Chicago (January 16, 2006) -- Hotel Technology Next Generation (HTNG) today announced a new workgroup that will focus on content management for distribution channels. This workgroup – the initial sponsors of which are Cendant Travel Distribution Services, Global Hyatt Corp., Lanyon, Leonardo Media, Pegasus Solutions, OpenTravel™ Alliance (OTA), and Starwood Hotels and Resorts Worldwide, Inc. – will bring together interested hotel companies and technology vendors to define and implement a robust and reliable, open-standards-based approach to content management.
The new workgroup will be the first HTNG workgroup to hold its meetings principally in Europe, where languages, distribution channels, and resort destinations combine to make content management a particularly important issue.
"As distribution channels have evolved from simple text-based systems into multiple forms of rich media, often in multiple languages, the challenge of keeping channels updated with current information has grown exponentially," says Douglas C. Rice, Executive Director of HTNG. "This workgroup will build on several of the commercial content management tools already available in the market, and will seek to create an open framework that will allow hotels to manage even the most complex content seamlessly."
"The OTA has a wealth of experience building standard message structures that create much needed value between trading partners," said John Turato, chair of the OpenTravel™ Alliance and vice-president of technology for Cendant Car Rental Group. "We are excited about partnering with HTNG again on another important industry initiative. Content management is an area where we can make great progress together."
The four sponsoring vendors already offer important products to support content management for hotels, and all of them recognize that content management is an industry challenge that they cannot solve alone. By working together, these and other vendors can identify common technologies that they can all endorse and support, which can then be used to drive a more standards-based approach to content management in the external distribution channels.
This workgroup will seek to create "solution sets" that hotels, hotel companies, distribution channels, promotional channels, and intermediate service companies can "plug into" to achieve simple and consistent management and delivery of rich content from the source (hotels and hotel companies) to the destination (distribution channels and promotional channels). "Solution sets" are groups of technology solutions, developed by different vendors, that work well together to solve a larger business problem than any one solution by itself.
Conceptually, the premise of the workgroup is that hotels should have a single point of entry from which they can manage rich content in all connected distribution and promotional channels. Distribution and promotional channels should have a single point of access, from which they can receive rich content from all connected hotels and hotel companies. And intermediary content service companies, who perform services such as image enhancement, mapping, and translation, should have a single point of access, under the authority and control of the hotels, so that they can receive content updates, perform their enhancement services, and forward the results onward to the next stage in the editing, approval, or distribution process.
The new workgroup's charter states that the resulting approach should support key functionaliy that will enable hotels to manage the creation and maintenance of rich content, and to ensure its consistency across all supported channels. This includes role-based security to support the hotel company's business process by ensuring that only authorized people and contractors can edit and approve content, and support for the different workflow processes that are used by hotels to produce and distribute rich content.
The solution will leverage efforts by existing industry players to support this process, including technology vendors, hotel companies, and associations such as the OpenTravelTM Alliance (OTA) and the Hotel Electronic Distribution Network Association (HEDNA). As with HTNG's Property Distribution Workgroup, this workgroup will seek maximum use of existing standards (such as those published by OTA), where they apply.
"HTNG's vision for the future is one where hotel systems can seamlessly work together to serve the customer," said Rice. "Distribution systems' content has been a major challenge in recognizing that vision. Hotel companies spend an enormous amount of money developing high-quality content to promote their products, but invariably it never reaches some channels, or quickly becomes stale. There is no systematic way to ensure that distribution channels – and therefore guests – can always have information that is up-to-date."
In addition to the six sponsors, applications from other hotel companies and technology providers will be accepted through February 8, with an initial maximum of 25 companies. These organizations will provide a balance of insights from a variety of organizations serving the content management ecosystem.
Workgroups typically set interim deliverables goals every six months to ensure concrete and continual progress. Specifications are released to HTNG members as they are created and placed in the public domain once the workgroup has completed its work. Products can be created by participating companies and/or by other interested companies who follow the specifications.
