A fountain (from the Latin "fons" (genitive "fontis"), a source or spring) is a piece of architecture which pours water into a basin or jets it into the air to supply drinking water and/or for a decorative or dramatic effect.
Fountains were originally purely functional, connected to springs or aqueducts and used to provide drinking water and water for bathing and washing to the residents of cities, towns and villages. Until the late 19th century most fountains operated by gravity, and needed a source of water higher than the fountain, such as a reservoir or aqueduct, to make the water flow or jet into the air.
In addition to providing drinking water, fountains were used for decoration and to celebrate their builders. Roman fountains were decorated with bronze or stone masks of animals or heroes. In the Middle Ages, Moorish and Muslim garden designers used fountains to create miniature versions of the gardens of paradise. King Louis XIV of France used fountains in the Gardens of Versailles to illustrate his power over nature. The baroque decorative fountains of Rome in the 17th and 18th centuries marked the arrival point of restored Roman aqueducts and glorified the Popes who built them.
By the end of the 19th century, as indoor plumbing became the main source of drinking water, urban fountains became purely decorative. Mechanical pumps replaced gravity and allowed fountains to recycle water and to force it high into the air. The Jet d'Eau in Lake Geneva, built in 1951, shoots water 140 metres (460 ft) in the air. The highest such fountain in the world is King Fahd's Fountain in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, which spouts water 260 metres (850 ft) above the Red Sea.
The Fontaine de l'Observatoire is a monumental fountain located in the Jardin Marco Polo, south of the Jardin du Luxembourg in the 6th arrondissement of Paris, with sculpture by Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux. It was dedicated in 1874. It is also known as the Fontaine des Quatre-Parties-du-Monde, for the four parts of the world embodied by its female figures, or simply the Fontaine Carpeaux.

The Smartest Non-Smartphones
Smartphones are an expensive proposition. It has little to do with the upfront cost, though, in an age of $49 Ozones and $99 iPhone 3Gs. Instead, the killer is the required unlimited data and Web plans. They're tailored specifically for smartphones and can easily send your monthly bill over $100 if you're not careful.
Not everyone can afford that kind of cash these days. So instead, given the recent introduction of some seriously powerful feature phones, I thought I'd step through the ones that give you as much power as possible while still using lower-cost data plans. (You don't even have to sign up for any data plan, technically, although you'll want one if you're going to access the Web or check e-mail.)
AT&T Wireless
LG Xenon (AT&T Wireless)
$99.99 and up
This $99 slider is our favorite midrange AT&T phone, with a decent Web browser and the ability to work with AT&T's $15/month Data Unlimited plan. That's 15 bucks less you'll pay every month than if you went with, say, the Samsung Jack.
Sony Ericsson C905a (AT&T Wireless)
$179.99 and up
At $179, it's not particularly cheap, but you'll save on the data plans. With its 8.1-megapixel Cyber-shot-style camera and excellent music and video players, you won't be wanting for power with this one, either.
Samsung Instinct S30 (Sprint)
$99.99 and up
The Instinct S30 looks enough like an iPhone to fool onlookers into thinking you have one. Even so, the S30 is no poser. It offers much of the same music, video, photo, and messaging power as a true smartphone, but at a lower monthly cost. It's also fun to use.
Samsung Rant (Sprint)
$49.99 and up
This affordable messaging machine gives you plenty of SMS and IM capability on the go, and it's a solid voice phone to boot. Due to the slider design, it also looks like a phone when closed, despite its roomy QWERTY keyboard.
Samsung Highlight (T-Mobile)
$129.99 and up
The Highlight offers a 3.2-megapixel camera, a full touch-screen interface, and one of the most comfortable form factors available. Its Fire and Ice hues are definitely aimed at a certain (younger) demographic, but it's a powerful phone once you get past that.
T-Mobile Sidekick LX 2009 (T-Mobile)
$174.99 and up
The Sidekick LX features a super high-resolution screen, a large and comfy keyboard, and some real software firepower with its built-in Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter clients. It's still not the best e-mail machine, though.
Verizon Wireless
LG enV Touch VX11000 (Verizon Wireless)
$99.99 and up
It's tough to beat this powerhouse of a feature phone, with its flip design, hidden QWERTY keyboard, and pair of ultra high-resolution (800-by-480-pixel), 3.0-inch LCD screens. The enV Touch makes an excellent portable video player, and it even renders desktop Web sites with aplomb.
Samsung Alias 2 SCH-U750 (Verizon Wireless)
$79.99 and up
The Alias 2's amazing e-ink keyboard, which shifts and changes based on how you're using the phone, has made this phone a cult hit. The Alias also has great call quality. We won't blame Samsung for Verizon's subpar email software, but they could have installed a better Web browser.

