No. 74 men hoping to clinch bye, women on the verge of perfection
MACON, Ga. and KENNESAW, Ga. (April 11, 2013) – The ETSU men's and women's tennis teams make the trip to Georgia for a pair of Atlantic Sun matches this weekend, concluding their regular seasons against Mercer and Kennesaw State.
Friday, the No. 74 ETSU men (9-6, 5-1 A-Sun) and women (11-5, 6-0 A-Sun) each take on Mercer at 2 p.m., from the LeRoy Peddy Tennis Center. The regular season ends for each side on Saturday at the Fair Oaks Tennis Center, with the Bucs facing Kennesaw State at 10 a.m., before the Lady Bucs take their turn against the Owls at 2 p.m.
ETSU's men's side rides a four-match winning streak, earning 7-0 victories in its last three outings against NKU, Lipscomb and FGCU. The win to begin the streak came at Stetson, 6-1.
Entering the weekend, the Buccaneers are second in the A-Sun standings behind No. 63 North Florida, who handed ETSU its lone A-Sun loss to being the conference season, 4-3. Should the Buccaneers defeat both Georgia schools this weekend, they will clinch the No. 2 seed in the 2013 Atlantic Sun Tournament Championship.
Sophomore Rogerio Ribeiro (Sao Paulo, Brazil) is the Bucs' statistical leader at 25-11 overall, 10-4 dual and 6-0 in A-Sun play. All 14 of Ribeiro's spring contests have come in the No. 2 hole and he carries a seven-match winning streak. Senior Jesus Bandres (Caracas, Venezuela) is 17-11 overall, 11-3 dual and 5-1 in A-Sun play, carrying a five-match winning streak into the weekend.
The Lady Buccaneers are staring down the A-Sun Championship's top seed and will finish the conference season a perfect 8-0 with a pair of weekend victories. Last year's A-Sun runner-up has dominated in 2013, with its closest decision coming in a 5-2 victory against Florida Gulf Coast.
The ETSU women saw a seven-match winning streak come to an end on Sunday in Charlottesville, Va., losing to No. 17 Virginia, 4-1.
Freshman Lyn Yee Choo (Kuching, Malaysia) is chasing history. At 28-7 overall, 15-1 dual and 6-0 in A-Sun play, Choo is just four wins shy of tying Sandie Knight for ETSU's single-season wins record. Knight posted a mark of 32-9 in 2006.
Choo and classmate Anna Gerbasi (Caracas, Venezuela) jumped into the ITA's national doubles rankings on Tuesday at No. 71. The duo is 22-8 overall, 12-2 dual and 6-0 in conference play with a 1-1 record against nationally ranked opponents.
Full recaps of each match will be posted to ETSUBucs.com.

Anyone ever hear of a window, or unit of insulated glass, as having different winter and summer U values?
This wasn't on an NFRC sticker. It was on a glass manufacturer's spec sheet.
They listed it like this:
Winter - Air / Argon 0.35 / 0.31
Summer - Air / Argon 0.32 / 0.28
Our program requires a U value of 0.30 to receive an incentive rebate. So obviously, homeowners and contractors want to average the summer and winter Argon fill U values to come up with an average of 0.295 and call it good.
I think it is just a piece of insulated glass that they want to have installed/retrofitted into their existing wood windows, and get an incentive for that.

Pact of Umar, 7th Century?
The Status of Non-Muslims Under Muslim Rule
We heard from 'Abd al-Rahman ibn Ghanam [died 78/697] as follows: When Umar ibn al-Khattab, may God be pleased with him, accorded a peace to the Christians of Syria, we wrote to him as follows:
In the name of God, the Merciful and Compassionate. This is a letter to the servant of God Umar [ibn al-Khattab], Commander of the Faithful, from the Christians of such-and-such a city. When you came against us, we asked you for safe-conduct (aman) for ourselves, our descendants, our property, and the people of our community, and we undertook the following obligations toward you:
We shall not build, in our cities or in their neighborhood, new monasteries, Churches, convents, or monks' cells, nor shall we repair, by day or by night, such of them as fall in ruins or are situated in the quarters of the Muslims.
We shall keep our gates wide open for passersby and travelers. We shall give board and lodging to all Muslims who pass our way for three days.
We shall not give shelter in our churches or in our dwellings to any spy, nor bide him from the Muslims.
We shall not teach the Qur'an to our children.
We shall not manifest our religion publicly nor convert anyone to it. We shall not prevent any of our kin from entering Islam if they wish it.
We shall show respect toward the Muslims, and we shall rise from our seats when they wish to sit.
We shall not seek to resemble the Muslims by imitating any of their garments, the qalansuwa, the turban, footwear, or the parting of the hair. We shall not speak as they do, nor shall we adopt their kunyas.
We shall not mount on saddles, nor shall we gird swords nor bear any kind of arms nor carry them on our- persons.
We shall not engrave Arabic inscriptions on our seals.
We shall not sell fermented drinks.
We shall clip the fronts of our heads.
We shall always dress in the same way wherever we may be, and we shall bind the zunar round our waists
We shall not display our crosses or our books in the roads or markets of the Muslims. We shall use only clappers in our churches very softly. We shall not raise our voices when following our dead. We shall not show lights on any of the roads of the Muslims or in their markets. We shall not bury our dead near the Muslims.
We shall not take slaves who have beenallotted to Muslims.
We shall not build houses overtopping the houses of the Muslims.
(When I brought the letter to Umar, may God be pleased with him, he added, "We shall not strike a Muslim.")
We accept these conditions for ourselves and for the people of our community, and in return we receive safe-conduct.
If we in any way violate these undertakings for which we ourselves stand surety, we forfeit our covenant [dhimma], and we become liable to the penalties for contumacy and sedition.
Umar ibn al-Khittab replied: Sign what they ask, but add two clauses and impose them in addition to those which they have undertaken. They are: "They shall not buy anyone made prisoner by the Muslims," and "Whoever strikes a Muslim with deliberate intent shall forfeit the protection of this pact."
from Al-Turtushi, Siraj al-Muluk, pp. 229-230.

Aw, now you've done it: Just watch the next game be a pseudo-sequel with a title like Kaizoku Musou: Xtreme Romance Edition or something of that sort.

