Man-made Global Warming Does Not Exist
The truth is emerging – there is not a scrap of evidence that man-made carbon dioxide causes global warming. The IPCC has been devious and incompetent. Australia should boycott all further meetings and withhold future funding. The most recent Ice Age ended about 20,000 years ago, and there was dramatic natural global warming – ice sheets melted, sea levels rose and the warming seas expelled carbon dioxide. All of these beneficial events encouraged the spread of grasslands, forests and animal and human populations over lands once covered by barren sheets of ice. None of these dramatic changes were caused by emissions from the camp fires of the Cave Men.

A while back my friend introduced me to the concept of signing for babies. Skeptical at first, I looked into it. While still not a hundred percent convinced (and the bun is too young to do it anyway), I've been making some simple signs for him just for fun. "Cat" is popular, since we are always shooing "the cat" from one mischievous and annoying act to the next. At first my husband was reluctant to buy into this signing business, but now he seems to have warmed to it. In fact, he's created two signs of his very own.
For the right boob, the sign is: "Come an' Getit!" (or hand ringing a dinner bell) accompanying his verbal "DING-DING-DING-DING-DING-DING-DING!"
The left boob is a little more complex and possibly more abstract: "The Honking of the Jalopy Horn" sign accompanies his lively and bumptious "Ga-DoooOOO-ga!!!!" and now every time he hands the bun to me for a little afternoon nosh, it's embellished with a sign for one or the other of my "Boobs of Shame."
One of these days soon, the bun will look at me with stars in his eyes and honk a jalopy horn, and I'll know that he's ready for Lefty to make an appearance. Or he'll raise his tiny fist and cycle it around the invisible dinner triangle a few times to express his desire for deee-licious Righty.
It's not easy being me.

Supplies & Accessories
Collaborative experience occurs through group interaction and the exploration of different perspectives of other students and teachers. The role of the teacher is to become a facilitator rather than a professor.
Collaborative tools help unite students in a shared knowledge discovery and discovery exercise, and helps develop the skills and teamwork that students will face in their professional lives.
Although the Internet makes it possible to exchange services and information, it is not necessarily reliable. Tools such as identity management and access are designed to ensure reliability for those who access resources (data centers, databases, remote instruments, learning resources, etc.).
The ability to share resources beyond the limitations of the physical campus depends on the management of trust, identity and access.

An Indonesian maid kicked the thigh of her employers' 23-month- old daughter for refusing to finish her food, and slapped the back of their baby boy when he started crying while feeding him.
This was captured on closed-circuit TV, which her employer installed at home after the 29-year- old noticed scratch marks on his daughter's arms last May, after the maid started working for the family.
Yesterday, Khaerun Nisa Selfitriya, 28, was sentenced to four months in jail for ill-treating the children in a flat in Woodlands on Oct 14 last year.
A district court heard that on that day, Khaerun Nisa was feeding the children when the girl refused to finish her food. When she told the girl to finish her food, the toddler vomited and started to cry.
Khaerun Nisa then kicked her on the left thigh forcefully, causing her to fall and hit her head.
Further investigation showed that about 10 minutes earlier, she was feeding the eight-month-old baby when he started crying. She shouted "No!'' and slapped his back several times.
Both incidents were captured on CCTV. The children's father lodged a police report the next day.
When questioned about her relationship with her employers, Khaerun Nisa told the police that she had been treated well, and was even taken to China for a holiday.
But her lawyer, Mr Nasser Ismail, said the maid, who has four daughters aged three to 11, was derided by her employers for no reason and became paranoid and depressed.
He said she was "depressed, scared and confused'' at the time of the offence and missed her children, especially the three-year-old, as she had not had any news from them since she started work.
"The accused admitted that she had reached a breaking point when she lost her mind on that fateful day,'' he said.
Mr Nasser further told the court his client had never intended to harm the children and had not harmed them.
He said that the baby boy was choking on his food, so she used her left hand to "slap'' him on the back a few times.
Khaerun Nisa, whose sentence was backdated to Oct 16, could have been fined up to $4,000 and jailed for up to four years on each charge.
The children's father, who has hired a new maid for the family, told The Straits Times yesterday: "Of course, I want justice to be served, but I don't want to dwell on her sentence. It doesn't matter how long she is sentenced for. As long as my kids are fine, that is all that matters.
"I will let go of this case and move on. My kids are also much better emotionally. They are not traumatised and they are very happy now."

After a snowstorm most of us are concerned about shoveling our walks and driveways.
The Fire Department has an additional concern - clearing snow from hydrants!
So how do those hydrants get cleared? By our Firefighters of course!
After a heavy snow out people will spend time scouting and clearing hydrants.
Why do we do this?
We don't want to have to do this during a fire response when seconds count. Thus our Firefighters - career and volunteer - spend time clearing hydrants of snow as a preventative measure after heavy snowstorms.

