A pony was burned with cigarettes and had a staple fired into the wounds during an horrific attack at a stables.
The RSPCA has now launched an investigation into the "terrible act of cruelty" after the owner Karris Reeves discovered the injuries to Penny – a 16-year-old Welsh section B mare.
It is believed the animal may have been pinned against the wall during the brutal attack.
Ms Reeves, 20, who owns five ponies and two horses with her mum, at the stables in Hooton, Wirral said: "I saw the marks and didn't know what they were at first.
"I took pictures and my mum forwarded them on to the vet, who suspected they were burns.
"She came out and when you smelt them you could smell her fur and skin were burnt. The vet then found there was a staple in one of the wounds.
"There would have to have been a group of them, as even though she's little you're not going to hold a pony on your own to do that.
"The idea she's been locked in that stable and can't get away while they've done that to her just turns my stomach, that they've got a kick out of doing that. It's heartbreaking."
She said the attack has left Penny terrified of people she doesn't know.
Ms Reeves said: "When the RSPCA inspector went up to her she started trembling and trying to get away. She was always really friendly with strangers before that.
"We'd been trying to do the right thing by her by keeping her in the stable overnight so she's not outside getting cold and then someone goes and does this."
RSPCA animal welfare officer John Littlewood said: "This poor pony must have been in so much pain as a result of this terrible act of cruelty.
"Fortunately the wounds can be treated – but I cannot believe that someone has done this to an innocent animal and for no other apparent reason than being cruel."
Penny is recovering well – and I now want to hear from anyone who has any information regarding this incident.
"Penny was the only pony being stabled overnight – and she is kept in quite an isolated area – so whoever had gone there had gone there with the intention of causing her misery."
Anyone with any information regarding this or knows who caused this poor pony these injuries please call the RSPCA inspector line on confidence on 0300 123 8018

Rocker Courtney Love is singing the praises of a New York Times journalist for safely returning her cell phone after finding it in the back of a taxi cab.
The Hole frontwoman misplaced her iPhone on Wednesday night (20Nov13), and it was picked up by Frank Bruni, who immediately attempted to reach out to the singer via Twitter.com to make sure she got her smart phone back.
Alerting her to the find on Thursday (21Nov13), he tweeted, "Weird: the iPhone left in my yellow cab last night clearly belongs to (Courtney Love). Trying to return. Anyone? Courtney?"
She replied almost immediately and in a series of messages, she wrote, "frank you're a gem, what a small world... wow you really do have my phone at the (New York Times offices) yikes please don't read it... this is hilarious."
After retrieving her cell, she publicly thanked Bruni for not invading her privacy by accessing her private phone messages, writing, "Frank for governor!!! I would have to move to Iowa if you hadnt taken that route. Ohh the secrets we could tell (sic)."

Marley happy to cast doubts aside
Wednesday 2 June 2010
Article summary
There was consensus that the better team ultimately won as England edged past the Netherlands and into the final, though Mo Marley conceded she had begun to wonder if it was not her day.
Article top media content
Article body
There was consensus that the better team ultimately prevailed as England edged the Netherlands 5-4 on penalties to go through to Saturday's final, though Mo Marley conceded she had begun to wonder if it was simply not her day. The England manager was left to rue a lack of quality until it really mattered in the shoot-out; for Hesterine de Reus there was scant consolation in going through the tournament unbeaten and unbreached, especially as England now meet a France side the Jong Oranje beat 2-0 in their opening game.
Mo Marley, England manager
We spoke about needing quality today, especially in their half, and we lacked a bit at times – whether tired legs or the emotion of the occasion, I'm not too sure. We need to work the ball a bit better. On possession we probably deserved to win the game but when chances go amiss you start to think maybe it's not your day.
We haven't practiced [penalties] at this tournament. It was a case of technique – we ask the girls to show they're technically better than everyone else. Five out of five shows we have that, it's just a pity we couldn't always show it during the game! When it's tight like that you've got to be a bit smarter as we were playing a lot of percentage balls through.
It's irrelevant who is in the final – to even get there you have to be a really good team so it's even. The team with the quality on the day will lift the trophy.
Hesterine de Reus, Netherlands coach
All the girls are very disappointed but I think England deserve their place in the final. They played very well, had some good chances; we defended well but England were just a bit better than we were. It was very difficult for us to get at England's goal – we only had a few chances in extra time. During the first 90 minutes we could only defend.
The girls are very upset because it's France in the final so it could be that France go on to lift the cup and we beat them 2-0. It's very hard on them. They did a great job here, we got some good results but obviously we wanted to get into the final. That's how it goes.

Just noticed that the links on the main Nikon website for the CoolPix D6000 were taken down in the last day or two. Does anyone know if that means a D7000 is about to be launched?
On a related note, does anyone know if Adobe LightRoom software supports the WIC raw format used by the CoolPix D6000?
I'd love to have a compact camera with full manual controls and raw-output for serious shooting on hiking/mountain-biking trips, and the D6000 (or D7000) could be GREAT for that...

