Introducing... Cherokee! He's a 2009 Appaloosa stud colt at the farm where I've been boarding Cinder since May, had Eve there for a bit last spring as well. I've had my eye on him since he was a weanling but fell in love last week - the woman that owned him couldn't catch him and she asked me to "just get a halter on him!" 2 hours later, after learning to use a lariat, 2 bruises on my left hip and a boot full of mud, Cherokee had a halter on and a place in my heart. He was TERRIFIED at first but learned fast that if he stopped bolting and dragging me, the pressure was gone. Anyway, by the end of those 2 hours, I'd caught and haltered him, and run my hands all over him. Came back after 10 minutes and bug wiped him everywhere - he's scared, but willing to learn and wanting the attention! Sorry for the ramble, just excited! I don't have his breeding papers right in front of me, but it's my understanding he's of good bloodlines - going to do my research over the summer and find out if it's worth keeping him a stallion. I've only ever owned one other stallion, a black Welsh Pony - he was great, but I want to know my stallion is adding good things to the gene pool! If anyone on here is educated in Appy bloodlines, I'd love for you to IM me so I can run some names past you! Cherokee is my first registered horse and I want to learn a bit more about it! K, pictures! [IMG]http://i821.photobucket.com/albums/zz134/Picture*****z/Cherokee/sj2010063.jpg[/IMG] His feet are my #1 priority... [IMG]http://i821.photobucket.com/albums/zz134/Picture*****z/Cherokee/sj2010064.jpg[/IMG] Handsome boy <3 [IMG]http://i821.photobucket.com/albums/zz134/Picture*****z/Cherokee/sj2010066.jpg[/IMG] Such a beautiful, alert expression! [IMG]http://i821.photobucket.com/albums/zz134/Picture*****z/Cherokee/sj2010059.jpg[/IMG] I'll be sure to post more pictures as we get through some of our training! Only worked with him twice so far, just bought him yesterday! Going out in the morning though so wish me luck! :D |

Thanks everyone! Sorry for the delay in the update, I don't have a PC so I hop online when I can...using a cell phone now so going to keep it short-ish for now! Cherokee's doing fantastic with desensatizing, his feet are trimmed (his right hind inside heel collapsed from not being trimmed, but my farrier said it's correctable within a couple regular trims), he accepts all brushes, can pick his feet fairly easy, change his halter, had his first bath (rinse off with water from the poll down), AND his first trailer experience! That's a lot of firsts for 10 days! I made a post in horse health regarding one of his legs, not going to write it all again, but would greatly appreciate any input if you check it out. Pictures to come tomorrow when I borrow a PC :) So much more to type about the in betweens of all those firsts, but not using a cell phone! Posted via Mobile Device |
OK so picture time!!! I'll start with his feet...they were a mess! Nearly 15 months old and never had his feet done...until last week! These are before pics...

He has such a sweet temperment - no reason to trust me other than me asking him to. I'm sure that'll change a little bit in his terrible twos, but I'm enjoying it for now! I have some pictures from after his trailer ride home - my mom's miniature gelding LOVES him! Cherokee didn't really care...he was kept beside some ponies where I bought him so it's not new, but he's happy to have a friend! Oh Hai!

We're quickly moving toward a world where business-relevant data analysis will support the fast moving, dynamic customer data from operational and social media interactions. Enterprises will want to analyze and act on this new breed of dynamic data in real time.
Such scale-out data management platforms need to handle large data volumes that change with high velocity and can run on commodity cloud or converged infrastructures. The options range from NoSQL and NewSQL to Hadoop. Each of these solves different data and workload challenges so the enterprise architect will need to be savvy in how to use these new building blocks successfully.
But one thing is clear – next-generation SQL databases are here to stay.
However, in-memory or scale-up databases alone will significantly drive up costs. Employing a scale-out database solution with a smart combination of RAM and flash delivers on these benefits with commodity economics.
In this slideshow, Clustrix, provider of a leading scale-out SQL database engineered for the cloud, will discuss five reasons why SQL, or rather, next-generation scale-out SQL, will make waves in the enterprise for years to come.

Done a lot of reading in this section of headfi and realize this may not exist...
My ipod classic is skipping songs every 15 seconds. No idea what to try besides restoring it, etc. (If anyone has an idea of a solution, willing to try!)
But I'm not loving being linked to the Apple system, though I have been for eight years. I'm willing to slowly re-rip all my cds into FLAC, etc. I have only a handful of proprietary itunes albums.
I want the benefit of a great DAC/AMP to go with my Westone 4. (Well, right now I have a Westone 2, but as soon as it sales, I'll get a W4 again. Or maybe a Heir 4.A1.)
Is there a portable player with a good interface, but even with a crappy sound quality (though I'm fine with good), that has a line out that bypasses the internal DAC so I can pair it with a nice DAC/AMP.

