Matthew Weier O'Phinney, the Zend Framework (ZF) Project Leader, announced the plans for the upcoming Zend Framework 3. Some of the things that are in the pipeline for Zend Framework 3 are:
- Separating components into individual, versioned projects. This enables broader re-use and higher velocity of innovation.
- Strong emphasis on HTTP messages, with Matthew leading the PSR-7 specification.
- Updating our existing full-stack MVC framework to depend on the newly independent components for better reuse and simplicity. ZF2 MVC applications will have a documented upgrade path to ZF3 requiring minimal changes.
- Embracing middleware runtime patterns as a lighter weight alternative to the enterprise MVC framework stack.
- Enabling Apigility to work as a middleware stack, for better performance and simplicity, with the same streamlined, powerful user experience.
- Optimizing for PHP 7, but supporting PHP 5.5 onwards.
In addition Andi Gutmans said: "The community has been looking for clear direction and we are giving it. ".
Stay tuned for more details and examples on the future Zend Framework 3.

A/N:Summary: Buffy's thoughts in Romeand about some people in her life. Relationships: Buffy/Immortal, Buffy/Spike, Buffy/Angel, Buffy&Faith.
Other fics coming soon.
The Last Few Moments Before She Knew They Faded
She saw her room. Butterflies on the wall, sunshine coming in the windows. Time to be school-Buffy. Vamps can't come out to play. Mom will come in soon. "Come on, Buffy. Get up. The early bird gets the worm. Well, I guess that's not much incentive, is it? The early girl gets the pancake is better."
An empty unpoppable bubble filled her chest. She really didn't want to get out of bed. She realized life couldn't be fixed by pancakes long ago. Buffy all grown. Mom gone. Mom gone.
Funny, Buffy thought she would be a cooler grown-up. She rolled over and opened her eyes and saw her lover's tan muscular back. She looked at the blank stone walls of her new awesome place. Buffy smiled. Okay, she was a pretty cool grown-up. She just thought she'd be a happier one. No, that wasn't it. More settled. Weren't grown-ups supposed to feel settled? That was a long way away, if ever, and probably not with this guy. She frowned. Better not need a guy to feel settled or you would probably feel sea sick all your life. Mom didn't need a guy. Though, she had started dating that guy right before…
Buffy reached out and gently touched her boyfriend's ear. Then she clasped the silver-ringed ear-ring between her fingers. He shouldn't sleep with this in. He could get an infection; even if he was immortal he wasn't a vampire. He still had a living, breathing, sexy, sweaty, hot hot heart beating body that could get infections, right? He reached up and smacked her hand as she tried to take the earring out. She laughed.
"I believe there are laws against stealing other people's jewelry while they sleep. Even if they lay in your own bed," he grumbled good naturedly.
"Are you sure there are laws like that in this country? I've been driving with you and it seems like you pretty much can do whatever you want," she sighed cheerily, as she rolled him over and lay on his chest.
"This country is the pinnacle of sophistication, Amore. Empires, treaties, and doctrines came to be and crumpled while your America was still a swamp land," he said as he kissed the top of her head.
Dawn was right. If the sun hit his eyes just right they were the color of Christmas.
"Yeah, yeah. We've all seen that gladiator movie that won all the awards. They also used to feed people to lions, so much for your pinnacle," she rolled her eyes.
"The lion is an extremely sophisticated animal. It watches and waits until it gets its prey. Do you know, Amore for centuries scholars thought it was the lion that caught the finest prey? Not true, but they are the ones that enjoy it. The lion was just waiting to take the meat at its best time, while the fool cheetah did all the work and had to handle all the unpleasant killing and pain," he scrunched up his face in that I-find-this-unseemly way.
"It sounds like the lion is a lazy jerk. I thought it was the lioness that did all the killing," she said.
"That is true too," he said.
"Typical, at least the hunt can be fun," Buffy sighed.
"Is this not fun, Amore? Do you wish to have more to kill? I can arrange it," he said.
He unscrunched his face to reveal those rich green eyes. Hot. Totally hot. His eyes had a clearness about them. They weren't all filled with pain and asking. He was the only person that never asked anything of her or took anything that she didn't want to fully give. It was okay that she didn't love him completely, that she wasn't sure. There were no painful long looks or mixed lectures about how he wanted her so much, but this wasn't a fairytale. No sighs that hinted she didn't love him enough. There were no snappy insults about all the pain and suffering she had put him through.
"No, no," she sighed happily, "This total lack of kill is fine by me, and fun is always at a record high with you."
She lowered her head to kiss him again. Yes, fun, that was what she wanted to do now, after all the hard work of world saving and growing up. There seemed to be time now. Oh yeah, there were a few things to worry about—it wasn't as if running an army of Slayers was a picnic. But, with this being the biggest gathering of Slayers here in Rome, it was surprising how much less there was to worry about. They were all good Slayers, the one hundred and forty one of them. Buffy was so grateful there was no big bad bitch in the bunch.
Well, actually there were one hundred and forty three Slayers now, but that was only temporary. It was easy to forget about Kennedy and Faith because they weren't in The Slayer School, and besides they weren't staying. Willow was accepted at Oxford and Kennedy would surely go with her, and Faith, well Faith wasn't staying. Buffy didn't even know why she was here. She suspected that things had fallen apart between Faith and Robin Wood, and that was why she showed up. Or maybe Kennedy told her she was coming and Faith decided to visit as well. Kennedy made it no secret which original Slayer she preferred. That was okay; she was still helpful. Kennedy had taken over some of the training classes that Buffy found boring to teach. Kennedy was also encouraging Faith to do the same thing. She rejected the idea in her Faith-like way:
"No thanks. Those who can't do teach, and I am a doer. I don't want to wake-up one day and find that I turned into some A-hole Watcher stabbing my girls in the back."
Buffy wanted to remind Faith that Buffy was a teacher and she was also a doer, and that Faith's Watcher only stabbed her in the back because she had stabbed first—literally.
Well, Faith didn't literally stab Wesley first, she stabbed someone else, but she did eventually stab him too, right? Not that Buffy thought that Wesley was so great, but didn't Faith think he was so great now? The way Buffy heard it Faith and Wesley were like best friends who decided it would be great fun to play around with Angel's mind and soul. Not that they did it without Angel saying it was okay, but Buffy didn't know where Angel's head was at when it was doing its decision making anyway. But, it was all very confusing, so that was why Buffy decided to keep her mouth shut when Faith professed her dislike of teaching.
So, one hundred and forty three Slayers and not one big bad bitch among them, at least not too big or bad anymore anyway. So, that left time for the fun that Buffy had always wanted.
"Yes, fun," her lover said, "That is what you needed to find."
Buffy looked down at her new dark haired round eyed boy, and frowned.
"You sound like Faith," Buffy said.
He put a pillow over his face and groaned into it, that wasn't the first time she had seen him do that but not when it had anything to do with Faith.
Buffy felt her forehead knot-up.
"Ever since the other chosen one has come to town all you've done is fret!" he peaked out from the pillow and slid it back over his face.
"What?" she felt her lower lip jut out, "I have not fretted. Fretting is not something I do anymore. Actually, I've never fretted. That's something that women did in the civil war in their big hoop dresses; I think it went out with fainting."
"I don't know why you worry about the other chosen one; it's apparent that she admires you. Maneuver the situation with her correctly and she can be a valuable asset," he said.
"And I am definitely not about to faint that you are sticking up for a pretty girl with big---Trust me, she does not admire me!" Buffy snorted, "What are you talking about? Maneuver? Asset? She's not a chest piece. I mean a chess piece."
"Someone here is interested in the other chosen one's breasts," he laughed.
His perfect white teeth shined in the morning rays. Buffy wondered how often she had been with a guy in direct sunlight
"Would you stop calling her--- You are interested in her--- Oh. Oh! Ew! You wish," she shrieked.
"It is very natural, these feelings. You are connected, some may say, from the same bosom," he laughed.
Great. Just what she deserved, someone like her that was good with puns. She put the pillow back over his face tightly as he laughed. He reached up and grabbed her wrists and flipped her over gently but firmly. He didn't do it like a human boy would, not like Riley. Riley. There was someone she hadn't thought of in ages. But, her new boy was like Riley in that she really had no idea what he was physically capable of. (Well, she didn't know what he was physically capable of in a fighting way.) But, this wasn't fighting this was lover's play. Still, she could tell by the way he handled her that he wasn't human, or really, more than human. He didn't handle her like Angel. For all the touching that her and Angel did they never rough-housed. Angel is such a gentleman; he might still be. Her new boyfriend handled her like--- He handled her like Spike.