About HTNG Workgroups
HTNG workgroups provide a forum for a small but representative group of customers to work with a cross-disciplinary set of vendors to solve problems. Highly focused and structured, the workgroups are charged with identifying and building specific solutions that will deliver value to hotels, that no one vendor can deliver on their own, and that can be accomplished in about six months. Because customers drive the requirements, vendors have a ready market for the new capabilities they build, and customers no longer have to buy multiple systems piecemeal and integrate them themselves.
HTNG specifications are released to the public domain when the workgroup that produces them disbands, usually after no more than eighteen months. HTNG members, both hotels and technology vendors, can propose and sponsor new workgroups, and can apply to participate in workgroups sponsored by other members.
Workgroup Applications
Applications to participate in this workgroup will be accepted through February 8 from current or newly joining HTNG members. Information on the application process can be found at the Join a Workgroup page. HTNG's selection criteria, as well as the application process, are described at Forum & Workgroup Policies page. Applicants not selected to participate initially can apply to the workgroup after it is formed, and in any case will still have full opportunity to view proceedings and intermediate work product from the workgroup, as well as final specifications. Member technology vendors can develop product to those specifications and participate in HTNG-supported demonstrations. Applications for HTNG membership can be processed online at the Join page.

Fate's Edge
One thing that I have come to appreciate from Ilona Andrews books is that I just have so much fun while I'm reading them. Also, the worldbuilding is fantastic, so it really does feel like an escape from real life. This is the third book set in the Edge world, an actually very complex world, but I never felt lost as characters jumped from the Weird to the Edge to the Broken and back again.
If you haven't read any of the edge books, well, first you need to start with On the Edge. You also need to know that the Earth in this universe has the Broken - the nonmagical world that you and I live in. Then you have the Weird, a parallel world where magic is everywhere, in everything. You have Adrianglia, which is in a state of detente with Lousiana, and in book 3, we have the intro of West Egypt. In between is the Edge where magic still thrives, though not as easily as in the Weird. Filled with clannish, feuding families, they live a hard life. This time we travel to the West coast and get a sense of what the Edge is like in the pacific northwest.
We first met Kaldar, a snarky thief and Cerise's cousin, in Bayou Moon. The battle with the monstrous Hand has left him with a thirst for vengeance and a job with the Mirror, the Adrianglian secret service. His latest job is to find and recover an artifact stolen from West Egypt, and Louisiana's Hand is the likely culprit. The job was done by an expert thief, and it takes one to know one...
This brings us to Audrey, an expert grifter and lockpick. She is trying to live life on the straight and narrow. She just had to do this one little job for her no good family, and now the Hand and a very charming Mirror agent are after her. She and Kaldar are evenly matched. You know in Ocean's Eleven when all of the conmen get together and they know every con there is to know and play off each other - yep, this book has that feel in spades (and I love it, thieves are my weakness). Sparks fly, and the whole courtship and romance was very enjoyable.
Fate's Edge felt lighter to me than Bayou Moon. We still have horrifying villains and some seriously awesome fight scenes, but book 2 had a lot more monstrosity. This one felt the most like a Romance to me too. Books 1 and 2 had a strong romantic undercurrent, but this one even more so.
I also enjoyed all of the recurring characters, not just Kaldar. Gaston, George & Jack - these boys have grown a lot and most of my favorite moments involve one or more of them. Three scenes in particular: Gaston talking with Audrey about the "real" Kaldar, Gaston talking with Kaldar about Audrey, and George given his "tortured prince" spiel to Audrey. Golden moments. These kids belong in my List of Best Kid Sidekicks (and will be added soon - promise!).
There was one part where I was thinking to myself - "I love the cons and the elaborate schemes, but why aren't they just going in guns blazing," and right about this time it was answered in the book and it fit perfectly and gave more depth the hero. There's a very good reason Kaldar is the way he is, and Audrey is the way she is. It all felt natural.
Really looking forward to the next Edge adventures! (I believe we are getting at least one more - wonder who will be in it?)
Fate's Edge is out November 29.
[I received an advance readers copy of this book.]

D - I think you will love it!