Twenty years ago, the announcement probably wouldn't have happened.
Twenty years from now, maybe it won't garner even a shrug.
But today, Saunders boys basketball coach Anthony Nicodemo's revelation he's gay has stirred debate.
Nicodemo heads charity tournaments, is director of the Lower Hudson Basketball Association and is a Section 1 Basketball Committee member.
Maybe because of that and/or because of societal changes and his timing — his announcement last month coming just before the Supreme Court struck down the Defense of Marriage Act — some people have said, "So what?"
"We don't care. He gets us better as a team," one Saunders player explained, declining to give his name.

I don't really see the virtues as being absolute opposites in practice though. The main difference seems to be where you feel that power comes from. There's large elements of Humanism in Cult of the Forgotten Shadow practice. Holy Light users feel there is automatically a divine connection between the self and the universe where Forgotten Shadow users feel that connection is only forged through your own efforts.
The problem is that -both- seem to be true in the Warcraft universe. Would it be possible for a Draenei to recognize this and feel that though there is a divine connection through the Light, one can also further affect the world personally and forge more connections through measured application of the Shadow? No one is -always- selfless, nor is anyone -always- self-serving. Is such a balance possible?

Placement and Levels
Intensive English courses are divided into 10 levels from low-beginning to advanced. Each level may be completed, with normal progress, in one term.
Students are placed into a level upon arrival according to their initial English proficiency, which is determined by results of a standardized test, a writing sample, and an oral interview.
Advancement from one level to another is based on a student's having achieved course learning outcomes. This is measured by performance on tests, writing assignments and oral assessments conducted during the term, and a comprehensive evaluation of the student's reading and writing portfolio at the conclusion of the term.

