Reviewed by David Burgess McGregor
When a debut collection of work is published there is often a risk that the impatience of the author might lead to rushing material rather than waiting for a collection that is a round object. Or, what is more likely, the author is still finding their voice and it only shows itself completely formed in a few exceptional moments. As a reader and reviewer I certainly do not expect first time authors to have the ability to produce patiently crafted and mature work, which is what makes Edmontonian Greg Bechtel's Boundary Problems such a notable exception.
Boundary Problems is made up of ten stories, covering a broad variety of startlingly specific characters and situations. As the title suggests, many of the stories (three of them combining into the epic "Smut Story" parts I-III) push into territory that sits in between satisfying definition, or even distinguishable dimensions. Though the cover gleefully expresses that the stories are about "paranoia, sex, conspiracies, and magic," Bechtel finds a way into these topics that sidesteps any of the predictable showiness that these classifications might suggest. From the schizo-abduction/abductee voicing of "Blackbird Shuffle" to the impossibly telepathic taxi dispatcher in "The Mysterious East," to the society of mentally ill cultural resistors that meet in the backroom of a Tim Horton's, there is undoubted energy and excitement in the way that these stories attempt to peel back at least one layer of reality. But it is the way that Bechtel combines these 'out there' themes with more practical (though equally complicated) instances of boundary pushing that make the collection work as a unified and interesting whole.
Perhaps what is most surprising and satisfying about this book is Bechtel's persistent willingness to take real chances in terms of where the narratives might lead. Bechtel demonstrates a rare devotion to pursuing tension in his characters even if it means pushing into uncertain or unflattering territory. It never feels like a sure thing that the character (or even the reader) will emerge unscathed. Like the vantage points that writers such as Tobias Wolff take up, Bechtel is interested in exposing personal humiliations or shortcomings, but also in doing it so that it ultimately feels cathartic. This tendency is evident even in the narrator's voice in "The Concept of a Photon":
"The overflowing ashtrays on every available surface and the underlying reek of stale smoke say working class. Like Bruce and his buddies. By comparison, I feel sheltered, bourgeois, and somehow less real."
The writing is necessarily personal because there is no veil or illusion of ultimate control that diffuses the impact of uncertainty. As readers we sense the openness of this approach, the willingness not to be in control, and it makes it exciting to be a part of the stories as they unfold. Ultimately it is a gamble to throw yourself into subject matter that you do not completely control, but it is also one way of trying to write something that might actually matter.
Many of the stories are centrally concerned with sex, but explore it in a way that allows the paradoxes of desire to be present alongside what might be understood as more conventional aspects of sexuality. Most notably in stories like "The Evertt-Wheeler Hypothesis" and the title piece "Boundary Problems," characters traverse the usual but formidable challenges of understanding their own sexuality, but the reality of their partners is refreshingly present. This empathy for the partner includes sexual histories made muddy by encounters with abuse. Though the decision to face the very real epidemic of sexual abuse is laudable, it is Bechtel's ability to push this topic into unfamiliar and uncomfortable territory that makes his writing significant.
In the story "Boundary Problems" the teenage protagonist (Michael) is involved in a relationship where his own actions get blurry in relation to an experience that his girlfriend had with boy a year or two prior to their meeting. Bechtel is willing to blur the line between abuser and lover, or more particularly, willing to let his character sincerely wonder about what he might have buried inside himself:
"Now she wants Michael to understand what it means when she says his name like that, but he knows he can't understand. Not Really. When she says his name, he stops, and that is enough."
This tendency to question borders or 'boundaries' weaves its way throughout the collection, continually showing how defining lines are essential but perhaps don't matter in the ways that we think they do.
What makes Bechtel's approach in Boundary Problems effective is that every story is grounded in meticulously well-balanced prose and attention to detail. The certainty of the prose ensures that the thread is never lost even in some of the most ambiguous and obscure corners of reality:
"At precisely 4:03 a.m., the infomercial blurs and slows, melts softly into static and white noise. The hiss of the static reminds him of running humidifiers, a hum of childhood colds, warm blankets, bedtime stories, and tuckings-in. When the static clears, he sees himself, sitting in his empty living room. He waves, and his televised self waves with him."
This excerpt from "Junk Mail" is a good example of how Bechtel consistently hurdles the descriptive trip-wires that bog down so much popular fiction. The details provide momentum and insight instead of feeling like you are being withdrawn from the moment in order to be given an all too hypothetical context. Perhaps the believability of the details in the book is partly owing to Bechtel's formidable list of previously held jobs (visual basic programmer, camp counsellor, cab driver). His list of work experience is suspiciously similar to the jobs that his characters are engaged in.
While there are a great many things right with Boundary Problems, the commitment to ambiguity that Bechtel exhibits occasionally leaves some of his characters stranded in an uncomfortable way. The stories cover an extreme amount of narrative ground in the short time that we spend with them, and sometimes this makes the departure points feel like they come up short of significant or satisfying resolution. Though a lack of resolution is often preferable to a tightly wrapped gift of a conclusion, in "The Concept of a Photon" and "The Mysterious East" it feels like the stories end a step or two before we are ready (even ambiguously) to let go.
In spite of any drift that occurs in Boundary Problems, Bechtel's eagerness to transparently deal with tension as well as his ability to craft beautiful prose make this a rare and valuable addition to the world of Canadian literature. My only concern is that Bechtel will have some difficulty finding an equally strange collection of jobs and life experiences to inspire him in his future projects.
In the work of writers like Guy de Maupassant or even J.D. Salinger there is a sense of particularity in their understanding of both their place and time. More than just consistency in style or theme, they convey place and time in a decidedly un-generic and unconventional way that works through specificity to find some kind of universality. Though I do not want to draw too strong of a comparison here, there is a sense in Boundary Problems that you are seeing strange slivers of Canadian life that are particular to Bechtel's perspective but rich with wider relevance. Bechtel reaches for nuances in the dissolution of boundaries and definitions in contemporary culture in a way that shows you things about our cultural moment. The consistency of voice and meticulous pacing of Boundary Problems suggest that Bechtel and Freehand were patient in developing this ambitious collection, allowing it to mature rather than rushing it into publication. Every story justifies its place and works to enhance the collection as a whole. It is an articulate debut from a well-developed (and hopefully prolific) new voice in Canadian fiction.

