KALAMAZOO, Mich. – Making her second career appearance at the NCAA Division III Tennis Championships, junior Lauren Quisenberry (Corpus Christi, Texas) picked up her first-ever victory in the Individual Championships with an opening round win this morning at Kalamazoo College. Advancing to the Round of 16, she was then ousted from the tournament in a hard fought, three-set match. Quisenberry is the third MIT women's tennis player to win a match at the NCAA Individual Championships.
Quisenberry had a tough draw in her first match as she had to face the No. 4 seed in the tournament in Megan Tang of the University of Chicago. She wasted little time in pulling off the upset, however, knocking Tang out of the tournament with a 6-2, 6-1 victory.
Moving on to the Round of 16, Quisenberry came up against Beatrice Rosen of Emory University. Quisenberry came up big in the first set, taking a 6-0 win. Things tightened up considerably in the second set, however, and Rosen evened things out with a tight, 7-6, decision to send the match to a third set. There Quisenberry was only able to get one game off Rosen, as she fell 6-1 to end her season.
It was just the fourth loss of the season for Quisenberry, who finishes the 2012-13 season with a 19-4 record in singles play. She joins Mealani Nakamura '00 and Lesley Hansen '10 as the MIT women's tennis players who have won matches at the NCAA Individual Championships.

It might be that this forum is biased towards the Greek orthodox Church, who despite their official Church position (Ecumenical Patriarchate), still "hate" us like heretics. They are welcome though as a minority Church in Egypt (300,000 vs. >15 million Copts worldwide, incl. >9 millions inside Egypt). The Coptic Church Network of Sites Online (incl. St Takla) have one common goal, to serve our Lord, and one Pope, Abba Shenouda III. God Bless.
- 1. Who owns the copyright? When did they give permission? Do you own the St. Takla website? This really needs to be explicit, because OrthodoxWiki cannot risk violating copyright law.
- 2. OrthodoxWiki is explicitly biased in favor of the Chalcedonian Orthodox (see: OrthodoxWiki:Style Manual#Neutrality_and_the_OrthodoxWiki_Bias), but that has nothing to do with attempting to determine the copyright status of a given article.
- 3. Material about Coptic Orthodoxy is welcome on OrthodoxWiki so long as contributors are willing to abide by the standards in the official Style Manual. I myself am "Greek Orthodox" and do not hate Copts as heretics. I've visited Coptic services on a few occasions and always had a positive experience.

It doesn't belong to St Takla's Church site (which is also a Coptic Orthodox Church in the city of Alexandria under our Pope's full rule). Our Coptic Church releases and updates English/Arabic/French/German biographies of our Pope like this one on different occasions (e.g., HH Silver Jubilee in 1996) and these are free to use/distribute, and already in use, abridged or in full, in many sites, not just the site of St Takla Haymanot's Coptic Orthodox Church in Alexandria, Egypt, e.g.,: http://icopts.com/new_site/content/view/70/230/ http://icopts.com/new_site/content/view/71/230/
I also wanted to add (under Ecumenical Relations): Report About Relations With the Russian Orthodox Church
P.S. Coptic literally means Egyptian/of Egypt.

If you know some of the 5 best sex moves, you are on your way to being a good lover. There are a few things you can do in bed that are guaranteed to please your partner, and mastering them is important. Do these and you'll keep your partner coming back from her…and get her trying to please you in return.
- Perfect oral. Perhaps the best of the best sex moves is as simple as giving really great head. Get in between your partners legs with your face and let your tongue go to work. Use your lips and tongue to slowly and consistently build a strong orgasm in your partner. It's the perfect way to start—or end—any sexual experience.
- Bend her over. Many women act demure and ladylike on the surface but deep down want to be treated dirty in bed. Mounting your girlfriend doggystyle is one of the 5 best sex moves because it is a kinky position that gives you a nice view and lets her feel sexy and naughty. It gives you a good penetration angle and the ability to grab her hips and pound away.
- Her legs on your shoulders. This position, one of the 5 best sex moves, is a take off on the missionary position. Grab her legs and push them far back, resting her calves on your shoulders, then go to work. This move gives you an extremely deep penetration and allows you to ride her hard, while all she has to do is lie there and take it.
- Against the wall. This is one of the 5 best sex moves because it is a unique way to have sex. While deep in passionate kissing but before the bed, let her know you're ready right now by hoisting her up and entering her. She'll think this move is really hot, having seen it in the movies, and will allow you two to grind away in a very spontaneous manner.
- 69. Flipping your girlfriend around into this position is one of the 5 best sex moves. Everyone loves getting oral sex, and this move allows you both to enjoy receiving it at the same time. It is intimate, kinky, and naughty all at once. Make a game of it and see who can get the other one off first.