"Amore, I'm joking. Don't be angry. I think the other—I think she is garish, and not too bright, and any more than a mouthful is a waste," he said seriously.
"A mouthful of wha--- Oh," she sighed and rolled her eyes.
For some reason she found she was frowning at other things in that sentence. It wasn't because she wasn't sure what garish meant, it meant tacky. He called Faith tacky, and that was accurate and maybe even not a bad thing. But, what was that other thing he said about her? He often said a lot to keep her reeling, but there was nothing he said that should ever piss her off. He was no Spike. He never said the slightest thing to hurt her feelings. The stuff he said in bed—Wow: She was a goddess, beauty in carnet, everything he was always looking for, the woman that every poet has written about or singer has sung about.
Spike would say stuff like that too, but then he'd always put a twist on it. Sure she was what every singer sung about with Spike but that included Eminem and Sid Vicious. Spike had some kind of Madonna-Whore-Squish-Together-Complex, this guy didn't have. Nope, nobody had talked a better game than this guy
This guy could talk about not being worthy of fucking her, but he never lost a step in acting like he was worthy of it. Angel really acted like he wasn't worthy and that was well…too much, too many feelings. She wanted to prove to him that he was worthy or something, while he did nothing because he was so sure he wasn't. Wasn't that all ass-backwards? At least this guy went to all the trouble of getting her.
Buffy knew Angel had gone through Hell to get her, literally. Too bad he wasn't interested in doing that to keep her. She wished she didn't have to think of Angel any more or at least think the things she was thinking about him. That was why this guy was better. She didn't have to think. Buffy was pretty sure he meant the things he said, at least when he was saying them. That was the thing about Angel; he would always mean the things he said, even if he was never going to say them again. Even if he had turned into some morally ambiguous corporate guy and Spike was his, his whatever. Spike. Spike always meant the things he said—all of them, and he'd keep saying them. How the hell a person could say so much and mean all of it, Buffy would never know.
Spike didn't like Angel. Angel didn't like Spike. Spike and Angel were working together in some weird way. This was like one of those trick logic questions on the SAT. What the fuck? Were they doing this just to piss her off? To wait to see how long it took her to go out there?
Well, she wasn't going there. She was finally done with drama and guys together. She kept them in two separate rooms, or two separate countries. Andrew said that both Angel and Spike had shown up looking for her—together. She was pretty sure the little twerp was kidding. He thought he knew her well enough to joke with her like that.
It would be just like Andrew to try to become buddy-buddy with her after doing that mission that involved both Spike and Angel. He was wrong. Buffy was glad to be through with all that. That was why she sent Andrew to deal with Angel rather than Xander. Life was much easier now, or complex in an easy way. If she went there they'd probably want her to choose one of them to live with forever and ever or until she started to look too mom-like and it creeped them out. So, she wasn't going there because if she went now she'd want both. Not both! Neither---the answer was neither. And they would just have to deal with that as they sold stocks and bonds and killed evil demon lawyers or made deals with them or whatever.
"You think about them all the time, don't you?" her new guy asked.
He actually had been kissing her when she had sunk back into the white cloudy goodness of the new Laura Ashley comforter just to stare over and out the window to all the clean stone white buildings with brown roofs.
"I—I don't think about them that much. It's just—,"Buffy felt her face flush.
"It's just that you are a protective mother hen with all of them. The first time I saw you I thought you looked like a sweet Madonna, if the Madonna ever wore leg warmers," he said.
"I think she did. Those leg warmers are a little too eighties, aren't they? Oh, you don't mean that Madonna, do you? You're saying I think about the other Slayers all the time. I guess I do."
"Sweet virgin mother," he said and kissed her.
"Bleh!" she said and wiggled away, "Note to self, Italian guys have a creepy Catholic thing. I'm not a virgin!"
"And for this I thank God, but they are all your children. You gave birth to all of them, no?" he asked.
Sometimes the vaguest hint of Italian accent would come out, even though he spoke something like fifteen languages perfectly.
"No!" Buffy felt her nose scrunch up, "Look, there was a line. I was just one in the line is all. I'm not their mother. Willow just made it so all of the girls that were Potential Slayers in the line became Slayers. So, if anything Willow is their mother. Let me explain—"
"You're sister, and the English man they already explained. When they came to my office to ask for the funding. They brought charts. It was all very boring. This isn't what caused me to donate to your cause. It was you. You're beauty, you're will, you're story…"
"My refusal. I think I was the only girl to ever say 'no.' to you with the way you wore me down. You couldn't handle it," she laughed.
"You were the only one of them I really wanted. I knew you were a creature that like to be chased. I didn't care if I had to get my whole corporation to work on it; I wasn't going to let you go without a fight," he said.
Buffy knew that she was looking past the hotness that was him and out her sky-light again. Beautiful creature, corporation and fight were the words that stuck in her head.
"One-hundred and forty-four," Buffy said to the blue-sky.
"It was about that many days, yes. I think saving you from the Gormongast is what did it. He was a decent ally, too bad he also liked to use the sweat shop workers for clothing and food. You realize, I knew nothing of this before, Amore," he said.
"No, there are one hundred and forty-four Slayers here. I always forget the one that we took from Angel. The one that cut-up Spike," Buffy whispered, "Some Mother. I never even laid eyes on her. I tried to go last week. You know who was there?"
"The psychiatrist that I referred to you?"
"No, well yes, but Faith was there too. They were fighting. I know I should have stopped it but, they were talking too. Something about peace," she said.
"The other chosen one and the doctor were arguing about peace?" he asked.
"No, Faith and the crazy Slayer. Maybe I should talk to her. I wouldn't really know what to say. I don't talk crazy. I didn't know she talked any kind of sense," Buffy said.
"I didn't know either. When ever I hear her talk she seems to be swearing or saying something equally boring as if we all haven't been in some kind of coma or jail," he said coyly.
"Not Faith, you dope," she smacked him; "I still can't believe what she did to Spike. I still can't believe Angel wanted to keep her. I still can't believe Spike is with Angel. I still can't believe Angel wanted to keep Spike. You're sure his hands are back on, right?"
"You had to know that the vampire wouldn't want to give the sick Slayer over to you without a fight, or you wouldn't have sent those other Slayers with Andrew," he said.
"I just can't believe Angel would put her in a room where she wouldn't be able to feel anything. I know you had reliable sources but--" Buffy said quietly.
"I know that's what they do to sick people at Wolfram and Hart," he said.
"Still that doesn't mean that Angel would do that to her," she said.
"I received reports that he did in fact send someone---"he began.
"Okay, what did I say about that? Don't wanna know. How exactly do you get these reports?" she said.
"Oh, if it's him you don't want to know, and if it's me you must?" he said gently.
Gently enough to not sound like Spike at all.
"No, I trust you. A lot more than I trust a lot of other CEOs anyway," she said.
"And you're wise to do so. You aren't one to make the same mistake twice," he said.
"No, never," Buffy said.
She just made a whole bunch of different ones all the time. Oh boy, she couldn't wait to see which one she made next. Hopefully, there would be no more dying involved. It would probably be something with a guy, this guy.
Buffy heard her phone ring. She only had a cell now. It was playing "London Calling," so that meant it was Giles. Yes, she was all hip with the ring tones now. She went on the internet and found the perfect song for Giles. She endured teasing from Faith for not knowing who "The Clash" was. Faith said Buffy didn't use Spike for all she could have because Faith was sure that was something the boy could have taught her. Buffy had responded by telling Faith that Spike wasn't a boy, he was a Champion and she didn't need to use guys to teach her things, and besides, wasn't The Clash like a million years old, like Giles music? She thought she responded to that really well.