Boy, you shoulda been around back when Water 7 was running fresh off the weekly chapters. People were practically fapping to him left and right! Personally, I don't care much for him (find him a bit boring, actually), but I can easily understand why he was so well received. Plastic as he may have been, he pretty much got the whole "cold-blooded killer" down pat, as Undertaker mentioned above.

Casualties before Lucci in One Piece : A simpleton that got himself shot by Lucky Roo. Swine's Pirate Crew that Crocodile killed personally. In short : Probably 5 or 10.
Casualties after Lucci in One Piece : 500 kingdom Soldiers, Random Pirate Crew including Captain, Nero. And probably a thousand more that we dont even know according to Spandam's reports. And no one miraculously resurrected later on!
Just when people started aproaring because One Piece is like a child's show that doesnt even have any proper death scenes plus a character that got resurrected after a nuclear bomb exploded near him without any proper reason at all,
The badass Cipher Pol agent appears and slaughters everyone, saving the day! More than enough reasons to love Lucci! No really, I guess I loved determination/power/sadism/awesomeness combined in one villain. That was very rare in One Piece at that time. Crocodile was one thing, but he was a man of his mission and didnt even care to watch Luffy getting devoured by his own sandslide. Lucci however, would wait till the end to catch a glimpse of his suffering.

Off the top of my head I can also think of guys like the bandit leader who got eaten by that sea king, that one poor schmuck from Buggy's crew who got blasted to oblivion by one of those cannons, Mr. 11 (who was killed off-screen), those elite castle guards from Alabasta who drank that life-shortening water and died fighting Crocodile, I guess some nameless people who died during the same arc's civil war, etc..... but yeah, I guess 5-10 may be a decent estimate. But then I think of Whiskey Peak where Zoro had apparently killed about 100 bounty hunters (excluding a few people like that one nun and little kid he knocked out), and it really does make one wonder if Oda was actually that lenient with death before the skip.....
Going back on topic, since we have confirmation of Eneru being a boss (and a playable one at that), I guess that means we can assume that more (if not all) of the previous game's bosses are playable, as well? But personally, I'm hoping we get more bosses from the arcs that were skipped (I'd love to be able to play as Moria or Foxy ).

DHAKA, Bangladesh | At least 112 people were killed in a fire that raced through a multi-story garment factory just outside of Bangladesh's capital, an official said Sunday.
DHAKA, Bangladesh | At least 112 people were killed in a fire that raced through a multi-story garment factory just outside of Bangladesh's capital, an official said Sunday.
The blaze broke out at the seven-story factory operated by Tazreen Fashions late Saturday. By Sunday morning, firefighters had recovered 100 bodies, fire department Operations Director Maj. Mohammad Mahbub told The Associated Press.
He said another 12 people who had suffered injuries after jumping from the building to escape the fire later died at hospitals. The death toll could rise as the search for victims was continuing, he said.
Local media reported that up to 124 people were killed in the fire. The cause of the blaze was not immediately clear, and authorities have ordered an investigation.
Bangladesh has some 4,000 garment factories, many without proper safety measures. The country annually earns about $20 billion from exports of garment products, mainly to the United States and Europe.
Relatives of the factory workers were frantically looking for their loved ones. Sabina Yasmine said she saw the body of her daughter-in-law, who died in the fire, but had no trace of her son, who also worked at the factory.
"Oh, Allah, where's my soul? Where's my son?" wailed Yasmine, who works at another factory in the area. "I want the factory owner to be hanged. For him, many have died, many have gone."
Mahbub said firefighters recovered 69 bodies from the second floor of the factory alone. He said most of the victims had been trapped inside the factory, located just outside of Dhaka, with no emergency exits leading outside the building.
Many workers who had taken shelter on the roof of the factory were rescued, but firefighters were unable to save those who were trapped inside, Mahbub said.

This is one of those I-haven't-blogged-in-a-couple-months posts.
But, unlike the rest of you all, I have some legitimate excuses.
So, let's just cut to the chase, shall we?
This is where I've been and what I've been doing since I dropped off the face of the WordPress.
1. I got a new job as Social Media Editor at U.S. News & World Report. It's even Facebook official. I started last week, and I'm super excited.

Redford not upset about Oscar snub
Robert Redford has insisted he is "not upset" following his Oscar snub.
The Hollywood star was thought to be a contender for the Best Actor Academy Award for his strong performance in All Is Lost, and many critics were surprised when he was left off the list of nominees this week.
But the 77-year-old has said he isn't too worried about missing out on a chance at the gong, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Speaking at a press conference to launch his Sundance Film Festival, Redford said: "I don't want that to get in the way of why we're here. Let me just speak frankly about how I feel about it."
He explained that he did the film to get back to his acting roots, but suggested that some things are out of the actor's control.
He also implied that some of the blame might lie with the film's distributor, Roadside Attractions, which is partially owned by Lionsgate.
"Hollywood is what it is, it's a business and so when these films go to be voted on, usually they're heavily dependent on campaigns," he said.
"In our case I think we suffered from little to no distribution. And so as a result, our distributors - I don't know why - they didn't want to spend the money, they were afraid, they were just incapable, I don't know."
"I'm not disturbed by it, I'm not upset by it because, like I said, it's a business," he added.


text: A Long Islander for the last dozen years, Shereck said it's his goal to create an arena that provides affordable pricing for families, while incorporating local universities such as Hofstra, Molloy College and Adelphi, and youth organizations to host fundraisers. "I've met some really nice people," Shereck. "And I said, you know what, let me do something to try to give back and leave a legacy for my grandkids."