Attention French Language Students: Quit Trying to Learn French the HARD WAY!
"Discover the French Memorization Tools and Techniques that Help You Learn French in HALF the Time!"
From the Desk of David Rivera
Dear French Language Student,
What if you could make learning French fun, fast, and easy?
Yep, that's right... No matter how much you suffer, struggle and strain to get your mind around the most basic understanding of the French language...
YOU can quickly and easily learn French, while you actually enjoy the process—in just minutes a day!
Lemme guess... You're skeptical, right?
Because I'm going to give you three darn-good reasons—right now—why you're just minutes away from making French a total breeze for you. I'll reveal...
But before I dive right into the gravy, I must let you in on a little secret.
When it comes to learning a new language, there are two types of people.
The first type struggle for years before they can spit out a few coherent sentences... while the second take to a new language with ease, as if they've been exposed to it for years. Now, here's where the secret comes into play.
You see, most think the folks who take on a new language in a snap are super-fast learners with some kind of "linguistic talent." But the truth is that talents have very little to do with how well your brain grabs onto a new language!
The real secret to learning a new language lies in...
Knowing What To Do At The Right Time!
Do you find yourself...
Spending hundreds or even thousands of dollars on expensive French learning books, audio programs or courses?
Having trouble remembering even the most basic of words... or sustaining a simple conversation?
Wanting to give up when faced with a long list of French words and phrases to be memorized?
If you have, you're most probably on the wrong path.
Truth be told, if you're experiencing anything other than feelings of joy and enthusiasm when it comes to learning French... you're doing it the wrong way. This can not only cost you more time and effort than necessary, it also takes all the fun out of learning.
Why do I say this?
For years I struggled with learning a language. I tried everything under the sun, from enrolling myself in more courses to spending 3 months abroad... just to get myself immersed in the local culture. But alas...
Nothing I Tried Seemed To Work!
It was almost a nightmare.
The more I tried to learn the language, the more I resisted it. I was almost prepared to quit the whole learning game when one day it finally hit me like the proverbial "brick on the head" --- All this learning, all the time and effort spent will come to nothing if certain basic, fundamental words of the language are not memorized!
In other words, to learn ANY new language...
You Need A Foolproof Way Of Remembering The Most Commonly Used Words Like The Back Of Your Hand!
Here's why - Language experts recently found that as much as 50% of all everyday conversations in French (or in any other language for that matter) consists of not more than 1000 words.
In fact, in your normal, everyday usage of French, it is seldom that you will ever come across a need to use anything beyond 1000 words!
Now let's think about this for a moment --- If you have a way of magically imprinting 1000 most commonly used French words in your mind, and be able to use them anytime, anywhere and in any context...
How will it change the way you speak French?
Think about the possibilities...
You'll Be Transformed Into A Highly Proficient French Whiz!
You'll no longer have problems finding the right word to use
You'll no longer struggle just to start or hold a basic conversation
You'll find learning French to be an enjoyable experience, not the bore it used to be
You'll be able to make new friends, broaden your perspective and even impress others with your newfound language skills!
Introducing The Surefire French Learning Package
Unlike other language courses available on the market right now, the Surefire French Learning Package does not just throw you an endless string of words and instruct you to remember them. It actually takes you by hand, and shows you HOW to do so.
Through a mix of creative games and memory techniques, this unique package allows you to boost your language abilities in the shortest time possible by going with your natural flow of thinking, instead of against it.
Component #1 - French Link Words Book
Here's one of the most powerful and best-kept secrets for memorizing French translations (or anything for that matter!)...
The mind thinks in pictures, not words.
For instance, when I ask you to remember the word "waterfall," your brain automatically envisions a mental picture of a waterfall.
Instead of seeing the letters (W-A-T-E-R-F-A-L-L), your mind sees water cascading over rocks or pouring down the side of a cliff. Now imagine a huge grizzly bear in a tiny canoe, rowing towards—and right over—the waterfall.
Without a doubt, I've just placed a clear mental image in your head. And if I ask you about the "grizzly bear waterfall" a week or a month from now, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about.
It's because your brain uses visual images to represent your thoughts. It's also why psychological studies have shown that you can remember and recall more information—faster and easier—by linking or associating words with visual images.
Countless people use this 'linking' technique to remember the names of hundreds of people they meet in business and social situations.
This is good news for you, because...
You can apply the magic of the linking technique to learn French in a fraction of the time over the traditional methods you were taught in school!
And in Component #1, I reveal exactly how the "Link-Word" Technique works and how you can use it to accelerate your comprehension of new French words to lightning speeds.
Even better than that, I've taken the time and creative effort to produce 119 specific Link-Word examples. And I've compiled them all into a nice little ebook you'll get when you place your order today.
Each of the 119 Link-Word examples consists of a short, simple description of a wacky and unforgettable image (like the Grizzly riding the waterfall by canoe). It's a mental snapshot that links a French word with its English translation as part of the mental picture.
Here's how easily you'll cement 119+ new French translations into your mind with the Link-Word Technique :
You can use this technique to remember any word in French (or any other language).
Component #2 - French Matching Game
What's the best way to feed your brain with new information?
When is the human brain most receptive to new inputs?
If you think the brain is best suited for learning French when it's all tensed up or when you're concentrating, then you're making the same mistake as those who're struggling to learn any new language. Simply put, the brain is most receptive and best suited for learning when it is in a highly relaxed state.
Instead of cramming your mind up with French words and phrases, the first component of the Surefire French Learning Package is designed to put your mind in a relaxed state. Something that makes absorbing all the new information much easier and effortless than before. In fact, the whole process is so enjoyable... you don't even realize you're actively learning these new words.
This one-of-its-kind French Matching Game allows you to match up to 25 random pairs of French and English phrases at any one time, generated from a database of 1000 most commonly used words.
Strengthen your ability to remember and recognize 1000 most commonly used French words by pairing them up with their English counterparts
Match either 8, 15, 20 or 25 random pairs of words and phrases at any time, according to your proficiency level - The more number of pairs, the more challenging the game will be!
Sharpen your French vocabulary in a particular area by concentrating on a chosen category of words such as colors, numbers, types of profession or types of food.
Create your own categories and add an unlimited number of words you would like to remember to each category.
Play the French Matching Game for just 15 - 20 minutes each day and use this as a powerful tool to remember any new words or phrases you come across - Simply add these words or phrases to the database!
Component #3 - French Flashcard Program
The second specially developed piece of software, the French Flashcard Program, allows you to learn French using the conventional flashcards method... without any of the hassle!
Take full advantage of the effectiveness of flashcards, one of the world's most widely used learning aids... without the fuss of making your own using scissors, pen and paper!
Learn 1000 of the most commonly used French words (with their English counterparts) all from a single interface, in as little as 15 minutes a day
Save time and choose only the words you want to learn, sorted by category
Add new words and categories as your learning progresses, to learn harder words and to keep your mind constantly stimulated
Component #4 - Memory Boosting Report
The first step to learning French or any new language is to "prime your mind" for all the new phrases and vocabulary that you're going to come in contact with. The best way to actually remember these phrases is not through rote memorization dreaded by many, but through a set of specially formulated memory techniques.
These memory techniques not only eliminate the bore associated with rote memorization, they allow you to retain and recall certain words you've learnt in the most efficient and effective way possible. These are the same set of strategies used by memory experts, chess grandmasters, professors, engineers, mathematicians and those who remember baffling amounts of information.
The Memory Boosting Report included as part of the package reveals 12 cutting edge methods to aid you in learning French:
Link Method - How to create outrageous connections between seemingly unrelated items and remember virtually anything in the right order
Peg Method - How to remember long running lists and have the ability to recall any item in the list, regardless of position
Loci System - Tap into the ancient wisdom of the Romans and learn this time tested and proven method of attaining a photographic memory
Journey System - A fun method that you will enjoy using time and time again! (Hint: It involves imaginary traveling!)
Number System - If you know how to call out numbers in the right order, you can exploit the number system to your full advantage!
Alphabet Method - Learn how to use the alphabetical system already ingrained in your memory to remember more stuff
Major System - One of the most powerful systems ever developed to memorize lists, numbers or words. Learn this and you will always have a "secret weapon" up your sleeves
Story Formation - Learn the new twist on this old method that makes it unbelievably easy to instantly form stories that will stick in your head (I teach you 8 ways to make anything stand out)
Connection Technique - Learn how to attach new information to bits of old ones and expand your mental ability
FLAT - Get things memorized the FLAT way and shorten the time you need to remember by up to 70%
Snapshot Technique - How to overcome the traditional problem of not being able to "visualize" numbers. Once you have mastered this method, you will have no problems with long, running strings of numbers
Phonetic Number Technique - Using this one single cheat sheet comprising of just 10 items, you will be able to virtually imprint numbers, words and information in your mind on demand!
Component #5 - Daily Memory Booster
Now that you know these cutting edge memory boosting techniques, it's time to put them into action.
The world around us is commonly represented in 3 forms --- words, visuals and numbers. In order to develop a photographic memory that works well in a real life setting, you'll need to quickly form associations between words, visuals and numbers using various memory techniques.
This has always been the biggest problem facing those wanting to improve their memory up till now, because it is very difficult to find something that will train the mind to link words, visuals and numbers with the kind of intensity needed to produce results.
Not anymore with the Daily Memory Booster, which gives you an almost automatic way to produce the desired results on your computer!
Simply play the flash card memory game for as little as 5 to 15 minutes daily, or whenever you feel like it. Through the engaging format of a scoring game, your brain is actually strengthening the kind of associations it can make between words, visuals and numbers... setting your way for a photographic memory in just weeks.
Developing a super-memory can't get any easier than this. But wait, there's more than just developing a better memory...
How Will Your French Improve, If You Use The Surefire French "5 Steps" Package?
Let's take a look at how much this package is really worth... Or rather, is it really possible to put a price to the lifetime of education you'll be receiving?
Please understand --- I originally created these groundbreaking tools for my own use only to the tune of a few thousand dollars. This set of learning tools were developed from scratch and you probably won't be able to find a similar set of material as effective in helping you learn French anywhere else.
Why waste unnecessary time and effort when you can literally shortcut your way to learning French?
To help as many French language students as possible, I'm making the entire Surefire French Learning Package available for a low, one time fee of $97 $37. This price is not even close to what this package is really worth, so you can be sure I'll be raising the price once demand for this package starts to increase.
100% Unconditional, Money Back Guarantee
I'm so confident of the quality of this package (and I'm sure you will be too) that I'm willing to take all the risk.
Take my Surefire French Learning Package for a 100% risk free, no obligations trial for a full 60 days. Use it to improve your French and develop a photographic memory. Try all my techniques for yourself.
If within 2 months you're not convinced that this is the BEST French learning package available, simply email me for a prompt and courteous refund. No questions asked.
In other words, you risk nothing just by giving this package a try today - not even your money.
Now is that a fair deal?
Think about this - You can either learn French the easy way or the hard way. Now is the time for you to learn it the easy way, and see results in as little as days or weeks...