SEATTLE — Washington state's governor is allowed to claim "executive privilege" as a reason to withhold documents from the public even though that exemption isn't among the hundreds listed in state law, the state Supreme Court ruled Thursday.
In an 8-1 decision, justices said the governor's office has an inherent privilege as a result of the constitutional separation of powers.
"The executive communications privilege plays a critical part in preserving the integrity of the executive branch," wrote Justice Mary Fairhurst in the majority opinion. "Courts have widely recognized that the chief executive must have access to candid advice in order to explore policy alternatives and reach appropriate decisions."
Justices did provide some qualifications in their decision, saying the privilege only applies to communications made to inform policy choices, although it is largely left up to the governor's office to privately interpret what documents would fall into that category. The court also said a person requesting public records can argue that the need for the material outweighs the public interests served by protecting the communication.
"The privilege does not exist to shroud all conversations involving the governor in secrecy and place them beyond the reach of public scrutiny," Fairhurst wrote.
In the only dissenting opinion, Justice James Johnson said the majority ruling essentially amended the state constitution and a voter-approved initiative that established public disclosure law decades ago.
"The majority ignores our state's constitution, statutes, and populist tradition and does great damage to over 120 years of open government in Washington," Johnson wrote. "It is not alarmist to say that this decision could place a shroud of secrecy over much government conduct, unless changed by a wiser court, electorate, or legislature."
State law has long emphasized the value of disclosure and says the laws should be liberally construed to favor transparency.
"The people, in delegating authority, do not give their public servants the right to decide what is good for the people to know and what is not good for them to know," state law says. "The people insist on remaining informed so that they may maintain control over the instruments that they have created."
Johnson said he agreed that the governor must have access to candid advice but notes that state law already has hundreds of protections, including exemptions for things like preliminary drafts, notes and recommendations in which opinions are expressed or policies are formulated.
Johnson also disputed that the governor's office would need as much secrecy as the president of the United States, which deals with issues such as war and national security. And he said concerned citizens will now have to bring difficult and expensive lawsuits in order to get a closer look at the state government.
"This ruling likely will not destroy our democracy, but it will affect its legitimacy in the eyes of the citizens of this state which is a start in that direction," Johnson wrote.
Current Gov. Jay Inslee has said he does not intend to exercise the executive privilege exemption unless it was explicitly provided by the Legislature or a vote of the people.

Actual rating will vary with options, driving conditions, habits and vehicle condition.

The S-Class sedan ride is impeccable, while the brakes get the heavy car stopped true and without drama. It's not athletic. It is too big and heavy to handle like a sports sedan. The steering lacks feedback.
Air suspension with adaptive dampers is standard, while the available Magic Ride Control uses hydraulic springs. Its glassy ride comes via a camera that views the road ahead and sets the suspension for the upcoming surface. In Comfort mode, it truly feels magic.
The new S 560's twin-turbo V8 is 4.0 liters, smaller than the previous S 550 with 4.7 liters, but it makes 14 more horsepower. Its 463 hp is as much as anyone needs.
The AMG S 65 with a V12 making 621 horsepower is rear-wheel drive. Don't let the horsepower fool you; it's not as quick as the AMG S 63 V8. The V12 has other virtues. And it's mated to a seven-speed automatic, not a nine-speed. The Maybach S 650 V12 makes less horsepower.
Few of those 6500 changes are to the exterior. There's a new grille and bumpers, and new LED headlamps that project a wide display and provide autonomous functioning. The AMG models have a low wing-like front fascia with big air intakes, and a rear diffuser with four exhaust tips.
The cabin reeks of splendor. It boasts beautiful craftsmanship that's impressive to the eye, with fit and finish that few cars can equal.
For 2018, the two 12.3-inch screens, one for gauges and one for infotainment, are combined into one big screen, with higher resolution. A new system called Energizing Comfort can be set for five separate 10-minute programs to soothe the driver. The programs combine climate control, seat heating or cooling, seat massage, music, ambient lighting, and fragrance diffusion. Sounds perfect for a relaxing nap behind the wheel, while autonomous driving takes you to your destination.
The horizontal dash has two tiers and is glamorous in quilted leather with silver trim. The materials have high contrast, and there are a lot of shiny accents over the basic wood or leather trim, with carbon-fiber accents on the AMG models.
The front seats are superb, somewhere between supportive and plush, with big cushions and a lot of adjustment, although the ergonomics are occasionally fiddly. The rear seats are also wide and comfortable, at least the outside seats.
The COMAND connectivity system is upgraded for 2018. It comes with five years of service and includes Facebook, Pandora, voice-to-text email and text messages, a mobile app, non-streaming apps, web services, roadside connection, and diagnostics data.
The Mercedes-Benz S-Class is truly the ultimate sedan. Powerful, luxurious, taut ride and handling, built like a tank. The S 560 with the 463-hp V8 seems the appropriate model to us.
Sam Moses contributed to this report, with staff reports.
The Mercedes-Benz S-Class ranges from the S 450 ($89,900) with rear-wheel-drive and V6 to the AMG S 65 V12 ($229,500), the Master of the Universe model. In between are the S 560 V8 ($99,900), and the AMG S 63 ($147,500). The 4MATIC all-wheel drive system is available.
Optional equipment includes things like a 24-speaker surround sound system, warm-stone massaging seats, perfume scents released into the cabin, entertainment and fridge in the rear, and two executive rear seating packages that include airline-like tables and a right-side footrest.
The Maybach models go off into Rolls-Royce territory, with the technology and features wrapped into a limo-like body that's eight inches longer. The S 560 Maybach 4MATIC is $168,600, while the S 650 Maybach V12 with rear-wheel drive is $198,700.