Solio Lodge
Small and intimate, Solio Lodge is found in the Solio Reserve in Northern Kenya's stunning Laikipia Plateau. The lodge boasts alluring contemporary design quietly juxtaposed by touches of traditionalism, with thatched roofs and African decorations echoing Solio's heritage. The lodge is part of a private ranch and is incredibly rich with wildlife and should guests be fortunate enough they may be able to observe both black and white rhino in the wild. Fantastic views are another defining feature of the property, with guests able to enjoy vistas of Mount Kenya rising in the distance from the comfort of their rooms.

Laikipia may need some development. Solio was acceptable, but I would not return. The fact that it is fenced, that it has no elephants or hippos, that leopards can hide in the more remote and inaccessible areas, reduced our enjoyment. The facilities and staff were excellent, however.Read full trip review

Current health IT does not adequately support the way doctors and nurses work or think, as evidenced by suboptimal designs, diminished cognitive support and lack of interoperability which hinders team-based care coordination across the continuum. Solutions include better understanding of intra- and interdisciplinary workflows, more skillful and consistent application of well-known user centered design principles, and a new vision of more agile and intuitive health IT systems.
Two members of the HIMSS Physician Community share their thoughts on five challenges clinicians face and offer solutions on "how to fix".
Challenge #1: Navigation Burden
- The issue: Information is not organized to support clinical workflow and the way clinicians think. Too many clicks are required to access important data and critical information is buried in a mass of unimportant text data.
- Why it persists: Clinician workflows are complex, nonlinear, and dependent on a variety of sources, all of which differ significantly between specialties and individual providers. Health IT is currently designed with generic tasks and steps that impose new workflows that do not support decision making or efficiencies.
- How to fix it: We need to observe and record workflows in a structured form to understand commonalities and best practices. These need to be publicly available to avoid every institution having to recreate them. Then, we need to redesign health IT, particularly EHRs, by giving clinicians flexibility to individualize task sequences to fit their work habits and by partnering with human factors experts to group related information and create data visualizations that speed accurate decision making.
Challenge #2: Data Entry Burden
- The issue: All clinicians are under time pressures. For example, in a 15-minute office visit, a clinician is expected to make eye contact, listen empathetically, process nonverbal cues, keep laboratories, allergies, and medication lists in mind, and formulate differential diagnoses. The same clinician is also required to document granularly enough to support an ICD-10 code, enter hundreds of items of structured data to comply with multiple quality and value programs, and avoid committing malpractice. The connection with the patient is easily lost.
- Why it persists: Data entry is assigned to the busiest, most highly trained members of the health care team – front-line clinicians. In fact, the resulting increased cognitive load and decreased situational awareness impair their ability to focus, comprehend, and solve the patient's problems.
- How to fix it: Standardize, simplify, automate, and delegate. Harmonize and decrease data entry requirements to focus only on the most meaningful data. Require EHR technology, as a condition of certification, to collect and populate appropriate quantitative data automatically. Expand data entry capabilities to help prioritize tasks among members of the care team and allow for the use of appropriately trained data entry technicians.
Challenge #3: Structured Documentation Burden
- The issue: Structured documentation tools make it difficult to communicate the complex details of patients' care and nuanced clinical reasoning. The current emphasis on billing produces disorganized, bloated clinical notes. Documentation requirements have expanded significantly over recent years.
- Why it persists: Available tools do not efficiently incorporate complicated data into notes, track multiple high complexity problems, and maintain continuity of medical decision making. Regulators and executives implemented documentation requirements without pruning old requirements or rethinking the process. For example, every clinic note does not need the patient's entire medical history, and use of the 1997 CMS bullet point system does not produce quality documentation
- How to fix it: The documentation process needs to be re-envisioned and redesigned. Certain sections of a patient's medical record change very slowly over time (specialty specific problem list, allergies, past medical history, family history, and social history) and do not need to be explicitly repeated in each progress note. Flexible specialty templates should emphasize the interval history, clinical reasoning, and recommendations most important to the current visit. EHRs should aggregate information pertinent to the problem at hand and be designed using data visualization techniques for optimal display.
Challenge #4: Interoperability Burden
- The issue: Disparate, non-integrative health IT impedes care across the continuum. Manual reconciliation is persistent. Due to lack of interoperability across vendors, care transitions can lead to errors, gaps in care and delays in decision making.
- Why it persists: Differing platforms, clinical vocabularies, and information architecture make it difficult and expensive to effect interoperability or for clinicians to switch away from stand-alone EHRs. Our economic model of competition (versus collaboration) and maximizing profit (versus healthcare for the common good) has led to resistance and the preservation of market share for current IT vendors. Until very recently, regulatory incentives have been insufficient to overcome this economic barrier.
- How to fix it: Stronger regulatory incentives are needed to mandate technical and semantic interoperability, require the use of standard clinical terminologies, standard data structures, and standard platforms for data exchange and information flow, such as the HL7 FHIR and RESTful architecture standards. Strong research support is needed for innovative technologies that improve care across the continuum.
Challenge #5: Clinical Decision Support (CDS) Burden
- The issue: Many current CDS tools are interruptive and fail to integrate key pieces of data in the context of workflow. This can lead to alert fatigue and actually hinder the decision-making process with increased cognitive loads.
- Why it persists: Experienced clinicians employ extraordinarily complex thought processes which may differ between practitioners. This makes it extremely difficult to design tools which provide the right information to the right person in the right CDS format through the right channel at the right point in workflow (Osheroff et al. http://ebooks.himss.org/product/improving-outcomes-clinical-decision-support).
- How to fix it: Strong support is needed to better understand clinical workflows and clinician conceptual models. Also needed are strong regulatory incentives for extensive formative user-centered design testing to achieve better balance of clarity, scope, and prominence in CDS interventions.

