When Julia (she pronounced the name without the "a" at the end) was twenty-four, she inherited $22,000 from an obscure uncle in California. After deducting taxes and administrative expenses, the California State Court ordered the money transferred to her bank account. It came to $20,247.50.
She had been working in a local book store. "I haven't the vaguest idea why it came to me," she told the curious and covertly envious customers. "I guess he just didn't know anybody else."
She was a small, slender girl. Her eyes were bright and enthusiastic, her open smile so friendly that it was infectious.
The first afternoon when the money was actually in the bank under her own name, her father asked, "Well, what are you going to do with it?" He was genuinely curious. He owned his own home and was about to retire on a pension. He felt uncomfortable in the face of $20,247.50—for which he was not able even to imagine a use.
Julia said, "I haven't exactly made up my mind yet." She intended to shop around for a husband, but she did not say this. She thought it would sound very callous to say: I'm going to buy me a husband: I've always wanted one.
Julia gave two weeks notice at the book store. When the time was up she took her last pay check and went to one of the modest dress shops and bought herself a conservative brown suit.
"You have a very nice figure," the clerk told her.
"Thank you." She studied him critically and then shook her head sadly. He wouldn't do.
I've got to be sure I get the right one, she thought. I'll know him when I see him, she reassured herself. It certainly isn't this one.
There ought, she thought, to be a lot of eligible bachelors in Hollywood. The movies ought to attract them.
Two days later she walked down to the bank and instructed the teller to transfer $5,000 of her money to a checking account in her name at the Security First National Bank in Los Angeles.
She told her father she was going to take a little vacation.
"There's plenty of eligible bachelors here," he said.
"Why dad!" she exclaimed indignantly. "... And anyway, none of them ever has asked me."
"God help the man you set your mind on, that's all I can say."
Out beyond the orbit of the moon there was a huge, wheel-shaped space station. Its rapid spin pressed the equivalent of one Earth gravity against its broad, thick rim. Once when the distortion field failed, the Mt. Palomar telescope tracked it for the better part of an hour, but earth astronomers attributed the track either to an irregularity in the photographic plate or to some peculiarity in the atmosphere.
Near the hub where the gravity was weak, the nine aliens lived; in the two rim compartments lived the mutants. There were almost a thousand of the latter—both male and female—in the larger compartment; and fewer than thirty—all male—in the smaller one.
"Soon, now," the mutants told each other with growing excitement, "we shall go down and kill them."
The aliens stepped up the power in the larger of the two transmitters. "Our indoctrination is perfect," they reassured themselves. "The mutants will not get out of hand."
Julia bought a round trip ticket on the Greyhound Bus and carried her bag to the waiting room. A few minutes later the bus drew up outside, bringing with it the exciting travel-smell of hot rubber and gasoline. Most of the passengers climbed out to stretch in the winter sunlight.
"Fifteen minutes," the driver said.
Julia picked up her bag and carried it outside. She gave her ticket to the driver, who was standing by the door, smoking a cigarette. Half way back in the bus she found an empty seat. She hoisted the bag—standing on her tip toes—to the rack above and settled into the seat, primly rearranging her dress.
But she was unable to relax. She stared out the window; the building across the lot presented an uninteresting and windowless expanse of brick. She yawned nervously and surveyed the other passengers who were beginning to filter back.
The driver dropped heavily into his seat behind the wheel; he pulled the door closed, and the motor purred. He counted his passengers in the mirror.
Julia tightened her lips, and her face wrinkled into a stubborn little frown. Her finger tapped restlessly on her knee. She resolved to bring the husband back with her.
She could buy the Castle Place out on Mannor Street for $4,000. She would have $10,000 left to buy him—to make the down payment on, at least—Beck's Hardware Store. From that they would realize a steady and an adequate income. She would give Saturday teas for the society women and show her husband off—in a neat, double breasted suit—in church on Sunday. They would go to the movies twice a week; they would go dancing once a month. They would have three children, two boys and a girl. She would let her husband go moose hunting in Canada once a year, and weekends during bass season they'd go up to the lodge (I should be able to buy the Roger's cabin on Center Creek for a few hundred, she thought) and fish.
She suddenly wished she had flown to Hollywood. She was in a great hurry to get there, get the selecting over and done with, and get back.
At Joplin a young man got on and sat down beside her. She watched him, from time to time, out of the corner of her eye. Outside, the huge chat piles (said by the civic boosters to be the biggest in the world) paraded by the bus. Ought to start snowing again pretty soon, she thought.... It will be fun to swim in the Pacific in February.
After the bus crossed the Missouri-Kansas line she turned to the young man seated beside her. "I'm going to Hollywood," she said.
"Going to get in the movies?"
"Oh, no," Julia said, "... no." Her finger tapped impatiently on her knee.
"That's why most pretty girls go to Hollywood."
Julia blushed. Her eyes, brown and friendly, searched his face. "I'm the domestic sort," she said. "My name's Julia. What's yours?"
"My name's William."
"That's a nice name."
"Julia's a nice name, too."
"I majored in literature in high school," Julia said. "I like to read. I worked in a book store back home."
William shifted uncomfortably. "I don't read much."
Julia frowned. "I read a lot."
"Reading's all right."
"I like to curl up with a good book."
They fell silent.
Julia bit her lip, nipping it into redness with her white, even teeth. I guess I'm not much of a conversationalist, she thought. For a moment she felt tiny and afraid.
Dispiritedly she searched in her sandwich bag for an apple. She brought it out and regarded it intently.
"You want half?"
"No, thanks."
She found a pen knife in her hand bag and began to peel the apple, wrinkling her forehead in concentration.
The bus was in a state supervised section of the highway. It hit a chuck hole, and the pen knife slipped, slicing deeply into her finger. Annoyed and embarrassed, she watched the blood well up in the cut. She put the apple in her lap. "Oh, dear...." She held the finger away from her.
William bent forward. "Euuuu," he said sympathetically. "Here...." He reached for his handkerchief. But before the hand got to it, he reconsidered, perhaps remembering that handkerchiefs are unsanitary. "Euuuu," he said again, shuddering. He moved his hands helplessly and stared at the blood trickling from the finger onto the floor. "Euuuu."
Julia decided: No, he certainly won't do.
She glared angrily at her finger.
And the cut closed; the edges came together and joined in a neat, red line. The blood ceased to flow. The red line vanished as the flesh knitted. The finger was as scarless as it had been moments before.
"I'll be God damned," the young man said.
"... that's very odd," Julia said. She held up the finger. She put the pen knife in her lap beside the apple and felt the finger.
"You must have some rare type of blood," William said.
She wiggled the finger. "You mean something like the reverse of hemophilia?"
"I don't guess I read enough to know big words: just some rare type of blood."
"Nothing like this ever happened before," Julia said, still watching the finger suspiciously. "I've never heard of anything like it."
"Hello," she answered.
"What did you say?" the young man asked.
"I said, 'Hello'."
"Didn't you say hello a moment ago?" Julia said, looking at him with an annoyed little frown on her face.
"That's funny...."
Hello. Where are you?
"I'm right here beside you," she said.
"What are you talking about?" the young man said.
What planet are you on?
William's lips hadn't moved that time. She'd been watching. She thought the young man was somehow trying to make fun of her.
"Excuse me," she said coldly. She picked up her apple and her pen knife and her handbag and brushed past him into the aisle. She looked around, saw a seat three rows back on the opposite side of the bus. She went to it and settled down, moving over against the window.
William was staring around at her with a puzzled expression on his face.
She jerked her head away from him angrily and stared out the window at the cold, barren plain. He's not at all nice, she thought.
Grimly she refused to listen. He must be doing it with a sort of radio set, she thought. It's probably some sort of thing they advertize in magazines for $2.98. She blinked her eyes. I wish he'd stop. I don't think it's a bit funny.