Schools across Japan may switch to Linux
Japan's public broadcaster NHK reported late last week that the Japanese Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry plans to introduce the open-source operating system Linux for use within classrooms across the country in the near future. According to an investigation conducted in the spring of last year, there are currently over 400,000 computers at schools in Japan running on either Windows 98 or Windows Me, systems no longer supported by the software manufacturer Microsoft. The prohibitive cost of replacing these machines with newer models, as well as the rising price of proprietary software, prompted school teachers and administrators to propose the possibility of switching to open-source software as an affordable alternative. A conference held in Tokyo on March 2-3, attended by around 2000 government officials, teachers and education board members from across the country, considered the idea of reclaiming these older computers by switching from unsupported and out-of-date versions of Windows to the operating-system Linux, which can be freely downloaded from the Internet. A teacher from a high-school in Fukuoka Prefecture explained: "Having to always install the latest software is costly, and it makes things very difficult for us. From now on, I want to actively move toward the use of free open-source software"

TEMPE, Ariz. -- Pac-12 Commissioner Larry Scott says DirecTV officials "have dug in their heels" and he sees no reason for optimism that the satellite provider will add the new Pac-12 networks to their service.
Scott, speaking at halftime of the Arizona State-Oregon football game Thursday night, says it is frustrating that DirecTV is not accepting the same terms everyone else has.
At least, Scott says, fans have two other options, the Dish Network Corp. satellite provider or a major cable service. Scott accuses DirecTV of not listening to its customers.
He says fans will miss the upcoming heart of the conference football season, then the basketball games that follow.
DirecTV has said it wants to add the Pac-12 networks but at an affordable price.

Here you can - activate JW Player, - upload a logo, login logo, favicon and a gravatar, - add custom CSS, a 404 error message and a google analytics code, - show/hide author info, tags, the Past Tour Dates section, the Login section and - choose to display the SoundCloud and JW Player right on the Audio page instead of in a lightbox.

SLIDER - Set up your slider.
SOCIAL - Enter your info for your social network accounts to display them in the footer.
CONTACT - Enter the settings for your Contact Form.
JW player (for self-hosted video and audio files) can still be included in the theme but I do not offer support for JW player anymore.

I've used the following scripts, files, images, icons and other files in this theme:
After uploading this update, select your JW Player version in the Theme Options Panel. Troubleshooting tips for JW Player 6 you can find here
There is a very easy fix for this issue: Simply go to Settings > Permalinks and click Save Changes.
a) The background image does not get displayed but changing color and fonts works just fine: Solution: Make sure no background color is selected, as it would have priority over the background image settings and no image would get displayed
b) Neither uploading a background image nor changing color and fonts works: Solution 1: Make sure you are not uploading the whole zip file that you've downloaded from Themeforest (including dummy content, license, psd files, readme ...) but only the soundboard.zip file. Solution 2: Check the file permission on your WordPress installation. Files should always have 644 permisison. Folders should always have 755 permission. More info here.
The Slider will only display on the page that is using the "Home" template. Please make sure you are following all the instructions in the documentation under "Setting up the Homepage" (especially step 6!)

This event occurred in the past
Institute for Law and Religion Conference
This event occurred in the past
Date and Time
Friday, February 28, 2014 — Saturday, March 1, 2014
Warren Hall
Is Religion Outdated (as a Constitutional Category)?
The First Amendment would appear to single out "religion" (along with speech, press, and association) for special constitutional treatment. This designation is reflected in constitutional doctrine and decisions: religion has often been treated as distinctive in ways that may be sometimes burdensome to or restrictive of religion (under the Establishment Clause) and sometimes beneficial to or protective of it (under the free exercise clause).
Increasingly, however, scholars question this special treatment—or at least the special treatment that is beneficial to religion. So long as religious individuals and institutions enjoy the same freedoms of speech, association, due process, etc. that other individuals and institutions receive, why is there any need to single out "religion" for special protection? Such protection may be viewed as a sort of "special interest" constitutionalism. A similar stance was discernible in the Obama Administration's position in the recent "ministerial exception" case.
This conference will focus on this issue. Is the Constitution's apparent commitment to special treatment for religion merely a reflection of historical contingencies of the early Republic, or can good justifications be given for continuing to treat religion as a distinctive constitutional concern? If the commitment to special protection for religion is discarded, should the special constraints on governmental aid to religion, or on governmental expressions or endorsements of religion, be relinquished as well? In short, should religion continue to be regarded as a special constitutional category?

HARRISBURG, Pa., July 15 (Reuters) - The latest legal
challenge to Pennsylvania's controversial voter identification
law opened in court on Monday, where opponents argued it will
rob thousands of their right to vote.
The law requiring Pennsylvania residents to present photo
identification in order to vote is being challenged in a lawsuit
filed by the American Civil Liberties Union and residents who
say the law disenfranchises voters.
The law was signed by Republican Governor Tom Corbett in
March 2012, and the lawsuit was filed two months later.
In August 2012, a Commonwealth Court judge opted not to
issue an injunction that would have stopped the law from taking
However, the state Supreme Court ruled the law had to go
back to Commonwealth Court for reconsideration, and Judge
Bernard Bigley has set aside 10 days for testimony on whether it
should be upheld.
A ruling is expected in August.
The hearing comes just weeks after the U.S. Supreme Court
struck down an Arizona law that required people registering to
vote in federal elections to show proof of citizenship, a
victory for activists who said it discouraged Native Americans
and Latinos from voting.
Under the Pennsylvania law, accepted IDs include drivers
licenses and state-issued voter ID cards.
ACLU attorney Michael Rubin said in his opening statement on
Monday that the ID requirements place an undue burden on voters.
While there are some 9,300 polling places, there are just 71
Department of Transportation centers that issue licenses, he
"This is a law that on its base can only have one result,"
he said, "and that is thousands of voters losing their right to
Many Democrats have argued the law discriminates against
minorities, while many Republicans said the law would prevent
voter fraud.
A partial preliminary injunction issued in October, and
extended in February, allowed those who did not have acceptable
identification to vote in the November 2012 election and this
year's primary election.