Wyatt Family fatal 4 way
Now I know this sounds a bit unrealistic but what if WWE is building towards the huge implosion of the entire Wyatt a family by having the four members square off at Mania for the World title? I know Rowan doesn't belong anywhere near the world title picture and I'm probably clutching at straws (Not even sure if Rowan is cleared to compete) but I just think it works on so many levels. This whole angle began when the Wyatt family consisted of just Bray and Rowan. Orton manages to sort of take care of Rowan who goes into obscurity and then we get the return of Harper who has issues with Orton to begin with. I think booked well this could be a great end to the Orton/Wyatt angle and maybe the BIG swerve is Orton actually helps WWE champion Bray retain at Mania?
Just an idea of where WWE could go with this other than the inevitable Wyatt/Orton match we're going to get. Thoughts?
Here is all the matches I tip for Wrestlemania 33
Andre The Giant Invitational Battle Royal
WWE Cruiserweight Gauntlet Match
Main Card
RAW Matches
WWE Tag-Team Title Match
Triple-Threat Match
The Club (c) v Enzo & Cass v Cesaro & Sheamus
WWE RAW Women's Title Match
Fatal-4-Way Match
Charlotte (c) v Bayley v Sasha Banks v Nia Jax
WWE U.S. Title Match
Chris Jericho (c) v Kevin Owens
Seth Rollins v Triple H
Roman Reigns v The Undertaker
WWE Universal Title Match
Goldberg (c) v Brock Lesnar
SMACKDOWN Matches
WWE Tag-Team Title Match
American Alpha (c) v The Usos
WWE SD Women's Title Match
Triple-Threat Match
Alexa Bliss (c) v Becky Lynch v Mickie James
WWE Intercontinental Title Match
Dean Ambrose (c) v Baron Corbin
Shane McMahon v A.J. Styles
Mixed Tag-Team Match
John Cena & Nikki Bella v The Miz & Maryse
WWE Title Match
Bray Wyatt (c) v Randy Orton
I don't know if i already wrote this on this thread and i don'T want to go through all the post to find it so i will write it again here.
I think we has fans and even some wrestlers put to much important in being the last match at mania. The fact is with the length that mania is each here with over 4 hours for the main show, i think that you can have a headlining match at mania without being the last match at mania. If you look at this year's mania card, here the list of headlining matches:
Seth Rollins vs HHH
Undertaker Vs Roman Reigns
Randy Orton Vs Bray Wyatt
Kevin Owens Vs Chris Jericho
Goldberg Vs Brock Lesnar
A j Styles vs shane McMahon
and depending on what they got plan for the aftermath of the mixed tag match, i could see that match as a headliners also.
The point is mania is and as always been about the spectacle of the event more then the actual wrestling. This year, you got 7 out of a possible 15 matches that can be considered main event matches in my opinion, you will need at less 4 of these matches to main event each hour of the event so that leaves you with one match as an opener and one as a mid point match. The last one can be put near the end before the battle royal and it won't cause a problem.
In the end, Goldberg vs lesnar might be the last match on the show but it's part of multiple main events for wrestlemania.

This comes after Massachusetts regulators allowed MGM Springfield to serve alcohol until 4 a.m. Opponents of the move such as Michele Mudrick said extended hours could lead to more drunk driving. "It would increase the already high social costs that casinos have to communities," Mudrick said. In the past, the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation has pitched a later last call as a way to increase tax revenue. Now, the tribe says extending hours will keep the Connecticut casinos competitive.

The Martha Stewart Show, November 2006
Removing the wine label is a great idea. Rather than saving an empty bottle of wine, you can remove the label quite easily and mount it into a journal or scrapbook.
Fill the bottle with hot water, and then soak it in warm, soapy water. After an hour, the label should be floating off the bottle or clinging loosely. If it is still stuck, continue soaking for an hour more, even overnight if necessary. For a stubborn label, carefully use a single-edge razor to scrape the label off. Once the label has soaked off, place it on a paper towel, adhesive side up, blot, and allow to dry. Now you have a label ready to be placed in a scrapbook or journal.