After a few more miles, the voice stopped.
Morosely Julia finished peeling her apple.
It was cold in the Hollywood bus depot; chill rain drizzled down from a leaden sky.
She stood in the protection of the building, bag in hand, shivering miserably. Twice she waved futilely for a cab. On the third attempt, she got one.
The driver opened the door for her, and she bolted through the rain to its inviting back seat.
"Take me to some nice hotel," she said.
The driver flipped up the flag and gunned the motor.
Five minutes later she was paying him ninety cents; leaving the extra dime out of the dollar for a tip, she ran for the hotel steps.
After she registered, she asked the fatherly old gentleman at the desk, "Where does a person go to meet people?" Water trickled down from her hair and across her face.
He bent forward and narrowed his eyes. "Meet people?" he asked; his tone had grown cold and suspicious.
She bit her lip in embarrassment. Did I say something wrong? she thought. "Never mind," she said, wanting to cry. "I'm not going to stay in this horrible town a minute more than I have to!"
"She," the bellboy said when he came down stairs, "is crazy."
"What do you mean?"
"You should have seen her walk through the door." He pronounced the last word emphatically.
"You mean doorway."
"I mean door," the bell boy said. "It was closed when she done it."
"I'm going to have to keep an eye on her," the clerk said, clucking his tongue in dry disapproval.
Now how did I do that? Julia asked herself. She walked to the door and put her hand through it. She wiggled her fingers. She half-opened the door and put her hand through it again. It came out on the other side. She moved her arm back and forth. It felt prickly.
She crossed to the bed and sat down. This isn't so good, she thought. I've got to figure out how I did that.
She closed her eyes tightly. Other people can't put their hands through doors, she thought. Other people can't heal cuts by looking at them, either.... I never could before; I don't feel any different from other people.
And then a little chill of fear ran up and down her spine. Suppose the bed, the floor, the earth below were suddenly to become as unsubstantial as the door. I might drop clear through to China, to, to....
Her fingernails were making red creases in her palms.
She stood up and stamped on the floor. Her knees trembled. The floor was solid.
She went to the door. It is solid, she thought. She let her fingers explore the surface. She sighed, feeling the rough texture of the wood.
Now, she thought. I can reach through it.
Her hand passed through it easily.
She went back to the bed and sat down.
I did it with my mind, she thought. I wanted to put my hand through the door, and I did. In front of the bell hop, I suddenly felt so sure that I could walk through the door that ... I did.
I'm going to figure out how I did that, she thought, her mouth tightening into a thin little line of resolution. Because if I learned to do it, anyone else could learn....
Her hands clenched into annoyed little fists. She went to the window and looked out. She opened the door and looked up and down the corridor. No William.
"He ... hello."
Good, you can hear me. What planet are you on?
"The same planet everyone else is."
... the third one from the sun?
She tried to remember her high school science survey course; and she found that she could remember it very clearly. Of course, it is.
That's funny.
She realized that she had thought her last statement, and that he (she was sure that the voice belonged to a he) had answered it nevertheless. She was exchanging thoughts with someone!
Hello, she thought weakly. She gulped. What do you look like? How many arms and legs do you have?
Two of each.
Her mind was very alert and active. She could think with great clarity. Describe yourself. She received a mental impression of him.
She let out her breath. He was human, after all; as human as anybody. And handsome.
She laughed softly with relief: since he has never been able to find anyone like himself, he thought I was from another planet!
Describe yourself again.
He complied.
Suddenly she knew with absolute certainty that this was the one she was looking for. Out of all the people on earth, here was a man made for her.
Could you put your hand through a wooden door?
Of course.
She smiled happily. She meant to have him.
There was silence.
She wrinkled her forehead and tapped her knee. He had ceased transmitting.
He'll be back, she thought with satisfaction. I wonder what size suit he wears? I think I'll buy him a nice wool one. I want my husband to look presentable.
Smiling, she went to the phone. She called her bank and ordered her account transferred to the all-night branch in Los Angeles. She wanted to have her money available so she could leave town to go to him the moment she found out where he lived: or (assuming he came to her) to have it handy so she could leave town with him the moment he proposed to her—even if it were in the middle of the night.
After that, she went to the door and put her hand through it.
I'm going to have to figure this out, she thought. If I figure out how I did it, I'm sure I can teach other people. I'm no different than they are; and I don't intend to be.
She went back to the bed and sat down and began to think.
And she discovered that she could remember the greater part of everything she'd ever read.
Calvin practiced teleportation for endless hours. He kept the metal ball Forential had given him in almost constant motion.
He would exclaim delightedly and hurl it toward one of the twenty-seven other mutants in his compartment. Until the time he hit John in the back of the head with it, his intended victims had always parried it. John lay in a pool of blood, and Calvin began to cry—loud, shrill wails of despair and contrition. When Forential came, he knew instinctively what had happened.
Calvin represented the only failure the aliens had experienced in their mutation program; ten years ago his mind had ceased to develop. But for Forential's intercession, the council would have had him destroyed long ago; Forential, like a proud parent, kept hoping to overcome Calvin's heredity.
Forential waved his tentacles in exasperation. "You, here, Walt," he said. "We'll have to hurry. I'll show you how, and you can do it."
Walt, the most adept mutant in the compartment, listened attentively and then began to heal John. His face wrinkled in deep concentration. Flesh came together; blood ceased to flow; bone knitted. Forential grunted approval.
"Watch Walt, now," the alien instructed. "He's doing it nicely."
The others, breath held, watched.
At length John's head was healed. John stirred. He opened his eyes and looked about angrily. He stood up and hit Calvin in the face with his fist. Calvin, tears streaming down his cheeks, fingered his nose and sobbed brokenly. He put out a hand to touch Walt reassuringly.
Walt was his friend.
Walt—he had no other name—was six feet two inches tall, and, as Julia observed, handsome. His parents—he did not know this—were Americans; he had never seen them. He had been stolen from the hospital by Forential shortly after he was born. The alien, invisible, had come for him, clucked softly, wrapped him in a warm, invisible mantle, and taken him away; and the council of aliens had drawn a line through the names of another set of parents who had been exposed to the powerful, mutation-inducing field. Walt thought of Forential—in charge of their compartment—as a friend, as a parent, as a playmate, and as a counselor.
Shortly after Walt had healed John, the mutants of the smaller compartment gathered at the observation screen in the floor—or what was to them the floor: it was actually the broad rim of the wheel. They could look down at the screen and see a somewhat flickering image of Earth lying below their feet.
"Forential told us we'd get many strange powers...." one said.
Just before we went down to the planet, another completed the thought.
It's growing time, then.
They laughed together with excitement, and Calvin cracked his knuckles nervously.
"Let's play a trick on Forential," Calvin said. "Let's see if we can go through the bulkhead." His face was bright and hopeful. "Let's huh?"
Calvin raced to the far end of the compartment. "Come on!"
Like guilty children, they looked at one another. Then a few of them joined Calvin. All right, let's.
"Don't," Walt cautioned. "It's just machinery on the other side."
Why can't our thoughts penetrate it, then?
We aren't developed enough, Walt thought.
"Huh?" Calvin asked. He began pounding the bulkhead with his fist.
"No," one of the other mutants said. "Like this." He concentrated and tried to put a hand through the bulkhead.
We aren't developed enough.
Still the mutants continued. Since the aliens had stepped up the power in the two transmitters (power that closed the final connection in the mutants' brains and held it closed) the mutants were able to assault any problem with the full potentialities of the human brain. But even that was not enough. The aliens had planned carefully in order to keep the two mutant groups from discovering each other.

William Butler Yeats
Never Give All The Heart - Poem by William Butler Yeats
NEVER give all the heart, for love
Will hardly seem worth thinking of
To passionate women if it seem
Certain, and they never dream
That it fades out from kiss to kiss;
For everything that's lovely is
But a brief, dreamy. Kind delight.
O never give the heart outright,
For they, for all smooth lips can say,
Have given their hearts up to the play.
And who could play it well enough
If deaf and dumb and blind with love?
He that made this knows all the cost,
For he gave all his heart and lost.
Comments about Never Give All The Heart by William Butler Yeats
Georgi Nedelchev (6/1/2017 5:34:00 PM)
I will gladly give my heart away,
just to find the one that doesn't play!
Georgi Nedelchev (Report)Reply
Sylvia Myres (7/12/2010 6:32:00 PM)
Should we hede these words or make ourselves succumb to the beating of the 'other' heart, within the one we love?
Should we succumb to the beating heart and not take warning from the start of these, kind words of one, who has been and lost his heart to love? (Report)Reply

From traditional food truck carts to chuck wagons invented by a Texas Ranger in 1866 to feed cowboys. Nothing has changed much, to be honest, it's just got 4 wheels and a motorised engine aka the (food truck) making it more mobile and accessible. In saying this street food is still the same, make good food and sell it out of a conventional stand or transportable vehicle. At least that is the easy part. Now, how did the Texas Ranger in 1866 get the word out about his awesome street food? A big Yeeeeehaaaaaaa perhaps!
Okay so let's take this analogy of direct marketing to social media marketing in this day and age. It's super difficult in keeping track of where your favourite street food trader is, let alone knowing the menu in advance. yumXYZ has the solution an app that lets traders update their location in real time letting the customers know their trading location and menu in advance.
Food traders always have a difficult time battling the weather, finding the right pitch with enough footfall, private events. Now they can have a helping hand with these mundane tasks and just focus on the food and customers.
Technology has helped many companies increase their revenues from the restaurant industry to the cab industry with a cab magically arriving in front of yourself. By saying this, consumers are adopting the tap now appear later. This has been transformed by huge marketing budgets as well as great companies instilling this confidence by the hard work of the quality of products produced and customer service.
We are proud to announce yumXYZ is now available on the Apple App Store. Please download it and let us know your thoughts.