Sumac-Crusted Black Cod Salad
Maria Hines coats buttery-rich cod with ground sumac, a fruity, tart berry that grows wild in the Middle East and Italy.
- Active:
- Total Time:
- Servings: 4
- 8 red or yellow tomatoes—4 cored, halved crosswise and seeded
- 6 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon chopped flat-leaf parsley, plus 1/4 cup parsley leaves, for garnish
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 4 ounces baby spinach
- 1/4 cup dried ground sumac (1 ounce)
- Four 6-ounce skinless black cod fillets
How to make this recipe
Preheat the oven to 275°. Put the halved tomatoes on a rimmed baking sheet and toss with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, 1 tablespoon of the chopped parsley and 2 teaspoons of the vinegar; season with salt and pepper. Turn the tomatoes cut side up and bake for 1 hour. Turn the tomatoes over and bake them for 1 hour longer.
Increase the oven temperature to 300°. Peel the warm tomatoes and reserve the skins. Cut the tomato halves in half and transfer to a plate, along with any accumulated juices. Put the tomato skins on a pie plate and bake for about 15 minutes, turning once, until crisp.
In a bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of the olive oil with the remaining 1/4 cup of chopped parsley and 1 teaspoon of vinegar. Season the vinaigrette with salt and pepper.
In a small saucepan of boiling water, cook the spinach for 30 seconds. Drain and lightly squeeze out the excess water.
Put the sumac in a shallow bowl. Season the fillets with salt and pepper and dredge them in the sumac to coat completely. In a large nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil until shimmering. Add the fillets and cook over moderately high heat until browned and crisp and barely cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. If the fish is browning too quickly, reduce the heat to moderate toward the end of cooking.
Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, heat the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the spinach and the tomato quarters and any accumulated juices and cook over moderately high heat, stirring, until hot. Season with salt and pepper; keep warm.
Slice the remaining 4 whole tomatoes into wedges and arrange them on 4 plates. Drizzle the tomatoes with the parsley vinaigrette. Arrange the spinach and quartered tomatoes on the plates and top with the black cod fillets. Break the tomato skins into large pieces and scatter over the fish. Garnish with the parsley leaves and serve.
Suggested Pairing
Oregon produces some of the best Pinot Gris in the U.S. One from the Willamette Valley is perfect for this cod.

