TOKYO (Reuters) - Japanese chipmaker Renesas Electronics Corp received on Monday the 150 billion yen ($1.53 billion) bailout pledged last year by a government-led fund and major customers to aid the company's restructuring efforts.
Eight of Renesas' customers, including Toyota Motor Corp, Panasonic Corp and Nissan Motor Co Ltd paid just over 12 billion yen through a third-party share allocation and the government-led fund contributed the rest.
Hit by slumping orders and competition from competitors such as Samsung Electronics Co Ltd, Renesas was given a lifeline from the government-led fund last December to counter an earlier bid by U.S. private equity firm KKR & Co LP.

Being pigeonholed into a category, sound or style isn't something most musicians appreciate. Still, qualifiers like "we don't really fit into any category" sound nebulous and self-important--and could be the kiss of death for a genre-defying band trying to be heard.
But what if your sound really doesn't fit squarely into any category? Simple. You make a new one.
When Angel Garcia and Greg Hernandez of the Los Angeles-based band Mezklah are asked to describe their music, the simple answer they give is "tribal electronica." Their album, SpiderMonkey, contains the recognizable sounds of cumbia and afro-Cuban with heavy Latin inspiration. But the added element of electronic and jungle beats makes Mezklah too round a peg to fit in the square slot of the Latin genre.
"I know there are other bands who are going into the realm of electronica," Garcia says. "We're trying to do it in a different way. We're trying to inspire."
The term "electronica" might lead you to believe Mezklah is a techno band, while "tribal" is used to describe a subgenre of house music. Garcia says they picked the word "tribal" to refer to their drum-and-bass roots and the global inspirations they draw from, such as Middle Eastern, African and Mexican.
"My dad played guitar and accordion [music] of Mexican decent," Garcia says. "He was playing all the time. We always heard his songs and that carried through with me."
The first song on SpiderMonkey, "Fogata," leads in with Garcia on acoustic guitar, the sharp blast of a solitary trumpet and Cuban drumming, followed by an electronic beat and Garcia's passionate Spanish-language lyrics. It's a subtle introduction to an electronica-heavy album, which emerges later in songs like "Quiero Cocido" and "Passion in the Flesh."
Garcia says the vibe he hopes Mezklah kicks out is that of hopefulness and healthy rebellion. "I cringe sometimes when [people] say, 'Oh, this Chicano band.' And I think, 'Oh, why?' It's not that I'm not proud of heritage. It's just that the minute that happens, it kind of separates it. Now you're [that Chicano band]. ... It's not just a Hispanic thing. It's not just a black thing. Fuck all that. It's just about people, about human beings."

The City of Dallas Department of Aviation has taken steps to try and tear down this historic piece of Dallas history. Their track record for historical preservation proves they do not care about honoring those who contributed to Dallas aviation history. Please help us save this historic building by supporting our efforts to designate this building a state historic landmark.
Click here to see our plans on what could be done to restore this facility into a viable aviation contributor!
In 1955 Braniff International Airways experienced unprecedented growth in its operations. To support this effort, Braniff announced a $6.5MM project to expand its operations base to the Lemmon Avenue side of Dallas Love Field. The announcement set off a $20MM development chain that was sponsored by the issuance of revenue bonds by the City of Dallas. A groundbreaking was held March 21, 1957 and the building was dedicated on October 7, 1958.
The marquis building was to become the Braniff Operations and Maintenance Base, a 450,000 square foot facility that would employ 1,750 highly skilled workers in all aspects of flight. Its construction by famed Los Angeles futurist architects William Pereira and Charles Luckman serves as the only example of such style in Dallas.
Occupied by Braniff Airways until the bankruptcy forced a split in December of 1983, it was then operated by a division of Braniff called DalFort Aerospace. The company was eventually sold and the building has been empty since 1993. In 2012, the City of Dallas has indicated its intent to demolition the building in favor of new development.

State Parks + Other Locations To Go 'Leaf Peeping' in Western New York
With the Bills almost on your TV, high schoolers getting into the spirit with crazy-themed homecoming days, Halloween costumes lining the shelves of every store, and too many pictures of pumpkin spice lattes on Instagram, it's clear that autumn is here.
Whether it's your favorite season or you're still mourning the loss of our brief summer, there's one thing about fall that we definitely take for granted in Buffalo: the foliage. People in other states have to travel just to see what we have (possibly literally) right in our backyards. Luckily, as of the beginning of October, our leaves haven't fully changed and fallen yet like most places in New York. So if you're looking for something relaxing to do this week, why not check out some of the most beautiful leaves in Western New York?
Here's a list of places to go to check out one of fall's greatest assets – right up there with pumpkin spice lattes, of course.
State Parks
State parks highlight the beauty of every season, but especially fall! With an abundance of trees, they'll certainly look colorful as fall progresses. We recommend just about any park, but some in particular are:
Letchworth State Park
1 Letchworth State Park, Castile
Although it's a bit of a drive for most Buffalonians, Letchworth State Park is known for its incredible views. While in the Letchworth area, be sure to check out the leaves changing around Chautauqua Lake.
Amherst State Park & Glen Park
400 Mill St., Buffalo
Although it's small, Amherst State Park and Glen Park, both located just between Amherst and the Village of Williamsville, is the perfect place for a walk through trails and to enjoy the colors of the new season.
Allegany State Park
Allegany State Park has not only one of the best displays of fall colors in the area, but it's among the best in the state, too. This is the largest state park in New York and includes hiking trails.
Whirpool State Park
3180 De Veaux Woods Dr., Niagara Falls
Whirpool State Park's hiking trails possess some of the most beautiful views imaginable. With an abundance of trees overlooking the Niagara River, this is an experience that receives no complaints. Here in Buffalo, we often take having one of the wonders of the world in our backyard for granted. After this trail, you certainly won't.
Other Areas
Other locations also have an excellent view of the changing scenery.
Chestnut Ridge Park
Orchard Park
Named for the chestnut trees on its hills, Chestnut Ridge is a premier destination for hiking and admiring the color change.
450 S 4th St., Lewiston
Lewiston is a lovely, quaint town, where the view of the Niagara River is breathtaking. The changing leaves are a sight to see!
Hoyt Lake
Parkside and Elmwood Avenue, Buffalo
Hoyt Lake is often underrated, but nonetheless, it's one of the nicest areas in Buffalo to just sit and enjoy the view. Visitors comment that it is typically "not crowded" because often, we take the area for granted. Located right in Delaware Park, Hoyt Lake is an enjoyable place to see the changing colors, and when you're done, walk around Elmwood and find new places to love in the city.
Forest Lawn Cemetery
1411 Delaware Ave., Buffalo
Forest Lawn is a naturally beautiful place located right in between the city's streets. While we'd recommend every park in Buffalo, Forest Lawn is a place many Buffalonians never visit but should. Take a tour of one of the most breathtaking places in the city and enjoy watching the leaves change by the water.
According to ellicottvilleny.com, Ellicottville is a "hiker's paradise." Commonly known for its ski slopes, Ellicottville is stunning for a unique reason each season. Take a trip out to Ellicottville and just enjoy the natural beauty.
Reinstein Woods Nature Preserve
Honorine Drive, Depew
Whether you wish to take a free guided tour or explore on your own, this area is among Buffalo's best, full of acres of forests and ponds in Depew.
Fall Foliage Train Tours
Medina Railroad Museum
530 West Ave., Medina
This train's tickets range from $20-25, and it takes visitors on a tour of some of New York's most beautiful colors. Ticket price includes museum admission.
Arcade and Attica Railroad
278 Main St., Arcade
These two-hour fall foliage runs visit the magnificent countryside in Wyoming County. Tickets are $15.
While this is an extensive list, there are surely many more hidden gems in the Buffalo area. If nothing else, take a drive through a town like East Aurora. You'll be amazed at how beautiful Western New York really is!

