For you lovers of classic children's adventure tales and stories of pirates here's a bit of news!
The British satelite TV company Sky1 released news this summer that they will producing an adaptation of Moonfleet!
"We are delighted to announce the commission of Moonfleet, a new family drama adapted in two parts from the classic John Meade Falkner story.
The programme was greenlit by Anne Mensah, Sky's Head of Drama, and will be produced by the award-winning Company Pictures. The scripts have been written by Ashley Pharoah (Life On Mars, Ashes to Ashes).
Filming will commence later this year on this much loved adventure set in the small Dorset village of Moonfleet. In the story young John Trenchard is haunted by dreams of the legendary Blackbeard and captivated by the whereabouts of his fabled diamond. Desperate to join the local band of smugglers, a turn of events unites him with Elzevir, the leader of the gang. Together they embark on a danger-filled adventure to locate Blackbeard's most treasured possession.
Mensah commented: "Moonfleet is one of those unusual classic titles which people have heard of but that hasn't been done to death. This allows us to make it feel unique to Sky, to please people who grew up with the story but also to bring in a new generation of viewers who might not be so familiar with the text. And of course it is going to be a Sky drama so expect big action as well as smugglers, fights, ghosts, diamond hunting and a father/son story which should totally and unashamedly capture your heart. Huge thanks to Company Pictures and Ashley Pharoah for bringing such a fantastic story to life for us".
Charlie Pattinson, Executive Producer, Company Pictures, said: "Moonfleet is a wonderful action adventure story – driven by smuggling raids, shipwrecks and a warm hearted love story. We are delighted to be working with Sky again and share their ambition to produce this well loved story on an epic scale."
Further production and casting details will be unveiled in due course.
Moonfleet will be shown exclusively on Sky 1 HD and Sky 1 in 2013"

In the vein of Treasure Island, Kidnapped, Masterman Ready and Robinson Crusoe, Moonfleet by J. Meade Falkner is an adventure book that my mom read aloud to me and my siblings when we were younger. There's some heart pounding moments - one in particular where young John Trenchard hides in the crypt below the church and gets locked in there! - and a fun heartwarming story. I've always thought it would make a great film and am so pleased that someone is bringing this lesser known work to life! And if the two part film turns out anything like Sky1's Treasure Island (2012) then I know it's going to be great! :-)
Have you heard of Moonfleet before?
Do you have any favorite classic adventure stories you think might make good movies?

So what's the preferred way of doing this? - change source code to not use internal av_*() functions (e.g. av_abort()) which are protected by HAVE_AV_CONFIG_H, but use system functions (e.g. abort()) instead - unprotect any such functions and allow applications to use them I can send a patch either way, but would prefer to not have to do it twice...

Our Denver Chiropractor has been helping people in Denver for almost 20 years, and he can probably help you, too. If your neck or lower back has bothered you, you are actually in the majority. Eight out of ten adults will experience neck and/or low back problems at some time in their lives. Most symptoms are blamed on poor muscle tone, muscle tension, spasms, ligament or muscle tears, and joint problems.
In the past individuals have subjected themselves to prolonged bed rest, uncomfortable traction, heavy sedation, injections, and surgery. But there is a safer, more natural approach to healing the back: Chiropractic care.
What Is Chiropractic?
Doctors of Chiropractic medicine (D.C.s) adjust the spine with easy, manual thrusts to move the spinal vertebrae back to their normal positions. A chiropractor will sometimes also adjust the joints of the neck, arms, and legs. Spinal adjustments may relieve a spectrum of ailments such as neck pain, back pain, headaches, certain types of migraines, arm, hand, and leg pain that's due to dysfunction of the neck or lower back.
Dr. Glenn Hyman takes chiropractic care a step further, with a more modern approach to chiropractic care known as Active Release Techniques soft tissue treatment. We also combine this with on-site exercise rehabilitation. Research shows that chiropractic care, combined with soft tissue work AND rehab offers the best patient results.
What Happens during a Chiropractic Examination?
A chiropractor will take a medical history, conduct physical, neurological, and orthopedic examinations. Chiropractic physicians spend time examining the spine and any other painful regions, testing reflexes, joint motion, and muscle strength. If the doctor believes that X-Rays are appropriate for your case, he will tell you so.
What Training Do Chiropractors Have?
Chiropractors are licensed in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. A rigorous course of study is necessary to receive a degree of Doctor of Chiropractic (D.C.). According to Chiropractic Truth, there are over 60,000 D.C.s practicing in the United States. All state licensing boards require two to four years of undergraduate education, and completion of a four-year chiropractic college course. Dr. Hyman has extensive post-graduate training in Active Release Techniques as well.
What Type of Treatment Plan will the doctor recommend?
At Dr. Glenn Hyman's Denver Chiropractic Center, we don't recommend long term treatment plans. We always start with short term treatment (6-12 visits), and see how you respond. Frequently, we offer second opinions to patients who've been told by other chiropractors that they need 30, 60, or even 100 visits!

The University Classroom Oversight Committee (UCOC) is a collaborative group of CAS, CAPS/GS, and Seminary faculty and administrators working with the Registrar and representatives from Facilities Management, and Teaching, Learning, and Technology to set and maintain standards for classroom design, layout, and equipment; the committee also serves an advisory role in decisions about classroom capacity and assignment, as well as expectations for classroom use. The committee monitors the quality and functionality of all university classrooms, and makes recommendations for improvements and renovations. Furthermore, the committee also coordinates with the Registrar and Room Scheduling to make decisions about unusual classroom assignments and/or special use. In addition, the committee collaborates with colleagues in Faculty Development in order to align pedagogical practice with pedagogical space.
Current Membership
Ongoing Classroom Assessment
The UCOC is participating in an ongoing beta test of Educause's Learning Space Rating System as a way to make informed decisions about future classroom development and upgrades. This standardized classroom assessment process allows Bethel to respond well to local needs while still considering broadly accepted higher education standards and trends.
Classroom Standards
The UCOC has developed a list of standards (pdf) that endorses specific recommendations about room capacity (i.e., square footage/student) made by consultants from Credo as part of the Bethel University campus master plan adopted by the Board of Trustees in 2011. The standards document also establishes best practice design principles, recommends appropriate technology, and describes appropriate furniture.
While drawing on the Credo report, the committee also consulted classroom design guides or manuals from several other educational institutions, including:
- Arizona State University
- Emory College
- University of Minnsota
- Yale University
Committee members also read several articles and book chapters, among them:
- "Enhancing Student Success Through Principled Space Planning and Interior Design."
- William Dittoe, "Learning Spaces and Student Success."
- Herman Miller, Inc., Paradigm Shift: How Higher Education is Improving Learning (2010).
- "Innovation Enters the Classroom." Education (Fall 2010).
- Diane G. Oblinger, ed., Learning Spaces (Educause, 2006).
In addition:
- A series of focus groups with current Bethel faculty from CAS, CAPS/GS, and the Seminary were held.
- Committee members attended a Society for College and University Planning (SCUP) conference entitled "Learning Spaces: Planning and Executing Active Learning Spaces."
- Several members of the committee also made site visits to classrooms and instructional spaces at the University of Minnesota and the University of St. Thomas.