Birthday Horoscope for January 14thIf your Birthday is January 14 and your Zodiac Sign is Capricorn
Birthday Persona Profile
People born specifically on the 14th of January are clever, independent and full of ambition like a typical Capricorn. However as the ruling astrological planet for this particular day is Mercury it creates personalities that are also highly communicative and observant. If you have this birthday you are practical and hardworking like the Goat in your zodiac sign but you will have an extra sharp and creative mind. Your high level of communication skills fits perfectly with your self expressive nature and you are the kind of person that is never usually lost for words. Individuals with a January the fourteenth birthday are easily bored and so need plenty of variety in their life. You are great at spotting opportunities and can efficiently relate your ideas to others. Emotionally, hidden under your aloof mannerisms, you are affectionate and extremely loyal but only to those you love and care about the most.
Work and Finances
A suitably challenging occupation is essential for a person born on the fourteenth of January to combat boredom at work. You require a career that is progressive where you can utilize your creativity and quick thinking and gain a sense of accomplishment. When it comes to finances you have a good brain for numbers but you will find it easier to manage other people's money rather than your own. You will sometimes struggle to find an appropriate balance in your personal financial arrangements as you have a tendency to every now and then be indulgent or reckless in your spending.
Personal Relationships
Akin to a typical Capricorn the person born on the fourteenth day of January is diffident and cool towards intimacy. Although you long to love and be loved you may find it difficult to open up especially at the start of a relationship. You are often ahead of your age in understanding and very respectful and will expect a partner to be the same. They will have to appreciate your need for occasional solitude and understand why you are most often slow to commit to permanent personal relationships. It is unusual for you to settle long term into a soul mate partnership until you have known the other person for a long time. You will seek someone with a similar intelligence and interests. As you are so self reliant you greatly value your privacy and will usually search for a partner that also holds this in high regard.
Health is sometimes not taken seriously enough by those born on January 14th as you are likely to neglect yourself in this area. While you enjoy your food you need to stay still long enough to digest it properly and learn to relax a bit more. Any issues with your health like headaches or insomnia are most often stress related or linked to a poor diet. People born on this day should perhaps consider meditative relaxation therapies to unwind and avoid skipping meals or not getting adequate rest. You are the sort of individual who seems to need a full night's sleep and will be short tempered if they don't get it.
Strengths and Weaknesses
Your main strengths of character are in your strong will, mental alertness and ability to organize at speed. These characteristics and your friendly, sociable manner allow you to get along with and help lots of different types of people. A noticeable personality weakness in those born on January 14th is in your distance and coolness emotionally in one to one relationships, a good partner helps here. Another negative trait you may possess is that once in a while you can be too stubborn for your own good.
Dreams and Goals
Being born on the 14th of January denotes that you much prefer to go with the natural flow of things rather than make concrete plans. You do have personal dreams and goals but they could change frequently as you naturally take life as it comes and are able to work around things. Anything you are particularly enthusiastic about or aim for is unlikely to be dampened by any delays or discouragements as you are highly motivated towards your wishes. You like to do things that you have decided entirely for yourself and generally set your own flexible time limits on any ambitions.
Birthday Luck and Significance
As you were born on the fourteenth day of the month your date of birth has the digits one and four adding up to a Root number of 5. This birthday number reference has the keyword ' Inquiry' and possibly conveys your inquisitiveness and adept social conversational skills. The Tarot card connected to your birthday is the 14th Major Arcana card known as Temperance. This is a symbol of the balance you need to acquire in life to feel contented. A Diamond is the luckiest gemstone associated with January the fourteenth birthdays and it promises increased finances and protection against bad luck.
In Astrology the star sign of Capricorn is ruled by the planet Saturn determining your ambitiousness and reserved emotions. The actual day you were born, the fourteenth of January is astrologically governed by the planetary forces of Mercury. The influential power of these 2 planets combine to create the finer details of your individuality. Your preference to use your instincts to guide you through life serve you well and give you more opportunities for success. Your motivation and enthusiasm help you persevere where others would give up. A finishing thought for people born on January the 14th is, if you can control your apprehension of trusting others with your emotions you will benefit considerably from the security of love and commitment.

