A traffic engineer hired by the town has concluded the city of Sarasota's proposal for six roundabouts as part of its bayfront connectivity proposal includes incorrect traffic data that allows the city to show traffic moving more efficiently through the roundabouts.
Juan Calderon, a professional traffic operational engineer with Miami-based FTE, showed a model with cars running into one another in the proposed roundabouts because the engineer said the gap of 1.7 to 2 seconds is unacceptable.
"The gap between one car and another is extremely aggressive," said Calderon, who explained he has designed roundabouts in Miami that have drivers riding up on each other with car gaps of about three seconds.
Calderon also said growth rates the city's engineer applied to the project inaccurate and said the roundabouts would create traffic backups on roads such as U.S. 301 and Fruitville Road.
The commission asked town staff at its Thursday, Nov. 19, regular workshop to deliver a copy of the engineer's findings to local planning organizations and the Florida Department of Transportation. The town's engineer also will continue to analyze any information the city submits to the state for its roundabout project.
At the workshop, the commission also:
Directed the town manager:
• To work with Manatee County officials to acquire both their staff's help and their funding to develop an inlet management plan for Longboat Pass and area beaches. The town also is working to place 600 cubic yards of sand on the beach near North Shore until a breakwater project that will hold sand in the area can be performed in November 2010.
• To make the Bay Isles Access Channel a part of its ongoing canal maintenance program. The commitment will allow the state to approve a dredging project in the town's name being performed by The Longboat Key Moorings Marina.
• To make all new board members required to attend a seminar on public records, ethics and the Sunshine Law.
• To use the $57,000 in the town's budget for an additional code enforcement officer for contract employee purposes for the town's code enforcement department.
• To eliminate the public town manager evaluation process, which the majority of the commission believes has no value.
Forwarded to its Monday, Dec. 7 regular meeting for fist reading:
• An ordinance that reconciles discrepancies in the town's utility division fee schedule for customers.
• An ordinance that codifies all ordinances adopted by the town through the Nov. 2 regular meeting.
Forwarded to its Monday, Dec. 7 regular meeting for formal action:
• The confirmation of Jan. 26 as a preliminary election date (if required) and March 16 as the general municipal election date.
• A request by the Sarasota County Supervisor of Elections Office to maintain Town Hall as a poling precinct for 2010.
• A revised ordinance that would allow commissioner to serve three consecutive two-year terms as well as any additional time served as a partial term limit for being appointed.
• Waiving the requirement that the second of two public hearings for an outline development application being reviewed by the Town Commission be held after 5 p.m. because The Longboat Key Club and Resort's Islandside project is expected to take longer to review. The meeting will be held at 9 a.m. on the chosen date.

Karmin, composed of engaged musicians Amy Heidemann and Nick Noonan, could serve as the poster children for how to channel YouTube celebrity into scoring a major label recording deal and a prime gig as musical guests on Saturday Night Live. That record deal with Epic Records has produced their first album, Hello, which is available today, May 8th. Karmin stopped by 102 JAMZ/Orlando recently to chat about the new CD and to perform "Brokenhearted," "I Told You So" and "Hello," three tracks from their debut album.
Karmin found inspiration for their current hit, "Brokenhearted," from the beginning of their own romance. Just out of serious relationships themselves, Heidemann and Noonan both knew there was strong chemistry when they met at a party while attending Berklee College of Music in Boston, Massachusetts, but were a little hesitant to act upon it.
"It was loosely based on how we actually met," Noonan said. "After we met we were like, 'Things went very well.' We both liked each other and we both thought we were funny. It was like, is it a too good to be true type of thing or was it actually really good?"
After relaying the experience to others, Heidemann realized that the initial hesitation is something many girls experience.
"I was talking to people and a lot of girls go through this, where you are at home over thinking about it major. [You're] on your phone checking every five minutes, 'Why isn't he even texting me or anything?' So we were like, we should write a song about it because people feel that way."
Next up for Karmin is the single "I Told You So," along with an already completed video that Noonan said should be released very soon. The video will find the two taking on roles other than that of potential lovers.
"There's a lot of acting in that one too," Heidemann revealed. "It's actually in a psych ward. I'm a crazy person and he's a doctor."
"I Told You So" was the group's encore number when they appeared on Saturday Night Live in February, where the song drew the attention of none other than Steven Spielberg, who also happened to be on the show. Heidemann revealed that the superstar director made a point to let them know how much he liked the song and its futuristic sonic sound.

Just the most powerful formulas available.
The Most Powerful Creatine Musclebuilder Ever Developed
CELL-TECH is a scientifically engineered hardcore creatine formula designed for hardgainers who have trouble putting on size and strength. This patent-protected creatine formula contains core ingredients supported by over 30 clinical research studies conducted over multiple decades. CELL-TECH is packed with powerful musclebuilding ingredients and is formulated to deliver:
Faster Muscle Growth:
Each two-scoop serving of CELL-TECH delivers 7 grams of HPLC-certified creatine monohydrate and 3 grams of creatine HCl. Subjects who consumed the amount of creatine and carbohydrates supplied during the CELL-TECH loading stage (see directions) gained, on average, 3.4 pounds of muscle in 7 days. Subjects taking creatine with juice gained only 0.8 pounds.*
Increased Strength:
In another study, subjects taking the amount of creatine and carbohydrates found in two scoops of CELL-TECH significantly increased their strength on the bench press, leg press and biceps curl.*
Enhanced Nutrient Transport:
Each two-scoop serving of CELL-TECH includes 200mg of the powerful compound alpha lipoic acid (ALA). Research suggests that ALA helps improve the absorption of creatine and glucose into the muscle cell through specialized transporters.*
More Muscle Size and Fullness:
CELL-TECH delivers a multi-stage combination of carbohydrates that forces a powerful insulin spike post-workout. This helps shuttle creatine and other nutrients into the muscle and rapidly replenishes glycogen stores, facilitating glycogen supercompensation and an intense muscle-expanding effect.*
No Cycling:
A clinical study revealed that the use of CELL-TECH did not lead to the down regulation of creatine transporters. This allows athletes to continue to benefit from creatine use, instead of cycling on and off.*
Branched Chain and Cell-Volumizing Amino Acids:
In addition to its key musclebuilding ingredients, CELL-TECH supplies the branched chain amino acids L-leucine, L-valine and L-isoleucine in a 2:1:1 ratio. Branched chain amino acids are free-form amino acids – singular molecules that are quickly digested and absorbed into the bloodstream. CELL-TECH also contains the amino acids taurine and alanine. These free-form amino acids are two of the most abundant amino acids in muscle and aid in cell volumization.*
Get More for Your Money:
Unlike the competition, Performance Series products contain superior key ingredients in clinically dosed amounts that are fully disclosed so you know exactly what you are paying for.
Best-In-Class Taste:
Every flavor of CELL-TECH won in head-to-head third-party taste tests against leading competitors.