In what is only the second year for this category, the Pasta House wins again. "Our cheese garlic bread is to die for," says Trish Pace, general manager of the St. Louis Galleria Pasta House. "It's wonderful to accompany a salad or pasta. It's got that garlic-butter base with mozzarella and Provolone cheese, and then we bake it until it's golden brown and serve it piping hot -- or, as Kim Tucci likes to say, till it's molten-lava-melted-cheese garlic bread."

Section Information for Spring 2018
This course is a thematic examination of the history of crime and its policing and prosecution in the United States from the 1860s to the present. It will consider crime as a feature of modern American life and as a window on the past by exploring changes over time in the criminal justice system, and in the incidence, definition, and policing of offenses such as murder, prostitution, rape, robbery, organized crime, and juvenile crime. We will also explore different historical approaches to the study of crime. The major assignment is a digital project using newspapers in the Library of Congress' Chronicling America collection to analyse crime in a particular time or place.

Here you will find a brief description of the game. For any requests, doubt or information don't hesitate to write to our EMAIL address or to contact one of the following game figures:
1-The site administrators the Admin Project (AP).
2-Those who help the administrators with some tasks , that is the Expert Project (ExP)
In MyGPTeam your task is that of driving a formula 1 team to success. At the time of registration you will receive the property of one F1 Team, so you become its owner and it carries the name that you choose. When you become an owner of a MyGPTeam account, it will not be possible to delete it with an automatic and immediate decision. To delete your account you have to wait 6 weeks without logging onto the site, and you will receive an automatic email that will inform you about the end of your account. As team owner you have some drivers in your payroll, 3 at the beginning who are provided with a contract and salary, some engineers (max 7) and a mechanic technician staff and another figure who will be analysed below. Furthermore each team has a storehouse where you can keep the components to assemble your cars (at the beginning the storehouse is provided with 2 components for each type except the set of tyres which are 6), a laboratory where engineers and technicians plan and build advanced technologies and your own circuit of which tribunes and asphalt quality are managed and it's possibile to change the basic layout changing the quantity of bends and of height differences as you like. MyGPTeam is organized into championships. A total of 10 teams take part to each championship, which lasts 10 weeks. When the season ends the team which has the major number of points wins the championship (and eventually it is promoted to a higher category) and the 4 teams which have the least number of points degrade to an inferior category. Races of each 1-season Grand Prix are disputed in turn in the circuits of the 10 teams of the round. Drivers and components of each company at stake can be put on the market to create real sales.
Promotions and relegations
Promotion and relegations in each round occur in this way:
1)the first of each round all go up
2)eventually the best second, third, fourth, fifth and so on go up according to how many bots there are in the superior championship (ex: in f1 there are 3 bots, from f2 the best 3 seconds go up (unless the bots are already degraded))
3)7-8-9-10 degrade in any case (if in the inferior formula there are enough championships, otherwise the best seven can save themselves, then the eighth and so on).

News Corp.'s pioneering iPad newspaper The Daily could be on the chopping block. Competitor The New York Daily reported Thursday that rumors within News Corp. say that The Daily has been put "on watch" in the middle of a major restructuring at the media giant. Citing unnamed sources, the newspaper said that News Corp. plans to reassess the status of The Daily after the U.S. elections that take place in November.
Launched in February of 2011, The Daily was a big gamble by News Corp. when it was envisioned in 2010. News Corp. chairman Rupert Murdoch bought into then-Apple CEO Steve Jobs's vision of the iPad as the future of media consumption long before the iPad was the massive success it is today.
The company built a dedicated infrastructure of reporters, editors, developers, and sales people whose sole job was to produce daily content for a publication that was initially available only on the iPad. It has since been brought to the iPhone and "select" Android tablets on Verizon.
That commitment was a clear demonstration of just how much potential Rupert Murdoch saw in media tablets in general and the iPad in particular, but the financial reality is that The Daily is estimated to be losing US$30 million per year at this point.
What's $30 million between friends when it comes to the future of newspapers, you might ask? Unfortunately for The Daily, that $30 million price tag comes while News Corp. is facing an existential crisis sparked by the phone hacking scandal in the UK that has threatened the company's very existence.
When news broke that reporters for the tabloid rag News of the World had been hacking voicemail accounts of crime victims, celebrities, politicians, and others, News Corp. announced it was closing the paper, which had been in existence since 1843.
It was the biggest newspaper in the UK and a very profitable rag for News Corp., and the entire company's reputation took a major hit that is still reverberating today. More recently, News Corp. announced that it was splitting up its newspaper publishing business from its more profitable TV business based around Fox and Fox News.
It's that process that has the company reassessing its commitment to The Daily, as newly promoted COO Chase Carey has been figuring out what's working and what's not working within the company.
For now, the app is a free download from the App Store, with subscription access required to access most of the content. Subscriptions are available by the week ($0.99) and year ($39.99) for iPad, or by the month ($1.99) or year ($19.99) for iPhone. Verizon Android tablet owners can subscribe by the month ($3.99) or year ($39.99).

