Professor of Cognitive Sciences at Brown University (previously a famous education professor at Harvard) published he most influential book, ABC Foundations for Young Children, in 2013. In the preface to the book she gives published proof that most American students finishing first-grade still can't name and write all of the alphabet letters. The best predictor of reading success in rising first-graders, she writes, is the ability to rapidly name randomly presented alphabet letters, and kids who can write the fluently can also name them fluently, and almost never have reading problems.

Lately, I've been thinking about how nice it'd be to have long, feminine hair when I'm dressed up. It'd make getting into that LG headspace that much easier. But growing my hair long isn't really an option in my situation, so I've been thinking about trying to find a wig lately.
Does anyone here use a wig to pretend to have long hair? Where might I go to find an affordable one (it doesn't have to be beautiful and perfect, but I'd rather avoid online buying, or a dollar-store fuzzy purple wig lol)? Thanks for any advice you might have, ladies!

Question about 1998 Isuzu Rodeo
I am having problems getting into gear when the pick up is not moving with the motor running. As soon as it is moving forward or backwards, it engages easy. I have been told that it could be the oil in the gearbox is old or the wrong grade. Please someone help. I have done some adjustments to the clutch. There are no fluid leaks and I have also re bled it. Still cant find the problem.
Posted by boshoff574 on
Clutch adjustment is ussually the cause of such a problem.... oil grade should not have a bearing on the issue; try to lenghen your adjustment rod a little more. For now you can change your shifting habits...Put the trans in first before cranking the engine and before coming to a stop a light...youll soon get the feel of at what speed it will drop right into first, usually just before coming to a stop.

A top adviser to Gov. Pat Quinn outlined Thursday for the first time some of the steps Illinois must take to end the warehousing of mentally ill adults in nursing homes, including violent felons who have victimized elderly and disabled residents.
And at the state Senate hearing in Chicago, legislators expressed outrage with the series of assaults, rapes and murders in nursing facilities, and called for a top-to-bottom overhaul of the state's inspections and safety monitoring, as well as more rigorous screenings of violent offenders who cycle into the homes from psychiatric wards, jail cells and shelters.

My dressing table is from Homebase and on the right of it I have the Ikea Alex 9 drawer unit.
I have two sets of the wide muji two drawers for my makeup. The top contains primers, powders, bronzers and blushers. The second is mainly single/duo eye shadows. The third is mascara, eye liners and lip liners. The bottom is false lashes.
On top of the drawers I have the large and small muji 3 slot pots. The large have all my makeup brushes in. The small have foundations, concealer and liquid eye liner.
I bought an acrylic lipstick holder from eBay which holds my collection of lippies, glosses etc. On the right of that I have my No.7 brush cleaner and a couple of products I'm trying to use up.
I got this white shabby sheek letter holder from Amazon. I use it to store my eye palettes.
On top of my Alex drawers I have an acrylic nail polish storage that I think is from eBay.
I'm pretty happy with my set up. I regularly tidy it and bin old bits that I never use. I don't intend to buy any more storage now as I have plenty of makeup and don't need any excuses to buy more!

Our destination on our trip west was the Palouse. This is a unique farming area intersecting Washington, Utah and Idaho. We stayed in Pullman Washington on our visit and took day trips into the Palouse. We really lucked out again. There had been heavy rains in the area and we could see washouts along the roads and in the fields. However, it was nothing but sunshine while were in the area. The day after we left the had flash flood warnings in the are.
The Palouse is known for its interesting crop patterns. While we were there the winter wheat was dark green, the lentils were light green and the stubble from last year and the newly planted fields were golden.
In addition to the patterns there were old and new building scattered around the area as well as old farm equipment.
It was very strange not to see very many trees. In fact, photographers love to photograph lone trees.
On one of our hikes we met a local and started talking with him about farming the Palouse. My wife mentioned that local farmers in Wisconsin wouldn't attempt to till land as steep as the Palouse. Apparently much of the tilling is done with caterpillars and tracked tractors because of the steep terrain. When it comes to harvest time they use self-leveling harvesters. These allow the columbine to follow the contour of the land while the self-leveling feature allows the cab to remain in a horizontal position. In spite of this there can still be problems. Last year the person we were talking with found a harvester in a gully. Apparently the harvester cane around the corner and encountered some muddy ground. The operator got off to call for a caterpillar to pull the unit out of the mud. While he was making the call the $400,000 slid into the gully.

It's day five here in St. Petersburg, Florida. Yes, Calvin College let us (a group of twenty students) fly to Florida to learn to sail, alongside two exceptional Michigan sailors, Scott Vander Linde and John Ubels, who we have affectionately begun to call, Scohn Ubellinde (their celebrity couple name).
This first post is a tad late, better late than never I suppose, and the twenty of us who are here have bonded and have been more or less forced to get to know one another within the last 5 days. I say, "more or less forced," because upon the second day of our arrival, each of us were literally thrown onto sailboats with people we had known for around 24 hours with nothing but a three-ish hour long class on basic terms and skills and a life vest.
And what an awakening that was.
But since that first Tuesday, it now being Saturday, each of us has improved immensely in our sailing skills in the last four days. Learning to steer a sailboat, man the sheets, rescue an overboard passenger, and most importantly, tack and jibe.
Today we have our first field trip (as if this trip wasn't enough) to Myakka River State Park to canoe with alligators (yikes – if we survive, there will be pics to come), and after that, weather permitting, a beachy afternoon awaits at Siesta Key. In the words of Captain Richard, "Wahoo."