Mora led the AL in batting average (.402), slugging percentage (.701) and on-base percentage (.480) last month, going 43-for-107 at the plate with 26 runs scored, eight doubles, eight home runs, 23 RBI, and five stolen bases. The 2003 AL All-Star reached base in all 26 games, hitting safely in 23, and had 15 multi-hit games. The Venezuelan native and sixth-year veteran is the current AL leader in batting average (.385), runs (47), and OBP (.465). This is the first Pepsi Player of the Month award for an Oriole since Albert Belle won it in June 2000.
In six starts, Buehrle went 4-0 with a 1.58 ERA, the best mark among qualifying AL starters. He struck out 37 in 40.0 innings pitched, allowing 43 hits and eight walks. The 2002 AL All-Star tossed six or more scoreless innings in three starts as the AL Central-leading White Sox posted a 6-0 record in his games. The southpaw earned a pair of wins over the division-rival Minnesota Twins, against whom he is 12-4 in his career. This is Buehrle's first career monthly award and the first for a White Sox since Esteban Loaiza won for April 2003.
Other players receiving votes were: Seattle's Ichiro Suzuki (.400, Major League-best 50 hits); Anaheim's Vladimir Guerrero (.368, 6 HR, 23 RBI) and Jose Guillen (.351, 8 HR, 27 RBI); Cleveland's Victor Martinez (.315, 5 HR, AL-high 30 RBI); Boston's Manny Ramirez (.317, AL-high 9 HR, 21 RBI); and Detroit's Alex Sanchez (.370, 10 RBI). Ichiro became the second player ever to record a second career month with at least 50 hits, joining Pete Rose.
Pitchers who were named on the monthly ballots included: Kenny Rogers (5-1, 2.20 ERA) of Texas; Minnesota's Joe Nathan (0.00 ERA, 7 saves); Oakland's Mark Mulder (4-0, 3.00 ERA, AL-high 3 CG); Mariano Rivera (1.32 ERA, AL-high 10 saves) of the New York Yankees; and Anaheim's Aaron Sele (4-0, 2.10 ERA). Rogers is the only eight-game winner in baseball. Nathan allowed just four hits and no runs in 12.2 IP, striking out 15. Mulder threw all three of his complete games in consecutive fashion.
Mora and Buehrle each will receive a specially designed trophy as the American League Pepsi Player and Pitcher of the Month.

UF Law celebrates 50th graduation anniversary of UF's first black graduate
By Matt Walker
Senior writer
The University of Florida Levin College of Law will celebrate the 50th anniversary of the graduation of W. George Allen with a special afternoon program at the law school. In 1962, Allen helped pave the way for generations of students in Florida by becoming the first African-American to graduate from the University of Florida and UF Law.
The celebration will be held Oct. 12, at 3 p.m. in UF Law's Chesterfield Smith Ceremonial Classroom. It is co-sponsored by the University of Florida Alumni Association and Association of Black Alumni, Levin College of Law and Center for the Study of Race and Race Relations. The event is free and open to the public.
The program will be hosted by UF Association of Black Alumni President Terry Nealy and Center for the Study of Race and Race Relations Director Katheryn Russell-Brown, with comments from UF Law Dean Robert Jerry, UF Provost Joseph Glover, Northern Florida District Judge Stephan Mickle and attorney Harley Herman. There will also be reflections from UF Law alumni and attorneys including Ava Parker and Chris Chestnut.
Presentations will feature a keynote speech from Allen, a look back at the desegregation of Florida and the legacy of Virgil Hawkins. Hawkins was denied admission to UF Law in 1949 based solely on his race and fought for admission until 1958, when he withdrew his application in exchange for a Florida Supreme Court order desegregating UF's graduate and professional schools.
The celebration will conclude with the unveiling of a special plaque on the UF Law campus honoring Allen.
Allen was accepted into UF Law in 1960, after he graduated from Florida A&M and served two years in the Army. Living in California at the time, Allen turned down law school admissions to Berkeley and Harvard. He said he was intent on returning to the South to be where the "action" was, referring to the civil rights struggles that were bubbling to the surface.
After graduating from UF Law in 1962, Allen moved to Fort Lauderdale, where he helped lead the fight for the integration of Broward County's public school system, and established his own practice, where he has specialized in trial work, probate, personal injury, insurance defense and wrongful death law.
Earlier on Oct. 12 at UF Law, the CSRRR will moderate the panel discussion, "Leadership and Law: Diverse Perspectives on the Role of Race and Participation in Professional Legal Organizations." The event begins with a reception and luncheon at noon, followed by the discussion from 1 to 2:30 p.m. The panel will feature leaders from national, state, and local bar associations looking at how race has influenced the past, present and future of their respective organization. The goal of the event is to foster a dialogue on avenues for leadership and joint initiatives that transcend racial and other divides. RSVP here.
The symposium is a joint initiative of UF Law's Center for the Study of Race and Race Relations, the 8th Judicial Circuit Bar Association, and the Josiah T. Walls Bar Association.
The 3 p.m. Allen celebration kicks off UF's Black Alumni Weekend in Gainesville, Oct. 12 to 14. The weekend honors civil rights pioneers who were instrumental in desegregating the state's universities and offers the opportunity to reunite Gators from every decade so they leave Gainesville closer and stronger than ever before. Read more. (Note: Details of some BAW events are tentative. Check the site closer to the weekend for finalized information.)


text: Man, there's a local tournament that is charging $48.88 for a singles tournament. What the heck!!! Has anyone else had to pay this much for a USTA singles event? The most I've ever paid I think is about $35, and I thought that was steep. Are they going to give me a dri-fit polo & shorts and a 3 course meal for participating? What a rip.... I probably won't play it just on cost alone, even though it's close by. I can't believe some of these tournament directors.

We've long heard that sex is a great way to burn some calories and get fit, but is this just wishful thinking? How much of a workout does one get from a tumble in the sheets?
Bad news: it turns out that the "average" duration of a lovemaking session is only six minutes, which isn't long enough to get much of a health benefit. That said, if you get up to 20 or 30 minutes of solid action in the bedroom you can get a proper workout. If a solid half hour of passionate sex sounds exhausting, there are a number of ways you can build up your endurance.
Doing the deed first thing in the morning or eating the right foods are just two ways we can "optimize our sexercise." See all the tips and techniques to firm up in the sack in this article by Dr. Jay Williams on Upwave.com.
Reinventing the Vibrator
Ethan Imboden, the founder of sex toy company JimmyJane, is on a mission to make vibrators "into a lifestyle accessory as commonplace as an electric toothbrush." A former industrial designer, Imboden is using his skills to produce luxury products which are sleek, aesthetically pleasing and ergonomically pleasurable. Get the scoop on how "the Steve Jobs of sex toys" is shaking up the industry in this interview on AllThingsD.com.
Coffee or Sex?
Choosing between giving up coffee or giving up sex is a hypothetical situation too horrible to contemplate, but it's this Sophie's Choice that Le Meridien Hotels posed to almost 8,000 people in a survey spanning six countries.
A shocking 78 percent of those polled said they would take coffee over sex if they had to choose to drop one for an entire year. The survey also asked a number of other questions about caffeine and sex; read the rest of the results on Jezebel.com.
Rebecca Romijn's Hand Bra
The "hand bra," the infamous shot of a topless woman covering her breasts with her hands, revolutionized sexy fashion shoots by allowing famous women to get their tops off and still appear on newsstand covers. Model and actress Rebecca Romijn has often worn the hand bra for many great pics in her modeling career, and according to this video from FunnyorDie she's using it to much satisfaction in her day-to-day life. In fact, Romijn now wants to bring the benefits of the hand bra to other women.
Naturally, we loved this bit because it stars a topless Rebecca Romijn holding her breasts, but it's also full of solid laughs—Romijn has whip-smart comedic timing (a talent often underutilized in the roles she's cast in) and here it shines as bright as her stunning looks.
More Than Half of Newlyweds Don't Have Sex on their Wedding Night
Data from a new survey is showing that a little more than half (52%) of couples don't consummate their marriage on their wedding night. The reasons why vary, but a major factor is too much drink. Out of those couples who didn't rock the honeymoon suite, 24 percent of them stated it was because the groom was too drunk to perform. And 16 percent didn't do the deed due to the bride being knackered. See the rest of the results of the survey at Dailymail.co.uk.

