at close range. Another deputy was wounded and a police dog killed. A state-wide manhunt ensued. The murderer was found hiding in a wooded area and as soon as he took a shot at the SWAT team, officers opened fire on him. They hit the beaner 68 times. Naturally, the liberal media went nuts and asked why they had to shoot the poor undocumented immigrant 68 times. Sheriff Grady Judd told the Orlando Sentinel: "Because that's all the ammunition we had." The county medical examiner also reported that the illegal alien died of natural causes. When asked by a reporter how that could be since there were 68 bullet wounds in his body, he simply replied "When you are shot 68 times, you are naturally gonna die." http://www.northwestfront.org |

Rocephin for Dogs
by Jane MeggittCeftriaxone, marketed under the brand name Rocephin, is used in dogs for treating serious bacterial infections. Although Rocephin is only approved for use in humans by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, veterinarians are able to use it for their patients as an "extra-label" pharmaceutical. It's available only in injectable form.
Rocephin and Bacterial Infections
Your vet won't give your dog shots of Rocephin for minor infections, but if he's severely ill, the drug might turn the tide. Rocephin aids in treating respiratory and urinary tract infections, along with those involving the skin, blood, bones and joints. Because it crosses the blood-brain barrier, it can help dogs diagnosed with meningitis. Side effects include diarrhea and vomiting. After the injection or intravenous administration, your vet might prescribe cephalosporin, a similar antibiotic, for your dog to take at home in pill form.

ReMix: Dark Souls "Kindle the Soul"
Help us take OCR to the next level by supporting us on
- Game: Dark Souls (Namco Bandai Games, 2011, PS3)
- ReMixer(s): RoeTaKa
- Composer(s): Motoi Sakuraba
- Song(s): "Firelink Shrine", "Maiden in Black"
- Posted: 2017-01-12, evaluated by the judges
- Terms (BETA): acoustic-guitar cinematic classical dark mellow piano rock strings timesig-4-4
I think Sir_NutS can open things up for us, actually:
"Yeah it's yet another awesome RoeTaKa (Alex Roe) Dark Souls Remix. This one is different from his usual style though, with a less straight-up symphonic approach. The focus on the piano melodies and the supporting drums give it a much more relaxed feel than his other submissions. This song however retains the high production quality that we're accustomed to from Alex now."
Ditto all that; it's Alex, it's Dark Souls, and so there are some safe baseline assumptions you can make about emotive, expressive, & polished music, but this leans more on an acoustic kit groove and piano - while still highlighting some haunting, immersive strings. The artist writes:
"The Souls games have become a pivotal series in my life. It's a strange feeling to know you owe a lot to a video game franchise. Demon's Souls will always be what made me feel accepted into the Souls community and have an insanely supportive fanbase on my YouTube channel. But Dark Souls helped me through tougher times. It's a game that set me straight when I needed it. It makes me really happy to know that my Souls remixes mean something to the people that play these games.
This time I have remixed "Firelink Shrine." I was inspired mostly by ENB's new Dark Souls playthrough and if you somehow don't know who ENB is, then check out his channel. As he was exploring Firelink Shrine, I got the urge for remixing again. It's the last safe hub area of the Souls games that I haven't touched, mostly because I wasn't sure I could do anything with it that was worth doing. It's mostly just chords with some little bits here and there. I've had some hard times with music lately and here I felt like I was returning to a younger Alex whose style I have neglected for a long time. I really enjoy chilled out music that has some emotion to it and I feel like it's a really natural thing for me to come back to.
I did a lot of original material over the source, but I tried to keep the original intact with the strings and other elements. The drums might be a bit repetitive for OC ReMix, but I think they work. At the end of the song, I used the hub theme from Demon's Souls when the drums drop out. I managed to service my Demon's Souls fanboy by putting the Nexus right in there at the end. I hope you'll hear the original clearly enough in the background. It's mostly just to say that I like that song more, haha, but I think it made an enjoyable ending. I really enjoyed making this and I hope you enjoy it too!
I can imagine some of you will not enjoy the beats over the other stuff I've done, so I've provided a download just for the orchestral elements too."
He called out his OWN drums as repetitive, pre-empting those pesky judges ;) Here what I'll say about that - due to their more static AND quantized/precise nature, I think glitching them out a bit & injecting some tasteful downtempo/trip-hop elements might have been nice. Without any such treatments, they feel like a straight acoustic rhythm track that just doesn't mix it up quite as much as I'd like, and judges did indeed critique this. No one felt it was prohibitive, though... the darkly developing atmosphere, constructed by layers of strings over piano, is the star, with drums pushing things along and lending some structure/momentum. Alex has a way of bringing out texture in his string parts from moment to moment that creates a striking evolution; really good stuff. I'd like to see Alex experiment even more, and consider - at least for tracks like this, on drums - incorporating some modern production techniques into his game. Judges did discuss the liberal arranging approach, but I think DaMonz had the final word:
"There are melodies in both original tracks, and the ReMix references them directly repeatedly throughout the arrangement. To me, this is undeniably a YES on source usage. And everything about this track sounds great to me. The drums are repetitive, yeah, but this is lush, full of rich emotions, absolutely beautiful. I want to see this on the front page."
And so you shall! (More) great Souls stuff from Roe that continues a long vein of transporting, transformative works!

Oy, I liked Offspring back in the 80's and 90's....
I'm always amazed at the level of incoherent idiocy we all seem capable of when we are behind the wheel.
Normally intelligent, witty people reduced to sputtering Tourette Syndrome victims...
Of course, maybe it comes from, in my part from driving on the expressways around Cleveland, Ohio.
"You, You...gack..aghakk...DUMMY ASSHOLE"
Maybe it's a very good thing I never had a gun in the car.Mikeb30200:
You know what the real problem is? It's not ENOUGH drivers with gunz. It would be more better for society and expeshly for the Road Ragists if they could keep both hands on the wheel and not have to get out of the car at a stoplight to bash some autoperp with their tire tool. Actually it's not the drivers that should be armed, it's the cars. If everbody had a couplea M240's on their fenders and a roof mounted M79. An armed fleet is a polite fleet!

An informational interview is a brief meeting with a professional currently working in your field of interest. The purpose of an informational interview is not to get a job, but to gain insight. It's an opportunity for you to get an insider's perspective on an industry and better understand that person's position.
DePaul's Alumni Sharing Knowledge program offers students the opportunity to connect with DePaul alumni in order to make connections that can foster professional growth. To set up an informational interview with ASK, visit the Mentoring section on Handshake and search for mentors in your field of interest.
Dan Kesselring, an active ASK mentor, offers the following tips for a successful informational interview:
