I devoted my two months at CASVA to a short survey of late Renaissance drawing in order to complete an ongoing repertory of painting in Romeand Latium during the second half of the sixteenth century. My research pursued two main tracks: first, I attempted to identify new drawings by a number of little-known artists of the period, whose work very few scholars have investigated; second, I analyzed a large number of drawings for frieze decorations in Rome, in an effort to understand the inner workings of the ateliers and the production of these projects.
The tremendous resources of the National Gallery of Art Library and its department of image collections allowed me to assign new attributions to several drawings by remarkable Roman mannerist artists. These included newly identified additions to the corpus of Girolamo Muziano (1532 – 1592), an extraordinary late Cinquecento draftsman whose oeuvre has not yet been the subject of a systematic study. Particularly significant among these are a project for a painted oval in the apse of the Cappella Ruiz in Santa Caterina dei Funari, Rome, and a landscape drawing, both of which contribute to our understanding of the early activity of the artist. In addition, I discovered other unpublished drawings by Giovanni de' Vecchi (1543 – 1615), Livio Agresti (1505 – 1579), and Ferraù Fenzoni (1562 – 1645), petits-maîtres of Roman mannerism.
One of the most gifted draftsmen of the period is Raffaellino da Reggio (c. 1550 – 1578), whose work has often been attributed to Federico Zuccaro, his master, or Giovan Battista Lombardelli, his pupil. I found several sheets of grottesche possibly by his hand, mainly decorative inventions not designed for a specific project but rather skillful exercises on the grottesca theme, in which Raffaellino was certainly one of the specialists in Zuccaro's workshop.
The most important discovery was the identification of a set of five drawings by Giovan Battista Ricci da Novara (c. 1550 – 1627) for one of the frescoed ceilings in the Palazzo Colonna in Rome, commissioned by Cardinal Ascanio Colonna between 1589 and 1593. The drawings, made for the decoration of the so-called Sala da Pranzo of the Riario apartments, at that time the library of Cardinal Colonna, represent the center of the vault and four Virtues — Justice, Fortitude, Temperance, and Hope — in elaborate decorative frames. In the finished frescoes, the Virtues were replaced with allegorical figures of Theology, Philosophy, Poetry, and Jurisprudence, in emulation, as John Shearman has established, of Raphael's ceiling in another well-known library, the Stanza della Segnatura in the Vatican. The discovery expands the corpus of this artist, especially with regard to his early work. In addition, it reveals his skill in illusionistic perspective.
For the second part of my research, on the relationship between preparatory drawings and executed fresco decoration in Roman workshops at the end of the Cinquecento, I analyzed and compared a large number of drawings devoted to fresco cycles in Roman palaces. After visiting two very relevant collections, at the National Gallery of Art and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, I compiled some general reflections from the study of unpublished or less well-studied sheets. Copies after the autograph drawings of the master were still an essential practice in the late Renaissance atelier. A good example is a drawing in the Metropolitan Museum (80.3.565) for a ceiling segment, undocumented but probably attributable to a Roman painter working during the pontificate of Pius IV (1559 – 1565), which reproduces in a simplified manner a decorative project in the Codice Resta of Palermo (copied also by a weaker hand on a sheet in the Nationalmuseum, Stockholm).
Sometimes atelier copies can be identified directly from the finished fresco, as in the case of one drawing (Kunstbibliothek, Berlin, 903) that reproduces, without variation, a section of the ceiling in the Sala di Giove in the Palazzo Farnese in Caprarola, decorated with frescoes by Taddeo Zuccaro; it is likely an exact copy made in the workshop of Zuccaro, possibly by Antenore Ridolfi or Francesco Nardini.
Motifs created within the great masters' workshops were disseminated among pupils, who reused them in peripheral fresco cycles; consider, for instance, a drawing by Taddeo Zuccaro in the National Gallery of Art, used by a still unidentified artist from the circle of Vasari to make monochrome medallions with tritons and nereids in the corners of one of the ceilings in the Palazzo Cesi at Cantalupo (Rieti, Lazio).
Through the second half of the sixteenth century, drawings for frescoes increasingly include detailed written indications of the colors to be used, the spaces for which they were destined, or iconographic subjects, evidence of the preponderant contribution of collaborators as opposed to the direct involvement of the master. The most famous examples are Taddeo Zuccaro's drawings with instructions for his pupils, but similar annotations appear on drawings by Daniele da Volterra, Federico Zuccaro, and Antenore Ridolfi. Furthermore, it is interesting to note that sketches for landscape friezes often include, in addition to decorative frames, the landscapes as well, suggesting that the same artist was responsible for both. Only in the most prestigious cases, such as in the major papal commissions of Gregory XIII and Sixtus V, do we find a different painter, a specialist in landscapes, engaged in executing these portions of the frieze.
The rich bibliographic and photographic material I consulted and gathered during my fellowship at CASVA has been essential to this more exacting study on sixteenth-century Roman frescoes and will prove valuable as well for my future projects on late Renaissance drawing in Rome.

Oakland's low-key, feel good training camp isn't feeling so good after the last few days.
Just one day after Raiders players were chanting in support of their fighting coach, we learned that a more important member of the organization than defensive assistant Randy Hanson has a broken bone to worry about.
Chaz Schilens, the team's best receiver, broke the fifth metatarsal in his left foot early Tuesday. The timeframe of his return is unclear, although Schilens admitted that it would take a "miracle" for him to be ready for Week One.
Schilens' injury is similar on the surface to the one suffered by Rams receiver Donnie Avery, who was expected to miss 4-6 weeks.
A seventh-round pick in 2008, Schilens arguably was enjoying the best training camp of any Raider. His performance in the team's preseason game was eye-opening, showing a great mix of toughness, speed, and terrific hands.
With Schilens out, Darrius Heyward-Bey and Johnnie Lee Higgins look like the team's starters. Javon Walker is expected to come off the active/PUP list Monday after missing the entire offseason following knee surgery.

Keyword : language, change, maintenance, culture
Language change is a common phenomenon, but its nature is mysterious.(Murray in O grady, 2005). Although every language may experiences the change either slowly or quickly but for its speaker that change can not be observed clearly.Language change is an interesting topic to discuss since it is the common phenomenon faced by all of us, the language users. A language change is usually
characterized by the change of language structure. This claim is mainly based on Crystal s statement that all aspects of language structure and their usage may change (Crystal, 1987: 328).
Language change that happens almost on the languages in the world actually moves to the same direction: language simplification. This simplification can be manifested in all language aspects such as: phonology, morphology and
syntax. That simplification happens systematically so that it creates an observable pattern of change.
Related to above language aspects that may changes, the main aim of this paper is to discuss language change in the level of sound (phonology), words structure (morphology) and sentence structure (syntax). Hopefully, discussing above aspects will give us a better understanding about language change. This understanding becomes a strong empirical foundation that gives us guidance in taking any necessary efforts due to our
language change. Maintaining a language is the key word to ensure the preservation of the culture since language and culture are like two sides of intertwined coin.
Therefore, the second issue addressed in this paper is the efforts may be done by language users to maintain their language as a part of preserving their own culture.

text: The Brooklyn Nets evened up the season series with the New York Knicks at 2-2 last night, thanks to a dagger from Joe Johnson. Knicks players were understandably salty after the game. Per the NY Daily News: "It's over,' Carmelo Anthony said after Brooklyn rallied for an 88-85 win at the Garden on Martin Luther King Day. 'We don't see them anymore. It is the beginning of something that is going to be there for a long, long time. These games that we play against Brooklyn definitely are going to be tough hard battles.' The Nets evened the season series at 2-2 when Joe Johnson hit the go-ahead jumper with 22.3 seconds left and when Anthony failed to strike iron from close range with Gerald Wallace's hand in his face. Brooklyn's first win at MSG improved the Nets' record to 25-16 and moved them to within one game of the first-place Knicks (25-14) in the Atlantic. 'Two and two against them stinks,' J.R. Smith said. 'It's like kissing your sister.'"

Sweden issues alert over dyed pork sold as beef
Sweden's National Food Agency has issued a warning after as much as 20 tonnes of meat labelled as beef turned out to be coloured pork.
An investigator at the agency, Pontus Elvingson, told the BBC that tests were still being done to identify the dye.
The Swedish firm Heat AB imported the meat from a supplier in Hungary called Filetto. One of the suspect batches originated in Argentina.
Checks show that the dyed meat was first sold in Sweden a year ago.
It is not yet clear if Filetto also exported doctored pork to other countries. The Swedish agency has alerted EU authorities.
The BBC was unable to reach Filetto for comment.
Contamination threat
Mr Elvingson said the fake beef had been sold to several Swedish retail outlets, including restaurants. So far about 3.5 tonnes has been removed from sale.
"There is no indication that Heat AB sent any of the meat abroad," he told the BBC by phone. Heat AB was not registered as a food company, he added.
In Sweden, he said, "it's difficult to tell how much [doctored meat] there is and we don't know if it has all been sold".
"The pigmentation of beef is different - this meat is red, but seems not so well dyed in parts, so maybe it was injected with needles," he said.
If needles were used to inject the dye then bacteria could have been transferred from the meat's surface to the interior, increasing the risk of food poisoning, he added.
The agency was tipped off by Swedish wholesaler Svensk Cater, following a complaint from a customer.
Heat AB's Managing Director Ake Hultberg told Reuters news agency that the meat he had tried was good.
"When we received the product, I looked at it, I opened a box and took a sample which I myself fried and looked at it.
"And there was no problem with it but when it later came to Svensk Cater, there were fillets that were not beef but pork," he said, insisting that parts of the delivery were real beef.

Pregnant Casey Batchelor glows as she shows baby bump in a plunging pink dress on holiday in Cyprus
She recently revealed she's expecting her first baby with her secret businessman boyfriend
PREGNANT Casey Batchelor glowed in a chic pink dress which showed off her growing baby bump yesterday.
The reality star soaked up the sun as she enjoyed a stroll in Cyprus.
The Celebrity Big Brother star, 33, looked relaxed and happy in flip flops as she cradled her baby bump.
She was seen in public at Stansted airport for the first time two days ago since it was revealed she's expecting her first child.
After confirming her baby news, she wrote on Twitter: "Being sick before you get on the plane is not the one."
Casey's baby daddy has been revealed to be a guy she's been secretly dating for 18 months - Dane Goodson, 32.
She's settled down with the Kent businessman after failed romances with a string of famous exes, including Jermaine Defoe, Lee Ryan and Peter Andre.
A source close to the star said: "It's been a long time coming for Casey who's had such bad luck with guys.
"She was considering freezing her eggs because she thought her happy ending would never happen.
"But it really was love at first sit for her and Dane and a year and a half on they are overjoyed about becoming parents.
"She really believes she's finally found her Prince and loves he's someone completely separate from the industry."
Casey confessed to the secret romance earlier this year and admitted she was finding it odd no longer being known as "the single girl" among her friends.
She said: "We've kind of moved in with each other and we have spoken about marriage. We are very much in love, so we're going to see what happens.
"He's really lovely and we get on really well. I think he's going to be the man I'm going to be with for the rest of my life."

"It's Project Management Jim – but not as you know it!"
Our intent with this article is to provide an overview of the main contributors for projects failure and a hint of effective solutions. In continuation, we will release a series of articles detailing these solutions and providing you guidance to improve your current processes.
Several studies about the success of Project Management in different industries have demonstrated one common problem: projects generally have much higher failure rates than success rates. As study after study has shown, well over half of time projects fail to deliver their results on time, with the expected quality and on budget, due to ineffective Project Management (1). Thus, enterprises are starting to realize the necessity of investing more time and efforts on improving their current Project Management standards. The Lean philosophy provides the platform for these improvements and more importantly, it brings the significance of developing an appropriate culture (with the right behaviors) to support them.
There are various issues which could negatively impact on a project's outcome; these are the most relevant (and critical) ones:
1. The development of a Business Case is not an option – it is a necessity!
The Project Charter is a product of a business analysis, also called Business Case. A Business Case is typically performed to determine, from a business standpoint, whether or not the project is worth the required investment. Generally, the Business Case includes the results of a business and a cost-benefit analysis. These results help not only the executives' decision making, but also help stipulating project boundaries and relevant objectives.
Many organizations brush over this step of the process jumping straight to the development of the Project Charter with arbitrary targets; others develop vague business cases based on information that can be misleading and result in incorrect decisions. Without a deep evaluation of the business current scenario, risks and opportunities, it is extremely difficult to establish the real project potential and the feasibility of achieving targets.
Project potential and boundaries are normally determined through data investigation (Loss or Value added analysis) or comparable performance (Benchmarking analysis), depending on the project scenario. 'The gap between the current and desired future states need to be clearly identified and so are its reasons' says Martyn Holmes from Lean Coaching, 'This will show what can be achieved and how, in a pre-established period of time'. Lastly, he adds, 'It is important to say that a project analysis can't be completed behind a desk or in a room; you need go and see processes, confirm data and talk to the people involved. This is what will bring validity to the Project Charter and also start to create buy in at an early stage'.
2. A poorly developed Project Charter leads to a weak Project Management Plan.
A Project Charter is more than a document authorizing the existence of a project; it is a document which sets direction, expectations and boundaries for the project through the establishment of:
- High-level project requirements (purpose, business requirements)
- SMART project objectives
- Brief summary of milestone schedule
- Project organization – the stakeholders' list, including main Sponsor(s) and Project Manager with clear roles and responsibilities
- Reporting mechanism and Visual Management tools (meeting structure, agenda, inputs and outputs)
- Escalation process
- Team behaviors
This document provides the Project Manager with the authority to apply organizational resources to project tasks and work as a baseline for the creation of the Project Master Schedule. A well-defined Project Charter provides the necessary information for the development of the level 1 Plan (Project Master Schedule or Summary Implementation Plan) and level 2 Plan (Functional Implementation Plan).
Organizations often undervalue the importance of establishing a clear Project Charter. Most organizations have no standard procedure to create a Project Charter; therefore it is common to see:
- A vague document hard to be used as reference for planning
- Same Project Charter content for different project sizes (no scalability)
- Uncontrolled projects due to a poor setting of the Project Organization and their authority level
From the Business Case to the Project Charter, projects must be first classified based on their size and then compared against a pre-defined Scalability Matrix. The Scalability Matrix defines, according to the project size, the Visual Management tools, the level of Project Organization and time required by staff in a project. 'This is developed with the purpose of setting a "lean" standard (avoiding waste) for projects, based on their sizes' says Martin Machin from Lean Coaching, 'It provides clear guidance for the development of the Project Charter and initial planning of the project' he adds.
A robust Project Charter supports the development of a strong Project Plan. 'The Project Charter establishes the project's major milestones through the project objectives' says Martin, 'These milestones help not only driving progress, but also putting pressure to problem solve early on in the project'.
3. All projects have milestones, they are just not taken as serious as they should
One fundamental goal for projects is to make problems visible and solve them at the start – while they are still "on paper" and thus cheaper and faster to fix – rather than later in the project. It is however common, to see the accumulation of unresolved problems at the relevant milestones and these only get resolved (sub-optimally), when the expense or physical manifestation inevitably become clear towards the time of handover. In the worst case, problems only come to light through customer feedback. 'This "slippage" is typically due to one or more of the following: 1) lack of resolve/discipline, 2) lack of capability in Lean Project Management, e.g. no Andon/stop the line type process, to raise and countermeasure problems and/or 3) Lack of transparency of the project status, through frequent updates' says Gert Haar-Jorgensen from Lean Coaching.
Hence, the objectives defined in the Project Charter should be translated into aggressive milestones in the Project Schedule/Plan and the progress reviewed frequently, the status visualized and monitored through KPIs along with the use of the PDCA-R (Plan, Do, Check, Act and Reflect) approach. 'The back-spikes (2) for deviations from plan and the gaps to the target KPIs drive problem solving' says Martin. 'The use of 'mini PDCA loops' throughout the project supports the early identification of deviations and elimination of the root-cause-problems resulting into achieving their objectives and realizing the anticipated business potential'.
4. PM's role often goes beyond his remit – He/she is not the one to blame!
In many organizations today, the job as a PM is no longer considered a very desirable one. Generally, PMs are held accountable for much more than they are responsible for; they front projects and soon become overloaded with responsibilities which ideally should be shared across a pre-stipulated project organization. This situation not only sets the wrong expectations for stakeholders (especially for project sponsors), but also creates unnecessary stress and the ideal conditions for the PM to fail and thereby the project.
Though PMs have overall responsibility for the project, they cannot be the only ones accountable for its success or failure. The PM manages the project on behalf of project sponsors, commonly represented by the Steering Committee. He/she is responsible for the project coordination of the execution and transparency – the project's overall working directions, the alignment and synchronization of activities for the primary and supporting functions, the periodical report of project status and escalation of relevant issues to the Steering Committee. Hence, the PM shares the accountability for the project with its Steering Committee by managing the project's organization execution of activities. 'Sponsors, through the PM, delegate responsibility to the organizational functions (to a so called "Representative") that he/she is responsible for, so they become responsible for delivering their functional plan and objectives. He/she shares the accountability with the PM for the deliverables' says David Hurst from Lean Coaching.
Along with properly defining the PM's role, a project organization must also be laid out (and documented in the Project Charter). The establishment of a project's organization is based on its size and scope; however, it is generally composed by a Steering Committee, a PM, Primary functions (responsible for the delivery of the overall project deliverables) and Supporting functions (service providers to the primary functions). Individually all these functions have their responsibilities in the project, supporting the completion of each milestone and the achievement of overall objectives.
5. No Obeya Room = No visibility + No accountability = Lack of control
Often, project plans are prepared on MS Project and kept electronically for status consultation, updates and alterations. The major problem with that is the lack of visibility and transparency it provides for the project. 'It is impossible to keep the whole team engaged and on board with project progress, changes, issues and actions without an Obeya room' says Martin. The Obeya room, also called war room, is where the level 1 and level 2 plans are displayed and reviewed on a regular basis by the Primary function representatives and the PM. It provides visibility of all activities linked through to the overall project objectives. 'Ideally, anybody in the organization should be able to understand a project status in 30 seconds and within 3 minutes identify the gap, countermeasures in place and when it will be back on schedule' says Martin.
In a Lean Project, the level 1 and level 2 plans are created in the format of a Tactical Implementation Plan (TIP) which are created electronically, but printed once completed and updated manually on a regular basis. 'The manual review process creates ownership and visibility for problems through back-spicks' says David Hurst who has been using these approach for over 20 years, since General
Manager at Toyota, 'The back-spikes show all the deviations from plan and call for action, before they are impossible to recover'.
Regular structured reviews at all levels (at the Obeya Room) establish the necessary control for the project. Frequency is defined according to the project size and priority. Typically, large projects are reviewed weekly between PM and Representatives, monthly between PM and Steering Committee and quarterly between sponsor(s), PM and the Board (for all major projects). 'These frequent reviews create accountability for the execution of project tasks and more pressure on the implementation of corrective actions' says David, 'It avoids "the student syndrome" from happening in the project i.e. leaving actions/progress to the last minute'. These reviews are also used for the clear escalation criteria so relevant issues can be prioritized.
6. Projects' Lessons Learned should go beyond being documented
The PDCA approach is not complete without the "Reflection" step, also called Lessons Learned by many practitioners. In this step the project team should identify and reflect about weaknesses and strengths (Managerial, Systemic and Functional) that have impacted the success of the project. 'The ultimate goal of this process is to capture and formalize the follow up actions required to improve the "best of today's" standards in the project' says Danielle Browne from Lean Coaching. A crucial part of the Reflection is managing the identified changes in a structured way, considering their overall impact to other activities and confirming their outcome through KPI review and Genchi Genbutsu (Go & See approach). 'This process is called Keshikomi and it is used to effectively manage changes with focus on improving project performance rather than deteriorating it' says Danielle, 'Keshikomi is part of the organizations' standard for individual types of projects' she adds.
The Reflection process is frequently undervalued by organizations. Many of them document the lessons learned at the end of projects just as part of the formal standard process and without realizing the opportunities that the activity has to offer. 'When only documented, lessons learned lose their power to aid project efficiency and become just history' says Danielle. 'Without building them back into the project standards, the process has no validity'.
A project's success depends upon the detailed and disciplined execution of several activities before, during and after its completion. These activities must work in harmony to achieve success; the poor realization of one activity, places the whole project at risk of failure. Lean thinking provides the benchmark approach (and structure) for projects, focusing not only on fundamental tools and methods, but also on the necessary behaviours to achieve top performance and success. The PDCA-R approach helps structuring projects through the use of standards, strong problem solving and continuous improvement practices. These fundamentals benefit not only present, but also future projects by continuously improving project activities and overall efficiency, consistently delivering the intended business impact.

Associated Press
SHREVEPORT, La. -- The final pass of Tyler Tettleton's dizzying early-game onslaught was beautiful -- a 68-yard touchdown heave to Chase Cochran over two defenders.
Ohio coach Frank Solich couldn't have designed a better beginning to a football game. And the end result -- a dominant 45-14 victory over Louisiana-Monroe in the Independence Bowl on Friday -- wasn't too bad either.
"It was probably as complete of ballgame as we've played in some time," Solich said. "I think our guys played with great intensity and a great deal of heart. We showed we can play a great game against a really good team like Louisiana-Monroe."
Tettleton's early heroics staked the Bobcats (9-4) to an early 14-0 lead and Louisiana-Monroe was never really able to gain its footing. During the two early touchdown drives, Tettleton completed all five of his passes for 165 yards and two touchdowns.
He finished 14-of-22 passing for 331 yards, two touchdowns and an interception.
"We knew we were going up against a great front seven, so our game plan was to take some shots down field and let our playmakers make plays," Tettleton said.
They certainly did. Cochran caught three passes for 162 yards while Tyler Futrell had five receptions for 133 yards. With Tettleton softening the Louisiana-Monroe defense early, running back Beau Blankenship provided the power offense to seal the game, rushing for 104 yards and an Independence Bowl record four touchdowns.
Tettleton was especially sharp in the first half, completing 9 of 14 passes for 215 yards and two touchdowns as Ohio built a 24-7 lead.
Louisiana-Monroe (8-5) struggled in its first bowl game after 19 seasons in the Football Bowl Subdivision. Kolton Browning completed 21-of-39 passes for 219 yards and two touchdowns, but also threw three first-half interceptions.
Ohio broke several Independence Bowl records, including the 31-point margin of victory and 556 total yards.
Ohio lost four of five games to end the regular season -- including the last three -- but looked crisp in a complete performance against the Warhawks.
Tettleton's 2012 season had been a slight disappointment considering the huge numbers he put up the year before as a sophomore, but his performance against Louisiana-Monroe was a reminder of how good he can be. He averaged more than 23 yards per completion.
Blankenship finished with a school record 1,604 yards rushing yards this season and topped the 100-yard mark for the 10th time. All four of his touchdown runs came from 2 yards out or less.
Louisiana-Monroe came into Friday's game with the better storyline and basically a home-field advantage. The Warhawks were playing in their first bowl game after joining college football's highest level in 1994 and secured a bid in Shreveport, which is only about 100 miles from their campus.
ORLANDO, Fla. -- Cody Journell kicked a 22-yard field goal on the first possession of overtime to help Virginia Tech beat Rutgers 13-10 in the Russell Athletic Bowl on Friday night.
Virginia Tech (7-6) won its third straight game to avoid its first losing season since 1992.
Rutgers (9-4) had a chance to tie it in overtime, but Nick Borgese missed a 42-yard field-goal attempt to the right.
Virginia Tech trailed 10-0 at the half, then rallied in the final 30 minutes thanks to some timely turnovers and offense. Quarterback Logan Thomas struggled in the first and finished with a pair of interceptions, but also had 192 passing yards and the game's only passing touchdown.

