Lamarck maintains that animals and plants vary: so does Mr. Darwin.
These are the facts; let us now see how Lamarck would treat them.
The spirit of opposition does not seem to have much changed in France since Lamarck's time.
In all of these points Lamarck is at one with modern thought.
But nothing more is contributed to this theory either by the doctrine of Darwin or by that of Lamarck.
For the factors of the transformation he refers to Lamarck's hypotheses.
We have seen, that up to a certain point there is very little difference between Lamarck and Mr. Darwin.
Upon the truth of it depends of course Lamarck's whole theory.
Also for more than ten years the citizen Lamarck has employed in Paris a great number of artists.
The name of Lamarck has been familiar to me from my youth up.
Lamarck La·marck (lə-märk', lä-), Chevalier de Jean Baptiste Pierre Antoine de Monet. 1744-1829.
French naturalist noted for his theories on evolution by adaptative modification and for classifying animals into vertebrates and invertebrates.
French naturalist who introduced the taxonomic distinction between vertebrates and invertebrates. His theory that the acquired characteristics of a species could be inherited by later generations was a forerunner to Charles Darwin's theory of evolution, although it was eventually discredited.

Dear, i0n1c it would be nice ! you try work on ''Unlock'' All versions iPhone Baseband !!!
[QUOTE=kadarrius;6342128. alot of people just like my self bought an ipad 2 on firmware 4.3.5 and are now stuck and have the choice to either update to ios 5 and join the crowd on waiting for a dam near impossible jailbreak for it :[/QUOTE]
Funny.....I've seen pod2g's videos and tweets saying that it's pretty much done. Plus he had the CDT working on it now to so in thinking its not damn near impossible as its being done. Honestly though, as much as I want an untethered exploit for my i4 & 4S I say wait until 5.1 releases. That's the smartest move. Betas are already out for 5.1 and it's not like it's going to be from going to 4.3.5 to 5.0 so the release probably will not be that far off.
I think the 4.3.5 untethered jailbreak would be nice for the following reasons..I have noticed a significant drop in battery power..Although 5.0.1 is better it still doesnt last as long as 4.3.5...The new features on 5.0.1 are nice but I would rather have a longer battery life.
Think about it now........ I don't look at the battery, it's not an issue. Never with any other firmware or iphone has that been said.
I played zynga poker for 5 hours yesterday (lol, was a slow day) and was still at 27% when done. Add that to whatever the day consisted of.
*over* not overs
Somebody...................please release a 5.0.1 Untethered JB!!!
Geohot dude, where are you??!? iPhone Dev Team sucks on their own.
I'd like to see you on your own, mr metelicaman
im kinda confused a little .. i have a iPhone 4 jailbroken tethered 4.3.5 BASEBAND 4.10.01 unlocked with gevey.
can i go to 5.0 when im 4.3.5 tethered jailbroken and unlocked with gevey sim and when the 5.0.1 or 5.0 untethered jailbreak comes out i can still preserve the 4.10.01 BB and continue with my unlock?
im i going to be able to install the 1.59.00 BB and unlock with ultrasn0w for the 5.0 or 5.0.1?

A Review of the Logitech® Harmony® One
One remote to control them all
Former Crutchfield staff writer Melanie Seibert now works as a content strategist and writer in Texas.
Heads up!Welcome to this article from the Crutchfield archives. Have fun reading it, but be aware that the information may be outdated and links may be broken.
From the casual couch potato to the most tech-savvy audio/video enthusiast, we all have one thing in common — we love our remotes. And really, what's not to love? They give us complete control over our entire A/V system, from the comfort of our favorite easy chair.
In fact, one could argue that we love them a bit too much.
Take my setup, for example. I have no less than four remotes for four separate devices. And I'm by no means the most acquisitive A/V geek out there.
Fortunately for us, Logitech has crafted the Harmony One universal remote. Reposing attractively in its sleek black charging cradle, this one simple device offers control for all my gear.
So I decided to put it to the test: is the Harmony One really a home theater must-have, or does it deserve afterthought status?
|Logitech's sleek Harmony One boasts simple, streamlined control of all your home theater gear.
The Harmony One — seriously simple
One look at the Harmony One told me that Logitech takes this universal remote control idea very seriously. Among the bells and whistles it provides are the aforementioned charging cradle, a large LCD touchscreen, and the ability to connect to your PC for easy programming. Of course, none of my components' remotes offers anything close.
The ergonomically advanced Harmony One feels great in your hand. It's specially contoured for an easy, comfortable grip. It also has a shiny black finish that somehow resists picking up smudges from fingerprints.
I liked the LCD touchscreen — it's large enough that I could easily read the labels on the "soft" buttons (the virtual buttons shown on the LCD screen). The screen's size also makes it easy to push those virtual buttons. I did accidentally push the wrong button a couple of times, since they're fairly close together, but mostly the touchscreen's design worked well.
The remote's cradle is an eye-pleasing little device in itself. Designed with the same smooth black styling as the remote, it also incorporates a cool LED light, so you can find it in the dark. At first glance, it looked a little shallow, as if the remote might wiggle around and fail to charge. But no — the remote fit in the cradle like a hand in a glove.
So, charging the supplied battery couldn't be simpler. Perhaps even more importantly, though, the cradle gives your remote a "home," so it's less likely to get lost.
|The Harmony One fit securely on its charging cradle, ensuring it was always powered up and ready to go, as well as easy to find.
Smart, easy setup
This was an ingenious, handy feature that I'd never used before: the Harmony One comes with its own USB cable, so you can connect it to your computer to simplify programming.
|Like all remotes in Logitech's Harmony line, the Harmony One features a USB interface for convenient programming via your PC.
I put the included CD-ROM into my Mac and installed the Harmony One's software. It guided me through every step of the process. (For the most up-to-date version, you can download this software from the "Remotes" section of the Logitech website.)
Next, I ran the setup application. This step of the process requires Internet access, since the application connects to the Harmony website, where it creates your personalized account. At this point, I was glad that I had already compiled a list of the manufacturers and model numbers of all my home theater components — you need to enter each one into your Harmony account, so that the Harmony software can configure your remote.
Because the Harmony site didn't recognize my DISH DVR, I had to point the DVR remote at the Harmony One and press certain buttons, so that the latter could "learn" how to talk to my DVR. The procedure was simple, and I liked that the setup software was flexible enough to accommodate components it can't identify.
Next it was time to set up the "activities" my Harmony One would be performing, such as "Listen to CDs" or "Watch TV." Again, I was glad I had written down the settings that each component used for each activity. For example, I had to tell the Harmony software that when I watch TV, the television needs to be set to "AV1," and the receiver needs to be set to "TV Sound."
I was very impressed with how smoothly the Harmony software compiled all my information. It helpfully guessed which settings were correct, simplifying the setup. It also informed me that the Harmony One couldn't control my Nintendo Wii™, since the Wii responds to a Bluetooth®, rather than a typical IR (infrared), remote signal. There's even a tutorial on using the remote.
Logitech definitely provides plenty of guidance for their customers, which goes a long way toward ensuring a successful experience.
Calling tech support
The final step in programming my remote was connecting it to my Mac via USB. That's when I noticed a problem: my computer wasn't recognizing that the remote was connected. When I didn't see a fix on the Harmony website, I called tech support.
It actually took a couple of calls to pinpoint the problem, and each support rep I spoke with was helpful and friendly. They led me through the troubleshooting procedures and only hung up when the problem was resolved to my satisfaction.
With tech support's help, I realized the culprit was a bad USB cable. I replaced it and presto — the remote and my computer were buddies. The settings downloaded to my remote and it was ready to use.
Benefits to programming the Harmony One via my computer
As you can imagine, I preferred the PC-based method of programming over looking up codes in a manual and punching them into the remote, the way I programmed my old (actually, ancient) universal remote. For one thing, using the computer makes it easier to update components in the future if, say, I get a newer Blu-ray player or a larger TV. I just look up the new component on the Harmony website and it updates my remote for me.
But there are other benefits. The software gave me advanced control over the Harmony One; for example, I could rename activities or change the order in which components are turned on and off. My absolute favorite function, though, was the ability to change the functions of the "hard" buttons and add and name "soft" buttons.
Creating these custom buttons was huge. It made the difference, for example, between having to navigate through three remote screens in order to view my DVR recordings, and having the option readily at hand. And because the remote's so easy to update, I can easily connect it and make changes when I think of them.
|Here, you can see this remote's customizable "activities" on the LCD screen. (Click the image above to see a larger version.)
Using the Harmony One
Now, the moment of truth: I kicked back on the couch to test-drive the remote. Right away, I noticed a feature that I have a real soft spot for: to save power, the remote goes into sleep mode when you set it down and "wakes" when you pick it up. It makes me say "Cool!" every time.
It didn't take long for me to get used to pushing just one button to watch TV, rather than three. And the cherry topping on the Harmony One sundae, as far as I was concerned, was the Remote Assistant. If one of your "activities" doesn't make your system work as you planned, just push "Help" and questions will appear on the LCD screen to guide you through fixing the problem.
So, when the DVR failed to turn on when it should have, I pushed "Help" and the Harmony One asked, "Is the DVR on?" When I answered no, it turned the DVR on and asked "Is it on now?" How foolproof is that? It's like a butler who turns your components on and off at your request.
Within the span of just a couple of days, the Harmony One became an indispensable part of our home theater setup. No longer were four remotes crowding our end tables and taking turns disappearing, to our frustration. We can access any A/V function with no searching and no questions. My husband, skeptical of the remote's usefulness at first, is now a confirmed fan.
The bottom line
Okay, obviously, I loved the Harmony One. But how do you know whether it's a worthwhile add-on for your system?
If you've ever spent ten minutes fumbling through TV inputs to watch a movie, or searching for the right remote to turn on a component, the Harmony One's all-in-one usefulness and easy-to-locate charging cradle can ensure that never happens again.
If you have to write out instructions to enable your family to watch TV or listen to music, the Harmony One can make such lists a thing of the past. The remote's customizable buttons and intelligent software ensure that using your home theater is foolproof and simple.
For my part, it's clear now that a quality universal remote like the Harmony One should have been at the top of my must-have A/V equipment list. Easy, one-touch operation of all my home theater gear is just what my system was missing. And, thanks to its intuitive interface and comprehensive array of features, the Harmony One is my home theater remote of choice.