This was the fourth Ealing Half Marathon, and my fourth Ealing Half marathon. I used to work in Ealing so it's become a tradition for me to enter, but also because it's a really well organised, friendly race, with fantastic local support. And the sun always shines, despite it being held in late September. It's the UK's best half marathon for good reason.
My previous results
2012: 1.48:30 - PB (Mood: grumpy)
2013: 1.40:09 - PB (Mood: delighted)
2014: 2.03:15 - pacing a friend (Mood: happy)
This year I was using the race as a test to see how my calf injury was progressing and whether the Kingston marathon in two weeks was even possible. Having not run more than 13 miles since my DNF at the Thames Path 100 in May, I wasn't sure how a half marathon would feel. I knew I had some speed but did I still have any stamina?
My plan was to start with the 1.40 pacers and see how it felt. The trick was to test myself without pushing it so hard I got injured again. The weather was sunny, slightly cool at the start and dry. And apart from tripping up the stairs and smacking my head against the wall on Friday evening, I was in good shape.
Here are some of thoughts on the way round.
Mile 1 (7:59)
Hanging with the pacers. This is nice and comfortable. I can do this.
Mile 2 (7:51)
Why is there a water station so early on? Madness!
Mile 3 (7:39)
Where is the next water station? I'm parched!
Mile 4 (7:19)
Ah, I remember this downhill section. Can it all be downhill please?
Mile 5 (7:37)
Apparently not.
Mile 6 (7:41)
Kids love a high five don't they? Well, a low five. Why is that man still in his pyjamas?
Mile 7 (7:28)
Hmm. The pacers are getting away but only by 10 or 15 seconds. I can still do this.
Mile 8 (7:51)
I really should have done some hills in training. Maybe I can't do this.
Mile 9 (7:34)
Pacers are 30 seconds ahead now. No more big hills left though. Come on legs!
Mile 10 (7:45)
Focus on form, forget the pain, glory awaits.
Mile 11 (7:37)
Just a parkrun to go. I can do a parkrun!
Mile 12 (7:28)
Where is the mile 12 marker?!
Mile 13 (7:35)
There are the pacers! Sprint* finish!
* ungainly stagger
Finish (1.39:53)
Absolutely spent, absolutely delighted.
One of the things I've learnt by running ultras is that your body is capable of far more than your mind realises. I hadn't trained specifically to run a fast (for me) half marathon, and I definitely felt fitter in 2013. I got this PB by ignoring my body and telling myself repeatedly that I could do it and I would do it. It would have been incredibly easy to give up on my target - I had plenty of ready-made excuses - but as the saying goes, "Of course it hurts. The trick is not minding that it hurts."
So not a perfect race but a pleasing one. My calf didn't bother me which gives me hope for Kingston marathon in two weeks. Now I just have to run twice as far and not much slower for another PB...

Stem cells provide super promise for advancing well-being and medication. even if getting used to exchange broken cells and organs otherwise via assisting the body's intrinsic fix mechanisms, stem cells carry the aptitude to regard such debilitating stipulations as Parkinson's sickness, diabetes, and spinal twine damage. medical trials of stem mobile remedies are lower than means in international locations worldwide, however the proof base to help the clinical use of stem cells is still constrained. regardless of this paucity of medical facts, purchaser call for for remedies utilizing stem cells has risen, pushed partially by way of an absence of obtainable treatments for debilitating illnesses in addition to direct-to-consumer ads and public portrayals of stem cell-based remedies.

From one minute to the next, you and your family could be faced with a tragedy instead of a fun Christmas day and week.
Home invasions are more prevalent around the holidays and we are here to remind you to stay vigilant and prepared to prevent a home invasion from happening. If an intruder does happen to invade your home, we want you to know what to do!
Here is a scenario that might sound familiar to you.
A home invasion is an illegal and usually forceful entry to an occupied, private dwelling with intent to commit a violent crime against the occupants, such as robbery, assault, rape, murder, or kidnapping
We hope your holidays are happy and bright, merry and fun and that a home invasion is not something you have to deal with.
We recommend going over a family emergency plan with your kids and spouse yearly and discuss fires, home invasions, burglaries, floods and other disasters with your family.
A prepared family has a much greater chance of survival!
From our family to yours this holiday season…
How is that for a bold statement?
It's true!
"If I saw a sticker for a home security system, that would have been enough of a deterrent recalls London. "Once, we broke into a house and an alarm went off. We immediately turned around and just ran." Stickers for a home security system are one trick; another is a trusty BEWARE OF DOGS posting. "Dogs certainly would have discouraged me from breaking in, even though I knew my way around dogs," points out London. If you happen to love dogs and can afford a home surveillance system, by all means go for it! But if you're allergic or cash is tight, fake it with signs. Dummy surveillance cameras enhance the illusion and are not difficult to put up.
Read the full interview with this former burglar here.
There are several ways you can show anyone 'casing' your home that you have a dog!
This is an easy one and of course you do not not have to own a dog to put up a sig like that!
Most dogs will 'alert' to anyone coming on their property uninvited. Leaving your dog at home during the day – when most break-ins happen – should deter any potential burglar. If you do not have a dog, you could invest in a sound machine that replicates the sound of dogs barking to go off when someone triggers the device by stepping too close to your home when you aren't around. That should also make someone think twice about breaking in!
Nothing quite screams 'a dog lives here' like a few random dog chew toys scattered in your front and back yard!
A fenced back yard with dog chew toys, and a water bowl certainly will deter a burglar. The same goes for a dog lead in the back or front yard with a water bowl nearby!
Why is this? Dogs are 'complications, distractions and hazards'.
The goal of any burglar is to enter a home undetected and to get out with their 'prize' as quickly and as quietly as possible!
Dogs foil those plans…
Confessions and secrets from a real burglar
"The two things I hate most: Loud dogs and nosy neighbors."
We aren't telling you to get a dog.
Pretending there's a dog in the home should deter a burglar as well.
However, if you've been thinking about getting a dog, check out these cute videos of dogs caught on (security) cameras while their owners were at work!
Your dog could be the next internet star…;)
We hear this question all the time. "Do I really need security cameras?" and "Is having my security alarm system not enough on its own?" The answer might surprise you. Having a security system is a huge deterrent to would-be thieves so yes, in theory, it's all you'll need. However, and of course there's a however, security cameras add additional value to your system and once you understand what that value is, we guarantee you'll want them!
A security system linked to a monitoring station gives you the following value
» Signs of installed system deters would-be thieves
» Sound of active system deters would-be thieves
» Almost instant notification of authorities when needed
» Peace of mind knowing help is on the way
» Your home and/or business is protected and monitored even when you aren't there
I should go without saying that your security is only as safe and your system only as good as the company you are working with. If you are new to security systems, read this article on how to find a good security company to work with and the signs to look for when you interact with different companies to see if it's a good fit.
By installing security cameras along with your system, they can add this value to your existing system. Here are 5 reasons why security cameras rock and once you have them, we know you'll never want to live without ever again!
» Help determine false alarms
» Record video stream of what's happening outside of your home to catch would-be thieves
» Aid Law Enforcement with identifying and arresting a suspect if a break-in did happen
» Live stream video of your pet (or petsitter) while you aren't home
» Live stream video of your kids and babysitter to ensure their safety and monitor behavior
It goes without saying that adding security cameras to your business provides another whole level of security!
Security cameras at your place of business can help you monitor
• cash registers
• employee behavior
• customer behavior
• merchandise
• stockroom
• staff lunch room
• parking lots
and much much more, leaving you with either live streaming and recordings, or recordings of each feed.
In the end, security cameras will most likely pay for themselves and save you money by identifying thieves, problem areas and prevent loss.
Talk to us at Strand Security if you are in need of security cameras in the Myrtle beach or Maryland areas!
An emergency is just that; 'an unexpected and usually dangerous situation that calls for immediate action.'
Planning for emergencies is not an easy thing to do, since, well… they happen when you least expect it! However, having a PLAN does help you 'take control' of the unexpected, as far as that's possible.
With kids going back to school this month, we thought it would be a good idea to review some family emergency plans. Just like your kids will be exposed to fire drills, earthquake drills, tornado drills, bomb drills or, at least here in South Carolina we do them; hurricane drills, at their schools. You should be planning for a home emergency as well by doing these types of drills with a written out plan, at your home!
On the website 'disastercenter.com' we learn that
We then went to the Red Cross site and according to the Red Cross, creating a family emergency plan is "important to make sure that the entire family is prepared and informed in the event of a disaster or emergency. You may not always be together when these events take place and should have plans for making sure you are able to contact and find one another."
To read the full Red Cross article, click here.
FEMA also has some valuable information. They have created two downloadable family communication plans as PDFs, one for parents and one for kids.
Family Communication Plan for Kids
Family Communication Plan for Parents
These would be a great starting point for any family who doesn't have a family emergency plan yet!
To round out this article, here are four things to keep in mind and take care of today!
If you do all of these, you can rest just a bit easier when disaster strikes!
We received a beautiful email from a Girl Scout Troop. The girls in the troop are currently working on their first aid badges and we they have been talking about emergency preparedness. Our article provided a ton of info for the girls. In their research, they found another helpful resource. Today, we are happy to share it with you, too.
Check out this article by BePrepared.com
Get ready! You can never be too prepared!
You might have already seen one or two of these YouTube videos we're about to show you! Dogs do the darnest things! These lovely pets, or should we say sometimes 'naughty' pets were caught on video by their curious owners. We're also going to show you how sad one of the dogs is when her owner leaves. You can, of course, set up a camera and let it run while you are away to find out once you're home and have downloaded the footage what your dog was up to. Did you know there's a better way? At Strand Security, we offer the latest in technology and that includes Honeywell Total Connect™ for customers who want to know what's going on with their pet, in real time!
Have you seen these funny videos? We love them!
Here is the first video. It shows a Beagle home alone! Turns out, this is a super smart dog.
In the second video, you'll find a dog taking a dip in the family pool by using the water slide!
Now here's the sad dog!
If you have a dog (or a teen – hey, why not?) and if you want instant access to live video of your home via your Smartphone or tablet, we highly recommend you come talk to us, Strand Security Systems in Myrtle Beach, about HoneyWell Total Connect™. We can give you a demonstration in our showroom, or you can watch this video demonstration right now which shows you numerous other ways Honeywell Total Connect™ can enhance your lifestyle!