HD Radio
Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
Installation is pretty simple with included double sided velcro but doesn't last long in the summer heat. HD radio sounds nice when it is close enough to pick up the broadcast. The station info is nice but wish it automatically displayed artist and album info without having to figure out which display setting to use. Product seems built well enough. When no HD is available regular FM is weaker than other radios. HD sometimes sounds like a 96Kbps mp3. High frequencies sound odd.
Pros: HD radio is great when available.
Cons: Worse regular FM reception than other radios

- (Post Present Medium)
This musically restless LA band made quite a few waves with their 3rd album, 2008's tropical-punk Skeleton, but they take yet another left turn on their 4th full-length, a decidedly colder-sounding set of brooding post-punk with sterner melodies, dramatic goth vocals, chilly synths and occasional drum machines. They also do it incredibly well, and Crush sounds like their most consistently strong and fully realized set of songs to date. 8/31/2010 - Don Yates

The Parks and Recreation Department is hosting a public meeting to discuss the future of 6.1 acres of land near Glenville Drive and Belt Line Road. The Twin Rivers Residential Corporation, which built an independent senior living facility adjacent to the tract, donated the land to the City in 2009.
The City will gather input from residents and nearby business owners at the public meeting to help guide planners as they develop the park. The first public meeting on the study was held April 23.
The meeting will be held at 7 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 5, in the Civic Center's Richardson Room. The City does not currently have funds to develop the park, but a concept master plan to be developed later this year will include a cost estimate. The project is expected to become part of the City's Capital Improvement Program.

Put simply, a blogger who is given money to promote a product or service has to ensure readers are aware they're being advertised to.
Time and again you hear about marketers thinking they can get away with putting pressure on bloggers to promote clients without declaring when money has changed hands.
I know personally of situations where bloggers have agreed to accept more money than was initially offered in order to refrain from declaring paid posts and this is clearly wrong on both sides. The ASA has done all it can now.'I didn't know' just isn't an excuse marketers and bloggers can use now.

Well, I don't think this falls entirely on Jay's shoulders should he be fired, but I wouldn't be surprised at the same time. I don't think changing the head coach is really going to affect this roster.
What do you guys think?
Oh, and Smith also goes on to discuss that the Suns should start inquiring about Bosh assuming things don't change here seeing how they aren't entirely sold on their future with Amare.
Source - Click hereAnd then theres the Raptors, who basically have had the same starting lineup all season without any injuries and are starting to get blown out on a regular basis.
Theyve lost seven of nine and the last three by an average of more than 22 per game. They give up more than 109 points per game, second most in the league to Golden State and have yielded at least 100 the last nine games. Their defense is atrocious, 24th in opponents shooting, last in steals.
Its also a franchise that, historically, has had little patience with coaches as Sam Mitchell last season went 17 games into the season, three of the franchises six coaches didnt last two seasons and a fourth, Butch Carter, got just over two seasons and was fired after the teams first ever playoff appearance and then best record ever. Of course, those were previous administrations.
Though there was some ah ha when former Grizzlies coach Marc Iavaroni, a defensive specialist, was hired by his former boss in Phoenix, Bryan Colangelo, to be a Raptors assistant for coach Jay Triano. But this is Trianos first full season, so you figure theyd give him a chance.
The larger question for the Raptors is Chris Bosh, and whether its time to try to make a major deal. The Raptors comment always has been if Bosh, one of the major free agents this summer, chooses to leave, hes best off with a Raptors sign and trade to make a probable maximum contract. Thats likely true, though you also wonder if Toronto would look into a deal at some point to remake their team.

SAN DIEGO – The last time Tiger Woods played golf on a Monday at Torrey Pines, it worked out pretty well for him.
That was in 2008, when Woods battled – and beat – Rocco Mediate in a classic U.S. Open playoff on the oceanfront in La Jolla. Now, Woods will take to the course again in a similar setting and attempt to lock up what seems like a sure victory at the Farmers Insurance Open.
With dense fog postponing Saturday's third round to Sunday and the remaining 87 golfers at the Open playing almost from sun-up to sundown, the tournament still wasn't done. Woods finished the day at 17-under-par 227 through 61 holes, holding a six-stroke lead on Brandt Snedeker and Nick Watney when play was halted because of darkness.
"It was a long day," Woods said. "I mean, we played most of the day, and I played well today. Overall, I'm very pleased that I was able to build on my lead."
Play was officially suspended just before 5 p.m., although some golfers remained on the course for 15 more minutes while finishing their holes – including Woods, who did elaborate stretching exercises as he waited on the green.
He proceeded to sink a par putt as the sun sank in the distance.
Woods will tee off on the eighth hole at the Torrey Pines South Course at 11:10 a.m. Monday.
As play paused Sunday, the big lead prompted Woods to be more receptive than normal to questions about his golfing legacy – both overall and at Torrey Pines. Asked how he would have responded 15 years ago to news that he'd be going for his 75th PGA Tour victory and a record-breaking eighth on this course, Woods grinned.
"I would take that," he said. "I would take that for sure."
At the conclusion of the third round, Woods led by four strokes over Brad Fritsch and five over Erik Compton. But both golfers, playing in the group just before Woods', quickly fell back in the fourth round and trailed by eight and nine strokes, respectively, at the close of play.
"I've never played in this atmosphere, especially in front of Tiger," said Fritsch, a tour rookie. "It would be a really interesting tournament if he wasn't here, in terms of the scoring,"
Said Woods of his third round, a 3-under 69: "I played well. I played really, really well."
After a half-hour break, Woods struggled some at the start of the fourth round with consecutive left-leaning tee shots, but he salvaged pars on the first two holes.
Then he went on a mini-run and hit birdies on three of his next four holes – including a beautiful chip-in on the par-four fourth. He played the first seven holes at a 3-under pace.
Woods has led a PGA Tour event after three rounds 53 times; he has won a remarkable 49 of those and has shot an over-par fourth round only four times.
The two tour veterans chasing Woods tried to hold out hope for an upset as they left the course Sunday, but spirits weren't terribly high.
"All we can do tomorrow is go out and try to make him think about it a little bit and see what happens," said Watney, the 2009 Farmers champion.
Through eight fourth-round holes, Watney has registered an 11-under 236 for the tourney. Snedeker, the reigning champion, sits at 11-under 257 with five holes to finish.
Woods eschewed his infamous Sunday red uniform in favor of a gray-on-white combination. He explained the decision succinctly afterward.
"It wasn't the final day," Woods said, pausing for effect and a sly grin. "I'll wear it tomorrow."
Mission Viejo native Cameron Tringale, the lone local golfer remaining, sits 11 strokes behind Woods with six holes to play. … Several golfers competing here today have tee times scheduled for this afternoon in Arizona to qualify for the WM Phoenix Open, which they are unlikely to make because of the late start. Any golfer who finishes in the top 10 at Farmers will automatically qualify, however. … Gates open at 10 a.m. Monday. Admission and selected parking is free. Golf Channel and CBS will split the broadcast.

BEST SELLING AUTHOR—Dr. Dennis Kimbro is best known for the classic book Think and Grow Rich: A Black Choice. In his latest book, "The Wealth Choice: Success Secrets of Black Millionaires," Kimbro shares the results of an exhaustive study of the success secrets of 1,000 Black millionaires.
by Shewanda Riley
(NNPA)—An unshakeable passion to see people do better financially is how many describe national bestselling author Dr. Dennis Kimbro's over 20 year career motivating others to change their lives. Best known for the classic book Think and Grow Rich: A Black Choice, Kimbro has spent decades studying the economic conditions of African-Americans. The statistics are alarming. According to his research, the average household income of Black America stands at $29,000, barely above poverty and more than 35 percent of Black children live in poverty. And because Kimbro believes your net worth equals your self worth, the figures concerning net worth are more astounding. Nearly 35 percent of African-Americans possess zero net worth. Is it a lack of knowledge or a lack of opportunity? For Kimbro, it's neither: the real issue is courage.
"As a race, unfortunately, we don't pay homage to our financial elite. Wealth is the result of a conscious choice, action, faith, innovation, effort, preparation and discipline," notes Kimbro. In his latest book, The Wealth Choice: Success Secrets of Black Millionaires, Kimbro shares the results of an exhaustive study of the success secrets of 1,000 Black millionaires. "Over a seven year period, I interacted with nearly 1,000 Black millionaires; wealth creators who started with nothing, built a financial empire without the use of a microphone or a ball," explains Kimbro. In a recent phone interview with The Dallas Weekly, the Clark Atlanta University professor enthusiastically stated that their inspirational stories about how to build wealth must be told.
Courage and a determination to passionately pursue dreams were the most common traits among those he interviewed. "This work is not about 'cash'—it's about 'courage.' It takes courage to chase your dream; it takes courage to save 10 percent of your earnings; it takes courage to forsake today in search of tomorrow; and it takes courage to find a new set of friends because your current friends either disempower you or don't believe in your future or your abilities," reflects Kimbro.

