The Pros of Prom Weekend
Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
Prom is known as a very expensive, yet memorable night. For most people prom is the night to remember, for me prom weekend was more memorable than prom itself.
Prom weekend is about going away with friends and having a lot of fun. A good way to look at it is one last weekend experience with your best friends.
Prom itself is fun don't get me wrong, however it is swarming with adults and rules. At least for prom weekend adults are usually not around and you can be responsible for yourself like the adult everyone expects you to be. Some groups go down the shore and others go up the mountains. Usually a landlord is around since you are under the age of 25, however they don't hover like a parent would. They allow you to enjoy yourself and do your own thing without being destructive or disruptive.
Prom is also very expensive, everyone stresses out over the crazy price. The weekend following can also be expensive depending on the place you stay, however it is like a celebration that the stress from prom itself is over. Also sometimes people cannot find a date to prom, so prom weekend is perfect for that person. It isn't about dates and stuff like that it,it is about the group as a whole having a good time together.
If considering having a prom weekend, remember that it is one last big celebrations together as good friends. Everyone is there to have fun and to have the best possible experience together. Prom itself is fun and worth the experience also, however prom weekend is better in my opinion.

Dani Sordo holds the lead of Rally Mexico 2018 following Friday's action, with the returning champion Sebastien Loeb closing in on the Spaniard's Hyundai after a dramatic Friday loop
Last years winner Kris Meeke hit the front of the field initially on Friday, and looked set to chase down his second consecutive victory in Meixco, the Citroen C3 handling much better than the 2017 edition and very much to his liking again in Mexico. But Meek was left to rue his choice of two hard tires as back to back wins on the El Chocolate and Ortega stages saw Sordo vault into the lead and dropped Meeke to second, as Loeb established himself in third place on his return to the WRC. But later in the day Sordo saw his lead slashed from over 16 seconds to just under 8 going into Saturday.
Loeb secured his first stage win since Rallye Monte Carlo 2015 on El Chocolate 2, and spins for both Meeke and Toyota driver Ott Tanak aided the Frenchman's cause. Tanak managed to place himself into third despite his spin and Toyota having to turn off the anti-lag system on its cars, ahead of Meeke and is only 11 seconds behind Sordo so is still very much in the hunt for the victory over the weekend. Meeke meanwhile is 25 seconds back from Sordo so will most likely be looking to reclaim third from Tanak. Sebastien Ogier has had a very quiet run of things so far and lies 25 seconds behind the lead in fifth, feeling that running second on the road has been a major disadvantage for himself. He was lucky however, as the Friday stages gave a lot of the WRC field a real bruising.
Elfyn Evans has withdrawn from the event after co-driver Daniel Barritt suffered a concussion following a high speed roll for the pair on the Ortega stage. Both are fine and the car is driveable, but on medical grounds they have withdrawn from the rest of the event, continuing a miserable 2018 so far for Evans and Barritt. Championship leader Thierry Neuville has suffered both a less of fuel pressure and power steering, and when he tried to fix the former by opening the door to gain access to the fuel bypass valve behind his seat, the door came slamming shut onto his arm and badly bruising it. He sits seventh and with a real mountain to climb ahead of him. The other two Toyota's of Esapekka Lappi and Jari-Matti Latvala have also had a torrid time. Lappi had an off on SS7 and failed to complete the stage whilst Latvala retired following SS8 when his alternator failed. He will however return for Saturday's stages.

Ok, the TLC is running like a cylinder is dead, but I disconnected a couple of connectors(injector or spark, not sure on this motor)... and it still runs the same. I can't imagine there's two or more that aren't firing, but I suppose that's possible.
Any ideas how to track this down?

Since the normal mortgage holder once in a while purchases more than one carport entryway (and some of them never at any point need to do that), at that point realizing what's in store amid the establishment procedure can a dubious affair. Be that as it may, it doesn't need to be a staggering or troublesome. All things considered, the greatest piece of the carport entryway establishment process is the choice of the entryway. When that piece is cultivated, at that point the establishment part is up to the carport entryway organization. https://www.thedeluxedoor.com/garage-door-installation.html
Nonetheless, on the off chance that you are the kind of property holder who likes to be completely educated about each component of your home – and there's nothing amiss with that! – at that point chances are you have a few inquiries or worries about the carport entryway establishment process. Here are a few things to remember as you start the way toward choosing a carport entryway and understanding the establishment procedure.
On the off chance that you are thinking about putting your home available, refreshing your carport door(s) is an incredible method to include esteem and check advance.
In the event that the entryway is over 10 years of age, it might be a great opportunity to consider getting another one as mechanical issues are almost certain and the opener itself probably won't function also.
The more seasoned your entryway gets, the almost certain it will be boisterous when opening/shutting.
The wellbeing highlights that are regular in new entryway opener plans, were not the standard on more established frameworks.
You have to comprehend the sorts of openers accessible on the present market. The most well-known are chain drives, belt drives, jackshift drives, and screw drives. The calmest of these is the jackshift which is mounted to the divider, instead of roof, while the most intense is the screw drive openers which work with a steel pole and a trolley.
Remember that the entryway doesn't do the real lifting. Thusly, it is imperative that the group that does your establishment, is completely guaranteed and authorized for the work with the goal that you can make certain it will work legitimately.
Set aside opportunity to take a gander at the different highlights of the diverse sorts of carport entryway openers. From having the capacity to open them through an application to having a battery reinforcement or a remote and keyless passage that doesn't require a coxcomb of any kind, there are numerous decisions – past simply thinking about the sort of entryway and measure of protection.
When you have figured out which sort of entryway you need, don't endeavor to cut expenses by doing the establishment as an end of the week DIY venture. Converse with a carport entryway establishment group and calendar an arrangement.