I got your pathetic right here
I'm actually thinking of re-loading Widows 98 on my old, dead laptop. This is the same laptop that I screwed up my Windows 2K install on (don't ask) then couldn't repair because I forgot my admin password (no comments on that either), then couldn't just re-install because I don't have a bootable CD, and there you have it. I tried putting MEPIS on it, but it was too slow.
I am willing to admit defeat on it, really. My thought was, though, I have all these cool old games. Well, two anyway. XCOM:UFO Defense and XCOM:Apocalypse. Love them, and they run perfect under Windows 98. Not so much under Windows 2K and def. not under Windows XP. So my thinking was, I would just make this old laptop my XCOM gaming system, since it is nothing but a very large, very old paperweight. Cool eh? The only fly in the ointment is that I don't have a copy of win 98. It is selling on ebay from 30-80 USD right now. Yeah, right. I am just too cheap to pay that. I also saw some bootable win 2k cDs, but XCOM doesn't run on win 2k, so.
What I need is a cheap or free copy, full version, of win 98. Right.
I also got Age of Empires II Gold version, and I have been playing that when I get a free minute. I was going to get WoW, but defaulted to AOEII instead.

To go or not to go, that is the question.
In a perfect world, there would be no dilemma. I would go. I have other things to worry about, mainly family time and house and garden time. I have a three day weekend that weekend, so it would be incredibly selfish of me to spend it up in North Baltimore by myself at the con. On the other hand I really, really, really want to go.
What to do, what to do.
Oh yeah,
here's the link.

More books
I finished Red Mars. I also just bought Judas Unchained.
Red Mars was good, good enough that I will try and read Green Mars. I was a bit distracted during the reading, and I think a lot of the finer plot points were lost on me. I would get to a certain part of the book, and I wouldn't have "seen it coming". I have yet to determine if the blame is truly my own, or a shortcoming of the author's. It was a good book, however. It was a very plot driven story, with interesting characters (who all seemed to end up dead, no matter).
I just bought Judas Unchained, by Peter Hamilton.
Note to authors. Please, please please. Include a synopsis at the beginning of your sequel novel. J.R. Tolkien did this in his Lord of the Rings saga, it made reading it much nicer. You didn't have to depend on your own crappy memory to remember what happened. I tend to have a life (not much, but one nonetheless), and it is very hard for me to remember the finer plot plots when it can be up to a year between books for me. I am having a hard time starting Judas Unchained because I can't remember what exactly all the characters were doing at the end of Pandora's Star. Judas Unchained starts up right st the end, as far as I can tell, and it is rough going.
Podcasting for slackers?
I am very behind on my podcast listening. I still have 'casts from January that I have to listen to. Yikes.

Kyiv housing advises everyone! - News about real estate, Kiev, Kyiv region. Real Estate In Ukraine
The mayor of the capital Leonid Chernovetsky has invented a new way of replenishment of the budget at least 20 million: paid...Consultations on issues of housing and communal services in Kiev will be paidThe mayor of the capital Leonid Chernovetsky has invented a new way of replenishment of the budget at least 20 million: paid consultations on housing and utilities.In the capital since mid-February of this year commissioned a telephone hotline where you can get advice on housing, utilities, veterinary, medical and funeral services (tel. 8 900 102 5000). The cost of one minute of conversation is 4.5 hryvnia. The service is advertised in the ads around Kiev.According to the Kiev gosgrajdanstroy (KSCA), in 2008 in a call center called about 900 thousand people. "When you consider that the same activity will continue, and on average each person will speak with the operator for 5 minutes, the Kiev authorities will be able to earn more than 20 million UAH", - writes the newspaper "Delo".In addition to our tips, in the near future a new call center will not only be giving advice to the people of Kiev, but also to receive their complaints, for the money.According to the Deputy of the Kyiv city Council from the Bloc of Vitaliy Klychko Dmitriy Andrievskiy, the new call center will pay those who reported the information about the neighbors who rent or rent with air conditioning and satellite antenna.

songs for a summer evening
I've been listening to James Taylor:Greatest Hits and Bossa Nova and I can't seem to get enough of either of them. The way I see it, during summer days you want to make noise. You play your music loud and run and sweat and play beach volleyball and laugh really hard with your friends. But when the sun slides down below the horizon, and the air finally cools; when the scent of honeysuckle lies heavy on the air and you want nothing more than to sit on the porch swing and watch fireflies, that's what these CD's are for.