I like this siteReplyDelete
I've read each book in this series & the violence is really getting to me. I like the books' environment & most of the characters, but the bad people are just too sadistic for me. I was hoping we were finished with this villain but it looks like we have two of the same vein now & they will continue to be in the series.ReplyDelete

brakes, start the sweep second hand on the clock. Next, switch the starter to "ON" (check
voltage for minimum of 10 volts, ignition light on, fuel pressure light out, oil pressure indicated
and monitor N1.)
When N1 reaches 12%, move the condition lever out of the FUEL OFF position to the "feather"
(FTHR) position. Monitor Interstage Turbine Temperature (ITT) and N1 for start indications
(light off). Periodically scan the lineman in case of a fire indication. A rise in ITT should be
indicated within ten seconds and should not exceed 925º for more than two seconds on light off.
Secure the starter switch when N1 reaches 60% RPM. Check the oil pressure for 40 psi
minimum and check N1 for 62-65%.
Idle RPM (N1) as low as 60% is acceptable, but should be reported
to Maintenance after the flight. Idle RPM above 65% (or below
60%) is a downing discrepancy.
Do not introduce fuel before N1 reaches 12% or if N1 begins to
decrease. Start attempts with a weak battery are likely to cause
over-temperature damage to the engine. Use a Ground Power Unit
(GPU) if the starter is unable to produce at least 12% N1 under
battery power.
If a GPU was used, signal the plane captain to disconnect it. Place the condition lever to full
increase (INCR) and indicate a normal start to the plane captain by giving a "thumbs-up." Check
only if the annunciator light remains on. Turn the inverter switch to number 2 then number 1,
checking the inverter annunciator light out in both positions. Remain on number 1 inverter.
When ready to taxi out of the chocks (wait for the attitude gyro "OFF" flag to disappear), hold
the brakes, release the parking brake by pushing the parking brake knob in, then signal the plane
captain to remove the chocks. When given the "release brakes" signal, smoothly release brake
pressure and allow the aircraft to move ahead slowly. When signaled, apply the brakes for a
brake check, then pass control of the aircraft to the instructor to complete a brake check and
follow the plane captain's signals for positioning the aircraft. Your instructor will then pass
control of the aircraft back to you and you will complete the Pre-Taxi Checklist (TW-5) or taxi
to the pre-taxi area (TW-4).
Beta should not be used in close proximity to ground personnel.
Watch lineman while chocks are being removed.

Department of Kinesiology
The purpose of the Kinesiology Department is to develop the minds and bodies of men and women in preparing them to become servant leaders in teaching, coaching, and other health- and sports-related fields. The Department of Kinesiology offers a program leading to a major in kinesiology with a general kinesiology, exercise science, or sport performance concentration. A major in sport management is also offered. A specialization in exercise science is recommended for those students who wish to pursue careers in corporate fitness, health club work, cardiac rehabilitation, physical therapy, and related areas. A major in sport management is recommended for those students who wish to pursue positions in a myriad of sports-related careers.
Teacher certification in EC-12 Physical Education is available to the kinesiology major. Certain general studies requirements differ for students seeking teacher certification. Therefore, those interested in teacher certification should consult the College of Education.
Kinesiology Activities Program
The Kinesiology Department is concerned with the total development of each individual student taking part in the kinesiology program. Of special concern is the development of an appreciation and respect for the human body as the earthly temple of God. Thus, becoming good stewards of this earthly temple is a major goal of the Department of Kinesiology. The goals of the physical activity requirement are twofold:
- The student will participate in organized exercise to offset the amount of time that is necessarily sedentary due to sitting in the classroom or studying. Thus, the student will attain or maintain a minimum amount of fitness, and the student will have an outlet for stress.
- The student will be exposed to physical activities that he/she will want to continue throughout life--as a social and emotional outlet and as a vehicle to fitness and total wellness.
Each student is required to register for two 1-credit-hour activity courses to complete the general studies requirement.* These required courses should be taken during the first and second years. Kinesiology and Sport Management majors are required to take 3 activity courses in addition to the general studies requirements. Juniors and seniors are encouraged to elect additional activity courses in order to maintain a healthy lifestyle and enjoy physical activity with their fellow students.