Czech and Greece are terrible, reckon they might be the two worst teams in the tournament after Ireland. Basically a bonus round for whoever gets out of the group of death.
Bit harsh on the Czech's I would say, they are not good but tidy enough after their poor first game.
Czechs clearly better than Poland IMO

Don't know whether it's a compliment or not though. Poland were clearly better than Greece, but totally choked, whereas Czech were under a lot of pressure for much of their game against Greece but still scrapped a win. There's a lot to be said for finding a way through in spite of your total ****eness.
Poland had a bit of the ball first half last night, but given how the Czechs stepped up after the break when they knew they needed to score I think they were more than happy with the draw which would've taken them through had the Greeks not scored.
If they had a less turd striker than Baros they could've had three easily. Even the ball he played for Jiracek's goal was ordinary. Left the bearded winger with an awful lot to do.
Can't believe Baros is still only 30. Has packed a lot of direness into those years.
Cricket Web's current Premier League Tipping Champion
- As featured in The Independent.
"At this point, the merciful thing to do may be to put up one of those big green curtains they use when a horse falls at a racecourse, to spare the crowd the sight, and afford the man some privacy, for the ruthless but necessary end of his Test career." - The Guardian's Andy Bull on Keaton Jennings
Poland in all their games were capable of 20 minute spells of being really rather good but fairly hopeless the rest of the time.
Brolin was quality at USA 94 as well.
Sweden had a really good time round then. Finished 3rd at that WC I believe.

Oxford Community Schools' Virtual Academy
Michigan School District Virtually Bucks Spending Cuts Trend
(Permission to rebroadcast in whole or in part is hereby granted. A courtesy super or CG crediting the Mackinac Center would be appreciated.)
Many school districts in Michigan claim state budget cuts have forced
them to make drastic reductions in programs and course offerings. This
is not the case in Oxford Community Schools, which has added sports
teams, doubled its entire fine arts program and created an orchestra and
world language programs.
The district also has developed a virtual academy, which is anticipated to double enrollment within the next five years. In this video, you'll meet the minds behind the virtual endeavor, as well as students, a parent and teacher who are excited to take learning to a new cyber level.

Girls still lag behind boys in science, say researchers -- and it's in middle school that their scores start to head south. Why? They may be losing interest because they're not encouraged properly, says Joan Herbers, dean of the College of Biological Sciences at The Ohio State University in Columbus and mom of two.
Besides simply telling your child that you think science matters, there are some effective ways to incorporate science into her life:
Take it outside. Watch what's happening in your own backyard. Have your child keep track of things like the temperature or the time the sun sets: She can plot them on a graph and learn a few things about how the world turns.
Watch scientific TV shows and movies together. Discovery Kids has great programs, but don't overlook Discovery's other channels (Discovery, The Sci-ence Channel, Animal Planet) or the National Geographic Channel. Plenty of their specials are suitable for preteens.
Look it up. When your child wonders about the world, encourage that inquisitive mind and show her how to find the answers. Some great sites for kids: • Extremescience.com • The American Museum of Natural History's site, ology.amnh.org • The popular PBS show Zoom! posts dozens of simple science experiments kids will have a blast doing right at home. Find them at pbskids.org/zoom/activities/sci.