Some days it's really hard to write. It feels like your creative juices just died in your dreams and you left them in bed. If I had napped today maybe the will to be productive might have returned to the recesses of my mind from the pillow in which I'm certain they're stored.
Still when you make the plan to write a page a day, you trudge on, even when you don't want to. Especially when you've been playing hooky the last few days. So after this I'm going to pick up my notebook and write my basic story line, write some details, and possibly draw a sketch. Something to empty a bit of my brain and keep my hands moving.
Tomorrow I'll be traveling home, like plenty of other Americans, to celebrate Thanksgiving with family. I always feel drained around this time of year because I'm always making decisions on where I'll be with my multiple divorce family. It's never as relaxing as it should be because in the end you always feel like you've offended someone.
I've used the term "nuclear family" to describe my divorced family before, but I don't think it's accurate. Apparently a nuclear family is just a basic family unit with two parents. It can be a gay couple (not my case,) but in the end it is just two parents and their children. I have my mother, my father, and my step-mother. All of whom I am very close to. I have two half sisters, who at half my age are already taller than me. I love them all, but as with any family there are problems. Not to mention the grand parents, aunt, uncles, and cousins who are also affected by your decisions.
It's enough to drive a person crazy or drag a person down. I'm headed on a downward spiral this year. Dread, fatigue, and body aches aside. I will write on.

HOUSTON — Kevin Bass singled home Bill Doran from second base with one out in the 10th inning Wednesday to lift the Houston Astros to a 2-1 victory over the New York Mets.
Doran led off the 10th with a walk off reliever Gene Walter (1-1). After Doran advanced to second on Denny Walling`s groundout, Glenn Davis was intentionally walked. Bass followed with a single to center, and Doran barely beat Mookie Wilson`s throw.

Thanks for the response. To be candid, I'm having mental health issues and pms right now which I think alters things. My husband says I'm acting very different than usual.
I'm usually depressed, not anxious. I think when a five goes toward seven the mental energy can seem kind of six-ish, because you have the withdrawn mental focus of the five coupled with a draw to external information.
Anyway, thanks again. I'm going outside and getting away from the computer now.

Mini Bio (1)
Formed in London in 1970 following the demise of the band Smile, Queen originally consisted of vocalist Freddie Mercury, guitarist Brian May, bassist John Deacon and drummer Roger Taylor. The band became popular with audiences via their hit singles, live performances, originality and showmanship, being voted the greatest British band of all time in a national BBC poll. Their 1985 Live Aid performance was voted the best live rock performance of all time in an industry poll. According to the BBC, Queen have sold more than 300 million albums as of 2009.
Queen enjoyed success in the UK in the early to mid-1970s with the albums Queen and Queen II, but it was with the release of Sheer Heart Attack in 1974 and A Night at the Opera the following year that the band gained international success. They have released fifteen studio albums, five live albums and numerous compilation albums. Since Mercury's death and Deacon's retirement, May and Taylor have performed infrequently together at special events and programs as members of other ensembles. Between 2004 to 2009 the duo collaborated with Paul Rodgers under the moniker Queen + Paul Rodgers, and between 2011 to 2015 with Adam Lambert under the moniker Queen + Adam Lambert.

Rising atmospheric CO2 tends to lower carotenoid levels in plants: Can the global decline in dietary carotenoids affect human vision and memory?Dr Irakli Loladze Bryan College of Health Sciences, Bryan Medical Center, USA
Dr Irakli Loladze
Bryan College of Health Sciences, Bryan Medical Center, USA
After obtaining his MA and PhD in Mathematics at Arizona State University, Irakli Loladze moved to Princeton University for a postdoctoral work. There, in 2002, he hypothesized that rising levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) should lower the concentrations of minerals essential for human nutrition such as zinc, iron, and magnesium in most plant species. However, small-scale studies of crops grown under elevated CO2 did not find consistent declines of minerals. Loladze's multiple grant proposals for larger scale studies were rejected. This left him with published data to rely on for testing hypothesis. After ten years of data gathering, he attained a sufficiently large dataset to carry a meta-analysis. Published in 2014, it revealed a pervasive and systemic downshift in the concentrations of essential mineral in various plants grown on four continents under elevated CO2. Loladze's research influenced the US policy and was covered by New Scientist, Nature, Sciences, Politico and other international media outlets. He is currently researching the impact of rising CO2 on carotenoids in plants.Howard Theatre
Development of Improved Animal Models to Study the Ocular Benefits of Carotenoid and Lipid SupplementationProfessor Paul Bernstein University of Utah, USA
Professor Paul Bernstein
University of Utah, USA
Paul S. Bernstein, MD, PhD joined the faculty of the Moran Eye Center of the University of Utah in 1995 where he currently divides his time equally between basic science retina research and a clinical practice devoted to medical and surgical treatment of disease of the retina and vitreous with special emphasis on macular and retinal degenerations. Dr. Bernstein's current research interests are focused on the biochemistry and biophysics of nutritional interventions against inherited and acquired ocular disorders with particular emphasis on xanthophyll carotenoids and very long chain polyunsaturated acids (VLC-PUFAs). His National Eye Institute funded laboratory is a leader in the study of the proteins involved in the uptake and stabilization of lutein and zeaxanthin in the human macula and the conversion of lutein to meso-zeaxanthin. These xanthophyll carotenoids play an important role in protecting the macula from light induced oxidative damage, and high ocular levels are associated with decreased risk of age-related macular degeneration. In collaboration with Dr. Werner Gellermann of the University of Utah Physics Department, he has developed instrumentation to measure carotenoid levels noninvasively in the eye, skin, and other human tissues using resonance Raman spectroscopy. He has been the vice-president of the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology (ARVO), and he was awarded an Outstanding Humanitarian Award by the American Academy of Ophthalmology in 2016 for his work to deliver sustainable vitreo-retinal services to the developing world.Howard Theatre