Portugal, Spain, Greece and Italy broke European Union law by authorizing vessels to fish in the territorial waters off Gambia and Equatorial Guinea, according to the findings of conservation group Oceana published on Tuesday. Fishing vessels from Europe and Asia are drawn to West Africa, particularly for high-value tuna. Many ships operate legally but West African states are vulnerable to illegal fishing because of corruption and a lack of maritime policing capacity. Using data from their onboard tracking devices, Oceana found that 19 vessels illegally spent over 31,000 hours in Gambia and Equatorial Guinea's exclusive economic zones - waters which extend 200 nautical miles from the coast - from April 2012 to August 2015.

"As such, some preliminary studies are being done; obviously to determine the model that could be used to resuscitate the industry. It is a project that has involvement of other stakeholders such as the Agriculture Marketing Authority and the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe."

Christopher Burton wins the Land Rover Burghley title
It may not have been the most conventional way to win a CCI4*, but such was Christopher Burton's superiority in the first two phases that he still lifted the Land Rover Burghley title despite lowering four fences in the final showjumping phase.
The Australian star had four rails in hand as he cantered into the arena on Sue Lawson and Carolyn Townsend's Nobilis 18, and he needed every single one of them as the 11-year-old clouted fence after heart-stopping fence.
"I thought I'd keep it interesting for everyone by making it as close as possible," joked the ultra-cool 34-year-old, who paused before adding more seriously: "He's basically a careful showjumper and he warmed up well, but in the end he got a bit tired and had a few down."
In taking the title, Christopher became the first Australian rider to win Burghley for more than a decade and also ticked the important personal box of scoring his first four-star win on British soil.
"On Wednesday morning I walked along Winners' Avenue looking at all the plaques with the names of all the old boys on them. I thought then how good it would be to add my name to the line," he said.
One of the biggest cheers of the afternoon was reserved for runner-up Andrew Nicholson, who has bounced back from a serious neck injury to add yet another page to his Burghley biography.
His ride, Nereo, who has been bridesmaid at Burghley twice before, added six penalties to his score – one fence down and two time – to finish on a final tally of 53.2, a little over three marks behind the winners.
"I'm very proud of him. He's getting on a bit and this is one of the few cross-country courses he doesn't really enjoy going around because of the hills," said Andrew. "But he does what he's got to do whether he enjoys it or not – that's the sort of horse he is."
Continuing the Antipodean theme, New Zealander Jonelle Price and the brilliant mare Classic Moet took third spot after benefiting from her husband Tim's misfortune when he lowered three fences and dropped to fourth with Ringwood Sky Boy.
"I feel like I've been digging myself out of a hole all week," smiled Jonelle. "I wasn't happy with my dressage, then I took an unplanned long route at the Dairy Farm, but I've managed to claw my way back and this horse makes my life easy."
Clear showjumping rounds were few and far between – there were only five all day – but France's Cedric Lyard and Cadeau Du Roi reaped the rewards of a penalty-free trip and jumped up to fifth place.
Showjumping course-designer Richard Jeffery explained that he had deliberately not built a lot of the fences to maximum width and had made the optimum time on the lenient side in deference to yesterday's energy-sapping cross-country test.
"The ground was also on the soft side when we built the track last night, so I kept that in mind," he said.
Bettina Hoy (GER) and Designer 10 lowered two rails to drop one place to sixth, while seventh-placed Oliver Townend's clear round on Samuel Thomas II elevated him from 10th to seventh and ensured he finished the best-placed of the British riders.
Caroline Powell (Onwards And Upwards), Mark Todd (NZB Campino) and Tina Cook (Star Witness) completed the top 10.

I've had my iPhone 6 Plus for about a month now. I was a little reluctant to buy it because it was so expensive and my iPhone 5 was still working pretty great. But I'm glad I did it.
The main reason: the screen is so big. I have bad, old man eyes, and having all that extra real estate allows me to do something I always wanted to do with my iPhone 5, but never could. That is, crank the system fonts all the way up to Grandpa Size.