This year's musical "The Pirate Queen" is based on on the life and adventures of the 16th century Irish chieftain and pirate Gráinne O'Malley, who was one of the last Irish clan leaders to resist the English conquest of Gaelic Ireland. The story is a swashbuckling affair that sees Grace progress from stubborn teen to spectacular Queen through a trail of passion, heartbreak and adventure. As her story unfolds we travel with her from the wilds of Ireland's West across the surging Atlantic to the hazards of the English court. We see her grow through her love for her father, her passion for the warrior Tiernan, her fierce loyalty to her clan and her hatred and respect for the English Queen. The personalities are larger than life, the action is non-stop, the waves are big and the ballads are huge!
Our annual musical is a culmination of many hours of hard work and team effort undertaken by staff, students, parents/guardians and the whole school community. The privilege of coordinating the planning and production of this musical lies with the 2017-2018 Transition Year group.
The acting, singing, music, costumes and spectacular sets – all are the work of students, as are the posters, artwork, ticket sales and budgeting. The Music, Art, Drama and IT departments have all contributed to the multi- faceted, multi-talented show that is "The Pirate Queen".
I congratulate the cast and all those both on and off stage, who are the stars of the show. I pay particular tribute to our musical director Ms. Gemma Magner and to our stage director Ms. Carolyn O' Flaherty for the time, work and encouragement they have contributed to this wonderful show.
To our loyal sponsors and to all who assist with stewarding, make-up, costumes, music, sound and lighting, we are truly grateful. To the teachers, senior prefects, caretaking and secretarial staff, Parents' Association, Board of Management, Bandon Gardaí and all who co-operated in the smooth running of all the performances your contribution is beyond measure. To the parents/guardians who supported the students in any way a sincere thank you.
Many thanks to all involved.
Finally, to our audiences, your support is much appreciated.

Progeny Press is one of those companies that I found when I first started homeschooling. I probably have more than a dozen of their study guides in my collection now, from the old-fashioned paperback versions to my favorites the E-Guides. In fact, I have reviewed Progeny Press several times right here on the blog! This time around we got to use Indian in the Cupboard E-Guide, which is great, since several of my kids have read and love that book!
Progeny Press study guides are absolutely, hands-down some of the best study guides out there. They are so well-organized and so easy to use. They each follow a similar format, but they all take into account the specifics of the books for which they were written. In this way, you always know what to expect, but you also know that the study guide is actually written specifically for your book. It's never a case of questions just being popped into a template as can be the case with some study guides. For The Indian in the Cupboard, the study guide format is as follows:
- Book Synopsis
- About the Author
- Background Information
- Ideas for Prereading Activities
- For Each Group of Chapters, a selection of the following:
- Vocabulary
- Characterization
- Short Answer Recall Questions
- Point of View
- Thinking About the Story (Comprehension Questions)
- Dig Deeper (questions that tie the story to the Bible and a Biblical Worldview)
- Writing Project
Because the format is an interactive e-book, all your student has to do is type the answers directly into the PDF. It could not be any easier! If you have a
lazy efficient student like my Nicholas (nearly 13), this is absolutely the ideal format for a study guide! Nicky loves to read the book, and he doesn't even really mind talking about it, but he has yet to see the benefit of doing any kind of formal literary analysis. Thank goodness for Progeny Press and their interactive guides.
Nicholas and Progeny Press
Because Nicholas is not my biggest reader (which doesn't really say much - compared to a lot of my friends' kids, he's a huge reader), I wanted a study guide for a book he'd already read. That way, there wouldn't be a ton of pressure to read the book. It would be more about experiencing the study guide. He needs help on developing his literary analysis chops, and I figured he could do that just as well with a book he'd already read. Plus, as a family we already have a great literature program that we love, so I didn't really want to take away focus from that. Basically, I gave Nicky the guide on the laptop and asked him to review the pertinent chapters (so, Chapters 1&2 to start) and then complete that part of the guide for that week.
That has worked really well. He has the book to use for reference when he needs it.
The Dig Deeper section will be very attractive to some users as it uses Biblical passages to make the books under study more relevant for Christians.
As for us, we will continue to use Progeny Press study guides in a variety of ways. Whether it is for books my children have already read, as in this case, or for books they are reading for the first time, these remain our study guides of choice. Whether you have high schoolers reading Great Expectations, or children in elementary school reading Mr. Popper's Penguins, Progeny Press has you covered. Be sure to click the banner below to read all of the reviews!

Blinding trachoma expected to be eliminated in Uganda by 2020
The Trust is delighted that its Trachoma Initiative in Uganda will now fully eliminate blinding trachoma in the nation by the year 2020.
Since beginning work in Uganda in 2014, the Trust's Trachoma Initiative has trained over 40 surgeons and treated over 22,000 people who suffer from blinding trachoma. Along with our partners, we have also trained over 3,300 case finders to locate those who are in need of treatment to save their vision.
The United Kingdom's Department for International Development's Global Trachoma Mapping Project has now indicated that such significant progress towards eliminating trachoma in the African nation has been made that the disease can be eliminated within the Trust's lifespan.
With the support of the Lions Clubs International Foundation, we are working with the Government of Uganda and our partners from the International Coalition for Trachoma Control to implement the SAFE Strategy – Surgery for trichiasis, Antibiotics, Facial cleanliness, and Environmental improvement – in trachoma-endemic regions of Uganda.
Trachoma affects people's ability to look after themselves and their family, undertake many forms of work and simply see their loved ones. It is also incredibly painful for sufferers, as with every blink their eyelashes scrape the surface of the eye.
The Trust's Trachoma Initiative is working to fully eliminate blinding trachoma in seven Commonwealth countries, including Uganda, by 2020, and is seeking to achieve significant progress towards elimination in four more.
On the news that blinding trachoma can be fully eliminated in Uganda within the Trust's lifetime, Dr Astrid Bonfield CBE, Chief Executive of the Trust, said:
We are truly delighted that the goal of full elimination of blinding trachoma in Uganda is within our reach. The Global Trachoma Mapping Project, led by the Department for International Development, has demonstrated the progress that has been made towards elimination in Uganda. We are committed to working with partners to ensure that this success continues. A trachoma-free Uganda would improve the lives of so many, and will serve as a fitting tribute to Her Majesty The Queen.