In response to my blog posts from Monday and Tuesday this week, I received an email from an academic librarian who said that although she agrees with me "philosophically," she needs realistic help! She asked:
Post by Molly Schwartz, Associate Fellow, R Street Institute
Is it legal for me to publish a blog post with this title? Am I violating copyright law? I am, after all, reusing lyrics from the chorus of a popular Beatles song. The recognizability and cultural resonance of the lyrics is exactly what makes it an appealing title for me to use.
Not Sorry for Certiorari: 7th Circuit breaks from trend of prioritizing "transformative use" in fair use defense to copyright infringement
Jessica Vosgerchian is a 3L at Harvard Law School and a Copyright Fellow for the Harvard Office for Scholarly Communication. She has worked on copyright issues in the public and private sectors.
Last September, the Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit diverged from the judicial trend of treating "transformative use" as the most important element in the test to determine whether a defendant's use of another's work was fair, and so not infringement under the Copyright Act. In Kienitz v. Sconnie Nation LLC, 766 F.3d 756 (7th Cir. 2014) (Kienitz II), the Court affirmed the lower court's holding that the defendants' manipulation of a photo for a t-shirt design constituted fair use but employed a different interpretation of the fair use test.

Playing drums for fun

Various drumming styles e.g. Latin and Jazz
Frequently asked questions
How do I know when my child is old enough to learn the drums?
We are able to teach children as young as 4 years old but it can depend on how long any child is able to concentrate. Music lessons for younger pupils are only 20 minutes long but this increases as their attention span does. The majority of lessons for the very young pupils involve more games and challenges than a pure focus on music tuition. If you would like to have a chat about how ready your child is the get in touch.
How do the lessons work?
The first lesson is very much about the teacher getting to know the pupil and understanding what level they are at and what kind of lesson will suit them best. The teacher will then choose the best learning materials for each child and the lesson format going forward. The focus is always on enjoyment, all Discover & Be music and academic lessons are about learning in a fun, positive and constructive environment.
How long are drum lessons and how much do they cost?
Music lessons run in term-time only and fees are payable half-termly in advance.
20 minutes (optional for 5 years and under)
30 minutes (standard lesson length for primary aged children)
45 minutes (optional for more advanced pupils)
1 hour (standard lesson length for secondary aged children and adults)
*Please contact us regarding lesson fees.
How do I know which music books to buy?
The teacher will recommend the books that best suit the pupil. They will then agree the purchse with the parent or guardian and the amount will be added to the next invoice.
About our Drum Teacher - Josh
Josh has been playing the drums since the age of eight. His teachers at primary school noticed his talent and love for music early on. Josh's passion for drumming continued to grow throughout secondary school as he played drums for the school's theatre productions. At 15, Josh released his first album with his band. One of the songs was used by the BBC for the closing credits of the 2011 University Boat Race.
Josh continued his musical studies at college where he developed a love for teaching. He took his ABRSM grade 5 music theory exam and later began to teach the syllabus to peers. Alongside this, Josh taught 1:1 drum lessons for primary school children.
During this time Josh was also assisting the music department at a school for young people with special needs. He says: "This was a humbling experience which furthered my appreciation of the importance personalised teaching approaches have. I'm very thankful for my time at the school."
Josh now attends the University of Brighton where he's studying for a BA (Hons) in Music. Whilst at University, Josh has played drums for function bands at venues across southern England. He's also accompanied various choirs and has played in the orchestra pit for numerous theatre productions; highlights include Dolly Parton's 9 - 5, Little Shop of Horrors and Carrie: The Musical.
In 2016, Josh was fortunate enough to sit in with drummer Dave Elliot on Charlie and the Chocolate Factory during its time in the West End.
Although drums are Josh's first instrument, he also plays piano and enjoys composing. Josh uploads most of his compositions onto SoundCloud where he's received over 100,000 plays to date. His music has been used in projects around the world, most recently having a composition used by a student of the Victoria University in Wellington, New Zealand.
On completion of Josh's BA (Hons) in Music he intends to continue his musical education and study a Masters degree in Music and Sonic Media at the University of Sussex.
ALL Discover and Be tutors are DBS/CRB checked; this is renewed on an annual basis.
If you are looking for a drum teacher East Sussex or West Sussex then get in touch today to find out more or book lessons for your child.