Governor Addresses School Finance Committee
AUSTIN - Governor Rick Perry told the Joint Select Committee on Public School Finance today that his plan for property tax relief is the best way to reform the tax system. He pointed to a three billion dollar tax decrease and increased funding for Texas schools as the primary example of this. He called his proposed property tax cap a vital part of the plan in that all together it would rid the state of the so-called Robin Hood funding plan, which currently takes tax dollars from wealthy school districts for redistribution to poorer parts of the state.
The committee was meeting today, April 19, 2004, to examine the governor's plan and hear expert testimony on how it could affect the state's schools and business environment. A number of panels appeared before the members, the first regarding how effective incentive-based education funding plans might be. Dr. Shirley Neeley, Texas Education Agency Commissioner, led off this invited testimony. She described statewide improvements in student achievement at certain grade levels and told the members that the "public schools of Texas should be the schools for all Texas children." Dr. Neeley also felt that incentives would ensure that children will perform at a higher level.
Gayle Fallon, from the Houston Federation of Teachers, said that one problem with incentive-based pay is that some teachers are, by exclusion, singled out as inadequate when they may simply have students who were behind academically at the beginning of the school year. He said that base salaries are so low that half of teachers in Houston leave by the end of the fifth year. Tom Luce, of Just for the Kids, said that incentives do work and that certain incentives exist in the Texas Education Code today.
Lonnie Hollingsworth from the Texas Classroom Teachers Association said that while the governor's plan had many good points and did not undo earlier reforms that shrank class size. However, Hollingsworth said that if a plan replaces local property taxes with other money, then there has to be other tax sources that will grow along with the number of students. Dr. Catherine Clark, from the Texas Association of School Boards, echoed this, saying school districts needed additional funding to educate an increasing student population.
How the governor's proposals could affect the state's tax base is another concern. The next panel included Bill Allaway, President of the Texas Taxpayers and Research Association. He said the Legislature should be careful of any plan that shifts a higher burden of property tax onto business, since Texas already relies on that tax for school funding. Bill Hammond from the Texas Association of Business said Texas businesses already pay more than half of the property taxes, well above the national average, and that additional taxes would hurt job creation. Mike Toomey, Governor Perry's Chief of Staff, explained the more technical parts of the governor's proposal and how funding would change in coming years.
The committee discussed whether a cap on homestead taxes means a shift toward businesses as the primary source of property taxes. Paul Bettencourt, the Harris County Tax Assessor, said that over the past 20 years, the homeowner's share of the state's property tax burden has risen from 30 percent to 40 percent. He recommended reducing the homeowner's tax burden before anything else. Former Texas Senator Mike Moncrief, now Mayor of Fort Worth, testified that the governor's tax cap which was called a "miniscule tax cut" would mean that Fort Worth would lose vital services such as police, fire, and libraries, while "failing to provide any meaningful tax relief." Mayor Robert Cluck of Arlington said the governor's proposal is not a cap on taxes, it's a cap on services and that services from the public safety sector will be cut.
Ensuring that each Texas child gets equivalent funding has also been a hot issue. Robert Scott, from the Texas Education Agency, briefed the committee on a recent Supreme Court decision that said while equity was a vital part of the system, it does not require the state spend exactly the same money on each student. Clayton Downing, from the Texas School Coalition, was concerned that if tax revenues were capped, the state might not have enough revenue to pay off previously sold bonds. Brad Shields from the Texas Smokestack School Coalition, said that the Legislature has pitted rich and poor school districts against each other, while the state's share of the total education bill continued to shrink. Scott McCown, former judge and Executive Director of the Center for Public Policy Priorities, said the problem with the governor's plan is that the ends "Robin Hood" while not ensuring equity in funding between school districts. And as far an incentives for teachers are concerned, McCown said you have to take into consideration what kind of students the teachers are given when their performance is measured.
Today the committee was to examine revenue options as well as job creation and the overall economic climate of Texas. Public testimony followed the invited witnesses.
The Joint Select Committee on Public School Finance is Co-chaired by Senator Florence Shapiro and Representative Kent Grusendorf. Members from the Legislature include Senators Eddie Lucio, Steve Ogden, Todd Staples and Leticia Van de Putte as well as Representatives Talmadge Heflin, Fred Hill, Vilma Luna, Ken Marchant and Ron Wilson. Public Members include Carolyn Bacon, Caroline Hoxby, Jack Ladd and Don McAdams. The committee recessed subject to call of the chair.