SUBJECT: Overview of the following books by Harun Yahya
When the first book by Harun Yahya was published in the UK, it was read avidly by a wide readership, who excitedly anticipated the release of the subsequent books published by Taha Publishers.
Their popularity is surely due to the fact that within the framework of Islam they address many subjects: archaeology, biology, chemistry, natural history, paleontology and sociology are but a few. They are refreshing to read, in that the author has cleverly managed to escape the narrow confines of modern religious expression. In other words, the books reflect the fact that Islam does in fact talk about all subjects, both "worldly" and "spiritual".
In the past, the Muslim World flourished on account of this understanding, and made great leaps in the fields of scientific discovery, medicine, astronomy, engineering, etc. They were spurred on by religious conviction and the commandment to seek knowledge.
Harun Yahya has succeeded in putting the love of the Creator and an appreciation of the created world back into the sciences, as the starting point for any field of endeavor. As such, his books help to inject new energy into the pursuit of knowledge, to carry forward all branches of learning into the 21st century.
This is not only a source of pride, but equally a source of encouragement to the younger generation.
I can honestly say that I have found in these books nothing inflammatory or opposed to the common good. However, to claim that they are perfect would be a foolish assertion. The only book in the history of the world that contains no errors is the Qur"an itself. As for the books by Harun Yahya, what is clearly manifest is the author"s intention, which is simply to highlight the wisdom and advice of the Qur"an and draw attention to certain undisputed facts, such as the existence of Allah, the transitory nature of creation, life and death, the secrets of the past and mechanisms of nature.

As many of you know, BioTrust Nutrition is dedicated to working with top-rated charities throughout the year to positively impact the lives of millions of underprivileged and less fortunate folks around the globe.
'Tis the season for giving, and each year Toys for Tots, an incredibly well-known charitable foundation run by the United States Marine Corps Reserves, delivers "through a new toy at Christmas, a message of hope to less fortunate youngsters that will assist them in becoming responsible, productive, patriotic citizens."
Recently, Team BioTrust partnered up with BioTrust Fitness Advisory Board member Craig Ballantyne and friends for Craig's annual Toys for Tots Toy Drive in Denver, Colorado. The goal is simple: to collect new, unwrapped toys, which will be distributed as Christmas gifts to less fortunate children in the community.
Many of our Denver-based team members and executives were at the event, shopping at the local Walmart, and filling their carts to the brim over and over again to give these children the hope they deserve this holiday season. Just check out the huge truck we were able to fill with your help!
In all, BioTrust was able to donate the funds to purchase 1,000 toys for underprivileged children this holiday season. Along with Craig and his team, a total of over 5,000 gifts were donated to the cause. Together, we exceeded the goal of $100,000, which more than doubled the $50,000 raised last year.
Here's a photo of BioTrust Fitness Advisory Board members, Craig Ballantyne and Bedros Keuilian, standing in front of that monstrous truck full of thousands of toys!
This was an absolutely thrilling and fulfilling event, and we say thank YOU for all your support of BioTrust and our premium, all-natural brand of quality nutrition products. It's because of great customers like you that we are able to give back and make such a vital impact on the world...together!
With Compassion,

He's the first one to read my column each week as my proofreader. It's really difficult to get a reaction out of him since he's already experienced everything I write about.
Many of our daily discussions happen while I'm cooking dinner. I was picking his brain for a column topic this week. Sometimes it's hard to think about what I'm going to write about, especially if I can't remember what I did yesterday. Claiming he could write a series of columns on having to deal with me, I immediately wanted to know what he meant by that comment. Taking that as his cue to leave the kitchen, he just smiled and said, "think about it and get back to me."
What are you saying, I asked him for the third time, do you mean I'm easy to deal with or would these columns of yours be a sob story. Finally he stopped moving and pointed to the front of my shirt where three slices of cucumber skin were now residing. "Now you have your answer," he said.
I certainly can't argue his point as he does have to deal with some oddities I seem to have. Besides being extremely accident prone, the weird but true cloud follows me around. I can't say all of these things happen with no fault of my own, since the cucumber skin did land on my shirt because I was peeling one. What one could consider weird is I was clueless they were there the entire time I was trying to understand his remark of "having to deal with me."
From breaking nearly all of the larger appliances at one time or another to causing the first and only dent in his 10-year-old pickup truck, if there's a will, there's a way, when it comes to my capability for destroying something. It's never intentional, it just happens.
After having successfully managed not to keep the new iPhone intact, it was decided a new work cell phone would be purchased. I always feel bad we have to pay the extra money for insurance coverage on these phones, but in the past it's turned out to be a good thing they were covered. Even with the hard plastic casings he puts on them for me, it's amazing how much damage can be done to these cell phones with just a few accidental drops.
He's much more technical savvy than I am, although I try to always act like I know what I'm doing which usually backfires after I push too many or the wrong buttons at one time. Asking if I wanted to read the manual or watch the online tutorial, I laughed as I grabbed the phone at stuck it in my pocket.
The phone rang and since I didn't know how to answer it, I began my usual fluster of frustration, hitting every button I could find. Somehow I changed the setting for language from English to Japanese. Even if I knew how to change it back I couldn't because I couldn't read anything on the screen.
For the next hour he tried to decipher Japanese and when he started looking like he couldn't deal with it I suggested he read the manual. He simply just gave me back the phone and said deal with it.