Ferry waits slow holiday travellers
Dec 28 2011
Vehicles pour into B.C. Ferries' Swartz Bay terminal Dec. 27, 2011, in what has become an annual tradition of post-Christmas lineups.Photograph by: Bruce Stotesbury, Times Colonist
Three-sailing waits held up holiday travellers on B.C. Ferries Tuesday, but there was little indication of an increase in commercial vehicles heading through Swartz Bay.
Passengers aiming for the 11 a.m. vessel from Swartz Bay had a single sailing wait and Departure Bay in Nanaimo had similar delays. By afternoon, there were three-sailing waits between Tsawwassen and Swartz Bay, dropping to two and one sailing by late afternoon and evening. Many sailings were behind schedule by about 20 minutes and B.C. Ferries cited traffic delays.
The waits were close to typical for this time of year, though Tuesday's traffic might be slightly higher than normal, a B.C. Ferries spokesman said. The corporation added two vessels and about eight sailings for each of the main terminals on Vancouver Island and the Lower Mainland.
Commercial vehicle traffic was low amid expectations that it would increase because Duke Point terminal is closed for repairs after Coastal Inspiration crashed into the berth last week.
B.C. Ferries offered a 50 per cent fare discount between Tsawwassen and Swartz Bay to divert oversized vehicles from Departure Bay, which has taken on Duke Point's sailings. The discount applied on Tuesday and will be offered again Jan. 3.
"You just never know what people will do from year to year," said B.C. Ferries spokesman Darin Guenette.
B.C. Ferries commercial services staff reviewed several years of data when they picked Dec. 27 and Jan. 3 to offer a reduced rate, Guenette said.
In Nanaimo on Monday, traffic was backed up for two sailings in addition to an afternoon vessel being behind schedule. Lineups returned to normal by 3 p.m. On Tuesday, the waits were up to two sailings. throughout the afternoon.
Holiday travellers were taking the lineups in their stride. Lea Campo was one of the passengers who missed the 11 a.m. sailing because the ferry was full. "We made a reservation last year and made it with no trouble, so this year we didn't bother. I guess we should have," she said.
By mid-afternoon, traffic for the Swartz Bay ferry to Tsawwassen was backed up past the Wain Road interchange.

Mornings are nice to wander around and watch the sun rise over the water.
The sun appearing through the Opera House windows makes it look a little evil.
The clouds made for a pretty sunrise this morning.
Now that it's spring, there are also a lot of joggers around the harbour enjoying the cooler mornings and beautiful sunrises.

"Sanctuary" law will make Texans less secure, less safe
Earlier this year, I sat in the Texas Capitol listening to a daughter of immigrant parents testify against Senate Bill 4, the state's new anti-sanctuary law. She expressed her deep fear and sadness at legislators' intent to tear her family apart. Not two weeks later, I became a parent myself. The thought of being permanently separated from my daughter is a nightmare I cannot imagine.
I've spent my adult life working to make my hometown of Houston more welcoming to individuals and families of all backgrounds. My own life is emblematic of the city's diversity: My father is a Greek immigrant who came to Houston for college, where he met my fourth-generation Texan mother. After graduating from Rice, I started a nonprofit for refugee youth, and now I lead programs that provide legal assistance and business training to immigrants and entrepreneurs, regardless of their background. My wife Christina and I speak Greek and Spanish to our daughter, Mina, to help introduce her to the wealth of diversity our community has to offer.
Gov. Greg Abbott recently signed SB 4 into law. Its stated purpose is to make communities safer, but in practice, it targets and terrorizes immigrants who simply seek better opportunities for themselves and their families.
The new law will allow local law enforcement and other government officials to inquire about a person's immigration status during unrelated interactions. We already have good laws on the books that are tough on undocumented immigrants who commit serious crimes. This law turns every interaction with a government official into a potential cause for deportation. Pulled over by the police on an unfounded suspicion? Need to pay your water bill? These and other scenarios could lead to deportation.
I was proud to submit testimony against SB 4 at the Texas Capitol, where I highlighted three of its many flaws. First, it compromises safety and security by diverting law enforcement resources from fighting crime to doing the work of federal immigration officials. It also makes immigrants less likely to trust law enforcement officials or report crimes. Houston Police Department Chief Art Acevedo and Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez have expressed concerns about how such measures hurt our communities.
Second, it will separate Texas families. Deporting parents of U.S. citizens will leave families in limbo and painfully disrupt the lives of kids across the state.
Finally, this law ignores immigrants' contributions to our region's economic growth. In 2014, immigrant-owned businesses generated $7.9 billion in business income in Texas, and immigrants paid nearly $9 billion in taxes, with spending power of nearly $90 billion. This law will shrink our economy, hurting all of us.
I'm proud to be a Houstonian. Instead of complaining, Houstonians roll up our sleeves and create solutions, setting an example for other localities nationwide. Last summer, Mayor Sylvester Turner asked me to help lead the Welcoming Houston Task Force, which created a community plan to make our city more welcoming to immigrants and others.
Now I'm urging local law enforcement officials and concerned citizens across our great state to fight SB 4 and other measures meant to divide us. In Houston and across Texas, we are at our best when we embrace our diversity and welcome those who are eager to contribute to the cultural and economic fabric of our community.