The Serval fulfils a growing demand for ruggedized and reliable thermal cameras for industrial imaging applications without the need for third-part
") //-->
The Serval-640-GigE Thermography is a LWIR camera in an IP67-rated enclosure. The camera is developed for demanding indoor applications in harsh, hot and dusty environments. The goal was to design a thermal camera able to measure temperatures that can be used, with a minimum of maintenance, in extreme environments.
The Serval-640-GigE Thermography has 4 standard on-board calibration ranges. Xenics offers calibrations (only with selected lenses) from:
*Using ND filter. A calibration with ND filter cannot be combined with another calibration without ND filter
This allows you to measure temperatures from -20°C to 2000°C.
Due to its compact IP67 housing, the Serval-640-GigE Thermography does not need a third party enclosure, keeping the costs for system integrators down. The camera is also equipped with a lens cap with front window that protects the lens and avoids costly repairs or replacements of it. This lens cap is equipped with an air purge that keeps the lens clean in dusty environments.
As its name suggests, the Serval-640-GigE Thermography has a GigE Vision interface. The camera is easy to integrate in third party software by C related programming languages and the optionally available LabVIEW SDK.
The Serval-640-GigE Thermography simply offers the best price-performance ratio on the market as a truly complete IP67 industrial thermography camera.

Spacious living area and beautiful views. The apartment is found on the first floor – a stones throw from the famous boutiques, bars and Michelin starred restaurants of Courchevel.

One double bedroom with shower, wc et sink both with private wc. 2 more bedrooms with shower and wc to share. There is a ski locker on the doorstep and a double garage sitiuated in the building Les Portes de Courchevel nearby.
Courchevel is one of Europes most well known resorts – popular with the rich and famous! Part of the world reknown 3 Valleys along with Meribel and Val Thorens – the largest ski area in the world offering you 600km of groomed piste, unlimited off pistes and 180 lifts. Panoramic views to take your breath away and 7 Michelin star restaurants sharing a total of 11 starts. You can guarantee you will be eating the very best!
Courchevel not only has fantastic skiing and all other winter activities it also has plenty of summer activities and some glorious hiking to be done in the summer as well. It is 30 mins from Moutiers and its TGV joining Paris, Lyon and London as well as the Thalys for Brussels. There is also a bus station. Moutiers is 2 hours from Lyon and Geneva airports and only about 45mins from Chambery and Annecy.
Three Valleys Ski Area
A beautiful place all year with highly defined seasons and quiet and tranquil out of the ski season when the crowds have gone home, and then suddenly once again each winter the mountains of the Three Valleys come alive with people enjoying this vast ski area..... the largest linked skiing in the world.
The Three Valleys ski domain provides more than 600km of runs and probably the same again off-piste. In fact it should now be called the Four Valleys with the link into Orelle (Maurienne Valley) which can be accessed by ski from Val Thorens. This has also opened up some extraordinary off-piste runs. The Three Valleys provides direct links between the ski resorts of St Martin de Belleville, Les Menuires, Val Thorens, Méribel, Mottaret, La Tania, Brides les Bains and the four Courchevel resorts, la Praz, 1550, 1650 and the world famous 1850 – and now Orelle, in the fourth valley - all under one ski pass offering on-piste skiing from 1300m all the way up to 3200m. As these figures show the Three Valleys ski area offers huge altitude differences favouring long run skiing.
It has an ultra efficient, state of the art ski lift system, quality piste preparation and a dense artificial snow making system (1920 snow cannons) complementing the excellent natural snow cover. However, if you are not a fan of downhill skiing or like some variety during your stay then you can also roam the domain at your leisure on foot, hiking along the marked trails, or using the pedestrian ski lift passes. Many trails have been created especially to enjoy the increasingly popular snowshoeing sport and to discover the valleys from a new perspective: flora, wildlife, monuments, and spectacular scenery.There are also many cross-country skiing tracks that are prepared and maintained each day. These allow you to take in the breathtaking scenery and provide the opportunity to appreciate the beauty of the mountains away from the pistes.
An interesting and wonderful area all year round, there is much more here than the snow sports.
Courchevel 1850 Ski Resort
Sophisticated, chic and expensive. The highest and most famous of the Courchevel resorts was founded from scratch in 1946 and was the first purpose built ski resort. Since the beginning 1850 has long been the preferred ski destination of the rich and famous French who, over the years, have been joined by growing numbers of wealthy visitors from Britain, Russia and more recently the glamour of Bollywood and the new money of China.
It has a huge capacity to entertain its visitors both on and off the snow, with its vast array of restaurants providing sushi to French gourmet. It boasts a 2* Michelin restaurant, plus many other highly rated establishments to suit both traditional and modern tastes. In addition it has a good selection of night clubs and bars. If you fancy dancing to dawn try Les Caves ..... I'm sure I spotted Austin Powers in there ........
Shopping is plentiful and there are many well known expensive brands on offer - this is a resort of fur coats and diamonds. It is also a good place for non-skiers with many other pastimes on hand including a huge ice rink which also hosts shows and ice hockey and a bowling centre. There is also snow shoeing, ice climbing, snow karting, plane and helicopter rides alongside many cultural events and art shows.
1850 also delivers quality accommodation with a higher proportion of luxury lodgings than most resorts. Most of its clientele still prefer 4* luxury hotels although the popularity of the luxury chalet market is steadily growing. It's hard to rival 1850 for its classy comfort and outstanding cuisine – and certainly hard to rival for cost!
At the top of the resort is the helicopter base and Altiport where a well subscribed aero club is active throughout the summer and winter. In summer 1850 opens its 18 hole golf course which is situated at the foot of the Saulire peak. The superb view of the lake from hole number 1 stretches out before you, and the club runs golf and gourmet weekends along with the neighbouring golf course in Meribel.
The tourist office and proprietors work hard, summer and winter, to add value for the holiday goer with nightly entertainment, special events (from art and culture, to extreme ski competitions, to vodka evenings).
Overall 1850 has put in considerable effort to earn and keep its reputation and whilst it has stunning snow quality and perfectly groomed pistes it is still best known for its après ski. But don't be fooled, this is a resort that offers some extreme ski experiences right alongside the beautifully manicured pistes ideal for beginners and those less confident. The ski guiding service flourishes as the rich and famous seek their thrills.
The off-piste in the Three Valleys is exceptional and you can also take a helicopter to Italy for even more amazing ski experiences. Here, there is something for everyone.