|Our cute little button (18 months old)!
So, when I noticed an email late this afternoon from my agency with a little "paperclip symbol" attached, I KNEW it was an update of our little guy! He has grown so much since the last set of photographs we saw of him back in early January! We haven't seen him smile yet, but we are certain we will make him crack a smile between the three of us :D.
Anyway, in terms of paperwork, we are moving swiftly along. We received our I-800 Approval and the NVC letter (PDF format); I filed for the DS-260 (Oliver's US visa application), and our agency submitted our paperwork to the US Consulate in Guangzhou on April 8 (known as "drop-off").
In about two weeks (say, April 22), our agency will notify us of the next step: "Article 5 pick-up" from Guangzhou to Beijing. What happens after that? We wait for our Travel Approval, or "TA" -- China's official invitation to visit China to adopt our child!!!
As soon as we receive "TA" I will drive to the Chinese Consulate in Houston to apply for our Chinese visas. (The last time we did this in 2012, we were able to apply for our Chinese visas after receiving the I-800 Approval; however, the Houston Consulate now requires that we have a copy of our TA to apply for visas through their Consulate.)
Gotta go! Still looking like we'll be traveling around the third week of May…that's 6 weeks from today :O! So much to do!!!

The llama is a South American relative of the camel. They are domesticated animals used by the peoples
of the Andes Mountains to carry heavy loads, typically 50 to 75 pounds. Under such weight
they can cover up to 20 miles in a single day. They are willing pack animals but only to a point. An overloaded llama will
simply refuse to move. These animals often lie down on the ground and they may
spit, hiss, or even kick at their owners until their load is lightened.
Llamas graze on grass, leaves, and shoots, and chew it as
cud. Cud is a mouthful of swallowed food that is regurgitated from the first
stomach. They have 3 stomach compartments and their food must pass through all
the stomachs during digestion. Enemies of the llamas are mountain lions, snow
leopards, and cougars. Llamas are not found in the wild.


text: Advancing the Common Good through Community Service at Bowdoin College Brandon Bouchard '07 Brandon Bouchard '07 Major: Government and Legal Studies with a concentration in Comparative Politics Hometown: Caribou, Maine Service activities: Common Good Grant Extension Committee, Co-Director '04-'05 Common Good Grant Extension Committee, Co-Director '06-'07 Caribou High School Music Building Fund, Creator/Chair, Spring '04-current How did you first get involved in service at Bowdoin? I came to be involved with service circuitously at Bowdoin. I entered my first year having been involved with a non-profit in my hometown and was working on a large mailing for the project. I stopped by the Community Service Resource Center (CSRC), where I met with the director, Susie Dorn, to see if they had discounted stamps that non-profits could receive. It turned out that they didn't. However, having met with Susie and witnessed the enthusiasm that she had for community service at Bowdoin, I immediately became interested in being involved with the CSRC. Under Susie's leadership the following year, Chris McCabe '05 and I created the Common Good Grant Extension Committee. I've been involved in community service at Bowdoin since, and continue to be in Northern Maine, as well. What have you gained from your service experiences and working in the community? I have come to understand that I've learned the most through interactions with fellow students, staff, faculty, and community members. I can come up with a number of ideas for new projects or methods to execute an existing project, but it is through interactions with people that these ideas best take shape and grow. Everyone has their own idea for how they can serve the common good, and everyone will provide something unique and beneficial to a project. Learning how to integrate a plethora of ideas and skills into one solid goal or one plan of action is a skill that I believe can be applied to almost any career field. What does it mean to serve the Common Good? For me, serving the common good means that one advantageously uses his or her natural and learned skills, experiences, and wisdom to benefit community. Whether community means a college campus, town, region of the state, or a larger entity, serving this idea directly and indirectly allows all of our lives to prosper. The brilliance behind serving the common good is that it can be advanced through a boundless spectrum of service. Anyone can significantly contribute to it, even with the smallest of acts. Anything from providing ideas during a meeting and photocopying for a small non-profit in Brunswick to helping raise $1 million for a children's center in New York City all serve the common good. Sharing and learning from the interactions and experiences of others and applying these skills to real life situations are where it can best thrive.