The Concept
Bostonia Public House is an elegant renewal of a classic meeting place that celebrates the history, traditions and people of Boston. The restaurant includes an exposed kitchen serving 'refined-rustic' cuisine, bars on two floors (including an impressive 110 ft. walnut bar), event spaces and private rooms with soft seating.
The food & beverage offerings are intended to be approachable and stylish. Imaginative and locally-inspired menus, diverse wine by the glass offerings, and elegant live entertainment combine to promote a vibrant social scene.
The Building
Bostonia is a concept that pays homage to all things Boston including the historical architecture that defines and beautifies our city. We are fortunate to have acquired a space that fits our concept and mission. We are ideally situated in The Board of Trade Building on the corner of State Street and Broad Street in the heart of the Financial District and adjacent to Faneuil Hall.
The building was constructed in 1902 by architects Winslow and Bigelow. At the end of the 19th Century their firm was considered the largest architectural firm in Boston.
The Design
Bostonia Public House, designed by HGTV Host / Food Network Designer Taniya Nayak, is an elegant yet unpretentious addition to the restaurant landscape of downtown Boston. The space thoughtfully integrates rustic elements with modern accents. Iconic architecture, raw building materials, vintage finishes are juxtaposed and flattered by distinctive lighting, glossy brick treatments and marble flooring. The cognac / coffee tones exude a casual stylishness and foster a warm, approachable feel. Nayak says, "The intent was to give reverence to the City's rich heritage and mingle in contemporary touches crafting a genuinely alluring gathering spot."
The Experience
Welcoming, Engaging, and Entertaining.
The atmosphere is best described as sociably sophisticated. An ambiance that lends itself to both a polished dining experience and spirited bar environment. An attractive space for discerning urbanites and casual diners alike. A place where friends can socialize after work, anyone can pull up a stool and feel at home, and visitors come to revel in the 'Boston experience'.

My dear unborn child,
I am writing this letter to you almost a decade before I can even think of conceiving you. I am writing this, to let you know, that I am never letting you come into this world. I have always been scared of the process of delivering a baby. However, my concerns are far greater than that pain today. And hence, my reasons, stronger.
Let me tell you that this world isn't as beautiful as it seems on the outside. That being said, neither does everyone know how to survive in this not-so-beautiful world. What if you, my dear child, turn out to be one of such individuals?
What if you're a boy? What if you turn out to be the kind of boy who breaks the heart of an innocent girl? What if you are disrespectful enough to flaunt an imaginary list of real girls who would sleep with you? What if you're coward enough to not have any principles? What if you're irresponsible enough to not call me back as soon as you see my missed call? What if you're careless enough to make choices about your life that would affect your closed ones? What if you drink like you breathe and are dumb enough to live on weed? What if, before I die, you, the love of my life, cease to exist?
And what if you're a girl? What if you never learn to stand up for your rights? What if you are a submissive girlfriend? What if you're crazy enough to think that sleeping with a guy will make him like you? What if someone tries to pinch your butt? What if you do not have the guts to slap the shit out of the guy who pinches your butt? What if you're incapable enough to sort the priorities in your life? What if you're foolish enough to let a guy fuck you without a condom? What if you're scared enough to never make mistakes or stupid enough to repeat them? What if you drink like you breathe and are dumb enough to live on weed? What if, before I die, you, the love of my life, cease to exist?
What if you're neither born a girl, nor a boy, but a Chutiya instead who makes one or more of these "What ifs" come to life? And what if, (sigh) What if I change my mind and let you come to this world and you don't come to me and promise to be a worthy child after I've let you read this letter?
Baby, I can be the mother who hands you your first drink or buys you your first condom. I can ask your father to tell you which site has better porn to offer. I can let you cry on my lap after you're first breakup and rejoice with you on your first kiss. I can embrace you if you come out of the closet. But I can't have you not question yourself when someone says to you "Maa-Baap ne yahi sikhaya hai?" I can't let you breathe life into my innumerable fears. And I can't, I just can't let you out in this world if you choose succumb your choices irrespective of their consequences.
Love always,
Your loving but scared mother-to-be.