Kinesiology activity courses (KNES 1101 through 1127) are designed to emphasize the development of physical fitness and proficiency in team and lifetime sports. Students are encouraged to take activity classes that are unfamiliar to them in order to have a variety of activities from which to choose in their pursuit of a wellness lifestyle.
*The following are exceptions to the two 1-credit-hour general studies activity requirement, but do not reduce the total number of credit hours required for a degree:
- A student 25 years of age or older prior to enrollment at DBU will be exempt from required kinesiology courses.
- A student who presents adequate documentation of two years on active duty in any branch of U.S. military service will be exempt.
- Students with temporary or permanent physical limitations should seek advisement from the Kinesiology Department on course selection during their first semester on campus or soon after the physical limitation occurs.
- Members of the ROTC are exempt from kinesiology provided they have successfully completed MILS 0180 and 1142, pass the annual physical fitness test, and participate in the weekly physical fitness program.

Holders Spain moved to the brink of qualifying for next year's World Cup when captain Xavi and substitute Alvaro Negredo struck in a laboured 2-1 win at home to Belarus in Group I on Friday.
The victory lifted Vicente del Bosque's side three points clear of second-placed France with one match to play and a point against lowly Georgia in Albacete on Tuesday will secure the world and European champions a berth at the finals in Brazil.
Spain dominated against ultra-defensive Belarus,who are bottom of the group,but struggled to create clear chances until Xavi netted in the 61st minute with a powerful strike from the edge of the area that left goalkeeper Aleksandr Gutor rooted to the spot.
Centre back Sergio Ramos was the unlikely provider of the second goal 12 minutes from time when he found himself on the right wing and clipped over a perfect cross for Negredo to send a superb diving header low into the corner.
Sergei Kornilenko pulled a goal back for Belarus in the 89th minute from one of their few forays forward but it was nothing more than a consolation.
"We weren't effective enough with the final pass but in the end we got the win and it's a very important step towards the World Cup," Xavi told Telecinco television.
"Alvaro's goal gave us some breathing room and at the end the Belarus goal gave us a bit of a shock but it turned out fine. It's tough when teams shut up shop at the back with all 10 players in their half."
Xavi was captaining the side in the absence of goalkeeper Iker Casillas,who has fallen out of favour at his club Real Madrid and was replaced in the starting lineup by Barcelona's Victor Valdes.
Del Bosque also handed a debut to Michu but the Swansea City forward made little impact before being replaced by Negredo in the 57th minute.
Spain's clearest chance of an uninspiring first half fell to Negredo's Manchester City team mate David Silva when his shot from just outside the area was comfortably saved by Gutor.
Centre back Gerard Pique,who had earlier been booked for handling,rode his luck just before the break when the ball appeared to strike his arm in the area and the referee waved away Belarus claims for a penalty.
With most of Spain's attacks foundering against a massed defence,Del Bosque brought off left back Nacho Monreal at halftime and replaced him with playmaker Andres Iniesta.
The switch gave the home side even more control and Iniesta and Pedro,who scored a hat-trick in Spain's 4-0 win over Belarus in Minsk a year ago,added the width they had been missing in the first half.
"It was more or less as we were expecting and practically all our games follow a similar pattern," said Del Bosque. "We didn't have much penetration but the important thing was getting the three points.
"We still have one more game and we have to prepare effectively. The Georgians are going to make things tough for us too and we still haven't sealed qualification."
France,who are assured of a playoff place next month,play their final qualifier at home to Finland on Tuesday.

What is literary canon? How does literary canon relate to what is going on in society? Is traditional American literature multicultural? Literary canon is a classification of literature that is used to describe books or literature that is considered to be important of a time period or place. For writing to become canonized, it has to become widely respected by influential literary critics, scholars, teachers, and anyone that is respected in opinions and judgments regarding literary work.
A canonized piece of literature becomes very popular and is studied by students in thousand of classrooms around the world (Casey, 2009) Canonized literature reflects the norms or standards that society follows for a certain time period and location.
As society changes so does the type of literature that is canonized (Casey, 2009). For example the biggest topic that people are writing about now is the so called end of the world but about one hundred years ago it was about freedom and anti slavery.