Every student needs a different approach depending on their temperament and goals. After assessing the student, I will tailor my teaching to achieve the most out of each lesson.
If a student is willing to commit to practicing outside of the lesson, after six months he or she will have the ability to play with others, and decide for him or herself if this is something he or she will pursue further.
The achievement level is in the hands of the student, depending on their level of commitment and abilities.

Bike Sauna
File this under "Why The Face". A Czech Republic based architect firm has created this prototype of a bike sauna to experiment with ideas that also act as social tools. And as we all know, the best way to get social is to strip half-naked, climb into a vaginally inspired shape made of space age materials then beat each other with various flora while sweating your ass off.
Here's the thing…this sounds absurd now, but re-read this post in a couple months when you're biking to work through knee deep slush and into a sub zero wind chill, THEN tell me how ridiculous this was to create. If you're curious about the specifics, the sauna holds up to six people and is heated by an internal fireplace.

Hey, this is a respectable website, so you should be sweating your butt off, not your ass.
Meh, I'm waiting for the bike hot tub personally.
You had me at "half-naked".
The drawing in the bike sauna link is hilarious with the guy, his suit and cigarette.
You know, if there was some pole dancing in there, that would be cool.
[...] house contains an almost full-service bike shop for their combined 22 bikes, a hot water station, (stationary) sauna and repair space. That's all really just the tip of the bikeberg [...]

Are There Any Cool SEO Terms Out There?
Before I really get going here I want to first say that I know for a lot of people coming to this blog you are going to be scratching your head wondering just what the hell is SEO in the first place, much less what do all of the other terms mean? Terms like SEO (search engine optimization), on page seo, anchor text, partial matching anchor text and blah, blah, blah.
It reminds me of the character of the Mayor in the animated film "Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs," where the main character, Flint Lockwood, is telling the Mayor about the dangers of overloading his food machine. The Mayor responds, "You know what I heard? Blah, blah, blah, blah, science, science, science, BIGGER! And Bigger is Better!"
Understanding What It Takes To Keep Your Site "Up There!"
When you first come onto the blogging or Internet scene there are a lot of "little" things, especially terms, that you probably have never heard before and there comes a point and time when you realize that you are going to have to get at least a rudimentary grasp of what some of these things actually mean and how they impact you and your search engine ranking efforts!
This is about the time when I hear someone say, "You don't really need to rank well with the search engines, it's not THAT big of a deal." My feelings there are Yes and No, but when you learn how to rank on the first page of Google (or some of the other search engines) AND you realize that it isn't really that hard to do, why would you walk away from so much traffic? Your competitor probably isn't going to!
Ranking well on the search engines is important and don't let anyone tell you that it isn't. Yes, you can generate a lot of traffic from different sources and in the long run will probably get most of your traffic from other sites that link back to yours, but if you learn to drive a thousand people or more to your blog per day and your search engine traffic is a paltry 15% of that traffic, that's 150 people. I'm just not prepared to throw one hundred plus people away like they mean nothing. What if inside that group of 150 you have someone there that has a blog that gets 15,000 or even 50,000 people a day to their site and they decide they want to connect? Food for thought, food for thought.
Anchor Text: Exact or Partial
So, now that all of that is off of my head, we need to get down to business and talk about anchor text…what is it and why do you need to know about it? Anchor text is basically the text that you use to insert a backlink back to your site.
For example, if you are going to promote a blog post with an article, in the bottom portion of the article that you write is an author's resource box. This author's resource box is generally where you will put two links back to your blog and blog post. The text that you use to link back to your site or post is referred to as the "anchor" text.
Up until the Google Panda update most bloggers or SEO professionals would insert their links using an exact match. An example of this would be if you were writing an article about the iPod Touch then you would make your author's resource box with an exact match by writing a statement like the following:
To learn more about iPod Touch then check out www.yourblog.com for more information.
The above is an example of an exact match and this has been taught as good backlink building in terms of SEO. The problem is, that it may no longer be the best SEO technique and that a partial match may be the way to go according to many SEO experts.
An example of a partial match would be something along these lines…oh, and we are still using the key phrase iPod Touch:
To learn more about the iPod Touch then check out www.yourblog.com for more information.
The above link is a quick example of a partial link back to your blog post referring to the iPod Touch.
Understanding HTML Code
One other thing, I know a lot of you out there are still unfamiliar with HTML, but you need to learn a little. The above code is how you insert a link into a site using HTML. Some sites will actually have the link tab at the top (like WordPress) and all you will have to do is highlight the word or phrase (ANCHOR TEXT) and then click the "insert link" button and that is fine too.
I'm not going to sit here and tell you guys that I am the big daddy guru of SEO, but I can read and I have been checking out this information concerning building backlinks. I found a cool video on YouTube and you can check it out by following this link (this guy really does know about SEO): http://youtu.be/0aHknOVK-zQ.
Remember why we are doing all of this guys. I know this can be some boring stuff, but this is exactly the sort of thing that you have know and understand to be able to rank your posts, articles and website on the first page of Google and keep it there! Knowing how to employ these techniques will keep you and your information at the top of the SERP's and that will generate tons of free and targeted organic traffic – who wants to throw that away?
Happy Hunting Guys and I'll see you at the top!