You already have it! Every copy of IBM i ships with Zend Server. Just go to our download page, follow the simple instructions for installation, and then register with us--easy!
You can learn more about PHP in the way that suits you best: in formal class or self-paced through webinars and white papers. See our course curriculum designed just for you, the IBM i community. And check out our pre-requisite knowledge resources to assess what you need.
PHP is a fully functional web scripting language used to build dynamic web pages. PHP is developed in the Open Source community by hundreds of developers form around the world. Early community members include Zend's CEO Andi Gutmans and CTO Zeev Suraski, who wrote the "Zend Engine" which is still a major component of the PHP Parser (interpreter equivalent of a compiler). The work done by Andi, Zeev and all the PHP community members has culminated into PHP becoming the leading language for Internet applications representing well over 35% of all internet websites and 6 of the top 10 most visited web sites.
After an exhaustive search for a rapid web development technology to complement their WebSphere product line for IBM i, IBM partnered with Zend Technologies to bring PHP to the platform. Now 9 years into the partnership, IBM and Zend continue to provide a state-of-the-art solution for quickly and easily developing web content for IBM i to the steady migrating stream of Net.Data, RPG and COBOL developers.
PHP, while a great tool for web development, cannot do it alone. PHP works closely with HTML for building dynamic web content on IBM i. HTML is to PHP what DDS and Display Files are to RPG. Batch based PHP may not use any HTML while interactive applications require a significant understanding of HTML syntax and functions.
RPG is a business language that is most popularly used on IBM i. Many applications and countless programs have been developed for business purposes such as shipping, order entry and accounting functions. Many organizations are significantly invested in RPG and want to leverage their investments as they move applications from the 5250 (green screen) interface to the browser or Internet via the World Wide Web. PHP makes it easy for these businesses to leverage that investment through capabilities such as the PHP Toolkit for IBM i which allows RPG applications to be fully leveraged by providing back end business logic to interactive web applications.
There are many great examples of PHP applications being developed and deployed on the IBM i. From applications that can access data and applications via a browser, to developing web-based front-ends that leverage RPG business logic or completely web-enabling entire ERP systems, PHP's ease of use and enterprise capabilities combined with the power of IBM i has been the ideal choice for modernization. Here are just a few examples:

Asked for male, 24 years old from Muzaffarpur
I used to brush my teeth daily but it doesn't clean it's very dirty once I consult with doctor then he said it's due to lack of calcium. please suggest.
Good morning lybrate-user. Reason for dirty teeth can be many usually based on Extrinsic or Intrisic stains. If reason is Extrinsic (Improper brushing, Coffee or tea stains, chewing gutkha and all) it can be treated with professional Cleaning (Scaling). If reason is intrinsic than it depends upon the severity of the problem and it can be treated with bleaching (Chemical whitening of the teeth) or masking the tooth/teeth with Veeners.

I am suffering with bleeding of gums and bad breath. Last year I visited doctor, he said my left most 3 jaw teeth are not good, and also he applied cement to one of the teeth. From that onwards I am experiencing bad breath. From the past 10 years I had bleeding of gums.
Good evening! Use sensoform gum paint apply and massage over the gums it strengthens the gums. And use UltraSoft Bristle toothbrush. To avoid bad smell. You need to follow some basic regular habit for lifetime. Brush your teeth with Oral-B UltraSoft Tooth Brush in circular motion without applying much pressure. Use Cleanodent mouth wash and if you can. Brush twice a day. If you do not have time to brush twice then gargle well with water after your dinner and avoid drinking or eating milk products or sweets before going to bed.

Tobacco has many ill effects on the health and dental health is one of them. From dark stains to poor gum health to increased incidence of decay to the more severe oral cancer, tobacco has a very detrimental effect on your dental health. Read on know more about how harmful tobacco can be on the dental system.
- Brown teeth and tongue: One of the tell-tale signs of a smoker are the brown teeth and stained tongue. A dentist need not even be told that the person smokes, it just shows!! What is interesting is that these stains do not go away with a scaling, they just continue to form as long as tobacco is being put into the system.
- Gum disease: The oral health of a smoker is definitely not at its best. With the stains on the teeth, the gums are more prone for irritation and infection. This leads to grayish, unhealthy gums. The periodontal fibers are also affected, leading to bad breath, pocket formation and even tooth mobility in severe cases. The mouth is generally drier in comparison and so bacterial growth is more favored, further accelerating the process of gum disease and teeth decay.
- Dental caries: The increased amount of bacteria leads to greater incidence of dental decay. Chances of cervical decay (around the gum line) and root decay are higher in smokers.
- Bad breath: There are two reasons to it one is the tobacco per se and the second is the dry mouth, which leads to reduced saliva and increased bacterial growth.
- Impaired taste: The tongue has a constant coating too, leaving the taste buds unable to completely taste food substances. Ask any smoker a couple of questions and you would realize how they never get to enjoy and taste the food as it should be.
- Poor healing: Whether it is a gum disease, a tooth removal or a root canal therapy, smokers who go for dental treatment need a longer time to respond compared to nonsmokers. If smoking is continued at the same pace, then the chances of developing a dry socket with an extraction or a failed root canal therapy are quite high. There are more failures reported in success of implant in smokers as compared to non smokers.
- Cancer: The most dangerous and the most severe of all, cancer of the cheek, gums, lips, tongue, roof of the mouth can all happen in smokers, twice more likely in comparison with non-smokers.
Now, if all these are not good enough to kick the habit, remember this list is only for the mouth and the teeth. The whole body goes through a lot more harmful effects, and that should be a good reason to quit tobacco use in any form. If you need professional help, do not be embarrassed to seek.