THE DOCTOR IS ALSO A COUNCILOR. Dr. Julian Dayrit Dycaico, as a young medical graduate of the University of the Philippines in 1914.
During the peacetime period, Angeles was home to many prominent men in the medical profession like Drs. Conrado M. Manankil, Juan S. Tablante, Celestino L. Henson and Antonio L. Lazatin. To this list, we add the name of Dr. Julian D. Dycaico, who, not only became a noted physician, but also a government official and a school co-founder.
The multi-tasking doctor was born in Culiat on 16 October 1888, to Jose Dycaico and Rufina Dayrit. He was first schooled at the local Colegio de Ntra. Sra. Del Rosario (1896-98), then finished high school at San Fernando, Pampanga (1903-05).
Julian then hied off to Manila for his college education at the Philippine Normal School (1906-1909), before enrolling at the College of Liberal Arts of the University of the Philippines (1909-11), preparatory to his medical course at the same school.
He earned his medical degree from the U.P. College of Medicine and Surgery in 1914, and joined Philippine General Hospital as an Intern from 1914-15. He became a full-fledged medico-cirujano and started his private practice back in his hometown of Angeles, operating his clinic right in his residence. A member of good standing of the Philippine Island Medical Association, he was also accepted as a member of the American Medical Association.
In 1919, at age 31, he married local lass Lourdes P. Gomez, daughter of Esteban Gomez with Josefa Pamintuan (Incidentally, Esteban was the eldest child of the Spanish priest, Fray Guillermo Masnou OSA with Patricia Mercado). He was ten years her senior. They had nine children: Armin Lorenzo, Adaljisa, Jovita Violeta, Jacinta Yolanda, Jose, Julian Remigio, Maria Lourdes Judith, Lazaro and Perla Epigmeña.
Julian pursued his many interests even as he became successful in his private practice; he served as a consejal municipal of Angeles town, and in 1934, joined his relative, Don Juan Nepomuceno in founding and organizing Holy Angel Academy, as its Comptroller and School Physician. He lived and worked according to his motto: "Magaral mayap at paipagal caibat" (Study hard, toil hard), for he assumed many roles in his life: doctor, husband, father, government and school official. Julian passed away on 11 March 1965, at age 77.

Former WWE Champion Ultimate Warrior posted a video yesterday on YouTube calling out Hulk Hogan in response to comments he made about him in a recent interview with HDNet. The Founding Father of Ring Intensity warns Hogan that he will be revealing truths about him in a video post later this week.
Regarding Hogan, Warrior said, "Hey Terry, I found that bullet man. You know that bullet you were talking about in that sitdown interview when you said, "Ultimate Warrior was given a bullet to kill Hulkamania." I found it. I found it buried, real deep, inside that huge piece of real estate I still own inside your psyche.
"You know Terry, you're a real piece of work man, just beautiful in every way. Things you said in that sit-down interview… you know the dots of the statements that you made… and the silly-ass clichés that you used, they just don't connect man. Someone's gotta set the record straight. Someone capable. Someone wise enough to do it. And I'm going to do that. I'm going to set the record straight and paint the picture of who you truly are.
"Karma's coming to collect, Terry. Karma's coming to collect, big time."

balance itself out remind you that life cannot be perfect.
My daughters, I know they are not perfect, but they are beautiful and talented in their own ways and they are doing the best they can in school. They are weird and funny and inappropriate most the time and I love them for it.
I have a boyfriend who brings me flowers once a week and rarely lets me pay for dinner. When my vacuum breaks and he can't fix it (and he can fix mostly everything) he brings one to my house and tells me it fell off the back of a vacuum truck, then proceeds to vacuum half my house to check it out.
The work I do at my day job is awesome. I get to write and be creative and work part time so I can also write and be creative at home and try to continue to work on my goals of becoming a full time fiction writer some day.
I live in a lovely home, in a quiet neighborhood with a big yard, close to the girl's school.
Yes, that is all good. But then there are faulty memories and car accidents in life. There are delicate situations handled improperly by people who are supposed to care. There are those who do not know when to shut their mouths and leave well enough alone and those who do not speak up when they should.
Balance. The Yin and Yang of life. It's necessary I suppose. Without it, what would we
be? A bunch of vapid, wastes of oxygen with no personality or purpose?
The balance, the struggles, the hard stuff, it challenges us, molds us, gives us character. I've faced many struggles in life and I wouldn't be who I am today without them, and I kind of like the me I am right now.
Also, adversity, it is a test of our strength. How much can we take? How much are we willing to take for the ones we care about, because sometimes the challenge isn't about us, sometimes it's in the name of our parent, child, or a complete stranger. Sometimes we have to be strong for someone else.
I'm not really a religious person, but all this reminds me of a quote from Mother Theresa:
So, I say bring it world. I thank you for all the good things I have, but I'm ready for the challenges too. I've been through worse. I've felt pain, I've seen death, I've hit rock bottom. It may be hard, I may cry, I may yell, but I'm pretty sure I can handle anything that comes my way.

text: Technical Article Browsers Getting Faster Updated 03-Sep-2008•Originally posted on 03-Sep-2008 by Dawn Parzych 122 article us There are two browsers currently in beta that begin to address some of the issues that make web sites slow, Microsoft IE 8 and Google Chrome. I admit I have installed both of these browsers but haven't had much time to play with them to see how much performance improvement is achievable. Both browsers include performance enhancements with the downloading of external scripts. Previously browsers would only download one external script at a time since these scripts need to be executed sequentially. Needing to execute a script sequentially doesn't necessarily mean that they can't be download in parallel. For sites with a large number of external scripts this improvement can significantly improve the page load time. IE 8 is increasing the default number of connections per host from 2 to 6. The browser still makes connections to up to 3 different hosts which results in a staggering total of 18 connections. An analysis of the impact 18 connections has on page downloads and possibly hosting providers was conducted by Ryan Breen of Ajaxperformance. I have yet to test Google Chrome to determine what the default connections are and if this is configurable. It is still early days with these browsers but these enhancements seem to be a step in the right direction. 0 Ratings Log in to rate this content Print Download Share

The upload is under way but is likely to take some hours, and may have to be interupted. It should certainly be complete by Tuesday morning, but between now and then I expect I'll have to deal with a glitch or two ;-)
It will be quite a large set. I got out just ahead of the first riders but had to be back at base for strapping duties after two hours, so I stayed in the front part of the trail, walking out and back to ensure I got photos of all competitors. Apart from a few riders who made a course error and never passed me (I saw their disappearing backs in the distance ;-) I got pretty much everyone.
After final vetting for my connections I got out on the trail again, but with most riders leading their horses down the long final hill it didn't seem worth leaving the Control Area (well, that's my excuse) where all riders should at least be mounted.
As it worked out, I saw quite a few of the earlier starters several times on the course when they were coming back through for their second loop as I was returning to the base, and then again the Intermediates and Opens were finishing their rides while I was on my second sortie. Consequently, a large set.
And, in all other respects a very successful event - we were a little lucky with the weather, but a cool day is usually very good for the heart rates and is always welcome at Brights by the horses - the hill climbs are long and strenuous, but the extra time allowed ensured that the ride was feasible.
We're now looking forward to Maymorn, and keeping fingers crossed for fine weather.
Hope to see you all there.