Kyra Sedgwick snapped at Adrian Lyne During 'Flashdance' AuditionThursday, May 31, 2012
Kyra Sedgwick is known for her work as the strong-willed and vocal Deputy Chief Brenda Leigh Johnson on TNT's The Closer for seven seasons. Recently, she revealed that she actually enjoyed such vocal life when she was a newcomer actress. Recently, she was asked in an interview about her scariest moment, whether that be a challenging role, a scary audition or a nerve-wrecking scene. Sedgwick went into her past to dig the story about her audition for the 1983 film Flashdance. "My agent told me I was supposed to wear a leotard, heels and no tights," she said. "I had such bigger balls back in those days. I thought, 'I'm not wearing a leotard. Instead, I'll wear a little miniskirt and high heels.'" However, she didn't stop showing her braveness at that. During the actual audition, director Adrian Lyne's phone rang, and he picked it up. "I turned to him and said, You're not going to answer that phone call. I'm auditioning for you,'" Sedgwick said. "Today, I don't think I would ever do that." Obviously, she didn't get that role. However, she succeeded in winning a Golden Globe Award in 2007 and an Emmy Award in 2010 for her work on The Closer.

I met this morning with Jossy Chacko. His organization, Empart, has started over 4,000 house churches in north India.
His heart was broken for the poor on a train trip to see the Taj Mahal on his honeymoon. A small boy named Raju was sweeping his train car very diligently. Jossy and his wife befriended the boy and (unbelievably) invited him along on their honeymoon. Over the course of two weeks the boy shared a remarkable sagacity for one so young about things beyond his years: sex trafficking, the selling of human body parts, and other unmentionables he had already witnessed.
Jossy says the movie "Slumdog Millionaire" was under-done. Conditions for the poor in the slums of India — about 718 million people — are much worse than portrayed.
At a critical point in Jossy's life he discovered this important truth: "The only reason for me to exist is to fulfill the Great Commission."
Jossy says that Patrick Johnstone first informed him that there are more people in north India who have never heard the Gospel than any other country in the world. Further, Johnstone maintains that north India will be the touchstone of success or failure of the missions movement in the years ahead.

Denny Medley-US PRESSWIRE - Presswire
We'll be watching with particular attention today as the Crew take on the Sporks. A win for SKC would essentially guarantee United a spot in the playoffs.
Last night's unimpressive win for D.C. United over Toronto FC went a long towards assuring that United will return to the MLS playoffs for the first time in five seasons. United now only needs three points the rest of the way to clinch.
But that doesn't mean that we won't be watching the other scores anyway.
Today's Eastern Conference matchup between Sporting Kansas City and the Columbus Crew is important in a lot of ways. For United, a Columbus loss would mean that the Crew could do no better than match our point total this season, guaranteeing a playoff spot for D.C. on the Goals For tiebreaker.
But SKC capturing all three points would also give them 61 points for the season, putting first place out of reach for United. A loss by the Sporks would still give United an outside chance of winning the Eastern Conference title.
The match is at 4:00 PM today and it can be viewed on MLS Live. So join us as we root with mixed emotions both for and against Sporting Kansas City. Tell us who you're rooting for. And then join us later too if you'd like to discuss the Seattle Sounders vs. Portland Timbers match at 9:00 PM.