John Antonik, MSNsportsNET.com
So, West Virginia has won three different BCS bowl games in the last six years - with three different coaches no less.
What to make of this?
Well, first of all, it puts the Mountaineers in a pretty select group of college football programs that have won three or more of these since the system was created in 1998 – eight programs to be exact.
There's Ohio State, USC, Florida, LSU, Texas, Miami and Oklahoma that have won at least three BCS bowl games in the last 14 years. And now, um, catch your breath here, West Virginia.
That's right, good old West Virginia, tucked up in the mountains between Pennsylvania, Ohio, Kentucky, Maryland and Virginia - in case there are any well-paid college football announcers or ESPN promo writers out there still confused about where the school is located - a program that's been around for 119 years and just seems to keep winning football games without a whole lot of chest thumping.
There are only 14 programs that have more than 700 victories in the entire history of major college football, and did you realize that West Virginia is one of them?
Folks, these are the biggest of the big - schools such as Michigan, Texas, Notre Dame, Nebraska, Alabama, Penn State, Oklahoma, Ohio State, Tennessee, USC, Georgia, LSU and Auburn. We hear about them all the time – the schools every college football fan wants their program to be like.
And guess what, right there with them is West Virginia.
In fact, the next school to reach 700 victories - either Syracuse, Georgia Tech or possibly Virginia Tech - is still going to need about four more years to get there if they don't average 10 wins per season over the next three.
Most impressive, perhaps, is not West Virginia's recent run over the last seven years, averaging 10 wins per season and finishing in the national rankings in six out of those seven years; the school's BCS bowl wins or all those New Year's Day bowl appearances.
No, what is truly amazing is how successful this program has been throughout its history.
Did you realize that with the exception of two down periods in the late 1970s, and in the late 1950s and early 1960s, West Virginia has never experienced any long bouts of losing? Just four losing seasons in the late 1970s and four losing campaigns at the end of the 50s and the start of the 60s, that's it.
Every single decade going all the way back to the 1890s has been a winning one. That's the 1890s.
That is absolutely phenomenal when you think about it.
Since 1980 when Don Nehlen took over the Mountaineer program, West Virginia has had just five losing campaigns in the last 32 years.
How can a school in a state with less than two million people that produces just one or two Division-I prospects a year (in a good year) be so successful?
Well, it's because the people here care deeply about the program. How else can you explain it? How can three different coaches – Rich Rodriguez, Bill Stewart and Dana Holgorsen – win three different BCS bowl games in a span of six years at the same place?
LSU, the only other college football program with an unblemished BCS bowl mark among schools with three or more appearances, has done it with two – Nick Saban and Les Miles. That's LSU, surrounded by all those great football players in the powerful Southeastern Conference with all that tradition.
But how can this be at West Virginia?
Again, there is only one answer - it's because West Virginians care.
They spend their hard-earned money to come to the games and support the team. They pack up their cars, their vans and their RVs and they travel to far-off places to cheer on their Mountaineers. They call in to radio shows and write emails whenever they feel their team has been wronged or slighted.
For West Virginians, Mountaineer football is a love affair that lasts a lifetime.
Never was that more apparent than when the team buses reached I-79's West Virginia University exit during its return from the 2012 Discover Orange Bowl, an incomprehensible, unimaginable, unbelievable 70-33 demolition of Clemson. The records from that game are too numerous to recite, although the stories about it will be recited around here forever.
As the six charters transporting the team snaked their way toward Milan Puskar Stadium behind a police escort, motorists stopped their cars to honk their horns. Some rolled down their windows to give a thumbs-up or to applaud their performance; others shouted words of encouragement. Construction workers stopped what they were doing to acknowledge the players, one or two of them even taking off their hard hats in appreciation of a job well done.
Children in school buses pulled their windows down and stuck their heads out to get a closer look at their passing heroes. You could see sprinkled among them some blue Tavon Austin and Geno Smith jerseys. I imagine many of those kids were still a little sleepy after begging their parents to let them to stay up well past midnight to watch Rece Davis hand the Orange Bowl championship trophy over to Dana Holgorsen.
Many of the local businesses already had their signs up with messages of congratulations, wisely mixing praise with commerce.
In most places when traffic is stopped it's a nuisance. On Thursday afternoon going through Morgantown it was a cause for celebration.
It was certainly a sight to behold.
This only happens in places where the people care deeply about their program – which also happens to be some of the best places in all of college football.

Linking water quality and aquatic life
AQUATOX is a simulation model for aquatic systems. AQUATOX predicts the fate of various pollutants, such as nutrients and organic chemicals, and their effects on the ecosystem, including fish, invertebrates, and aquatic plants. This model is a valuable tool for ecologists, biologists, water quality modelers, and anyone involved in performing ecological risk assessments for aquatic ecosystems. Although incorporating constructs from classic ecosystem and chemodynamic models, AQUATOX was developed from the beginning as an applied model for use by environmental analysts.
An updated version of Release 3.1 of AQUATOX is now available. Release 3.1 contains several enhancements over previous releases that improve the model's interface and utility. For example, the sediment diagenesis model has a "steady-state" mode that increases model speed dramatically. Other categories of refinements include floating-plants refinements, bioaccumulation and toxicity modeling improvements, and improved sensitivity and uncertainty analyses.
The new updates to Release 3.1 include an option to model nutrient limitation in plants based on internal rather than external nutrients, which should improve the prediction of the timing and duration of algal blooms. Among the other enhancements in the update is the output of additional ecological metrics such as net primary productivity and fish biomass.
AQUATOX Release 2 underwent an external peer review in late 2003. Release 3 underwent external peer review in late 2008.

CLIVIGER is joining the party for the 26th annual Burnley International Rock and Blues Festival this weekend.
From Friday to Sunday, the newly-refurbished Kettledrum Inn will host a bevy of American Deep South blues and modern acoustic rock.
Elsewhere in the festival's line-up, chart-topping band Lawson, who support Jessie J on her next tour, will perform at Burnley College on Sunday, while veteran British blues band The Hoax, who stormed the scene in the 1990s, are on the main stage at Burnley Mechanics on Saturday night.
Top international performers will also grace the New Orleans stage at the Kettledrum in Red Lees Road for the first time, something new co-owner and festival organiser Steve Reid is very excited about.
He said: "The pub is a lovely edition to the festival. We've completely overhauled it and made it beautiful and quirky here, while still being a traditional pub with great real ales, ciders and lagers.
"I think the best way of bringing a town up is through the arts and media, and it's great to be able to include Cliviger in the festival."
Steve, who is also a music producer and had two Top 40 hits last year with boy band ReConnected, said this year's festival would have something for everyone.
He added: "We've got a really good taxi service running so people will be able to have a drink and not have to worry about getting home. We've got camping at Burnley Rugby Club, so everything's going well."
At the Kettledrum on Friday, there will be unplugged sessions featuring Bear, Baxter Rhodes and melodic folk singer Maelor Hughes.
The following day, Serious Sam Barrett and Squeezebox Bob will open for Martyn Roper, a guitar and banjoist who works in blues, jazz and folk from the '20s, '30s and '40s.
On Sunday, Lucy Zirins will support Tom Attah, an acoustic blues artist influenced by the rhythms of Howlin' Wolf, accompanied by his barrel-chested vocals.