Mark Ingram Scouting Report
|Alabama Crimson Tide
|Jersey Number:
|Height & Weight:
|5'10 - 215 lbs.
|40-Yard Dash
|Bench press
|Vertical jump
|Three-cone drill
2011 NFL Draft Prospect Scouting Report:
Mark Ingram, RB, Alabama
At times dominant in the college game, Ingram also projects well to the next level. He is a load to bring down at 5'10' and 215 pounds. His speed for that kind of frame is impressive, as he has been clocked as fast as 4.42 in the 40-yard dash. Ingram has decent hands for catching passes out of the backfield, although he should improve both his catching and his speed if he wants to have the same kind of success on Sundays. Block and getting to the outside edge are areas on which he will work.
The knee injury is no longer a real concern and Ingram looks like the best running back available in a relatively weak RB class. His superb version and ability to run between the tackles will serve him well at the next level...and on draft day. Ingram will likely be selected in the middle of the first round.

If the Dolphins decide to stick with Chad Henne at QB, i think they will go RB and grab Ingram in the middle of the 1st.

if he dose not go to dlophins in 1st round he may stick around for a wile
twollas 02/07/11 12:13 PM
Has been timed as fast as 4.42 and as slow as 4.60. Not what some teams who need speedy backs are looking for. Very poor fit for G.B. who already has two such backs. His stock could fall into the second round if he runs a slow 40 at the combine.

There has been no sour grapes to Jason Washburn.
He's been one of Utah's most vocal players on the bench. He's usually the first to greet Dallin Bachynski - the man who took his starting job - during timeouts.
Oh. And he's playing pretty well too.
Washburn scored six points in seven minutes on Wednesday, a win over Idaho State.
On Friday, against Central Michigan, he was better. In 18 minutes, he scored seven points, and blocked a pair of shots. Most importantly, he was a presence in the paint. He played hard. He got his hands on loose balls and he made a difference.
Larry Krystkowiak sounded like a man who wants to make his switch with Bachynski in the starting lineup permanent. But he's been impressed with Washburn and how he's handled adversity.
Very impressed.
"Wash is doing great, as far as I'm concerned," Krystkowiak said. "He could be down there at the end of the bench sulking, but he is constantly bringing positive energy to the table. When we've called on him to contribute, he has provided scoring, like what we saw tonight, and tough defense."
Krystkowiak likes Bachynski's energy with the starting lineup, plus his rebounding and toughness. He likes Washburn's ability to score against second-unit big men. He said as much during postgame interviews, repeating his mantra of liking certain players with certain units.
Washburn still has his issues. He's turned the ball over at an alarming rate this season. But he has shown improvement when his back was against the wall.
And that's impressed his coaching staff.