At the same time I became very interested in all things spiritual with a main focus on NDE'S. 9/11 was the catapult for my true awakening as it was for so many others. I knew instantly when I saw a tower fall that something was not right. This was the beginning of my research into the truth in all things.
Regarding my work with Andrew D. Basiago, I was researching child prodigies when I was prompted by youtube to view 'Borskika, the Boy from Mars,' and interview by Project Camelot. I was then prompted by Andrew D. Basiago's "The Discovery of Life on Mars" published on 12/12/08. I could not find the paper and on 1/08/09 I contacted Andy who responded the same day directing me to the paper.I downloaded the paper,printed it and absorbed the information. Understand that I was fully aware that we were not alone. But the last thing I thought was that Mars was inhabited.
I then proceeded to download Spirit Rover image PIA10214, the image that Andy based his paper on and not only found what he did but more. I communicated with Andy regarding this and began to work on analyzing Mars and orbiter images.
After a short while Andy invited me to be an official photo analyst for Mars Anomaly Research Society. A bit over a year Andy appointed me VP for Science and Education of Mars.
This years Mars Conference will be the fourth. Due to circumstances this is the first that Andy will speak at.
The Fourth Annual Southeastern Mars Conference will be held in Mobile, AL at the University of South Alabama. The conference will be held in the Terrace meeting room in the Student Center building. Andy will be speaking from 10 am till 5 pm. Set aside Saturday, October 24, 2015; a time to hear Andy speak all about Mars. This will only happen with your support. This one day event will include lunch for all. The cost is $100.00 per person. If you have a group of three or more attending the cost will be $80.00 per person. Send a check or money order to MARS-LMR 4260 Grand Bay Wilmer Rd South Mobile, AL 36695. Lewis
Here is a couple of papers I wrote that are part of The Annuals of Mars at www.projectmars.net.
Here are interviews from the past three Annual Southeastern MARS Conferences.
Here are a few of my favorite Mars discoveries.

The latest by Hollywood Gossip says she's homeless.
My opinion, is Amber will never truly be homeless. This girl has too many F— Buddies to ever truly be homeless.
The latest by Hollywood Gossip says she's homeless.
My opinion, is Amber will never truly be homeless. This girl has too many F— Buddies to ever truly be homeless.
Click-bait article leaching off the penthouse sale news. Johnny didn't make her homeless. She made herself homeless.
Nevertheless, I also agree.
Here's what pisses me off about this. One, I'm Canadian. We have homeless here but not at the numbers you all do. Two, how many Americans are truly homeless, seriously homeless? Thousands! Not only that but thousands, kids and families! Are living in the effing streets, in cars and for some shelters are as good as it's getting for them. This bitch needs to take many seats. It has to be her leaking this to Star mag, she just needs to STFU! It's disgraceful! For most folks who end up on the streets they have already called in every favor and used every means necessary, the streets are the last resort. No one chooses the fucking streets to live, no one! And we are suppose to feel sorry for this cunt, I don't and cant' wait for the day she disappears from the media radar. I truly can't wait. Ugh! 😦
You are all very mean with Vacuum Amber.
I feel like one of her fans on Twitter :
"ella @wildesheard 19 hil y a 19 heures
I just want to wrap amber heard in a nice warm blanket and protect her from this ugly world"
Amber has no respect to: a) DV Victims ( after all she did, and how she did) , b) and now homeless people! a woman that goes out with a purse that costs £1230 is being compared to a homeless?!who wrote this shit article? this is disgusting! this is all BS! and you know what? i wouldn't be surprised if this is all a campaign for her to keep the money. i mean, what proves do we have that she already gave way all the money to charity? none! Toillet came to the press stating that she gave the money and was left with nothing bla bla bla, and now this homeless conversation… she probably wants an excuse, and while people are feeling sorry for Amber, who lives so bad this days, with purses that only cost the salaries of entire families around the world, she has the money in the bank , and lives relaxed with the interests! the worst sort of people that exist are those who pretend to be "poor creatures" that want the others to feel sorry for theme , so they can abuse them! IO is an expert in that "art"! If you have difficulties in life you fight with your head up, you don't manipulate others with your problems like this gang does!
In my opinion he ended up giving her the money…we never heard about that anymore , and i believe that this issue was solved between their lawyers… he just said that to scare her, after she came to the press saying that she was going to give all the money to charities, and the agreement said no more statements would be released … so to me she has part of the money, at least, and is playing an ugly game with the public opinion, like she did from the start, and i agree with you that she probably has the money she's been scamming from him. so Ambitch is more than fine in terms of money…about the rest she's done!
Of course she is homeless. Johnny didn't do that to her though, her greed did. She should have just taken the 8 month spousal support at the beginning and dropped the RO. Also, those Penthouses have always belonged to JD. I really think she thought she was going to get possession of them right up until the end and I am sure she was given notice to move out just like Yoga Raquel was. Whatever dirt JD's team dug up on her must have been really bad for her to accept those settlement terms and walk away with just the clothes on her back!
Amber has corporations set up. Let's see how much money is in those. This is TOTAL CRAP.
Meh. No sympathy here. She could always sell a few purses or pairs of shoes and have money for a deposit on normal digs like the rest of us.
It is only retaliation to the press on Johnny selling the penthouses. Crock of shit.
The only thing she might be homeless from, is NOT living in a multi-million penthouse! So I guess we can all say we're homeless because I certainly don't live in a multi million home.
Yes. It's funny that every time there is press about JD, her camp has to try and one up and put out another story about Scamber being a supposed victim. She is still trying to be relevant.
I agree with both of you.
Scum amber homeless, I love it! hahahahahahahahahahahahaha…
Yes, she never truly be homeless, because many people that to be the homeless has love in their heart.
She will go back to living in crappy apartments again not in the lap of luxury. In her insane mind anything less is considered homeless surely :yawn: Whatever.
Boo fucking hoo….NOT. No sympathy here bitch. Thank you karma.