Defense Shines as Saints Win Third Straight, 31-7
The Arizona Cardinals marched down the field with the opening kickoff to take an early 7-0 lead over the New Orleans Saints at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome Sunday afternoon.
That was all they got.
The Saints defense came up big the rest of the way, holding Arizona scoreless the rest of the game.
Meanwhile, Drew Brees threw for 342 yards and three touchdowns, plus scored another himself as the Saints handled the Cardinals 31-7.
TE Jimmy Graham had his second straight fine performance, catching nine passes for 134 yards and two touchdowns.
Alfonso Smith scored from three yards out for the early lead, but the Saints answered right back on the following drive, with Brees hitting Robert Meachum from 27 yards out to tie the score.
The two defenses took over for the rest of the half, until Brees hit Graham for a 16 yard score to give the Saints a 14-7 lead at the half.
After a Garrett Hartley field goal made the score 17-7 in the third quarter, the Saints got two fourth quarter touchdowns, as Brees ran the ball in from seven yards out and then hit Graham with a seven yard pass with 5:25 left to end the scoring.
The Saints had minus four yards rushing at the half, but ended with 103. Rookie Khiry Robinson led the way with 38 yards on just four carries, all coming in the fourth quarter. Pierre Thomas had 28 yards on eleven carries, while Brees added 21 on six rushes.
Marcus Colston was the second leading receiver with 71 yards on five catches.
Carson Palmer was harrassed by the Saints defense all afternoon. He was sacked four times and intercepted twice. The Saints held Arizona to 247 yards of offense. Kenny Vaccaro and Keenan Lewis had the interceptions for the Saints.
New Orleans hosts Miami next Monday night at the Dome.

The mission of the Professional Development and Research Institute on Blindness is to prepare highly qualified professionals to educate and rehabilitate individuals who are blind or visually impaired, and to conduct research that broadens and deepens our understanding about blindness and the best methods for increasing independence for individuals who are blind or visually impaired.
Founded in 1996 with the help of an experimental/innovative grant from the U.S. Department of Education, the Institute on Blindness was established to create the first non-discriminatory program in equipping people interested in teaching cane travel and braille to blind students using Structured Discovery Cane Travel (SDCT)™ methods and principles. Using this methodology, we have proven over the last two decades, that it is the non-visual techniques that keep blind people safe while learning to travel…not the instructor's visual acuity. All PDRIB programs are based fundamentally on the premise that structured discovery methods, positive attitudes about blindness, and high expectations for performance are the keys for helping children and adults who are blind or visually impaired to become independent, productive members of society.ASICS Tiger Unisex Gel-DS Trainer OG Asics 4703 Blue Gel-DS/Asics OG Blue 1176d28
The Institute on Blindness provides outstanding professional preparation for individuals entering the field of working with blind children or adults, and our graduates have been eagerly sought after by employers from all across the United States in both public and private sectors.
We are committed to providing leadership in creating programs and conducting research that empowers blind individuals not only to live independently, but also to participate fully in society. We take pride in maintaining high academic standards. The Master's degree programs at Louisiana Tech University are non-discriminatory and designed to exceed the standards and competencies of traditional university training programs.
The Institute on Blindness has worked in partnership with the Louisiana Center for the Blind, one of the leading adult orientation and adjustment training centers in the United States, to develop rigorous and high quality graduate degree programsProfessional Development
The Professional Development and Research Institute on Blindness offers three Graduate degree programs, each of which is designed to provide high quality education and support for students.
The Masters of Arts in Counseling and Guidance / Orientation and Mobility program remains the only university-based degree program that prepares individuals to teach cane travel skills to children and adults who are blind or visually impaired using Structured Discovery Cane Travel (SDCT)™ methods and principles. Core to this program, all students undergo a minimum of 400 hours of immersion in blindness, where all students (blind and sighted) wear blindfolds eight hours per day learning nonvisual skills for accomplishing travel skills safely and efficiently.
The Master of Arts in Counseling and Guidance / Rehabilitation Teaching for the Blind program was founded in 2014 and is designed to teach a broad range of skills, including cane travel, braille, activities of daily living, and access technology to children and adults. Similarly, students matriculating through the RTB program begin their training through immersion in foundational nonvisual skills based on Structured Discovery methods and principles.
The Master of Arts in Teaching / Teaching Blind Students program prepares teachers of children who are blind or visually impaired the skills necessary to educate children with visual impairments in the regular and specialized classroom settings. Foundational to this program, all students must demonstrate mastery in reading and writing the Unified English Braille code before student teaching. Teachers gain a deep understanding about the impact of attitudes and expectations on education, and are given broad exposure to Access Technology, and the Expanded Core Curriculum.
Regardless of which degree track is right for you, all individuals seeking to become students at Louisiana Tech should be familiar with information related to applying to the University.Research
The Professional Development and Research Institute on Blindness at Louisiana Tech University also provides information to the broader community about blindness, dispelling misconceptions, and promoting training and education about the potential of individuals who are blind or visually impaired.
The Critical Concerns in Blindness book series provides in-depth discourse into specific strategies for training young children and adults in ways that capitalize on their strengths and promotes the capacity, rather than deficiencies of individuals living with vision loss. From mobility concepts for teaching very young children the importance of movement, helping parents to get the best educational experience for their children, to the methods and principals that underlie high quality rehabilitation training for adults and seniors.
Our Research Reports serve as a centralized location highlighting some of the contemporary research being done in the area of training and education for individuals who are blind or visually impaired, and provides links to download these reports directly. The latest employment and rehabilitation statistics on the lived experiences of adults who are blind or visually impaired, Research on reliability and validity of reading media assessments necessary for educating children with a visual impairment, and research on the role of attitudes, expectations, and mentoring on the lives of children and adults who are blind or visually impaired are a few of the reports you will find here.
In an effort to impact the field more broadly, we work to provide continuing education opportunities to professionals nationwide in the areas of Structured Discovery, teaching, and braille literacy. We also work closely with the National Blindness Professional Certification Board to ensure high-quality certification standards for professionals who wish to teach Orientation and Mobility, Rehabilitation Teaching, or Braille literacy.Teva ALP Premier - Men Black Hishoes Men and Women Ultra-Soft Quick Drying Aqua Water Shoes Lightweight Walking Sneakers Summer Anti-Slip Hiking Shoes Green FCKEE Water Sports Shoes Barefoot Quick-Dry Aqua Yoga Socks Slip-On for Men Women Kids Bl.colorful , adituo Water Sports Shoes Aqua Barefoot Socks Pool Beach Swim Exercise for Women and Men Change Gray Nocona Boots Men s Let s Rodeo 11 Inch Western Riding Boot Royal Rodeo/Tan Solovair Men s 8 Eye Derby Made in England Black , Oxypas Women s Aline LBL Medical & Safety footware White & Light Blue , Abby 004 Womens Body Strap Latin Peep-toe Lace Professional Dance-shoes , Gold Pigeon Shoes 50 Shades Of Closed Toe~ Dance Dress Shoes Collection (Low, Mid & High Heel), Evening Wedding Pumps: Women Ballroom, Tango, Smooth, Standard, Tango, Theather Art by Party Party , Journee Collection Womens Regular Sized, Wide-Calf and Extra Wide-Calf Buckle Slouch Low-Wedge Boot Grey Birkenstock Women s Madrid Leather Sandals Black Patent Earth Everwood Black Sanita Women s Inga Open Mule Beige , NIKE Men s Train Prime Iron DF Cross Training Shoe, Black/White/Anthracite/Cool Grey, 14 D(M) US - , Reebok Men s Legacy Lifter Sneaker Black/White/Silver 1 Aerosoles Women s Around Riding Boot Black FootJoy Men s VersaLuxe Golf Shoe Wide Luggage Caramello , Aerosoles Women s Upper Level Flat Blue Combo Skechers Women s Go Walk Lite-15392 Ballet Flat Gray mewow Women s Girl s Low Top Platform Wedge Hidden-Heel Sporty Sneakers Orthopedic Running Shoes 8391 Mesh Black Pink , Nike Women s Flex Trainer 5 Shoe Tea Berry / Metallic Silver , Supra - Mens Flow Skate Shoes Olive-gum Vans Unisex Authentic Black Canvas VN000EE3BLK Skate Shoe Black/Black , DC Men s Heathrow Casual Skate Shoe Grey/Black/Green Mephisto Women s Poppy Tuxedo Oxford Navy Silencio/Hazelnut Mano , TOMS Kids 10009918 Alpargata-K Steel Grey/Slub , Tretorn Women s Nylite Plus Fashion Sneaker Black , NIKE Men s SB Blazer Zoom Low XT Skate Shoe Black/White Gum/Light Brown , Seraph Of The End Yuichiro Hyakuya Mikaela Hyakuya Cosplay Shoes Canvas Shoes Sneakers Red , Rockport Women s Cobb Hill Angelina Dress Pump Tan Multi