Shopflick: The New Video Interactive Way To Do Your Shopping!
Why is this the first time I've heard about Shopflick?! I love to shop, but always do it in-person because I enjoy the experience: seeing, touching, trying on, and viewing in the mirror at all angles. I don't enjoy shopping online, because more often than not, I find myself returning clothes that looked great in the thumbnail picture shown on the site, but awful on me. Shopflick is the first retail site I've experienced that really does a great job at meshing the in-person experience with the online experience.
You can go to Shopflick to browse through very funky, cool clothes. (Yes, even men!) It is not unlike any other retail e-commerce site at first: select a section, click on a thumbnail image of one that looks good to you, and view a detail page about that item. Normally, however, the detail pages on other retail e-commerce sites contain just a single photo with a short text description. Sometimes you can view additional close-up photos and/or change the color of the item. Shopflick takes it to the next level!
When you click on a thumbnail in Shopflick, you are taken to a detail page that will contain the photo, and a "Meet the Designer" video. This video isn't super high quality, but I think that is part of its beauty. It is a very personal video in which the designer(s) speak to you about their product line and what they try to achieve with their clothing line. It really gives you a feeling that you know the designer personally, and by understanding the craft behind the creation, there is sure to be a higher sell-thru. (Would be interested to find some stats on this!) These videos are short and sweet, encouraging you to watch all the way through. Also, on some of the products, if there is other footage on the specific product you've selected, it is included so you can view the item on an actual person from all angles. I am really impressed by Shopflick's video integration because it is very compelling to a shopper like me, and doesn't look expensive to make. (i.e. possibly shot on a handheld digital camera!)
The site also encourages you to join the community, where you can save favorite items, post comments/feedback, and even become a seller within the community. The list of designers featured on Shopflick is respectable and quite long! There is also a "Videos" section that contains series of webisodes such as Hall of Style and Kitchen Couture.
I first read about Shopflick on Mashable, and now I can't get myself off this page. I'm sure to buy a thing or two before the day ends. Because I liked their video integration so much, I thought I would explore what Shopflick is doing in terms of social media. Sure enough, they are up to date, with a Facebook page, a YouTube page, and even a MySpace page! The YouTube page features the "Fashion Designer Series" and other various fashion videos. Nothing too fancy here, but in my eyes, very innovative in the retail web space.

Hi Experts,
I am going to work for a demerger project, where in one of the business is being separated by the Parent organisation.
A new instance of SAP (different servers for DB) will be created for the demerged product line.
Want your 2 cents on :
a) Which would be an efficient and easy way to achieve this
- By mirroring the production server and archiving the non relevant product related data from all modules ?
- Copying the existing customizing and configuration into a different system/instance, and doing all the cutover activities and data migration activities.
SAP ECC 6.0 is the present system configuration.
Your valuable inputs are highly appreciated.

Micaela Schaefer Shows 'Sideboob' at 'Men in Black' Premiere: Sexy or TMI?

There's sideboob and then there's sideboob, and then there's full-on boob. And what's going on with the rest of this dress? We've never heard of Micaela Schaefer, but the German model, formerly of "Germany's Next Top Model," wore this bizarre outfit to the German "Men in Black III" premiere on Monday. And guess what? She isn't even in "Men in Black III," as far as we can tell.
The "dress," if you can call it that, appears to be little more than strands of VHS tape, along with a belt, as The Huffington Post points out. And the "skirt" reportedly blew aside to reveal her black thong.
The Post also reports that Schaefer apparently lied on "Top Model" about having shot nude photos in the past. No big surprise there ... she's practically nude now! We have to wonder ... did the "Men in Black III" marketing team pay this woman to wear this dress to draw attention to the film? It certainly worked on us. "Men in Black III" hits U.S. theaters on May 25.

Question of the Week
I purchased some good sized (3-5 gallon) blueberry plants yesterday.
I was reading the OSU extension pub EC 1304, which emphasizes heavy pruning upon planting (and removing all fruit buds to prevent berries the first year). I really want to ignore this advice because the plants have nice flowers on them now and I'm eager to get fruit this year. I thought I could ignore the recs since the plants are so big already -- at least 2 ft tall and around. Unwise?