Cancer Fighting Foods
By: Anthony Wallace, CALA, Executive Administrator
PCDI Healthcare and Consultants of Texas L.L.C
According to the American Cancer society website, the word cancer comes from the Hippocrates "the father of medicine" to describe the word "crab". The word crab is to describe the finger-like spreading and jagged edges of the cancer growth. There are elements that may cause cancer in humans. Our food supply has not been the same as our past ancestor such as the overload of preservatives for longer shelf life, industrialization of emissions from cars and pollution plants, and the water supply that has toxins from the industrial plants and water wasting. These are all contributors of know cancer factors among cancer patients. (aca,2009)
According to the CDC (Center of Disease Control) breast cancer is the leading cause of death among women and prostate cancer among men. Most cancers are caused by high-fat diets, processed to death foods, which is a contributor to early rheumatoid arthritis, and the surrounding elements such as contaminated soil, polluted air, and contaminated water.
Cancers can be treated through conventional medical methods such as chemotherapy and radiation. The alternative methods of treating cancers may include herbal remedies, sun and water baths, and massages. These are all methods to producing a healthier vibrant immune system. Nutritional therapy may contribute to boosting the immune system and fighting cancer cell growths. Brown rice, green tea, and garlic are the leading foods that fight cancer, stop the growth of certain tumor cells, and slow or prevent free radicals from mutating good cells.
Tumors are cancerous masses that may cause pain or localized discomfort in the human body. Tumors are cells that do not have the DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) or the genes to stop producing other cells thus the cells stick together and form balls or tumors. Tumors came from the Latin word "oncos", which means to swell. Whole garlic has been shown to stops and shrink tumors over a therapeutic period (6 weeks) Green tea has been shown to reduce the swelling and aid in boosting the immune system to fight foreign malignant cancer cells. This article is used to educate the consumer and not to diagnose. If you have immediate medical need please seek a naturopath or medical doctor for treatment. Take care and be in good health.

In the United States, nearly 33 percent of all deliveries are conducted via Caesarian section, also known as C-section.
Although this procedure is extremely common, it carries some inherent risks. When conducting a C-section, if the doctor fails to respond to a sudden emergency situation in a timely manner or makes errors, it can cause a serious injury to the baby, the mother, or both of them. Chicago birth injury lawyer explains these risks in detail.
What is a Cesarean Section?
A cesarean section is commonly referred to as a C-section. It is a surgical procedure used to deliver a baby through an incision made through the mother's abdomen and uterus. A cesarean section is a major surgery and it should be performed only when it is medically necessary because injury to the mother or child could result.
Situations when C-section is necessary
C-section is required in certain situations when the doctor observes fetal distress or when labor is unusually long. Some other reasons include:
- Mother had a surgery on the uterus previously or a C-section in a previous pregnancy
- There are problems with the placenta.
- Mother has an infection such as genital herpes or HIV
- Mother is having triplets
- Mother has a chronic health condition, such as high blood pressure or diabetes
- Baby is in a breech position
- Baby's umbilical cord slips into the vagina
- Baby has a certain type of birth defect
The biggest challenge doctors face while performing a C-section is responding to any emergency situations that may develop during the process. A slight negligence on the part of the doctor in monitoring the condition of the baby or mother during the c-section can cause a medical malpractice occurrence serious damage to the baby, such as a brain injury.
Common problems that may emerge during a C-section
Some of the commonly reported problems during a C-section include:
- baby is born prematurely
- mother starts hemorrhaging during the operation
- administering to too much or too little anesthesia that causes problems for the mother
- mother gets an infection from the surgery
- mother loses bowel or bladder control after the caesarian section
- baby gets insufficient oxygen supply
- baby suffers brain damage
- scarring by medical instruments
Most of these problems are easily preventable if the doctor exercises caution and follows the standards of care expected of him.
Recovering damages for birth injuries resulting from C-section complications
In order to file a lawsuit against the responsible doctor to recover compensation for the damage that you or your child has suffered, you will have to prove that the doctor acted negligently, or in a manner that does not meet the standard of care.
To make a successful claim, you will need help from a competent and experienced Chicago birth injury lawyer. The lawyer will examine your case, prepare necessary documentation, gather evidence and get medical experts to testify in your favor to help recover appropriate compensation for your child's injury and suffering.

You should upload more videos! :D
soft rocks show was off the hook!!! when is that try to find me "needs ending" record being released? thank you:)
that was some funny shit .... Harvey you are the best. come back to SF soon - Public Works in april was a blast... this city 'bout lost its mind that night!!!
Love the guest mixes but haven't had one from you for at least a month!
Sort it out.
Ha-Ha! I saw that particular Leigh Bowery show, back in the day at The Fridge!!
Seems to be a server issue?
Harvey has good chat but his dissing of England hurts.
There are plenty of sororities on campus for you Tim. Great set Piers!
It does hurt, especially as he's wrong..
Ahhhhhhh, that Try To Find Me is so good! I heard it somewhere else before and I need to ID that track "no I just can't seem.... to manage"
So, so wrong...
that just cant seem to end it was on vandervolgen yeah man mix on lovefingers.org... ya heard. bye. ps... luv to harv and pierre's
Recent video of Harvey at the studio where he recorded Locussolus project:
Piers puttin' those Phily record scores to use!
New Swimmers 7" is killer...great job on the dub version!
DJ Harvey is a great entertainer! It's nice to hear World Premiere, I love that song!
is it working ??! I love Harveys style ! ! ! well done !
Love from Milano.
What is the track #17? Let me know please!
To slag England off in such a way is a disgrace ....
Don't forget your roots mr B
I can empathise with Harvey's view on the UK. It's been a long time since he was part of the music scene here so his views are perhaps slightly inaccurate. But as an older DJ assocatied with digging, disco and the like, he's probably worried that his return could draw the wrong crowd and wrong vibe. From his crowd surfing antics at Eleven to his NYE equipment destroying, its plain to see he's an entertainer and performer as much as he's a DJ/record collector and musician. His concern is about having and showing a good party. In Japan that happens. There are the usual Japanese obssessive otaku types, but the wealth of age variety and fun is much more apparent than somewhere in the UK. A lot of the serious people he left the scene from and muso types who would be record spotting around the decks wouldn't fulfil much of a hedonisitc affair or atmosphere. Hopefully, I'm wrong and so is he and someone will get it right and he will willingly come and play.
tell him to get down allez-allez, secret sundaze, the nest, disco bloodbath, plastic people, cable, camp, naive melody etc etc in whatever order he wants.
That "needs ending" track is also on this mix:
I was just in London and went to a few amazing shows. I loved the Nest and the East Village Club - both had great shows with awesome fun crowds of people. I think I would take shit he says with a grain of salt. People talk shit about San Francisco all the time (where I live) and about 10% of it is true. It is just that the 10% shit about everyone is a vapid trend latching hipster gets repeated over and over. Most people here (and in London) love a wide variety of electronic music and know how to have a good time. Bigger venues anywhere will always have tools and bros.
Kind of lame to complain about Londoners disrespect to their own city and then slate it himself, especially when he isn't in any way involved it any more and hasn't been for years and years. I have a lot of respect for Harvey, but maybe he should practice what he preaches, especially when so much world changing dance music is happening there at the moment. If it's true that he just feels that he doesn't want beardey guys there, then maybe he shouldn't be playing prog and disco.. kids here have changed the world of dance music in the past few years. I just don't know how exciting prog and disco is for a young person to be honest.
Either way. Gonna leave it there, his banter is always hilarious and probably best to take with a pinch of salt.
DJ Harvey talks too much. Perhaps he regretted his comments afterwards, but i found some of the things he had to say were a tad disrespectful, especially on a radio show that has such a global audience. It sounded like Tim was a bit uncomfortable. Not to mention, I like hearing from the DJ at the start of the show, but not for half an hour. I did enjoy his track selections, though!
Better late than never. Just listened to this, great music and I enjoy Harvey talking :) Track 6. must be an edit of Amon Düül - Spaniards and Spacemen, great one indeed!