As my generation of gamers, and those who came before us, pass into our thirties, forties and beyond as the so-called "next gen" continues to disappoint, we yearn for the simpler, less extreme gaming experiences like the ones we grew up with. Games don't need "cutting-edge" graphics and eleventy thousand hours of gameplay and "replay value" to be fun. These days there's rarely a new release from a major publisher that truly excites me. Like Hollywood, the major players in the gaming industry seem to be suffering from remakeaholism and sequelitis.
Thankfully, there's a ton of cool things happening in the retro gaming scene lately: Nintendo's 8bit Summer promotion that starts next month, KickStarter's recent revival of classic point-and-click adventures and other retro games, and the recent trend of brand new games with old school aesthetics like Wizorb, Oniken and Retro City Rampage.
And then, perhaps most interestingly, there's the retro gaming revival happening in the homebrew scene of your favorite old platforms like Atari 2600, NES and Commodore 64, among others. Indie developers making new games for old consoles gives you a reason to hang on to those old pieces of plastic (or in some cases wood and metal).
Here's a sampling of some of the more rad-looking new or upcoming "faux-stalgic" games I've seen that I'd really like to get my thumbs on:
Fairy Well
Platform: Commodore 64
Developer: Wide Pixel Games
Fairy Well is a unique and ambitious flick-screen collect-em-up arcade adventure of epic proportions squeezed into a tiny 16KB of ROM space. It was the winning entry of RGCD's 2011 C64 cartridge game development contest. Guide your fairy through the labyrinthine underworld on your quest to rescue the captured princess and restore peace to the forest!
Nightmare Busters
Platform: Super Nintendo
Developer: Super Fighter Team
An upcoming run and gun game for the Super Nintendo, Super Famicom and all compatible video game systems, Nightmare Busters will be the first new game to be released for these machines in the United States since 1998!

yeah but it costs $1,200 less than the Prius
TCC: 2010 Honda Insight Sales Off To A Sluggish Start?
toyoguy replied to NewsFeeder's topic in Honda AutomobilesInsight EX $21,300 is equivalent in terms of features. If Honda wanted to build a stripped Civic Hybrid and lower the price they are more than capable of it.
TCC: 2010 Honda Insight Sales Off To A Sluggish Start?
toyoguy replied to NewsFeeder's topic in Honda AutomobilesHonda can say whatever they please, what matters is if anyone bothers buying it and Honda already knows nobody will. Apparently Honda feels the need to sell a hybrid inferior to their own 4 year old Civic for a couple thousand less.
TCC: 2010 Honda Insight Sales Off To A Sluggish Start?
toyoguy replied to NewsFeeder's topic in Honda AutomobilesEPA city/highway/combined mpg Insight 40/43/41 Civic Hybrid 40/45/42 the Honda Civic gets a redesign for the 2011 model year and at least the current model uses rear discs and a rear multi-link suspension. Exactly why Honda even built this vehicle is beyond me.
TCC: 2010 Honda Insight Sales Off To A Sluggish Start?
toyoguy replied to NewsFeeder's topic in Honda Automobilesthe Honda Insight uses drum brakes at the rear. I wouldn't be surprised to see it turn into a dud like the old model and the Accord Hybrid. It's beyond me why Honda even built it considering the Civic Hybrid is vastly superior.