Den indlæste side, var ikke skrevet i dit sprog. Hvad vil du foretage dig nu ?
You've got your smartphone. It's new, shiny and neat. You can go online from it while you're out and about and download cool apps to keep you company whenever you get bored. But can you download any app you want? What about custom themes? And did you ever feel like altering or replacing system applications and settings on your phone because they're not so user friendly? Well, the thing is you can't do whatever you want with your smartphone. For security reasons, phone manufacturers and mobile network operators impose software limitations. However, these limitations can be overruled by rooting your Android phone, although it is not advisable. Especially if you don't have antivirus for Android installed, to protect you from mobile malware.
A lot of people are talking about the freedom rooting your phone gives you, without necessarily stressing the risks you face by doing so. Here's a brief overview of the advantages and disadvantages of this process. In case you decide to go for it, it's best you take an informed decision for your own mobile security.
First off, what's rooting?
Rooting is a process that allows you to attain root access to the Android operating system code (the equivalent term for Apple devices id jailbreaking). It gives you privileges to modify the software code on the device or install other software that the manufacturer wouldn't normally allow you to. And for good mobile security reasons: they don't want users to make modifications to the phones that could result in accidents beyond repair; it is easier for them to offer support if they allow users to only use the same unmodified version of the software. But tech savvy users have already developed rooting methods, which vary depending on device. They are available on the web, and more and more Android users are resorting to them because of the powerful perks they provide, such as:
But if you do it improperly, it can create havoc. And even done properly, if your phone doesn't have proper antivirus protection for Android, rooting leaves your device open to all sorts of malware.
With great power comes great responsibility
Now, say all these advantages have convinced you to root your Android device. But you can do it at your own expense, risking your own mobile security. Here's why:

The Hawza: Najaf's Shia theological school
In this report we head to the Iraqi city of Najaf. 160km south of Baghdad, it's Shia Islam's third holy city after Mecca and Medina. France 24 toured the Hawza, the city's theological school, where scholars spend up to 25 years immersed in Shia theology. They witnessed an institution that is shining once more, following the fall of Saddam Hussein. Report by Karim Hakiki, Amar Al Hameedawi
The sky darkens as we arrive in Najaf, the result of a giant sandstorm. As day turns to night, the famous mausoleum of Imam Ali is hidden from view. Pilgrims, who've come from all over the world, take refuge inside the great mosque.
It's a city within a city, tightly protected by the Iraqi army. To enter, you have to pass through three security control points. Attacks against Shia Muslims are frequent ,and the sandstorm has made the soldiers nervous. Once inside the mausoleum, we come across thousands of pilgrims who live, sleep and eat on site. It's well-organized, men on one side women on the other.
Najaf, one of the most important Shia pilgrimage sites, is also the centre of Shia political power in Iraq. The influence of Iran is evident everywhere -- from the millions of visitors who cross the border each year, to the imported merchandise on sale at the market. Trade too is dominated by Iranians, in a city which looks increasingly towards Tehran, rather than Baghdad.

The video error. The Hawza: Najaf's Shia theological school
by Anonyme - 08/09/2012 - 00:14
The video that you have aired on France 24 where you say that the Shi'ites are more likely to 'WORSHIP' Sayyid Ali Sistani than to admire Jalal Talabani. Shi'ites do not worship Sayyid Ali Sistani in the first place and I am offended but what you have said. We worship God alone and none other than God.

PASS - Peer Assisted Study Sessions
PASS is a program that supports you in your study of courses. PASS consists of one-hour non-compulsory weekly sessions where students work collaboratively. Each session is facilitated by PASS Leaders; students who have excelled in the course in the past. PASS sessions focus on developing deeper learning of course material and enhancing your learning skills. Attending PASS sessions will help you to become a more efficient and effective learner.
Background to PASS
PASS originated in a program created by Deanna C. Martin, Ph.D, at the University of Missouri-Kansas City in 1973, called supplemental instruction or SI. Dr. Martin was assigned the task initially, of decreasing the attrition rate of minority students in the schools of medicine, pharmacy, and dentistry.
SI and PASS operate internationally and have centres in the United States, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, the United Kingdom, Mexico, South Africa and Sweden.
For more information about PASS in the Faculty of Business and Law, please consult the following pages or contact the PASS team.
Not a Business and Law student? You can find the full range of PASS that the University of Newcastle has to offer here.