MIAMI (AP) — A federal judge in Florida says Abercrombie & Fitch Co. didn't violate trademark rules by producing a shirt playing on the nickname of Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino of TV's "Jersey Shore."
Sorrentino's company sued the clothing company in 2011 over its shirt containing the phrase "The Fitchuation." Sorrentino claimed that amounted to trademark infringement and other violations of his nickname, which is based on his abdominal muscles.
But U.S. Magistrate Judge John O'Sullivan recently ruled for Abercrombie and tossed the case. O'Sullivan concluded that the company marketed the shirt as a parody and that Sorrentino's company didn't start selling its own shirt until later. And the judge found the products are not the same and thus can't confuse consumers.

HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — An emotional Gov. Dannel P. Malloy recalled Monday how and why he decided to be the one to tell the families of the elementary school shooting victims that their loved ones were dead.
Malloy told reporters during a news conference at the State Capitol that he sensed a "reluctance" by officials to tell the anxious group waiting for news at the Sandy Hook firehouse "that the person they were waiting for was not going to return."
The normally businesslike Malloy, who choked up and wiped away tears, had to pause several times to regain his composure as he explained how he didn't think it was right for the families to wait a long time for the victims to be identified.
"I made the decision that — to have that go on any longer — was wrong," he said.
Twenty-year-old gunman Adam Lanza stormed Sandy Hook Elementary School on Friday after first killing his mother. He later killed 20 students, ages 6 and 7, and six female staff at the school before committing suicide.
On Monday, Malloy attended the funeral of 6-year-old Noah Pozner while Lt. Gov. Nancy Wyman attended the funeral of 6-year-old Jack Pinto. The governor said he hopes to attend as many of the funerals for the Newtown victims as possible. In cases where there are conflicts, such as on Monday, he and Wyman will attend services separately.
Malloy said there are no words to describe the grief he has witnessed in recent days. He also spoke of the difficulty in trying to find the right thing to say to the families.
"You try to feel their pain, but you can't. You try to find some words that you hope will be adequate, knowing that they will be inadequate, and you see little coffins and your heart has to ache," Malloy said. "So, you tell them that you grieve for their loss, you give them a hug and you tell them their community, their state and their nation and dare I say the whole world stands with them, and you hope that makes some difference."
Malloy also spoke to reporters for the need to resurrect a federal ban on assault weapons. He said in Connecticut, a state considered to have tough gun laws, the General Assembly should consider banning high capacity magazines of ammunition, such as the 30 rounds Lanza was carrying. The new legislative session begins in January.