Our approach to web design is different to that of our competitors, we are a full service marketing agency primarily focused on creating sales enquiries and opportunities for your business – the marketing strategy comes first and then the website is created or edited to complement this by capturing as many good quality enquiries as possible.
This is key to all of our marketing solutions, but particularly the website which is arguably the most important marketing tool you have, it is also unfortunately one of the easiest to get wrong – a beautiful looking website isn't neccessarily going to make the phone ring!
However, a beautiful website with well presented content and clear, strategically placed calls to action probably will. Our bespoke websites are designed with this ingrained and because we don't use Wordpress, Joomla, Drupal etc (unless you really insist) which are based on pre-made, bloated templates, we can ensure that your website is as simple and flexible as possible.

Please complete the information and select the required options to calculate your price – all websites include a content management system as standard
The use of mobile phones and tablets to visit websites is rapidly becoming the norm, many of our customer's Google Analytics statistics are reporting around 50% of all traffic being via a mobile device. Mobile devices are often constrained by display size and ideally require a different screen layout to avoid a lot of 'pinching and zooming'.
Our modern approach of using CSS ensures that your website will respond to fit whatever browser it is viewed on, whether it be today on an iPhone or in the future on a device that hasn't been launched yet. As all of our designs are bespoke, from the very start of the project we consider how your site will look and work on a mobile, particularly the all-important calls to action.
As regular mobile web users ourselves, we have grown to hate it when a mobile website contains a stripped-down version of the information – just because the screen is smaller doesn't mean I want less information! Wherever possible, we display all of the content by using simple and easy-to-follow navigation and always provide a link to the desktop version to allow each individual user to view the site as they choose to.
As a business owner, you understand the importance of getting your website listed 'organically' on the first page of Google when your relevant keywords are searched. After all, most web surfers do not look beyond this first page when looking for information, products, or services. So, if you aren't on that first page, you aren't likely to bring in much new business.
The term 'Search Engine Optimisation' is, to be honest, an over-used and out-dated term which suggests there is some magic way of getting to the top of Google – there used to be, but in reality nowadays there isn't. We would be delighted to share our thoughts on this further and have a page dedicated to this subject, please click on the link below
Our simple content management system makes it very easy for anyone to update their own website at their convenience, this is key to ensuring that the content remains up-to-date and relevant. It works in your favourite browser (even on your phone, of course) and doesn't require any specialist software or a web designer!
It is a modular system meaning that applications such as (but not limited to) blogs, customer reviews, events calendars, e-commerce functionality and members areas can be quickly and easily added to enrich the user's experience – and in turn increase your Google rankings and enquiry rates!
On the subject of enquiries, our web forms constructively ensure that customers provide all the relevant information you need to be able to respond to them quickly and efficiently – this is a must to ensure good conversion rates. A copy of all enquiries is also available to view or download in the website admin – to help with auditing, producing email marketing lists and so on.
Our geographic tracking numbers can also quickly identify where your telephone enquiries originated too, we can change the phone number the customer sees when they are responding to a particular marketing campaign in a particular town – importantly without costing you or the customer a fortune in call charges.
When we opened a new office in Mansfield, CNS Media built the website and also worked on all our marketing, leading to a very successful opening. Even now, six months down the line the marketing is still working. These guys can deal with everything from a website to the full marketing package, I never feel that a job is too big or small. I have no fear in recommending CNS Media to anyone

After Frank wins, they see a man in a black suit. The don't recognize him, but he looks suspicious. Frank and Joe stay for a little longer to see the older session of the big games, and it is a scary competition. There are so many loops and spins. Everyone knows that at least one person will fill. As expected, the man in the black suit falls.
Frank goes over to the guy and it turns out the man in the black suit is his neighbor. They head on home together after their amazing adventure.
I wouldn't change anything in the story. My favorite part is when he gets his dirt bkike because it makes you feel like you are really there. Frank is my favorite character because he is very brave and does insanely brave tricks. My least favorite character is Joe becasue he acts very weird in the story.
This story relates to my life because I also ride bikes and I like to do crazy stunts. There aren't any pictures, but I know what they are doing because I'm familiar with the tricks. I think others should read this book because it is very interesting, especially if you like to ride bikes.

Christmas log
The bizarre Catalonian tradition of caga tió (or "defecating log" in English) involves creating a character out of a small log - often complete with a grinning face and hat – which sits on the dining room table during the fortnight leading up to Christmas. It has to be fed every day with fruit, nuts and sweets, and then – on Christmas Eve – the entire family beats the log with sticks, while singing traditional songs, forcing the log to excrete its treats. You couldn't make it up.Picture: ALAMY