Paul Teasdale
Finding a New Calling
Tester Spotlight
- Location: United Kingdom
- Specialty: Load, Usability, Functional; Web & Mobile
- Experience: 2 years
- Languages: English
Paul Teasdale spent 10 years in the insurance industry before he decided to start over and follow his longtime dream of becoming a software developer. Then he found uTest.
"I heard about the uTest community when searching on the Internet for practical ways I could put what I was learning in my computing degree to good use," Paul said. "I always imagined I would be involved in the development side of things, but uTest has turned my main focus towards testing. I got involved in a project early on, sent off my first bug report with some trepidation and, like a man with a broken neck, never looked back since."
During his first test cycle Paul developed his method of patience and dedication in his pursuit of bugs. Paul only accepts test cycles when he has time to dedicate to the project and thoroughly reads the test scope and previously logged bugs to ensure he produces quality work. In addition to ensuring he doesn't submit duplicate bugs, Paul finds reading each tester's submissions a great way to pick up future testing tips. But having a clean slate is his favorite testing scenario.
"I probably enjoy the web testing most of all, particularly where the out of scope section just says no duplicates," he said. "A free run at a previously untested site gives you a real chance as a tester to flex your muscles and show what you have got."
Paul's thorough dedication to his new industry earned him a 2011 uTester of the Year Award and he credits uTest with setting him on a new path through life.
"Software testing was not on my immediate radar until I came across uTest but now I can safely say it is a real big part of my working life," he said. "The uTest community also provides a great opportunity to tap into a vast wealth of knowledge from experts all over the world."
In their own words...
On Being a Test Team Lead:
"I love being in the Team Lead Role which I find gives you a real sense of ownership of a project and an added determination to ensure that no bugs get through."
About Paul:
"I'm a lifelong fan of Manchester City Football Club (soccer to you guys over the pond) and try to attend games whenever possible. I am also a big lover of cricket. I love fine ale in traditional country pubs, drinking cocktails at sunset on any number of Greek Islands, discovering new music and listening to old favourites, reading truly great literature, long walks in the Peak District, and most of all I love the company of my long suffering wife and being teacher, pupil and playmate to my two children."

Welcome to PACT
Reduce, reuse, recycle... your socks. These socks are made from yarns that are left over from the manufacturing of other socks. We gather up the left over yarns and spin them all together and make new yarn. Cool huh? Manufactured in a factory powered by 100% wind power, PACT socks make the world a better place once step at a time.
90% cotton (from recycled yarns) / 7% nylon / 3% lycra. No pesticides, no fertilizers, no bleaches, no sweatshops, no nasty stuff at all.
Machine washable. One size fits all. And we promise these are just as soft as our organic cotton socks.
PACT drove across the country meeting amazing young entrepreneurs starting mission-driven organizations. Our first stop was Austin, Texas, where we discovered that even CHANGE is bigger in Texas. From empowering the homeless to changing the face of new media, we were impressed with this state's swagger. But it was hunky farmer Mason Arnold who inspired PACT to support the Sustainable Food Center this fall and provide families in low-income communities access to healthy local food. This was one cause we could really sink our teeth into.
You change your underwear. Together, we change the world.

What a difference two years can make in the number of health-care professionals practising in Saskatchewan. According to Health Indicators 2013, a report released earlier this week by the Canadian Institute for Health Information, Saskatchewan had 38 dentists per 100,000 people in 2011 compared to the national average of 60 dentists per 100,000 residents.
Saskatchewan's demographics has played a major role in the province's D grade in its overall health, say researchers.
Battling brutal winds on Wednesday, Bill Werthmann continued his push to complete a gruelling 6,850-kilometre ride across Canada in memory of his beloved 20-year-old daughter Hillary, whom he lost to suicide.
Fewer and fewer medical specialists are remaining in Saskatchewan after they graduate.
A health report card gives Saskatchewan high marks for a low number of colorectal and breast cancer deaths, but the province gets a D for having one of the country's highest mortality rates for prostate cancer.
Saskatchewan women who are eligible to be genetically tested for breast cancer can expect to wait up to three years to see the province's only medical geneticist and get test results.
This week, for the 28th time since six-year-old Carter Brown was seven weeks old, he and his parents, Jennifer and Mike Brown from Milestone, packed their bags for Montreal.
Saskatchewan scientists are being touted as the first in the world to adapt existing technology to create a new way to test for infectious diseases at the Saskatchewan Disease Control Laboratory (SDCL) in Regina. Using BioMark equipment, the lab can take a tiny sample and test it for multiple infectious diseases. BioMark's use in the health sector is a world first.
There is an upbeat mood among Saskatchewan's medical movers and shakers these days. Slowly but surely, it appears the province might be turning the corner in keeping Saskatchewan-educated doctors.
An 84-year-old La Ronge woman suffering from cancer says she had to recuperate from a broken foot in a shelter for battered women because there was no acute or long-term care space for her in the area. Barbara Blyth was recovering at home with the help of home care until her furnace quit. While waiting several days for parts to get it fixed, she couldn't stay at home — and she ended up in the women's shelter because there was no bed for her in acute or long-term care, she said.
Construction is expected to take off this spring on Saskatchewan's first permanent helipad on the roof of the Regina General Hospital. "We're pretty excited about this next step in the program," said Doug Line, a director in the acute and emergency services branch of the Ministry of Health. "It is going to be an important overall benefit to the service we have. In the next few weeks, our goal is to have a much more full announcement when the weather is a little better and we've got a few more details finalized."
To many on the outside, Ailey Korneychuk's life likely seemed blessed. On the inside, the young woman's world was far from perfect. A former resident of Emerald Park, Korneychuk took home the 2010 title of Miss Teen Saskatchewan and travelled to Poland in the summer of 2011 to represent Canada in Miss Supranational 2011. But instead of taking home the title, Korneychuk took away something entirely different — the beginnings of the realization that something was seriously wrong.