Professor of International Nutrition, University of Newcastle, UK
Dr Lietz's expertise lies in the area of human nutrition, with specific focus on fat soluble vitamins, fatty acids and related micronutrients. His group is known both nationally and internationally for our research on diet-gene interactions as an important factor in the determination of high inter-individual variations, as well as in determining total body stores of vitamin A by using the isotope dilution technique. He was involved in the four centre FINGEN trial, the first UK based prospective genotyping study for the ApoE gene to investigate how n-3 fatty acids could influence cardiovascular disease risk depending on ApoE genotype. Following on from this, he was leading a research project within the European Nutrigenomics Organisation NUGO involving seven different European laboratories, which revealed through the application of genome-wide expression analysis, that β-carotene supplementation down-regulated genes affecting lipid and glucose metabolism related pathways. A milestone discovery in my research group was the discovery of novel single nucleotide polymorphisms in the beta-carotene monoxygenase (BCO1) gene. Recently, Dr Lietz initiated collaborations with colleagues in international nutrition (i.e. Prof. Keith West from John Hopkins University, Baltimore (US) and Dr. Marjorie Haskell from UC Davis, California (US)) to determine if a range of single nucleotide polymorphisms can influence the effectiveness of plant-based provitamin A carotenoids to increase vitamin A status in at-risk population groups.Howard Theatre

"The successful test reassures us that the maglev line will open to the public on time next year," said Xia Guozhong, a spokesperson for the Shanghai Maglev Transportation Development Co. Ltd.
During the test run last week, the maglev train, for the first time, ran the full distance from Pudong International Airport to Longyang Road Metro Station on RT (rail transportation) No. 2, Xia said.
The project -- Maglev Demonstration Line -- costing 10 billion yuan (US$1.2 billion), was started in March last year in Pudong District and will be completed by the year-end. If the demonstration line runs smoothly, maglev train will be applied to other domestic routes in the country, the company said.
The maglev rail track facilities, including 4-meter-tall support pillars, railway stations, a repair center and transformer sub-stations, are already in place.
Linking RT No. 2 with Pudong airport, the 30-kilometer trip will take only eight minutes, compared to the 30-40 minutes it takes by a taxi, officials said.
They added, however, that prices for tickets on the maglev line have yet to be decided.
Each train, supplied by German firms, can carry 959 passengers and there will be 12 departures every hour from the terminal at the airport, project insiders revealed.
Meanwhile, construction of green space covering 100,000 square meters along the railway has also been completed, according to the Shanghai Gardening-Landscaping Construction Co.
Launched in February, the greenbelt project, which costs 20 million yuan (US$2.42 million), was designed to grow 15 species of plants within a 50-meter-broad area below the elevated rail, said Xi Xiaosong of the gardening company.

Here we all (most of us) are in Ohio at Nene's house. She is one of the sweetest women I have ever met. I hope I can be that way when I am her age. We had a wonderful time celebrating together.
Our growing family with Nene! (by the way, it took a lot of clapping and jumping to get Jase to look at the camera and smile. Before this photo he was clapping his hands above his head like his Great Aunt Barb was doing while she was trying to get his attention. It was really cute and he was laughing so hard he thought it was so funny.)
While we stayed in the hotel Jason and Jase slept in the same bed together. It was so adorable. Jase was all over Jason as they slept and most of the time was on Jason's head. Teehee...Zach and I slept together in the other bed. He was in his moses basket on the bed. We realized during this trip that Jase is not as light of a sleeper as we thought.

Getting ready for Crufts and bath time …

We're all getting ready for Crufts, I'm really looking forward to it 'cause I'm going to be there as the Well Balanced Pup – which I am of course!

Our friend Helen from Togs for Dogs is making me a very special Well Balanced Pup Press Pack jacket to wear, so everyone will know who I am. Earlier in the week, Sue said I was looking a bit dirty and would need to have a bath because Helen was coming to visit to fit my new jacket. Sue was very busy so I thought I'd go and bath myself. Sue wasn't very pleased … she said that I'd used the wrong bath!

Helen is going to be one of the Judges at Crufts, she's going to judge the Italian Greyhounds … they're a bit cleaner, and smaller, than I am!!

My Dad, Search Dog Beinn, has been busy again and has found another body on the mountains. This was a very sad find though as the person had died. He is a very clever Daddy though and I'm very proud of him. You can find out more about the brave search dogs on the SARDA site.

My little cousin Drift has been having some arty photographs taken … 'Drift in a drift of snowdrops'! She's just passed her Kennel Club Good Citizen Dog Scheme Bronze Award, she's really pleased and so is her person 'cause she's only young. Her ambition is to catch up her Aunty Coire, she is very clever 'cause she's got the Silver and the Gold Awards. You can find out about the Good Citizen Scheme here.

Sorry folks not to have been in touch, I've been on holiday in Scotland ... no broadband, no heating!! In fact I had to bring the firewood off the shore!

Don't you think I look handsome?