At Mission San Juan Capistrano, founded centuries ago to spread the Christian faith, Rabbi Allen Krause started an annual interfaith conference in 1994 because he felt that Orange County's religious groups were too insular.
About 600 people attended the first Religious Diversity Faire, with spiritual leaders from more than a dozen faiths holding workshops on their beliefs and practices. The event was staged for 15 more years.
Providing a window into the religious beliefs of others was a recurring theme for Krause, who was recognized as a trailblazer in the county's interfaith movement.
"I'm sure most of us have never seen a Muslim worship service," he said at the first conference, where he shared his Jewish customs. "If we could just see into one, we could get to understand one another better, and thereby appreciate each other more."
Krause, who served as a rabbi for 25 years at
of South Orange County, died March 3 of prostate cancer at his Mission Viejo home, said his wife, Sherri. He was 72.
"He would really put himself in the shoes of others and go at it a hundred miles an hour trying to understand different issues," said Ibrahim "Abe" Ali, who became friends with Krause after the rabbi reached out to the Muslim community after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
Krause's attempts to build understanding between religions included co-founding the South County Interfaith Clergy, promoting ongoing dialogues between faiths and leading an interfaith volunteer expedition to build low-income housing in Mexico.
Much of his life was also devoted to human rights issues.
In the late 1960s, Krause interviewed Jewish rabbis in the South to document their role in the civil rights movement, research that has been widely mined by other writers, his wife said.
Active in the Save Soviet Jewry movement in the 1970s, Krause traveled to the Soviet Union in 1986 to provide support to families of jailed Jewish dissidents. Most had asked for books on Jewish history and culture.
After founding the Ad Hoc Rabbinic Committee to Rescue Ethiopian Jewry in the early 1980s, he spearheaded a national petition campaign to persuade the U.S. government to take action.
"He genuinely cared for others," Ali said. "He internalized the Jewish tradition of healing the world. It really, really, really emanated from his heart and soul."
He was born Philip Allen Krause on Sept. 7, 1939, in San Antonio and lived in Cleveland and Northern California before his family settled in Westchester in the late 1940s. His father died when Krause was 13, and his mother was a bank executive.
, he earned a bachelor's degree in American history in 1961. After receiving bachelor's and master's degrees from Hebrew Union College, Krause studied toward a doctorate at the
For most of the 1970s, the rabbi led a congregation in Fremont, Calif. He founded a Jewish day school there and another, in 1986, in Mission Viejo.
When Krause arrived at Temple Beth El in the early 1980s, the Reform congregation did not have a permanent home. In 2001, it moved into what was the largest synagogue in Orange County, a 65,000-square-foot structure in Aliso Viejo.
Last year the temple honored Krause for "teaching us with words as well as his actions" how to
"tikkun olam,"
a Hebrew phrase that means "to repair the world."
In addition to Sherri, whom he married in 1963, Krause is survived by his son, Stephen, and daughter Gavriella.

Crackers & Dips by Ivy Manning
It was really only recently that I discovered the simplest crackers ever and I still haven't quite gotten over how crazy-good they are. Now this new book from Ivy Manning has come along and broken the universe of homemade crackers wide open for me! Whether the aim is a healthy afternoon snack or a fancy cracker appetizer for our next dinner party, Ivy Manning shows us how to make crackers for each and every occasion.
Quick Facts
• Who wrote it: Ivy Manning
• Who published it: Chronicle Books
• Number of recipes: Over 50
• Recipes for right now: Tangy Cheddar Cheese Crackers, Japanese Rice Crackers with Fuikake, Middle Eastern Falafel Crisps, Spelt Pretzel Rounds, Skinny Mint Chocolate Graham Crackers, Spicy Red Lentil Dip, Wasabi Edamame Shmear, Mushroom and Cashew Pate
• Other highlights: Crackers & Dips is divided into six main sections: classic crackers, crackers from around the world, healthy and wheat-free crackers, shortcut crackers, sweet dessert crackers, and a big section of dips. I can already tell that the recipes from the classic crackers section will become constant companions, but I'm probably most excited to try the recipes from the international section. Homemade rice crackers! Sweet and salty oatmeal crackers from Norway! And the very idea of falafel crisps is making me a little weak-kneed. Must make these asap.
Although Ivy's emphasis is definitely on the crunchy crackers, dips are not neglected. Banish any ideas you might have of gloppy sour-cream-and-spice-packet dips. These recipes elevate the dip table to something that seems almost too good to be called an appetizer. I'm particularly excited to try the Tomatillos and Avocado Dip once the tomatillos start coming in. It sounds like a cross between salsa and guacamole — how could that be bad?! I'm also intrigued by the Mushroom and Cashew Pate, which mixes two different mushrooms with cashews, aromatic spices, and a glug of truffle oil. Sophisticated and totally vegan.
I think this book is destined to become dog-eared and batter-smeared. The recipes feel accessible and exciting, and Ivy's clear instructions make me feel confident heading into the kitchen.
• Who would enjoy this book? Anyone who loves a good snack! Cooks who love entertaining will also want to keep this book handy for all their summer picnics — and on into the fall and winter entertaining season.