So iterate and repeat. Nailing your niche usually takes a few attempts.
Tip #5
Take a risk and just do it.
And also love it. The word "passion" is sometimes overused in business, but when it comes to entrepreneurship, it's a necessity. You must be passionate about what you build because you will spend most of your time working. That's the reality of starting and owning a business. It's also the joy.
Millions of people have listened to Steve Jobs' 2005 commencement speech at Stanford, and for good reason. He nailed the passion issue: "You've got to find what you love… Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle."
And that's my most important advice to you: Do it. Love it. Don't settle for less.

It took over four years to develop, but it's the largest all-terrain operational hexapod robot in the world. Mantis runs off a 2.2-litre, 50 horsepower turbo diesel engine, and it stands 2.8 meters (9 feet) tall. It can be piloted directly or controlled via wifi. Functionally, it can manipulate objects (like pushing a trailer) or fold itself into a truck bed. Advertisement As of now, Mantis walks around at the achingly slow pace of 1 km/hr. Its navigational software has to rely solely on the information given to it by its legs as they touch the ground. Future versions will likely utilize visual systems, allowing Mantis to evaluate the topography of its environment in advance. And then you'll be sorry. YOU'LL ALL BE SORRY!!Anyway, Mantis is available for private hire, custom commissions, events, and sponsorships. Just imagine this thing romping around at some kid's 10th birthday party.

Move the Landscape to Conquer Pseudo-Platformer Continuity
Generic Company Place Holder Continuity
PCWorld Rating
Continuity is a free puzzle game that pretends to be a platformer. Like most side-scrolling platform games, you control a character that runs across the screen, jumps to climb and avoid obstacles, and must make its way to the end of the level. Unlike any other platformer I know, you must shuffle the level itself to get to the end.
Zoomed-in, Continuity looks like a bare-bones platformer. There are no enemies roving around the level, and no other moving objects for that matter. But hit the spacebar, and suddenly the screen zooms out, and you discover every level is made up of tiles. The arrow keys, previously used for running and jumping, now shuffle the pieces of the level around. It is up to you to create a path your character can traverse, collect the key, and make it to the door at the end of the level.
To make it across the gap between two Continuity tiles, the seam between them must precisely match. You can't jump to reach a higher platform on the neighboring tile--you must carefully shuffle them in zoomed-out mode until they match, and then make your move.
Gameplay constantly shifts between zoomed-in and zoomed-out modes. Often, you zoom out to shuffle, zoom in to move, and immediately zoom back out to shuffle again. Continuity's carly levels are segmented into two or three tiles, but once you pass the first few levels, you will have to deal with five tiles or more.
Continuity's soundtrack has a split personality, just like the game: When zoomed out, the game plays a relaxing, ambient piano loop. Zoom in, and the relaxing music quickly fades, to be replaced by frantic electronica. I understand the artistic choice here, but it does create an irritating dissonance.
The graphics are basic, but that doesn't make Continuity any less playable. And if you fall in love with this original game, its next generation, Continuity 2, is available for iOS.
Note: The Download button takes you to the vendor's site, where you can play this game in a Flash-enabled Web browser.