Return to the Father's Heart—So the Earth Will Survive Robert B. Scott
This crucial book will pave the way for the of coming Elijah of Malachi 4:5-6, who is prophesied to bring today's absent fathers toward their neglected or jettisoned children and bring the heart of believers back to their Father in heaven. The book offers a solution to a pervasive problem among men today: their inability to forgive abusive fathers. This modern-day Elijah will "restore all things" (Mat. 17:11), including the true gospel of the Kingdom or Family of God, revealing the dangerous error of the grace revolution leading to the appearance of the man of lawlessness, an evil leader who will fight the second coming of Jesus.

Q: How does college and international competition at the Pan American games differ from pro ball?
A: Pro players are smarter. Many are stronger and know how to use their weight to their advantage. Play is faster.
Q: We used to be taught in junior high and high school basketball the "set shot," where you shoot without jumping. Nowadays you see pros and college athletes shooting jump shots from the far away three-point line. They jump and at the top of their jump, shoot.
A: We ladies don't have the strength to shoot as the male pros. We either shoot set shots or we shoot on the way up rather than at the top of our jump.
Q: We were impressed with your defense (seeing them on TV beat Brazil)? How important is it?
A: Very important. Canada has the reputation as the best defensive team in the world. Defense allows our offense to have more success.
We finished the interview by saying "bon voyage" when they travel back to France to play professional basketball.

Jennifer Lawrence On Being Curvy: "If Anybody Whispers The Word 'Diet', You Can Go F— Yourself!"
Jennifer Lawrence may be regarded as one of the most beautiful faces in Hollywood. But that doesn't mean she wasn't criticized for her looks early on in her career. In an interview with Harper's Bazaar UK for its November issue cover story, the actress was advised that her lack of a skinny frame might end her career.
"I was young," she recalls of the incident. "It was just the kind of s— that actresses have to go through. Somebody told me I was fat, that I was going to get fired if I didn't lose a certain amount of weight. They brought in pictures of me where I was basically naked, and told me to use them as motivation for my diet. It was just that. [Someone brought it up recently] They thought that because of the way my career had gone, it wouldn't still hurt me. That somehow, after I won an Oscar, I'm above it all. 'You really still care about that?' Yeah. I was a little girl. I was hurt. It doesn't matter what accolades you get. I know it'll never happen to me again. If anybody even tries to whisper the word 'diet', I'm like, 'You can go f— yourself.'"
Despite the pressure to be thin, the actress—who won an Academy Award for her role in Silver Linings Playbook—says food is still her biggest motivation on set. "My bodyguard Gilbert, right before they call 'action,' I'm like, 'If there aren't Cheez-Its here by the time they call cut, just go home.' And he'll start running," Lawrence jokes. "It cracks me up how seriously he takes it…It's not my performance that is motivating me. I want to get the on-set catering."