That was amazing
And in that place is probably more to come. But obstacle me catch you up on the kind of has happened.
The protests were marvellous to watch. They are ongoing. But I plan they have been something to report. Because:
They were peaceful. People marched, chanted. let their frustration be known. There was not at all looting, rioting, injuries, or anything of the like. There were more agitators, but in the facebook messages there were clear calls to avoid and ignore the agitators. So the protesters ignored. Not in such a manner much the police. Overall, in whatever degree, no problems. Most of the time you speak a policeman rush into the lower classes was when a protester would timid or something like that. Most striking, on the facebook page for the National Police, in that place was a thank you to the protesters because being so peaceful. And President Iohannis actually met with the main protest assign places to in the Piata Universitate for relative to 20 minutes, interviewing them. I am strong he would not have done that if the situation was unsafe. All in every part of, I think it became clear that the protesters were in that place to prove a point, not enterprise trouble.
They had clear ideas of the kind of they wanted. They didn't uncorrupt march around spewing hate. As celebrated in the previous blog, they came with concrete ideas. Like implementing a canon that the government was politely ignoring. Very focused.
And, ~ dint of. all appearances, very successful. One of the might demands was an apolitical government. Something some said couldn't be done. What Iohannis did was hostile incursion the EU government in Brussels, and the Universities. Tried to win people who really know what they are talking near. Let me give you a lacking run-down:
Prime Minister: Dacian Ciolos–was the EU Commissioner concerning Agriculture under the last EU presidency. Has a PhD in agronomic engineering and rural development for the University of Montpelier in France. In a rough who is real breadbasket for Europe and the terraqueous globe.
Foreign Minister: Bogdan Aurescu–course of conduct diplomat, has been foreign minister as far as concerns about a year.
Defense Minister: Mihnea Motoc–was direction negotiator for Romania in joining NATO, persistent representative of Romania to the EU and envoy to the UK
Agriculture: Mihail Dumitru–anterior minister, economics professor
Interior: Dan Dungaciu–Sociology professor, investigation scientist with collaboration in various countries including Max Planck Institure in Germany and the Research Triangle Center in North Carolina. Also advises the Moldovan President in c~tinuance reunification with Romania, an issue that has newly heated up
European Funds: Marius Nica–8 month incumbent, hold both an MBA and a Master's of Public Administration. Has worked in the Defense, Environment, and Social Services Departments
Health: Sorin Paveliu–Professor of Pharmacology and Medicine, too associated with Romania Curata (Clean Romania), undivided of the protest groups
Finance: Daniela Gheorghe–Director of Resources, EU Budget Office
Transportation: Sorin Moisa–Member of the European Parliament
Economy and Energy: Tudor Constantinescu–Adviser to EU Energy Directorate
Justice: Laura Stefan–Anti-wickedness work, Expert Forum (an NGO)
Education: Sorin Campeanu–current intermediate time Prime Minister, President of the University of Bucuresti and President of the Romanian Association of University Presidents
What a clump, eh? Looks more like a who's who than a ministry roster.
And please notice that in that place are 10 ministers as opposed to the 21 in the previous government. Talk encircling less government. Interest now is steady reducing Parliament from 535 members to 300, with only one chamber. No senate.
If all goes well, this government will in conclusion until the regularly scheduled Parliamentary elections up~ the body 16 December 2016. This gives a small scale over a year for the current parties to complete their house (or most probably acquire massacred in the election) and in spite of the protesters to organize their recognize party and field the necessary candidates to get the compliance of Parliament. Then they can represent whatever system they want.
But, it is ~y early and there is much in addition to be done. More protests are scheduled to stay pressure on the government. The massive one will be on December 1, Romania's tantamount to the 4th of July. Some estimates are that there may be up to 100,000 population in the streets across the rural.
I am very hopeful that the whole of will turn out for the superlatively good. More about why in the next post.
Valentine's Day is the perfect opportunity to pamper.

So, my sock isn't done yet. Yesterday turned into a lot of cookie baking and grocery shopping, not so much knitting. My book isn't here either BUT check out this beautiful wool!……..
It's Mirasol Hacho, 100% peruvian hand dyed wool and I couldn't help myself. The skeins are only 137 yards and I had to try two colours because it's impossible to choose! I think I'm going to try it in gloves.