In my opinion traditional American Literature is multicultural because the American population is a mixture of so many other cultures. The United States is a melting pot of cultures of the world and that is what makes the US so interesting. Please define "ethnic literature" and then indicate what you think the value is in studying it, in your opinion? What special challenges do ethnic writers have within the American literary experience? Ethnic literature is piece of writing that is written by people from different cultures, languages, or religion.
For example, Native American literature includes "memories of creation stories, the tragic wisdom of native ceremonies, trickster narratives, and the outcome of chance and other occurrences in the most diverse cultures in the world" (Vizenor, 1995, p. 1). People with the mix of Spanish, Native American, and African cultures have created Hispanic American literature (Kanellos, 1995). In my opinion, there are many reasons why ethnic literature should be studied. Reason One: When you read "true" literature writing from other religions, you can gain "true" understanding of what the religion is all about.
For example I'm a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. The LDS or Mormon Church as known by many is a very misunderstood religion. A study of "true" ethnic literature in this case would eliminate any misunderstanding that people have about the LDS Church. Reason Two: There are certain cultures that we do not know anything about and when we read about them, we will be able to understand why they do certain things. I want to call this cultural understanding. We have all heard the saying, "You can't judge a book by its cover.
" then we shouldn't judge a religion or a culture by the things they do until we understand why they do those things. How do ethnic writers define literature? How does that differ from the canon of traditional American literature? "Traditional" American literature and ethnic literature differ based on the back ground of the author. "Traditional" American literature is influenced by culture within the United States. Ethnic literature is influenced by culture outside of the United States.
The author Mark Twain comes to mind first because he is a talented American author that wrote The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and later Adventure of Huckleberry Finn. Both of these novel get their story lines and settings from Twain life and growing up in Hannibal Missouri. Twain based these novels culturally in the United States and not in another country. If Twain would have based these novels in another country they would be considered ethnic literature is stead of "traditional" literature. These novels would have been totally different based in another culture.
Life in the United States is far different then life in Africa or Nigeria. Parts of Africa are considered third world countries. Traditional America literature is based in the US. What historical, socio-political, and cultural topics might be covered by ethnic writers? How does this differ from the canon of traditional American literature? Slavery and Voting Rights are major topics covered by ethnic writers. How are the American literary themes of liberty, opportunity and equality addressed in ethnic literature?
American history is full of stories about liberty, opportunity, and equality for other ethnic groups. For example Blacks had to fight for the same freedoms that where give to Whites in the early years of our wonderful nation. Many novels where written trying to Early American standards where based around slavery and oppression but now they are based on freedoms like freedom of speech and press. America has been through many time periods that has shaped it into the wonderful nation that we have today. True American literature is about life in the United States.

|It is Friday, and I'm excited about our Mighty Men's Meeting being this weekend. I hope that God meets with us in a special way, and I'm sure that he will. Here are some thoughts from Jeremiah and the other chapters I read:
1) JUDGMENT ON BABYLON- Jeremiah 50:23 "How is the hammer of the whole earth cut asunder and broken! how is Babylon become a desolation among the nations!" Here we see Jeremiah pronouncing judgment upon Babylon and Jeremiah was a pre-exile prophet and an exile prophet. He passed a way shortly after the 70 year captivity had began, and God uses him to say that Babylon, the same nation he earlier pronounces has been given authority over all of the nations and beasts of God's creation, that now they will be destroyed. What is good for the Goose is good for the Gander. You see Israel was taken into captivity because of their sin, but when Belteshazzar sins by bringing the vessels of the temple into his drunken party and toast the gods of gold and silver; God judges the Babylonian empire just like He did the Israelites. Not only does God say they will be destroyed, but also tells who will destroy them! Jeremiah 51:11 "Make bright the arrows; gather the shields: the LORD hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: for his device is against Babylon, to destroy it; because it is the vengeance of the LORD, the vengeance of his temple." It was the Medes and the Persians who destroyed Babylon in one night!
THE SITUATION- Lam. 1:3 "Judah is gone into captivity"; Lam 1:5 "...her children are gone into captivity before the enemy."