"Writing Icons of the Kingdom" is Youth Conference Theme
The 12th Annual Orthodox Christian Camp and Youth Workers Conference took place at Antiochian Village in Ligonier, PA from January 23-25, 2014. Over 80 youth workers from across the United States and Canada gathered together for this year's conference, sponsored by the Orthodox Christian Camps Association and youth departments from different jurisdictions. This year's conference was co-hosted by the Youth and Camping Ministries of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the USA and the American Carpatho-Russian Orthodox Diocese of the U.S.A. The theme of the Conference was "Writing Icons of the Kingdom: Understanding our Youth as Icons we are Helping to Write."
Ruling Hierarch of the American Carpatho-Russian Orthodox Diocese His Grace Bishop Gregory of Nyssa was the keynote speaker. In his first address, Bishop Gregory spoke about the unity required of us in youth ministry in order to effectively "write" icons for the kingdom. For his second address His Grace stepped aside for a very special presenter, Protopresbyter Mark Leasure, his priest from St. George Church in Taylor, PA, who brought the myrrh-streaming icons of the Mother of God that reside in his parish.
The presence of these icons was the highlight of the entire conference, making it into a deeply spiritual event, beautifully illustrating the essence of the theme. How could those present not be inspired in ministry after having seen the Mother of God in this way? She nurtured her Son in every way He needed...what a beautiful model of youth ministry for us. Those attending were anointed with the holy myrrh from the icons and prayed the "Akathist to the Mother of God, the Nurturer of Children." This event, followed by the Friday morning Liturgy, was the concrete experience of the very real unity His Grace spoke about in his first keynote address the evening before.
Following each keynote address, the Conference participants were offered a choice of several workshops which covered a variety of topics related to youth and camping ministry. These workshops included both theological principles as well as the practical day-to-day techniques. Themes included "Insights of the Holy Fathers for Guiding Children and Youth Along the Path to Salvation," "Parents: The Daily Iconographer – Working with Parents in Your Parish," and "Bridging the Gap between Camp and Parish Life." The diverse group of speakers from seven jurisdictions included youth directors, priests, iconographers, camp directors and diocesan youth directors.
Each day's schedule was full, but included the free time necessary to deepen and foster the friendships that help us in our collective ministry. Each evening included a themed gathering to encourage these connections through fellowship. Overall, the Conference was a tremendous opportunity to deepen faith, learn, and be inspired. The next Conference scheduled for January 2015, will be no exception; information about it will be available this fall on the Orthodox Christian Camps Association Website.

Gazebo type structure, 3m x 3m inner space, ideal for garden party or barbecue, optional inner available making it fully functional as a tent. 4oz polyester flysheet fabric. Packed size 102x30x30cm.
Weight 16kgs (with inner). "
We use our screenhouse as a stand-alone awning when motorhoming. For us it has been well worth the money it cost, it gives us extra living space which isn't attached to the van, so we can just drive off when we want to.
When you take the screen house out of its bag and start putting it up it looks a bit like a giant spider because the poles are permanently attached to the canvas and you open it out a bit like an umbrella! Very difficult to describe, but the system works well and is quite simple once you get the hang of it (they do supply a DVD to show you how to do it - best studied well before you attempt it for the first time!) Tent pegs are supplied although depending on the ground you may need some stronger ones (this is true of most tents, I find). It also comes with a repair kit - replacement joint, seam sealant, forgotten what else, sorry.
The base is 3m x 3m, so by the time you allow for the guy lines it does take up quite a bit of space, so may not be suitable for some campsites with small pitches. However, on the plus size, it gives you plenty of room for chairs, tables etc. Ours is blue, but I think the current models are green.
The screen house is adaptable - The back and front sections zip open and can be rolled up or turned into canopies using the supplied poles. There is fly netting on all 4 sides, fixed in place on the 2 sides but can be rolled up on the back and front if required. The netting is covered by fabric on back and sides. At the front it is covered by a transparent plastic window which has a curtain inside it. The curtain can be rolled up.
With the outside fabric rolled up on all 4 sides it virtually becomes a gazebo, although you may have to be a bit careful with the sides with the fixed flyscreen - we did have someone try to walk through it with a freshly poured cup of tea in his hand because he didn't see the fly netting, fortunately he didn't scald himself!
Our screenhouse is now 5 years old and has stood through high winds and torrential rain successfully.
You can purchase an inner for it, to turn it into a bedroom - the inner takes up virtually all the floor space so doesn't leave anything much in the way of living area, we were told, but I cannot confirm this as we did not purchase one. I wouldn't recommend the screenhouse for sleeping, as there is no roof ventilation and the one time a friend slept in it, using the inner from her tent which had collapsed in winds, she said it was like chinese water torture due to the amount of condensation dripping off the roof onto her sleeping area.
We paid about £250 I think, RRP now is about £360 I think but you can get them for £260-270 on the internet I think. There are certainly much cheaper options around for extra living area, but they aren't all as weatherproof which was something that was important for us as we motorhome in all weathers. This has fitted the bill perfectly for us and has been well worth it's cost.
I use my Khyam Screenhouse when I go off to dog shows. It is incredibly easy to put up because there are no poles to fit together, the poles are already joined to the canvas and it's just a case of straightening the legs so that the joints clip into place. I can get the Screenhouse up and pegged down on my own in less than 10 minutes. It's only a problem for one person if it's windy because it is a very light tent. It's ideal for dog shows because it provides shade without getting really hot inside. The front and back open up completely. You can either roll the canvas up or make it into a canopy using the poles that are provided. Inside the canvas on all four sides is a black netting flyscreen. This will roll up on the front and back sides but remains fixed on the other 2 sides, although you can roll up the canvas on these 2 sides allowing some air to blow through the netting. The Screenhouse is quite roomy. You can buy the inner sleeping compartment for it for an extra £80 (I think) but I have no need for this. When collapsed, it fits into a relatively small bag (a bit bigger than a set of golf clubs) and is fairly light to carry. The only problem at the dog shows is that so many people have bought these tents now, it's difficult to find my way back to my own tent !