GM turns to Volt to revitalize its image
toyoguy replied to Oracle of Delphi's topic in General Motors Newsthis non-scientific study conducted by some British newspaper? http://www.autoblog.com/2009/06/02/report-...s-equal-that-o/ the solar panels power a fan to vent the interior when its parked under the sun. like this modern turbodiesel? http://www.popularmechanics.com/automotive...rs/4284188.html the new midsize Prius weighs 3000lbs and in two to four years will switch over to a lighter lithium-ion battery pack. There are other technologies like direct injection and Valvematic that can significantly increase efficiency for the gasoline motor. The hybrids are only going to get far more efficient while diesels will be fighting emission regulations the EPA and CARB will begin passing shortly. Diesel will be a completely dead technology in the US as far as passenger cars are concerned in less than 5 years, significantly less mileage and a higher price, doesn't sound like a winner.
08 ACCORD EX test drive
toyoguy replied to regfootball's topic in Reader Reviewsthen your friend must be deaf since the Accord sets off a clearly audible alarm as soon as the driver's door is opened.
GM turns to Volt to revitalize its image
toyoguy replied to Oracle of Delphi's topic in General Motors NewsI just read that article which is a pretty long read but I didn't see it even mention the Insight. It didn't say the Prius is superior to Volt either, what is indisputable is the Presidential Task Force on the Auto Industry already reported GM is at least one generation behind Toyota on on green powertrains. The Prius does cost less than 2/3's what the Volt is expected to and unlike the Volt it isn't paid for by the American taxpayer along with its $7,500 tax credit. The Prius has a combined EPA rating of 50 mpg which by GM's own estimate means the average Prius commuter doesn't even need a full gallon of gas to get to work. And of course once the Volt passes 40 miles it's sucking gas just like the Prius. Even if the average price of gas is $6.00 the Prius needs $4.80 to cover 40 miles and then the Volt at best is on equal footing with it. The Prius plug-in should be arriving around the same time as the Volt which gives the Prius buyer the option of paying extra for the plug-in or just sticking to the standard model. Exactly what makes the Volt so superior? Looking at GM's own estimates of 10,000 units/year compared to 600,000 units/year for the Prius, the buyer isn't buying it. But then again it doesn't matter since the federal government will spend whatever amount GM asks. What's funny though is how many of the Volt's biggest supporters aren't interested in buying the Volt, it turns out they are really just GM's biggest supporters.
LCD vs. LED
toyoguy replied to Chris_Doane's topic in The Loungemy parents got their Samsung off amazon or newegg, I forget either way much cheaper than Best Buy
or just the American and Japanese markets have imploded while European markets have not yet, but sooner or later they'll collapse as well. Goes to show you what pathetic management can do to a company. GM is a vastly superior company compared to VW and shouldn't ever be behind VW in sales.
except Toyota created Lexus and Scion VW did not create Audi, Lamborghini, Skoda, Seat, Veyron, Bentley, Bugatti or Scania.

The Chicago White Sox have confirmed that the team has reached a 3 year/ $37.5 million deal with first basement Paul Konerko.
The team had already begun searching for a replacement as they were very near losing Konerko to the Arizona Diamondbacks. Arizona had offered the player a 3 year/$30 million deal.
In the end, he chose to stay with the team he has played for since 1999. With ties to both Arizona and the White Sox it was uncertain where Konerko would end up playing.
Konerko is a four time All Star player. He was ranked fifth in the AL MVP voting last year. In 2009 he batted .312 with 39 home runs and 111 RBIs.

My Champion Story
Before ever attending Champion Church, my life was in a quick downward spiral. So I'll start from the beginning... I was sexually abused over years, starting from the VERY young age of only three. I never even told ANYONE about the abuse until I was in my early twenties. I was a teen mom (times three) & a high school drop out. I eventually ended up addicted to meth. Started in my early twenties & we'll just say it lasted several years. We had attended several churches during my addiction & I had reached out to the pastors at each church. They would do their best to get through to me but there wasn't anything anyone could say that seemed to even remotely help!
My sister invited me to go with her to Champion because she wanted to check it out & didn't want to go alone, lol! At the time we were homeless, due to my addiction. That week, Johnee (my husband) dropped me off on a corner & told me to get out. He said he just couldn't do it anymore. I cried, walked back to my sister's house & had no doubt I would soon be divorced.
I stopped using that day, although it wouldn't be the first time for me to say it was the last time. I wanted to stop but simply didn't know how!? Meth was my number one priority, day and night! It turned me into something I am embarrassed to even remember, much less talk about. I had NO relationship with my boys, husband, sister, mom or any family member.
Sunday came & we all went to Champion Church for our first time... Both Johnee & I with the boys and my sister. I was on my 3rd day clean... Anyone who knows anything about meth addiction, knows the 3rd day is THE HARDEST! From the moment we walked in the front door, I LOVED it!! I loved the worship music, the ushers, the members, everything!! And after I heard Pastor Steve's LIFE GIVING message, I knew I was HOME! Tears streamed down my face from the moment worship started, throughout the whole service! Afterwards, the kids LOVED it as well & couldn't wait to go again the following Sunday! It was the first time they had actually been excited about church, lol!
It was during the month of October & Pumpkin Patch was just getting started! All of us signed up to volunteer in different areas & did the same with Jesus Is Born! Being involved & being a part of something bigger, with a purpose, completely changed my way of thinking! With each life giving message that I would hear every Sunday, it made me want to be the person that my husband, sister, mom & kids had all been struggling so hard to reach inside of me... The woman that they used to know. In October 2014, I am proud to say that I will have been clean for 8 years!!
I thank my Champion family for letting me in & accepting that lost person that I was! For loving that person in order for the real me to come back to life!! I can honestly & whole heartedly say that I don't know where I would be today if it weren't for Champion! Or if I'd even be here at all!! Today I am an Assistant Business Office Manager at a skilled nursing facility, I am pursuing a degree in healthcare management, my husband, my boys, my mom & my sister are all my best friends! I would do anything for them! Having a good relationship with all of my family is the most important thing to me!
Some may not agree with me making this public or posting on FB but people seem to always judge others when they have no idea what they have been through! By no means am I perfect or a saint, but it has taken a lot to overcome many obstacles in order for me to be who & where I am today! And considering I was abused from such a young age, a high school drop out, a teen mom times 3 & a meth addict, I should be dead in an alley somewhere!! So today, I thank God for just simple lil ol me!! :)