At the surface of the eye, infections occur via breaks in the surface mucin barrier or through the mucin barrier. Examples of the first are Staphylococcus aureus (SA) or Streptococcus pneumoniae (SPE) (encapsulated) keratitis that occurs as the result of epithelial surface damage from trauma. Other types of infection, e.g., outbreaks of bacterial conjunctivitis from non-encapsulated Streptococcus pneumoniae (SPN), occur without evidence of ocular surface damage. Most studies of host-pathogen interactions have used models that involve the physical induction of epithelial damage prior to infection, allowing a pathogen to cross the apical mucosal mucin barrier. In contrast, there is limited understanding of how the mucin barrier can be manipulated or compromised directly by epidemic-causing pathogens to facilitate infection. We propose to compare how SA, SPE (opportunistic organisms), and nontypeable, non-encapsulated SPN (organisms capable of causing epidemic conjunctivitis in the absence of known or suspected ocular surface trauma), interact with and affect membrane-associated mucins to gain access to epithelial cells. Studies will use corneal and conjunctival epithelial cell lines expressing apically the glycosylated membrane-associated mucins found in native epithelia (MUC1, 4 and 16) and 3 clinical isolates-SA, SPE, and SPN-all derived from ocular surface infections.
Our Specific Aims are:
Aim I : Compare ectodomain release, cell surface density and glycosylation characteristics of MAMs MUC1, MUC4 and MUC16 on human corneal and conjunctival epithelial cells, in response to culture with the two opportunistic bacteria, SA and encapsulated SP, and the epidemic-causing non-encapsulated strain of SP, and their exoproducts.
Aim II : Determine the mechanism by which non-encapsulated SP exoproducts induce release of the membrane mucin MUC16.
Aim III : Determine the extent to which membrane mucins present an obstacle to bacteria or their exoproducts to reach the epithelial surface membrane by comparing (1) cytopathic effects and internalization rates for SA and the SP strains into control human corneal-limbal epithelial (HCLE) cells, and into HCLE cells in which MAM expression is abrogated by siRNA, or in which glycosylation of mucins is blocked, and (2) by comparing effects of SA, SPE, or SPN, or their exoproducts on expression of stress-induced cytokines IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-? by HCLE cells and in HCLE cells in which MAM expression is abrogated or in which glycosylation of the mucins is altered.
Aim I V: Determine if the three types of bacteria bind to specific released mucins, MUCs 1, 4 and 16, and/or secreted goblet cell mucin MUC5AC present in the tear film, and whether such binding acts as a protective mechanism, preventing adhesion to HCLE cells in control, membrane-associated mucin knockdown or deglycosylated mucin conditions
Infection remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, and most infections originate at a mucosal boundary-the mucosal surface of the respiratory tract, gastrointestinal tract, urogenital tract or the eye. Mucins on the wet-surfaced mucosa are hypothesized to provide a barrier against continuous exposure to trillions of microbes, and preliminary data from our laboratory indicate that, of the two types of mucins on these epithelia, secreted or membrane associated, it is the membrane-associated mucins integral to surface membranes that form this cellular barrier. The research proposed in this application will provide new information about how bacteria that cause epidemic conjunctivitis are more capable of crossing the membrane mucin barrier than are the opportunistic pathogens and, in doing so, will provide clues for treatment alternatives.

Case Keenum is the name most people think of when the University of Houston football team is mentioned. That's probably because Keenum, a junior, plays the glamor position of quarterback.
He was the 2008 Conference USA Offensive Player of the Year. He threw for 5,020 yards last season while tossing 44 touchdowns. Keenum's the one who has to make the proper reads and find the right receivers, but as much as Keenum deserves the accolades (he's on the media watch list for the 2009 Davey O'Brien Award which goes to the country's top college quarterback), he can't do it all on his own.
"All of that doesn't happen without the offensive line. When they go we go," Keenum said during the Coogs' media day. "It comes down first to the offensive line, and if they're not working together, meshing, [playing] as a team, then we can't really get anywhere without them."
The offensive line is led by senior center Carl Barnett, who is on the media watch list for the Remington Award which goes to the best college lineman. And Barnett and his teammates take tremendous pride in their ability to keep Keenum free of pressure from onrushing defenders.
"It makes us feel good," Barnett said. "It feels like we're giving him time to make plays and to be the quarterback that he is because he's a high-caliber quarterback....And up front we're really happy about that, and we're trying our best so that he can get that [Davey O'Brien Award]."
The Cougar offensive line does more than just pass block. The line is also first-rate when it comes to run blocking. Last year, freshman running back Bryce Beall became the first freshman in school history to rush for a thousand yards in season. He had six 100-yard-plus rushing games, and five straight games with at least one rushing TD. And Barnett claims that it's the ability of the Coogs to be able to both run and pass that led to their success last season.
"It's real good that we have both options [passing and running] because we can keep teams off guard," Barnett said. "We have a great quarterback, but [other teams have to] just know that we have a running back, too, that can tear up the field....The O-line, we work real hard on different schemes that will make it easy for ourselves to make plays and make holes for them."

Then there's sophomore wide receiver Tryon Carrier who last year set freshman team records with 80 receptions and 1,026 receiving yards while catching nine TD passes from Keenum. Carrier, who is on the 2009 media watch list for the Biletnikoff Award that goes to the nation's best receiver, reminds us that the spread offense receiver doesn't just run to a set spot and wait for the ball. Instead, they have to make reads off a various players and then make the proper reactions, all the while hoping that Keenum not only sees the same thing that they do, but that Keenum also reacts the same way that they do.
"You've got to deal with what's first," Carrier said about running a play. "So basically you're looking at the defense, trying to see what coverage they're showing. When the ball's snapped, most defenses don't show it right off the jump, they move into a certain position when the ball is snapped. My first read is the linebacker, to see where he's going. If I get around him, then I'm eyeing the safety. And then if I see the safety dropping back, or if he comes up close, then I blow past him. It's those two guys for me, the linebacker and the safety."
Carrier even jokes that he and Keenum have some kind of psychic connection: "It's crazy. We laughed about that a couple of times last year. I did a route that wasn't even what I was supposed to do, and as soon as I turned my head the ball was there," Carrier said. Then he got serious. "Both of us watch the same film, and we both talk about what we're doing in certain situations."
As for what the Cougars are expecting from this year, Keenum sums it up simply: "The whole season just kind of takes care of itself." This matches what head coach Kevin Sumlin repeated throughout media day: the only game that matters is the game being played that week. The implication being that that game-to-game focus will lead the team to the Conference USA championship and a bowl game.