The other day I happened to click a following title on one of the Finnish radio stations websites: "What is your horoscope sign obsessed about?" According the article, my sign has a serious obsession with number 7. Touché. It is my lucky number and I had just finished this second knitted bag and as you look at the pattern and the amount of stitches below, well ... Here is a short pattern description as well for my "Lucky Number Seven -bag", in case someone would be interested.
2 kg = about 540 meters Lilli Ribbon Yarn from Filatex (or for example some other ribbon yarn/yarn)
Circular needle, 12 mm with 80 cm cable
approximately 50 cm x 60 cm
Cast on 70 stitches. Work in round. K = knit. This bag is knitted from the bottom up. There are many instructions on YouTube to make the stripes even when changing color if needed.
*K 7 rounds with blue, K 7 rounds with white*, repeat *-* 3 more time (7 stripes + 7 rounds white = 50 rounds).
During the 8th round of the upper part (with white) make handles. K 12 stitches, end 11 stitches, K 24 stitches, end 11 stitches, K 12 stitches. During the 9th round, cast on 11 stitches x 2 to replace the stitches ended during the previous round. Knit 5 more rounds, or as much yarn you have left and end all stitches and weave in the ends during the 6th round (=58 rounds).
Crochet the bottom seam together with slip stitches and weave in the ends.
Couch has got and extra mattress as well, made of two old mattresses. Have to work with the cover yet though. Perhaps I will take the other mattress away, but this is the very first version I show here and a work in progress. This couch is over 10 years old and I have already talked with a charity organisation to take it when they were picking up some other old furniture from my home. Now with this new cover I think I will be happy with the couch for a while and the color code seems to be good for autumn time. At least it is cozy for some crochet time and there is a splendid view outside when sitting in the other corner with a cup of coffee or tea in hand.
I also stitched a tiny semamori in one of the corners of the mattress. Semamori is a Japanese good luck symbol, these were stitched on the back of children's kimonos to protect them from harm. I guess this is now protecting the derrières of the people sitting on this couch, just some everyday silliness. Of course there is also a rich history behind these symbols and it is not to joke about.
Here are two fragments from my journals, to end up this month with. A couple of words I find to be central for us makers, creatives and humans. I try to cultivate these words in my profession as well. The words are childlike and creativity. These are also words I think we adults don't always understand. And it is the language teacher in me that likes to think about the meaning of the words. These are not ready thoughts, just me wondering and pondering and here we go:
"I try to be childLIKE as often as possible. And there is nothing childISH in that (I guess I learned this from Liz Gilbert). There is a big difference here, and I guess we often mix and misunderstand them. I like people who are childlike, you usually recognize them in their eyes. There is a curiosity and playfulness in them, and it can disappear if you don't take care of it. I think word childlike must be the word which will always keep us alive inside."
I Also remember from my teacher studies the following famous quote by Finnish philosopher Esa Saarinen:
"There are lots of people who give their all and have that inner glow on. It's a shame that majority of them are under seven years old."
And then there is the word creativity I have also been thinking about.
"They say it is devious pact - when you struggle, you usually have your most creative periods in life. I rather think it is the opposite. Creativity is a force given to us, a force which will always take us to the other side, no matter what we have going on in our lives. And so often you hear the following sentence: "You have that creativity in you". We all have that force waiting for us inside. Creativity is about surrendering to the process, never about the outcome, which all the wonderful wips in the closet prove as well ;-). Unfinished creative projects serve an important purpose even though not being useful or used. They tell about moments spent well, when you feel excited about a new project, those childlike moments – even though you just then didn't have the patience to work your way through the creative U-curve you need to tackle with in every project. Skill is then a different thing, it develops with time if you keep on practicing and develop your resilience. There is the magical number of working with something for 10 000 hours and then your master the skill – and not always even then do we master something professionally (but it doesn't prevent us from enjoying the skill). And creativity is never about the comparison, outside expectations or our expectations towards ourselves. It exist outside time and deadlines. And here within lies the power and the therapeutic nature of creativity. It is so often the opposite to what we are told and taught to: have to do, should do and what we aim for in our busy daily lives.
And perhaps a creative project becomes art when it touches someone else."
I have also been reading two books this summer, which I can recommend. Perhaps the titles already reveal some new words I have started defining in my life. The other one is Amanda Palmer's The Art of Asking. This book needs to be read slowly, it is full of life and wisdom. There is for example the following sentence which has been on my mind lately: "Än gör det inte ont nog", It doesn't hurt enough yet (I read the book in Swedish). It usually is so, our reptile brains keep us in safety and comfortable situations and the change occurs when staying in the same place hurts more than the change. Earlier this summer I also loaned a book called You are a Badass by Jen Sincero from the local library. It was uncomfortable to read, so I need to buy it for myself. And I must admit I rather hope to be "a goodass" (and also having a good ass would be nice, but let us just write the words together).
I think I leave this text here now, a mixture of this and that. Hopefully with a hint of smile on your face and wish a lovely month of August!