University has unique forms of teaching and expectations which are placed on students, which some students find difficult to cope with. The following podcasts highlight key features of studying at university and contains tips which may help you with the transition from your previous background to studying at university.
It does make it easier I guess. It does become easier as time goes on, as you get more experience in things, your writing becomes better, your vocabulary improves, your style improves . You time management improves. Your connections that you have made, your professional connections, have improved and you also know what sources you should go for first. Whereas in the first year, you didn't know should I be looking at text books? Should I be looking at journals? Should I be looking at websites? You start off thinking, ok, I've got this assignment. The first thing that I should be looking at is this journal that talks about the module, and then find something in there. You can actually ask for advice and feedback. Cos in A Levels, I was just told, 'give it in, and then leave it, forget it and that's it'. But then at university, the lecturers actually have more time for you. So, as long as you book an appointment, they can sit down with you, and say 'this is how you should be doing it', because they have a passion for it, they really do have a passion for what they have done. They may have their PHDs in it, or their Masters, or something. So they know what they are talking about, really deeply. So if you just ask them 'what can I do here? What can I do there? How can I pursue that? How can I change this?' They can sit down with you for an hour or so and help you out, no problem.
It's the freedom I guess. I call it freedom. Some people may find it daunting I guess. Erm, because you are just there in a field of, well, you could have maybe 7000 students around you. And they have to do whatever is asked of them, but on their own accord. So, you are not being helped along. You are not being told, 'if this is what you need to do today, then tomorrow you do this, and then you hand that in, and then you do this.'... No, they just tell you 'this is what you need to do in the next twelve weeks'. So, do that. And no one is going to be there telling you need to come into lectures every day. You need to get up, and you need to come and meet me and you need to come and talk about this coursework. It is all up to you. If you want more advice, you have to come and ask. If you don't, then it is your loss. The lecturer, it is not their role, I think to be chasing you down. It is that maturity that you have to learn I think, when you change. So I think you are left on your own at university. Some people like it, and I like it. But some may find it scary, to know that everything is down to them. Especially as they are used to being helped, after however many years, which started at school. The autonomy. You become autonomous. In college and in 6th form, they had a set timetable. They would tell you 'this week, we are doing this, next week we are doing that. And you should have this by this time and that by that time', but because uni doesn't just break things down just like that. They just give you a big stretch. So, one task, a big task, within this big chunk of time. So you won't know when this chunk when that other chunk should be done.
I found that the only way that you can find out what you should be doing is working backwards. So, if hand in date is say 30th April, work backwards and say 'how many days do I need to save for referencing? How many days do I need to sort out the conclusion? How many days do I need for this and that?', so working backwards, and then you can see, there is already a timetable there.
We didn't have to do any extra reading at A-level, so that's probably the main thing; you really have to be disciplined and motivated to go after the lecture and do the reading. That's the main thing. The second thing is probably, you have more little tasks at A-level study, you know, 'go and look into this', whereas at university its generally not like that, you'll just get one piece of coursework and it's up to you to manage your own time and when that's due in, there'll be no-one saying 'remember this is due in next week', it's down to you to remember that that's the deadline and that's the time. Whereas I think A-level teachers are more 'have you started?', or 'how are you getting on with it?' or 'when's it due in?' and things like that – so you've still got very much someone making sure you're on track: but you really have to be self disciplined with that. I think those are probably the 2 main things that I would say – just be on the ball with things and up to date, get a diary and make sure everything is written in and everything's on track basically.
I think for me, if I'd come straight from school, obviously it would been, but it eased you in, because school was very much like 'do this do this', A-level was kind of a little bit more slack with it but still on that guideline and then university was just that one step. It is almost a gradual process and I do think that there is some sort of reason for that, I think they do try to prepare people for university as much more independent and things like that. But I'm quite organised anyway so I didn't find it a problem, but that's why I'd say if you're not used to doing it definitely getting a big calendar stuck up on your wall or a diary would be really important to do, so you can kind of a) have the deadlines due in and even writing up targets for where you want to be in coursework is also really useful to put on your calendar because you can make sure you're sticking to that and that you don't panic at the last minute.
The shift from school or college to university is quite a big step in many ways, apart from many students moving away from home and all that excitement. But there's, in terms of their learning, being at university is different from studying for 'A' Levels or whatever other qualifications you did beforehand. Some students make the mistake of thinking that they can reproduce the work that they've done in their previous schools for university and that's a mistake because the level of analysis, the depth of understanding that's required is very significantly higher at university than it is at school or college. So when you look at your texts you will see that they are in much more detail, they are in much more depth and even if you studied a particular topic before you will be required to go into more depth and be more critical. One of that universities is setting out to help you learn is critical thinking, how to step back and be critical and say does this make sense? Is there evidence for this? What is the logic behind this? Where is the experimental data? Where is the analysis? So you need to be very critical and to be able to justify everything that you say in terms of assessments, so as a basic rule every statement that you make must be justified objectively. So rather than saying that whether you like something or don't like something; it's a matter of saying how you can evidence that. That the main difference between school or university. In general terms, school is about the knowledge of things and university is about the knowledge of those things perhaps in more depth but with the addition of being critical.
In schools and colleges, you are set lots of deadlines as you are going through the school year, for getting coursework in, for getting feedback on your coursework, for re-writing the coursework. That doesn't tend to happen at university level. Usually there is a deadline for the assignment, and there might be a deadline for producing a draft of something, but you will have to impose the deadlines on yourself, for when you want to get work done by. It is very much left in the students' hands, and that I think can be quite a difficult thing to work through.
Depending on what kind of school or college or sixth form or F.E. college that you have come from, you will be in a smaller or a larger class than you will find in university. A lot of our lectures are very large indeed, with maybe hundreds of people in them, so you are not going to get that kind of one-one tuition that you might find in a classroom environment when you are studying at school or in another institution of F.E.
Well there's one similarity that I'll start with, that at school, college and at university all the resources are deployed to help you do the best you possible can and that's the similarity. The difference is at school and college people tell you and take you to those opportunities and they guide you through it at university you have to take more responsibility for doing that yourself. And that can feel a bit strange to begin with. But actually this is about developing exciting higher level graduate skills that make you very employable. So what you need to do although they are scary, what I normally say to students unless you're a bit scared, unless you're a bit uncomfortable you're not learning. If things are easy, actually you need to challenge yourself a bit more. And university isn't easy, at each stage it's a bit more difficult, you're expected to read more, to think more, to challenge more and that's part of the process. So don't worry, if you're off the scale worried, anxious there are things you can do to get you to the right sort of scale. A bit of anxiety a bit of difficulty a bit of challenge working it out for yourself is really important. And as my granny used to say to me "you get in life what you put in" and it's the same in education if you put some effort in, you will get more out than you put in.
I think when you are at school it's quite often that and at college, that you're being prepared simply to get through your exams, almost that there is more coaching that goes on in those settings, they are very good, I mean you wouldn't be coming to university unless they helped you to do that. But I think when you come to university, it is about developing yourself as more autonomous independent learner and actually setting yourself up for lifelong life wide learning to become flexible and responsive to your learning, that if something new comes up you think about where you could find out more information about it not necessarily being told where to go. So it's using your own initiative in learning, managing your own time, you've probably moved away from home quite often so you've got to really start to put in place you own time management in learning, nobody's going to tell you to do your homework, you've got to make the effort to do that.

Ars Technica author Peter Bright wrote a very thorough review of Windows Phone 7, and as usual, it's a good read that gives a lot of detail on Microsoft's last ditch effort in the mobile industry. "Microsoft doesn't often get version one releases right, but this time, it has got the release very right indeed," Bright concludes, "Windows Phone 7 looks great, works well, and is a treat to use. Market success isn't assured, but judged on its merits alone, this is a platform that absolutely deserves to succeed, and I really, really hope it does."
Great, but what about that humour? Well, Bright describes two instances where Windows Phone 7 shows a sense of class, style, and humour that I would normally not expect to come out of Redmond. For instance, there's a live tile on you homescreen which shows the number of unread text messages. Normally, the tile shows a simple smiley face. However, once the unread text message count starts to go up, the smiley face changes with it, from a blinking smiley face, all the way to a surprised (:-o) and upset smiley face once you hit four or more unread text messages.
Then there's the find-my-phone feature which allows you to lock remotely lock, wipe, etc., the phone, while displaying a message on the phone. There's a number of built-in messages with smiley faces that are pretty fun in a rather dry way.
Most of you probably won't understand why I make such a big deal of this, but then, there will be a few long-time BeOS fans reading this who will get this perfectly. Stuff like this may seem frivolous, but what it does is important: it gives your software personality. BeOS did stuff like this as well, such as the haiku error messages in Net+, or the "Bummer." dialogue in BeAM when something went wrong.
This overly serious technology world could do with some infusion of lightheartedness - too many people take software way too seriously. So, Microsoft releasing a solid version 1.0 product, with great aesthetics and a sense of humour? Something must be very wrong with this world.
I blame piracy.

Prebaking is the secret behind a perfect crust for this elegant and rich tart. Line the pastry-filled tart pan with a double thickness of aluminum foil and prebake. The double layer of aluminum foil keeps the crust from bubbling up as it cooks, so the crust remains flat and even when the filling is added.

Kenny Robertson's first trip to Brazil was a perfect one, as the UFC fighter scored a submission victory over Thiago Perpetuo last month.
Competing in another country is nothing new for Robertson, but doing so in Brazil was. He's previously fought in Canada and Finland, along with Puerto Rico.
"We were escorted to the event venue by security guards with automatic rifles, so that was different," said Robertson, during a recent interview with FightLine. "I knew that I would get booed and had prepared for it."
Taking on a Brazilian, Robertson (13-3) left the crowd stunned in silence after securing a rear-naked choke on Perpeuto in the first round. It was his second submission victory since signing with the UFC, and sixth of his career.
"There were still some boos but not nearly as many (after the fight)," he said. "I'm not sure if the crowd was more respectful or just quieted. Either way, I do respect how Brazilians get behind their native fighters."
Robertson was coming off a 2013 decision loss to Sean Pierson. He is now 2-3 in five UFC appearances, with the other defeats being to Aaron Simpson and Mike Pierce.
A former wrestler at Eastern Illinois University, Robertson has turned himself into a well-versed expert when it comes to the submission game. He's won fights via rear-naked choke, a modified kneebar, keylock and armbar since turning pro in 2008.
"Once I hit the mat, I'm just always thinking 'improve position,'" he said. "I went for the rear-naked and had to adjust to a short choke. If you look, it's not a rear-naked, it's a short choke."
After the fight, Robertson took a few extra days to relax and enjoy the weather in Brazil, as he said he "hung out with my wife and cornermen at the beach. It was nice."
Two issues did come up once he reached the foreign country, though, involving his diet.
"Only having bottled water and no Subway sucked, but other than that, it was normal," Robertson said.
Now back home in Ilinois, Robertson is in his "prep period."
"I'm slowly getting back into training," he added. "I don't feel the need to call any one person out. I'll fight whoever they put in front of me."

Ontarians worried Trump presidency will hurt auto industry, Mainstreet poll finds
The massive, even foreboding, presence of Donald Trump's presidency is causing jitters for many Ontarians over the province's all-important auto industry, an exclusive poll conducted for Postmedia suggests.
More than half of Ontarians — 55 per cent — say they believe Trump's economic policies will hurt Canada's auto sector, which is based largely in Ontario.
In Southwestern Ontario, home to thousands employed at auto assembly and parts plants up and down the Hwy. 401, the belief Trump will harm the industry on this side of the border is less, with one-third of those surveyed by Mainstreet Research saying so and the rest — evenly divided — either saying the new president's administration won't hurt the sector or that they're not sure.
Trump's tough talk on trade and erratic behaviour is fuelling uncertainty, one industry observer says.
"It's because we still don't know exactly what his policy will be," said Carlos Gomes, an automotive analyst with Scotiabank.
The new administration in the U.S. has talked soft when it comes to tariffs on Canadian goods, focusing more on Mexico. But a border tax has been proposed by Republicans in Congress which would hit — and hurt — Canadian industry, although Trump has said he does not "love it."
"It appears to be controversial in the U.S., but it has been introduced. It is creating more uncertainty, more potential concerns here," said Gomes.
The chief economist with the Conference Board of Canada agreed, saying that while Canada isn't on the radar now when it comes to trade issues with the U.S., the main market for Ontario's auto industry, that may change.
"As an economic forecaster I don't know how to build Trump into my expectations of the economy. We don't know what we will get," Craig Alexander said.
Mainstreet – Ontario February 2017 by Mainstreet on Scribd
Trump has called the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) with Canada and Mexico a disaster, but after a meeting this week with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said the U.S. is focused more on its trade imbalance with Mexico.
NAFTA only needs a "tweak" with Canada, he said.
It's a critical issue for Ontario, based on the sheer weight of the auto sector in the province.
The industry employs more than 100,000 Ontarians, contributing $6.1 billion to the provincial economy, according to 2015 figures from Unifor, the national union representing auto workers.
In the London area alone, manufacturing — dominated by the auto industry — employs about 30,000 people.
"Trump's policies could still disadvantage us, it is hard to know what we are going to get. The new administration is still formulating policy," said Alexander.
For proof, look no further than the NAFTA, which Trump campaigned on "ripping up" and now says he will "tweak," said Alexander.
"That is what creates uncertainty."
Alexander said he agrees the proposed border tax is also a concern, saying "what Congress is considering is potentially more dangerous" than renegotiating NAFTA.
That's because Canadian provinces trade more with the U.S. than with each other — we're north-south traders, not east-west, he said.
But there's some comfort the U.S. Administration is well aware that Canada has balanced trade with the U.S. — that is, we import and export about the same value of goods to the U.S. as it does to us.
Mexico, on the other hand, sells a lot more to the U.S. than it imports, leaving the Americans with a trade deficit with Mexico.
"Canada is not the target" of trade concerns, Alexander said..
That message seems to resonate with Southwestern Ontarians surveyed in the poll, where concern about Trump's fallout for the auto industry were significantly less than across Ontario as a whole.
That's because those who work in the sector understand Canada has not been targeted, Mainstreet pollster Quito Maggi said.
"We always talk about the difference between public opinion and expert opinion ,and engaged views and non-engaged views, and why there is a gap there," said Maggi, Mainstreet's chief executive.
"People who know more have fewer concerns."
Ben Whitney, a London manufacturer, understands that split better than most.
"I have been nervous, but lately I am feeling better," said the president of Armo-Tool.
Whitney's company makes machinery for automotive plants, doing business in Canada and the U.S. and with a quarter of his sales to Mexico, making him uniquely positioned to assess trade fears.
He said he's uncertain whether the aggressive American tone of slapping tariffs on goods from Mexico will spread here. But Trudeau's trip to Washington for a first meeting with Trump helped to allay those fears.
"It did a lot to reassure me about my situation. If this is more about fair trade than free trade, we would benefit," he said.
If tariffs rise on goods from Mexico into the U.S., it will help Ontario businesses selling into the U.S., he added.
"It will make us more competitive. Right now, we are not on the radar as a trade issue," he added.
With the auto sector so integrated in North America, any big changes could have a significant impact in Ontario, Gomes noted. He said 60 per cent of the parts that make up Canadian-made vehicles originate in the U.S.
"It could have a significant impact on both sides of the border," he said of any new tariffs.
"One of the things the Canadian delegation (to Washington this week) "did is make them aware of how integrated the industry is, that there is supply chain between the two countries."

By Lauren Albright ′16
Active Minds is a nonprofit organization with chapters on college campuses across the country dedicated to increasing students' awareness of mental health issues. This year, Mark Farley '16 started a chapter of Active Minds at Rhodes College. A transfer from Washington and Lee, Farley wanted to provide a safe place for students to start talking about mental health. The chapter has gained a substantial number of members already, and they are making an impact on campus.
The events sponsored by Active Minds for National Eating Disorder Awareness (NEDA) Week, which occurs every year around this time, is one example. In the past, advertising at Rhodes for Awareness Week was minimal, and many students didn't know about it. Farley wanted to use his position in Active Minds to change that.
Farley and others began planning for this week last semester, with their biggest event being a three-mile fund-raising walk through campus and Overton Park. On the morning of the walk, 180 people participated, raising more than $8,000 for NEDA. The money raised through the walk goes to various organizations and counseling centers that NEDA feels need the most funding. (A list of places that NEDA sent money to this year can be found at http://nedawareness.org.)
The second event, held the following night, was a lecture from Stacy Nadeau, who started the Dove Real Beauty campaign. Sallie Handley '15, a student who works in the counseling center, helped to plan this event, among others, with Farley. The lecture was a huge success, with an audience of more than 500 students.
The next night, a lecture from Rhodes psychology professor Dr. Rebecca Klatzkin was held to discuss the relationship between binge eating disorders and stress. Attendance included a crowd of both faculty members and students. The event was similar to a discussion-based class, where students and faculty could ask Professor Klatzkin questions about various topics and issues based on the research presented about binge eating disorders and stress.
The final event of Awareness Week was a student panel of volunteers who gave testimonials about their personal experiences with eating disorders. Students who volunteered to speak went through the counseling center to be sure that they were ready to share their stories. More than 100 students, representing all class years and every facet of campus, attended. Says Farley, "This is the first time, to my knowledge, that something like this has happened on campus. We were looking for students willing to have open discussions about their experiences, and I think it brings us one step closer to getting involved in the discussion about eating disorders."
Overall, Awareness Week was a great success, and the work that Active Minds has done has significantly increased awareness about mental health and eating disorders on campus. If you would like more information about the organization and ways to get involved, contact Mark Farley at email@example.com.

A snickerdoodle cookie is one of my favorite holiday cookies. They have the perfect balance of buttery softness and slight crispiness, with a warm cinnamon-sugar aroma that draws me in every time. I share these Cream Cheese Frosting-Filled Snickerdoodle Sandwich Cookies often with family and friends this time of year, which means my oven is almost always pumping out a fresh batch of snickerdoodles. This is especially handy for last-minute guests coming over for dinner and dessert!
Recently, I started to think about how to transform the snickerdoodle cookie into something even better: a scrumptious sandwich cookie. Of course! What's better than one snickerdoodle? Two sandwiched together, in harmony with a dollop of delicious cream cheese frosting made with creamy PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese whipped with coconut flakes and fragrant vanilla. Does that sound good to you? I thought so.
Bake a batch of these cookies for someone you love, a teacher or a new pal, or share them with your family. Think of someone who might need a reason to smile or a pep in their step. A visit or phone call and something sweet will surely cheer them up. What's not to love about a nice hello and a batch of cookies?
As much as I love a snickerdoodle cookie, the absolute best part of this recipe might be the cream cheese frosting! I have never been talented with whipping up fabulous frostings from scratch, but I truly love using PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese in my frostings. Because it is made with fresh milk and real cream, this cream cheese lends the most perfectly smooth texture to my dessert toppings. It is heavenly light and luscious every time.
These snickerdoodle cookies are so simple to make, you can even get the kids involved! Let them mix cinnamon and sugar in a small bowl. Then, they can roll the cookie dough balls in the cinnamon-sugar before placing them on the pan. These cookies are full of homemade goodness and basic ingredients like butter, flour, brown sugar and eggs, so you most likely already have all of the ingredients at home.
When the cookies are fully baked, let them cool on a wire rack. Meanwhile, you can whip up the coconut cream cheese frosting. (An electric mixer makes this easy.) If you don't like coconut, feel free to omit it. When the frosting is ready, scoop it into a small plastic bag, snip off a small part of the corner, and you have an easy way to pipe the frosting on the cookies. Or, just let the kids try their hand at spreading it with a spoon.
Voila! You have an easy, awesomely elegant treat that would be a special addition to any get-together or holiday table.
Want to share your own KRAFT holiday recipe on social media? We would love to see your festive savory dishes, desserts, side dishes and more. Include the hashtag #KraftYourHoliday, and let's see which delicious creations you come up with! If you're looking for more cookie inspiration, check out these cookie swap ideas.

- Carolsays
- 4 years ago
- Wedding: June 2013
Sorry, nothing to do with weddings, but I thought I might get some help.
I am trying to avoid the news because I find it so disturbing. The murder of the American journalists, as well as the killing of others by ISIS. But going through the grocery line, a couple of times I caught a glimpse of a rather graphic image in the tabloid newspaper (pertaining to the two journalists). I look away, but I can't get it out of mind. Really disturbed by these horrific killings.
Feel kind of vulnerable admitting to such strong emotion, so I hope I don't get attacked, and I hope this does not turn into a political debate.
Anyone have any advice as to how to deal with these emotions? I can't do much about what is happening. Just try to make my own small corner of the world brighter, I suppose. Perhaps a random act of kindness to try to counter this cruelty?
Posting this in Christian, but anyone is welcome to respond.