Freshman Midfielder Adds Five Draw Controls
PHILADELPHIA – The Yale women's lacrosse team had the edge on Penn in draw controls and ground balls, and the two teams were even in shots on a cold and snowy Saturday afternoon at Franklin Field. The Bulldogs also got six goals from freshman midfielder Nicole Daniggelis, who had five of the team's draw controls. But none of those positive numbers added up to victory. The Bulldogs were hurt by another statistic -- 14 turnovers -- and Penn came away with a 12-8 win.
"The statistic that stands out is the turnovers," said Anne Phillips, Yale's Joel E. Smilow, Class of 1954 Head Coach of Women's Lacrosse. "Those were the possessions we couldn't afford to give up. That was the difference in the game."
This was the most goals Yale (4-3, 0-2 Ivy League) has scored against Penn (2-3, 2-0 Ivy League) since scoring eight in 2006. But a slow start proved costly, as it took more than 11 minutes for the Bulldogs to get their first goal. But then Penn had scored three times, all following Yale turnovers.
Daniggelis started her scoring spree with an unassisted goal at 18:28 of the first, passing a stick check right afterwards to keep the goal intact. Two minutes later, she lost the ball in the eight-meter fan while driving but was fouled as she picked it back up. That gave her a free position shot, which she bounced in low inside the far post.
A yellow card then took Daniggelis off the field, but a Penn turnover enabled the Bulldogs to spend most of that time killing the clock.
Junior goalie Erin McMullan came up with one of her best saves of the day to deny a sidearm shot by attacker Caroline Bunting with 11 minutes left in the half, and junior defender Katherine Sherrill hustled to earn the ball back for the Bulldogs. That possession led to another Daniggelis goal, as she took a feed from senior attacker Devon Rhodes right in front to tie the game 3-3.
McMullan made a couple more nice saves in the half, punching away a shot by midfielder Shannon Mangini off a curl and then stopping a free position shot by midfielder Iris Williamson. But Mangini scored with 4:21 left in the half to put Penn up 4-3.
The Bulldogs had turned the ball over 11 times in the first half, negating their chances to build a lead of their own. That proved even more costly when the Quakers scored the first four goals of the second half, taking an 8-3 lead with 18:03 to play.
"We went cold shooting for some stretches, and that gave Penn an opportunity to get the lead and then build on it," said Phillips. "We battled back, though."
After junior defender Ashley McCormick won the draw control, the Bulldogs answered Penn's eighth goal with a goal by sophomore midfielder Cathryn Avallone. After Penn midfielder Iris Williamson scored on a free position, Daniggelis scored the next two goals of the game. One came off a feed from junior attacker Jen DeVito, and another came when she slung a low shot past Penn keeper Lucy Ferguson at the 9:39 mark.
Penn called time, but the Bulldogs momentarily maintained momentum by winning the draw. But after another Yale turnover, a goal by attacker Meredith Cain extended Penn's lead to 10-6.
Daniggelis scored her sixth with a sidearm bounce shot that pulled Yale within three with 5:30 to play. This was the second time this season a Yale player has scored six goals in a game; Rhodes did so in the win at Quinnipiac Feb. 27. Rhodes was also the last freshman to score that many goals in a game, scoring eight in a win over Harvard in 2010.
"Nicole had an unbelievable game," said Phillips. "Not just the goals, but also the draw controls. She's just a fighter. She fought the whole game."
Two minutes later, Rhodes drew a double team and passed to sophomore midfielder Erin Magnuson, who took one fake and then shot low to make the score 10-8 with 3:19 left. That prompted another Penn timeout.
Sherrill then chased down the ensuing draw control deep in Yale territory. But any chance the Bulldogs had of creeping closer was negated by a turnover, which enabled Penn to take some more time off the clock before Cain scored to make it 11-8 with 2:17 to play. The Quakers then spent most of the final two minutes stalling after winning the draw control, with Williamson scoring her fourth goal of the game to make the final 12-8. McMullan finished with seven saves.
Pushing the Quakers -- who have won or shared six straight Ivy League championships -- up until the final minutes gives Yale reason for optimism as the season nears the halfway mark and five league games remain.
"So many parts of the game are there for us," said Phillips. "I couldn't be any more proud of our effort."
Yale visits Harvard for another Ivy League game next Saturday.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – On Tuesday the Flying Tigers and Tigerbelles claimed the highest point totals at the Music City Challenge.
The meet was held at nearby Vanderbilt University as a kick-off event for the local universities' winter track and field seasons.
TSU won both meets with the men totaling 96 points to knock off Belmont and the women scored 86 points to beat Belmont and Vanderbilt.
For the men, junior Travon Alexander shined winning both the 60 and 200 meters with times of 6.94 and 22.00 seconds. Alexander was joined by freshman Perry Stokes, sophomore Quamel Prince and junior Tamoron Key. Stokes took home the 300 meter title with a time of 35.12, Prince ran a 35.12 in the 300 meters to take the top spot and Key rounded out the first place effort winning the pole vault clearing a height of 4.10 meters.
On the women's side the Tigerbelles had three performers take the top spot. Freshman Amber Hughes kicked off her colligate career taking the 60 meter hurdles with a time of 8.55. After a stellar freshman campaign Clairwin Dameus returned to form with a stellar 5.74 meter long jump to take the long jump title. Junior JaLyn Burr took home the top spot in the triple jump with a jump of 12.03 meters.
Saturday the Tigers and Tigerbelles head to Murfreesboro, Tenn. for the Christmas Invitational hosted by Middle Tennessee State University.

TUCSON, AZ -- The University of Arizona (UA) will begin adding solar photovoltaic panels and solar water heaters to rooftops of its student rec center, aquatics center, parking garage and two other university buildings beginning in May.
The solar units are expected to add 500 kilowatts of power that the school says it will use to heat its two large swimming pools.
APS Energy Services will own, operate and maintain the solar-generating equipment on campus and UA will purchase the energy produced, school officials said. The center's expansion also will give UA its first Silver LEED-certified building.
Installation is expected to begin in early summer and be completed before the winter holiday break. School officials said the project is the first step toward a larger solar program at UA.
By converting 500 kilowatts of power to solar-generated sources, UA expects to shrink its carbon footprint by approximately 2,209 metric tons of CO2, which is roughly equivalent to the annual greenhouse gas emissions from 405 passenger vehicles.