But you've got to keep the weeds out
It is surprising how many gardeners have approached me with questions regarding controlling weeds in their asparagus beds. I am glad to see a growing number of gardeners growing asparagus because it is a crop that you have to plant only once for many years' harvest. It is a delicious vegetable that can be grilled, steamed, marinated or smothered with Hollandaise sauce or cheese. This year I planted a new bed of an only-male purple variety. Male plants are preferred because they do not develop seeds but produce more spears.
It is difficult to control weeds with a hoe during the cutting season, as it often results in cutting or damaging the spear tops or scarring the stems of spears that have emerged.
When the soil is dry, I use an onion hoe. Pushing the blade forward and pulling backwards on the surface of the dry soil is generally sufficient to sever the top of the young weeds from their roots while hardly disturbing the soil or damaging the spears. However, this year we have not had the opportunity to see dry soils, and the scraping technique does not work well on wet soils.
This year, I have been spraying young weeds with horticultural vinegar immediately after cutting asparagus. (Horticultural vinegar is available from www.amleo.com.) I use very low pressure and direct a coarse spray on the weeds. If you accidentally spray a young emerging spear, it will only scorch the surface lightly, which may detract from the appearance but will not harm the flavor when cut and cooked. Horticultural vinegar is strictly a contact weed killer, but it is deadly on young tender weeds.
To succeed in growing asparagus, you need to keep the bed weed-free through the year. I can remember when home gardeners sprinkled rock salt over the asparagus beds to control weeds. However, following repeated applications over several years, they would see their yields decline due to salt accumulation in the soil.
My method of keeping the asparagus weed-free through the year is to hand-weed the bed soon after the last cutting of asparagus and apply Preen, a pre-emergent herbicide, as recommended. Preen is a very mild weed killer containing fluoride. Two applications approximately six weeks apart are generally adequate for controlling weeds during the growing season.
In late September, I sow winter rye grass over my asparagus bed as well as in my garden. The rye grass suffocates winter weeds over late fall and winter months. In the spring, I mow down the rye grass and rototill the beds shallow so as not to damage the roots of the asparagus plants. I do not mulch my asparagus beds. Mulching asparagus beds delays early spring growth.

Stretch Marks for Dads
What fatherhood does to the body and the brain.
Emily Anthes chatted online with readers about this article on June 14. Read the transcript here.
Last weekend, Tufts University hosted a scientific conference on the "parental brain." Or at least the maternal brain, which was the subject of eight symposia, while fathers and their brains were the focus of just one. Once, this imbalance would have seemed inevitable, since there didn't seem to be much to say about how becoming a father affects men physically. But now, evidence is accumulating that pregnancy and parenthood leave their marks on men's bodies. Women are not the only ones who are built for parenting, and recognizing that is good for fathers and the rest of us, too.
Historically, when men did more than donate sperm to a pregnancy—by suffering physical ailments along with their wives—they got called crazy. The condition labeled "sympathetic pregnancy," or couvade syndrome (from the French word couver, or "to incubate"), describes expectant fathers who are stricken with some combination of weight gain, nausea, food cravings, backaches, insomnia, and other delights familiar to pregnant women everywhere. Until recently, couvade was relegated to the overwrought TV medical drama as a "psychosomatic" curiosity, with a list of potential causes that would please any Freudian (identification with the fetus, pregnancy envy, pseudo-sibling rivalry).
But in the last handful of years, scientists have shown that normal, healthy, non-pregnancy-envying men often undergo real bodily changes when they're expecting children. Research shows that male marmosets and cotton-top tamarins—primates that, like humans, split child-rearing duties between the mother and father—gain as much as 20 percent of their body weight while waiting for the birth of their offspring. The finding suggests that couvade is biologically adaptive rather than psychologically neurotic: The hypothesis about the marmosets and tamarins is that the pregnancy paunch prepares a dad for the extra energy he'll expend in helping to rear his baby.
In addition, dads-to-be have elevated levels of cortisol and prolactin, hormones that are also present in high levels among mothers who are attached and responsive to their children. A father's testosterone level also drops by about a third, on average, in the first three weeks after his child is born. These hormonal shifts, which are likely sparked by exposure to the pregnant woman's hormones (there is correlational evidence that dads who spend time with moms experience the changes), mirror those experienced by mothers and may similarly prepare men for parenthood. Men who have relatively little testosterone have been shown, for instance, to hold baby dolls longer than men who are flooded with the sex hormone. High levels of testosterone, on the other hand, are associated with "incompatible non-nurturing behaviors," as one researcher put it. If dads roared along on their usual levels of the hormone, the theory goes, they'd be too busy fighting other men and seducing other women to do much diaper-changing.
There's also preliminary but tantalizing evidence that fatherhood can change the brain. A 2006 study found enhancements in the prefrontal cortex of the father marmoset. After childbirth, the neurons in this region showed greater connectivity, suggesting that having young children could boost the part of the brain responsible for planning and memory, skills parents need when having kids gives them more to keep track of. The neurons also had more receptors for vasopressin, a hormone that has been shown to prompt animal fathers to bond with offspring. (Receiving an injection of vasopressin, for instance, prompts a male prairie vole to cuddle and groom a youngster.)
And yet despite these findings, few scientists treat the physiology of fathers as a serious subject in its own right. Researchers have been investigating some of the hormonal swings in humans for almost a decade, and longer in other species; still, most of this work remains on the fringe. Between 2000 and 2006, the journal Hormones and Behavior published nearly three times as many studies of mothers as of fathers, and this year the count so far is 16 to three. A 2000 review framed research into physiological fatherhood as "an opportunity to better understand maternal behavior, by studying parental behavior in the absence of pregnancy and lactation." Interest in how men's bodies prepare themselves for fatherhood only seems to matter to the extent it sheds light on mothers. Meanwhile, the ways in which dads screw up their kids is a thriving area of research.
There are probably a variety of reasons for this disconnect. To begin with, couvade hasn't shed all its baggage, and that can make anything reminiscent of the syndrome seem like a subject for a psychiatrist's office rather than a biologist's lab. Also, physiological fatherhood is far from universal in the animal kingdom.In fewer than 10 percent of mammalian species are fathers actually involved in child-rearing. For years, researchers missed the hormonal changes in fathers because they looked only at male rats, which aren't natural caregivers.
Nor have the rest of us seemed eager to pay attention to the recent science about fathers. Few parenting books, even those directed at dads, take note of the findings about their hormones and brains—instead they either go for laughs or stick to counseling men about how to support their pregnant mates. In some ways, that's surprising, given that the gender boundaries of parenting have been eroding for some time now. You'd think that if we're ready for diaper-changing tables in men's restrooms, we'd also be ready to hear about men's hormonal barometers. And yet we don't seem to be. Maybe it seems too unsettling to treat the changes in expectant dads and moms as remotely equivalent.
But it would serve us all to get over that. Ignoring the physiological changes fathers undergo tends to let men off the parenting hook. Recognizing those changes, on the other hand, could make fathers feel more vital to child-rearing. For years, studies have shown (not that we really needed them to) that many men feel marginalized and anxious during pregnancy and the early weeks of their children's lives. But the nascent science of physiological fatherhood has already turned up evidence that shows that men's bodies are busy with their own preparations, even if What To Expect doesn't explain them. Men who worry that they're being thrust into fatherhood without ever learning how to parent might be (at least slightly) reassured to know that their bodies have begun to adapt. Armed with the knowledge that their hormone levels have shifted precisely so they'll be more apt to cuddle their newborns, men may feel entitled to do more of the soothing. Which can only be good for kids—and for tired moms. This Father's Day, it's time to thank dads for all their bodies do.