MORE BOO WILLIAMS: Sullinger leads way to title | Teague and Barton impress | Smith stars
HAMPTON, Va. - Here were nine of the top standouts in the 17-Under division at the Boo Williams Invitational last weekend.
Boo Williams Invitational Standouts
6-8/260, Columbus (Ohio) Northland
Sullinger was far and away the most dominant big man over the course of the event. The Ohio State commitment bullied his way to buckets by going through defenders when he couldn't score over them. As a rebounder, Sullinger controlled the glass on both ends of the court. His talented and physical play set the tone for an All-Ohio Red team that knows how to win.
6-6/190, Elizabeth (N.J.) St. Patrick
Gilchrist is making a strong claim for the No. 1 spot in the 2011 rankings. A top-notch athlete with a motor to match, Gilchrist is progressively taking his game to new levels. Over the weekend he attacked the basket off the dribble and finished with strength while also knocking down jumpers from behind the arc and from midrange. He is also a high-level defender both inside and on the perimeter.
6-2/170, Indianapolis Pike
Teague is staking his claim as the top point guard in the 2011 class. His handle is as tight as any guard presently on the circuit, and his ability to stop and go and change direction is unparalleled. Play the drive, and he can kill defenders with his pull-up jumper. Teague also has the makings of being a high-level defender.
6-6/206, Ames (Iowa) Ames Senior
Barnes simply has the complete package as a wing player. He is shooting the ball well from deep and has a physical presence around the basket. Most notable is the improvement in his dribble game from last summer. Barnes consistently got by defenders and created positive plays for his team. And his versatility as a defender gives him extra value as a prospect.
6-3/175, Winter Park (Fla.) High
Rivers might not be as explosively athletic as Teague, but does he ever have a plethora of crafty dribble moves. The bottom line is that defenders can't keep him in front of them. That is unless they play him with a gap and then Rivers buries 3-pointers. His feel for the game offensively is superb. Now he just needs to amp it up on the defensive end.
6-3/185, Coral Springs (Fla.) Pine Crest
Knight played the role of a scorer this past weekend much more than a distributor. Constantly on the hunt for his points, Knight got them. He shot the ball well from deep and also punished the defense with his increased strength and aggressive drives to the basket. In fact, Knight might have shot more free throws than any other player in the event.
SG Will Barton
6-5/165, Baltimore Lake Clifton
Barton is a scoring machine in the mold of something between Rip Hamilton and Michigan's Manny Harris. Despite his thin frame, Barton's length and strength with the ball allow him to make plays against contact. His funky dribble game is sure to create space for his accurate jumper, and his instinct for coming up with loose balls gets him bonus buckets.
SG Nick Johnson
6-2/175, Gilbert (Ariz.) Highland
Rarely do you find a freshman prospect who has such a high-level combination of athleticism, control and skill as Johnson. The combo guard did a fine job running the point for the Oakland Soldiers while also being a constant scoring threat. Johnson has an impressive and athletic jumper on the move, and when there is a lane to the basket, Johnson will finish with authority.
6-4/190, Chesapeake (Va.) Atlantic Shores Christian
Dawkins, a Duke commitment, was superb throughout the event. He shot the ball with precision and with range, attacked the basket and completed some tough finishes in the midrange. As impressive as Dawkins was on the wing offensively, he was just as impressive all over the court as a defender. Dawkins' game warrants the addition of another star by his name.

About the CAHSEE, from the California Department of Education:
Purpose and Content
The primary purpose of the California High School Exit Examination (CAHSEE) is to significantly improve pupil achievement in public high schools and to ensure that pupils who graduate from public high schools can demonstrate grade level competency in reading, writing, and mathematics. The CAHSEE helps identify students who are not developing skills that are essential for life after high school and encourages districts to give these students the attention and resources needed to help them achieve these skills during their high school years. All California public school students except eligible students with disabilities must satisfy the CAHSEE requirement, as well as all other state and local requirements, in order to receive a high school diploma. The CAHSEE requirement can be satisfied by passing the examination, or for eligible students with disabilities, meeting the exemption requirement pursuant to California Education Code (EC) Section 60852.3, or receiving a local waiver pursuant to EC Section 60851(c).
The CAHSEE has two parts: English-language arts (ELA) and mathematics. The ELA part addresses state content standards through grade ten. In reading, this includes vocabulary, decoding, comprehension, and analysis of information and literary texts. In writing, this covers writing strategies, applications, and the conventions of English (e.g. grammar, spelling, and punctuation). The mathematics part of the CAHSEE addresses state standards in grades six and seven and Algebra I. The exam includes statistics, data analysis and probability, number sense, measurement and geometry, mathematical reasoning, and algebra. Students are also asked to demonstrate a strong foundation in computation and arithmetic, including working with decimals, fractions, and percents.

In a rare moment, Prince William paid tribute to and opened up publicly about the passing of his mother Princess Diana.
The British royal attended the 21st anniversary dinner of the charity, Child Bereavement UK, Thursday where he gave a speech that honored his late mother. Diana helped launch the charity in 1994, three years before she was tragically killed in a car crash in Paris.
"Twenty one years ago last month, my mother attended the launch of the Child Bereavement Charity," he told the crowd. "Fifteen years later, I was honored to be invited to become Patron of Child Bereavement UK to continue my mother's commitment to a charity which is very dear to me."
The organization, which is run by Julia Samuel, a close friend of Princess Diana's and Prince George's godmother, helps children of military families, suicide victims and terminally ill parents cope with the death or inevitable death of a parent. "What my mother recognized back then–and what I understand now–is that grief is the most painful experience that any child or parent can endure," Kate Middleton's husband said, referencing the pain he felt when his mother died in 1997.
PHOTOS: Princess Diana's best looks
"But my mother was determined to help those in need and she would have been immensely proud–as I am–of all that Child Bereavement UK has achieved these last 21 years."
Although he said he has "witnessed first-hand" how the charity brings "warmth" and "comfort" to children during the "darkest" moments of their lives, Prince William admitted that he gained even more perspective once he had children of his own.
"As a father to two young children myself, I now appreciate it all the more," he said.
Prince William has been opening up about his family a lot recently, giving an update to host Professor Christopher Dobson about his son Prince George and daughter Princess Charlotte during a visit to St. John's College at Cambridge University earlier Thursday.
"He said George is very lively," the professor told reporters, "and Charlotte is very lady-like. He said they were both delightful, of course."

I've been a regular player for most of my career, but my role with the Giants is as a spot starter. I might play two or three days in a row, but I'm mostly here to fill in for Barry Bonds and to play some first base when Rich Aurilia is off playing other positions in the field.
Coming off shoulder surgery, I knew it would be difficult to get a job as an everyday player this past offseason. So I'm here now to see what I can do with the number of at-bats I get. Mostly, though, I'm just happy to be back in a uniform. I missed nearly a full season last year and just being able to come out and contribute is a great feeling.
I've been in the game a number of years but I had only played for two other clubs -- the Padres and the Braves -- before coming to the Giants, so I'm still adjusting to a new environment.
So far, being a part of this team this year has been exciting. I've always enjoyed coming to San Francisco and the Bay Area as a visiting player. Now, I've already come to realize this is a first-class organization. I like the team we've put together and the tradition that comes with playing for the Giants.
As a veteran player, it's great to come to a veteran team because this team is really built to win now. That was very attractive to me when I was a free agent this winter. When you look around the clubhouse, there are a lot of guys who have proven themselves. They know how to get themselves ready to play. There's also some good young pitching.
I know the division from having been in San Diego the last number of years. That's helped me with my transition here. It's a good, competitive division with a lot of good players. I've enjoyed playing in the NL West. Being familiar with the manager, Bruce Bochy, from our time together with the Padres has also helped make the transition easier for me.
San Francisco made its dedication to winning clear by bringing in a manager the caliber of Bochy and signing quality free agents in the offseason. I signed right before Barry Zito did, but knowing that the deal with him was close really helped cement my decision to come here.
Ryan Klesko, who can play first base or the outfield, has long been one of the NL's top left-handed hitters. Entering this season, Klesko had compiled a lifetime .280 batting average with 316 doubles, 272 home runs and 943 RBIs in 1,620 career games with Atlanta (1992-99) and San Diego (2000-06).

The whereabouts of Chen Guangcheng — amid unconfirmed reports that he sought protection at the U.S. Embassy in Beijing — could be a major political complication for the two countries as Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton and other top U.S. officials are due in China this coming week for the latest round of the Strategic and Economic Dialogue.
"Chen is under U.S. protection and high-level talks are currently under way between U.S. and Chinese officials regarding Chen's status," said a statement from the ChinaAid Association. It cited a source close to the situation.
Texas-based ChinaAid and its founder, Bob Fu, have been active in promoting Chen's case and confirmed Friday that Chen had escaped to Beijing from where he was being held in his village in Shandong province in eastern China.
The U.S. Embassy in Beijing declined to comment Saturday, as have U.S. officials in Washington.
Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Cui Tiankai told a briefing earlier Saturday on the upcoming talks with the U.S. that he had no information on Chen's case.
"Your question does not come within the scope of today's briefing. So I have no information to give you," he said when asked about Chen.
Fu and Chinese-based activists say Chen slipped away from his intensely guarded home on the night of April 22, was driven away by activists and then handed over to others who brought him to Beijing.
Chen also recorded a video as a direct address to Premier Wen Jiabao, condemning the treatment of him and his family and accusing local Communist Party officials by name. Activists sent the video Friday to the overseas Chinese news site Boxun.com, which posted part of it on YouTube.
Activist Hu Jia met with Chen after his escape and said the people with Chen later called him. "They said, 'He is in a 100 percent safe place,"' Hu said. "If they say that, I know where that place is. There's only one 100 percent (safe) place in China, and that's the U.S. Embassy." Claims of Chen's location could not be verified.
Hu's wife, Zeng Jinyan, posted a photo Friday on Twitter of Chen and Hu together. Chen is wearing the same clothes he wore in the video. Both men are smiling.
Chen's escape, if ultimately successful, would boost a beleaguered civil rights community, which has faced rising arrests and other harassment over the past year.