I guess we haven't reached the too-common-to-tout tipping point on the "PASSENGER WITH A GUN!" media meme. Truth be told, the TSA's blue goons intercept hundreds of forgotten firearms, TASERS, knives, toenail clippers, family-sized shampoo bottles and other dangerous weapons from airline passengers every week. The fact that "Airport screeners confiscated yesterday a suspicious device that looked like a cell phone but was actually an elaborately disguised stun gun" is only interesting in that some people don't know such a James Bondian device exists. As nj.com reports, "Yesterday's seizure followed a busy holiday weekend for screeners at the region's three major airports, where Farbstein said the TSA confiscated a varied array of weapons, including throwing knives, a hand gun, more stun guns, a machete, and a cane containing a concealed knife. The weekend incidents resulted in a total of five arrests." Poor stupid bastards.
OMG! A Stun Gun Cell Phone! At an Airport! OMG!
The only thing stunning about my cell phone is the bill.
The stun gun couldn't have been that elaborately disguised. The Thousands Standing Around were able to catch it, after all.
So THAT'S what people are doing with their extra Obamaphones… Making them into stunguns! Geez, all this time I've been using mine as doorstops and as targets at the range. Silly me.
The last time I flew out of EWR I was "selected" for some special attention from TSA.
In retrospect, it might have been because I wore a 'leg-safe' containing some cash and credit cards for emergency use, which may have turned up on the X-ray.
They didn't ask about that, but did the "backhand frisk" and took swabs of my hands. I suppose they were looking for nitrate residue, and for once I was glad I hadn't been to the range for a while.
What seems strange is go through all that silly crap when my "government issued picture ID" is my retired military ID card, which says more for my good character than the questionable screening of TSA agents.
All in the name of political correctness and "security". We can't have people offended by profiling.
Farbstein? That has to be an alias.
Meanwhile somebody walked right through with a battle axe and drug smugglers don't even bother with airports anymore.
Read a T. Jefferson Parker novel a while back that involved a hooker who had a combination butane cigarette lighter with a Mace spray on the other. Not sure if such a thing actually exists (Parker is pretty good when it comes to weapons) but it would probably make it though a metal detector.

Oil fell on Thursday after Iran's release of 15 British sailors and marines eased worries over crude shipments from the world's fourth-largest exporter.
U.S. crude for May delivery fell 10 cents to settle at $64.28 a barrel.
U.S. crude had jumped above $68 last week as some investors took the view that the standoff over Iran's detention of the Britons increased the risk of a disruption to oil shipments.
"There is a little bit of selling coming in. People feel a little bit happier about the continuity of oil supplies," said Rob Laughlin, a broker at Man Financial in London.
A big drop in U.S. gasoline inventories ahead of peak summer demand in the world's top consumer, reported by the U.S. government on Wednesday, gave prices some support.
The market briefly rallied on a report that a bomb attack had disrupted supplies from southern Iraq. Prices eased after an Iraqi oil ministry spokesman said there was no impact on
Iran's capture of 15 British military personnel had pushed U.S. crude to a six-month high of $68.09 last week and prices are still around $3 higher than before the Britons were seized on March 23.
The OPEC nation exports about 2.5 million barrels per day of oil and sits on the Strait of Hormuz, a shipping route for some two-fifths of globally traded oil.
U.S. gasoline supplies remained supportive for the market. Stockpiles fell by 5 million barrels, data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration showed on Wednesday.
"The gasoline situation tightened considerably and that limited the downside. Stocks are extremely tight," said Gerard Burg, an analyst from National Australia Bank.
The decline included a drop of 2 million to 3 million barrels from the previous week, but still alarmed traders in the run-up to the peak summer driving season.
Gasoline stocks have fallen to the lower half of the historical range, partly as a result of refinery outages, which help to explain high levels of U.S. unrefined crude.
Crude oil inventories rose by 4.3 million barrels, much more than expected.

Floating barges near Treasure Island has people wondering.
A patent filed by Google in 2007, suggest they might be water-based data centers.
The barges, each carrying a large, modular looking structure about 40 feet wide and 70 to 80 feet long, have been moved into and docked in harbors in San Francisco and Portland, Maine.
Speculation has been fueled by how hard everyone around the projects is working.
A Portland Coast Guard station spokesman, said
"We know it's not a threat to public safety here in Portland.
The barge docked in San Francisco, is registered as BAL 0010, and the barge in Portland is registered as BAL 0011. More likely these will be moved around to provide localized support or backup as needed ,you can use water for cooling and there are a number of creative ways to get energy,
said Rob Enderle, an analyst at Enderle Group.
Multiple requests for information on the barges have gone un-answered by Google.
The construction company working on the barge in Maine and the Portland Harbormaster are tight lipped about the barges as well.
The barge in San Francisco would be one of a dozen data centers worldwide.
An independent marine engineer, says Google wants to build a backup data center in the event of a natural disaster.

Here's a "photo story" based on the book,
Fairy Tales Can Come True (Just Not Every Day!),
published by Shake It! Books.
You'll have a few giggles... and learn a few things as well!
Falling in love is
the easy part.
It's staying that way that takes some work.
So instead of saying...
"This relationship stuff. It gives me
a headache just to think about it."
Try to change your attitude a bit.
"Okay, I'm taking notes!"
Make a list.
When you find yourself feeling critical
of your beloved, sit down and make a list of
"All The Things I Still Love About My Mate."
This will remind you of why you first fell in love.
"Hmmm... Something I love about him?"
Pretty soon, you'll find yourself thinking...
"Say, he's not so bad after all!"
making that list goes for both of you
to help you both remember the good.
"That's what we do.
And it really works to
remind us of our love."