This year across the eastern U.S. the winter has been mild and spring conditions are arriving early. Many trees and grasses are flowering two to three weeks ahead of schedule. The winter-weary among us may relish the unexpected warmth. But according to Dr. Donald Leopold, chair of the Department of Environmental and Forest Biology at SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry in Syracuse, NY, as quoted in an article on the Science Daily website, ″When the weather is really altered from typical conditions, there are always winners and losers among all types of both plants and animals.″
Who might the losers be? Allergy sufferers for one. Many spring blooming trees, such as willows, maples, aspens, elms, and poplars, and grasses are several weeks ahead of their normal schedule, which portends a longer and more intense allergy season. (Pictured are red maple flowers already in bloom in Vermont.)
Another concern is what can happen if the warmth doesn't last. If a spell of seasonably cold weather returns, the over-eager flowers on fruit and other trees may be damaged or killed, with the consequent loss of the fruits that would have followed. Apple and other fruit growers are nervously awaiting what temperature fluctuations are in store. But the impact extends to wildlife as well, if the fruits of trees they depend on for food fail to develop.

The Miami Dolphins are back. Well, sort of almost back. It's that training-camp time of year again, a time when optimism and hype are as high as the South Florida sun is hot.
Though the Dolphins are reportedly planning to move soon from the Nova Southeastern fields they've called home since the mid-'90s, for now all the magic still happens out in Davie. To get you geared up and ready for practices that will soon be open to the public, here's a handy-dandy guide for everything Miami Dolphins Training Camp 2018.
Welcome back, football — we've been expecting you.
I'm new here: Where are these Miami Dolphins practices you speak of?
No worries! We've got you covered. Fins practices take place at Baptist Health Training Facility at Nova Southeastern University, located at 7500 SW 30th St. in Davie. It's right off University Drive. You can't miss it.
Parking is on the second floor inside the library garage. The fee is $1 per hour. Enter from the east entrance or they'll arrest you. Just kidding — they won't arrest you, but you will be shamed and asked to do it the right way.
How do I know which practices are open to the public?
Boom: Click this link right here and you shall receive that information. Things get started July 26. Unlike back in the day, before the internet existed and your dad and Uncle Hal drove you to camp, these days you need to RSVP online to reserve a seat. Miami Dolphins practices: Very exclusive. VERY limited.
Where are the seats?
Think of Dolphins practices like the movies: First come, first served. If you want a seat in the shade, get there early. If you don't get there early, bring a towel so you don't burn your entire ass. It'll happen. You're allowed to bring seat cushions or bleacher seats or any other sort of butt stuff.
What can't I bring inside practices?
Well, you can't bring your horse or dining room table. There are a lot of things you can't bring. No alcohol is the one you're probably wondering about. Also, no guns or weapons. This is not the place for your Chinese stars.
Oddly, the Dolphins make it clear they can kick you out for wearing distracting clothing. That probably means shiny stuff. Just be normal. Also, they say no drones. NO DRONES, 2018 IS SO CRAY. As far as bags are concerned, it's the same as game days: No bags unless they're those tiny clear things. You can use a ziplock bag like a weirdo if you really need to.
Can I bring my camera?
This is tricky: The Dolphins don't want you to steal their super-top-secret plays, so nothing outside a phone or a camera with a lens smaller than eight inches is OK.
Oh, phones are cool, though? Good, I wanna fire off some hot tweets.
NOPE! There is no Twitter in this Miami Dolphins dojo. YOU CAN'T EVEN TEXT PEOPLE because of Miami Dolphins secrets. Basically, it's North Korea up in this bitch.
You come, you sit, you watch. No "transmission of data," the Dolphins
Geesh! Where can I smoke?
At home! There is no smoking at the Dolphins' practice facility. The Fins support a family-friendly environment, which is why they fired a coach for snorting cocaine in his office last year. That really happened.
Is there a concession stand? Can I bring food?
You can't bring food, but you can eat before you arrive because the Dolphins are not the boss of you. It's tradition for fans to eat at Laspadas Hoagies in Davie after practice, but if you plan to eat while you're there, the Fins say concession stands will sell breakfast food and drinks.
What if it rains?
You need to know this before you come: Dolphins practices have been known to be moved indoors at the last second, even as fans sit in the stands waiting to watch. The Fins have an indoor practice bubble for a reason, and they aren't going to risk injury so you can get an autograph from the second-string long snapper.

Wait, we can get autographs?
Yup. If you can get your hands through a fence and a player stops, you can get a signature. Per the Dolphins, autographs are most likely to be obtained along the west fence for ten minutes following practice. Got a kid? You need to sign up right when you arrive for your child to get an autograph. Look for a table. The Dolphins say players will sign for up to 100 kids under the age of 12.
Anything else we should know before we head out to a practice?
Have fun. Dolphins practices are a time where "Super Bowl! Super Bowl!" chants are common and the hype over a seventh-round pick is insane. Don't expect to see a scrimmage. Much of the time, you'll be watching dudes stretching and drinking water out of really cool-looking water machines.
Keep an eye out for famous people. You never know who's in town and out getting an up-close tour. David Beckham, Dwayne Johnson, or Jennifer Lopez could be right in front of you on the sidelines. You never know.
Most important, let the kids enjoy it. This is probably the closest they'll ever get to players. Bring an autograph book they'll keep in their closet until they have their own kids. Grab a program and point out players. Don't be negative — there will be plenty of time for that every Sunday in the fall. Have fun. Football is back!