South Beach Suggestions:
You could eat this alone as a phase one dinner for the South Beach Diet, but it would be more traditional to serve it with white rice, or even Couscous, as I did. Uncle Ben's Converted Rice would be the best choice for a low-glycemic type of white rice.

When lignite is mined, wet coal is transported by conveyor systems to the processing station. The hoisting systems transport the lignite vertically on metal sheets.
The heavy, wet coal causes the sheets to wear quickly. And, the sticky coal causes blockage that has to be cleaned again and again.
Coating the conveyor sheets with PlasmaCoat® protects the metal from wear and the coal no longer sticks.
The sheets can transport the wet coal without malfunction. The sheets do not need to be replaced as frequently. Cleaning and maintenance costs were reduced considerably.

Cassilhaus Travel Fellowship Presentation
The inaugural Cassilhaus Travel Fellowship Presentation features the work-in-progress of 2016 Cassilhaus Travel Fellow Alina Taalman. The work, a 16mm digital video entitled "Kolmas Punkt (The Third Point)," "...traces past explorations and family lines across Estonian land and water, reflecting on former ways of seeing to interpret a strangely familiar landscape," Taalman says.
The Cassilhaus Travel Fellowship, made possible through a partnership between Cassilhaus, the Master of Fine Arts in Experimental and Documentary Arts (MFA|EDA), and the Center for Documentary Studies at Duke University (CDS), was created with the idea that travel can be transformative in the life of an emerging artist. The biennial $10,000 fellowship, funded by Ellen Cassilly and Frank Konhaus of Cassilhaus, supports Duke University MFA|EDA graduates for an eighteen-month period in their artistic research and practice beyond the traditional educational environment. "We believe extended travel has a unique power to educate, enrich, and transform people and take them places far beyond the point they initially disembarked," Cassilly and Konhaus said. "We feel fortunate to have the MFA|EDA and the Center for Documentary Studies as partners in this adventure."
The recipient of the inaugural Cassilhaus Travel Fellowship, Taalman (MFA|EDA Class of 2015), traveled to Estonia to "make a film that explores my Estonian family history, which has always been broken into fleeting narratives," she writes.

Oxford - England
Magdalen College (pronounced"mawdlin") is one of the constituent college of the University of Oxford. Magdalen College was founded in 1458 by William Waynflete, Bishop of Winchester. The founder's statutes included provision for a choral foundation of men and boys (a tradition that has continued to the present day) and made reference to the pronunciation of the name of the College in English. Regarded by some as one of the most beautiful of theOxford and Cambridge colleges, Magdalen is also one of the most visited. It stands next to theRiver Cherwell and has within its grounds a deer park and Addison's Walk. The large, square Magdalen Tower is a famous Oxford landmark, and it is a tradition since the days of Henry VII that the college choir sings from the top of it at 6 a.m. on May Morning. Oscar Wilde was one of the most famous alumni of Magdalen College
Legends persist that his behaviour cost him a dunking in theRiver Cherwell (the river that cross the college) in addition to having his rooms (which still survive as student accommodation at his old college) vandalized, but the cult spread among certain segments of society to such an extent that languishing attitudes, "too-too" costumes and aestheticism generally became a recognised pose.He also became more conscious of his bisexual nature. For his increasing "femine" dress he often received stick from more "traditional" Oxford students. He was a brilliant scholar but also increasingly rebellious. In one academic year he got rusticated for turning up to College 3 weeks after the start of term. Thus after a while he lost interest in pursuing an academic career in Oxford and moved to London.
Wilde died of cerebral meningitis on 30 November 1900.
The tomb of Oscar Wilde in Pére Lachaise cemetery - Paris
The little
white clouds are racing over the sky
And the fields are strewn with the gold of the flowers of March,
The daffodil breaks under foot, and the tasselled larch
Sways and swing as the thrush goes hurrying by.
A delicate odour is borne on the wings of the morning breeze,
The odour of leaves and of grass, and of newly upturned earth,
The birds are singing for joy of the Spring's glad birth,
Hopping from branch to branch on the rocking trees.
And all the woods are alive with the murmur and sound of Spring,
And the rose-bud breaks into pik on the climbing briar,
And the crocus-bed is a quivering moon of fire
Girdled round with the belt of an amethyst ring.
And the plane to the pine-tree is whispering some tale of love
Till it rustles with laughter and tosses its mantle of green,
And the gloom of the wych-elm's hollow is lit with the iris sheen
Of the burnished rainbow throat and the silver breast of a dove.
See! the lark starts up from his bed in the meadow there,
Breaking the grossamer threads and the nets of dew,
And flashing adown the river, a flame of blue!
The kingfisher flies like an arrow, and wounds the air.
And the sense of my life is sweet! though I know that the end is nigh:
For the ruin and rain of winter will shortly come,
The lily will lose its gold, anche the chestnut bloom
In billows of red and white on the grass will lie.
And even the light of the sun will fade at the last,
And the leaves will fall, and the birds will hasten away,
And I will be left in the snow of a flowerless day
To think on the glory of Spring, and the joys of a a youth long past.
Yet be silent, my heart! do not count it a profitless thing
To have seen the splendour of sun, and of grass, and of flower!
To have lived and loved! for I hold that to love for an hour
Is better for man and for woman than cycles of blossoming Spring.
by Oscar Wilde

Stonehill head coach recognized for second-straight season by the AVCA
|Lauren Amundson
EASTON, Mass. (February 23, 2012) – Stonehill College head volleyball coach Lauren Amundson has been selected as a recipient of the 2012 American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) Thirty Under 30 Award. Established in 2009, the award honors emerging coaching talent younger than 30 years old at all levels of volleyball.
Amundson earns the award for the second time in her career in as many seasons after leading the Skyhawks to their first-ever trip to the NCAA Division II Tournament this past fall. Amundson piloted Stonehill to a 27-7 record overall, tying the program mark for most wins in a single season which was set in 1996 (27-8), and also led the squad to a program record 14 conference wins (14-1). For her efforts, Amundson was named the Northeast-10 Conference (NE-10) Coach of the Year for the first time in her career.
Amundson, one of three NCAA Division II coaches honored this year, has compiled a 58-31 record overall (.652 winning percentage) in three seasons and a 34-11 mark in NE-10 play, good enough for a .756 winning percentage. Over the course of her three-year career, Amundson has coached seven All-Conference players, two All-Rookie selections and one Rookie of the Year. Three of the seven NE-10 All-Conference selections have been first team honorees while sophomore Sydney Maxey (Hutto, Texas/Hutto) and freshman Emily Iverson (Elmhurst, Ill./York) became the first players in program history this past season to earn AVCA All-East Region honors. Junior Erin Kelly (Tinley Park, Ill./Marist) also earned honorable mention recognition by the AVCA.
As successful as her teams have been on the court, the Stonehill College women's volleyball team has also been recognized for its hard work in the classroom, garnering the Fred C. Petti Team Academic Award in 2009 for having the highest combined grade point average (GPA) among Stonehill women's teams during the academic year.
Most recently, the Stonehill women's volleyball team had two student-athletes, Kelly and Maxey, selected as NE-10 Academic All-Conference members, nine student-athletes named to the 2011 Fall Athletic Director's Honor Roll and ten student-athletes receive NE-10 Fall Commissioner Honor Roll accolades.
The Skyhawks were also honored by the AVCA for their work in the classroom during the 2010-2011 season with an AVCA Team Academic Award. The award, which was originated in the 1992-93 academic year, honors collegiate and high school volleyball teams that displayed excellence in the classroom by maintaining at least a 3.30 cumulative team GPA on a 4.0 scale or a 4.10 cumulative team GPA on a 5.0 scale.
Prior to Stonehill, Amundson spent two years as an assistant coach at Bryant University as the program transitioned to Division I, helping the Bulldogs to a combined 48-32 overall record and an appearance in the 2007 NCAA Division II East Regional championship game. As a collegiate player, she was a standout setter for Christian Brothers University in Memphis, where she holds four program records including the single-season and career assist marks.
Of the thirty recipients, 19 are head coaches and 11 are assistant coaches. Ten are NCAA Division I women's coaches, four coach NAIA squads, four are NCAA Division III and another four for high school. There were also three Club coaches and two Two-Year College coaches recognized. To qualify for the award nominees had to be 30 years old or younger in 2011.