Junior Miss Plantsville Aurianna Monteiro, along with Plantsville Outstanding teen Katerina Belales, held a walk-a-thon recently to raise money for Connecticut Children's Medical Center.
Aurianna wanted to raise money for the medical center to say thank you for all their care and support when her sister three-year-old sister Ayva was hospitalized. Ayva was born with a cleft lip and palate as well as other medical issues, which left her in and out of the hospital for the first year-and-half of her life. Nicole Monteiro, the mother of Aurianna and Ayva, said the staff members of the hospital were "accommodating" and "caring." They made bracelets with Aurianna during one of her sister's hospital visits.
Nicole said they have raised $150 so far from the walk-a-thon, and the medical center will receive all the proceeds.
"I thought it was great, it really made Aurianna happy and proud to make a difference in her community," she said.
Aurianna is also involved in other community service projects like Relay for Life and the Southington Food Bank. The ten-year-old will raise money for Relay for Life during the Apple Harvest Festival in October.
"I like making people smile," Aurianna said. "It makes me happy to give back to people."
If anyone would like to make a donation, mail the checks to 93 Hitchcock Road.

January 2010
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Kolea 3E – lovely unit, very spacious and well maintained. We enjoyed a wonderful family Christmas – lots of room and very comfortable.
Thank you to Rob for everything you made our stay even better than we could have expected.
Larry & Deb Newton
Our stay at the Kolea 3E condo more then met our expectations. Sitting on the open lanai, over looking the beautiful ocean was fabulous. Looking at the other condos within the same community, we felt that 3E was the perfect location. Directly across the street is an open lot allowing an unobstructed view of the ocean. The condo is a short walk to the pool area, as well as the beach. Kolea 3E also came with all the amenities of home and then some. We were impressed with all the added extras within the condo, from all the kitchenware needed to boogie boards to borrow. Anne and Rob at Waikoloa Vacation Rental Management were friendly and businesslike. All our transactions were handled promplty and professionally. Thank you for the wonderful accommodations and trustworthy business. We hope to return in the near future.
We have returned from our wonderful trip to Hawaii and we would like to thank you for letting us stay at the villa until later on our last day. The weather was perfect on Saturday and we went to the beach and pool.
The villa was perfect. We opened the slider and never had to turn on the air conditioner. It was so nice to enjoy the Hawaiian breezes. We couldn't have asked for a better place. The convenience of getting to the ocean and the pool was wonderful.
Thanks again and we look forward to visiting Kolea again.

How to Use the Images Photos 1 & 2
Photos 1 & 2
Aircraft carriers were a new and untried weapon at the beginning of the war. Both the Japanese and American navies saw their big, heavily armed battleships as their primary offensive weapon. Because so many American battleships were lost on December 7, Admiral Nimitz was more or less forced to rely on his carriers, which were not at Pearl Harbor.
Questions for Photo 3
1. The carriers whose aircraft determined the outcome of the Battle of Midway were located hundreds of miles away from each other. What effect do you think that might have had on the battle?
2. Do you think the loss of the Yorktown affected the outcome of the battle?
3. Does this photo help give you a better sense of what the battle was like? If so, how?
4. The Yorktown was sunk as it was being slowly towed towards Pearl Harbor for repairs. Why do you suppose the Americans went to so much effort to try to save the vessel?
* The photo on this screen has a resolution of 72 dots per inch (dpi), and therefore will print poorly. You can obtain a larger version of Photo 3, but be aware that the file will take as much as 30 seconds to load with a 28.8K modem.

If you're a Greenmarket regular, you may have already run into Laura Sansone's House-Wear Mobile Textile Lab. With her small cart on wheels, she takes an inspiring natural dye process to local farmers markets around the five boroughs. The dyes are made on the spot using seasonal produce from the farm stands, and the wool is sourced from New York State farms. Sansone's cart demonstrates the fusion between textiles, farming, and food, and shows how fashion can be both sustainable and accomplished on a truly local scale.
Laura Sansone is an instructor at Parsons The New School for Design and has been a practicing artist for over 20 years. Her Mobile Textile Lab came to life in 2010 thanks in part to a grant from Parsons. What began as a project constricted to the Union Square Greenmarket, it has now expanded citywide with help from an Atlas Lab mini-grant. City Atlas stated, "Our aim is to seed the city with projects that make life more interesting and that provide practical learning tools." Sansone's project fully meets this criteria.
GrowNYC Greenmarket visitors of all ages curiously stop to see what is brewing in the lab's large, metal pots. Each week promises new inspiration as the dyes on offer are dictated by what's in season. Not only learning about the dyeing process, the public also sees how agriculture, science and design interact to produce naturally-dyed, low impact fibers. Children see how natural food scraps can be transformed into colors before their eyes, and adults learn about the growing season of various plants and how they react to an array of fibers.
The physical lab itself is a simple design comprised of a bamboo surface for chopping and several burners where the large vats of dye are created. Sansone and her student team start by surveying what's available at the Greenmarket where they are based for the day. After selecting the plants and vegetables to be used, they chop and boil them to make the dye. Sansone brings USDA organic cotton and wool from sheep raised on farms in New York State to use as a base to do live demonstrations of the dyeing process. She has also made an effort to collaborate with Wearable Collections to re-make recycled clothing into wearable products that can then be sold back to the community to help raise money for the Collections' projects.
Aside from her educational visits to the city's Greenmarkets, Sansone runs House-Wear out of her studio and home in the Hudson Valley. She produces felt, wool and hand-dyed and printed products as well as a PAPER WEAR collection. The collection is made from light-weight Tyvek and all manufacturing scraps are sent to the Tyvek recycling plant in Richmond, Virginia. Patrons are encouraged to do the same when they grow tired of their garments. House-Wear's gro-wear line also boasts a completely sustainable cycle — its organic cotton, non-toxic components can be composted when they are retired.
Whether you catch her at the Greenmarket or are able to visit her website, Sansone's projects offer fresh insight into the connection between local food production and textile processes. The Mobile Textile Lab grants the opportunity to present the market as a classroom where visitors can be inspired to use local materials and support upstate farms, strengthening local economies. Her next stop will be at the Socrates Sculpture Park Greenmarket in Long Island City this Saturday, October 1st from 9am-3pm.