LONDON (Reuters) - A group of bondholders in Britain's Co-operative Bank has put forward an alternative plan for filling the lender's 1.5 billion-pound capital hole, seeking a bigger equity stake than proposed by the Co-op in its rescue plan.
Co-op Bank has 4.7 million customers but hit trouble after racking up big losses on commercial property. In June the Co-op Group, parent of Co-op Bank, unveiled a plan to raise the money from asset sales, bank loans and slicing the value of bonds: the first plan to attempt to force bondholders to bail out a bank rather than taxpayers.
On Monday a group of bondholders, advised by investment bank Moelis & Co., said it had submitted a different recapitalisation plan to Co-op Bank's board of directors on behalf of institutions owning about 43 percent of the bank's lower Tier 2 bonds.
Its proposal, a debt-for-equity swap, attempts to squeeze better terms out of Co-op Group and potentially give bondholders majority ownership of the bank.
Under the Co-op's plan, the Co-op Bank CPBB_p.L would be publicly listed with Co-op Group as the majority shareholder and bondholders owning a minority.
"Bondholders are basically crystallising what they said before, which is that they want a bigger equity stake in Co-op," said a London-based portfolio manager.
Co-op Group declined to give an immediate comment.
The group of bondholders includes two U.S. hedge funds, Aurelius Capital and Silver Point Capital. They are reported to have built up large enough positions on tranches of Co-op Bank's debt to block the deal proposed by Co-op Group.
Co-op Group has said there is "no Plan B" to its proposal, and warned if bondholders do not agree the plan the bank could be nationalised and leave investors with nothing. Bondholders need to approve the plan by the end of October.
The Moelis & Co group of bondholders said it could plug the capital gap by the end of this year, mainly by converting subordinated bonds and preferred stock into Bank common stock. Co-op Bank has about 1.3 billion pounds of bonds outstanding.
The group - which was formed in June and has more than 60 billion pounds of assets under management - called on Co-op Bank's board and advisers to "engage in immediate and substantive discussions" with it.
Two people with direct knowledge of the matter said Co-op Group had expressed a willingness to meet, but the bondholder group only wanted to negotiate with Co-op Bank executives.
The bondholder group said after its proposed debt-for-equity swap, any capital shortfall would be small and could be raised from a cash investment by Co-op Group, debt investors or outside third parties, and it would be willing to provide the cash.

A leading Cumbrian tourism business says its self-catering business has grown by a third in just 12 months.
The owners of the 40 acre Lingholm Estate near Keswick say accommodation bookings are up by 35 per cent compared to the same period in the previous year.
It follows major investment since the end of 2017, to bring the number of self-catering properties available to visitors to 11.
It includes Rosetrees, a Victorian house split over eight levels which was designed by prominent Victorian architect Alfred Waterhouse.
The main Lingholm Mansion also recently unveiled the transformation of its showpiece Derwentwater apartment, which is the estate's most ambitious renovation to date.
Meanwhile, the final stage of an ambitious plan to transform a once derelict Boathouse overlooking Derwentwater is now nearing completion and will be available to visitors from April.
David Seymour, owner of the Lingholm Estate, said: "Looking back over the last 12 months, we are feeling very positive about the steady growth and development of our self-catering business.
"We were even full in some of the traditionally quieter months, like November, which does indicate that there is a real appetite for staycations at the moment.
"The boathouse, which is set to be a contemporary architectural feature on the lakeshore.
"The intricate work needed to preserve the shoreline's natural beauty means it has been a complex piece of construction.
"It's an exciting project and something we've been working towards since we took over the estate just over five years ago.
"We want it to be a truly special building which will stand the test of time."

The sculpture's two left panels contain four sections of encoded text.
The two right panels are meant to help decrypt the encoded text on the left side.
The first section reads:
"Between subtle shading and the absence of light lies the nuance of iqlusion."
The second section includes a reference (
WW) to William Webster, a former director of the Central Intelligence Agency:
"It was totally invisible. How's that possible? They used the earth's magnetic field. x The information was gathered and transmitted undergruund to an unknown location. x Does Langley know about this? They should: it's buried out there somewhere. x Who knows the exact location? Only WW. This was his last message. x Thirty eight degrees fifty seven minutes six point five seconds north, seventy seven degrees eight minutes forty four seconds west. x Layer two."
The third section recounts Howard Carter's description of finding Tutankhamun's tomb:
"Slowly, desparatly slowly, the remains of passage debris that encumbered the lower part of the doorway was removed. With trembling hands I made a tiny breach in the upper left hand corner and then, widening the hole a little, I inserted the candle and peered in. The hot air escaping from the chamber caused the flame to flicker, but presently details of the room within emerged from the mist. x Can you see anything q?"
Despite many attempts to decrypt it, the final section of the Kryptos sculpture remains unsolved.
Jim Sanborn, the sculptor, told The New York Times in 2010 that the 64th to 69th characters, which read
NYPVTT, will read
BERLIN when decoded.
This week, Mr. Sanborn gave the Times a second clue: the 70th through 74th positions, which read
MZFPK, will read
CLOCK when decoded.

Pesto graduates are pre-vetted, pre-trained and ready to start work immediately.
Pesto is not a learn to code bootcamp. Our students quit their software engineering jobs to join our training program. Our typical student has a CS degree and multiple years of work experience prior to starting training.
We screen tens of thousands of applicants and accept less than 1% into our program. Accepted candidates fly to our training center where we work with them intensely for 3 months. We not only verify their technical skills but also their integrity. We won't graduate any student who doesn't meet our standards for technical skills and quality of character.
We are a school, not a staffing agency. Pesto engineers operate as dedicated remote team members. You are their boss, not us. We can help with payroll and compliance but once you hire a Pesto engineer, we get out of the way and let you two get to work.
The best talent wants to work at the best companies. Students join Pesto because they want to work in global tech teams solving hard problems. They look at engineering as their art form and have a passion for continuously improving their craft.
On-boarding a new remote team member can be tricky. Pesto engineers are trained on how to be effective remote employees. They are taught how to on-board themselves onto new teams and will even fully timezone match your core team to get started.
We have developed an India specific curriculum that focuses on soft skills and bridging cultural gaps. Pesto engineers understand US work culture, making it easy to communicate and align on expectations.
We are a school for elite engineers, not a recruiting company. We don't limit our graduates' employment opportunities by charging hiring partners.
Working with Pesto has been a series of high expectations which have each been exceptionally met. Any reservations I had about working with a remote engineer have been dutifully laid to rest by the remarkable quality of the engineer that we hired from Pesto, Bharani.
Nikhil is one of the best employees one could have ever hoped for. He's incredibly smart and talented (technical ninja) and works amazingly with other people. He has the mindset of a champion and really embodies that to the core. Sucks up any information and feedback instantly and crushes any work given to him. An insane pleasure to work with him.
We provide full-stack hiring infrastructure to make hiring Pesto engineers fast and easy. Hire a single engineer directly or build your new India engineering hub.

My favorite way to enjoy this very flavorful sauce is ladled over a plate of freshly steamed (or boiled) assorted vegetables (such as potatoes, broccoli, cauliflower, red pepper, green beans, yellow summer squash, Brussels sprouts, corn, carrots). Two or three of the ingredients may look unusual, but they are staples in my kitchen. Once they are on hand, this sauce can be made in as little as 5 minutes -- while the vegetables cook. It makes a wonderful one-dish meal - with protein provided by the nuts. I will try to take a photo one of these days for you to add to the recipe.
1 cup raw cashews or almonds
1/3 cup instant clear jel
1/2 cup nutritional yeast flakes
1/4 cup natural peanut butter
1/4 cup yellow mustard
1/2 sweet onion, coarsely chopped
4 thin slices fresh jalapeño pepper, seeded (or to taste)
2 cloves fresh garlic (or to taste)
2 teaspoons salt
1/8 teaspoon citric acid (look for this in the canning section)
2 1/2 to 3 cups water (enough to obtain desired consistency)
Combine all ingredients in a blender; blend until velvety smooth.
Serve cold sauce over hot vegetables.
Refrigerate unused sauce in an airtight container; will keep for several days.

Once a year, Americans gather around the table to celebrate family, turkey, and football. Hosting a Thanksgiving dinner is no frugal affair, however. Turkeys aren't cheap, nor are all of the fixings and the décor. It also seems like there's never enough time to get everything done, entertain family and friends, and also enjoy the holiday for yourself. So how can you manage this event without busting your budget and your sanity?
Delegate Thanksgiving Duties
One way to keep stress and costs down is to spread the responsibilities around. Ask family and friends to bring a single side dish or salad, taking some of the cooking duties off of your plate. You'll pay for fewer groceries this way, as you'll only need to buy the turkey. It's also a great way to blend family traditions – ask your guests to bring a dish that they loved growing up so that you can get a taste of their childhoods.
Take Inventory of Ingredients
If you're cooking the bulk of the meal, first take inventory of what you already have in your pantry. You don't want to buy something that you already own, like maybe dried herbs that you bought for last year's turkey. Do some research, check sales, and see what kind of swaps would be cheaper at the grocery store. For example, perhaps frozen green beans would be cheaper than canned, or a store-brand turkey might be cheaper than a more expensive brand.
Only Buy What You Need
Another way to keep food costs down is to make sure you only buy what you need. If you're only cooking for a few people, you don't need an entire turkey. Buy just the breast instead, and as an extra bonus, it won't take as long to cook. With only a few people at the dinner table, you won't need more than a few sides to feed everyone. Stick to the basics – mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, and an easy vegetable like roasted carrots.
Borrow Supplies From Friends
Don't go out and buy furniture or dishware for the event. Instead, turn to friends and neighbors and see what you can borrow. Friends who are going out of town are an excellent source of borrowed goods, as you know they won't be home or need anything on Thanksgiving Day. For a cohesive theme, ask to borrow only white dishes and serving platters, keeping the dining table monochromatic and elegant. Just make sure you thoroughly clean and return everything in a prompt manner.
Create a Signature Thanksgiving Cocktail
Instead of spending money on lots of liquor options, create one specialty cocktail that you can make ahead of time. Sangria or alcoholic punch is easy and affordable. You can also serve one red wine and one white wine only – you want your guests to enjoy their meal, and not get too tipsy. An even better budget bonus, any unopened bottles can be given as gifts for the upcoming holidays. Buying wines in bulk can also be cheaper than buying single bottles at a time – check with your local liquor store to see if they offer any discounts.
Use Your Thanksgiving Leftovers
If you're hosting guests overnight, Thanksgiving dinner leftovers can be transformed to a chic and delicious post-Turkey Day brunch that's also easy on the wallet. Use cold mashed potatoes to make potato pancakes or gnocchi. Turkey can be diced and combined with leftover roasted potatoes and onions for a satisfying turkey hash. Leftover sweet potatoes can be blended with chicken broth and cream for a luxurious sweet potato bisque. Cube up leftover dinner rolls and turn into a savory or sweet bread pudding. Are there carrots and celery left from the veggie tray? Chop the remaining crudité and transform into a tasty stir fry. The possibilities are endless!
Most importantly, this is a day to reflect and be thankful for what you have. Struggling with debt can put a damper on the holiday season, but taking steps to reduce credit card debt can relieve stress and make this time of year much easier on you and your family.

Nothing complicated. Just a blanket for Frankie's crate. US 15 needles, cast on 100 stitches and knit until it was long enough. I used Red Heart Super Saver held doubled. I really don't like Red Heart at all, but it's suitable for a dog.
I also finished one of the legwarmers for my mom. I'm about 1/8 of the way through the 2nd one.