NAD! Blackheart BH15
I ended up finding a deal that was too good to pass up: a Blackheart BH15 combo for $199! I haven't had a chance to put it through its paces yet, but initially I'm incredibly pleased. This is my first tube amp, upgrading from a Vox Pathfinder 15, and it's similar enough to keep me satisfied with the base clean tones while the gain stages take off from there with nice fullness and complexity. I'd been eyeballing a Nighttrain and I'm very glad I went with the blackheart instead; I feel like the entire range is usable from clean to dirty whereas I wasn't impressed with the gain on the nighttrain. The BH15 doesn't seem to get very dirty, but I typically like something just on the edge of breakup so it suits me fine.
I've looked at the bitmo mods for the blackheart line, but I don't see too many reviews for them. I'm loving the stock sounds so far, but I'm curious if anyone has any feedback on the mods (adding reverb sounds pretty cool). |
I just typed "bitmo bh-5 review" into Google and watched a couple of vids and read a few reviews. Looks good!
The blackheart stuff is fantastic. After owning every model at some point, I would say the bh15 is my favorite. Throw in a set of JJ's and a decent speaker and you have a really solid little amp. There are several mods available, but after I modded my 5-watter, I really didn't think there was a huge difference. The speaker and tube swap are much more noticeable and certainly cheaper and easier.
I'm just two people short of a threesome. |
Thanks for the feedback! If the mods make no real difference, then I'll just let it alone... ish. I've since found out that I get a bit of tube rattle when I turn it up past bedroom volumes, so I'll be taking a look inside to see if there's anything I can do about that. Luckily, the other guitarist I've been playing with is a full-time guitar tech for an internationally known band, so I imagine he's accustomed to dealing with these sorts of problems. Also, I happened to mention to my girlfriend that tube amps contain lethal voltages and she made me pinky swear not to open it up and poke around until I'm with someone who knows what they're doing.
I'm not breaking a pinky swear. That's some bad karma, that is.
Rig: Reverend Roundhouse RT.Joyo Ultimate Drive.Digitech Bad Monkey.NYC Big Muff PI.Digitech Hardwire DL8.Blackheart Handsome Devil |
Well, this is interesting and somewhat disheartening. Today, I took my amp apart with my friend the tech, and we were unable to isolate the source of the rattle. We removed the amp from the chassis, plugged it in and heard a sound similar to rattling glass when I played. We took out and swapped around tubes and cleaned out the contacts with zero improvement, until he was completely satisfied that it was not the tubes rattling. He used something to apply slight pressure to just about every component on the board to see if he could find the rattle and nothing helped. Then he noticed that the transformer was not sitting flush and theorized that the amp had taken a fall at some point before it got to me, and our current guess is that whatever is rattling might be inside the transformer! Although, we're still not even sure about that. Luckily, it's not really audible at full band volume and I still love the sound otherwise; just kind of a bummer that it seems like it's not going to be fixed without some more in depth surgery.