AMES, Iowa – Students, corn producers and agronomists are taking an in-depth look at corn, from the moment the seed is planted to maturity, with Corn Growth and Development (PMR 1009), a publication from Iowa State University Extension and Outreach.
In 2011, the ISU Extension and Outreach corn production team completed this publication, which serves as the standard reference on corn growth and development for many. It has been highly successful in its first two years in the ISU Extension and Outreach online store.
The publication takes much of what is known about crop physiology and combines that with field agronomics to provide students, corn producers and agronomists the current and technical information they want and can apply to real world production. Authors of the publication are Lori Abendroth; Roger Elmore, ISU Extension corn specialist; Matthew Boyer, former agronomy graduate student; and Stephanie (Marlay) Bowden, agronomy specialist.
Corn Growth and Development replaced How a Corn Plant Develops, the previous industry standard. To develop the new publication, the team conducted multiyear research trials, synthesized research papers, grew hundreds of plants for photography sessions and spent months working with editors and designers. The publication weaves the newest scientific facts regarding corn growth and development throughout the pages in a way that is concise and easily applicable for people in production agriculture. Key features include
The publication is available in a print version in both English and Spanish, and in an e-version in English. Each image from the publication also can be electronically downloaded.
"A primary goal for the publication was to help equip students, agronomists, corn producers and scientists throughout the Midwest. I think it is geared really well toward clientele and students who want a comprehensive understanding of corn development that can serve as the foundation for understanding production agriculture and how management practices may impact crop yield. I am thrilled at the publication's success to-date and hope we can continue to reach more individuals," said Abendroth.
The publication provides students with the deep knowledge of the crops they will work with in the field, said Abendroth. It provides an overall foundation for understanding corn production.
"Corn is a highly versatile crop and is fairly uniform in its development across a wide geographic range," said Abendroth. "We worked hard to make this publication accessible regarding the data and information presented so that many audiences would find it useful, as well as providing several different formats for them."
The English print version has sold more than 12,000 copies in more than 20 states, the English e-books have sold more than 350 copies worldwide. The Spanish print version and digital images have sold less, but with price adjustments recently made on the images, the team is optimistic. Overall, more than 12,600 copies of the publication have been sold.
The publication is $14 in both print versions, the e-version is $5 and the digital images sell for various prices. Bulk discounts are in place for book orders of 100 or more. To purchase the publication in its various formats, visit the Iowa State University Extension and Outreach online store.
Abendroth worked on the publication as an associate corn agronomist, and is now the project manager of a United States Department of Agriculture-funded climate and corn-based cropping systems coordinated agricultural project based at Iowa State. She manages a team of individuals across 11 institutions and nine Midwestern states. The team is working to identify practices that will increase the resilience and adaptability of Midwest agriculture to more volatile weather patterns.

A Cape Breton landmark mysteriously disappeared under a cloak of flames over the weekend.
The Point Aconi lighthouse somehow burned to the ground without anyone noticing, at some time since Friday.
"It just went unnoticed," said Florence Volunteer Fire Department Chief Bill Capstick, who received a call Sunday that the structure was gone. "It was burnt and nobody knew about it. It burnt some time over the weekend probably late Friday night. And none of the emergency services knew about it. It burnt unnoticed and just faded away. It's a shame.
"Everything's gone, totally. There's no lighthouse left."
Located at the end of a slushy, rutted road that's barely driveable, the lighthouse's remote location and the fact there are no other buildings near it could be the main reasons why nobody noticed the fire. Capstick said the location is pretty much only visible from the water. In fact, the only reason Capstick thinks it burned Friday night or early Saturday morning is that the area surrounding the two buildings that make up the lighthouse site remains dry and free of ice, which it wouldn't be if it had burned earlier in the week. Capstick said there was no reason for it to burn since there was no power going to it.
"The lighthouse was separate from the main building," said Capstick. "Unless sparks landed on it, but chances are it had something thrown at it to get it started.
"Somebody burnt it."
There's been a lighthouse in that general area since 1874, said Barry MacDonald, president of the Nova Scotia Lighthouse Preservation Society.
"To lose any lighthouse is a very sad thing," MacDonald said when contacted at his home in Seaforth.
The Ingonish native said it's important to realize it's the end of an era because such a structure will never be built on that site again.
"Once it's gone, it's gone forever."
At one time, the Point Aconi lighthouse was made of three separate buildings and employed three lighthouse keepers. That was reduced to one keeper in 1975 and automation came later. The generator building that was on site was built around 1965, while the 11-metre glass fibre tower was built in 1989. The operational light, visible for 13 nautical miles, is supplemented with an automated horn that gives a six-second blast every 60 seconds.
Although generally abandoned for years, MacDonald said at one time it appeared people in the area were planning to turn the lighthouse into a heritage centre. But like the light, that possibility has now been snuffed out.
"It's a very sad day when you lose one of these locations," said MacDonald.
For Capstick, the loss of the lighthouse is significant to the area's history.
"It's a shame that it's gone. Anyone out in a boat, it was such a familiar landmark — they're not going to have that anymore — it's now history. The cement slab is left and all the debris is laying on top of it.
"Burnt out pretty good."
Earlier story:
The fire marshal's office and the Cape Breton Regional Police are investigating after the Point Aconi lighthouse was destroyed by fire over the weekend.
Police Staff Sgt. Ken O'Neill said they were notified of the blaze late Sunday afternoon by the chief of the Florence Fire Department, who received a call that the structure was gutted. It is unclear exactly when the lighthouse burnt down, but it is believed to have happened at some point on Saturday.
Police are asking anyone with any information regarding the fire to contact their dispatch centre at 563-5151 or Crime Stoppers at 562-8477 or online atwww.capebretoncrimestoppers.ca.

The next day Thierry had Guy try an experimental wine he had left on the lees (yeast cells). Both friends had no idea that this would result is such a dramatic difference from the wine they tried the day before. It had a wonderful color and rich, round palate. Thierry exclaimed "now zat iz what you call eh phet bast-ard," he said in response to the wine.
After several more glasses of this great nectar they agreed that they could not withhold it from the public. When it came to a name only one was considered: the expression that it originally evoked, "Fat bastard." Even with the unique name and the great wine the two proceeded slowly in production. The first vintage was 5,000 cases with 2,000 cases going to Peter Click, an American bloke Guy had befriended during his world wine travels. The public on both sides on the pond loved the wine. Most people bought a bottle because of the name and returned to buy cases because of the quality. View all Fat Bastard Wines
About Other FrenchView a map of Other French wineries
Vin de Pays(vahn duh peh-YEE)
One of the lower levels in the French Classification system, Vin de Pays is an intermediary wine, created for vineyards who were not quite AC, but vastly superior to Vin de Table wine. Vin de Pays has restrictions similar to the AC, but on a lesser scale. Regulations include specified region, minimum alcohol level and grape varieties. The wine also goes through a tasting panel. Some winemakers able to make wine at an AC level, instead choose to create wine at the Vin de Pays level as it allows more flexibility in grape varieties and yields. There are five regional Vin de Pays, with the most popular being Vin Pays d'Oc (from Languedoc & Roussillon). Vin de Pays wines offer wonderful value and good wine finds.
About France - Other regionsWhen it comes to wine, France is a classic. Classic blends, grapes and styles began in the country and they still remain. Think about it - people ask for a Burgundian style Pinot Noir, they refer to wines as Bordeaux or Rhone blends - Champagne even had to pass a law to stop international wineries from putting their region on the label of all sparkling wine.
The top regions of France are: Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne, Languedoc-Roussillon, Loire, Rhone. And these regions are so diverse! It makes sense that wine regions throughout the world try to emulate their style. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah are no longer French varieties, but international varieties. They may not be the leader of cutting edge technology or value-priced wines, but there is no doubt that they are still producing wines of great quality and diversity.