Defensive woes contribute to loss
Crosby, Sheffield collision one of many miscues in ALDS
By Mychael Urban / MLB.com
With two out, two on, a run in and the Yankees clinging to a one-run lead in the bottom of the second inning Monday, Adam Kennedy drilled a drive into the right-center gap off Mike Mussina.
Crosby, from his post in center field, ran back and to his left. Right fielder Sheffield ran back and to his right. When they ball came down, they ran into each other. The ball glanced away, bouncing back toward the infield as Sheffield tumbled. By the time Crosby ran it down and got it in, Kennedy was at third with a triple and the momentum in Game 5 of the American League Division Series had shifted.
The Angels added two more runs in the third and hung on for a 5-3 victory.
"[Kennedy] hit it well," Crosby said, "but as soon as he hit it, I knew I had a decent chance at getting there. And I'm sure Sheff felt the same way, because he got there, too. We got there at the same time, and I don't really know what happened after that. The ball came down at impact, we collided, and that was it."
"That's a tough play," said shortstop Derek Jeter. "And it's just one play."
Asked if communication was a problem, Crosby waved the notion off.
"Whether or not either one of us called it doesn't matter," he said. "With the [crowd] noise out there, there's no way we'd have heard each other anyway."
"We both had it," Sheffield said.
That neither got it, Mussina suggested, was nothing to dwell on. It's just part of the unpredictable package that is October baseball.
"How often do you see two outfielders run into each other when they can both catch the ball?" he asked. "That's the kind of thing you see in the postseason, and it's magnified because of when it happens. But you can't look to any one play and say, 'That was the big one.' It's little things that make the difference in the playoffs; a bunch of little things."
Defensively, the Yankees didn't do enough little things in the series. They tied the ALDS record with six errors in the five games, including costly miscues by Alex Rodriguez and Chien-Ming Wang in the Game 2 loss and seventh-inning errors by second baseman Robinson Cano and Sheffield in the Game 3 loss.
"Anaheim kind of does that to you with the style of baseball they play," Rodriguez offered. "Did we play tremendous defense? No. Was it from a lack of effort or concentration? No. I think it was a combination of things, and one of them is the way the Angels like to put pressure on your defense.
"They challenge you with their hustle, with their aggressiveness, so it's a chicken-or-the-egg thing. Did you make mistakes because of that threat, or did they cause you to make mistakes? It's difficult to analyze, but the Angels deserve some credit for keeping the pressure on."
Added Mussina: "They put the ball in play and got some breaks. That's how you win games this late in the year."

Seeking Pedagogical Places
In this paper, we explore the meaning of pedagogical place by focusing on significant relations between teachers, students, and the various places in which they appear to find pedagogical thoughtfulness. By opening up educational discourse to consider pedagogy beyond established notions of classroom practice, we invite readers to step outside perceived limits of classroom instruction. How might we know a pedagogical moment when we encounter one? When does a place become pedagogical? Formerly an outdoor educator of youth and an elementary teacher, now university teacher educators, we explore what it means to be in the right place, pedagogically. Some observations on pedagogical place that emerged after reflecting on the lived experiences of various teachers include: different places are appropriate for engaging in different kinds of pedagogical activities with students; activities can be experienced as in place or out-of-place; dwelling pedagogically is being absorbed, being able to dwell authentically in a learning experience without interruption or distraction; nature involves such areas as the natural ability and interests of the child, the relationship of the natural physical and social world, and the nature of learning.

The 1980s were a good decade for blockbuster films. Grandiose action comedies with ample opportunity for a few good explosions, these films also provided perfect fodder for videogames. Sure, the Atari 2600 and the NES weren't able to do much more than platforming or shoot em up versions of these films, but occasionally they were pretty fun.
Not the Back to the Future games. Those games were terrible titles that had little to do with the films, and were either weird skateboarding titles or a terrible platformer. While the films had plenty of exciting action moments, story, dialogue and exposition were so important to the film that making a game out of one element from the films makes for a bad game. Too bad no one ever thought about making a Back to the Future adventure game focused primarily on story. If Indiana Jones could do it, Back to the Future would have been better.
Well, Telltale Games got around to it, just twenty years later. It's for the best, as the resulting Back to the Future: The Game is a thoroughly engrossing adventure title with a story that sidles up to the film trilogy with no difficulty whatsoever. It's like running into an old college friend and finding that nothing between the two of you has changed. Visually beautiful with some of the best voice work in a game this year, Back to the Future: The Game is an utter joy to play.
Like most of Telltale's titles, Back to the Future: The Game is broken up into episodes. A full season will set you back about $25, which is a really great deal for the equivalent of a whole new interactive Back to the Future film. Any fan of the franchise would do well to pick up at least the first episode "It's About Time." Clocking in around three hours, "It's About Time" takes place about six months after the events of the third film. Doc has been AWOL since zooming off in a time-traveling train, and his stuff is being sold off by the bank. Marty is doing all he can to stop the sale, but with the unexpected arrival of the time traveling DeLorean, sans the Doc, it's off to a Prohibition-era Hill Valley to save Doc, assist Marty's grandfather from Biff's gangster father Kid Tannen, and even run into a teenage Doc Brown. The story is hilarious, the plot is engrossing, and the return of Doc, Marty, Mr. McFly and Biff brought a smile to my face.
It definitely follows the template of the films, even going so far as to replicate jokes from the movies (Marty's commentary on a 1930's shark film; Kid Tannen's close relationship to a manure truck). In many other franchises, this may be a problem, but with Back to the Future, it creates a cozy and familiar world instantly recognizable. There is a self-reference here that indicates Telltale is made up of some major fans of the movies, and they are more than ready to take a stab at this universe.
They did get it mostly right, but there are some odd omissions. For example, Doc's wife Clara and her children are nowhere to be seen, and while Doc does extrapolate a bit on them, they are mostly "out of sight, out of mind." Additionally, Jennifer and Marty's mom are out of the picture for now, so the game does feel a little…small. With four more episodes, hopefully some of these characters will make an appearance.
However, it truthfully is a little small. Since this is the first of five episodes, there really is only one main area, with a bunch of smaller side areas with one or two puzzles to complete each. That really is not much, and while spending time running around the famous courthouse square in 1931 is initially fun, it would have been nice to have more areas to explore. Thankfully, there is a solid sense of cohesiveness, and the story is designed to feel mostly complete, with a decent enough of a cliffhanger to tease for the next episode. With five episodes in total, there should be more than enough to replicate the plot of a fully featured film.
Like a lot of Telltale games, certain areas are repeated (barely excusable considering Marty goes back at different times, but whatever) and even a couple of the puzzles are used a more than once (oh hi voice recorder!). While not necessarily a bad thing, the puzzles are certainly on the easier side. I'm no adventure game genius, but I was able to get through most of the puzzles with no assistance. The times I did use the in-game hint system, I never felt like it was outright giving me the answer, but smartly pushing me in the right direction. Ultimately, this is one of the easier Telltale games, and the focus on story and narrative over gameplay is evident here. Pretty much anyone will have a great time with the game, just don't come here expecting a mind-bending game.
The visuals are very unique, striking a balance between realistic and outright cartoon. This avoids the problem of the uncanny valley, and it allows the characters to emote in a way that makes sense, especially with their eyes. Doc and Marty in particular, look great, and the new characters fit in pretty well, although Edna in particular seems more like a Sam and Max character than a Back to the Future figure. Over all, however, the game looks great, even on lower graphical settings. It'd be interesting to see how the game looks on the future PS3 and iPad ports.
The voice work is outstanding, in particular. Bringing Christopher Lloyd back to voice Doc Brown means he sounds just like the 1985 original. Marty McFly was unfortunately not voiced by Michael J. Fox. Thankfully, the voice actor Telltale hired to voice Marty, AJ LoCascio, does one of the best replications I've ever heard. Down to every voice crack and Marty-esque inflection perfectly replicates Fox's Marty, which is a very good thing. The music score is also outstanding, and the vaguely Huey Lewis and the News audio clips round things out nicely.
All in all, this first episode of Back to the Future: The Game bodes well for the following episodes. With a funny and engrossing story, and outstanding voice work, this is one game any fan of the franchise would do well to play. Yeah, some of the characters are a little out of place (here's looking at you, Edna), and the puzzles don't quite strike the balance between brain-teasing and being just plain easy. Everything comes together in the end to create a feel good cinematic experience that any fan of Back to the Future will want to check out, and everyone else would do well to check it out.