Everton goalkeeper Tim Howard believes, if they continue their good form, the Toffees could be playing in the UEFA Champions League next season.
The American keeper has is yet to miss a game in the Premier League for Everton this season, and feels that his team, known for being slow starters, can replicate their normal end-of-season form.
The former Manchester United number one told Sky Sports: "It is going to be a matter of whether we can put two halves together.
"That is what everyone is wondering and it is our job to keep it up and keep our levels high."
Howard joined Everton on a season long loan in the summer of 2006, before making the move permanent, going on to make nearly 300 appearances for the Goodison Park outfit.
Despite manager David Moyes saying that the draw against Southampton was a missed opportunity, Howard feels that as long as they keep grabbing points, then they will continue to push for a top-four spot.
The USA international added: "I always think if we can keep picking up points here and there, it is better than a loss."
The Merseyside club are currently in fifth place, having beaten Manchester United and Tottenham in process, whilst losing only three games in the whole campaign so far.
Howard said: "We are three points off Spurs, Liverpool are four points behind us, so if everyone does their job, it is going to be basically who wins the head-to-head battles."

Shots were fired just after 1 a.m. inside MyStudio nightclub (map), located between Highland Avenue and Cahuenga Boulevard. Witnesses described hearing several gunshots before patrons took cover.
"We heard the shots, everybody hit the floor," said witness Michael Lewis. "It was crazy. People were falling -- it was pandemonium."
Authorities have made no arrests and a description of the gunman was not immediately available.

People call it "a tipping point," and no, much as I celebrate our restaurants and those who work in them, right now I'm not talking about when a check shows up at the end of a meal.
People call it "a tipping point," and no, much as I celebrate our restaurants and those who work in them, right now I'm not talking about when a check shows up at the end of a meal.
This is about the moment when we make a big shift in thinking and action, when a whole new approach takes over and suddenly (at least it seems sudden) we are seeing and doing things in a profoundly different way.
Our towns are at a tipping point when it comes to how we take care of our ballfields and playgrounds, our right-of-ways and open spaces. I believe we are going to make a fundamental shift away from chemical fertilizers and pesticides, turn to organic approaches to keep our fields green and our roadways open. We'll make healthier places for our kids to play, we'll save money doing it, and a few years later we'll look back and wonder why we didn't go this way sooner.
A presentation at the Cape Cod Selectmen and Councilors' Association last Friday, Sept. 14, really drove the point home. A fellow by the name of Charles "Chip" Osborne offered his thoughts, using some fancy terms like "turf management protocol," "changing mechanisms of fertility," and so on. But it was truly a down-to-earth conversation; Osborne has run the Town of Marblehead's land management for a dozen years. The town is basically pesticide-free, uses no synthetic fertilizers to keep its fields green, and shaved $18,000 off its budget by eliminating costly chemical purchases.
Osborne makes a compelling case that our reliance on a whole range of chemicals to grow grass, keep land open, and kill bugs is great for the companies that manufacture those products, but neither necessary nor best practice for our communities.
"This really is about focusing on our soils," said Osborne. "You grab a handful, analyze it, and then build up its qualities with some organic input. Then you bring mowing, irrigation, and good cultural practices to the forefront, instead of relying on synthetics.
"We all know that Cape Cod soil is different from soil in other places. But the bags of products sold at Home Depot are the same across much of the United States. That can't be what's best for us. And while years ago an organic approach might have cost 25 to 30 percent more, with new, proven techniques that's no longer true. It's even-steven for cost up front, with dramatic savings once the organic practices take hold."
For parents whose kids play on our ballfields, the peace of mind in knowing that there are no chemicals applied is profound. And for communities facing environmental crisis caused in part by nitrogen leaching into the groundwater, eliminating nitrogen fertilizers on town property is one of many positive steps that could and should be taken.
We all know about the controversies surrounding our utility, NStar, whether it should spray to control growth along its right-of-ways. Every Cape town has passed a resolution asking NStar to refrain. But if our towns continue to use some of those very same chemicals on land we control, the standard becomes double. Osborne is offering an alternative that is organic, and proven.
The great news is that Chip Osborne will be offering a day-long seminar on this topic, covering everything from watering and mowing tactics to pest control. Sponsored by GreenCAPE, the regional environmental group, Osborne's presentation is free and open to any and all municipal employees. The date is Tuesday, Oct. 30, in Barnstable Town Hall. Pre-registration is required by Oct. 5; the best way to sign up is at www. GreenCAPE.org.Here comes the tipping point.

You know I remember back not too long ago mind you when people just sat back and enjoyed an anime. Taking the good with the not so good and being happy to just get a new series to watch. Because back then you either had to wait for a series to be put on tv (with a high chance of it going unfinished) or mail order crappy VHS that lord only knows where they came from.
However people have become spoiled since the internet had open the flood gates giving access to hundreds/thousands of series many individuals sense of disbelief has drowned with this new found source of wealth. Now that we have more selections people have forgotten about the hard times and can now without a care in a world because they can just move on to the next.
Now going back to Gundam ever since Sunrise and Bandai strayed away form the UC universe fans have been bitching and moaning ever since. However I believe it's gotten even worse with AGE because people are afraid they don't want AGE to be popular out of fear that it would change the Gundam franchise into a kids show saying that its going to dumb down the brutality of war etc. Which that in itself is silly because the only reason the Gundam anime was created was to sell toys to kids and as fare as I can see AGE hasn't seem to dumbed anything down yet.