Disney Leibovitz Update
Ok, so here's something new i want to try... i was noticing that it seems a bit silly to write a lot of posts on the same thing and keep posting them separately. Frankly, it hasn't been making NOTCOT, as a resource, very efficient for me when i try to find something... SO, i'm testing something out, and i haven't worked the kinks out yet. But here's a start... Annie Leibovitz and Disney have added to their actor/actresses as classics set (Rachel Weisz as Snow White, and Julie Andrews as the Blue Fairy with Abigail Breslin as a fairy-in-training)... SO instead of posting a new post just about that, i've decided to UPDATE the last post, so all the info on that stays in one place... and since i haven't quite figured out how to notify NOTCOT readers about it, i'm linking you to an anchor.
yes, i see the silliness of giving it a new post, while not giving it a new post with the images and information in it. Have any ideas of how i can efficiently pull this off for us all?

For our special issue on "Reimagining Capitalism" [June 27], The Nation asked sixteen activists and economic thinkers, "If you had the ability to reinvent American capitalism, where would you start?" We also posed the question to our readers, who readily flooded us with hundreds of thoughtful and creative proposals—a sample of which follows below. The enthusiastic response confirms special issue editor William Greider's argument that "the nation is alive with fresh thinking and bold outlines for big change." The challenge is to put them into action.—The Editors
Alpharetta, Ga.
If we want to fix what is wrong with American capitalism, the best thing we could do would be to reaffirm our commitment to US workers by passing a new Wagner Act. That will once again put government on the side of the workers and affirm its support for the principle that organized labor is critical to ensuring that all Americans share in the benefits that a strong, vibrant capitalist system can bring.
San Jose, Calif.
The one thing I would do to change capitalism to get it to work for the people (if that is even possible) is simple: the Constitution needs to be amended to declare that corporations are not people. The people who run corporations should not have the right or the ability to cause untold damage and harm to other people poorer (in money and rights) than they are, and then be able to hide behind the mask of "I didn't do it; the corporation did—I'm just a shareholder."
Dayton, Ohio
Reforming capitalism is about making the largest corporations, and their officers and directors, accountable to society and their stakeholders. This entails fostering a culture of social responsibility among these companies. I would achieve this by creating a classification system for corporations: "A" corporations would be required to meet the highest standard of social responsibility. In return, they would pay lower taxes, avoid double taxation, enjoy greater liability protections, access to financial credits, etc. "F" corporations—those with histories of poor or irresponsible conduct—would be subject to tighter regulation, higher taxes, decreased liability protection, etc. A national ombudsman would create a public record for each corporation and its officers and directors, including lawsuits, regulatory actions, complaints and business actions. This record would be used to rank each corporation A through F. I believe such a system is long overdue and would benefit all of society.
Washington, D.C.
If we aim to create a more equitable and inclusive form of capitalism, we must find ways to overturn the legacy of free and cheap labor the United States has used to bolster its economy since slavery. Instead of functioning as an alternative to sweatshops and factory lines, prisons should serve as the rehabilitation branch of our criminal justice system. By overturning the for-profit prison system and creating public-private partnerships between the state and corporations, we can create training programs and services for prisoners that address many of our underlying societal problems like poverty, homelessness, and lack of resources and education. This model of employment and rehabilitation has already seen great successes among ex-convicts in nonprofits like DC Central Kitchen. Through the creation of these partnerships, we can overturn the exploitation of prison labor and change a workforce of indentured servants into responsible, skilled and employable citizens.


text: Sometimes handbags are at their best when they're all pristine and new, but other times they look better when they've been worn in a little – a bit like your favourite, softest old pair of jeans. This one by Kooba is, of course, brand new, but it has that "will get better with age" look about it that really appeals to us. We're also fans of the studs which you can see on the trim, here: it helps give the bag a bit of a rock-star vibe to it, which will look great with jeans and other casual looks. As for the price, well, it ain't cheap at $695, but if you like it, you can buy it at Nordstrom.