Melting Pot In The Bayous
Take a cup of Choctaw and add Frenchmen: aventuriers de bois and Acadian refugees from Nova Scotia Blend in a Mississippi Bubble, a sprinkling of fugitives from justice, and a few filles de joie Now sift in Catalans, Spanish planters, gens de couleur , and a large gombo nègre Make a Code Noir and some Quadroon Balls Stir together gently, adding Dalmatian oystermen, Filipino shrimpers, Germans, and "Kaintucks" (often rather tough) Add a pinch of pirates Simmer slowly under six flags Serves most of southern Louisiana
December 1963 | Volume 15, Issue 1
By contrast with New Orleanians, who are inclined to be extravagant, the country Cajuns are apt to be frugal, not to say parsimonious. Descendants of Norman and Breton peasant stock, they have retained some of the shrewdness and penny-pinching attributes of their ancestors, and they have a well-earned reputation for driving hard bargains. Some of them are downright miserly. They have a strong sense of pride and are rarely insolvent: their virtues are peasant virtues, and they are easily satisfied—the American mania for gadgets, as strong in New Orleans as anywhere else, seems to have bypassed the Cajuns completely, and in this sense they live as nearly an idyllic existence as is possible in the United States today. Only forty miles southwest of New Orleans is the fishing village of Lafitte, whose main thoroughfare is a footpath less than a yard wide which strings for more than a mile along the shore of Goose Bayou. The tiny houses fronting on the bayou (each with its own cistern) are equipped not with garages but with boathouses, and the family pirogue or motorboat is moored therein. The inhabitants of these houses, who go about bare-footed and whose features reveal the mixture of many diverse strains, are courteous and healthy-looking; some of them are surprisingly handsome, and looking at them, you recall what you once learned in a college anthropology course—that cross-breeding produces a vigorous stock. Except for an occasional television antenna and modern outboard motor you might imagine the year to be 1900 instead of 1963, and it is hard to believe that a great modern city lies less than an hour's drive away. Such contrasts are part of the charm of Louisiana, and help to define the atmosphere that makes this state, with its hybrid heritage, the unique place that it is in modern America.

XCLEVELAND: The Indians were never in danger of running out of baseballs playing 16-and 12-inning marathons last week.
However, about 50 percent more balls were used in ther opener as usual.
"I think we went thorugh about 12 dozen balls in that (16-inning) game; usually it's about eight dozen,'' said Jack Efta, who takes care of the umpire's locker room and applies a thin coating of mud to take the sheen off the balls.
Years ago, the umpiring crew rubbed up each ball with mud from a tributary of the Delaware River in New Jersey. The same mud is used today, but the umpires keep their hands clean.
Efta is the official mud rubber at Progressive Field. It takes him about 20 minutes to rub up one case of baseballs. Each box holds six dozen balls.
The mud is sold at a premium, $60 for small container, though Efta said he uses only two per season.

Nabiyotum Crater, Kenya
Nabiyotum Crater is located in the south of Lake Turkana in Kenya – the world's largest alkaline lake.
Kelimutu, Indonesia
The volcano contains three striking summit crater lakes of varying colors. The lake colors vary on a periodic basis. Sub aqueous fumaroles are the probable cause of active upwelling that occurs at the two eastern lakes. The visitor is never quite sure what color the lakes will be when they reach the top.

Diamond Head, Hawaii, USA
Diamond Head is the name of a volcanic tuff cone on the Hawaiian island of Oʻahu and known to Hawaiians as Lēʻahi, most likely from lae 'browridge, promontory' plus ʻahi 'tuna' because the shape of the ridgeline resembles the shape of a tuna's dorsal fin. Its English name was given by British sailors in the 19th century, who mistook calcite crystals embedded in the rock for diamonds.
Crater in Rocas Bainbridge,Galapagos Islands,Ecuador
Turquoise lake nestled in the crater of this extinct volcano is a shallow saltwater lake. It is a meeting place for a large number of flamingos, who come here to feed.
Xico, Mexico
Xico volcano sits at the extreme southern end of the Mexico City. For a geologically significant chunk of time, this area was underwater, drowned by Lake Chalco. The lake began to dry out in the 1300s, and Aztec fishermen settled along its coastline hereabouts. In the nineteenth century, the government drained the lake entirely.
Molokini, Hawaii, USA
Molokini is a crescent-shaped, partially submerged volcanic crater which forms a small islet located in Alalakeiki Channel. It is a popular tourist destination for scuba diving, snuba and snorkeling.
Seongsan Ilchulbong, South Korea
Seongsan Ilchulbong situated on the eastern seaboard of Jeju Island and said to resemble a gigantic ancient castle, this tuff cone is 182 meters (600 ft) high, has a preserved bowl-like crater and also displays diverse inner structures resulting from the sea cliff.
Santa Margarida Volcano, Spain
The Santa Margarida Volcano is a volcano in the comarca of Garrotxa, Catalonia, Spain. The volcano has a perimeter of 2 kilometers and a height of 682 meters and is part of the Garrotxa Volcanic Zone Natural Park.
Koko Crater, Hawaii, USA
Koko Head has three significant depressions or old vents, the largest of which forms the well-known Hanauma Bay.
Aogashima, Japan
Aogashima is a volcanic Japanese island in the Philippine Sea. The biggest attraction is Aogashima's double volcano. The island itself is a giant volcanic crater, and within that crater there's another, smaller volcano.