DOVER � It�ll be all about the apples this Saturday.
The 28th Annual Apple Harvest Day from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., will � if tradition holds � fill Central Avenue and Henry Law Park with more than 25,000 people.
Nearly 300 vendors, six stages of entertainment, creative art displays and delicious food and amusements for the entire family will line the streets.
Apple Harvest Day is organized by the Greater Dover Chamber of Commerce and underwritten by Federal Savings Bank.
The crisp red fruit of autumn will be at the heart of the festival this year. The WOKQ Apple Pie Judging Contest at the XFINITY Stage will return for its 27th year. Bakers are encouraged to submit their special recipes to the judges, lead by WOKQ Morning Waking Crew�s Mark Ericson. Orchard Alley will also host King Tut�s Cider Mill from Eliot, Maine, with an old fashioned cider press on display.
New to Orchard Alley this year is the Bernson Legal, PLLC Stage, hosted by The Dover Brickhouse. The venue will feature musical performances throughout the day, including The Mallett Brothers, Whiskey Kill Duo and James McGarvey.
�This will only be the second year of having Orchard Alley at Apple Harvest Day,� commented Tiffany Melanson, Apple Harvest Day Committee member from Federal Savings Bank. �Having a working cider mill at the festival will be a huge draw for families and having an entertainment stage at the venue will be a great addition.�
The stage on Orchard Alley is not the only new addition at Apple Harvest Day this year. During the festival, the McConnell Center, at 61 Locust St., will be transformed into the McConnell Center Arts Pavilion, featuring live music, local artists and food vendors.
Also new in 2012 is the Todd�s Touch Auto Alley which will fill First Street with classic and super-modified cars, as well as a monster truck.
�We are very excited about the three new venue additions this year,� commented Christine Goodwin of W.B. Mason, chair of the Apple Harvest Day Committee. �The stage on Orchard Street adds yet another fantastic music venue to the event and the McConnell Center Arts Pavilion is a great opportunity to showcase all of the wonderfully talented artists and crafters that call Dover home. I think the Todd�s Touch Auto Alley will be a big hit with the kids.�
For the fourth straight year, the 5K road race will kick off Apple Harvest Day. PainCare and Salmon Falls Family Healthcare were recently named underwriting sponsors of the race, along with Bernson Legal, PLLC and Kennebunk Savings. They have been underwriting sponsors every year. The race, managed by Sub5 Race Management, will kick off at 8:30 a.m. and will start and finish on River Street. The USTAF certified course will wind through historic downtown Dover and is suitable for beginner runners and walkers, as well as advanced racers.
�Our practice is based on enhancing the quality of life for our patients, so supporting the Apple Harvest Day 5K is a natural fit for PainCare and Salmon Falls Family Healthcare,� commented Michael J. O�Connell, CEO.
More than 700 runners are anticipated to take part in the event.
�The Apple Harvest Day 5K is gaining notoriety around the Seacoast as a premier road race,� commented Greater Dover Chamber of Commerce Community Events Manager, Michael Mengers. �A major reason why is because of the support we receive from PainCare and Salmon Falls Family Healthcare year after year.�
Registration for the 5K Road Race is now open and can be done by visiting the Apple Harvest Day page at www.dovernh.org. The first 250 who registered receive free T-shirts. Pre-registration is $18 and registration at the race is $20.
After the race, families will find plenty to do at the Service Credit Union KidZone in Lower Henry Law Park. The venue will offer 16 inflatable amusement rides in addition to the Profile Bank Roaming Train and Dover Auto World Traveling Barnyard.
�The great thing about Apple Harvest Day is that there really is a little something for everyone,� said Greater Dover Chamber of Commerce Community Events Manager Michael Mengers. �Whether you are running in the road race, shopping with the vendors, or just bouncing from stage to stage listening to music, there is always plenty to do at Apple Harvest Day.�
In addition to the Bernson Legal, PLLC Stage on Orchard Alley, music lovers can also enjoy live performances at the Ralph�s House of Tone North End Stage hosted by 98.7FM The Bay in the Ross Furniture Parking Lot on Third Street, the Urban Tree Service Songwriter Stage hosted by The Shark 105.3FM in Waldron Court and the Cocheco Arts & Technology Academy Stage in the Cocheco Courtyard. The Strand Theatre will also be open for the day with The Zone Church showing two movies, King Kong and Up.
Henry Law Park will be the location of Apple Harvest Day�s largest food court, complete with traditional carnival foods, as well as seasonal favorites such as candy apples and apple crisp. An additional food court is located in the Ross Furniture Parking Lot on Third Street. Early risers can attend the Kiwanis Pancake Breakfast on Orchard Street from 8:30 to 10:30 a.m.
Festival attendees can park at the Dover Library on Locust Street and the Dover Transportation Center on Chestnut Street. Both lots will be serviced by the Apple Harvest Day Shuttle provided by Maple Suites, which will drop passengers off in the heart of the festival at Henry Law Park and at the Janetos Parking Lot on Main Street.
Upon arriving at Apple Harvest Day, festival-goers are encouraged to visit the Chamber of Commerce Information Center at the corner of Central Avenue and Orchard Street or the Measured Progress Volunteer Headquarters inside H&R Block at 447 Central Ave. to receive a Foster�s Daily Democrat festival guide complete with map and entertainment schedules.
For up-to-date information on Apple Harvest Day visit www.dovernh.org, www.facebook.com/doverappleharvest or call the Greater Dover Chamber of Commerce at (603) 742-2218.

These snowflakes are very basic designs which can be applied to any number of art projects but when I designed them I generally had absolute beginners, preschool age children and and people with special needs in mind. First Step designs are extremely simple, elementary level patterns which use very basic cutout shapes to help introduce math concepts in an entertaining manner.
Most First Step color me patterns have just two or three basic cut shape (circle, square, triangle). These simple shapes are repeated over 2, 3, 4, and 6 sided designs to demonstrate how varied results can be obtained.
The designs on this page were made from extremely simple 2-sided snow flake folding patterns. I found it amazingly fun to see some fairly complex patterns come out of just a few simple snips, and how different the end result is when applying the exact same design to 3, 4 aqnd 6 sided folds.
All of the patterns have folding cut out versions as well as stencil versions. Have some fun with the educational process and give the child one of each of the 2,3,4,and 6 sided patterns so they can discover for themselves the differences.
I think, of all the patterns in Paper Snowflakes's web site, these simple little rudimentary shapes do the best job of clarifying how much difference there is to applying simple directional folds to similar shapes.
For instance, take design #2001, which forms a cross or an "X" shape when folded with the 2 sided pattern. The same "L shape", or straight edge, when applied to a 3 sided pattern #3001 transformed into a form that looks like three arrows converging. When applied to the 4 sided pattern #4001, the cross or "x" resembles the quadrant cross (a little bit). Then, lastly, when applied to a #6001 6 sided pattern, the shape resembles the Union Jack which is a combination of several different crosses.

Ten Rabbis Explain God
An embarrassing secret: Jews don't like to talk about God. We pride ourselves as a religion of action more than belief. But we are much than that. God makes a difference in our lives.
To help show why, I've compiled some of the most meaningful statements I've encountered. I share it with students and seekers of all faiths. It captures a small slice of Jewish beliefs.