San Jose, CA (PRWEB) August 20, 2013
Appvance Inc., the leader in load and performance testing, today announced new functionality that leverages the CloudBees Jenkins' Continuous Integration solution.
For years Appvance has practiced Agile software development methodology using Continuous Integration (CI). Appvance felt there was something missing about CI platforms: none offered integration from the test environment back to the build environment in a way that was oriented around a results database. Appvance Enterprise 7.0.1 performance platform now integrates with CloudBees Jenkins build service. In this integration the Cloud records a test of a Cloud app, most of the time without scripting. Appvance supports CloudBees Jenkins' easy user interface to do test configuration. And it provides instant reports to surface actionable app performance issues and let engineers take a look at exactly what is going wrong - and how to fix it. In this environment multiple CloudBees builds can be running concurrently. This environment is ideal for a wide variety of apps, including web, Ajax, Mobile, SOAP and REST services, advanced message queue or BPM solutions, and Oracle Forms apps.
"Imagine a Cloud testing another Cloud," said Frank Cohen, CTO and Founder at Appvance. "And, it does this for functional testing, performance testing, and security testing. This is our solution."
A full demonstration of the Appvance and CloudBees solution will be covered in a joint webinar on Wednesday, August 28, 2013 at 10:00a.m. PDT – Register Here.
Appvance is the leader in proof of performance and security-performance for mobile and social media apps for large enterprises. Using Appvance software and services, developers, IT managers and brand executives can be confident their apps will perform and be secure even under the stress of large events and campaigns. Appvance Enterprise with its deep technology roots finds app problems and security holes other platforms don't. Headquartered in San Jose, CA, Appvance is a venture-backed company led by a team of experienced technology executives. Learn more at http://www.appvance.com.

Football: Dutch Fork at Blythewood
Site: Blythewood Stadium. Time: 7:30 p.m.
Blythewood notes: The Bengals bounced back from two straight losses to keep the upper hand in their series vs. Richland 2 district rival Richland Northeast. Blythewood did a major defensive number on the potent Cavaliers in a 12-7 win. The Bengals are 3-0 all-time vs. RNE … The Blythewood defense limited the Cavs to 181 total net yards, an average of just 2.9 yards per play and did not yield an offensive touchdown … The offense managed only 94 yards, but it was enough … The Bengals built a 6-0 lead in the field half on two field goals by Aaron Mayes (32 and 37 yards). Then, after RNE went ahead 7-6 with 9:16 left in the fourth quarter on a 42-yard punt by Kenny Upshaw and a PAT kick by Daniel Passament, Blythewood out together a seven-play, 57-yard scoring drive that ended with an 18-yard scoring run by C.J. Edwards with 2:57 to go … Richard Thomas led the stellar defensive performance with 11 tackles. Tre Minor, Curtis Hill and Torrence Daniel had nine tackles apiece. Hill's haul included three TFL. Justin Anderson chipped in seven tackles, including two TFL … Tevin Lowry had a fumble recovery and a return of 40 yards, and Russell Taylor picked off a RNE pass.
Dutch Fork notes: The Silver Foxes (1-2) were on the receiving end of a pretty good defensive performance by Ridge View in a 22-7 loss last week. DF opened with an 80-yard scoring drive in the first quarter, but never located the end zone again … Tavarris Counts and Justin Suber have been the Foxes' offensive mainstays to date. Counts has 211 yards rushing and three touchdowns on 37 carries and is the top receiver, as well, with 15 catches for 126 yards. Quarterback Suber is 32-for-67 passing for 293 yards and one and has run for 147 yards and two TDs … Junior linebacker Marshall Williams has a team-high 21 tackles, one interception and one sack. Senior linebacker T.J. Cayruth is next with 19 tackles.
Series history: Friday's game is the first-ever football clash of the Bengals and Silver Foxes.

Bobcats owner Michael Jordan did an interview Thursday with Rick Bonnell of the Charlotte Observer that covered a wide range of topics. From the possibility the franchise could make a name change should New Orleans give up the Hornets to comparing the versatility and attitude of rookie Michael Kidd-Gilchrist with Scottie Pippen as a "connector" for the lineup.
Oh, and that players have already gone to Jordan to complain about the lengthy practices of new coach Mike Dunlap.
Maybe it's an ominous beginning for Dunlap as a first-time NBA head coach with more experience dealing with players in the college game. Maybe it is more a very bad sign about the players trying to respond to a 7-59 season and not even being able to make it to opening night before griping about being overworked. Either way, it looks bad in so many ways for the Bobcats.
Dunlap was a surprise hire in June only because the announcement came without his name ever being linked to the job. The perception game turned it into a risk hire by Jordan, but in reality, Dunlap was a well-respected basketball man with a long history on the bench. The Warriors' move for Mark Jackson the season before, among others, was a much bigger gamble, only better disguised by name recognition. (more…)

May 8...a national holiday in France. It commemorates the end of WWII in Europe...Victory in Europe Day...V-E Day. An important day to remember here. In villages all over France the same scenario is played out...
In my village 30 or so people gathered at 11:45 am. Madame Gentou, our mayor, read a speech. In it she spoke of devastation, capitulation, occupation, collaboration and resistance. She spoke of the hardships and the deaths. She reminded people of General De Gaulle and the brave men of the Resistance, of sabotage and finally of liberation.
Two young village girls laid a bouquet of flowers at the foot of the war memorial.
Then Madame Gentou read each name on the memorial, men from our village who died during WWI, WWII, and the Algerian War. After each name, the crowd intoned...'mort pour la France.' At the end of the ceremony as people made their way up to the mairie for a drink, a young man, whom know one seemed to know, knelt in prayer in front of the memorial. It was quite moving. I was reluctant to intrude with either a photo or conversation, but I can't help but wonder...is one of the names his grandfather, an uncle, a cousin? War is very personal here; it's not just something you read about in history books.