Twitter told me over breakfast this morning that it is International Wheelchair Day and immediately my little blogging antennae began to twitch. My experience is short compared to others, and hopefully temporary, but in the last few months we, being my OH, other volunteer 'pushers' and myself, have learned a thing or two. So, in no particular order, and because I want to be quick with this post, just as they come tumbling out of my mind here are a few random thoughts on the subject of 'the wheelchair'.
- We were incredibly lucky to have been loaned this deluxe model by a client friend of my OH. The piece of black fabric draped over one of the handles is what I call the 'granny blanket', because ..
- .. whilst I swore that I would never, ever sit in it with a rug over my knees, I had to admit defeat and swallow my vain pride when I discovered how jolly chilly it can be sitting outside a shop in the snow with one's toes poking out of the plaster cast.
- My grateful appreciation of the lightness and folding nature of the chair itself. It has been a godsend to put in and out of the car, and wonderful to tuck into small spaces in restaurants.
- Then the question of Dropped Kerbs - the lack of them and the blocking of them. All of a sudden the discovery of a handy dropped kerb can be as exciting as the sight of an icecream van to a child. And when this is all over and the blissful day comes when I am allowed to drive again, I vow to try to never ever ever block a dropped kerb with my car - even for a single minute - especially when it is piddling with rain and freezing cold.
- Then Wheelchair Access - something which most fair-minded folk would agree with in theory but, unless a provider or a user of such 'access', might not have come up against in practice. Selfishly I had never noticed steps into shops, whether restaurants had lifts or the toilets were on the ground floor, or, even worse, ever got up to hold the door for a wheelchair user to pass through. But I will now - or I will when I can. And a huge thank you to all those who have opened doors and fetched ramps, - to the young men who even bodily carried me down a few steps in the wheelchair with great hilarity - and to all who have been smiley, sympathetic and encouraging wherever we have been.
- No thanks however to the few who have been quite incredibly grumpy and totally unsympathetic. Those who totally ignore your presence, seemingly wilfully stand in your way and then tut or sigh loudly when asked to 'please excuse us!'
- And another vote of no thanks to the member of staff from Sainsburys who, when asked where we could find a suitable trolley to use with the wheelchair, just grunted and gave a non commital shrug vaguely in the direction of what seemed to be the one and only available, but nonetheless totally unsuitable, trolley. Which brings me to
- Supermarket shopping in the wheelchair which was such a ghastly experience that once was definitely enough. Admittedly it was our Christmas shop and therefore destined to be a tad fraught in any case, but it had to rate as one of my worst wheelchair ordeals yet. The method of propulsion for the above trolley was by means of my hands. So picture if you can this scene. It is the early evening just a few nights before Christmas and one quite tired and fairly grumpy husband pushes an equally tired, but much more grumpy and also injured wife sitting in a wheelchair who, balancing her handbag and shopping bags on her lap is, in turn, pushing in front of the wheelchair a cumbersome and unweildy, square shopping trolley that is about level with her eyebrows. And with the lack of communication that commonly occurs between two grumpy people, when they go round the first corner the wheelchair goes in one direction and the trolley completely the opposite. Result - pulled shoulder muscles, near litigation between grumpy people and other customers, and possible expulsion of grumpy couple from the premises. So to all Supermarkets better, more user friendly wheelchair shopping trolleys please?
- Some friendly advice to 'pushers' - especially if your passenger has no independent control over her wheelchair and has already been nicknamed 'Nervous Nelly':
- please don't exceed the speed limit - at least not by too much
- please don't do 'wheelies' when going round corners - or keep going within a centimetre of the kerb edge
- please do avoid mowing down small children - and getting tied up with tiny dogs on leads
- please don't stand for too long right next to the exhaust pipe of an idling bus, or car, lorry or other smelly vehicle come to that
- please do keep a look out for pavement pot holes, Nervous Nelly is not keen on sudden and involuntary ejection
- please do continue to park me next to children in pushchairs - I love that bit
- please continue to make huge allowances for injured or disabled passengers who are liable to be a bit cranky at times
10 Finally, for now - although I am sure many more thoughts will come to me after I have hit 'publish' - I am not at all sure whether the mirrors in store lifts do any favours to ladies in wheelchairs :)