Boo fucking hoo… No sympathy here bitch. Thank you karma.
A lot of it is tabloid spin. They need to come up with tall tales to come up with content for their rags as well as keep the masses interested.
Just like the new one saying Johnny is consoling Angelina just because they used the same attorney. At the same token she's not stupid and knows he has influence.
If he is consoling that toxic bag of bones wacko, he needs to take a back seat and stay clear and not drag his name.
Just like this spin The Snake is homeless? She can couch surf or sleep her way around….it's call KARMA.
Sources close to johnny have already dismissed that story as rubbish. Gossip con has confirmed its untrue. Johnny is not even in the states looool.
Yes, she's not stupid, but because she knows Johnny is better that B. Poor Johnny. Lies in tabloid and he just want relax in Spain.

On Lughnasadh Sunday we walked up Croaghpatrick, the mountain from which the notorious St Patrick is supposed to have banished the snakes from Ireland ('What's that guy got against reptiles anyway?'). Over 15,000 people (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/8204987.stm ) go up every year on that one day, and you can believe it – the long track is as busy as the Old Kent Road. It was a pretty unpleasant climb, especially after we ascended into the fog and rain, but an incredible spectacle: people of all ages and dress styles, being helpful towards each other. An old man with two sticks fell in front of me, and people gathered round to help him up, I got one of his sticks back to him, and he proceeded another three steps before falling again. And it didn't stint on weirdness: up on the summit, in fog, a speaker system blared out Mass and the confession queue snaked up to the tiny stone church. On the way back down I saw a little old man in suit and tie and brogues, strolling up the scree-strewn path as if it was just another trip to Mass in his Sunday best. Back down and soaked to the skin after a four hour round trip, we drank comforting stout in the pub at the foot of the track.
We stopped for a meal on the way back, a hotel in Westport, the nearest town to Croaghpatrick. Donal came out with a perfect description of Irish tourist hyperreality: 'This place is a bit diddly-I'.
The next day was the Bonniconlon Agricultural Show, the local highlight of the year. It was fun, and definitely not diddley-I – sheepdog trials, horse jumping, cattle, sheep, goats, boxty to eat, what looked like the remains of a turf turning demo, a dog show, fairground rides for kids, water-collecting and field drainage systems, turf-stripping machines, a sheaf throwing contest which went on all afternoon, a fiercely anti-British IRA stall, and even a stress-relief masseuse from the local town who was having to work hard to convince the locals of the benefits of her craft.
The final couple of days we spent around the neolithic burial complex of Loughcrew Cairns, recommended to us as the less touristy version of the Boyne Valley passage graves. Not fancying another satnav adventure, we navigated map in hand to the general area, then disappeared into the maze of local roads. Wondering where we were going to stay the night, we suddenly spotted by the road a sign saying 'Parking and Camping, open till 6'. It was 6.20, and the gate was still open, so we pull in and asked – and yes, not only did we have a place for our tent tonight but we're right at the foot of the Slieve na Calliagh, the Hill of the Sorceress, the range of hills that start dramatically up out of a gently rolling landscape, topped by the Loughcrew Cairns.
So we sat by our tent, cooking and eating, watching the poachers go out a few minutes after the staff left the buildings, two lads on a quad bike, one of them with a shotgun. Some time and a few detonations later, they returned with a bulging bag. We walked up the main hill, where the most impressive tombs are, and saw the best sunset I've ever seen bar none – like a grid of red-hot steel mesh or flowing molten metal stretched across the sky.
The next day was for walking and magic. My Statement of Intent was: To experience ecstasy, to be taken out of myself.
Which I was.
Back in Britain, the following weekend was the riots. I thought of the crannog we saw in Lough Talt, a tiny artificial island sticking up from the water. It was some Bronze Age family's sanctuary from their bandit neighbours, complete with secret steps under the water level, the route known only to the kin who built it. Imagine, what a palaver to go through, to avoid robbery of your scarce and tiny resources – a few scrawny animals, on a pile of rocks. That's what life can be like when times are hard and there's no effective law.

- Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs), also known as Confidential Disclosure Agreements (CDAs), are often used to protect the confidentiality of an invention during evaluation by potential licensees. NDAs/CDAs also protect proprietary information of third parties that Yale researchers need to review in order to conduct research, or evaluate research opportunities. OCR enters into NDAs/CDAs for Yale proprietary information shared with someone outside of Yale.
- Inter-Institutional Agreements describe the terms under which two or more institutions (e.g., two universities) will collaborate to assess, protect, market, license, and share in the revenues received from licensing jointly owned intellectual property.
- Option Agreements, or Option Clauses within research agreements, describe the conditions under which Yale preserves the opportunity for a third party to negotiate a license for intellectual property. Option clauses are often provided in a Sponsored Research Agreement to corporate research sponsors at Yale, or are entered into with third parties wishing to evaluate the technology prior to entering into a full license agreement.
- Material Transfer Agreements (MTAs), used for incoming and outgoing materials at Yale, are administered by OCR when the other party is a for-profit entity. These agreements describe the terms under which Yale researchers and outside researchers may share materials, typically for research or evaluation purposes. Intellectual property rights can be jeopardized if materials are transferred and used without a proper MTA.
- Sponsored Research Agreements (SRAs) or Collaboration Research Agreements (CRAs) with for-profit organizations are also negotiated by OCR. These agreements include provisions that address how intellectual property, which may arise out of the research, will be handled.

The Sonic Aesthetic New Districts EP
Earlier this year, Mark Barrott stepped from behind the managerial desk of his International Feel label to release an EP as The Sonic Aesthetic. Tales from the Nocturn was a fine semi-debut (Barrott had a career in drum & bass as Future Loop Foundation prior to moving to Uruguay and starting a label), exhibiting a dusted disco-house sound that slotted nicely next to International Feel's marquee acts. Now, Barrott is already back with its follow up, New Districts, which is set to be the first release for his new sub-label, also called The Sonic Aesthetic. Certain aspects of the record's predecessor remain, but the mood is much less smudgy and romantic.
All three tracks on the EP are marked by acidic leads, sounds which often end up dominating the mix they're deployed into. "Duke's Cut" has a pulsing strut, and is marked by hand drums and lazy chords which mesh with the TB-303 centerpiece. The jacking "Earthworms" is a bit more playful, featuring a deep, resonant melody interwoven with an insect-like, high-octave line and some string stabs. But neither really ascend beyond simple "acid track" territory; they're well composed, but lack any further panache.
Although it is shorter and not aimed at the dancefloor, the title track is the most successful here, as Barrott blends the patient acid with glassy chimes and low pads. The result is more in line with Tales from the Nocturn's cosmic, beachcombing vibe, and indeed with the International Feel ethos as a whole. Overall, New Districts is not as distinctive as The Sonic Aesthetic's debut, but it does make one wonder what other stylistic shifts Barrott might have in store for his new imprint.