Ms. Raben's poetry will bring to mind the expressive musical journeys explored by many of the more adventurous jazz artists of decades past. They referred then to a place – more a state of mind – called The Big Room, wherein the music was stretched to the limits of melody, chord changes and rhythmic shifts that pressed the imagination to imagistic heights.
Toni Raben brings to her poetic Big Room Terracotta Smoke, and those drawn in will be captivated.
Cover Art by: Alan Dick
Lang Leav is a poet and internationally exhibiting artist. Her work expresses the intricacies of love and loss. Love & Misadventure is her first poetry collection.
These four poems, "Phenomenal Woman," "Still I Rise," "Weekend Glory," and "Our Grandmothers," are among the most remembered and acclaimed of Maya Angelou's poems. They celebrate women with a majesty that has inspired and touched the hearts of millions.
"Phenomenal Woman" is a phenomenal poem that speaks to us of where we are as women at the dawn of a new century. In a clear voice, Maya Angelou vividly reminds us of our towering strength and beauty.
Belonging in the immortal company of the great works of literature, Dante Alighieri's poetic masterpiece, The Divine Comedy, is a moving human drama, an unforgettable visionary journey through the infinite torment of Hell, up the arduous slopes of Purgatory, and on to the glorious realm of Paradise—the sphere of universal harmony and eternal salvation.
Now, for the first time, John Ciardi's brilliant and authoritative translations of Dante's three soaring canticles—The Inferno, The Purgatorio, and The Paradiso—have been gathered together in a single volume. Crystallizing the power and beauty inherent in the great poet's immortal conception of the aspiring soul, The Divine Comedy is a dazzling work of sublime truth and mystical intensity.
This long-awaited new edition of Lattimore's Iliad is designed to bring the book into the twenty-first century—while leaving the poem as firmly rooted in ancient Greece as ever. Lattimore's elegant, fluent verses—with their memorably phrased heroic epithets and remarkable fidelity to the Greek—remain unchanged, but classicist Richard Martin has added a wealth of supplementary materials designed to aid new generations of readers. A new introduction sets the poem in the wider context of Greek life, warfare, society, and poetry, while line-by-line notes at the back of the volume offer explanations of unfamiliar terms, information about the Greek gods and heroes, and literary appreciation. A glossary and maps round out the book.
The result is a volume that actively invites readers into Homer's poem, helping them to understand fully the worlds in which he and his heroes lived—and thus enabling them to marvel, as so many have for centuries, at Hektor and Ajax, Paris and Helen, and the devastating rage of Achilleus.
Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's in the reach of my arms,
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
Thus begins "Phenomenal Woman," just one of the beloved poems collected here in Maya Angelou's third book of verse. These poems are powerful, distinctive, and fresh—and, as always, full of the lifting rhythms of love and remembering. And Still I Rise is written from the heart, a celebration of life as only Maya Angelou has discovered it.
"It is true poetry she is writing," M.F.K. Fisher has observed, "not just rhythm, the beat, rhymes. I find it very moving and at times beautiful. It has an innate purity about it, unquenchable dignity. . . . It is astounding, flabbergasting, to recognize it, in all the words I read every day and night . . . it gives me heart, to hear so clearly the caged bird singing and to understand her notes."
Leav has an unnerving ability to see inside the hearts and minds of her readers. Her talent for translating complex emotions with astonishing simplicity has won her a cult following of devoted fans from all over the world.
Lang Leav is a poet and internationally exhibiting artist.
The Poet's Companion presents brief essays on the elements of poetry, technique, and suggested subjects for writing, each followed by distinctive writing exercises. The ups and downs of writing life—including self-doubt and writer's block—are here, along with tips about getting published and writing in the electronic age. On your own, this book can be your "teacher," while groups, in or out of the classroom, can profit from sharing weekly assignments.
Despite the fact that his first published works were books of poetry, during his lifetime Edgar Allan Poe was recognized more for his literary criticism and prose than his poetry. However, Poe's poetic works have since become as well-known as his famous stories, and reflect similar themes of mystery and the macabre. "Annabel Lee" was the last complete poem composed by Poe, and was most likely inspired by his wife, Virginia Eliza Clemm Poe.

Revised and corrected, this edition includes Yeats's own notes on his poetry, complemented by explanatory notes from esteemed Yeats scholar Richard J. Finneran. The Collected Poems of W. B. Yeats is the most comprehensive edition of one of the world's most beloved poets available in paperback.
In his work a continent awakens to consciousness," wrote the Swedish Academy in awarding the Nobel Prize to Pablo Neruda, author of more than thirty-five books of poetry and one of Latin America's most revered writers and political figures-a loyal member of the Communist party, a lifelong diplomat and onetime senator, a man lionized during his lifetime as "the people's poet."
Born Neftali Basoalto, Neruda adopted his pen name in fear of his family's disapproval, and yet by the age of twenty-five he was already famous for the book Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair, which remains his most beloved. During the next fifty years, a seemingly boundless metaphorical language linked his romantic fantasies and the fierce moral and political compass-exemplified in books such as Canto General-that made him an adamant champion of the dignity of ordinary men and women.
Edited and with an introduction by Ilan Stavans, this is the most comprehensive single-volume collection of this prolific poet's work in English. Here the finest translations of nearly six hundred poems by Neruda are collected and join specially commissioned new translations that attest to Neruda's still-resounding presence in American letters.