To infect its host, the respiratory pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa takes an ordinary protein usually involved in protein synthesis and adds three small molecules to turn it into a key virulence factor according to a study in mBio this week, economically employing one protein in two different ways. Scientists at Emory University School of Medicine, the University of Virginia, and Universidad de las Islas Baleares in Mallorca, Spain, uncover this previously unknown virulence factor in P. aeruginosa, one of the most common causes of hospital-acquired pneumonia.
Environmental pathogen is a scourge in hospitals
P. aeruginosa pneumonia is, of course, a big problem in the hospital setting, where it is a frequent cause of hospital-acquired pneumonia and is the leading cause of death among critically ill patients whose airways have been damaged by ventilation, trauma, or other infections. The pathogen is also a contributor to disease in the lungs of cystic fibrosis patients and forms thick biofilms that are difficult or impossible to treat with antibiotics. Goldberg and her co-author Sebastian Alberti and their colleagues study the molecular events that enable the bacterium to infect human cells in the hopes of finding ways to prevent P. aeruginosa pneumonia.
In their earlier work, Goldberg and Alberti found that P. aeruginosa takes the protein EF-Tu, which was generally thought to exist only inside the cell, and decorates the exterior of the cell with it, but in a modified form. This modified EF-Tu is recognized by antibodies to the common bacterial epitope phosphorylcholine (ChoP), indicating that the EF-Tu is modified somehow to mimic ChoP, allowing P. aeruginosa to enjoy the benefits of ChoP. By interacting with receptors on human cells, ChoP carries out a crucial step for setting up an infection for a number of different types of respiratory pathogens.
But how is EF-Tu modified, they wondered? And does it help P. aeruginosa establish an infection? This study answers those questions.
Small changes add up to a powerful mimic
Using a host of techniques, including mass spectrometry, site directed mutagenesis of key residues in the protein, and genetic loss of function/gain of function studies, they found that P. aeruginosa only makes small changes to EF-Tu to get it to mimic this powerful ligand. P. aeruginosa transfers three methyl groups to a lysine on EF-Tu, giving it a structure similar to ChoP and allowing it to fit in the PAFR receptor in the way ChoP does.
But the modified EF-Tu not only looks like ChoP, it many ways it works like ChoP: testing in cultures of human airway cells shows that the modification of EF-Tu enables the bacterium to adhere to human cells.
"It allows [P. aeruginosa] to adhere to the cells and invade," says Goldberg. "And it seems to be involved in virulence in mouse models. It might also impact persistence in the lung."
As an environmental pathogen, P. aeruginosa lives in soil, water, and other environments outside the body, a fact that may offer a clue why it uses this re-purposed protein as a virulence factor. Proteins that can be put to work in both worlds - in the environment and the in the human host - would be useful to P. aeruginosa in much the way a spork can allow you to enjoy both the coleslaw and the pudding in your take out dinner.
"Its interaction with humans is accidental. It's an opportunist. The fact that it has this novel modification on this protein that is inherent in the bacterium that enables it to attach and persist and cause disease is exciting," says Goldberg.

At school we have been doing rugby and we have tags on a belt, today I wore a red belt and we tagged lots of people. Then we played a game called Bulldog. In this game we had to run from one side of the pitch to the other without being tagged. Although we enjoy rugby its very very cold!

By logging in with facebook you agree
to the terms and conditions.
A bartender's primary job is to serve drinks in pubs, bars and restaurants. Depending on the venue a bartender will have to know simple drinks and/or hundreds of different combinations and cocktails. Once the drinks are made quickly and neatly the bartender will then take payment.
Bartenders must reflect the atmosphere of the establishment he is working in. If it is an extremely smart bar, restaurant or hotel bar, they must be presentable, calm and modest, efficient and dressed usually in black tie. If it is a lively bar they may be expected to interact with the customers. In all cases bartenders must have excellent people skills and an affable demeanour.
Bartenders have made something of a comeback in recent years. They are now in high demand, particularly those with specialist skills. The two in the greatest demand are: Mixologists – bartenders that specialise in an array of cocktails and make them exactly right whilst adding some of their own flavours to increase the sensation. Flairists – bartenders 'juggle' bottles behind a bar for the entertainment of the customer.
Bartenders can supplement their pay from tips, so the more charming they are the greater chance there is that they will be rewarded. Remembering the drinks of individual clients and having them ready for when they return to the bar is a sure fire way to get noticed and appreciated as a bartender.
Maintenance of the bar is almost as important as serving drinks from behind it. Bartenders must keep check on glassware, cleanliness and stocks to ensure they are never unable to serve any drink they advertise as having.

Basically, take two PC's, (say a Dell PE 860 - I got some of these), and then network-RAID the two PC's, and setup them up with HA to offer one single IP to the network. Thus, if either one of them fails, you still have the other one left. If space (i.e. rackspace) is a problem, then 2x1U's won't cost that much, and they can take 2 HDD's each, so you could seup RAID 1 (mirror) on the 2 HDD's as well. If you can afford 2U space, then you can setup a 2950 with 6 drives each, which has more capacity, and the 2 servers clustered will give redundancy. Has anyone done something like this? What was your experience with this? I know SuperMicro has a chassis that can take 2x small factor motherboards, which means you can setup something like this on the same chassis. -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers

CLUSTERS3 project website: www.interregeurope.eu/clusters3
The consortium is formed by 9 partners from 7 European regions:
1. SPRI Society for Competitive Transformation (Business Development Agency of the Basque
Government) ES
2. Tecnalia Research & Innovation Foundation ES
3. Lubelskie Voivodeship PL
4. Piedmont Region IT
5. Ministry of Economics of the Republic of Latvia LV
6. HajdúBihar County Council HU
7. Highlands and Islands Enterprise UK
8. Invest Northern Ireland UK
9. TCI Network ES
The CLUSTERS3 project aims at improving the regional policy instruments of the participating regions committed to cluster based economic development. And more specifically, the performance of cluster organizations in the development of global value chains and in leveraging the regional smart specialization strategies (RIS3) implementation. In order to achieve these goals, the project partners carry out a set of activities divided into two phases:
Phase 1: Interregional learning
The knowledge and experiences sharing process engages the different partners in joint thematic workshops and site visits, where each regional authority partner explains and discusses their own practices and experiences. Other activities connected with this process are: peer review activities, identification and evaluation of best practices, transfer of best practices through B2B sessions, networking events and surveys, among others.
Phase 2: Implementation
In this phase, each regional authority partner plans, develops and implements suitable interventions at regional level to improve the policy instruments addressed. This intervention will be based on all the learned lessons in the previous phase.
As advisory partner, TCI provides experiences and knowledge to the project based on its own expertise developed over the past years and connects the project itself with the wider community of practitioners in Europe and worldwide. TCI's role includes identifying and selecting external experts in the field of cluster policy and smart specialization to provide the specific expertise required in the different parts of the project, such as the peer reviews.

My dirty laundry in public
Way back in mid-May, I think I was attacked by some tomatoes (or something else). Robert and I and a friend went out to lunch at a local restaurant and the three of us got very sick in the next few days. Oh, my dear.
However, the whole ordeal had a bright side. When I was sick it seemed unnecessary to take a medication that I've been taking every day for over five years (a diuretic) for high blood pressure.
I noticed that my left foot felt much better than it had in years. When I was finally well enough to go to the doctor I told him about this phenomenon. I had done some research online and learned about peculiar side effects of diuretics. He immediately put two and two together and said the medication was probably causing gout.
Wow. He told me to stop taking the pills. What a blessing!
That's why I am happy to be doing laundry today. Robert is pleased too. I'll get back to my walking program as soon as the gray skies (from the California wild fires) clear up.

Exhibitors > The Electrical Shop
Stand 65
Here at The Electrical Shop our aim is very simple - to bring well-designed, affordable and fashionable lighting to the masses.
Our design ethos is straightforward too - good quality components, mixed with great materials and a touch of innovative flair (with some electrical know-how thrown in for good measure). As a result, our product range is deliberately small. We have two core products - Cage and Pendant. We then offer variations in both colour and size to provide a range of lights that are both versatile and yet born from the same simple idea.

"At the beginning of October I travelled up to Bangor in Wales to speak at the Readers' Day in the Cathedral there. The theme for the Day was: 'A Rule of Life: Providing focus and freedom' and I had been invited by our Oblate, the Revd Susan Blagden, who is the Training Officer for the Diocese.
I had never been to this part of Wales before and hadn't realised I would be entering a foreign land where Welsh is spoken equally with English!
Bangor is, of course, on the Menai Straits with the Welsh Mountains as a backdrop – so it is a very pretty part of the world. The Cathedral, too, has very ancient foundations – reaching back to the sixth century when St Deiniol become the first Bishop of Bangor.
I found the people very welcoming and the theme of a Rule of Life was appreciated and gave ongoing food for reflection. The Day ended with a Eucharist at which the Bishop presided and preached and at which Lay Readers were both newly commissioned and re-commissioned. It felt a very good Day and I was very pleased to be a part of it".

Food is a basic human need. Join a growing movement of conscious consumers who want to know where their food is coming from and to make sure that growing practices are safe and that food is of the highest quality. Join the MCFC CSA and know where your food comes from, who grows it and get it fresh picked!
A CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) is a way for the consumer to create a relationship with a farm. In the spring, the farmer sells shares in their farm's upcoming harvest to consumers, who become "members" of the CSA. The share price goes toward the cost of growing and distributing a season's worth of produce and paying the farmer a living wage. At regular intervals from June through November, the CSA farmer delivers produce to a central location for the members to pick up.

The Mouse Cottage Crafts is my daughters new blog. We have been discussing this for some time and today seeing as it is the Easter Holidays I thought that perhaps we would in fact have the time to do it properly and educate her in the safe and correct use of a blog and Internet.
She (Mousey) has several post lined up and seeing as she starts secondary school in September and ipads will be in use I have decided that now might be a good time to put some computer understanding into motion. I have set up some controls and I have access to her blog so we shall see how it goes.
Please do visit and give her a boost especially if you are a regular reader here as it was looking at my blog that triggered this interest.
Many thanks and take care.

Waxing and Hair Removal
Professional waxing services, which removes the hair from the root, are a great way to remove unwanted hair growth on any part of your body. New hair will not grow back in the previously waxed area for four to six weeks, although some people may see some regrowth in only a week due to some of their hair being on a different growth cycle.
Almost any area of the body can be waxed, including eyebrows, face, pubic area (called bikini waxing), legs, arms, back, abdomen and feet. Waxing services will leave your skin smooth and supple for weeks or longer depending on the body part, and the hair will generally grow back lighter and softer than if you were to shave.
There are many benefits to waxing versus other forms of hair removal. It is an effective method to remove large amounts of hair at one time. Areas that are repeatedly waxed over long periods of time often exhibit hair regrowth that is softer.
The results of Proper Waxing by a professional are far better than using hair removal creams or do-it-yourself waxing products. Our licensed estheticians will provide safe, professional results in a private setting.

Postal Inspection Service spokesman Michael Martinez-Partida told the San Antonio Express-News that he would "absolutely not" answer questions Tuesday, then hung up on a reporter. Numerous follow-up calls and a text to his cell phone went unanswered.
DPS Lt. Jason Reyes said his agency had been assisting postal inspectors and San Antonio police with the investigation. He referred media questions to those agencies. Similarly, a San Antonio Police Department spokeswoman said her agency had been assisting federal agents and deflected questions to them.