Alhamdulilah hubby and I both got new jobs this year. So far I love the place and it is much nearer to hubby's and to house. The only setback is my working hours is 1/2hr earlier than normal and hubby's working hour is another 1/2 hour later. Thus AE was robbed extra 1 hour everyday. I am a firm believer that TIME is more important than money. But in this case looks like we need to sacrifice a bit more of time.
I feel pity that we have to send him before the day is bright and pick him up when the day is almost over. It's not like he cries when we leave/pick him, rather he is usually sleeping (am) and happily playing with his girlfriend (pm). It's just me being emotional. huhu.
But the good thing is we both get to go off early on Friday so every Friday we will pick him up earlier (usually after 530pm as that time the daycare friends watching Upin Ipin). Plus AE still don't go to school so he gets to stay up late. His normal sleep time is 12midnite! Huhu..ngantuk beb melayan die especially kalau time die hyperactive terlajak sampai kul 2am but I thankful for the few hours that we get to spend together.
Ashman Ehsan,
I want you to know it is very hard for me to leave you everyday. There's one moment I almost quit my job but then reasoned and opted to change job to something less oustation/late hours. Maybe later I could opt for something more flexible like 1/2 day job or work from home, if Allah permits. In the meantime, I hope you are healthy and happy at the daycare.
Now that you are 2 years and 3M, you talk a lot more and repeat our conversation. You learn from dunno who language expression, such as "ooohhh sedapnya…" or "waahhhh cantiknya…" . Your favorite food now is bread with butter+jam, sometimes you love the jam so much you wiped it all over your face. Thanks to Angah, you also start drinking syrup.
You dance every night to kids video clips of your choice. You has mastered ABC Song and now singing Baa Baa Black Sheep and Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. You also start watching Finding Nemo (I think this is was the first official movie you like). You recognize a lot more animals; some are quite hard even for adult such as manatee, artic fox (ape kebenda tu hehe), porcupine, orangutan, and owl.
I love you Ashman Ehsan, so much so much so much.

We can all probably agree that using the oven when it's 90 degrees outside is absolutely horrendous. There's just nothing good that can come out of that situation no matter how you look at it. Sure you might get a nice hot meal, but you'll end up heating a room that you're paying to keep cool, and after you eat the hot food, you yourself will feel warmer and be prompted to spend even more money cooling down the house.
The stove just isn't summer friendly, and while I wouldn't advocate eating cold food all summer, I would say that there are better alternatives to the stove and better meal choices we could be making when the heat is bearing down on us.
These are just a few of many possible meal ideas that could be utilized during the warmer months of the year.
What we'll do first, is list some appliances that are much better to use for cooking food when your air conditioner is working feverishly to cool down your kitchen.
Alternatives to the Stove
Crock Pot -- The crock pot or "slow cooker" is an excellent tool to use when it's too warm for the stove. In fact, if you don't have one, I'd say it's a worthwhile investment. It takes longer to cook food, but it doesn't throw off nearly as much heat as the stove does. Use it for soups, casseroles or just about anything.
Outdoor Grill -- A grill is one of the obvious summer choices and if you don't have one, you'll have some pretty decent options for under $300 if you choose to go buy one up. A grill is your best option for preparing meat throughout the summer, with the added benefit of the much preferred grilled flavor.
Outdoor Fire Pit (in the evening) -- This is probably only going to work in the evenings, but if you're really rugged, you can use a fire to cook your food, or even just make smores or hot dogs. If you haven't had a hot meal all day, it might be your last line opportunity to do so, even if it's just a hot dog.
Microwave -- While the microwave isn't necessarily a summer exclusive item, it should be the preferred method of cooking food instead of the stove, if at all possible. It's quicker, gives off far less heat and is all around simpler to use if you're trying to limit your time in the kitchen.
Bread Maker -- You can do a lot with a bread maker, so it can fill in as a part-time baking option while your oven is lying dormant.
Meal Ideas
With our non-stove cooking appliances in place, let's look at a few meals that we can prepare during the summer that are warm weather friendly and free from the excess heat of the oven and stove top.
Meal 1 -- Grilled chicken, baked (or sweet) potatoes and pasta salad with iced green tea and honey --
Marinade the chicken ahead of time and cook it over the grill on top of aluminum foil. If you're using baked potatoes, poke holes on either side of each one and add olive oil and sea salt to the outer skin, then add the potatoes to the grill as well.
To cool down, do a pasta salad with some fresh tomatoes and cucumbers and add some iced green tea with honey to round things out.
Meal 2 -- Feta Burgers, fresh salad, corn on the cob and homemade lemonade -- When you make your burgers, stuff them with feta cheese before they go on the grill. When you put the corn on the grill, you can actually leave them with the husks still on and they'll cook just fine. All you'll really need to add after that is a cold salad since the beef and feta will be pretty filling. Serve water with fresh lemons and just a bit of sugar for lemonade.
Meal 3 -- Potato Soup in the crock pot and homemade bread with butter -- This recipe only works if you have a bread maker. If not, substitute the bread for Texas toast on the grill. Whatever potato soup recipe you prefer is fine, just use the crock pot to cook it. Even in the crock pot, it shouldn't take terribly long. If you have the luxury of the bread maker, you can enjoy homemade bread with the soup without having to use the oven. This makes for a great warm meal in the evening if you and your family are tired of eating cold stuff.
These are just a few ideas, but the point is that you can still eat great warm meals without using the oven or stove. Just because it's hot out doesn't mean that you and your family will get tired of hot food and just want to eat deli meat all day long. In fact, the longer days and more relaxed atmosphere make summer a better time for cooking and enjoying meals.
Be creative, and learn how to do it while staying cool at the same time. It's a win-win for everybody.