Stevenson's Harvey/Komarov powering ahead at Pitchford
An early season wake-up call appears to be just what the doctor ordered for Stevenson's Colin Harvey and Andrew Komarov, who have been nearly flawless since an opening-day defeat against New Trier in boys tennis doubles action this spring.
The No. 1 tandem from Stevenson dispatched a pair of opponents on the first day of the prestigious Tom Pitchford 32 hosted by Hersey and will now meet a quality duo from Edwardsville, Logan Ware/Jack Desse, in a quarterfinal match at Buffalo Grove when the second day of play begins at 8 a.m. Saturday.
"That loss to the Bickel brothers (of New Trier) gave us a real dose of reality," said Komarov, who along with his partner look to use a successful weekend as a springboard to a bigger catch -- a state title -- a month from now.
"Andrew and I knew we played poorly against New Trier," said Harvey, "but we also know it got us to refocus on our game, and a long season leading up the state tournament. So that loss will pay off in the end."
The Pats duo, now 9-1, needed little time to record straight-set victories over Metamora and then Naperville Central's Bill Zhang/Wesley Lo to quickly get out of yet another windy, cold and dreary day.
The front draw at doubles will see the field at No. 1 open at Buffalo Grove on Saturday morning, while the No. 2's play at Rolling Meadows. The winners all advance to join the No. 1 and No. 2 singles quarterfinalists at Hersey.
Consolation play continues throughout the day at various venues around the area as champions are crowned at all four flights.
There were no surprises at singles, with the top four seeds -- Martin Joyce (Hinsdale Central), Alex Galoustian (New Trier), Ben VanDixHorn (Libertyville) and Peter Tarwid (Lake Forest) -- easily advancing.
Two of the state's top No. 2 players, Christian San Andres of Downers Grove South and freshman Stefano Tsorotiotis of Libertyville, had an easy time at Palatine to make the quarterfinals.
One of the key second-round matches at No. 1 was between Tony Leto of Downers Grove South and Rolling Meadows sophomore Mack Galvin. Leto took a two-setter from the reigning MSL champ 6-4, 6-1 to earn a place opposite the defending state champ Joyce.
"It was tough out there with the cold, and all the wind," said Leto. "But it's been like that all spring, so you just end up getting used to it, and playing through it all." "Mack is a very good young player, so it was important to play smart and simple, and put points away when they were out there."
Galvin, whose only other loss of the season was to St. Charles East senior Jasper Koenen, praised his opponent for his ability to grind out at win and hit winning shots with pace and accuracy.
"I had seen Tony play before, but we never competed against each other. He does a great job hitting his passing shots," said Galvin, who next meets Justin Gillette of Naperville Central at Prospect.
There was one big surprise at Buffalo Grove when the team of Miles Blim-Jonah Philion (Oak Park-River Forest) stunned 3-4 seed Lake Forest (Scott Christian-Connor O'Kelly) in three sets (7-5, 1-6, 6-4) in the opening round. The OPRF duo went on to meet Barrington's Ishaan Jaglan/Scott Apland in a second-rounder Friday afternoon.
The Broncos' No. 2 team, Matt Mulligan and Vijay Tripuraneni, opened with a pair of straight-set victories at Rolling Meadows and next face 1-2 seed Bickel/Hanley of New Trier.

We believe that part of the answer lies in pricing energy on the basis of its full costs to society. One reason we use energy so lavishly today is that the price of energy does not include all of the social costs of producing it. The costs incurred in protecting the environment and the health and safety of workers, for example, are part of the real costs of producing energy-but they are not now all included in the price of the product.

CORAL SPRINGS — The Panthers held their player-exit meetings Monday at Saveology.com Iceplex, an apt description befitting an organization in a state of flux.
The evaluation sessions were not conducted by coach Pete DeBoer because he was fired during a Sunday morning meeting with General Manager Dale Tallon at BankAtlantic Center.
So DeBoer held his farewell press conference in a nondescript children's party room at the training facility, far removed from the departing players and out of camera view of any Panthers' logos.
"When you do this job you pour everything into it, your heart your soul,'' said DeBoer, who will serve as an assistant coach for Team Canada at the upcoming International IIHF World Championship under Ken Hitchcock.
"There's laughter, there's tears. It's all encompassing. It disappears. There's a vacuum there. You're left to deal with that.
"What doesn't kill you makes you stronger and again I'm very appreciative of how I was treated and the people, players and management, I got a chance to work with.''
DeBoer, known for his intense micromanaging, seemed to choke up when asked about telling his three children that he had been fired.
"That's probably the toughest conversation I had was with them,'' he said. "When your Dad picks this as a profession, that's what you deal with. Not unlike a lot of people in North America and especially in Florida, they're not the only ones dealing with a father without a job.''
Tallon lauded DeBoer for his work ethic, class and coaching skills, but said he felt the franchise needed a, "different voice,'' or someone, "like me,'' to lead the rebuilt franchise to respectability.

The last time CNN paired Anderson Cooper with Kathy Griffin to welcome in the new year the reality show staple pretended to fellate the silver-haired anchor.
America cringed. New CNN head honcho Jeff Zucker apparently felt a burst of inspiration.
The ratings-starved network brought the two together again this week, according to Deadline.com. The site reports Cooper and Griffin taped a pilot for a possible new show with Zucker himself on hand to consider the combination.
I hear the duo filmed a pilot today at the CNN studios in the Time Warner Center in New York. Details about the hourlong project are sketchy, but I've learned that it had a lot of humor in it and filmed in front of a live audience.
For too long CNN has aped the liberal leanings of MSNBC. Perhaps Zucker is looking toward reality TV high jinks as one solution for its ratings woes.