Website Design is definatly the most important part of the development process. This will in most cases be the first impression of your business or orginization. Online people want to be drawn into your website while easily finding the information that they came for.
Your website should be clean and simple, such as simple smooth graphics and easily read text. Make sure that all graphics on your website are high in quality but small in size (sometimes difficult to accomplish but definatly a must). Image backgrounds should be very light and work as a background as suggested. Many people have backgrounds that show through too much which causes not only a distraction from what you are trying to push accross to your readers but also as a deterent when people can't read text on the site. All graphics should be clutter free and placed only where they will serve a purpose to your visitors. While floating graphics and multiple images may look flashy it creates an environment thats more difficult to navigate and decreases your chances of keeping a visitor past the homepage. What a web surfer sees is less important than the message they recieve from the website. Be sure to keep flashing graphics, ad banners, and sounds to a bare minimum. Also popups are a huge no no unless being used specifically for an event that there is no other alternative.
Your site while needing graphics should focus primarily on text as this is the meat of the website and the only thing that will get your point accross. Avoid using flash at all cost, while flash is pleasing to the eye it will in no way help with exposure. Search engines cannot see text in flash files or within images so content must be displayed properly as physical text. All images that need to be used within the sit must have an alt tag which can and will be indexed by search engines. At least half of each page of your website should be text that describes that page with at least 2 links to other pages within your website.
Most important is the loading time of your pages. While most people nowdays have broadband of one kind of another the time it takes to load your page will most certainly impact the time someone stays at your site if they get there at all. Make sure that all images within any one page of your website total no more than 2 megs otherwise your pages load time will be greatly reduced. Also any style that you have within your website should be contained within style sheets.
Please chack back with Mofiki WorldWide for more articles to help you create websites to be proud of.

the one with glasses + cleavage? awesome
She's fine looking physically, no question, it's the loose whore up for a god time anytime look that doesn't do it for me. Call me old fashioned, I like the idea that the entire population of California hasn't already hit a girl before I got there.
/shrug, I knew a girl in HS who looked (and acted) like this one.....she was the town whore, and a druggie part girl, and druggie party girl doesn't appeal to me. So maybe I'm just biased.
Also, false advertising is lol:

Crawford, Belt homer in loss to Indians
Bumgarner allows one run on three hits with three strikeouts in two innings
By Chris Haft / MLB.com
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Brandon Crawford and Brandon Belt each homered for the Giants on Tuesday, but the Indians hit three of their own for a 4-3 victory in a Cactus League game.
Pinch-hitter Roberto Perez homered in the ninth inning to break a 3-3 tie and give the Indians the victory.
Cleveland jumped ahead 2-0 on Luis Hernandez's second-inning RBI single off Giants starter Madison Bumgarner and Juan Diaz's fourth-inning home run off veteran reliever Ramon Ramirez. The Giants pulled even against reliever Joe Smith in the fourth inning on Brandon Crawford's two-run homer, which followed Francisco Peguero's two-out single.
The teams kept trading homers. Cleveland regained the lead as Nick Swisher christened the fifth inning with his second spring homer, a drive to right field off Jake Dunning, before Brandon Belt, the hottest-hitting Giant, drilled his third spring homer in the sixth. Belt has 12 hits in his last 25 Cactus League at-bats.
Daisuke Matsuzaka strengthened his bid for the fifth spot in Cleveland's starting rotation with three shutout innings, yielding five hits but not walking a batter. The right-hander was twice aided by inning-ending double plays. After the Giants loaded the bases with one out in the first, Brandon Belt flied out to left field. Kensuke Tanaka tagged at third and tried to score on the play and was thrown out at the plate easily by Ryan Raburn. One inning later, Matsuzaka coaxed Hector Sanchez's comebacker and started a double play.
"It's something that tends to happen when I pitch," Matsuzaka said through an interpreter, referring to the difficulty he endured. "I understand that's part of how I pitch. It's not ideal, but it's something that I always think about when I'm out the mound. Whenever I get runners on, it's always important to think about how to get out of those jams and situations. There was a lot of luck today on my side, but it was important that I got out of those jams."
Up next for the Giants: Manager Bruce Bochy's squad will relax Wednesday during its first of two scheduled days off this spring. Activity will resume in earnest on Thursday at 12:05 p.m. PT, when Tim Lincecum is expected to oppose Cleveland and his former Rockies nemesis, Ubaldo Jimenez, at Goodyear, Ariz. Lincecum was scratched from his last scheduled start due to a blister on his right middle finger.

In NASCAR's infancy, seeing more than 70 cars on the track was always a possibility -- especially at tracks such as Darlington Speedway and Daytona International Speedway. A standard field size evolved along with the sport.
At first, entries gradually decreased due to prevailing economic hardships. Fields that were once 75 became fields of 40 as recent as 20 years ago -- and the number was closer to 30 cars on smaller tracks. At that point, fields were tailored to individual tracks and lacked a consistent method
Those numbers ticked upward to 42 and 36, respectively, until NASCAR -- which had long discussed the need to standardize fields -- implemented a mandatory 43-car field for all three national circuits for the 1998 season and beyond. The first 36 spots are decided in time trials, while spots 37-42 are determined with four provisionals.
The 43rd position is reserved for a former Sprint Cup champion that has not otherwise qualified.

New Campaign Strategy: Get Naked in Your Ads
Katarzyna Lenert would like to represent the good people of Poland in parliament—but first she would like to imitate the most famous scene in Basic Instinct and then slowly remove her clothing to the seductive sounds of jazz, in a campaign ad, because ... sex sells, and she's pro-business?
Maybe we're just being dense, but we can't put our finger on the racing pulse of Lenert's message here. Seems like it go one of several ways:
- I will serve the needs of my constituents. Please visit me during office hours. Appointment necessary.
- Vote for me, and I will screw you over, sexxxily.
- I'm that dash of spice that will heat up the cabbage soup that is Polish politics.
- I'm one hot tamale! Except I'm not a tamale at all, I'm Polish. I'm a hot pierogi.
- Cicciolina is my idol.
- I will never turn the lights on in my parliamentary office, and will therefore help conserve energy.
- I don't really want to be a politician, I just wanted to make a YouTube and see if it would go viral.
Not to be anti-feminist or anything, but we're gonna say that parliamentary candidate Jedrzej Wijas's demonic death metal ad is more successful than Lenert's because Wijas communicated his message and platform more clearly. If Lenert adds some textual cues relevant to her positions on things (not her sexual positions but her political ones) then maybe we'll reconsider her grade in political advertising, but as for now she gets a D for "Disrobing without cause."
Oh, and we're allowed to make dumb pierogi jokes because we were born with Polish genes. Dzień dobry.