Los Angeles, CA – USC has fired coach Frank Cruz (above, center), citing violations of NCAA rules on practice time and organized team activities.
Baseball coach Cruz, who was 48-63 in his two seasons with the Trojans, will be replaced with associate head coach Dan Hubbs, a former Trojans pitcher.
News of Cruz's sacking was confirmed Wednesday by Trojans athletic director Pat Haden. Haden added that the school would be reducing the number of practice hours for the baseball team this season and next:
"Adhering to all NCAA rules is paramount for each one of our coaches, student-athletes and staff members. Those who knowingly break NCAA rules are subject to termination."
Cruz was suspended by USC on February 7 pending the school's internal investigation into possible NCAA rule violations.
The investigation, carried out by Vice President for Athletic Compliance Dave Roberts and his staff, aimed to determine whether the baseball program exceeded the allowed Countable Athletically-Related Activities hours. The probe was completed earlier this week, and Cruz has paid with his job.
USC has informed the NCAA and Pac-12 of the rule violations carried out by Cruz. It has also shared details of its reduced training hours. Of Frank Cruz's replacement, Haden said:
"I'm confident that Dan Hubbs and his staff will lead our team to a successful season. Dan is a good coach, he is highly-regarded in the baseball community and he has strong Trojan roots."
Do you agree with USC's decision to fire Frank Cruz, and is Dan Hubbs a suitable replacement?

Lucky Find
A South African visitor to Limerick city walked away with a "one in a million find" after a visit to a flea market in the Milk Market last month.
Jason Ludlow, from Johannesburg, bought an American first edition copy of Emily Bronte's classic Wuthering Heights from an unsuspecting stallholder at the Milk Market, which he then sold for a staggering €8,000 upon his return to his home country. He paid just €3 for the book.
"I was in Ireland and Limerick in March and April, and was very lucky to have found such a great old book at the Friday Flea Market," he said from Angola.
"It was a rare copy of Wuthering Heights printed in 1848 that I've subsequently sold for a substantial amount," he added.
"That is amazing," said a spokesperson for the market. "We have only been running for a month -- we have only had six of the markets. It is hugely successful, people have reacted positively. This is one in a million, I don't know what else to say."

Killed By a Cow
An elderly arthritic farmer was crushed by a cow after he stumbled while moving animals, an inquest has heard.
John Beattie, 74, landed on the ground as he herded female cattle on his farm in Kildowney Hill, Glarryford, in January this year. His son William saw an animal on top of his chest.
"I turned around and saw my father on the ground and the cattle was standing on his chest with its rear leg," he told the Belfast inquest last Thursday.
Beattie was taken to Antrim Area Hospital but died three days later after sustaining rib fractures and a torn diaphragm under the massive beast.
William Beattie added, "I said to him, 'How bad are you? He said, 'I am brave and bad.'"
The animals were being put on a lorry for transport to a meat plant in Coleraine.
The ground was slippery and a health and safety expert concluded that the lifelong farmer may have lost his footing.
Health and Safety Executive inspector John Spiers said. "John Beattie may have stumbled when he entered the pen and then was trampled by one of the animals."
Coroner John Leckey said it was a slippery environment and observed that the older farmer figured high in the casualty statistics.
"It is something to do. Farmers tend not to retire in the true sense of the word," he said.
Leckey said the system of moving the cattle was normal and there were enough people to do the procedure safely. His finding was that he died from a chest injury due to being crushed by a heifer, with other heart conditions significant factors in why he died.

Woman Rapist Convicted
An Edenderry woman found guilty of digitally raping another woman in Australia is appealing her two and a half year sentence.
Anne Marie O'Loughlin began her appeal against her conviction at the Court of Appeal in Brisbane last Monday.
The 26-year-old had been working as a nurse in Australia for the past two and a half years and was due to return to Ireland last December.
During a five-day trial in Brisbane last December, a 12-man jury convicted her of two counts of digital rape and one of the deprivation of liberty of a woman in the female toilets in the Caxton Hotel in Brisbane on November 29.
Prosecutor Chris Minnery called for O'Loughlin to be sentenced to three years with release on parole after she served 18 months.
Saying her behavior was "completely out of character," Damian Walsh, defending barrister, asked for a sentence of nine months.
Judge David Reid describing the matter as "a tragic event for all concerned."
"It is particularly distressing. A security officer at the Caxton described you as unduly intoxicated. You were finding it hard to stay on your feet and almost fell down some stairs," commented Judge Reid to the defendant.
He added, "I hope you will use your time in prison to address issues you have with the consumption of alcohol and sexual aggression."
O'Loughlin will be eligible for parole on March 3 next year, her 27th birthday, having served 18 months including time already spent in prison.
Legal representation for Ms O'Loughlin claimed at her appeal that she had not received a fair trial.
At the Brisbane Court of Appeal Jeff Hunter SC said the judge at the trial has misdirected the jury on the issue of mistaken belief of consent.
"The complainant's inability to set out how she ended up in the cubicle with a woman she didn't know is a significant matter," Hunter said, highlighting that the victim had never explained the origins of the offense.
He also said the victim had given the police one version and her husband another version of what had happened.

Where's Are the Coins?
Visitors and locals alike have been throwing coins into the fountain in the world famous Rose Garden at Kilkenny Castle for many years and hoping their wishes will come true. The legend has grown that if you throw in a euro or less into the water you will have great luck.
Some members of the workforce at the castle emptied the fountain of coinage at regular intervals through out the year when the fountain itself had to be closed for maintenance.
The Office of Public Works (OPW) which operates the castle on behalf of the people of Kilkenny admitted that until recently it had no knowledge of this and had, until now, no idea what happened the coins discarded by tourists and residents.
The OPW said that this had been done without the knowledge of the management at castle. After looking in to the matter, the OPW said that the coins left in the fountain by the general public had been collected by some of the staff at the castle, with no formal arrangement in place for their usage.
"The management at the Castle have put a stop to this practice, and formal arrangements are now in place to have the coins collected and donated to a local registered charity," Neil Ryan, spokesman for the castle, said. Management had no idea where the money collected from the fountain until now went, and did not address the matter in a short statement issued.
It is understood that when the fountain is cleaned out it normally has between €200 and €300 in it. Because there was no receipt supplied by those who collected the coins to show the money was going to a local charity, it is uncertain where the money went.
The money may have been put straight into the collection boxes of local churches. And there is no hint of impropriety on behalf of staff because there was no breach of any rules or regulations.
Indeed, at the famous Trevi Fountain located in the heart of Rome, a man who collected coins at the fountain every day was brought to court in 1992 by the municipal police, but the action was struck out after the judge ruled that since the coins had been intentionally discarded by tourists at the fountain, there was no crime because you could not take something which did not belong to anyone.