THE SIN-Lam 1:8 "Jerusalem hath grievously sinned;" ; Lam 1:9 "Her filthiness is in her skirts;"
THE SADNESS- Lamentations 1:16 "For these things I weep; mine eye, mine eye runneth down with water, because the comforter that should relieve my soul is far from me: my children are desolate, because the enemy prevailed."
Lamentations 2:11 "Mine eyes do fail with tears, my bowels are troubled, my liver is poured upon the earth, for the destruction of the daughter of my people; because the children and the sucklings swoon in the streets of the city."
THE SHOCK-Lamentations 2:15 "All that pass by clap their hands at thee; they hiss and wag their head at the daughter of Jerusalem, saying, Is this the city that men call The perfection of beauty, The joy of the whole earth?" Lamentations 2:20-21 "Behold, O LORD, and consider to whom thou hast done this. Shall the women eat their fruit, and children of a span long? shall the priest and the prophet be slain in the sanctuary of the Lord? 21 The young and the old lie on the ground in the streets: my virgins and my young men are fallen by the sword; thou hast slain them in the day of thine anger; thou hast killed, and not pitied."
THE SOLUTION-Lamentations 3:40-41 "Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the LORD. 41 Let us lift up our heart with our hands unto God in the heavens."
*This is how I outlined the message of Lamentations. Well, I've got to go for today. Tomorrow, I may not be able to write because I will be up and going early for the Men's meeting. If I get to I will, if not... see you Sunday! Pastor Mike Mutchler

Very sad to see the $1,000 roundtrip business class fares disappear. Last flights are August 16th.

Last week, Alabama's newly-ascended Governor Kay Ivey signed a law that ended judicial override in Alabama. I will tell you what judicial override is in a moment. But first I want to share with you how we arrived at this bending toward justice moment.
People on death row are truly the least of the least of these. I have vigorously fought the unjustness of Alabama's death penalty for many years. I first introduced legislation to address this injustice in the year 2000. It proposed a three-year moratorium on all executions while the Alabama Legislature determined how to make capital punishment less infected by poverty, race, gender, inadequate legal representation, etc. I have introduced similar legislation virtually every year for 17 years. I have also introduced other legislation aimed at the unjustness of the death penalty. One of those bills would prevent what is known as judicial override. None of these bills passed.
Alabama was the only state still allowing a judge to override a jury's verdict of life imprisonment without parole to impose a sentence of death. Nearly one-fourth of the human beings on Alabama's death row are there by virtue of judicial override. In other words, after 12 citizens heard all the evidence in a death penalty case and rendered a verdict that called for life imprisonment without parole, a single judge could disregard the jury's verdict and impose the death penalty.
Theoretically, a judge could also set aside a sentence of death and impose life without parole. Judges rarely set aside the death penalty to impose life without parole and regularly set aside life-without-parole sentences to impose the death penalty. And it happened even more regularly when judges were facing reelection. A number of judges confidentially told me how much they wanted judicial override removed because district attorneys often waged media campaigns to set aside life without parole verdicts to impose the death penalty. These judges were caught between a rock and a hard place.
After introducing the judicial override bill 11 times over a period of 11 years, I saw the odds of passage as very long with a Republican-controlled legislature. Even after the U.S. Supreme Court struck down similar laws in other states, I still perceived passage as unlikely in Alabama. But new champions arose.
Senator Dick Brewbaker, a Republican from Montgomery, decided to introduce a similar judicial override bill. He asked if I would mind. I said that I did not mind, and I urged him to take the judicial override baton and run with it. Lo and behold, he ran well, carrying the judicial override baton (bill) through the Alabama Senate. Then Rep. Chris England, a Democrat from Tuscaloosa, ran well, carrying the judicial override baton (bill) through the Alabama House. Then Gov. Kay Ivey signed the bill into law.