Did MSNBC host Melissa Harris-Perry really compare a North Carolina law to the kidnapping of Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus, and Michelle Knight in Ohio? It sure seems like she did.
In a segment that was introduced with the dramatic 911 call made by Amanda Berry that led to the incredible story that unfolded last week, Harris-Perry not-too-subtly pivoted to American laws and policies related to women's health and contraception, suggesting that the continuous decades-long rape of the three captive victims in Ohio were somehow comparable.
As Noah Rothman points out, Harris-Perry wasn't too subtle shifting from the horrible story in Ohio to discussing a move in North Carolina to force parental consent when their daughters seek contraceptives and treatment for STDs.
"The survival story of these women after enduring abduction, enslavement, and torture is a chilling echo of others like J.C. Dugard and Elizabeth Smart that have also captured national attention," Harris-Perry began.
She said that these stories and others like them ignite Americans' "SVU-fueled" nightmares about the sexual vulnerability of teen girls. "But, far more common when it comes to young women and sexual exploitation are the stories we forget or overlook altogether," she said.
Harris-Perry lamented that teen girls are not allowed to enter sexual maturity in a safe environment. "Instead, America's young women are shamed, silenced, mis-educated, exploited, and sometimes even denied health care."
One wonders if producers at MSNBC recognize the irony of Harris-Perry exploiting the Ohio victims of kidnapping, enslavement and rape to serve her political purposes by accusing lawmakers of exploiting women for their political purposes.

History tends to repeat itself, which is why Haley Kurtz '14 knows that studying the past prepares her for the future. "History's connection between the past and present fascinates me," she said. "Studying history means I get to study all sorts of topics, like philosophy, literature and theology."
History encompasses business, law, medicine, psychology, art, politics, theological study and the development of modern media. Students learn skills in critical thinking, problem solving, research, articulate writing and speaking. Students may be introduced to the basics of languages, such as Egyptian hieroglyphics, Greek, Medieval Latin, Anglo-Saxon and Celtic. Classes cover a variety of civilizations, including African, Middle Eastern, American, British and the classical world. Independent study courses may be available to enable students to explore areas of interest.
JBU's professors are committed to offering a high-quality Christian education that emphasizes critical thinking and academic motivation.
While some may think that history classes do not coincide with day-to-day life, Haley does not. "Everything I'm learning in my history classes overlaps with my other classes," she said. "It reinforces the importance and influence that history has in the world around us."

The many uses of drones have been well documented over the past several months. The unmanned aerial vehicles have been used to shoot scenes in major Hollywood films, survey farmland, deliver supplies as part of relief efforts, and carry out military intelligence operations. Now, they'll be used to deliver takeout food to people's homes.
According to story in Forbes, the CEO of Foodpanda, the world's largest online delivery platform, announced the company has plans to roll out new drone delivery technology throughout all 24 of its markets, including Hong Kong, India, Thailand, Singapore, and Malaysia. The company will be the first to offer food delivery with drones, after testing the concept in Singapore last year.
Foodpanda's CEO, Ralf Wenzel, hopes drone delivery will cut delivery time to 20 minutes, a full 10 minutes faster than the company's average delivery time in Hong Kong.
While the concept will improve delivery times, there are a number of technical issues the company is still trying to work through including balance, obstacle avoidance, limited battery life, payloads, as well as regulatory issues, according to the article.
To date, only a few countries have drone laws that require permits to fly the unmanned aircrafts. Also, in other places, there is no legislation to protect the drones or those who might be hit by drones while they are making a delivery.
Wenzel says that the company will do everything with legitimacy and make sure the drones are legally protected.
Where Can You Rent a Drone?
Need a drone for mapping purposes or looking to record scenery in your own commercial or independent film? Maybe you're surveying land for a building construction project? Either way, Rent It Today can connect you with drone camera rental providers in your area. Drone rentals open up a wide range of video shooting possibilities for videographers, photographers and RC hobbyists.

Candidate Supported by Two-Thirds of the Fugees Wins Haiti Election
Congrats, Michel Martelly.
Michel Martelly — the candidate supported by Pras and, after dropping his own candidacy, Wyclef — has won the Haitian presidential election. Pras tweeted yesterday, "It's official congrats to President Michel Martelly.........streets of Haiti is on fire right now." (Metaphorically on fire, we hope.) This, of course, once again proves that all-important political maxim: Always get out the Fugees vote. [VOANews]

Several months ago, the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power filed legal actions against Mammoth Community Water District to claim that LA owns all the water rights in Mammoth Creek. More recently, LADWP sent a letter to the Forest Service objecting to the issuance of a new permit that covers all Water District facilities on Forest land. This includes water storage, water and sewer lines and pump stations. DWP now says they are concerned about their water rights in this matter in place for decades. The Forest Service says they do not intend to take any action on DWP's comment and that there are no new uses by Mammoth Water District.
Water District Manager Greg Norby called DWP's latest objections "petty harassment." We asked DWP Public Relations Director Joe Ramallo for DWP's response to that. Ramallo did respond that the Forest Service asked for public comments on the new Forest Service master permit with the Water District. He said LADWP provided comments requesting more information to "better understand how the master permit could affect its operations."
Ramallo said, "Any actions that the Water District takes in the way of new facilities for diversion, treatment, or discharge could affect LADWP's water rights and absent a description of the facilities and operations, LADWP has no basis to know if it is affected."
Forest Public Information Officer Nancy Upham said DWP's comment was the only letter received on what amounts to an administrative move to consolidate Mammoth Water District's permits into one master permit. Upham said, "There is nothing new here. The Water District facilities have been in place for decades."
DWP Information man Ramallo said LADWP's comment letter to the Forest Service "simply seeks the appropriate disclosure of public information."
DWP asked the Forest Service to issue a supplemental notice and decision memorandum describing changes by the Water District with an extended public review and comment period. Upham said that Mammoth Ranger District Jon Regelbrugge believes there is no reason to do that.
Upham said it's "an administrative type action placing all the permits into one. There is nothing new happening on the ground," she said, "and no impact on water rights." Upham said the same conveyance and water storage facilities are there and "do not affect water rights at all. There's nothing new here." Upham said for the sake of efficiency, creating one master permit "makes good administrative sense."