I gave the episode an 8, even though it's more of a 7. Nothing really special happened in the first half. The second was more entertaining. We saw the UE's ship and Woolf showed some skill in terms of surviving. I hope his Genoace Custom will perform better in future episodes, though. So far, I like him.
What I've found weird was Flit in this ep. Don't know why, but his behavior was off this time, with claiming it was his gundam and all. But he's still a kid after all, as seen with interactions with Woolf, so it's cool I guess.
I noticed alot of people seem to dislike Emily in this ep. The girl just cares for Flit, I'm cool with that. I actually find it very sweet of her to make sure Flit's safe.
Well, looking forward to next week^^

I give the episode an 8. It was more about character development than anything else and I liked that.
Glad to see that Flit was having trouble with Woolf, though he did recover faster than I thought he would against an "ace".
Woolf himself... he needs to get a new nickname cause The White Wolf is taken and not by someone who likes to pridefully boast and stuff. I do hope we delve more into his character and he becomes more fleshed out. He did show a high degree of resourcefulness on the field and he knows to keep his cool and knows his limits. Flit needs to learn some pointers from him.
Emily shows that while she is caring she can be quite selfish. We saw that in the first episode but that more apparent here. A stubborn but average 14 year old girl that has a crush on her childhood friend. A cliche they never get tried of using. Well I like it so long as its subtle and not in your face obvious.
Its the ending that interest me. I've seen on the blog fourms that one of the makers of Age posted on his tweet what the UE was. I hope its wrong cause that means I spoiled it BIG TIME for myself.

I can't say I'm pleased with this series thus far. It started out interesting, but now it's just tanked. Paintball battles in space and zero advancement of the plot, this stuff is getting painful. Seven days until they reach Fardain? Oi... taking literal space travel times too seriously. I'm trying to remain optimistic, but when I watched this ep a couple hours after it aired, I literally went "What? It's over already?".

I think some people take it as a sworn duty to bitch about and find fault with whatever the latest Gundam series is and take some perverse pleasure in doing so, but like I said, right now it's pretty tame here. If worse comes to worse the whiners and moaners have clearly established who they are (and have for a while now ^^^) and can be reported as necessary if they decide to break the rules. So far nobody has taken it to the extreme this week so personally I'm okay even if most of the complaints seem utterly trivial to me and more of the usual expecting a show to be something it never intended to be.

soooooo... Gundam age.. I just watched the first 4 episodes.. had some free time and hey, this is still Gundam. (right?)
First episode was underwhelming, I didn't get the introduction to this new universe I was hoping for. I didn't feel the action, the emergency, but most importantly, the Gundam itself felt very plain.. Not powerful, or dangerous, or mysterious.. The enemy units completely stole the show! they were everything the Gundam should have been.
second and third episodes were better. but still kind of underwhelming. old man died. kids saves people. suspicious cute girl being suspicious. (she is going to die! we all know this. xD).. hmm. I already kind of forgot everything else.. wait, did anything happen other than this?
episode no.4: Wolf guy... lolz..
- music is decent (should get better). I like the OP, reminded me of 'wings of words' from Destiny. The ending is your average j-pop song.
- Animation is great, sometimes even awesome!
- I like the interface graphics.
- The enemy MS
- Character design. (Not just the kids, I don't like any of the characters designs, too plain.)
- Gundam
- the story and the characters! ..Need more layers. this is too thin for a Gundam show, even if it's aimed at a younger audience.. By the way, how exactly is this going to work? there is not enough action and explosions in this show to get a kids attention. but there is not enough depth for the average adult. who exactly is going to watch this? (other than us, the Gundam fans) How are the ratings so far?

I am fine with the action - its very UC-like, that is, small-scale and slower than other AU's. I can see why people say that they lack in excitement though (and I would imagine that is one of the reasons for the show's complete lack of popularity with kids thus far...), but I really don't mind it. Its very nostalgic in a way.
As for story development - same thing there, its no different from how most Gundam series start. Right now, its about exposition and introducing characters, not crazy plot progression and twists that are usually reserved for mid-to-late series.
Are the story and worldview simple though? I would say yes they are, at least so far. The Advanced Generation world does seem a bit generic compared to other Gundam timelines. But I've said this before - the reason for that is due to the enemy, which is shrouded in mystery, and they still have 40-something episodes left to unveil these guys. I am sure once they are fully revealed we should see more exotic things about this timeline, whatever that is.
Another point is that the world should probably also change with the changing of the generations. So it would be interesting to see how that develops.
So yeah, I do admit it's a bit bland so far, and they seem to be trying to appealing to the common denominator to the detriment of the show, but I am definitely optimistic that it will get better... Someone at Sunrise is probably watching the ratings very closely too.

Woolf can be annoying but he's leadership quality, motivating to the untrained stress kid pilot and quick decision making in the battlefield is excellent.
I hope Woolf gives Flit some more basic military mock-up training and instruction guidance to mentally prepared for the stress in the warfare.

PARIS -- On Aura Tout Vu, which roughly translates as "Now You've Seen Everything," may be the quirkiest design house on the official Paris haute couture calendar. So it's not surprising that Lady Gaga numbers among its customers.
Label designers Livia Stoianova and Yassen Samouilov showed their spring-summer collection, themed "Cosmic Beetle," this week, and it was easy to imagine Lady Gaga wearing some of the clothes onstage. In keeping with the concept, real beetle wings substituted for sequins, lighting up necklines, shoulders and transparent sleeves or giving an entire dress a surreal-seeming iridescence.
And with the snow falling on Paris at the start of the week, a few raincoats seemed like a good idea, especially the Bulgarian design duo's fashionable clear plastic versions. Why hide couture beneath a typical trench, when one can protect precious ensembles and show them off at the same time?