In the 21st Century, the death penalty has become more and more unused in the United States and around the world. Few Western countries other than the United States have the death penalty. In 1996, there were 315 death sentences. In 2015 there were 30, a very dramatic drop. In fact, during 2016 only five of 50 states executed a human being. Just two states, Texas and Georgia, accounted for 80 percent of executions in 2016. Only five states executed anyone in 2016. Of the roughly 3,000 counties in the U.S., death sentences come from just 27. The death penalty, in large measure, depends upon the zip code. There has been a huge decrease in the death penalty from shortly after 1976, when the U.S Supreme Court reinstated the death penalty, to today. The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.
Over the last decade, the U.S. Supreme Court has limited the death penalty in various ways. Children can no longer be put to death. The mentally ill can no longer be put to death. Children can no longer be given life without parole. Judicial override can no longer be utilized. I introduced bills prohibiting all of these.
Now that the Alabama Legislature and the governor have declared that judicial override is unfair, unjust and unlawful, it is reasonable, fair and just that the sentences of those on death row because of judicial override now be changed to life without parole. I tried to put an amendment on another death penalty bill that would commute to life without parole the sentences of those on death row by virtue of judicial override. I was unsuccessful. I then introduced a bill to accomplish that goal. I expect a long, hard fight. I want to bend the arc just a little more toward justice. The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.
EPILOGUE – Sometimes it's hard to progress unless we look back over time. Too often we fail to see progress because we look just at the present or the immediate past. And when we look ahead, we see more problems than progress. Every now and then we have to look at the long arc of the moral universe.

Check out more photos from this outing in our Photo Gallery!
The Bastrop Outing got TWFF off to an educational good start. The tying classes were excellent thanks to Coco Davenport, Pam Vestal, and feature fly tier, Martin Pursch. Coco and Pam did a wonderful job of getting all of us "newbies" started out on the right foot. With our newfound ability we were able to follow along with Mr. Pursch on some flies that were just a tad more sophisticated.
I personally came home with 5 flies I tied myself. I have always been a die-hard fan of buying flies or just sweet-talking Ronnie Ray into tying up whatever I needed. I have never been a fan of small close work such as sewing etc. I was in for a wonderful surprise through the first minutes of Coco Davenport's classes. My expectation was that I would be unable to handle all those things happening at once—but I did. Coco systematically (don't forget calmly) took us through steps whereby I produced my first real fly. The next day I saw a zip lock bag of flies on the shelf in the kitchen area. I started asking people if they belonged to them and no one claimed them. They were mine! I couldn't believe that flies that looked that good actually belonged to me. I hope everyone experienced the same level of satisfaction that I did. I think there were approx. 15+ of our women that participated in the classes. Texas Parks and Wildlife's, Ann Miller–Education Coordinator, was responsible for lending TWFF the tying kits. If you get a chance, let Ann know we appreciate her and TPWD's efforts in helping us.
Mr. Pursch began his class by explaining to us a bit about how fly fishing works in regards to flies. He explained in depth the meaning of "matching the hatch." He explained the different groups of flies such as dry flies, wet flies, emergents, nymphs, etc. with the aid of handouts to make it visually as clear as possible. As he instructed a couple of tables of ladies tying flies he kept us all together using his dry erase board. This really was a good tool by which we could all understand what was next and if we had done it correctly. He is a great guy and a good teacher and if you ever get a chance to take classes from him you will be pleased. Check out his store and information at www.flyfishingintexas.com/pages/TheFlyShop.html
As announced, Ronnie Ray held beginning casting classes. Several "casters" braved the wet and cold weather to learn the basics of the fly rod and reel. He explained how to assemble the components to get ready to cast and then the dynamics and technique of a good cast. We hope those new "casters" will return to more outings to put those skills to work in catching fish. I promise the next step is a lot more enjoyable. Once again thank TPWD's Ann Miller for the use of the fly rods.
A handful of folks went to the trout lake to fish. It seems that the weather, the fish and some marine floatation devices refused to cooperate.
Saturday evening's catered meal consisted of Lasagna and trimmings. Steve Robbins, our scheduled speaker for the evening, had to cancel due to being ill with the flu. His wife, Ann, called on Friday evening indicating Steve had been sick starting Thursday. He thought perhaps he might feel better and make it Saturday, but he just didn't get better in time for us to hear his "Top Twenty-Five Trout Streams of America" presentation. Many thanks to Ronnie Ray for pulling my "fat out of the fire" once again by pinch hitting and giving his presentation on kayaking and fishing the Colorado River. You're the best!!