Turkey's Inflation Rate Drops, but Challenges Await Central Bank
Turkey's annual inflation rate nearly halved in 2012 due to weak domestic demand, a stronger lira and benign domestic food inflation, but still remained above the central bank's 5% target.
The consumer-price index rose 6.2% annually and 0.4% on a month-to-month basis in December, the state statistics agency said Thursday. The annual figure was the lowest since September 2011 and was slightly below expectations. The producer-price index fell 0.1% on a monthly basis in December for an annual gain of 2.5%.
The Turkish lira barely budged against the dollar after the data were published, while the yield on Turkish government bonds edged up to 6.28% from 6.16% Wednesday.

Following the devastating wrath of Hurricane Sandy, hundreds of thousands were left without basic services like power, heat and running water. And even though the New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) didn't respond to complaints and pleas for help for an entire week, and many public housing residents remain without basic services, residents are still expected to pay rent.
Finally, on November 19, three weeks after the storm, the NYCHA held a hearing on the matter in Red Hook. Angry residents asked the board about the lack of a swift response, and dozens of others left the hearing, instead opting to attend a community assembly organized by participants of Occupy Red Hook and Occupy Sandy down the street.
Occupy protesters documented some of the comments made by residents at that hearing:
"How are we supposed to buy food and Christmas presents?" said one neighbor, "We need a rent credit for now, not January 1st."
"No services, no rent," another affirmed.
"When Obama won, I didn't hear any jubilation–because the projects were dark," noted another.
Red Hook West NYCHA Residents Speak Out at "Community Power Meeting":
Around fifty Red Hook residents reached a consensus, putting out a call for NYCHA residents from Red Hook and across the city to gather at NYCHA's front doors and demand cancellation of two months' rent. The residents put out a call for all New Yorkers to come join them this morning at NYCHA's headquarters to accomplish the following goals:
1. Immediate demand: Cancel 2 months' rent for both November and December (speed up and extend NYCHA's promised rent credit for January).
2. From a list of Long-term demands: Hold moratorium on evictions. Increase and ensure sufficient federal disaster relief funding to NYCHA. Replace NYCHA board with a community-led board. Employ NYCHA residents for intensive building repairs instead of outsourcing jobs. Implement long-term alternative power and weather-prepared solutions. Enact general accountability and transparency to residents.
3. Next step: pressure NYCHA board meeting on December 5, 10 am, same location.
Occupy Wall Street advertised the protest on its website, and added that NYCHA has been deeply defunded under Governor Cuomo's tenure.
"Occupy Sandy and its many partners on the ground have filled the void through mutual aid, but we are not a band-aid movement and we are not here as a proxy for the State. This is the first instance of self-organization in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy that is calling out one of the roots of the problem—austerity measures and the defunding of public institutions. The foundations of the so-called "austerity crisis" are in the bank vaults lining Wall Street. The root cause of the rising sea levels that led to Hurricane Sandy, can be found in Wall Street's bankrolling of fossil fuel companies and climate change," the group states.

Avid photographer since age six when I received my first camera from my father. I am very creative, artistic, with a keen sense for colour and with an active imagination. For me photography is not a hobby, but a part of who I am, a way of life. Strangers and friends, all who have seen my images, called me an exceptional photographer... however, I just usually tell them it was a just a lucky shot.
A great deal of enjoyment can be derived from photography. I hope you enjoy the images and that inspires you to pick up your camera and just start shooting!

Ahsley Madison has lots of members over 27 million worldwide and growing vastly. A profile can be created in minutes. Not being a married man I'm no expert on these things but I would imagine that having an Affair can be impulsive things initially. I can see how many users could create a profile rather quickly, just to see what's on offer in their locality. Due to the sensitive nature of the website, most members choose to have their eyes hidden in their pictures through the sophisticated shading possibility, for obvious reasons. Although joining up is free, don´t expect to land an affair overnight. You contact members for free, but in order to get in to deeper conversation you must purchase an inexpensive credit package, so instead of paying a monthly fees, you choose to pay whenever you feel like it.
The site allows all new members to put in information about height and weight and also which type of relationship you seek. The site finds you partners quite fast, but given the nature of its business, indiscretion is something which people don't apparently want to rush into. They also offer a very interesting "Affair guarantee", should you meet a list of criteria, you can be entitled to a refund. This is a very interesting feature and really shows that Ashley Madison is not afraid to put its money where its mouth is…Visit Ashley Madison
Usability and Safety:
Security wise, the site offers its users all the usual secure HTTPS connections and even goes so far as to enable anonymous picture uploads. Ashley Madison runs off of an interesting credit economy. Users buy credits which are used for things like chatting, contacting members and also offering other members "gifts". As with all casual sites, a higher degree of caution is required when meeting someone from the site. The site is predominantly male users, 60% males and 40% females. A worthy point I would like to make is the fact that they allow you to totally delete your profile and all information, including the messages you've sent to other members from their inboxes and history for a very small fee.

Keynote: Living, Praying, and Believing Eucharistically/
Presented by: Tony Alonso
Tuesday, June 13, 2017
9:30 am - 10:30 am
For many decades, we have expanded our understanding of the relationship between liturgybelief, and daily living. But in separating these categories out for reflection, we often create stark divisions between them that miss their porousness in the practice of everyday life. This keynote will explore the fluid relationship between liturgy, belief, and daily living, rooting us in a theology that sees all of life as holy and points us toward what it means to live eucharistically.
About Tony Alonso:
Tony Alonso is a composer and theologian whose work responds to the diverse needs of the contemporary church. A Cuban-American Roman Catholic, his compositions embrace multicultural musical expressions and reflect a commitment to strong ritual song. Tony's music appears in compilations and hymnals across Christian denominations throughout the world. In 2015, this work was recognized with an invitation to compose the responsorial psalm for the first Mass Pope Francis celebrated in the United States.
Tony's scholarly work lies at the intersection of liturgical theology, sacramental theology, ecclesiology and cultural studies. He has presented at scholarly and pastoral conferences and events across North America and Europe. He has also authored several books and articles on liturgy and liturgical music. Tony holds a Bachelor of Music in choral conducting from Northwestern University and a Master of Arts in theology from Loyola Marymount University. He is currently a doctoral candidate in the Graduate Division of Religion at Emory University.