From the revolutionary "Seduction" to the tender new poem, "Just a Simple Declaration of Love," from the whimsical "I Wrote a Good Omelet" to the elegiac "All Eyez on U," written for Tupac Shakur, these poems embody the fearless passion and spirited wit for which Nikki Giovanni is beloved and revered.
Romantic, bold, and erotic, Love Poems expresses notions of love in ways that are delightfully unexpected. Articulating in sensuous verse what we know only instinctively, Nikki Giovanni once again confirms her place as one of our nations's most distinguished poets and powerful truth-tellers.In a career that has spanned more than a quarter century, starting with her explosive early years in the Black Rights Movement, Nikki Giovanni has earned a reputation as one of America's most celebrated and controversial writers. Her mind-speaking work has made her a universal favorite and a number-one best-seller.The love poems-the revolutionary "Seduction," the whimsical "I Wrote a Good Omelet," and the tender "My House" to name just a few-are among the most beloved of all Nikki Giovanni's works. Now, Love Poems brings together these and other favorites with over twenty new poems. Romantic, bold, and erotic, Love Poems will once again confirm Nikki Giovanni's place among the country's most renowned poets and truth tellers.
Nikki self–published her first book Black Feeling, Black Talk/BlackJudgement in 1969, selling 10,000 copies; William Morrow published in 1970. Know for its iconic revolutionary phrases, it is heralded as one of the most important volumes of modern African–American poetry and is considered the seminal volume of Nikki's body of work.
My House (Morrow 1972) marks a new dimension in tone and philosphy––This is Giovanni's first foray into the autobiographical.
In The Women and the Men (Morrow 1975), Nikki displays her compassion for the people, things and places she has encountered––She reveres the ordinary and is in search of the extraordinary.
Cotton Candy on a Rainy Day (Morrow 1978) is one of the most poignant and introspective of all Giovanni's collections. These poems chronicle the drastic change that took place during the 1970s––when the dreams of the Civil Rights era seemed to have evaporated.
Those Who Ride the Night Winds (Morrow 1983) is devoted to "the day trippers and midnight cowboys," the ones who have devoted their lives to pushing the limits of the human condition and shattered the constraints of the stautus quo.
To Persians , the poems of Hafiz are not "classical literature" from a remote past but cherished wisdom from a dear and intimate friend that continue to be quoted in daily life. With uncanny insight, Hafiz captures the many forms and stages of love. His poetry outlines the stages of the mystic's "path of love"-a journey in which love dissolves personal boundaries and limitations to join larger processes of growth and transformation.
With this stunning collection, Ladinsky has succeeded brilliantly in translating the essence of one of Islam's greatest poetic and spiritual voices.
"If you haven't yet had the delight of dining with Daniel Ladinsky's sweet, playful renderings of the musings of the great saints, I Heard God Laughing is a perfect appetizer. . . . This newly released edition of his first playful foray into Hafiz's divinely inspired poetry is essential reading . . . . Ladinsky is a master who will be remembered for finally bringing Hafiz alive in the West."—Alexandra Marks, The Christian Science Monitor
"America's favorite poet."—The Wall Street Journal
From the two-term Poet Laureate of the United States Billy Collins comes his first volume of new and selected poems in twelve years. Aimless Love combines fifty new poems with generous selections from his four most recent books—Nine Horses, The Trouble with Poetry, Ballistics, and Horoscopes for the Dead. Collins's unmistakable voice, which brings together plain speech with imaginative surprise, is clearly heard on every page, reminding us how he has managed to enrich the tapestry of contemporary poetry and greatly expand its audience. His work is featured in top literary magazines such as The New Yorker, Poetry, and The Atlantic, and he sells out reading venues all across the country. Appearing regularly in The Best American Poetry series, his poems appeal to readers and live audiences far and wide and have been translated into more than a dozen languages. By turns playful, ironic, and serious, Collins's poetry captures the nuances of everyday life while leading the reader into zones of inspired wonder. In the poet's own words, he hopes that his poems "begin in Kansas and end in Oz." Touching on the themes of love, loss, joy, and poetry itself, these poems showcase the best work of this "poet of plenitude, irony, and Augustan grace" (The New Yorker).
Go, little book,
out of this house and into the world,
carriage made of paper rolling toward town
bearing a single passenger
beyond the reach of this jittery pen
and far from the desk and the nosy gooseneck lamp.
It is time to decamp,
put on a jacket and venture outside,
time to be regarded by other eyes,
bound to be held in foreign hands.
So off you go, infants of the brain,
with a wave and some bits of fatherly advice:
stay out as late as you like,
don't bother to call or write,
and talk to as many strangers as you can.
Praise for Aimless Love
"[Billy Collins] is able, with precious few words, to make me cry. Or laugh out loud. He is a remarkable artist. To have such power in such an abbreviated form is deeply inspiring."—J. J. Abrams, The New York Times Book Review
"His work is poignant, straightforward, usually funny and imaginative, also nuanced and surprising. It bears repeated reading and reading aloud."—The Plain Dealer
"Collins has earned almost rock-star status. . . . He knows how to write layered, subtly witty poems that anyone can understand and appreciate—even those who don't normally like poetry. . . . The Collins in these pages is distinctive, evocative, and knows how to make the genre fresh and relevant."—The Christian Science Monitor
"Collins's new poems contain everything you've come to expect from a Billy Collins poem. They stand solidly on even ground, chiseled and unbreakable. Their phrasing is elegant, the humor is alive, and the speaker continues to stroll at his own pace through the plainness of American life."—The Daily Beast
"[Collins's] poetry presents simple observations, which create a shared experience between Collins and his readers, while further revealing how he takes life's everyday humdrum experiences and makes them vibrant."—The Times Leader

Rumi's masterpieces have inspired countless people throughout the centuries, and Coleman Barks's exquisite renderings of the thirteenth-century Persian mystic are widely considered the definitive versions for our time. Barks's translations capture the inward exploration and intensity that characterize Rumi's poetry, making this unique voice of mysticism and desire contemporary while remaining true to the original poems. In this volume readers will encounter the essence of Sufism's insights into the experience of divine love, wisdom, and the nature of both humanity and God.
While Barks's stamp on this collection is clear, it is Rumi's voice that leaps off these pages with a rapturous power that leaves readers breathless. These poems express our deepest yearning for the transcendent connection with the source of the divine: there are passionate outbursts about the torment of longing for the beloved and the sweet delight that comes from union; stories of sexual adventures and of loss; poems of love and fury, sadness and joy; and quiet truths about the beauty and variety of human emotion. For Rumi, soul and body and emotion are not separate but are rather part of the great mystery of mortal life, a riddle whose solution is love. Above all else, Rumi's poetry exposes us to the delight that comes from being fully alive, urging us always to put aside our fears and take the risk of discovering our core self:No one knows what makes the soul wake up so happy! Maybe a dawn breeze has blown the veil from the face of God.
These fresh, original translations magnificently convey Rumi's insights into the human heart and its longings with his signature passion and daring, focusing on the ecstatic experience of the inseparability of human and divine love. The match between Rumi's sublime poetry and Coleman Barks's poetic art are unequaled, and here this artistic union is raised to new heights.
'I think I shall be among the English Poets after my death,' John Keats soberly prophesied in 1818 as he started writing the blankverse epic Hyperion. Today he endures as the archetypal Romantic genius who explored the limits of the imagination and celebrated the pleasures of the senses but suffered a tragic early death. Edmund Wilson counted him as 'one of the half dozen greatest English writers,' and T. S. Eliot has paid tribute to the Shakespearean quality of Keats's greatness. Indeed, his work has survived better than that of any of his contemporaries the devaluation of Romantic poetry that began early in this century. This Modern Library edition contains all of Keats's magnificent verse: 'Lamia,' 'Isabella,' and 'The Eve of St. Agnes'; his sonnets and odes; the allegorical romance Endymion; and the five-act poetic tragedy Otho the Great. Presented as well are the famous posthumous and fugitive poems, including the fragmentary 'The Eve of Saint Mark' and the great 'La Belle Dame sans Merci,' perhaps the most distinguished literary ballad in the language. 'No one else in English poetry, save Shakespeare, has in expression quite the fascinating felicity of Keats, his perception of loveliness,' said Matthew Arnold. 'In the faculty of naturalistic interpretation, in what we call natural magic, he ranks with Shakespeare.'