My Dad Beinn is a hero. He found a lady and her companions on Crinkle Crags. The lady was in a bad way, stuck in ice in a gully. His human Dad, Roger, thought he was barking at a rock, until he realised it was this lady who could have easily died if Beinn hadn't been quick off the mark and found her.

Some very good news, my little cousin Cuillin (picture further down the page) has passed his registration assessment to train as a search and rescue dog. He's a very clever lad ... he's only just 7 months old. Well done Cuillin and Robbie.

Uncle Charlie (he's a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel so not my real uncle) has been trying out some yummy Yumega stuff. He's funny, he has a dual role. He's a good sort of ordinary dog who likes walks and getting muddy, etc, but he also has to look after his person who is 89 and lives in a very hot house which doesn't do Charlie's coat a lot of good. He leaves a lot of it on the carpet!! He's looking really good now 'cause he's had this oil for a couple of months, so now his coat is on him, not all over his Mum's carpet. He seems to be running down the front field faster as well and must be warmer when he's outside 'cause he's got more coat left on.

Uncle Dave's been on his holidays too, to a house in a town. He's a fast working sheepdog, not used to houses. He's been staying with his son and granddaughter and my sister and my auntie (the one who's going to Crufts). He quiet liked it 'cause everyone said that he was very handsome, but I think that I'm more handsome, but don't tell Dave I said that!

I'm not looking forward to tomorrow, apparently I've got to go for a fitting for a dog coat! How poncy is that? I'm a collie! I've got to go to Crufts as a press dog for Scout, so I've got to have a coat that says 'Press Pack' on it and 'Well Balanced Pup'. I'm no pup, I'm a grown up dog, soon to be a Dad and I hope no one presses my pack, whatever it is.

Success and hard work all round

We had some very exciting news on Sunday. Auntie Coire had been to Stirling to compete in the Kennel Club Good Citizen Dog Scheme Special Pre-Beginner Obedience Stakes Northern Semi-Final. Phew, that was a mouthful! The Southern Semi-Final will be held at Discover Dogs in November. The top 5 collies and non-collies from each semi-final then go to the Finals at Crufts in March. Coire was very good, she not only qualified but she won her semi-final!! We're all looking forward to woofing her on at Crufts. Sue's put a big picture in her Grandma's Brag Book, I pinched a copy to show you.

The Good Citizen Dog Scheme is a very good training scheme that you can take part in at pet training classes. To enter the Special Pre-Beginner obedience competitions you have to have the Bronze Award. I've got the Bronze Award, but Auntie Coire is very clever, she's got the Bronze, Silver and Gold Awards. She's older than me! We knew she was clever though, she can carry 4 frisbees in her mouth and still catch more. Even Frisbee Queen Tilly can't do that, though when Coire's around she doesn't get chance to try.

Dad, Search Dog Beinn, was working hard at the weekend as well. He had to go out until 2 o'clock in the morning looking for some people that got lost in Langdale in that dreadful, dreadful weather. He got very wet, even wetter than I do when I'm playing. He's very brave and clever, but then he is a proper search dog. Dad is one of the fastest search dogs, earlier this year when 2 people were lost he found them so fast that he still had 11 1/2 hours left on his 12 hour glow stick on his jacket! I'm proud of my Dad.

I'd better go now, I can hear Sue banging the feed bowls. Better make sure I get my fair share.

There's been some good weather this week and I've had a few good runs with my mates, but now it's gone grotty again and I'm soaking wet, as usual. Here's a picture of me today after my run. Sue says she's running out of dog towels.
Sue's been putting things in her Grandma's brag book. Apparently my Uncle Brodie has qualified for the finals in agility at Olympia, before Christmas. Sue's most impressed and rather pleased.

Prof Crispin came this week and did eye tests for my little cousins, Cuillin and Drift. She said they were very beautiful, and the pups were quite good looking too! Apparently, I heard the humans talking about how they weren't as good as me 'cause they wriggled all the time and made the job quite difficult. The rest of us dogs had our injections bought up to date. We were all very good.

Sue disappeared off on Thursday for the whole day. Her friend Jenny, who's also a friend of mine, came to look after us, it was great 'cause she plays frisbee all day. Tilly, the frisbee queen, is getting a bit cross with me 'cause I'm getting better at the game and get it more often than she does now. I always give it back to her when she looks cross which seems to please her quite a bit. She feels important, but really Nell is the most important in our pack, after Sue.

I'd better finish now as I've got to write to Scout the News Hound http://www.thewestmorlandgazette.co.uk/leisure/pets/pets_scoutblog/ and give the updates and help with the blog this week. Speak to you soon.

Everyone's been very glum and some of the other dogs have been complaining that they're bored … but not me! I love water … I've had chance to splosh around in lots of muddy puddles and buckets, it's been great fun!

I've had quite a few visitors this week. There's been Paddy, a nice black lab, he's a bit younger than me. Paddy really likes to play with sheep but his owners don't think it's a good idea, so he's been over to learn some 'sheepy' manners. He's done brilliantly and now would much prefer to play with his owners than the sheep.

My slinky sister Etive (aka 'the cover girl') came over on Sunday, I was really looking forward to running around and playing with her, but she was being a bit boring. All the other dogs were out with us so she just went into work mode … lying down and giving everyone the eye! I pounced on her at least 5 times, but she just wouldn't play with me. Two very young cousins came with her too, Drift and Cuillin. I was helping to teach them their doggy manners, though they are really very well mannered already. I thought that Cuillin was going to play with me but when I pounced on him he did a runner! They were a little bit rude though, they pinched my favourite seat in the yard. I'm the only one who ever sits there so I was a bit miffed to see they'd clambered onto it too.

There was much excitement this morning. A man came to buy some of Sue's sheep, and I watched Jess do a brilliant job of bringing all the sheep up the field into the pens. I'd like to be able to do that one day. Jess hasn't lived with us for too long, it was a bit sad really as her Mum died and left 4 dogs behind. Jess is a bit glum at times but seems to have settled in well. She's 9 years old which Sue says is great as she's about the same age as Sue now, in human years, and they're both as slow as each other when working sheep! Not like Dippy Dave who is learning sheep work and is rather fast at the moment.

We've now got to be on our best behaviour for the rest of the day as we've got some very special 2-legged visitors coming all the way from Oz, especially to see me I think. I hope Bliss doesn't rush out to greet them though, she's covered in sheep poo (she's a very naughty girl). Bliss likes to roll in sheep poo, she seems to think she smells really lovely …mirkhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-8815858569526937222.post-46802857820925400812008-09-25T03:09:00.000-07:002008-09-30T07:26:38.359-07:00Visitors, news and our Healthy & Happy CompetitionWell its been an exciting week with all sorts going on here. I had a lovely card from my cousin Mossie who is on holiday in Devon with Carol his pack leader. He's now calling himself Two Moors Moss and is getting very big headed because Carol is so proud of his good behaviour on his very first holiday. He's done the Coast to Coast walk , 106 miles over Dartmoor and Exmoor in eight days. Other than rolling in badger poo and learning that not all farm dogs are friendly he has had a really good time.

Ash has also been to visit this week and we had a play in the paddock together. His mum is a Beardie and his dad is Beinn just like mine. It seems his family is very pleased with him, he's really their blue eyed boy. He lives with a retired police dog and two cats and seems to be having a great time. He has lots of grand children to play dressing up with, he's really gentle with them and he says they are great fun.

Sue and the others at Well Balanced Pup are really happy this week because our DVD has been accepted by Made In Cumbria so we can put a sticker on it - I am supplying the licks .There have been lots of letters even some to me about how much people have enjoyed it.

Apparently I've got to do a signing at Waterstones before Christmas - don't know quite what that means. Hope I don't get too inky on my paws.

This week we've also started our new competition called "healthy and happy" just like me. Sue and co have put it on the website. You can sniff it out on the competition page.

We've now got a You Tube Channel and we can show our web-clips on my blog! The first one is a two minute piece of my Mum, Peg, playing with me and my brothers and sisters. It shows how she plays with us in a rough, play acting sort of way. Looks a bit scary sometimes but she wouldn't really hurt us, even though she does show her teeth a lot! She says she needs to teach each of us in turn, that she is the boss and that we need to show respect to older dogs.

In our DVD, Sue talks about her experiences with re-homing rescue dogs and that if a pup leaves its mum before 8 weeks it is less likely to have learnt these important early messages which can lead to it becoming fearful and aggressive to other dogs, simply because it doesn't understand what other dogs are saying -if they are warning you to keep out of the way or play and just want to be friends. And it can all go downhill from there. We had a great time filming the video and there are lots of tips on ways to give pups like us a good start. Its really like our family video 'cos most of the dogs are my relations! But its not just for Border Collies like me and many of the things we did work well with older dogs or dogs that have just got a forever home, you just need more patience!
The competition entrants and my blog readers will be the first to know when new clips are posted and get a chance to download them from YouTube.

If you know of other people or their dogs, interested in the health and well being of all dogs, please forward the link
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11JcnXNxeyg to spread the word. The more we all spread the word and talk to people about how important these early weeks are in a pups life , the more people new to dog owning will get to hear and the harder it will be for careless or unscrupulous dog breeders to make a living out of the suffering of dogs.
We hope that with the Well Balanced Pup DVD we can explain the importance of the health of a pup's parents and what it experiences in the first weeks in its life, so that we can all play a part in "helping dogs get a great start in life."

There will be a new competition opening very soon. If you want to be added to our email list, email: email@example.com

Is there a dark side to direct shipping?
Is it possible that the ability of consumers to purchase wines directly
from the winery is not always to the consumers' advantage?
Consider this: There are several wineries that use direct shipping not
only to supplement their sales when they cannot achieve distribution
through the traditional "three-tier†system of
producer-distributor-retailer, but are marketing their wines exclusively
through their private mailing lists. These wines tend to be in short
supply, very expensive, and perhaps with high point scores from
influential wine writers (ie., not me) – therefore they are in high
demand from affluent collectors who like to boast that they have wines
that you don't. There is often an active resale market for them on
eBay or wine blogs.
Free market, you say? Supply and demand? Maybe. But have these wines
really been subjected to the free market? When I purchase a wine from my
favorite retailer, it has been vetted for me – by an anonymous
distributor who decided it was worthy of adding to his or her portfolio
(or in the case of foreign wine, by an importer whose name is most
likely on the label as a guide to the wine's quality) and most
importantly, by the retailer I've learned to trust. The wine may not
be to my liking, unless I've tasted it in the store before buying it,
but I can be confident that it is a quality wine, because I trust my
Now, I'm all for direct shipping, but even if I can have my favorite
Finger Lakes Rieslings (or other wines not available in my market)
delivered to my door, I'm still going to buy most of my wine through
the three-tier system.
The idea that mailing-list exclusivity is bad for consumers has become a
rallying cry of Jim Arsenault, managing partner of The Vineyard,
a small but classy wine shop in McLean, Virginia, that specializes in
small production, artisan wines. Arsenault is well known in the
Washington area for his career in retail and wholesale, for his
tremendous palate and knowledge of wine, and for his outspokenness.
"One of the best things about the three-tier system in the wine
industry is the costs of wine are negotiated in every tier of the
system,†Arsenault wrote recently in his store newsletter. "This
process actually creates lower pricing so that consumers get the full
benefit of a competitive market place. The mailing list phenomenon takes
this part of the industry away from the consumer and gives the entire
selling price directly to the producer who has set an arbitrary price
without competing in the open market.
"The price holds no real value in a competitive market place other
than the price goal or the random value placed on the wine by the
producer without competition. This aspect flies in the face of a
spirited market place where quality-and-price ratio builds reputation
and long-term success. What are these people afraid of? Are they really
producing a product worthy of your consideration or just over priced
wine sold to a chosen few?â€
Arsenault is expressing the frustration of a retailer whose customers
brag about their mailing list wines – or who offer to flip him a few
bottles for a "small†profit – but he makes an interesting point
that merits discussion. We advocates of direct shipping are all about
the free market and competition, quick to slam the wholesalers for
limiting our selection of available wines. Yet here is an example where
the free market arguably may not work to the consumer's benefit.
Ultimately, of course, the "market†here is much narrower than
Arsenault's perspective. If a winery can sell its entire product to an
exclusive list at the price it sets, well then, more power to it. And
if the people on that list like the wine and are eager and willing to
part with their money to get it, well I say go for it. I'll read
about these wines on the blogs. I don't care if I never taste them.
There's plenty of wine for me.

What hosts are saying about [email protected]
I went to a supperclub event in June 2017. The food was very tasty, the portions were sizeable to say the least and the ambience was great. The hostess was friendly and personable and overall the experience was really enjoyable. I would recommend this event to anyone who feels like trying out some zesty flavours in a cool atmosphere and setting!

The food was excellent, flavours worked really well together, everything was well planned out and attractively presented. Some of the flavours I've just never tasted before and some completely reminded me of some of the places I ate at in Zanzibar. The vegetarian course was great, and my husband enjoyed his non-veg menu as well. Highly recommended.

Call (888) 651-9785
February 2016
After booking I was contacted to say the pick-up would be 9am, driver didn't arrive until 10. Journey to Yas Island was about an hour, and then we were told we would be collected at 4pm. The information on the website states that it's approximately 9 hours - even if that included the travel time that would have meant that we should have been collected at 5pm with the 9am pick-up. So due to the lateness of collection at the start and the early collection at the end, we only had 5 hours at Yas Island. Ferrari World and the Yas Marina circuit are definitely worth a visit, but be aware that it may need to be rushed.

Hi there
I am trying to solve this exercise:
Find $\displaystyle M \in \mathbb{F}_7^3$ such that $\displaystyle \forall x,y \in \mathbb{F}_7^3 \setminus \{0\} \exists m $ such that $\displaystyle M^m*x=y$
So I searched for a generating Matrix that has full rank? But when trying $\displaystyle \Big( \begin{matrix}2 & 3 & 5 \\3 & 5 & 2 \\5 & 2 & 3 \end {matrix} \Big)$ I couldn't prove that this is a bijection allthough it has full rank and all the numbers do not divide 7??
Do you know the way finding such a matrix here?
Thanks for reading

Anyone who operates a Nissan knows that when it comes to repairing their automobile only the absolute best replacement parts will do. Your Nissan dealership isn't the only place to locate genuine or original equipment quality replacement parts for your 710. While it's not hard to locate replacement parts for Nissan vehicles, these days the necessity for nothing but the absolute best are required to maintain your car or truck. Obviously, you didn't buy your 710 unless you wanted to buy Japanese engineering and driver satisfaction both impeccably combined into one car, truck, or SUV.
Without the timed ignition systems in our internal combustion engines, we would need an alternative like the turbine engines we find in jets. The fact that your Nissan 710 has mechanically timed ignition means that it has a distributor. Your distributor has several components inside of it, each one susceptible to failure. However, as the distributor rotates thousands and thousands of times during each trip, the whole part is bound to fail eventually. Your replacement Nissan 710 distributor should be just as good as your original.
Trust in the value of the parts you get from carpartsdiscount.com and realize incredible savings on all your upcoming repairs. At Car Parts Discount, we have live customer service members on the phone with enough expertise to help you select the appropriate Nissan 710 part for your needs. Bring your 710 back to life with the best repair parts from the experts at Car Parts Discount. When it comes to Nissan 710 Distributor parts, you can find them for 1977, 1976, 1975, 1974 models by clicking the appropriate year below.