On Sunday, the board meeting was held just around the corner from the park at Audrey Ambrose's property. Sarah Valentine cooked up some fine grilled carnivorous wonders. These grilled-to-perfection delights were accompanied by a beautiful "work of art" salad by Sheila Hood. Thank-you all for a great lunch. Audrey Ambrose brought her mom to our cookout/meeting. It was a pleasure for our members to meet her, and for me, to see her again. The meeting held that day gets the award for the best meeting since the beginning of TWFF in my humble opinion. There was so much accomplished. In addition to accomplishments, it was fun and easy and essentially fast considering some of the meetings of the past. Anybody remember those four-hour meetings? Thanks to all in attendance for your vision, excitement, willingness to volunteer, and shear good heartedness to help our club and others through fly fishing.

Can you help? Meeting Room Required
We are looking for a new venue to hold our quarterly trustee meetings. We have been fortunate to have had access to a centrally located office in central London for many years. Unfortunately, they are no longer able to accommodate us. Does your organisation have a meeting room which can comfortably hold up to 15 people? If so, would you consider letting the Ménière's Society use the meeting room four times a year? Please get in touch if you think you can help - email Natasha or phone us on 01306 876883.

Every year, around February to March, some young teen girls find themselves in a frenzy as one of the biggest events of their high school years approaches. This is especially true for many senior high school girls about to graduate as it is literally the last dance. Those girls who have not picked out a dress, shoes, and hairstyle since early fall are now in a mad rush to find the best prom looks available. For those young women looking for great prom hairstyles, there are many sources for finding the hot look for Spring, the upcoming Summer look, or even retro prom hairstyles. This article should help young girls gather information quickly about great prom hairstyles.
When it comes to a prom hairstyle, the main idea is a formal hairstyle or a retro one that fits a gala like the prom or other big social event. That is why girls who have not selected a hairstyle should definitely watch the Academy Awards in March. Major celebrities attending the even will definitely be sporting some of the hottest and elegant hairstyles that might just work with the rest of your prom attire, which is a very quick way to grab some prom hairstyle ideas.
The next best source for finding that great prom hairstyle is in the many magazines that probably came out late January or early February with prom special issues. These magazines are designed especially for prom goers including models sporting many different looks on many types of dresses. These magazines provide a variety of looks which should help you chose a prom hairstyle. Popular magazines that are very useful in providing different hairstyles with different dresses and different facial shapes include YM, Teen, and Seventeen. All three of these magazines provide an abundance of hairstyles and other useful prom tips and are great sources to keep for younger siblings or friends.
For webbies who love using the internet, there are almost boundless resources out there from websites to guides all about prom hairstyles. A popular site I found that was actually useful was promspot.com which had some useful tips on prom hairstyles. Another quick way to find prom hairstyles, is to use popular search engine image search features for the term 'prom hairstyles'. This is a very useful resource as it pulls many hairstyle images of the web from various sources. These sources include everything from magazine images to photos from prom goers who have posted their picture on various websites. All these images provide a great amount of possible prom hairstyles. Other useful keywords for image search include 'formal hairstyles', 'wedding hairstyles', 'teen prom', and a lot more. This feature has become one of the more useful ways at finding prom hairstyles.
Last Minute Search Tips
Many girls go with the normal elegant style dresses and hairstyles. Don't be afraid to go with the retro styles. There are many classic retro style dresses and hairstyles that are great for proms and will make for a memorable evening. I am not talking way back, but there are some retro hairstyles that can me modernized a little to provide a very beautiful, unique look.
Adding Accessories to Prom Hairstyles
I recommend not going with any jewelry type accessories for hairstyles unless necessary. There are many hairstyles that are great without any accessories, and then there are a few updos and other styles that look great with tiaras, clips, and other little add-ons that add to the overall look. There are many hair accessory stores with great little hair add-ons so look around.