Here is the account of a man so ravished by a kiss that it distorts his highest and lowest frequencies of understanding into an Incongruent mean of babble and brilliance...
One day, while browsing an antique store in Helena, Montana, photographer Tyler Knott Gregson stumbled upon a vintage Remington typewriter for sale. Standing up and using a page from a broken book he was buying for $2, he typed a poem without thinking, without planning, and without the ability to revise anything.
He fell in love.
Three years and almost one thousand poems later, Tyler is now known as the creator of the Typewriter Series: a striking collection of poems typed onto found scraps of paper or created via blackout method. Chasers of the Light features some of his most insightful and beautifully worded pieces of work—poems that illuminate grand gestures and small glimpses, poems that celebrate the beauty of a life spent chasing the light.
Lang Leav's evocative poetry in a gorgeous package with ribbon marker and cloth spine is an irresistible gift for any poetry lover!

Edited by John Martin, the legendary publisher of Black Sparrow Press and a close friend of Bukowski's, The Pleasures of the Damned is a selection of the best works from Bukowski's long poetic career, including the last of his never-before-collected poems. Celebrating the full range of the poet's extraordinary and surprising sensibility, and his uncompromising linguistic brilliance, these poems cover a rich lifetime of experiences and speak to Bukowski's "immense intelligence, the caring heart that saw through the sham of our pretenses and had pity on our human condition" (New York Quarterly). The Pleasures of the Damned is an astonishing poetic treasure trove, essential reading for both longtime fans and those just discovering this unique and legendary American voice.
The uninterrupted energy of Ginsberg's remarkable career is clearly revealed in this collection. Seen in order of composition, the poems reflect on one another; they are not only works but also a work. Included here are all the poems from the earlier volume Collected Poems 1947-1980, and from Ginsberg's subsequent and final three books of new poetry: White Shroud, Cosmopolitan Greetings, and Death & Fame. Enriching this book are illustrations by Ginsberg's artist friends; unusual and illuminating notes to the poems, inimitably prepared by the poet himself; extensive indexes; as well as prefaces and various other materials that accompanied the original publications.
Here, readers will find solace in works that are bracing and courageous, organized into such resonant headings as "Such As It Is More or Less" and "Let It Spill." From William Shakespeare and Walt Whitman to R. S. Gwynn and Jennifer Michael Hecht, the voices gathered in this collection will be more than welcome to those who've been struck by bad news, who are burdened by stress, or who simply appreciate the power of good poetry.

There is no one quite like Jack Gilbert in postwar American poetry. After garnering early acclaim with Views of Jeopardy (1962), he escaped to Europe and lived apart from the literary establishment, honing his uniquely fierce, declarative style, with its surprising abundance of feeling. He reappeared in our midst with Monolithos (1982) and then went underground again until The Great Fires (1994), which was eventually followed by Refusing Heaven (2005), a prizewinning volume of surpassing joy and sorrow, and the elegiac The Dance Most of All (2009). Whether his subject is his boyhood in working-class Pittsburgh, the women he has loved throughout his life, or the bittersweet losses we all face, Gilbert is by turns subtle and majestic: he steals up on the odd moment of grace; he rises to crescendos of emotion. At every turn, he illuminates the basic joys of everyday experience.
Now, for the first time, we have all of Jack Gilbert's work in one essential volume: testament to a stunning career and to his place at the forefront of poetic achievement in our time.
She is a fascinating and unique collection of interconnected poems by this multi-talented star -- and marks the beginning of an incredible and totally original artistic career.

Dinner and Dancing
We're that family. That one that has dinner together every night, at an actual table, and the adults at the table do their best to get the offspring to converse. Well, my eight-year- old daughter has no problems in the conversation area. I guess it's more accurate to say the three of us try to get Cameron to interact with us. One easy way we've found of engaging Cameron is through board games. We regularly clear the table and grab from our collection of family-friendly games which are close at hand. Some of our favorites are Uno, Sleeping Queens, Spot It and Zingo. And unlike eating salad, Cameron actually enjoys this bit of our dinner ritual. (Until we suggest playing Spoons, but that's another story.)
I was recently in our neighborhood toy store, and grabbed one of those impulse buys at the register. It was a little round box that said "Family Dinner Box of Questions." It cost around $5, and it was the best $5 I've ever spent. Inside this little box are 42 questions designed to start a conversation. There's no real winner or loser in this game. At least I don't think there is, as I never read the instructions, but instead just opened the box and started asking questions to the family. Playing this game has been an eye opening experience.
Last night, the question read was: "What is the most important lesson your parents have taught you?" My husband replied that his parents instilled in him a moral compass and a sense for what is right and wrong. I said my parents taught me the importance of family time and being together as a unit. When it was Cameron's turn to respond, he didn't even have to think about his answer. He said, "The most important thing Mom has taught me is how to ride the Metro. Now I can go places on my own. And I don't have to worry about running out of money on my Metro card because she taught me how to put more money on it using my bank card. She also taught me how to track how much money I have in the bank by putting things on that list." I wish someone had taken a picture of my face at that moment! I wanted to do the Snoopy dance on our kitchen table!
It's one thing to teach our children valuable life lessons. But when a child actually expresses gratitude and appreciation for learning that lesson … How often does that happen?
Of course, I've previously pontificated about Cameron's Metro riding capabilities. He's now better and more confident about it than I am myself. In August, I opened a checking account for Cameron and started paying him his allowance in monthly installments via online deposits. In addition to his spending money, I deposit money for his prescription co-pays and his Metro card fare. He and I went over his monthly budget, and he withdraws his weekly allowance from the ATM machine. When his inhaler counter reaches 10, he orders a refill on the phone, and picks it up on his own when it's ready. He understands when to use his debit card and when to use cash, based on the instructions I've given him. I've made a spreadsheet that is his checkbook register, and he tracks his purchases diligently. He doesn't rely on his online banking application to obtain his balance. He understands to importance of tracking his debits himself.
All these lessons are very important independent living skills. Ones, I might add, that cost a pretty penny if you're paying someone to teach them in a postsecondary environment. I'm fortunate that Cameron has taken these lessons to heart, and has made the job of teaching them to him an easy one. But the best thing by far is the fact that Cameron understands the value of these lessons, and even better, he has expressed gratitude for learning these life skills. Cue the Snoopy Dance theme.