This past spring break, American Eagle Outfitters took our 16 Project Live Your Life winners to Miami for an adventure of a lifetime. But this trip wasn't your typical vacation filled with beaches and bars- instead, we teamed up with street artist Lakwena, to transform a vacant lot at Wynwood Walls into a work of art. The challenge? The cast had three days to, clear all of the garbage from the lot, assist Lakwena with the design and, lastly, complete the masterpiece.
No one in the cast, including Lakwena, had ever created such a large scale work of art in such a short period of time. Lakwena went as far as to use a projector to show the design on the wall so everyone could help paint the mural, which was something she had never done before.
The theme of the mural matched back to our theme for Spring Break, #HEARTTHISCITY. This mural would accompany Lakwena's other street art installation at Wynwood, "I remember paradise", which explored the theme of the artist as a mythologist. For I remember paradise, Lakwena was inspired by the works of C.S. Lewis and J.R.R Tolkien.
Lakwena's other mural at Wynwood Walls, I remember paradise.
Even though the task seemed impossible, the cast put their entire heart into helping beautify Miami. Everyone worked day and night to put their mark on the Wynwood Walls, all while creating friendships and bonds that would last a lifetime. Watch Project Live Your Life: Miami to meet the new Spring Break 2014 cast and see if we were able to achieve our goal.
Want to be a part of something big? This is the last week to join Project Live Your Life for your chance to be in our next campaign.

A traveller journeying east from Michel Delving would pass along the main East Road through the Shire. While still in the Westfarthing, this was met by two smaller roads: one from Little Delving to the north, and one from Tookland and the Southfarthing beyond. Where these roadways came together, a town had grown up, appropriately known as Waymeet.
In the War of the Ring, the ruffians who took over the Shire had a staging post or barracks in Waymeet, and it was from here that Sharkey's Men set out for the Battle of Bywater, in which they were soundly defeated by the Shire-hobbits.
The name Waymeet is a modernised spelling of a name with another older form, Waymoot, which is the spelling preferred by Tolkien in early drafts of The Return of the King. Though he ultimately modernised the name within the book itself, the map of the Shire that accompanies The Lord of the Rings was never corrected, and still carries the older spelling of the name.

So last year Danielle Staub was able to get a court injunction to stop her former fling Steve Zalewski from selling some sex footage of her, but get this, there is now another new sex tape of the 47-year-old reality star, that will soon be released according to a new report.
And this new tape is a full on explicit sex tape that shows the Real Housewives of New Jersey reality star engaging in various sexual acts with an unidentified man.
Danielle's ex-boy toy Steve, the younger man Danielle dated during Season 1, spoke to Zap2it and said he is not the man on the new sex tape. Citing that his tape of Danielle only included a few scenes of Danielle giving him oral sex, with the remaining footage being mostly of her alone, shooting herself doing sex acts.
And what's on this new explicit tape? According to CrabbyGoLightly.com, Danielle and her pierced you know what can be seen engaging in "some missionary, some doggy style, and some pile-driving" with the unidentified male in the 45 minute tape. The crabbygolightly site claims, "You really don't see her partner's face, just his condom-covered member. At least she's practicing safe sex."
Sex tape queen Danielle has yet to publicly comment on this new tape. The new season of the New Jersey Housewives premieres May 3 on Bravo.

$27.52 *
Status: Usually shipped within 24 - 48 hours
Arranger: Friend, Rodney
Editor: Friend, Rodney
Series: Orchestral Player series
Department: Tutor Methods - Violin
Instrumentation: Violin
Publisher: Boosey & Hawkes (London)
Buy Together For: $55.03
More than just a collection of difficult passages for the aspiring orchestral pro, these extracts from the classical, romantic and twentieth-century concert repertoire reveal the tricks of the trade.
Unique colour-coding shows at a glance Rodney Friend's suggested fingerings, bowings and commentary. He demonstrates the articulation, phrasing and technique needed to solve all the practical problems faced by the player, making this book and indispensable resource for those preparing for auditions.
"Friend has not only provided us with a wide-ranging selection of excerpts but has also included his own suggestions and instructions. These insights set this work apart from any other collection of violin excerpts available.
"Friend's comments, which often aid musical presentation through technique, range from aspects of bow division, speed and pressure, to left-hand coordination and vibrato; there is a simple explanation of sautille for Mendelssohn's A Midsummer Night's Dream, for example. There are also reminders to avoid common mistakes, such as misplaced accents in Wagner's Die Meistersinger von Nuernberg.
"Two excerpts that could prove indispensable to the orchestral initiate are the interval markings for Shostakovich's Symphony no.5 and the detailed commentary and beat markings for Stravinsky's Rite of Spring. . . . These volumes will be welcomed as a generous helping hand for those preparing for auditions and trials. They will also be of great benefit to seasoned players who can discover new ideas from a true voice of experience."
(Shirley Turner, The Strad, August 2006)
At last! A compilation of orchestral excerpts that helps the budding violinist learn more about orchestral music than just the notes . . . Friend emphasises that students should learn to listen to the players around them, to study recordings of the works before the first rehearsal and to learn to adjust quickly to any changes around them, But his volumes are fantastic for teaching how to listen and what to listen for and how to execute certain styles under pressure.