Yippee!!!!...Interweave Press Called and My Magazine is Coming!!
I've been on a search for a couple of patterns ~ Swallowtail Shawl and Flower Basket Shawl ~ for quite a while now. Yesterday, I ordered the Fall 2006 issue from the back issues section of their website. In the comments section I asked if Fall 2004 was still available or if there was a chance the Flower Basket Shawl would be re-issued as a separate pattern.
I just got off the phone with a very nice person from Interweave Press who informed me they have only 2 or 3 copies of Fall 2004 available and wanted to know if I wanted to purchase one. Yes!! Yes!!
It is to be shipped with the other magazine. Yippee!!

I shot .CR2 files on my Canon Rebel T7. Now I can't open the files in Lightroom 6. How can I convert the .CR2 files into a .RAW format?
1.CR2 files are a raw file format. What version of the Adobe Camera Raw plugin are you using with Lightroom? – Michael C Dec 1 '18 at 22:23
New to this and I don't have Adobe Camera Raw plugin. What should I do? – Max Dec 1 '18 at 22:27
3Possible duplicate of How do I tell if ACR will work with my camera and how do I get the correct version for Photoshop? – inkista Dec 1 '18 at 22:47
I also tried the Adobe DNG Converter but it doesn't recognize any folders or CR2 files. – Max Dec 1 '18 at 22:51
@Max Lightroom requires the Adobe Camera Raw plugin to open any raw files from any camera. The version of ACR you have installed must have camera profiles for the camera from which the raw files came. The DNG convertor also depends on ACR for the information it needs about the raw files from each specific camera. All Adobe Products do. – Michael C Dec 1 '18 at 22:59
Adobe does not support the Canon Rebel T7 in LR6, only in the newer Lightroom CC/Lightroom Classic CC. If you'd like to, you can convert your .CR2 files to .DNG files using Adobe's DNG Converter (DNG is an open format created by Adboe meant as a replacement for proprietary camera RAW formats).
Lightroom 6 will then read the DNG files as you would expect.
As of December 2017, Lightroom 6 is no longer supported. Please see this Adobe blog post for more information: http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2017/12/6-14-now-available-last-perpetual-update-of-lightroom.html

Keep in mind that at our firm recruiters can review up to 100s of resumes every day in order to bring in the best candidates in for interviews and therefore can not spend hours reviewing resumes and bringing candidates in whom we can not place.
Montreal, Quebec, Canada (PRWEB) November 14, 2012
Mr. Kovalenko says that there are eight reasons why IT recruiters could potentially reject your resume:
1. Firstly, when a recruiter looks over a resume - he or she wants to find experience in the field. If a candidate is a PHP Developer with no object oriented development experience and the job is for an object oriented Java Developer - the recruiter is not going to call. Companies are paying recruiters to find an apple to fill an apple job. Companies are not paying recruiters to help candidates transfer their skills from one field to another. If a company is going to pay a recruiter a significant retainer fee, they expect a perfect match.
2. What is candidate's level or title? If the recruiter is searching for a team lead developer and a candidate's title is a senior developer, that candidate should not expect an interview with the recruiter. Again, the recruiter is hired to find a team lead developer, not to squeeze a senior developer into a team lead position. On the other hand, if the client wants a senior developer and a candidate is a team lead - that candidate is over-qualified and even if he or she thinks they can do a senior developer's job the client will not. The first team lead job that comes along might interest that candidate more, causing the recruiter and the company to suspect that you are going to pursue the better opportunity; neither party is willing to risk that.
3. The next area the recruiter is going to look at is the most recent experience. If the client wants a Linux Systems Administrator for a hosting company and a candidate has the experience, but it was over five years ago, recruiter will reject the resume. Any good recruiter can find a candidate with that current familiarity. If candidate was a good Linux Administrator five years ago and have not worked in that area since, their skills might be nowhere near contemporary due to new technologies like virtualization, vmware, etc.
4. Location, location, location. If a client is in Montreal and a candidate is in Toronto - that candidate will most likely not get an interview. Relocating candidates is just too problematic if there is a viable candidate in the client's location. In addition, most companies are not interested in paying for relocation in a slow economy. Moreover, there is usually the additional challenge of a spouse who must also relocate and find a job. Things can get even more complicated when a candidate needs to move from an English speaking province to a French speaking province on top of that.
5. The next aspect the recruiter will look at is whether the industry experience matches the client's. Again this is not an economy that allows for deciding whether skills will transfer from one industry to another. If candidate is in medical software development and the job is in financial development - the recruiter will not be calling. Skills might transfer and candidate might become a financial software developer, but it is not up to the recruiter to do that.
6. Education is the next big thing to consider and this one can be an automatic killer. Most recruiters are looking for a Masters or Bachelors in Computer Science or Engineering because they are hired to find the best candidates. No company will be paying a recruiter for a non-degreed or Bachelor of Arts candidate.
7. Job-hoppers: If candidate does not hold any position for an extensive period of time, job seeker should not expect an interview with a recruiter. If candidate had six jobs in the last four years there better be a very good reason for it (for example, maybe candidate worked contracts).
8. Contractors becoming Perm and vice versa. If a candidate is a contractor and recruiter is looking for someone to fill a permanent role - do not expect a call. Most candidates who work contract sometimes dream of becoming permanent employees for stability reasons, as well as to pick up benefits. However, the monetary gain from being a contractor is just too difficult to give up and most contractors who turn perm usually switch back within a year. In these cases, recruiters would have to find a replacement.
And last but not least says Alex Kovalenko: "List your accomplishments and what technologies you have worked with the two - three companies you have worked for. Make sure your resume is two pages long (even if you have worked for over 10 years) and is in traditional and chronological format."