Smuggling Grows
A Northsude Dublin retailer says he's not surprised by new figures revealing the capital as the second highest area in the country for illegal cigarette seizures.
Benny Gilsenan, owner of Benny's Newsagents on Emmet Place, beside Croke Park, was reacting to statistics released by the Irish Tobacco Manufacturers Advisory Committee (ITMAC) identifying Dublin as a major nationwide blackspot for the illegal cigarette trade.
The research, carried out by ITMAC, shows that 52.2 million cigarettes were seized by customs throughout Dublin last year, with a value of €17.4 million to the Irish economy.
The figure is second only to the border counties of Louth and Armagh, where just under 70 million counterfeit cigarettes were intercepted.
Gilsenan, a founding member of the group Retailers Against Smuggling, suspects that the black market trade in cigarettes is on the rise as criminals get wise to checks being mounted by customs officials.
"They're splitting their load into different containers, as the chances of several trucks getting inspected consecutively are very slim," he said.
"Instead of putting €1 million euro worth of cigarettes into one lorry, they're putting a million cigarettes into four or five containers.
"That way, if one container gets caught, they can still be guaranteed of getting at least 75% of their consignment through every time."
Gilsenan, who opened his shop in Dublin 40 years ago, also expressed concern that new legislation introduced last year aimed at cracking down on cigarette smugglers is not being adequately enforced.
"I'm not in favor of jail. That only costs the taxpayer. We have to hurt them in the pocket, whether they're smuggling 200 cigarettes, 2,000 or two million."
Dublin saw the highest amount of prosecutions for illegal cigarette crime in 2010, with 26 people prosecuted for smuggling and four people for selling illegal cigarettes.
A spokesperson for ITMAC warned that the billion euro lost to the Irish economy from cigarette smuggling is being channeled into serious organized crime, including the hard drug trade.

Consider appointing an Intern Manager
by internships.com writer
Are you committed to having an intern at your company this summer? Consider selecting a junior employee to be the Intern Manager. Be sure to choose an employee who has great people skills and would be a positive mentor to an intern. This move, selecting an Intern Manager is a positive on many levels. It puts a system in place for welcoming and mentoring interns, it frees senior managers for other assignments, and it's an honor for the junior employee who is selected to take the role of Intern Manager. Below are a few tips:
1. Appoint one junior employee to be in charge of interns as Intern Manager and point of contact and to mentor and monitor intern performance.. The junior employee also increases the intern's comfort level since the intern will enjoy working with a younger employee closer to his or her own age.
2. Allow your Intern Manager time in his/her schedule to coordinate each intern's schedule with the appropriate manager. Arrange for the intern to spend a certain amount of time either daily or weekly with the Intern Manager to review progress. Establish a clear chain of command, ensuring that your employees know if they have any concerns about the intern, they can get help from the Intern Manager.
3. Send a broadcast email to your employee distribution list that announces the intern, gives a sentence or two about him/her, and asks staff to extend a warm welcome. On the day that the intern starts, the Intern Manager should take the intern on a tour and introduce the new member to individual staff.
4. Arrange for the Intern Manager to meet with the intern on Day #1 and discuss expectations and outcomes on both sides. Set the intern up to succeed by starting with small projects and graduating to more complicated and lengthy assignments.
Getting your company ready for a summer intern
by internships.com writer
Use these tips as you are planning for summer interns:
- Survey your company, asking departments if they want interns, what skill sets, and how many interns they need. Some departments find interns useful and others may not.
- Prepare a description of internship duties and email it to the incoming intern (in advance if you can) for review, answering any questions ahead of time to prevent confusion. Make sure the intern has an Intern Packet with appropriate materials before the start date. The Intern Packet should contain company policy information as well as forms to track intern activity.
- Assign interns to areas that may need a full-time employee in the near future, using the internship to "test the waters" with candidates that you might later hire. Be sure to ask employees in those areas for their evaluations on each intern's performance.
- Ensure that the intern has a desk and proper supplies so he/she can begin productive work immediately. A more senior intern—if available—may want to have a short meeting with the new intern to talk about office procedures or to explain the computer system or any unfamiliar technology systems. Utilize current interns to train incoming interns, reducing staff time with interns and facilitating employees to fulfill work objectives.
- Consider rotating interns to cover areas left vacant as employees take summer vacations. Suggest that the departing employee give the intern an orientation on what to do to reduce the workload on the remaining staff. Although the intern may only be able to perform basic duties, the department will appreciate the additional help.
- Reward an unpaid intern in various ways. If your company has a cafeteria, give the intern a pass that enables him/her to eat for free on working days. Take the intern to a professional meeting as your guest, paying for his/her lunch and introducing him to other professionals. Give a gift certificate at the end of the internship as well as a written letter of recommendation. Current interns may refer future interns to your organization, and you can be sure students share information about their experiences. Make sure everyone wants to intern at your company, so you have a wide selection of excellent applicants.

I used a clear Wink of Stella marker to give the petals a subtle shine and added pearls to the centers. The butterflies are Memory Box Cascadia Butterfly Trio dies. The sentiment was cut with a Taylored Expressions Banner Stacklets 1 die and inked with Spun Sugar Distress Ink. Memory Box Chloe Stems were tucked among the flowers. The crinkle ribbon is from DL.ART.

a few days before new years
me & my aunt went to gothenburg the other day, the rain was horrible but we did get some fun despite that weather. liseberg is a wonderful amusement park i went to every summer as a child:) it was something i could look forward to for months. we too went shopping a little bit & had some fika.
yesterday i met a tessan, jenny & my love pernilla at a cute cafe here in uddevalla called blomsterkroken, that cake with coffee was what pernilla was to devour:) it looked more beautiful than my plate so i stole hers for a picture;) then i went to our museum to read sofis mode (my stepdad buys them every week and when i come home i have like 10 to read, sweet right?) before meeting up my mom & other stepdad at butlers fro some wine. my evening ended at pernilla's house for some wine (and some fake beer haha) & cheese!
this morning it was again raining like crazy but i did create a long walk anyways, we have so many cute treasures to photograph.