Retrospective — Sept. 7
Twenty years ago — 1997
Speaking from a heart whose warmth had been questioned, Queen Elizabeth II broke the royal reticence over Princess Diana's death in an Aug. 31 automobile accident, calling her "a remarkable person" whose memory must be cherished. Since the tragedy, the royal family had been roughed up by the tabloid press and criticized by ordinary people as remaining too aloof at Balmoral Castle in Scotland, failing to join in the public grieving. Hurt by the accusations, the queen and her husband, Prince Philip, mingled with the crowds at London's royal palace, which have been inundated with floral tributes.
Thirty years ago — 1987
From Just Between Us ….. John Slaughter, of John & Margo Photographic Studio, 38 Middlesex Drive, Fredonia was awarded the photographic Craftsman Degree by Professional Photographers of America Inc., during the association's annual international convention in Rosemont, Ill., in August. The degree, one of the highest honors for professional photographers, was granted to the Fredonia photographer for exceptional service in the field of photography.

A program of homogenous groupings, which has been experimented with for two years in Buffalo public schools, will be put into operation on a small scale in three Dunkirk elementary schools. In this program, children of high academic calibre and intelligence will be grouped together. In this way, it is hoped that more of a challenge will be presented to them above average child. This is hoped to prevent accelerating the student, or letting him "skip" grades, where serious social consequences have been known to occur.

LARRY MURPHY wasn't the first Penguin to come out of the locker room, but he was the first to speak.
Tom Barrasso, the Pittsburgh goalie walked into tomb-like silence of the locker room, past camera crews, reporters, gathered his clothes and walked away. Jaromir Jagr, the Penguins' star right wing, flashed by the crowd with barely a glance left or right.
Finally, Murphy emerged, looked at the throng, shrugged and gave the Islanders their due.
"We didn't hand it to them," he said quietly. "They took it."
The Penguins two-year run as Stanley Cup champions had been ended -- dramatically -- in overtime by an Islander team very few had given a chance to win last night in Game 7.
The Islanders had snatched a 3-1 lead in the third period, and then watched the desperate Penguins storm back and score two goals in the last four minutes of regulation to force overtime. Then David Volek, an improbable star in this bizarre Islander season, skated in from the right wing, and slapped a shot past Barrasso at 5 minutes 16 seconds of sudden death, leaving 16,164 fans at the Igloo stunned.
"A lot of people made out that we were supermen," Pittsburgh Coach Scotty Bowman replied when asked whether he was shocked at the outcome. "Obviously we're not, and we knew we weren't."Continue reading the main story
But no one knew who these Islanders were either. Or how they managed to pull of the biggest upset of the Stanley Cup playoffs after losing key player after key player. They had lost Pierre Turgeon, their best player and leading scorer with a separated shoulder in the Washington series. Pat Flatley, their captain and one of their best defensive forwards, was hurt in Game 5 and missed Games 6 and 7. Travis Green, who had done such a solid defensive job on Mario Lemieux, was flattened by Pittsburgh's Ron Francis in Game 6 and missed last night's game.
Glenn Healy, the Islander goalie who wasn't even a starter most of the season, played the game of his life tonight, stopping 42 shots.
One replaceable part after another.
"Somebody gets hurt, somebody else comes in and does the job," Islanders Coach Al Arbour said. "They're pulling for each other, they're working for each other. That's the secret, right there. And they refused to give up against all odds."
The source of that determination is the 60-year-old Arbour. Between 1980 and 1983 Arbour led the Islanders to four consecutive Stanley Cup championships. There was grumbling that anyone could have won with that team.
This season Arbour has blended a good mix of veterans with young players. He told all of them to forget about where they had come from and what they'd done while they were there. Like he'd forgotten about the 80's.
Arbour said: "I tell our players, 'Don't look back. There's nothing you can do from the past. You can only do something that's right now, in the future. Look ahead, never look back.' "
Throughout this series, the Islander success was attributed to their loose, relaxed attitude while Pittsburgh carried the burden of success and great expectations.
Loose. That's what concerned Pittsburgh about New York early on -- that the Islanders didn't seem to care; not only about the Penguins' well being, but -- more frighteningly -- about their own.
In Game 6 on Wednesday night Darius Kasparaitis decked Lemieux twice -- the first time undetected. The second time he was called for roughing. Early in the third period he caught Jagr near center ice with a shot that kept Jagr down for three minutes.
Between Wednesday and this morning, however, the Islanders were hit by the realization that they do have something very great to lose.
Flatley admitted before last night's game that the newness of unexpected success, the thrill of going further than expected had worn off and been replaced by a hunger for more.
"We're as desperate as they are at this point," he said.
Where do the Islanders go from here? To Montreal for a four-of-seven-game series beginning Sunday. But where after that?.
There is talk that Arbour might rejoin his close friend and former Islanders General Manager Bill Torrey in Florida with the expansion Panthers. Arbour this afternoon called the scenario ridiculous.
The franchise remains in transition. It is not clear who will own the team next year and what direction it will take after the sale.
"We're not thinking of next year," Flatley said before last night's stunning upset. "We're thinking that with a win we go to the semifinals of the Stanley Cup semifinals."Continue reading the main story