The Museum of 18th-century Venice is a gleaming (if somewhat chilly) showcase for the art of the Republic's twilight years. For most visitors, the paintings on display here will appear less impressive than the palazzo itself, an imposing Grand Canal affair designed by Baldassare Longhena for the Bon family in 1667. Bon ambitions exceeded Bon means, and the unfinished palace was sold on to the Rezzonico family - rich Genoese bankers who bought their way into Venice's nobility. The Rezzonicos' bid for stardom was crowned in 1758 by two events: the election of Carlo Rezzonico as Pope Clement XIII, and the marriage of Ludovico Rezzonico into one of Venice's oldest noble families, the Savorgnan.
Giambattista Tiepolo was called upon to celebrate the marriage on the ceiling of the Sala del Trono; he replied with a composition so playful it's easy to forget that this is all about purchasing rank and power. Giovanni Battista Crosato's over-the-top ceiling frescoes in the ballroom have aged less well but, together with the Murano chandeliers and intricately carved furniture by Andrea Brustolon, they provide an accurate record of the lifestyles of the rich and famous.
There are historical canvases by Giovanni Battista Piazzetta and Antonio Diziani, plus other gems. Detached frescoes of pulcinellas by Giandomenico Tiepolo capture the leisured melancholy of the moneyed classes as La Serenissima went into terminal decline. Originally painted for the Tiepolo family villa they were moved here in 1936 and recently restored. There are some good genre paintings by Pietro Longhi, and a series of pastel portraits by Rosalba Carriera, a female 'prodigy' who was kept busy by English travellers eager to bring back a souvenir of their Grand Tour. On the third floor is the Egidio Martini gallery, a collection of mainly Venetian works, and a reconstruction of an 18th-century pharmacy, with fine majolica vases.
A staircase at the far end of the entrance hall leads to the 'Mezzanino Browning', where the poet Robert Browning died in 1889. This contains the Mestrovich Collection of Veneto paintings, donated to the city by Ferruccio Mestrovich as a sign of gratitude for the hospitality afforded to his family after they had been expelled from Dalmatia in 1945.

In the weeks after Hurricane Katrina, New Orleans architect Wayne Troyer, AIA, bounced between friends' houses in Alabama and Louisiana. All the while, he frantically awaited the latest news of his home city. "I e-mailed like crazy ... we were all trying to regain our sanity," he recalls. When he finally made his way back to New Orleans and located his staff, they worked out of his house in the Lower Garden District for six months while their Warehouse District office underwent repairs [click here for more on Wayne Troyer Architects' studio space].
Throughout the chaotic post-storm period, up through today, the 16-year-old firm hasn't lacked for commissions. "We've been helping a lot of former clients with flood damage," Troyer says. They've also designed a homeless recovery center in downtown New Orleans that will open this month, as well as several under-construction remodels and new houses.
He's particularly excited about two on-the-boards, multifamily projects in the 9th Ward's Bywater neighborhood, where he grew up. One, known as ICInola and developed by Shea Embry and Cam Mangham, is a four-building, mixed-use complex that adapts a former meat-packing plant into loft condominiums, townhomes, and ground-floor retail. Troyer and the developers kept the scale of the project low to blend in with the surrounding houses and industrial buildings. The environmentally conscious design also includes vegetated roofs and solar panels. The other project—Rice Mill Lofts for developer Sean Cummings—will contain 60 loft apartments and retail in an old rice factory next to the Mississippi River. "The river is a great asset," Troyer says. "[Riverfront land] is on higher ground, so it can take a lot of density. The best way to rebuild is to maximize the areas that are most protected by the flood-control system."
Troyer balances his taste for modern architecture with an admiration for New Orleans' older homes and buildings. He's brought his talent for sleek, contemporary interventions in historic structures to the city's nonprofit Preservation Resource Center (PRC), with which he's worked on many restoration and renovation projects. In addition to the PRC, Troyer has made a habit of pairing with top out-of-state firms. His studio has collaborated with Minneapolis' Vincent James Associates Architects and Atlanta's Mack Scogin Merrill Elam Architects on various projects at Tulane University, for example. Post-Katrina, he served on the Frederic Schwartz, FAIA-led neighborhood planning team for the Unified New Orleans Plan. And he feels local architects banded together after the storm in a way they hadn't before. "There's very much a sense of community," he says.

After taking a month to calm down, I am now able to ask on the forum if anyone else has had a security problem after wedding cake set up. For my nephew's wedding, I stacked the cake on the table designated by the pastry chef at the terribly upscale country club. Certainly this chef had plenty of other cakes to do that day and did not seem put out that he wasn't doing one for this wedding. My sister (mother of groom) and I artfully arranged the orchids, calla lillies, and other greenery on the cake and table before changing into our wedding clothes and heading for the chapel.
Imagine my surprise when I returned to the club for the receptionto find not only all tables rearranged but also the flowers on the cake and cake table! I spoke with the event manager: "We had to get into the closet near the cake table to switch out some tables. Sorry, but we had to." Yes, I elevated the issue to the club manager and the catering manager who certainly reponded better when I pointed out that groveling would be the minimum requirement. But still, the flowers were rearranged!
Obviously, what I need to do next time is hire a security guard so one, lone, young staff member doesn't drag the table out of the way, shifting the orchids!

Music, Performance emphasisClass of
CCU provided the spiritual and emotional foundation that sustained me through graduate school and prepared me for the work I am now doing in music. When I entered graduate school at USC, I suddenly encountered many guitarists who were playing at very high levels, making recordings, and winning competitions. It was, to be honest, quite intimidating. Knowing my identity in Christ, being certain that my worth did not come from how well I played compared to others, was essential to my survival in this new environment. Being found in Christ disarms envy and jealousy and frees one to simply learn, and to be willing to share knowledge with others to build them up, rather than to intimidate or to be intimidated by them. At USC, I grew a lot musically, but CCU provided the stability I needed to stick with my calling under the competitive pressure. One of the most important things I learned at CCU is integration - the amalgamation of faith and work. This was hammered into my head from the first day of Freshman Year Integration to the last day of Senior Integrative Seminar while I was at CCU. By the time I finished my last class, I thought I'd had enough of that word! But as I see it now, that was the most significant part of my experience at CCU. Every class, whether English, philosophy, or Dr. Schantz's Musical Perspectives, in some way prepared me to serve God with integrity through my work in music. Beyond musical technique (though that is important in the temporary realm), humility, character, and a life surrendered to God are the qualities that really matter. The professors in the music department modeled these traits to me in their instruction and their patient encouragement of my development both as a person and as a musician.