Firefighter Memorials
In Memory Of Those Members Of The Anniston
Fire Department Who Have Given Their Lives In
The Line Of Duty-
Captain Bert M. Cole- December 25, 1945
Captain Cole was in command of Fire Station #4, then located on West 15th Street. In the early morning hours of Christmas Day 1945, the 27 year veteran, along with his engine company responded to a fire at the Commercial National Bank at 1130 Noble Street.
What is now thought to have been a backdraft occurred around 2 am. A portion of the rear wall collapsed instantly killing Cole making him the first Anniston firefighter to die in the line of duty. He was buried at Anniston's Edgemont Cemetery with full honors.
Firefighter Frank Walters- November 8, 1953
On November 3, 1953, a non-fire related incident on Noble Street, between 11th and 12th Streets, claimed the life of Firefighter Walters. He and another firefighter were standing on the extended aerial ladder of the department's ladder truck. They were attempting to hang a banner across Noble Street urging people to vote in the upcoming election.
A truck transporting ammunition from the Anniston Ordnance Depot struck their truck causing Walters to fall. He struck both the pavement and a parked car below. Firefighter Walters died from his injuries five days later on November 8th.
Walters had recently resigned from the department and was working out his notice at the time of the incident.
Firefighter Jimmy Walker- April 9, 1967
Rookie firefighter Jimmy Walker had been on the job less than 2 months when he became the third Anniston firefighter killed in the line of duty.
On the night of April 9, 1967, Walker, along with another firefighter, answered a call for assistance from the Alexandria Volunteer Fire Department. The volunteers were fighting a fire involving the childhood home of Confederate Major John Pelham.
At the scene, the brakes on the Anniston fire truck locked. Walker was attempting to unlock them from underneath the truck when it rolled over him.
Firefighter Walker's wife was the first widow of a fallen firefighter to receive Alabama's newly created death benefit awarded to survivors of firefighters killed in the line of duty.

Men Decoded: What They Say vs. What They Really Mean
Your Gay Best Friend cuts through the male BS to give it to you straight and simple.
-Brian Clark
Ever feel like your relationship has a plot line similar to the James Bond movies? I do. Guys can be as difficult to communicate with as spies and just as sleuth. After all, both guys and spies don't always say what they mean, can have ulterior motives, and have a lot of gadgets.
To help you figure out what your international man of mystery really means, here's some common guy lines, decoded by your Gay Best Friend…
Read Surviving Monogamy: Tips From Your
Gay Best Friend
I'm not looking to be in a relationship right now.
A guy will say this to a girl when he isn't interested in her, so he can have guilt-free sex for a while before dumping her. It's the "I told you so" of dating. The smart, jerkier, pretty boys (they're usually a VP in marketing, FYI), use this line to pretend to be upfront and open. Then, the moment a girl gets attached, Mr. Junior VP pulls a hidden break-up lever in his nightstand, sending you (and your heart) sliding through a trap door in his bedroom floor. And boom! He's on to his next victim without any guilt, because six weeks before, he had laid out some lame catchall disclaimer.
Don't fall for it.

Lessons from My First Job: Krishnamurthy R, Collabera
CommentsKrishnamurthy R, Senior Vice President & Head of Global Delivery, Collabera reveals his first job experience and how he learnt the tricks of the trade.
My First Job was with I started with Infosys when it was less than 500 people strong.
My Experience: It has been more than 20 years now, but I still remember the first few years very distinctly. It was an exhilarating ride trying to fix bugs, cleaning up code, trying to port software from UNIX to VAX and I was responsible for installation at customer sites. I think I was lucky to be in an environment where responsibility and work were given even to a fresh recruit like me, as long as I was willing to take the initiative, to learn & work hard. I have not had to look back since then.
Things I learnt: Learning to deal with people, the true meaning of commitments and deadlines in a work environment, the power of teamwork, the importance of learning the ropes with simple and basic jobs like testing, fixing bugs.
Skills I Acquired: I became a confident software professional.
My Manager's Teachings: You learn more from failure than success. In fact, I have heard this quote somewhere which I think is very apt "Don't look for mistakes in your learning, look for learning in your mistakes".
My Journey So Far: It has been a very exciting journey so far and I am looking forward to an even more exciting future in the industry.
My most crucial step/assignment:
1) My manager quit within the first week of me starting my assignment. I had to take up a critical part of what he was doing. I failed initially, learning the tricks of the trade. Eventually, I became successful at what he was doing.
2) I had to port and install the software that we were developing for a critical conference and a demonstration in Mumbai. As luck would have it, I was chosen over experienced colleagues to be the go-to-guy and complete this in 3-4 days. I struggled initially, but it turned out to be fine in the end. It had a big impact on my confidence.
My advice: Take more responsibility than what you think you can handle and you will truly surprise yourself!

Power consumption
We measured total system power consumption at the wall socket using a watt meter. The monitor was plugged into a separate outlet, so its power draw was not part of our measurement. To keep things even, we did our power consumption testing for all cards using the Asus A8R32-MVP Deluxe motherboard.
The idle measurements were taken at the Windows desktop with AMD's Cool'n'Quiet CPU clock throttling function disabled. The cards were tested under load running Oblivion using the game's High Quality setting at 1600x1200 resolution with 16X anisotropic filtering.
Ok, maybe it's not so crazy. We've seen similar achievements with dual-core CPUs, after all. And the GX2 certainly acts the part; its cooler seems a little quieter under load the Radeon X1900 XTX's. The GX2 isn't as whisper quiet as the GeForce 7900 GTX, but it's pretty darned good, considering.
Asus GTX 1080 and 1060 cards with faster RAM go the extra mile | 9 |