Magic Message Mirror home security system
The Magic Message Mirror is for those who want to combine their love of Disney with home security. Mirror mirror on the wall, who's the safest one of all? You will be, of course. The portrait in the photo above is actually a home security device.
Just wire it into your existing home security system and it will appear to be an ordinary mirror until it's triggered by someone walking in front of the beam. That's when the scary apparition appear just like in the Snow White movie, yelling prerecorded phrases you've recorded. The mirror is actually a 30 inch LCD display with a CGI character known as "Basil of the Mirror". I'm not sure it would scare a thief enough to leave and give up his life of crime. It would probably scare him for a few seconds until he realized what's going on. Then they would likely steal the mirror, because it's cool.

Last week, the United States unveiled a $255 million new home for the American Institute of Taiwan — Washington's de facto embassy in Taipei. While the move angered Beijing, it was an outlier. Outside of Washington, President Xi Jinping's hardline approach to Taiwan is getting results.
The big picture: China is chipping away at Taipei's legitimacy on the international stage by pressuring companies and foreign countries to stop treating the self-governing island as a sovereign nation — and Beijing has the economic leverage to pull it off.

Biological Activity
|Dequalinium Chloride is a PKC inhibitor with IC50 of 7-18 μM, and also a selective blocker of apamin-sensitive K+ channels with IC50 of 1.1 μM.
|In vitro
Dequalinium chloride (DECA) is a cationic, lipophilic compound with structure similar to the dye rhodamine 123. DECA is selectively accumulated and retained within the mitochondria of carcinoma cells where it acts as a mitochondrial poison by blocking mitochondrial enzymes which can then disrupt cellular energy production, eventually resulting in cell death. Dequalinium Chloride is a blocker of ganglionic transmission (EC50 = 2 μM). [1] Dequalinium is a potent inhibitor of apamin-sensitive K+ channels in hepatocytes and of nicotinic responses in skeletal muscle. Dequalinium blocks angiotensin II-evoked K+ loss with an IC50 of 1.5 μM and also inhibited125I - monoiodoapamin binding with Ki of 1.1 μM. [2] Dequalinium produces a rapid and reversible inhibition of the slow apamin-sensitive component of the afterhyperpolarization (AHP) which follows a single action potential in cultured rat sympathetic neurones. [3] Dequalinium Chloride (DECA) is a dicationic lipophilic PKC inhibitor. When exposed to UV light, DECA covalently binds to and irreversibly inhibits PKCα and PKCβ. [4]
|In vivo
|In mice bearing bladder MB49 tumors, Dequalinium chloride (2 mg/kg/d, i.p.) displays anticarcinoma activity with T/C of 210%. [5]

There's good news and bad news for American libraries. First, the good news: The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) set aside $7.2 billion to expand broadband connectivity in libraries, schools, and other "anchor institutions" across the country. This funding couldn't have come at a better time. In most communities, struggling public libraries are the only source of free internet access—and according to one study, 69% of all Americans have used the internet in the past year to look for a job, sell personal items, improve their skills, or find other ways to cope with the recession. In this economy, the internet is more of a necessity than a luxury.
Unfortunately, the government released its first Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) last month to establish how the ARRA's $7.2 billion in broadband funding will be distributed. That's where the bad news comes in. According to a letter from the ALA to the assistant secretary of commerce, the NOFA "in effect de-prioritizes libraries and discourages them from applying for funding." Specifically, the new rules count communities as "unserved" or "underserved" only if 50% to 90% of households lack internet access, a definition that excludes most urban areas from serious funding. This is a major departure from the original intent of the bill, and the ALA has requested changes.
To help libraries and library patrons get the resources they need, please take a moment to write your representative, your senator, and the White House, or leave us a comment explaining how your library's free internet access helps you. It's not too late to make your voice heard!