5 Relationship Tips From This Year's Oscar-Nominated Films
What have you learned from the year's best films? Here are the relationship lessons we took away from this year's Oscar nominees.
Even though they all didn't win the Oscar awards this weekend, the nominees have already touched our hearts and minds. While enjoying five of this year's favorites, I found some great relationship advice
1. Be yourself. (The Help)
Skeeter (Emma Stone) gave up an opportunity to marry a Senator's son because he didn't support her work. She felt it was important to be honest with him about who she was and what she wanted out of life. Although he wasn't willing to continue the relationship, she knew her decision would bring her the most happiness.
Read Keeping Love Alive in Long Distance Relationships
2. Happiness comes from within. (My Week With Marilyn)
Even the most captivating woman of her time struggled to find happiness through external means. The movie's depiction of Marilyn Monroe (Michelle Williams) has the star turning to men and pills to get through life. She was just 30 years old, married to her third husband and in desperate need of attention from a young aspiring filmmaker. Her beauty, talent, and spirit for life were so often masked by her insecurity. Her experience teaches us that we can't expect a relationship to bring us the happiness we haven't first found in ourselves.
3. Keep calm and carry on. (The Descendants)
In what were probably the worst moments of his life, Matt (George Clooney), who considered himself the "back-up parent," stepped up to do what was best for his family. As his wife was about to be taken off of life support, Matt took an active role in the lives of his daughters and treated his wife's lover with more respect than the man deserved. As his love turns to loss, Matt reminds us to find a way to move forward.

Steven Van Zandt to receive We Are Family Foundation Award
Listen to Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band on iHeartRadio
Steven Van Zandt is being recognized for his charitable efforts. The E Street Band guitarist is among those who'll be honored Tuesday night at the We Are Family Foundation's annual Celebration Gala.
The rocker is slated to receive the organization's 2014 Humanitarian Award at the event. But Steven isn't just an honoree -- he's also appearing as a performer. Van Zandt will join Chic's Nile Rodgers in playing a special tribute to the late Nelson Mandela.
The 2014 Celebration Gala will take place at New York's Hammerstein Ballroom. Money raised through the event will go to the We Are Family Foundation.
Rodgers co-founded the organization to support and promote civic pride and unity in America following the September 11th, 2001 terrorist attacks.

Orwellian, Malthusian, barbarous, depraved…I think you get me.
And despite all the Malthusian nonsense, we've still got plenty of oil and natural gas, reports the National Journal's Amy Harder.
Workers responded by laboring harder and longer and bearing more children in a desperate attempt to outrun their Malthusian trap.
In the thousands of years before the Industrial Revolution, civilization was stuck in the Malthusian Trap.
In my fantasy I am not simply wasting my final nights with fruitless, Malthusian ramblings.
Chalmers's arguments are of interest mainly from their bearing upon his practical application of the Malthusian problem.
It was this experience which gave shape to his Malthusian theories.
The old Malthusian doctrine has given way before applied science.
For some time past infanticide has been common in China as a Malthusian check.
Remember the Malthusian doctrine, and that the mind breeds in even more rapid geometrical ratio than the body.

Ordered some new rims and tyres for my Ford Courier last week. John went above and beyond to get a great price and also the right style, size and fitment for my fussy requirements. The wheels turned up fitted and balanced and looked a million bucks. I couldn't of asked for a smoother transaction and a better guy to deal with. Thanks a million.
Had been looking at wheels for ages wanting to get great look/fitment. Called up Autocraze and spoke to Mo, he was awesome. Knew his products and put my mind at ease about the fitment. So I got my wheels and tyres (for a great price!) and I'm super happy!
AutoCraze were absolute legends to deal with when I was buying my Speedy Outlaws. Delivery to Queensland was unbelievably quick! Had the wheels fitted within a week of first making contact. Highly recommend!
The fellas at Autocraze helped heaps with the new wheels! Ordered them online and they arrived at my door 2 days later!! Awesome work fellas, cheers for all the help! Will definitely shop here again
Found the boys at Autocraze, top of the class, needed some rims for my Mustang and Mo had it all sorted. Their after sales support was fantastic too, highly recommend the guys, they are true car enthusiasts and take their time with your rims and their machinery is world class!
Awesome service, great people to deal with. Very professional and delivery was quicker than expected.. Also the car looks great, couldn't be happier. Thanks guys.
Ordered some rims and tires from these guys. Shipped Friday arrived Monday, great to deal with over the phone and the product you order is everybit as good in person. Already recommended to several friends.

Toggle: English / Spanish
Beriberi is a disease in which the body does not have enough thiamine (vitamin B1).
Thiamine deficiency; Vitamin B1 deficiency
There are two major types of beriberi:
Beriberi is rare in the United States because most foods are now vitamin enriched. If you eat a normal, healthy diet, you should get enough thiamine. Today, beriberi occurs mostly in patients who abuse alcohol. Drinking heavily can lead to poor nutrition. Excess alcohol makes it harder for the body to absorb and store thiamine.
A rare condition known as genetic beriberi is inherited (passed down through families). People with genetic beriberi lose the ability to absorb thiamine from foods. This can happen slowly over time and symptoms occur when the person is an adult. However, because health care providers may not consider beriberi in nonalcoholics, this diagnosis is often missed.
Beriberi can occur in breastfed infants when the mother's body is lacking in thiamine. The condition can also affect infants who are fed unusual formulas that don't have enough thiamine.
Getting dialysis and taking high doses of diuretics raise your risk of beriberi.
Symptoms of dry beriberi include:
Symptoms of wet beriberi include:
A physical examination may show signs of congestive heart failure, including:
A person with late-stage beriberi may be confused or have memory loss and delusions. The person may be less able to sense vibrations.
A neurological exam may show signs of:
The following tests may be done:
The goal of treatment is to replace the thiamine your body is lacking. This is done with thiamine supplements. Thiamine supplements are given through a shot (injection) or taken by mouth.
Other types of vitamins may also be recommended.
Blood tests may be done after you are given thiamine supplements to see how well you are responding to the medicine.
Untreated, beriberi is often deadly. With treatment, symptoms usually improve quickly.
Heart damage is usually reversible, and a full recovery is expected. However, if acute heart failure has already occurred, the outlook is poor.
Nervous system damage is also reversible, if caught early. If it is not caught early, some symptoms (such as memory loss) may remain even with treatment.
If a patient with Wernicke's encephalopathy receives thiamine replacement, language problems, unusual eye movements, and walking difficulties may go away. However, Korsakoff syndrome (or Korsakoff psychosis) tends to develop as Wernicke symptoms go away.
Beriberi is extremely rare in the United States. However, if you feel your family's diet is inadequate or poorly balanced, and you or your children have any symptoms of beriberi, call your health care provider.
Eating a proper diet that is rich in thiamine and other vitamins will prevent beriberi. Nursing mothers should make sure that their diet contains all vitamins. When infants are not receiving breast milk, parents need to be sure that their baby's infant formula contains thiamine.
People who drink heavily should try to cut down or quit. They should take B vitamins to make sure their body is properly absorbing and storing thiamine.