Breadcrumb #487
Sam thought about spadefoot toads. They were a dream so real he could hold them in his fist. His parents had gone out to see them when they'd first come to the apartment. They'd trekked into the woods and found the crater that filled with water one night a year every April. On that night, they'd stood at the water's edge, watched the spadefoots climb up from their ground homes, and deposit eggs in the pool. It was a beautiful thing, his mother told him, the promise of life passed from parents to their young.
His parents planned to take him one day to see the spadefoots, but that promise was given before his father left on assignment.
In the meantime, he amused himself as best he could. He squeezed his toes together and pretended they were the shovel-like toad feet and dug up pennies and fluff from beneath the sofa cushions. Often, he croaked. Sam was that type of kid who felt moved to croak -- in his bedroom, at the laundromat, and in his school. Kids called him names and his teachers shook their head at him, but he didn't care.
His mother didn't mind the noise. She built him a forest out leaves that she taped to his bedroom walls. On winter nights, she strummed woodland melodies on her ukulele. She encouraged Sam to supply the lyrics, and they'd dance around the room.
When Sam was nine, his mother told him that Cheyenne and Troy were moving into the basement apartment. Sam was not impressed by this development. Cheyenne, a nurse his mother worked with at the hospital, phoned his mother at inconvenient times to complain about her ex-husband. Troy, her son, wasn't any better. He belonged to a crew who called him retard. They were the reason Sam stayed inside at recess and read nature books.
"Help Troy feel welcome here," his mother said.
"He's very loud," Sam said.
"Okay, frog man."
"It's toad man," he corrected. "Get it right."
His mother clasped a hand over her heart in mock embarrassment. "How could I get that wrong? What is my penance?"
Sam deliberated for a moment. "Five gummy worms."
Two weeks later, Sam went outside to count fireflies. Troy was whacking tennis balls at rabbits.
"Wusses," Troy said.
"They aren't," Sam said. "Rabbits are tough."
Troy shrugged.
"They kill their babies," Sam said.
"The dads do," Sam explained. "They get jealous of the babies. The mom rabbits give them too much love."
"What dicks," Troy said.
Dicks was a dirty word. It's what Sam's uncle called his father.
"My father is a dick," Troy said.
Sam handed him a stray tennis ball. They were teammates without a coach.
On nights when his mother worked late, Sam filled the indoor forest with a tribe of new friends. Troy, Aunt Cheyenne, and a few kids from the neighborhood ate pizza and watched the weather report. It was April and the first downpour was around the corner. On the night of the first rainstorm, the spadefoot toads emerged. This year, Sam, his mother and the other boys would find them.
On the night of the rain, Sam's mother had to work late, but told him he could go as long as he stayed with the other boys. They were a band of wellie clad explorers, and the spadefoots were calling them to join them at the enchanted pool.
As they traveled deeper into the woods, the apartment building vanished from view. The only light came from their flashlights, and the soundtrack was the throaty tune of the spadefoots. They were close. Sam felt it.
"What are you doing?" Troy asked. "Stop dancing."
Sam hadn't realized he had been dancing, but he couldn't stop. He was happy, and it was okay to dance. His mother and father danced on the night they'd seen the spadefoots.
"It's fine," Sam said. "My father---
"He's crazy," Billy Stoner said.
Troy's lips twitched into a smile. "Just retarded."
Sam flushed. The music inside him died. It had been months since they'd called him a retard. Retarded was too much homework, deflated soccer balls, when his father failed to call.
Sam grabbed a rock and tossed it at Troy's chest.
War descended upon the woods. Troy hurled a rock in his direction, and then they launched themselves at each other. Sam fought for the woods and the spadefoots. He kicked, punched, and scratched his way through the wall of belligerent boys, and when he broke free, he ran after the music.
The woods seemed darker with every step. The others were ghosts of a past world. The music was his future, a fragile one. This future was pulling in different directions. The music was everywhere and nowhere. He strained his ears for the throaty melody, but it eluded him. He turned right, then left. He was back at the sight of the brawl, but the boys were gone. They were walking back to the house, or they'd never really come. Either way, he'd promised to stay with them, but he couldn't go back. The spadefoots had been counting on him and they were boys that ruined the night.
Sam sat down on a stump and waited for her to find him.
She arrived after the rain, but face was streaked with black rivers and her smile was missing.
"Troy?" he asked.
"Is fine."
Sam nodded. He'd fought with the group and left them.
"I'm sorry," She said.
She didn't answer. "Climb on my back."
He wrapped his arms around her neck and allowed her to carry him through the woods. He imagined he was a robin with a broken wing and she was returning him to their nest.
"You know," she said. "Everything's going to be okay,"
Sam nodded. He could see the square top of their apartment building and beyond it, the moon with craters deep enough to shelter a dozen spadefoot toads.

Changes include color matching belly pan and screen, red radiator cover and red pin-stripped wheels.
Color options include a Matt crystal white and a phantom black, two gorgeous colors that certainly will attract a lot of attention on the road.
Included as standard is ABS as well as Brembo Brakes and Öhlins suspension.
The Speed triple R is an extremely exciting naked bike to ride and competition includes the MV Brutale, Kawasaki Z1000, KTM Duke Super Duke and The Ducati Monster 1100.
The build quality of Triumphs is really exceptional of late and I have thoroughly enjoyed every Triumph I have ridden, they are charismatic and very entertaining, especially the Speed and Street triple.

In light of the recent violent murders and beatings of homeless people in Florida, Boston, and other cities, homeless advocates were appalled by a controversial scene in the 20th Century Fox comedy "Date Movie."
According to ScreenIt.com, the scene plays out as follows:
"Yelling 'Bum fight!' Julia (Alyson Hannigan) rushes over to a bum on the street, punches and then repeatedly kicks and hits him (all played as a spoof of lighthearted romantic comedy montages). Grant (Adam Campbell) then joins her, kicking the guy in the crotch before the two rob him."
Advocates like Brian Davis, Executive Director of the Northeast Ohio Coalition for the Homeless, have called for a boycott of the film, saying, "Please do not spend money on this movie. It is disgusting and inappropriate at this time."
Advocates in other cities have staged protests of the film, like Sean Cononie of Florida's Homeless Voice. Cononie also expressed strong reservations about the scene and called for a number of possible remedies.
"It is very sad that, after the beatings and murder right here in Fort Lauderdale just last January, a movie with the same inhumane thoughts would come out on the screen. We are hoping to get the theaters to put in a PSA to be played before the movie, reminding people not to commit these type of crimes against any person of any class... We feel that the motion picture industry should pull that part of the movie where it shows a homeless person being beaten for fun or at least offer a PSA warning teens not to participate in this type of behavior," said Cononie.
The National Coalition for the Homeless has called for a boycott of the film, and many homeless coalitions and homeless advocacy groups nationwide have protested the film or called for a boycott.
According to an article from the Associated Press, advocates in South Portland, Maine from Portland's Preble Street Consumer Advocacy Project carried signs and chanted, "It's a hate movie, not a date movie," while they called for a boycott of the film. The protesters in Maine were unable to meet with the theater manager to express their concerns.
Additionally, inquiries from other media outlets and protesters have all seen their phone calls unreturned from 20th Century Fox and others. The film has been panned by most film critics, and in spite of (or because of) the controversy, the film has currently grossed $44.3M at the Box Office according to rotten tomatoes.com.

Two large credit institutions are fighting over the use of a particular colour because colours have a significant and memorable effect on consumers.
GRP Rainer Lawyers and Tax Advisors in Cologne, Berlin, Bonn, Düsseldorf, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Munich, Stuttgart and London - www.grprainer.com/en conclude: Colours evoke associations in people. This is not simply about the green outdoors, blue skies or yellow sun. It also specifically concerns products that are automatically associated with particular colours. That is why so-called colour marks play a major role in commerce; colours conjure up associations with particular products, producers or service providers in the minds of customers.
This also explains why two financial institutions are fighting over the use of the colour red HKS 13. This was registered as a colour mark at the German Patent Office by one of the two financial institutions as early as 2007, but the other bank also features this red tone in its lettering. There has since been a dispute over the use of this colour, which has even gone on to occupy the European Court of Justice (ECJ) and the German Federal Patent Court. The crux of this issue is whether consumers do in fact predominantly associate the aforementioned colour with a particular financial institution. The outcome of the dispute remains open.
Yet the legal battle also demonstrates the great importance a so-called colour mark can have for a business. In a similar case, the German Federal Court of Justice (Bundesgerichtshof) forbid the defendant from using the registered colour mark in a dispute over a particular shade of yellow (Az.: I ZR 228/12).
Trademarks, including colour marks, create a high recognition value and are therefore of considerable value to businesses. The more well-known a trademark is, the higher its estimated value. For this reason, it is important to have trademarks registered so that third parties do not profit from their success. The territorial scope of a trademark is also significant. It is particularly important for businesses that operate internationally to extend this territorial scope beyond national boundaries. If trademark rights are infringed, claims for damages can be asserted.
However, entering a trademark into the register must to be well prepared and cannot infringe third party rights. Companies concerned can turn to lawyers who are competent in the field of trademark law for support.

On Thursday, April 25 Everest Academy hosted the Annual Catechism Contest Finals. It is Everest's hope that the contest encourages our students to study and know their faith. In the Prologue to the Catechism of the Catholic Church, it states as the purpose: "This catechism aims at presenting an organic synthesis of the essential and fundamental contents of Catholic doctrine, as regards both faith and morals, in the light of the Second Vatican Council and the whole of the Church's Tradition."
The top three students from the third through eighth grade's in-class competitions had the opportunity to compete in the finals. The first and second graders held their own in-class contest.
Each of the competitions had their own excitement, but the third through fifth grade girls went above and beyond our expectations. The five young ladies went through all of the questions without any eliminations and therefore all five of them were declared champions!

A Langley anti-overdose team is bringing their message to local businesses, hoping to reach workers and employers with a message about risk.
Responding to Overdose in Langley through Education (ROLE) is a project of the Langley Community Overdose Response Committee, headed up by Danile Snyder and Arianna Wingfield.
The duo has created a presentation that can be given to workplaces over lunch hours or breaks.
The reason they're reaching out to workplaces, Snyder said, is simply that most of the people suffering fatal overdoses have been people with jobs and homes.
"The Corner called it the hidden epidemic," Snyder told Black Press.
Many of the people who have suffered a deadly overdose have died because there was no one nearby to call 911 or administer drugs to counteract an overdose of opioids.
Stepping away from the stereotypes of drug addicts is necessary, said Snyder, who battled addiction himself in the past.
"Always held a job, always had a vehicle and a place to call home," he said. He concealed his addiction from most people.
Addicts aren't always homeless and scruffy, and many drug users are recreational, or are abusing pain medications.
"The educational component is primarily to reduce stigma and create awareness," he said.
ROLE wants to warn people, as Metro Vancouver, including Langley, sees a major overdose crisis. Heroin, cocaine, and other illicit drugs are routinely laced with fentanyl, a dangerous and potent opiate that is responsible for the vast majority of fatal overdoses in B.C. in the last two years.
ROLE's presenations include:
● Statistics and background on the overdose crisis
● The impact of the crisis on Langley City and Township
● Stigma awareness on attitudes towards drugs, addiction and overdose
● General information on the toxicity of the drug supply in B.C.
● How to recognize and respond to an overdose
To sweeten the deal, and help gather people in, ROLE offers a catered lunch or snacks for the employees of businesses who host their presentation.
They can speak for between an hour and half an hour, depending on how much time local groups have, said Snyder.
The program runs through Stepping Stone Community Services Society.

Sergeant Pepper Turns 50
For me, as I am sure it does for many others, Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band defines my g-g-g-generation.
Boldness. Freedom. Something completely new, yet mindful of and fully acknowledging its historical antecedents. Stretching the minds of listeners with challenge, inventiveness, awareness of the world we lived in, compassion, skill, and love. And above all: fun. The pure joy of being alive and sharing pleasure, playfulness, and adventure with others.
I clearly remember rushing home from the music store with my copy, putting it on my parents' console stereo system in the living room, and lying on the floor with my head between the speakers listening for the first time. By the time they hit that final chord with all those grand pianos playing at once, I was changed forever.
Giles Martin is probably the only person on the planet who could attempt such an audacious endeavor, but I am so glad he has done so. I, for one, have been eagerly awaiting this new version of the classic album, and now that it's here, I'm soaking it up all over again.

Between Paypal, Stripe, Dwolla, Braintree, Chargify and BitCoin, there's a lot of innovation going on in the payments industry and everyone is trying to do their best to gain merchant acceptance and get market share. Spreedly is a startup focusing on offering solutions to customers on a cloud based credit card vault, with multiple payment gateways and competes for market share with the likes of Chargify and Recurly.
Spreedly was founded by John Carlin in late 2007.They have partnered with over 200 companies such as Wiliam, Insiteful, The Webshowroom, Synapse Worldwide, ITZ Australia and KAPTiV Media among others. Initially they started off as a subscription management service. However in October 2011, Justin Benson joined the team as CEO and moved the business model away from subscriptions to allow for one time transactions. Spreedly got the initial seed funding of $300,000 in December 2012 via AngelList and were able to establish their core product as a secured multiple gateway credit card storage service. On 1st March 2013, Spreedly went live.
Spreedly is a cloud based credit card vault that stores information independent of payment gateways. Clients have access to multiple payment gateways such as Authorize.net, Braintree and Beanstream. Its vaulting data accounts for more than 100,000 credit cards. Spreedly's internal architecture is based on the Ruby on Rail ActiveMerchant which already has built in support for a large number of payment service providers.
According to Justin Benson, CEO of Spreedly, the credit card vault gives the clients independence from a single gateway. The unique factor about their vault is that the card can be presented to different gateways over time. It would cost $50,000 to $100,000 launch a business after building a PCI compliant vault and integrating multiple gateways which is not feasible for most startups. Spreedly's starting plan accommodates 5000 cards working with 5 different merchant accounts at $50 a month. It works with 53 gateways in 71 countries.Pricing Plans Freedom Transaction Scaling Enterprise Card Storage Limit 5000 25000 100000 500000 Each Transaction Costs 4 cents 3 cents 2 cents 2 cents Gateway Tokens 5 25 250 1000 Each Additional Token Costs $10 $3 $2 $1.5
Table: Pricing Plan - Spreedly
The pricing charged by Chargify is mostly targeted to small business users, they have a Small business plan $129/mo which allows you to manage 500 customers and a New Idea plan $65/mo which includes 20 customers.
When discussing the future of Spreedly with regards to the payments industry, Justin Benson stated We see two big trends - peer-to-peer payments and non-credit card payment types. There are some really exciting new ways to make payments and disburse payments. Just as we've aggregated payment gateways into a simple, single API, look to us to try and take that same approach with disbursements or newer payment types. So, a website that specializes in renting high-end vacation homes around the world can today use Spreedly to ensure they can work with any payment gateway in a country that they transact in. Tomorrow they'll be able to use Spreedly to pay out the home renter via PayPal, ACH, Dwolla, GoCardless, Bitcoins or whomever.
LTP View: The simplicity of Spreedly's service may put them on par with other competitors like Chargify and Recurly. Spreedly focuses on offering clients the ability to work with multiple gateways. Spreedly also allows the merchant's to support multiple card payment types like PayPal, Dwolla, GoCardless etc alongside the credit card processing which may prove to be an advantage over others.

- Garden: The veg patch has changed and expanded. Lots of seeds planted, potatoes in pots and in ground, bird cages made, edges made, soil dug... I spend a good hour each evening out there. About to make a Wendy house. It's potential location keeps changing but I think it's now sorted.
- Work: Going well, but with the 'credit crunch' I know we are finding it hard going. I hope the business will survive!
- Future: I think I have begun to be a little unsettled about my future - in the sense of if work doesn't survive the economic crises, where will I go next? It will be a stroke of bad luck to get a second redundancy! But perhaps that is too pessismistic a thinking. I so long to work with something more environmentally based and I know I have been chipping away at things with voluntary work, but it takes soooooooo long! Even building up friendships with people on my wavelength seems almost impossible. How many doors do I have to push? I love my job (well, give or take a few niggles here and there), but I almost sense that there is a calling for me elsewhere that I haven't really tapped in to yet. Listening to the www.wigglywigglers.co.uk podcasts is sooo inspiring! I sometimes feel in totally the wrong place...
- Passion: Life! Having a successful work/family/life balance. A natural, earth based philosophy.
- God and being a Man!: Having just been on a Church weekend away doing the 'Wild at Heart' study on being a man, I have come away feeling rather depressed at how different I feel my 'spiritual' life/ perspective on the world is. Sometimes I feel that the difficulties I face with 'Christian 'things' are just too big to surmount and I almost just want to forget it all and just curl up in a hole and say "I'm sorry, but I really can't cope with it all' - and if you talk to Christians aboiut it, all they want is for you to join their side otherwise you've had it mate! Oh, pooey, it really stresses me out!
- Dan, Apples and Idealism: Following on the the above course 'Wild at Heart', a recent visit to Herefordshire and all that I have been doing on the garden, I want to write about how I feel I have reached a point of connection with my Father and who he was.
- Painting and Design: I am enjoying playing with watercolour paints, sketching outdoors and doing design work for Urban Saints when I can.
- Family: I love my family!
- Exercise: I feel so much more in control of life when I am getting reasonable exercise either through walking, cycling or gardening.
I think that will do for the moment.

Pray for the Holy Souls in Purgatory
"All who die in God's grace and friendship, but still imperfectly purified, are indeed assured of their eternal salvation; but after death they undergo purification, so as to achieve the holiness necessary to enter the joy of heaven.
The Church gives the name Purgatory to this final purification of the elect, which is entirely different from the punishment of the damned.
"This teaching is also based on the practice of prayer for the dead, mentioned in Sacred Scripture… From the beginning the Church has honored the memory of the dead and offered prayers in suffrage for them, above all the Eucharistic sacrifice, so that, thus purified, they may attain the beatific vision of God. The Church also commends almsgiving, indulgences, and works of penance undertaken on behalf of the dead…" (Catechism of the Catholic Church 1030-1032)
We on earth have the duty and privilege of praying for the souls of loved ones who have gone before us—those in Purgatory cannot pray for themselves (that's why they are traditionally called "poor souls"), and need our prayers.
Here are a few things you can do for the poor souls in Purgatory.
Pray the Eternal Rest prayer:
Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord.
And let the perpetual light shine upon them.
And may the souls of all the faithful departed,
through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
Say this prayer as you pass a cemetery, or when you visit the graves of your departed loved ones. This prayer carries a partial indulgence applicable to the poor souls.
Repent and go to confession: Confessing your own sins makes your prayers more effective.
Do acts of penitence: make small acts of self-denial and offer these penances up for the poor souls.
Pray before the Blessed Sacrament to make an act of reparation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus for those in purgatory.
Offer the mass you attend for the poor souls and have Masses said for your departed loved ones, especially on the anniversary of their death.
Ask the saints in heaven to pray for you and those you love, and trust that those you have prayed for are praying for you when they attain heaven.
Know that I offer the private masses I say on Friday and Saturday this month for the holy souls in purgatory.

Learn how you can bring the gospel to Cuba
Cuba is a small Island located just 90 miles off the coast of Florida. 11 million people live in Cuba. God is doing an incredible work in Cuba! In 1990 there were just 1,100 churches on the whole island. Today, there are over 26,000 churches in Cuba. There are many exciting ways 360Serve is involved in reaching out to Cuba.
Support a Cuban Pastor
What can $50.00 a month do? It can literally change the life of a Cuban pastor! $50.00 per month will pay their entire salary. It's hard for us to believe this, living in the United States, but that's how far $50.00 will go in Cuba. You can support a Cuban pastor for $50.00 per month. Incredible isn't it? Got $50.00? I can't think of a better way to invest it!
Meet Louis & Diana
Louis and Diana are a typical Cuban couple serving the Lord. Listen to their story and how God is at work in their lives.
Support a Children's Ministry Evangelist
Children are a gift from the Lord. Lelean is a gift from God for the children of Cuba. Learn how God is using her in mighty ways to lead dozens of children to Christ.
Doug Foxworthy Baseball Fund
The story of Doug's vision for starting 600 baseball teams in Cuba to reach thousands of youth for Christ is remarkable. God has blessed Doug's dream. As of this writing, 900 baseball teams have been started and 18,255 youth have come to Christ. How many more teams can be started? How many more youth will come to know Christ? All funds donated to the Doug Foxworthy Baseball Fund will allow Doug's vision of baseball ministry in Cuba to continue to grow—so thousands of Cuban youth can learn baseball skills and come to know Christ as Savior and Lord.

Every day, 3800 robotic floats bob up and down, tracking temperatures in the world's oceans, which sop up an estimated 90% of the heat from global warming. In the course of a decade, the international Argo array has provided one of the steadiest signatures of the effects of greenhouse gas emissions. But the floats go no deeper than 2000 meters, warded off by the crushing pressures at greater depths. Now, thanks to a $4 million investment from Paul Allen, the Microsoft co-founder, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) will be deploying 25 next-generation floats, dubbed Deep Argo, that can survive down to 6000 meters, enough to reach the ocean floor at all but deep trenches. If this purchase proves the system viable, scientists hope NOAA will help support a full deployment of 1200 floats, searching for an answer on how global warming is influencing the ocean's deepest, coldest depths
Unlike the last generation of Argo robots—aluminum, cylinder-shaped floats—the new Deep Argo floats, designed by Scripps Institution of Oceanography and Teledyne-Webb Research, can withstand the crushing forces of the deep ocean. Steve Piotrowicz, Program Manager of the U.S. Argo program since 2000, has watched the float design evolve to a glass sphere over the past few years to deal with the challenges of deep-sea diving.
A sphere is able to withstand much greater pressure than a cylinder because the pressure is distributed uniformly along the surface of the device, and glass is not only light and buoyant, but it withstands compression better than steel and titanium.
Beyond the deep ocean, the floats are also able to operate in some of the most inhospitable environments on Earth, such as the frigid waters of the Southern Ocean. To keep from battering itself against the ice, the float can detect conditions that indicate the surface ocean may have frozen over, and it will keep cycling below the surface until the ice retreats.
The new design was put to the test this past June aboard the Research Vessel Tangaroa operated by the National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research of New Zealand. Piotrowicz accompanied a team of oceanographers deploying two prototype Deep Argo floats into the ocean northeast of New Zealand. In this part of the ocean, the seafloor is very flat with few obstacles for the floats to navigate around or over, and there are no strong deep sea currents that could drive dramatic changes in temperature.
Before the floats are deployed, the scientists first launch a CTD unit—"CTD" is an acronym for Conductivity, Temperature, and Depth. Based on a design that oceanographers have been using for decades, the CTD unit has 24 bottles attached to a large metal rosette wheel. The bottles collect water samples, while sensors at the bottom of the unit measure temperature, depth, and salinity. A data cable connects the device to a computer on the ship.
Piotrowicz hopes that in years to come, Deep Argo will achieve global coverage, much like the present of generation of Argo floats. The fledgling U.S. Deep Argo program only has funding to deploy about 12 floats per year. To meet current science objectives, the global fleet will likely require on the order of a thousand floats