An Amityville man was sentenced to 10 years in prison Tuesday for causing a 2011 crash on the Southern State Parkway that severely injured a Nassau County Police officer, the Nassau District Attorney's office announced.
Louie Blanton, 24, pleaded guilty in January to aggravated assault upon a police officer, second degree unlawful fleeing a police officer in a motor vehicle and third degree criminal possession of a weapon.
The female officer, who remains unable to work, attempted to pull Blanton over just after noon on Nov. 21, 2011 after reports of a suspicious vehicle on North Pine Street in North Massapequa.
Blanton fled eastbound onto the Southern State, touching off a high-speed chase. During the pursuit, Blanton slammed on his brakes near the Route 110 exit in Farmingdale, forcing the patrol car to swerve and crash into a guard rail before being struck by another vehicle.
Let Patch save you time. Get great local stories like this delivered right to your inbox or smartphone everyday with our free newsletter. Simple, fast sign-up here.
"Assaults like this are a reminder of the danger that police officers willingly place themselves in every day," Nassau DA Kathleen Rice said. "The severity of this crash and the violence inflicted upon this officer cannot be overstated, nor can her bravery and the quality of the police work that led to Louie Blanton's capture."
Blanton on Feb. 29, 2012. He was sentenced Tuesday by Nassau Judge Jerald Carter.
The officer suffered a fractured spine, collapsed lung, fractured ribs and fractures to her sternum, collarbone, shoulder blade and nasal bone.
"She is fortunate to be alive," Police Chief Steven Skrynecki said last March of the injured 20-year veteran of the Seventh Precinct.

Once of the best things about Kas is that it is relatively undiscovered. This does not mean that there is nothing to do here though. If you enjoy scuba diving, there are several excellent spots in the Mediterranean that are easy to get to, and several dive companies in the area who can take you on a guided dive. Also within easy reach of your Kas hotel, you can go hiking, kayaking, cycling, and even paragliding.
Kas lies mid way between Dalman Airport, and Antalya Airport. Both airports provide excellent flight connections to Europe. Once you arrive, you have a few choices for transport to your hotel in Kas. The fastest method is to use a taxi, although, this is also the most expensive. You can book a shuttle bus through your hotel, or take a local bus. The local buses are the cheapest, but also the slowest as they stop in every little village along the way.

The Master of Arts in Teaching English to Speakers of other Languages is designed to prepare teachers for careers in teaching English as a second or foreign language in the United States or abroad. Students study the formal aspects of language, its acquisition and use, and gain knowledge and experience in current theories, approaches, and methods of language teaching and language assessment.
Admission Requirements
Regular Admission:
To be admitted to the M.A. TESOL program, a student must have an undergraduate major or minor in English, Linguistics, Language Arts, Reading or a Foreign Language with a grade point average of at least 3.0 on a four-point scale and a cumulative grade point average of at least 3.0. Applicants with TOEFL scores of 213 CBT, 550 PBT, or 79 IBT and above, IELTS scores of 6.5 and above, or a MELAB score of 78 or higher, may be granted regular admission. Some programs, however, require higher TOEFL scores and others require all admitted international students to take an English proficiency test after arriving on campus. Applicants with majors in areas not related to language will be considered on an individual basis. In addition, two years of college foreign language study (or its equivalent) are required.
Conditional Admission:
Applicants with TOEFL scores from 173 to 210 CBT, 500 to 549 PBT, or 61-78 IBT, IELTS scores of 5.5 or 6, or MELAB scores ranging from 69-77 may be granted conditional admission. Upon arrival at the university, they will be required to take an English proficiency test administered by CMU's English Language Institute (ELI). The results of the test will be used to determine the number of courses they will be required to take through the ELI. Such conditionally admitted students will be allowed to take a restricted number of courses in their academic disciplines concurrently with the ELI courses and must complete all required ELI courses by the end of their first year at CMU. Once satisfactory proficiency in English has been demonstrated, as determined by ELI policies these restrictions will be removed. Please note that students are required to pay tuition for ELI courses just as they would for any other CMU course.
Degree Requirements Students must complete 30 semester hours, 24 hours in core courses, and 6 hours in electives. Students must pass a comprehensive examination. A Plan B paper is required.
For more information about degree requirements, visit the CMU Academic Bulletins.