5 Essential Facts From "Housing America's Older Adults"
AARP Foundation sponsored a just-released report by The Joint Center for Housing Studies of Harvard University called "Housing America's Older Adults — Meeting the Needs of an Aging Population." The report highlights the many challenges the nation faces in providing affordable and adequate housing to an aging demographic whose numbers are increasing year by year. Learn a few key findings from the report.
Improving Access to Safe and
Affordable Housing
By 2030, one in every five Americans will be over age 65, and our nation will face a severe shortage in appropriate housing to meet their needs. As people age, they need housing that is structurally and mechanically safe and that accommodates people with disabilities. Those 50 and older also need safe communities, adequate transportation options and access to grocery stores, doctors and community activities. AARP Foundation is developing strategies to address the senior housing crisis and make all of our communities affordable and welcoming for people regardless of age or physical ability.
Meeting the Essentials
Partners Not Saviors-A New Model for Mixed Income Communities
Habitat is currently working to transform the 1,500-resident Southwood Mobile Home Park into a mixed-use, mixed-income community – this is the first development of this scale in our nation that is being executed with a commitment to non-displacement of residents. WATCH

I just returned yesterday from my second stay at this hotel and felt that I had to share my experience.
Last year I was at this hotel for one week and this year wanted to return for two weeks. While it may not be the typical all-inclusive beach resort that we have come to expect from warm destinations, I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed my time there.
The beach is across the street(not white sand), and the street vendors are a bit overwhelming, but you will quickly learn to deal with them. You won't find the extensive buffets of food that you may find elsewhere, but you never have a problem finding something that you enjoy to eat. In fact, I found that the buffets had improved since last year and if you can't find anything you like on the buffet, you are always welcome to order from the menu - anything from a hamburger & fries to a steak or grilled chicken to Italian crepes or canneloni.
I found that the service was wonderful - we were treated extremely well by all staff, even the elevator attendents (yes, they still have those in the older part of the hotel).
The tour representatives from Gema Tours are amazing; they will help you with any problem you have. If you are looking for something specific, they will even take you wherever you want to go. J.J., our tour guide, will quickly win your heart - he is a walking history book for the city of Cartagena and his pride of the city shows in any tour you are fortunate enough to go on with him. He is well-known at the hotel and around the old city - look for him if you need an excellent guide!
I find it extremely sad that Cartagena is suffering from the reputation that Columbia has been given. It is a beautiful city - the old walled city is fabulous by day or by night and I felt completely safe whereever I went, whether I was with others or o! ut walking alone. If you don't give this city, and this resort a chance, you are really missing a wonderful experience. Feel free to e-mail for any information. firstname.lastname@example.com

My partner and I just returned from a one week all-inclusive trip to Cartagena, Colombia. We booked through Go Travel Direct and stayed at the Hotel Caribe (4 star resort). We had a wonderful time and we are already talking about going back.
The hotel is quite old but it is well taken care of. Our room was nice and had lots of character. It had the basics - king size bed, television, small table and chairs, stocked mini fridge ($$), room safe, closet, washroom.
The pool is large and kept very clean with plenty of lounge chairs surrounding it. Beside the pool area is the main restaurant which serves a buffet meal for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
The food was quite good. We ate mostly at the buffet but decided to eat at the BBQ/grill restaurant one night. There is also a fancier restaurant which we didn't try. We never went hungry - there was always plenty to choose from.
The resort itself is unlike other resorts I have been to. For instance, if there was an entertainment team, they certainly didn't make much of an effort to keep the guests busy/entertained - which I think is a good thing. Guests were left on their own to relax by the pool or participate in tours or explore on their own. Also, although the resort is very close to the beach, it is not a beach resort. Most beaches in South America are public and the fact that Cartagena is a popular vacation destination for South Americans means that the beaches are busy. Vendors rent chairs out on the beach and sell whatever they can to make a few extra bucks. We took a walk along the beach one day but didn't spend much time there during our stay.
We chose to take 2 tours offered through Go Travel Direct. The Old City Tour was our favourite. We saw the giant wall that surrounds the old city, the fortress, and a monastery which is the highest point in the city. We got a good sense of the layout of Cartagena and saw some interesting historical sites. The other tour we took was the Mud Volcano Tour. The Totumo volcano is dormant and people can visit and bathe in the mud in the volcano. I decided not to go in but my partner did and he enjoyed it.
We spent a great deal of time wandering around the old part of the city exploring. We took a cab to and from our hotel which was only about $4000 pesos ($2 US) each way. Cartagena was very safe and the locals were extremely friendly. We shopped, visited the museum of modern art, saw a lot of beautiful old buildings, and enjoyed dinner out at nice restaurants a couple of nights.
There were a lot of vendors everywhere we went but we just said 'no thank you' and they left us alone. Some people may find this annoying but we just got used to it.
We found that the majority of locals did not speak much or any English. And we do not speak Spanish - but we managed to get by. It was a challenge but also kind of fun.
All in all we had a wonderful experience. The weather was fantastic and we loved exploring. Towards the end of our stay we felt familiar with the city and we were sad to leave.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used as the most effective intervention for treating individuals who suffer from clinical depression. Research studies consistently support CBT as the primary clinical tool in psychotherapy techniques. However; other psychodynamic techniques are also used to help the individual to better understand their family of origin issues which may serve as a contributing factor to the depressive disorder. Both of these approaches combined with medication therapy increases the likelihood of a successful outcome.

Depression, melancholy, overwhelming sadness and "the blues" are all synonyms for a human condition of deep emotional distress. Typically this state of psychological distress is a reaction to hurt, worry and pain that is not easily alleviated or controlled. While depressed mood can be a natural result of life circumstances, relief is often available without resorting to medications. Working with one of our therapists doing either Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy or Solution Focused Therapy willmost often provide improvement of how you feel. Don't suffer alone, let us help.

Box Score (PDF)
Above the Rim Highlightsfrom our GoPro camera!
PHILADELPHIA -Coming off a disheartening loss to Dartmouth on Friday night, the University of Pennsylvania men's basketball team had one of two directions it could go for Saturday's game against Ivy frontrunner Harvard.
The Quakers couldroll over and let the Crimson run all over them -- not far from what happened two weeks ago in Cambridge -- or they could bear down and give Harvard all it could handle.
On this night, Penn chose the latter.
Penn never trailed in this game, and led by as many as 13 points in the second half. Harvard crept back and made a Palestra crowd 5,267 nervous down the stretch, but Penn made enough free throws to keep the Crimson at bay and win, 75-72.
As a result, Harvard (17-9) now drops behind Princeton at the top of the Ivy League standings, at 9-3. The Tigers defeated Dartmouth, 68-63, improving to 9-2 in the standings. Penn can continue to affect the championship race, as Princeton comes to The Palestra in 10 days.
Tony Hicks had the final point of the game, and it was somehow appropriate; he finished the night with a game-high 24 points, five assists and three steals in the game. One night after taking just two shots and scoring zero points, classmate Darien Nelson-Henry had his second double-double (18 points, 11 rebounds) as well as three steals. Henry Brooks and Miles Cartwright scored 12 points apiece.
What was perhaps most impressive about Saturday's win was the way the Quakers held on. Harvard has won a good number of close games this season, especially in the Ivy League. Not on this night.
Penn (8-20, 5-6 Ivy) was up three, at 62-59, after consecutive three-pointers by Christian Webster and Laurent Rivard sandwiched a jumper by Darien Nelson-Henry. Miles Cartwright hit a pair of free throws, and then after Webster missed a jumper Cameron Gunter shook free and hit a layup in traffic to make the score 66-59.
Wesley Saunders hit a free throw to get Harvard to 60, and then Harvard rebounded his miss of the second foul shot and it led to a Steve Moundou-Missi dunk over Nelson-Henry with 2:43 left.
Jamal Lewis made one of two free throws with 2:07 to play, and then Kenyatta Smith missed a jumper and Cartwright got the rebound. He was fouled by Webster and hit both foul shots to make the score 69-62 with 1:44 left.
Rivard came down and drained a three-pointer that had to have been close to 30 feet away. Penn came down and ran the shot clock down, the final result being a airball 3 that landed in Smith's hands. However, Lewis stole the ball from Siyani Chambers and Cartwright was fouled by Rivard as the clock went inside a minute. He made one of the two, and it was 70-65.
Webster was fouled as he put up a trey attempt, but he made just one of the three shots to make the score 70-66. Cartwright was immediately fouled on the inbounds and made one of two.
Webster missed a trey, and the long rebound went to Hicks who was fouled by Chambers as he drove down the court. He made one of the two foul shots, putting the score at 72-66, but Chambers then banked in a trey that from the top of the circle to make it a three-point game.
Cartwright was fouled on the ensuing inbounds and hit both free throws, creating a two-possession game in the final 10 seconds, and that was important because Webster hit yet another three-pointer to make the score 74-72.
Hicks was fouled on the inbounds with 2.6 seconds left -- a time that the refs settled on after a lengthy look at the monitor -- and made the second after front-rimming the first. Webster's final shot was no good, and only then could Penn players, coaches and fans breathe a sigh of relief.
Saunders, the Ivy League's leading scorer, had 20 points on Saturday, while Webster scored 16. Rivard had 10 points, Moundou-Missi added 10, and Smith recorded seven points and 10 rebounds.
Before hosting Princeton, the Penn men are at Brown and Yale next weekend. The Quakers and Bears will tip off Friday at 7 p.m., and then Penn and Yale play Saturday at 7.
Game Notes: For the first time this season Penn won a game that it never trailed or was tied ... Penn's 38-26 halftime lead was its largest this season ... Penn shot 52.8 percent from the field, the third time in five games and sixth time this season the Quakers have shot 50 percent or better ... Penn had 10 steals, just the third time that has happened this season (the first two came in the first two games of the season) ... Penn had fewer turnovers than its opponent for the ninth time this season, and the first time in six games ... Penn tied a team low for the season and the Jerome Allen coaching era by taking just eight three-point shots ... Freshman Tony Hicks was the game's leading scorer for the fourth straight game, with 24 points ... Hicks has averaged 23.8 points per game in this four-game stretch, shooting 54.7 percent from the field (35 of 64) ... Hicks also tied his season/career highs in assists (5) and steals (3) ... Freshman Darien Nelson-Henry had his second collegiate double-double with 18 points and 11 rebounds ... The 18 points were a season/career high, while the 11 rebounds tied a season/career best ... Nelson-Henry also tied a season/career high with three steals ... Junior Miles Cartwright scored 12 points, his 17th double-figure scoring game this season and 50th at Penn ... Sophomore Henry Brooks scored 12 points, his second straight double-figure scoring game, sixth this season, and ninth at Penn ... Junior Cameron Gunter had four points; he has had 14 points in two games against Harvard, and 16 against everyone else this season.

Vaccinating Goats Against Worms
Researchers have been experimenting with vaccines that prevent worm infection in goats for several years. Dr. Jim Miller, parasitologist at Louisiana State University, has been kind enough to provide information and understanding of this concept. Dr. Miller worked with Dr. David Smith from 2000-2005 testing these "hidden gut" antigens made into vaccine form on goats and sheep at Louisiana State University.

"Fat healthy worm free dogs"
I have used this for more than 5 years with no adverse side effects even before fenbendazole was approved for dogs. Has saved me a bundle over individual doses . I use it at a rate of 1 cc per 10 pounds of body weight even in puppies starting at 2 weeks of age.It Is not a substitute for heartworm medication, but works well on the others. Anytime you use a product outside its recommended usage please use caution as you are responsible for using it.
this is an excellent wormer. Very safe and effective for the removal of worms. An excellent product for the treatment of giardia as well.

It was a rare (RARE) Saturday afternoon moment. Both kids were asleep at the same time, and my spouse was out of the house.

Integrate is driving me crazy, please help!
Hello Mathematica Experts:
I am a biomechanist and work mostly in the area of muscle contraction. I
do a lot of numerical computations using excel, but right now I need an
analytical solution that represents force as a function of position
integrated over a shortening amplitude. I downloaded a trial version of
Mathematica and have tried to obtain a solution for this:
Integrate[(hillb*((f0 + hilla)/(2*pi*f*a*Cos(ArcSin(x/a)) + hillb))) -
hilla, {x, -a, a}]
Mathematica returns this:
(-4 a ArcSin Cos f hilla pi + (f0 + hilla) hillb (-Log[hillb - 2 a
ArcSin Cos f pi] + Log[hillb + 2 a ArcSin Cos f pi]))/(4 a ArcSin
Cos f pi)
I know the line wrap makes this hard to read so please feel free to
email me and I can send you the output as a picture.
In a sample data set, hilla=3, hillb=50, f0=8, a=1, f=1
I can numerically integrate this function and obtain a value for that
sample data set of 14.04. When I put those sample values into the
solution that Mathematica produces, I get 10.01.
Can any of you please give a hand here? I must be making some simple
Mathematica-beginner error but I just can't see it.
In Mathematica, Log is Log to base e, right (LN in excel)? Did I use
variables that have intrinsic functions in Mathematica? Maybe I am
misunderstanding the output with regard to implicit parentheses etc.
Any help appreciated!

DALLAS-Brevard College righthander Zac Joyce has been named Southeast Region Pitcher of the Week for the week ending Febraury 16th, the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association announced Wednesday.
"Zac has done such a great job, and we're really proud of him and this accomplishment," said head coach Matt McCay. "It's pretty special to get a regional honor, and we're glad he's brought attention to himself and Brevard College."
The Walkertown, N.C. native tossed a complete-game shutout in BC's 1-0 seven-inning victory over Catawba on Sunday, allowing just one hit while striking out six. The junior was named South Atlantic Conference Pitcher of the Week on Tuesday for the performance.
"He's worked really hard over the last three years, and it's great to see him receive this accolade," added McCay.
Joyce has now thrown 14 innings on the season, posting a 1.29 ERA and eight strikeouts. Opponents are hitting just .195 against him.
Joyce and the Tornados host a three-game conference series with the Wingate Bulldogs at Gil Coan Field this weekend, beginning with a 2 p.m. opener on Friday.

Brain aneurysm repair is a surgical procedure to correct an aneurysm, a weak area in a blood vessel wall that causes the blood vessel to bulge or balloon out and sometimes burst (rupture). It may cause:
Aneurysm repair - cerebral; Cerebral aneurysm repair; Coiling; Saccular aneurysm repair; Berry aneurysm repair; Fusiform aneurysm repair; Dissecting aneurysm repair; Endovascular aneurysm repair - brain; Subarachnoid hemorrhage - aneurysm
You and your health care provider will decide the best way to perform surgery on your aneurysm. There are two common methods used to repair an aneurysm:
During aneurysm clipping:
During endovascular repair of an aneurysm:
If an aneurysm in the brain ruptures, it is an emergency that needs medical treatment, often surgery. Endovascular repair is more often used when this happens.
A person may have an aneurysm but have no symptoms. This kind of aneurysm may be found when an
Risks for any anesthesia are:
Possible risks of brain surgery are:
Signs of brain and nervous system (neurological) problems include:
This procedure is often performed on an emergency basis. If it is not an emergency:
A hospital stay for endovascular repair of an aneurysm may be as short as 1 to 2 days if there was no bleeding beforehand.
The hospital stay after craniotomy and aneurysm clipping is usually 4 to 6 days. When bleeding or other complications occur before or during surgery, the hospital stay can be 1 to 2 weeks, or more.
You will probably have an x-ray test of the blood vessels in the brain (angiogram) before you are sent home.
Ask your doctor if it will be safe for you to have MRI scans in the future.
After successful surgery for a bleeding aneurysm, it is uncommon for it to bleed again.
The outlook also depends on whether any brain damage occurred from bleeding before, during, or after the surgery.
Most of the time, open surgery or endovascular repair can prevent a brain aneurysm that has not caused symptoms from becoming larger and breaking open.
You may have more than one aneurysm. After endovascular treatment (coiling), you will need to be seen by your health care provider every year.

WOBURN, MA -- City leaders here passed new regulations this month that limit the deployment of coin-operated amusement machines. The new rules, one of which will require operators to appear before a licensing commission to obtain permission to install equipment on location, follows Dave & Buster's petition a few months earlier for special permits to build a new restaurant and entertainment center in this Boston suburb.
The Woburn ordinance, according to sources, also bans "exclusive" gamerooms within public locations, and only permits equipment to be placed as adjuncts to establishment layouts. Additionally, kids under 16 will not be allowed to use coin-op machines after 10 p.m. or during normal school hours, unless accompanied by a parent or guardian over 21.
Dave Buster's, headquartered in Dallas, wants to build a 47,000-sq.ft. facility featuring about 200 games in Woburn. The big box entertainment and dining chain operates only one store in Massachusetts (in Braintree). The second-closest site is in Providence, RI. The operator is also planning its first location for Connecticut; the 26,400-sq.ft. complex will be built in the city of Manchester (east of Hartford).
Dave Buster's, which caters to an adult clientele, now operates 61 locations in 26 states and Canada. The company hopes to open six new locations this year. Children-oriented Chuck E. Cheese's, which operates 567 locations, mostly in the U.S., is expected open more than a dozen new pizza-arcades this year.

Cositas de Monitos (Spanish Edition) (edition 2011)

Monkey Stuff by Rebecca Bielawski
No current Talk conversations about this book.
A very cute book. Its good to have a good lesson. Illustrations are done very well. Good's kid book.
This book is so cute and I know children will love learning how to count and read with it. I think they will like the story about the silly monkey that plays the day away with all the animals. I recommend this book for children who can't count or read yet as well as those that can. Thank you for this fun read.
I received a free copy of this book from the author and Library Things, in exchange for an honest review.
"Monkey Stuff" by Rebecca Bielawski is a cleverly conceived, written and illustrated teaching aid, with cute rhymes used to help teach young children to count from one to ten. Certainly a cut above the average "counting" book, the author uses different animals (and a tree) on each page, with each animal "owning" the next sequential number of some item. But the precocious little monkey also happens to be something of a kleptomaniac, who steals the identified property from each animal.
At the end of the book, the monkey - either by virtue of a guilty conscience or a corrective mother - returns everybody's property to them, and all the animals forgive the little monkey.
The illustrations in this book, as well as the whole concept of the various animals and their property, are very well presented. The illustrations are very well done, and calculated to draw the attention of the young child being taught to count. I heartily recommend this book as a worthy addition to any young child's library.
We really enjoyed this book. The cute little monkey gets into all sorts of trouble taking things that aren't his. (you can count these on every page except for the 10 hairs on the lions head- after they are cut you can count them) In the end the monkey gives everything back and all is forgiven so that it a good lesson on the side included in this lovely counting book. While it is great for the toddlers even my 6 year old loved the illustrations and said that his favorite part was the teeth being stolen! This is a great book for little people and it would be wonderful to have in a print version (ours is digital)
I received this book in exchange for an honest review.
My son (4) enjoyed this book. My only complaint is that on the last number, before the lion gets his hair cut, there are not 10 definite strands of hair to count. On the other pages we would count whatever it is before the monkey takes it, but that's not possible with the lion. It's a small complaint, thought, because after the hair is cut we can count the hairs.

High School Football Participation Down in Toledo
COLUMBUS, Ohio (WSPD) -- High school football kicks off in Ohio tonight, but there aren't as many players on the field as there used to be.
Statistics from the Ohio High School Athletics Association show 44,431 participants in the 2013-2014 season. That's down from 55,027 in the 2009-2010 season.
"There's more sports specialization these days than there used to be and it's probably important to note too that a lot of schools have pay-to-participate fees and what that is causing a lot of students to do is dropping the sports that they don't excel at," said OHSAA spokesman Tim Stried.
Others point to a change in society with kids more likely to plop down in front of the television or computer over the summer rather than sweat it out at two-a-day practices.
A look back at the 1999-2000 season found that only 42,769 players were on football rosters around the state.
"Football is still very, very strong in Ohio, but the numbers just aren't what they used to be," Stried said.
The number of teams has also risen and fallen over the past 15 years. Ohio had 711 teams playing football in 1999-2000. That grew to 754 in 2009-2010, but dropped back to 715 last season.
"We might see participation number go up a little bit this year because we have eight new teams that are playing football this fall," he said.
While there has been an overall decline in football numbers, the number of girls picking up the sport has exploded. There were none in 2000-2001 and 13 in 2009-2010. Last year there were 142.
The OHSAA is doing more to engage students in middle school, not just for football, but other sports. Stried also points out that sports make up only a fraction of a school district's overall budget. Districts that have cut sports have also seen a drop in enrollment as students go elsewhere to play.

I have a reverse-connect binary that connects back to my server on a port, let's say 2020. Because of how things work, I need to be able to monitor this port for the connecting binary, and if it occurs, i.e., the port becomes "active" send commands to the screen as if typed on the server's keyboard (I think you would call that stdin or is it stdout?).
Anyway, the binary cannot be changed, it is hard-coded to connect back to this port and this port alone. Anyone have an idea on how I can do this through an existing BT4 program or otherwise?