Be sure to read items #3 and #4 at the end of this review for better options.
|"Frankly, I've never seen so many hate-filled trolls
and worse in one place at one time."
I discovered a social network website known as Nextdoor. Despite the above quote, every neighborhood Nextdoor forum could be different, so your results or experiences there could vary. There's just no way of knowing in advance.
Posts to the site are made by you and your neighbors in the surrounding areas, sometimes even the police and fire departments will contribute generalized information. The Nextdoor website is supposed to help people know what is going on in their neighborhood, but fails miserably in that regard. Unfortunately there is also the possibility of immediately being subjected to unwanted contact and worse.
Nextdoor has all sorts of customization settings available. You can control which nearby neighborhood posts you see. You can control which neighborhood posts you receive email notifications about; settings range from all, some, or none.
The Nextdoor forums are supposed to be a good social network experience. However, attempting to participate can often result in very bad experiences. It is unfortunate this review has been forced to become a negative description of the Nextdoor website and to conclude the site is outright unsafe.
The Nextdoor Forums Have One Very Bad FlawBullies, trolls, and worse are not monitored nor restrained in the Nextdoor forums. They are free to launch personal attacks, make false accusations, and even try to do you real harm in the real world. Remember, these are your neighbors and real names and addresses are used. In most cases, they just want to humiliate and inflict as much emotional pain as possible for sport. However, the potential for real world spillover is also a major concern.
It all depends on what forum you happen to be forced to visit or use.
If you happen to live in a neighborhood where bad people haven't yet taken over the Nextdoor forum, things could be ok.
But if you discover it's one of the forums where there are groups of people who automatically want to hurt strangers in any and every way they possibly can just for the fun of it, it is best to depart before there are real world ramifications.
(The gun in the Clint meme is misleading. Extreme emotional pain, false accusations affecting real world situations, vandalism, or legal consequences are the actual, main dangers.)
If you choose to go near there, here's hoping your neighborhood and corollary Nextdoor forums are one of the normal ones. Take care.
Year 2017 and 2018 Updates (4 items), a year 2019 update then follows.Item #1 In the event you are subjected to personal attacks and you attempt to defend yourself, you will be the one Nextdoor will ban. Nextdoor lets the lowest common denominator rule, reason being there are so many of them and Nextdoor really doesn't have much of a business choice in the matter. The banning might also be for your own protection, objective being to prevent escalation to the level of real world consequences. There are indeed people inhabiting some of the Nextdoor forums who will do or try to do you real world harm.
Item #2 Based on what I have personally witnessed and what the search engine results say, I wouldn't go there. Nothing of value is ever posted there anyway. And the possibility of negative consequences are just too great.
Item #3 Long story short, better to type your city or neighborhood name into Facebook search. You will invariably find a group dedicated to talking about your neighborhood. There will be regular posts about what crimes have just occurred, both positive and negative comments about experiences at local businesses, what the police and fire departments are currently dealing with, reports of what's going on at specific locations, what's happening at city hall and other government offices, locations to avoid, locations to visit, lots of videos and pictures, and all sorts of other useful information. If you happen to not find a Facebook group for your town, start one and be the admin!
Item #4 I found very little of what I described in item #3 at the Nextdoor website. Sadly, the site is useless and can even be dangerous. The intentions of the site owner(s) were no doubt just to duplicate the Facebook groups and provide similar positive experiences. I respect them for trying. It is just plain bad luck the forums were taken over by undesirables.

Why is it so hard to fall to my knees
When I'm overwhelmed, tired, and don't know where to go?
Well, I do know where, it's to Him
But somehow while I feel His presence I'm only scratching the surface
I reach out with grasping fingers but miss the fullness of His hand
I want to dive right in, the water is fine
I know He's there yet my bent knees won't take that final spring
They won't dive into the water and they won't kneel in prayer
Distracted, restless, still trying to do it on my own
Or maybe just too tired to move at all
Why is it so hard to fall to my knees
When I long for Him, ache for Him, need His strength in my limbs?
Need Him so much that I cannot even kneel on my own
Need Him to draw me in, I want to bow
Bow in His presence, rest in His glory
Anxiety, really the art of disbelief
Distracted, restless, not fully living
Puffs up the 'self', makes me think I'm 'doing something'
What a waste of time, keeping me at half mast
You'd think I would have learned this by now
Why is it so hard to fall to my knees
When His hands are there to catch my fall?
When the very essence of love is etched in His smile?
When His tender compassion envelopes me fully?
When His all-powerful, all-knowing Self is absolutely trustworthy?
Silly, stubborn, wayward girl
Get on your knees
Just fall