This is a compilation of Addons made by various people. All acknowledgements for the individual Addons go to their respective authors.
Hi, here's how my interface looks like.

Pretty light in memory bandwidth(Around 50MB) There's almost every classic feature you can find in a classic UI.

I configured all the addons in order to be beautifully displayed and readable BUT performant... http://www.filefactory.com/file/b0dah2b/n/Mu_UI.rar Here's the link for the pack configuration !

- Threat meter / Bars - Damage meter Using Omen for the meter and tidy plates for the bars

- Debuff tracker With forteXorcist

- Group/Raid Interface Using Vuhdo (Buff tracking mouseover Buffing/healing)

- Screen text font personalisation Using fontain + the font I included in my settings archive

I havent't made a screenshot in a true RAID so you won't be able to see any of the warning BigWigs gives you, but I you want to see what it looks like you can check big wigs on curse.

I added some comfort addons like :

- Auto repair / Auto sell grey objects (Selljunk and autorepair + FuBar)

- A button that auto throw away the cheapest grey item (DropTheCheapestThing)

- A Bag manager Using ArkInventory in order to sort your bag items to save some precious time !

- An alt tracker (Bag content, recipes, etc...)witch is the well known Altoholic

Also as U can see, the blizzard option bar and the mounts are on the left of the screen and are mouse sensitive, this way it doesn't show up until you put your mouse on it ! Another way to save some space :p

I also integrated Threatbars, this way the ennemy nameplate displays GREEN if you HAVE the mob on you, and RED if the mob is on anybody else (Of course if you are in a DPS situation, this works RED when you have the mob and green when he is on the tank) I hope you'll enjoy this UI. Don't forget if you have any questions just send me a PM I'll be pleased to answer your questions !

P.S : Excuse my english I French :p

Why BuzzFeed's photo spat with Reddit could be just the tip of the iceberg
BuzzFeed has been criticized for taking images from other sites such as Reddit without giving credit to the original creator — something that the web's "remix culture" is making more and more difficult. But BuzzFeed's desire to create sponsored content makes it more important than ever. Read more »

April 4, 2013 in Uncategorized
We all need it, some form of closure in our life, a chapter that needs an ending, an experience left in the past with a good or bad feeling, hopefully mostly good.
This blog has brought me a bit of everything, joy, sadness, envy of some sort, moments that I thought, woah, what, how, why?! And best of all, laughing moments, where things people said or did left me giggling till tears flowed out of my eyes. I have enjoyed and embraced each moment, each emotion. The time has come for me to close this chapter of my life, and because I couldn't leave it hanging, I had to write one last blog post for this blog, mostly for myself to say, this is it, I can now close this book of blogging and end it with a chapter which did not leave everyone hanging.
Life has been great, throwing us some hectic curveballs, but we will have to deal with it as it comes, all I can say is that, the TTC journey is a hard one that needs to be filled with a LOT OF PATIENCE. Please pray for us, our journey has taken some unexpected tumbles, ones which I sometimes wonder if we will ever get up from it, but in the end we still believe, and we will till the end, keep on believing.
I have my reasons for closing my blog, but a lot of cons will one day bring me back to starting up a blog again, for now, I cannot carry on with this blog, these emotions, inside it has been killing me slowly and no amount of trying to let people out there in the universe understand how I feel has helped, it has only let me retract more and question myself more about what I put out there, and that is not what blogging was and is about for me. I have met some dear people over the years of blogging, some who made me become a better person than who I was, lessons learned from others life experiences, and this is why I can now say, that I've been there, done that, got an awesome t-shirt from it.
I know this post is all over the place, which is why it is better to just say goodbye, ciao for now, totsiens and thank you, thank you to each and every one of you, you and you and you, have all made a difference in my life, thank you.

I purchased this Federal sack coat off this forum a couple of months ago and it's just a little too large for me. It is in fantastic shape and is well made. The original description is:
A once worn blue federal sack coat made with Charlie Childs wool flannel material by Mark Wallace of Wabash and Eerie Mercantile. It has hand sewing throughout and is lined. Size 46 chest.
The size is true as I'm a 44, and like I said, this coat is just a little too large for me. My loss is your gain. I'm looking to get close to what I paid for it...$145 shipping included.