I have a question about deleting a few. Here is a scenario. The program first asks the user to enter the name of a file to take to.
ostream outFile;
outFile.open(userchoice, ios:ut);
With ofstream, I found that it will create the file if it cannot find it. I tried implementing "nocreate," but VC++ 6 gave me an error that there is not such function "ios::nocreate."
Anyways, the program would create the file if it cannot find it and the file would be empty or 0 byte size. Afterward, the program calculates specific data (not worth mentioning) and outputs data to the outpuf *if applicatable*. So sometimes the program writes nothing and I would a 0 byte file under the name that the user originally entered.
I would like to know if there is a way to delete a file. So in the case above, there would be a line of code to delete the file if applicable.

- Belgian Grand Prix
Grosjean accepts penalty and apologises
- News:
Grosjean 'has definitely learned his lessons' - Boullier
- News:
D'Ambrosio named as Grosjean's replacement
- Race:
- Belgian Grand Prix
- Drivers:
- Romain Grosjean
- Teams:
- Lotus F1
Romain Grosjean has accepted his one race suspension for causing a first corner accident at the Belgium Grand Prix and apologised.
Grosjean will not be allowed to compete at next weekend's Italian Grand Prix after triggering an accident that took out four drivers and saw his Lotus fly perilously close to Fernando Alonso's head. The stewards decided to suspend Grosjean for the next race, and while he said he did not intend to cause the accident, the Lotus driver accepted his punishment and apologised.
"When your life is all about racing, not being allowed to attend an event is probably one of the worst experiences you can go through," he said. "That said, I do respect the verdict of the stewards. I got a good start - despite being disturbed by Pastor [Maldonado's] early launch, which I think was the case for everybody at the front - and was heading into the first corner when the rear of my car made contact with the front of Lewis [Hamilton]'s. I honestly thought I was ahead of him and there was enough room for both cars; I didn't deliberately try to squeeze him or anything like that.
"This first corner situation obviously isn't what anyone would want to happen and thankfully no-one was hurt in the incident. I wish to apologise to the drivers who were involved and to their fans. I can only say that today is part of a process that will make me a better driver."
Lotus team principal Eric Boullier said Lotus would not appeal the decision and would announce Grosjean's replacement over the next few days.
"It's been a tough day for the team but we fully respect the Stewards' decision. Romain won't be driving at Monza but he still has our full support. We'll announce the name of his replacement a bit later in the week."
Jerome d'Ambrosio is Lotus' test driver and last raced for Marussia at the final round of last year.

Starbucks Pilot Program Recycles Cups into Napkins
Will Starbucks really increase recycling? I admit I have a slanted approach to this story. I have met too many single mothers and college students who have relied on employment at Starbucks to keep their families on a health insurance plan or to put themselves through school. Now, I know many peers who rely on a clean, quiet Starbucks store to start a new business via their laptops or search for employment, thanks to Starbucks' (now unlimited) WiFi access.
As a road warrior sales executive in a past life, Starbucks provided a safe haven between business appointments, or a place to dry out when caught in the rain. The notion that Starbucks mows over independent stores is nonsense: more coffee stores exist because of the Seattle icon, not despite of it. Plus, in a nation beset by growing health problems and an obesity epidemic, I am pragmatic: I am all for an addiction to caffeine over one to fried foods.
Nevertheless, I still wince when I order a Starbucks coffee, knowing that those cups cannot be recycled. I admit I always stuff the java jacket into my back pocket or into a briefcase to ensure it will be recycled at home, but I know that token effort is not enough. And, even if those cups are made from 5% or 10% or 20% post-consumer content, I know that means the rest of the cup comes from pre-consumer trees. The waste is especially ridiculous when I order an espresso that comes in a cup that can carry 20 shots with room to spare. Finally, the fact that shareholders voted down a recent initiative to step up recycling efforts is more than disappointing—it's irresponsible. But there may be hope that Starbucks will solve its trash problem: its Chicago stores will start recycling used cups.
This fall, stores in the Second City will start sending used cups to a Green Bay, WI, paper mill, where a Georgia Pacific facility will turn them into napkins. The program will start small but is a significant step to address the company's devouring of 3 billion paper cups and 1 billion plastic cups annually. Starbucks wants recycling at all of its stores by 2015 and the company's leadership is focusing on two approaches: first, recycling bins at all of its stores, and second, finding a market for all those dirty cups that otherwise end up in a landfill.
The issue is not entirely Starbucks' fault: restaurant managers often resist change, partly because the industry endures high labor turnover, which makes rigorous training expensive and time-consuming. The As You Sow Foundation, which led the failed shareholder proposal, is impressed with this latest step, and acknowledges that finding a market for used paper cups while dealing with municipal waste procedures that vary from city to city is a huge challenge.

Endurance Horse Recovering from Tree Branch Impalement
- Feb 25, 2010
- Topics:
When Amigo arrived at the University of Tennessee Equine Hospital on January 17, with a 3-foot-long tree branch impaled in his side, veterinarians gave him a 2% chance of survival.
Luckily they underestimated the tenacity of the 10-year-old Arabian endurance horse, who is recovering from his injury and poised to go home in a week, said his owner, Gary Sanderson, of Luttrell, Tenn.
Amigo competing, the accident, and undergoing work at UT.
Amigo's ordeal began over a month ago when Sanderson found him standing in his pasture with the tree branch sticking out of his side.
"I was freaking out," Sanderson said.
After an attending veterinarian recommended euthanasia, Sanderson decided to take Amigo to the UT Equine Hospital. There veterinarians removed the branch, but the branch had broken two ribs and caused a lung to collapse. Amigo was fitted with drainage tubes in his lungs to help keep infection at bay and has been on eight different antibiotics, Sanderson said.
And it's been a bumpy road to recovery. In the last month Amigo has had four close calls. At one point a blood clot travelled to his brain and caused a seizure. At another point, Amigo's blood platelet count was at lethally low levels.
"It's been a grueling month, but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel," Sanderson said.
In the last few weeks, Amigo's story has spread around the Internet, and the horse now has a Facebook page with more than 4,000 fans who have rallied together to help Sanderson with the estimated $20,000 veterinary bill. So far, donors have raised $5,000.
Those interested in donating money for Amigo's care can send checks to:
University of Tennessee Large Animal Clinic Patient #211197 Amigo
c/o Business office, 2407 River Drive, Knoxville, TN; 37996
"I've had to take a second job to help pay his bills," Sanderson said. "I'm just amazed and humbled that this many people care about Amigo."
Sanderson doesn't know how the branch ended up in his horse's side, but hypothesizes that Amigo might have fallen on the branch, or a tree might have fallen on the horse in the 100-acre pasture that he shares with two other horses.

Does anyone have any recommendations? I'm especially looking for fics where Hagrid is very IC, and that are from his POV, or that highly involve him.

How do we know you actually have 240 volts at the back of the dryer where the cord connects? You have to use a voltmeter. There may be nothing wrong with the dryer mechanically. Many is the time I have found a breaker half-tripped, allowing the motor to run, but no heat. Same goes for a burned power cord terminal.
this dude here will cause the dryer not to heat. You must locate it. Hint : it will be near the blower outlet or heater duct.

I want to report what I believe is a bug with ZoneAlarm firewall (latest free version) running under Windows 2000 SP4 (with all security updates) with my Buffalo G54 wireless adapter.
When my machine first boots, the wireless adapter has no IP address.
ZoneAlarm reports that its IP address is 0.0.0.0.
After I connect, it
assumes the static address of 192.168.11.11 (I'm not using DHCP here at my home office) and
ZoneAlarm still reports
its address is 0.0.0.0.
ZoneAlarm then blocked all packets because it thinks they have been routed through my computer (see report below).
In order to access the internet, I have to shut down ZoneAlarm while my wireless adapter is connected, then restart it.
Here's a detailed log report on one blocked packet:
