Could you help a girl out?
I've been a bit down in the dumps lately, an effect of, what I like to call, the summer blues. I simply wasn't designed for the hot, humid Japanese summer. But I just got an email which totally made my day. I've been nominated for a Book Blogger Appreciation Week Award in the category of Best General Review Blog. The criteria: "This blog doesn't specialize in any one book genre, but it's still excellent. Their book reviews usually cause you to add one more book to the TBR pile."
Mine is such a little blog compared to many out there, so I'm absolutely thrilled! As you can tell, my blogging has been less frequent since our move and I still haven't got properly back in the swing of things, so it's especially appreciated right now. Thank you so much!
Now I need to submit 5 blog posts "that you consider to be the best representation of your blog", and I have no idea which ones to choose. I hope this isn't against the rules but I would be extremely grateful if you'd let me know a specific post, or the kinds of posts that you have particularly enjoyed here at In Spring it is the Dawn, or any posts you think best represent my blog. Pretty please with a cherry on top. And a big thank you in advance.
Update: I've also been nominated for Best Cultural Review Blog. Thanks so much guys! This means so much to me!

Congratulations on your nomination!!ReplyDelete
Congrats on the nomination! You entirely deserve it. :)ReplyDelete
Congrats on your well-deserved nomination, and good luck picking which posts to submit. I'd help you, but I have to go do the same thing (for different categories) :-).ReplyDelete
Congratulations! I love your blog :)ReplyDelete
I also liked your review of After Dark.ReplyDelete
Congratulations! I loved your review of Kafka on the Shore, so I'd suggest that.ReplyDelete
Congrats!! You deserve it.ReplyDelete
I was skimming through a few of your past reviews... ones I remember liking were "The Character of Rain" and your reviews of the Emma novels.
Speaking of Emma, I noticed that you found a website to read scans of volumes 5-7. I had the SAME problem with trying to get ahold of English translations of them, and if you have a link and wouldn't mind sharing, I would be very appreciative! I also don't understand why it is so hard to get ahold of the final novels when the first ones are readily available! My email is firstname.lastname@example.com if you do have the links. Thanks.
Oh, Nat. I'm so happy for you. You certainly deserve this honor. Hope this keeps you out of the dumps for many, many months. Hugs.ReplyDelete
Thanks everyone for your congratulations and suggestions. And thank you so much to whoever nominated me in the first place. It really means so very much to me that you thought of my blog. :)ReplyDelete
Lena - There were so many reviews for The Graveyard Book, I'm surprised, but pleased, that you remember mine. :)
Florinda - It was hard choosing, wasn't it? Congratulations on your own nominations!
Thanks Amanda - I included that as one of my links, thanks to your suggestion. :)
Nymeth - Thanks for weighing in. I used yours and Amanda's suggestions, one for each category. :)
Kim L - Thank you! I made a last minute change to one of my submissions. :)
I can't remember if I made a note of the website where I found the scans or not. Let me take a look and I'll email you.
Thanks Les! I think my chances of being shortlisted are pretty slim but being nominated really did make my day. :)
Congrats on the nomination!ReplyDelete
I'm too late for blogger input on your posts, but I did want to say congrats on the nominations. I know your blog isn't new, but it's one of my favorite discoveries from the past year.ReplyDelete
Thanks Jess!ReplyDelete
Trish - Thank you. I'm very glad to have found your blog this year too. :)
Congrats Tanabata! You so deserve these!ReplyDelete
Thanks Teddy!ReplyDelete
Thank you so much for stopping by and taking the time to comment. I love hearing from you and I read every single one!

Hey Guys ^^
Just a quick, shameless plug...
DateMe is a Hinata!Pairing-centered group on DeviantArt with the ultimate goal of creating a 2009 calendar out of the artwork from Hinata-fans from all across the fandom. To do this, we'll be hosting one contest per month featuring a different pairing. Since we understand that not everyone is artistically inclined (such as myself), we also have a fanfiction section to our contest(s) with the same theme(s) so that everyone has the chance to participate.
Since the first contest just so happens to be NejiHina-centric, I thought someone here might be interested ^^. It ends on Jan 31st and we STILL need a lot of entries! As of right now (about 12:19PM, EST, on January 19th) we have NO submissions. Not a SINGLE ONE.
HOWEVER, there's still PLENTY OF TIME to take part in the contest ^^ It's only mid-month, meaning that there are still TWELVE DAYS in which you can submit your entries to the group. All the rules and directions about posting are on the group described in the General Guidelines section.
Here are the specifics about this month's contest:
Challenge: A New Beginning
Pairing: NejiHina
For this theme, please be sure to:
1 ) Include the pairing NejiHina (whether romantic or not).
2 ) Place them in a winter setting. (Ex: snow, ice, sitting by a warm fire, etc.)
3 ) Try to somehow include the theme of "beginning," even if it's subtle. (Ex: Enjoying the fresh snow, freeing a pair of birds together, first kiss, etc.)
4 ) Be creative! With such a vague theme, you can do just about anything to satisfy the requirements. (We draw the line at NejHina basking on a beach in skimpy swim wear, though.)
Please, please, PLEASE submit fanart to our contest! If we want to have an image for the month of January in our calendar, we NEED that NejiHina artwork! Don't forget that there's also a fanfiction section for those of you who don't happen to be artistically inclined (like myself).
We've got fabulous prizes for the winners, too (No, really, we do) ^^ Buttons created by ~luckyiota; here's an example: http://dateme.deviantart.com/art/Prize-Pin-Example-73451528
We really, REALLY hope to see some postings soon!
Begging here,
Megami <3

Counseling can be a key step towards the eventual recovery and rehabilitation of a child victim of sexual offences. Sensitive, ethical and responsive counselling can help heal trauma and empower the child to move on from the disruption caused to her or his life.
A counselor not only needs to be aware of the child's mental and emotional needs but the societal pressures that a victim of sexual offences has to undergo. This page is intended to support a trained counselor to under stand the needs of child victims and how they may respond to the same.

Shaco Build Guide by Billywhiz10
Not Updated For Current Season
This guide has not yet been updated for the current season. Please keep this in mind while reading. You can see the most recently updated guides on the browse guides page.
Thank You!
Your votes and comments encourage our guide authors to continue
creating helpful guides for the League of Legends community.
How about a magic trick!?
Shaco Build
Jungle Role
Starting Items
Must have
Core items (yes, all five!)
Possible final items
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Threats to Shaco with this build
|Lee Sin
|BEWARE! Lee is Shaco's hardest counter. He gets true sight if he hits you with his combo so Q will not save you! he is also a great duelist, so it is unlikely you will beat him 1v1 unless you are ahead in lvl, items, or health.
|He will out duel you any day of the week. invading early is still safe because of your Q, but don't try and fight him unless he is low enough to be bursted.
My Shaco background (nothing important here, just for you curious few)
I'm not claiming to be the next Shaclone, but I consider myself way above average on Shaco and he is my main. He is such a fun champion to play with endless builds (mine is the best :D) and endless possibilities. In all honesty, I highly recommend him as a main, as he is honestly the only champion I never get tired of playing due to the fun I get from pulling of The Great Escape in a 1v5 or driving the enemy into insanity by countering their every move! Anyway, onto the guide!
Pros / Cons of Shaco
+Great burst
+Good clear speeds (and sustain in jungle due to boxes)
+Great mobility
+Potential to control the early and mid game by shutting down the enemy jungler
+Massive outplay potential (both defensively and offensively)
+Good 1v1 potential, especially with ignite/exhaust
+Potentially the best ganking jungler in the game
+Good splitpush and counterjungle power
-Hard to learn and play
-Requires near perfect time management to abuse his potential
-Requires good game knowledge to utilise to full effect
-Very squishy (if you don't build tank or my build)
-Using Q to engage without shields can get you blown up
-Vulnerable to CC if R is not up
-Not a good pick if your laners are aggressive and snowball champions (since your mere presence will dissuade enemy laners from pushing)
About the guide (brief but important if you want to know the ins and outs)
This is a guide that I believe makes Shaco great for ranked. A lot of people believe that Shaco is not a good champion for ranked because he can't teamfight and he falls off. I would agree for the most part, but this build gives you way more options for teamfighting as you can jump on the carry in teamfights, make them disappear, and survive long enough for your team to back you up! This being said, the build shines in gold and silver elo, and gets less effective gradually after high gold and towards plat and beyond due to good game knowledge (pink wards etc), but it still beats the other builds at these levels!
Why this build is different to all the others (and better :D)
NOTE: THIS GUIDE REVOLVES AROUND THE BUILD, THIS BUILD IS WHAT MAKES THIS GUIDE OP, SO IF YOU ARE LAZY LIKE ME FOLLOW THE BUILD AND YOU'LL BE FINE. Now, this is a unique build that I made while trying new things on Shaco. Most builds only allow for full damage, damage and crit, or low damage but high tank. However, all of these builds fall short of something. Damage builds are always useless for teamfights (i.e. bad for ranked) and tank builds just aren't good enough on Shaco. This build gives plenty of damage and also enough sustain to survive a prolonged fight, it is a perfect balance of tank and damage, so you can still make people disappear :D. The only thing that lacks is epic splitpush power (compared to shiv and hydra builds), but its still there.
Shaco is arguably the best ganking/invading assassin in the game. He is also a fantastic splitpusher since you can juke for days and escape any ambushes or angry enemies that come your way. Time management is very important to succeed as Shaco, as you should always be ganking or looking for an invade after level 3. Invading is good because you can use your boxes as wards to track the enemy jungler to alert your team or go in for the kill!
Summoner Spells
In regards to summoners, Smite is a must take obviously. I really like ignite as my second summoner spell but I've seen people take exhaust for similar reasons (early kills for free). I would never take flash on Shaco because of his Q blink, since when you learn him you should never Q in to fights you won't win so escaping is usually possible with it.
In-depth early game information that can make you snowball before 5 minutes
Once the game has started, ward possible invade routes and go to your red buff (or blue buff if on purple side), then when the timer hits 50 seconds place your first box behind where the large monster will spawn, so when it attacks the box you get extra damage from your passive. Keep putting boxes there in the same place until there are 3 boxes down. Now, a lot of people don't exploit the double proc of fear that you get if you place the fourth box as the camp spawns. Doing this will allow you to clear faster and take NO damage from the camp WITHOUT SMITING (SAVE THE SMITE). Now you are level 2 TAKE Q, not E, and make your way behind the ENEMY buff on the same side of the map. Now, when you get behind the buff use your Q to blink over the wall into the camp. Usually, you will find a half health enemy jungler trying to innocently take his first buff after a leash. If this is the case, smite his buff away from him at the last possible second and then attack him before the crit from your Q runs out. If you can get the kill with IGNITE, great! If not, just run away you have his buff :D! If the enemy jungler has started somewhere else, great! Take his buff! Now take E lvl 3 and gank or invade where you see fit for the rest of the game, since you may have a kill and/or the enemy jungler is behind, but try and abuse this early advantage. Note: You don't need a leash from your bot lane using this method, so they can exert massive pressure on the enemy bot lane by pushing immediately while the enemy jungler is being leashed.
When ganking as Shaco, expect an easy kill until you reach high gold and above. You should wait until the enemy laner is almost in the middle of the lane. Then get as close as possible without them seeing you and activate your Q. Use the invisibility time to go behind them and place a box in the their escape route. As soon as the box is placed, backstab them for the extra damage and auto attack them and smite if you have it. Save your E for as long as possible as it is more efficient that way (more slows). If they somehow last your initial burst, your box should fear them and the laner/you will pick up a free kill.
Shaco Mindgames!
My favourite aspect of Shaco and maybe the most important in terms of play-style is using mindgames to dictate the way your opponents play. If you get a kill in a gank, why not wait until they get back and kill them immediately again? this may make them rage, or make them too scared to push your laner giving him/her a nice laning phase. Also, place boxes everywhere when invading the enemy jungler. There is nothing more terrifying than walking into a Shaco box in your own jungle, as you don't know if hes about to kill you. Use tactics such as these to try and force your opponents around. E.g. force an enemy laner to play passively by camping them (best against snowball champs like Fizz), or dictate the enemy junglers movements by placing boxes in places you don't want him to be (e.g. in the routes leading to Dragon and Baron). Furthermore, your ultimate can be used to bait people in to fights by controlling the clone and hiding somewhere else, but I prefer to use it as a last resort to survive or to make the enemy commit to a fight he can't win.
Thanks for reading!
Thanks for reading, I hope you take your new found wisdom and go and take the rift by storm with this new Shaco epiphany I have bestowed upon you! If you want me to elaborate on anything further (such as any items or enemy junglers etc) just leave a comment and I'll edit the guide and mention you to make it easier to find :))

The year saw the loss of many legends, the irreplaceable celebrities. India mourned the loss of eminent personalities. As yet another year draws to a close; it is time to remember the magic once again of some of those who left us in 2011.
Pandit Bhimsen Joshi: On 24 January India lost its renowned Hindustani classical vocalist Pandit Bhimsen Joshi. This was seen as a great loss to the Indian music industry as Pandit Bhimsen had taken the Indian classical music to the world arena. Prabha Atre, a proponent of the Kirana Gharana said "Joshi was an extraordinary man who was not just Bharat ratna but 'vishwa' ratna. With his demise, the entire Indian classical music community feels orphaned. It is now a big responsibility on us, to continue the rich tradition left behind by him," as reported by The Hindu.
Anant Pai: The man who brought in the comics Amar Chitra Katha and Tinkle into existence passed away on 24 February. Also known as Uncle Pai, Anant wrote a series of educational comics where in each comic was devoted to a person or event in Indian history, religion or mythology. For over two and a half decades Tinkle was a massive hit among the young. He was also awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award in February at India's first ever Comic Convention held in New Delhi.
Navin Nischol: 19 March saw the death of the noted Bollywood actor Navin Nischol. His death came as a shock to many in the industry. Danish Aslam, who directed Navin in his last film Break Ke Baad said 'There're some people whom you work with and get to know and you wish that you could've done a lot more work with, just because they're such genuinely interesting people with so much to learn from. Navinji was such a person. I had every intention of working with him again. I feel I'm a lesser person for having lost out on that opportunity.' Navin is recalled as the soft spoken and cultured man by his colleagues.
Bob Christo: March also witnessed the sad demise of Australian born Bollywood actor, Bob Christo. With his masculine and bald headed look he played the 'Gora' villain in a number of movies. Bob was a civil engineer; he was drawn to the industry as he was fascinated by modeling and Bollywood movies. He has acted in more than 200 movies in various languages. After his stint in the industry he also worked as a fitness trainer and later on moved to start a business.
Sathya Sai Baba: Sathya Sai Baba, one of the influential spiritual guru's in India passed away in April this year. He led a life dedicated to philanthropy flawed by the occasional controversies. While he was looked at as the miracle man by his million followers, many thought of him otherwise. His followers not only included the ordinary people but also the sport and movie stars, politicians and many more. He has over 1500 Sathya Sai Centres in 114 countries across the globe. He is the founder of a large number of schools, colleges, hospitals and other charitable institutions in India and abroad. Millions mourned his death and paid their last tribute to the spiritual guru in his ashram.
M. F Hussain: Maqbool Fida Husain also known as MF received recognition as the Picasso of India, passed away in June this year. The 95 year old eminent painter was one of the most recognized Indian artists of the 20th century. A life riddled in controversy MF made the most timeless canvases. He was also known as a printmaker and photographer. He was internationally known for his narrative paintings. Hussain had expressed his love for Bollywood time and again and also had a lot of admirers in the film industry. The industry was deeply saddened at the loss of the prolific painter.
Rasika Joshi: The very noted theatre and film actor Rasika Joshi passed away in July. She suffered from cancer and died at a young age of 39. She gained popularity after her acting stint in Bollywood films like ''Malamal Weekly'', ''Ek Hasina Thi'' and ''Bhul-Bhullaiyya''.
Shammi Kapoor: Veteran actor Shammi Kapoor passed away in August. Known for his lively rock and roll and jive, Shammi was an ace lead actor and a great contributor to the Indian cinema. Entertainment would be the word to define the man. He jolted audiences out of their lethargy with his foot tapping numbers. Entertainer, Inspiration for style, Full of optimism and energy was what was recalled of Shammi Kapoor by the industry members as they spoke of the super star.
Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi: Former Indian cricket captain Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi passed away this September. Known as 'Tiger' in the cricket fraternity he played 46 Tests for the country, scoring 2793 runs for an average of 34.91 with an unbeaten 203 being his highest score. In total, he smashed six centuries and 16 fifties in his career. The Pataudi Trophy which is named after his family for their contribution to Anglo-Indian cricket has been contested for between India and England since 2007.Pataudi was the ninth and last Nawab of Pataudi since the Indian government abolished royal entitlements through the 26th Amendment to the Constitution.
Gautam Rajadhyaksha: September also witnessed the death of the famous celebrity photographer Gautam Rajadhyaksha. The versatile photographer captured most of the celebrities on his camera. He is also the cousin of writer Shobha De. The industry grieved the loss of the great man, writer Javed Akhtar said "Gautam was my friend from 70s. All childhood pictures of Zoya and Farhan in our albums are by him. He was like family to us. He is gone."
Jagjit Singh: The much-admired ghazal singer Jagjit Singh passed away in October this year. Known as 'The Ghazal King' Jagjit was a singer and composer. He sang in many languages including Hindi, Punjabi, Urdu, and Nepali. He also lent his voice for many film songs. He has also been awarded the Padma Bhushan award. Initially ghazal singing was considered as an elite art, which was difficult for the common mass to understand due to high class use of Urdu and Persian but Singh seemed to have changed this notion. His loss was mourned by the entire film industry and by the nation.
Sultan Khan: Classical singer and Sarangi genius Ustad Sultan Khan passed away in November. He won the Padma Bhushan award and was also the soulful voice behind hits like 'Piya basanti' and 'Albela sajan aayo re'. Khan was also a member of the Indian fusion group Tabla Beat Science along with Zakir Hussain and American bassist Bill Laswell. He was very well known for his extraordinary control over the instrument. His death was a great loss to the music industry. Musician Salim Merchant expressed his grief and said "I lost my ustad - ustad sultan khan, my guru, my friend and my idol. We will never have a sarangi maestro like him" as reported by PTI.
Bhupen Hazarika: Another music wonder, Bhupen hazarika was lost this year. He was a renowned lyricist, singer and composer. He was known for his magical compositions of traditional Assamese music and lyrics. His songs were featured in numerous Bollywood films. The entire industry mourned his loss. Actor Farooque Shaikh said "Bhupen Hazarika was a multi faceted talent" as reported by Hindustan Times.
Mario Miranda: Acclaimed cartoonist Mario Miranda expired this December. He was awarded the Padma Bhushan award. The legendary cartoonist immortalized by his depiction of Goan life had a humorous take on the world around him. His creations like Miss Numbupani and Miss Fonseca were regularly featured in 'Femina', 'Economic Times' and 'The Illustrated Weekly of India'. Goa Chief Minister Digambar Kamat said, "He was an eminent cartoonist of the country who took Goa to international level through his pen. The country has lost one of its best cartoonists" reported The Pioneer.
Dev Anand: The country faced the biggest loss in the death of Bollywood's very own Peter Pan, Dev Anand. With a legacy in Indian cinema he gained popularity as the Romance Hero in the 60's. He has acted in 114 Hindi films of which 110 have him play the main lead actor. He was also honored with the Padma Bhushan award. The Prime Minister said in a statement "He was an embodiment of long passion for acting and film-making. I join millions of his fans in mourning his death" as reported by TOI.


text: FSIN Chief Bobby Cameron addresses the media about the FSIN's role in protecting lands and waters in the Enbridge Line 3 Replacement project. Photo credit: Treaty 4 News. Protection of lands and water must be a priority for pipeline projects November 30, 2016 News (Whitecap Dakota Nation, Treaty 6 Territory) The Federation of Sovereign Indigenous Nations (FSIN) Executive says the protection of the land and water and consultation with First Nations must be top priorities during the construction of Enbridge's Line 3 Replacement Program (L3RP) pipeline project that crosses through Treaty Six and Treaty Four territories. "As projects like L3RP go forward it is crucial that stringent protections for the environment be put in place to protect our communities and that our First Nations concerns and recommendations are abided by based on our Inherent and Treaty Rights to lands and resources. As the original stewards of the land, First Nations will be a part of all resource development initiatives so our grassroots people, leaders, youth and future generations can benefit," said FSIN Chief Bobby Cameron in a press release. "It is in the best interest of us all, to learn from the Standing Rock experience and find solutions through consultation and accommodation. " Thirteen Indigenous groups from Saskatchewan participated in the National Energy Board (NEB) process including a number of First Nation communities. First Nations communities have expressed concern about the environmental protections on their reserve and traditional lands. The NEB report issued on April 25, 2016 on L3RP included 89 conditions and the Liberal government has made it mandatory for Enbridge to "meet and exceed" all 89 conditions. One condition was that Enbridge must develop a plan for First Nations to participate in monitoring the construction of the Line 3 pipeline replacement project. FSIN Vice-Chief Edward Dutch Lerat, responsible for the lands and resources portfolio, will work to ensure that Enbridge is transparent and inclusive when they work with the First Nations on monitoring the pipeline project, and will continue to play a role by providing information on development of the project, as well as raising issues or concerns of the First Nations in Saskatchewan. "In order for Enbridge to exceed the NEB conditions, particularly that it must develop a plan for First Nations to participate in monitoring the construction of the Line 3, it must also develop a process to ensure that First Nations' monitoring goes beyond the construction phase and includes an on-going operational monitoring process for the life of the pipeline. The traditional knowledge of our elders must be part of the monitoring process." The FSIN is currently participating in the four reviews with the Federal Government on the Environmental Assessment Process; modernization of the National Energy Board; review of the Fisheries Act; and review of the Navigation Protection Act. The FSIN is proposing the creation of a Section 35 Compliance Office and First Nations Monitoring office, which would provide technical capacity to First Nations in both the assessment and implementation stages of natural resource development projects.

Sign-up: 1987 Buick Regal T-Type WE4 - Remove Holograms - Black Paint Detailing
If you can make black paint look good you can make ANY paint look good!
Learn the art of polishing paint on Thursday, November 17th starting at 5:00pm at Autogeek's Show Car Garage!
Here's our training car,
1987 Buick Regal T-Type WE4
This is a very rare edition, less than 200 of this version were built. This car has,
- Aluminum Wheels
- Aluminum bumper brackets
- Aluminum rear brake drums
This car also has the Black Out Option which GM halted so the Buick T-Type would not compete with the Black Out Option for the Buick Grand National. This one slipped through the cracks.
This car was recently repainted basecoat/clearcoat and then sanded and cut. It has holograms in the paint from the cutting step so it needs to be professional re-polished to remove the holograms and create a true show car finish.

The new Madewell denim lookbook features two brunette models dressed nearly head-to-toe in exclusively jean material. The editorial takes a laid-back approach to a traditional photoshoot with the two models hanging around the city as if they were two best friends spending a day together.
The editorial captures the playful side to wearing jeans in the city. The models are decked out in classic Madewell skinny jeans in black, light and dark wash color hues. The jeans are paired with cute velvet kitten heels and sandals that give the jeans a more sophisticated look. Many of the shots focus in on the girls' rear ends to highlight the classic and tailored fit of the Madewell jeans.

Long Beach, CA (PressExposure) October 31, 2008 -- Now those who back Barack Obama can turn that old cell phone, winter coat, designer handbag or countless other items into cash for the campaign. * ObamaAuctions.com * is an eBay®-like site where Obama supporters pledge part or all of the proceeds from the items they put up for sale to the senatorâs fund.
âI was in Nevada helping the campaign when it struck me that the business I was about to launch could be used to grow Sen. Obamaâs donor-base,â said Keith Daniels, a Long Beach, CA., entrepreneur. âWeâve come to rely on sites like eBay to buy and sell things, but no one had merged that idea with their support of a candidate before. Once I had the idea, I had to do it.â
Daniels said most people have things of value around their home that they no longer use or items that they received as gifts that they donât want to re-gift that would be a great find for someone else. Many of them, especially those in high school or college as well as those just getting started in their careers, might like to support Obama financially but donât have the cash to spare.
* ObamaAuctions.com * gives them a place to turn their stuff into cash so they can send it to the campaign,â Daniels said. âVisitors to the site can find an item, read a short post where the seller says why they support him and see how much of the sale the seller promises to give to the campaign.â
Like other auction sites, a user must create an account to use the site. Daniels said he will waive any fees associated with the auction listings, for either the seller or the buyer, as another way to show his support for the campaign.
âThis isnât about making money,â Daniels said. âItâs about people being able to give as much as they can to the campaign.â
ObamaAuctions.com is powered by * MyEventPR.com *, the firm Daniels is about to launch. * MyEventPR.com * will be a social commerce site where individuals, businesses or organizations can set up their own auctions.

text: Over the past month or so, I've really noticed an increase in the number of players who firstly struggle in a tackle, then instead of standing on the mark to play the ball, take a step or two forwards and then put the ball down. The major problem is the tacklers, who jump up and try and take their place at marker are struggling to get there and consequently are getting pinged for either not being "square" or getting tangled up with the player playing the ball. If only one of the pinkies would penalise the attacking player for making it impossible for the tackler to get to marker. Souffs are serial offenders in this area. It was really obvious at Bluetongue and it hasn't gotten any better since. Anyone else notice this ?

How is the relationship of Candy and Candy's dog used by Steinbeck to explore the themes of the novel, OF MICE AND MEN?quotes and explanations are needed
- print Print
- list Cite
A Socialist and a Realistic writer, Steinbeck chose to deviate from the norm by writing not about the middle class, but instead about the poorer class who suffered terribly during the Great Depression. His novella Of Mice and Men chronicles the confusion and hopelessness of the lower class that found themselves dispossessed and alone in their struggles.
The old swamper, Candy, and his dog find themselves in this position of hopelessness and confusion, a theme of Of Mice and Men. With his one hand gone from a farming accident, Candy finds himself relegated to merely cleaning up the bunkhouse on the ranch. Consequently, he worries that he will outlast his usefulness and be "sloughed." When Carlson, the mechanic, enters the bunkhouse, complaining of the smell of the old dog, Candy becomes fearful as Carlson offers to put the dog out of its misery. Not only does Candy not wish to lose his old friend--his only companion--but he becomes anxious that a similar opinion has been formed about his own usefulness.
After the tragic end of his beloved pet, he relief that Candy feels when he is allowed to be part of George and Lennie's plan to own a place that will be theirs is, indeed, understandable. For, it is in the fraternity of man that the individual finds solace from the confusion of his isolation and hopelessness. Joined with George and Lennie, Candy has, as Crooks has observed, someone by whom he can "measure" himself; joined with others, Candy no longer feels hopeless as he envisions a future. Unfortunately, however, when Lennie accidentally kills Curley's wife, Candy again senses his terrible plight: He is again alone and faces the fate of his doomed dog.

Posted by Rosie on Mon May 13, 2013 17:22pm
We all grimace a little as the conversation turns to 'immersive' for the ninth time today. This reaction is becoming more common as the 'I word' gets bandied around in relation to everything from event design to theatre to ordering coffee. When it is good it is very very good and when it is bad it is horrid. I am the first to admit I am immersive-resistant, preferring to enjoy my entertainment from a measured introspective distance and so despite hearing rave reviews this is perhaps why I went into last night's Secret Cinema with more than a little trepidation.
Total convert. It was a seriously enjoyable night out. Once I got over the initial sheer panic of being separated from my friends with the prospect of having to improvise my way out I had a lot of fun. I quickly worked out that the more you put into the experience the more fun it was, to the point where if you stop for a moment you might suddenly become aware that lying on the floor spooning a complete stranger might be a little embarrassing - much better to keep the game going. As it turns out we didn't even watch the movie, instead spent four hours running around a fantastic adults' playground. There was so much to explore and the actors were eccentric and comedic without being intimidating or alienating. There was no pressure to participate but you were rewarded for doing so. This is definitely a gratifying experience even for the immersive-weary out there.
No spoilers, check it out for yourself. Tickets are available here.

The Poop Epiphany Podcast, Episode 18
Everybody cries, especially in The Crying of Lot 49, the topic of this week's podcast. It's our second shot at Pynchon, and this time we're breaking it up into two (maybe three!) episodes. For this one, we cover the first three chapters, from the opening sentence to the end of The Courier's Tragedy. It's an intense ride, and we bring a bunch of extra stuff into the discussion to make sense of the paranoia and madness.

I am apparently "casually dating" someone but I do not get what that means. I tried to ask for some sort of guideline, rules or explanation of what it means so that there would be no confusion but I could not get an answer. I am confused as to what exactly is going on.
Most Helpful Guy
I am going to surmise that it means there is no commitment from one or both parties, although it is still possible for a real relationship to come out of it.

In real life, these highly trained marksmen are capable of surviving alone in the wilderness for weeks on end. They dig little holes—or "nests," as they call them—and hang out there for a bit before popping up and putting a bullet through someone's skull from more than a mile away.
Artist Simon Menner was recently granted permission to spend some time with the German Army and its snipers. During the two occasions he visited, he captured the soldiers' remarkable ability to blend into their environment, producing images that appear to be simple landscape shots until you look close enough to spot the barrel of a gun.
I'll be honest: I couldn't even remotely come close to finding the sniper in any of these photos. Mind-boggling.

InternetNews is reporting that a Judge in Arkansas has thrown out 2 out of 3 claims in a lawsuit filed against Apple for poor iPhone 3G performance.
"Had Apple received notice from plaintiffs that the particular iPhones bought by them were defective, Apple could have taken a direct route toward fixing the alleged defects or could have reached a settlement with plaintiffs at a time before litigation expenses were incurred," the decision states. "Plaintiffs did not afford Apple statutorily guaranteed opportunities," according to the judge's ruling.
Smith and Trigg filed the suit August 19 shortly after purchasing the iPhone 3G device last summer.
The suit states the plaintiffs have suffered "significant monetary and non-monetary damages" due to the "defective" devices which allegedly do not provide promised data speeds and voice call connectivity promised in advertising. The complaint alleged breach of express warranty, breach of the implied warranty of merchantability and unjust enrichment.
The suit also requests class certification and was filed on behalf of the thousands who have purchased the new iPhone.
This shouldn't come as too much of a surprise. Back in September we analyzed the lawsuit against Apple and it was clear that the litigants had made no effort to mitigate their damages either by returning their iPhones or attempting to exchange them. Moreover, a large portion of the evidence relied upon by the plaintiffs were blogposts that became obsolete, so to speak, once Apple released software update 2.1. We noted a few weeks ago:
In the end, Apple is a company just like any other. Sometimes its products don't work as expected, but that's not to say that every lawsuit against them is warranted. Frivlous lawsuits ultimately result in higher prices for consumers, and only serve to put money in the pockets of lawyers. Again, this latest lawsuit against Apple seems to largely be based on a number of outdated blogposts, the majority of which were written in July of 2008, just 2-3 weeks after the iPhone 3G was launched. By skirting around the fact that the latest iPhone firmware update seems to have overwhelmingly fixed any remaining iPhone 3G reception problems, and by seemingly making no effort to return or exchange his iPhone, the Plaintiff in this case seems to have filed what can only be described as a frivolous lawsuit.

Worship Services
Sunday worship services are held at 8:30 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. each week.
Sunday School 9:45 a.m.
During each year, special services are held in the seasons of Advent, Christmas, Lent, and Easter.
The worship style at Emmanuel is traditional with blended styles of music. Each worship service is designed to offer our praise and thanks to God and to provide a meaningful and uplifting experience to all who are present.
Welcome to Emmanuel,
It is indeed a great privilege to serve as a pastor of Emmanuel United Methodist Church! The rich variety of Emmanuel's ministries, the effectiveness of its outreach, and the impact of its mission excite me as this congregation moves into new areas of service and witness.
The power of EUMC, however, does not begin with its programs and ministries, but with its people. It is a living fellowship of people seeking to live out their calling to follow Jesus Christ. We are part of the body of Christ, the embodiment of love, faith, and hope in the world. We can only fulfill that role as we express our love for God and for neighbor by loving and caring for one another.
Grace, peace, and love,
Wade Cox
Senior Minister
What We Believe
We believe Jesus Christ is the son of God, that he came into the world to save sinners, and that he was resurrected from the dead. We believe that his death is an atonement for the sins of the world. We believe in the Holy Trinity – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We believe that all that is necessary for salvation may be found in the scriptures.
Beyond the basic affirmations of Methodists (which we hold in common with all Christians*), Methodism has no set body of doctrine. John Wesley, our founder, said: "We think and let think."
Therefore, we accept all forms of baptism. Infant baptism is full baptism. We do not believe in re-baptizing persons who come from other denominations. Baptisms are made to God, not to a denomination.
We practice open communion and invite all persons to the Lord's Table, whether they are a member of any church or not.
For those coming to Methodism from other denominations, we ask only one question: "Will you be loyal to the United Methodist Church and support it with your prayers, your presence, your gifts, and your service?"
We do have Bishops in the United Methodist Church, but they do not hold theological authority. Bishops are administrative supervisors and spiritual leaders.
Most children come into Methodism when they are in the 6th grade and receive confirmation training.
Our History
What vision, faith, courage and commitment those early members displayed! The fruit of their labors has been witnessed by hundreds who have come Emmanuel's way and because of their generous efforts, people all over the world have benefited. Several of the Charter Members continue in their worship of Emmanuel today.
May we draw from their commitment to make sure Emmanuel continues as the warm, generous and committed church that commenced on that blessed day in 1968.

Agnes is a gorgeous doll. I feel very lucky to have her. I asked myself, "How can you see this and not want to have her in your collection?" So she was a no-brainer. It was difficult to scrape up the $$ for her but I managed it (selling parts of my collection) and I am glad I did!
This is her default appearance:(photos property of Integrity Toys)
She's lovely, right? Yes.
I love her color combinations (I'm not usually a huge fan of blonde dolls) but this one works for me. And for the personality I think she will have in my photostories. That said, IMO she needs a little tweaking. Look at her eyes:
She is suffering from Upward Eyes Syndrome — that thing that makes the doll look like she is either rolling her eyes or getting ready to pass out. It is a personal pet peeve of mine and it is something I compulsively fix on my dolls.
So her eyes need tweaking. Check.
What about her lip color? Her eyelashes/eyeliner?
I'm not sure about those yet. The lips are a much starker, brighter red than in the promo pics. It's not a horrible red…just not my particular favorite. Part of me would like to do her lips in a soft rose/nude because I think it would look great with her coloring and also lend itself to being more casual. I'm not sure though…
Anyway, just wanted to share.

The Zombies Are Coming! The Zombies Are Coming!
Take some time to check out Troll in the Corner. They've got some intriguing content on their website.
I was first clued in about this company via a Pathfinder book giveaway contest. It's sort of an Internet honey-do list. Visit here. Like this. Follow that. Complete the instructions, and you get a chance to win nifty Pathfinder stuff, including three hardback books: the bestiary, the core rule book, and the GameMastery Guide. You can read all about this spiffy contest by clicking on this sentence.
If you're not into contests, I heartily recommend you check out the World of Aruneus patronage project. This looks like some good zombie-smashing fun. Makes me wish I had a full-time job so that I could jump in at least the $10 level.

Wicked Weekend #8
I am in love and I want to scream it from the rooftops!
No, I am not going to tell you how wonderful PT is. Although, he is pretty darn fantastic! Definitely a keeper, or as I heard someone else say yesterday, "I have too much time invested in him….I'm not getting rid of him".
My love affair is with CAKE POPS!
I have wanted to make them to see what all of the hubbub was about…but never found the appropriate time. I needed an occassion, because WE ALL know I have an addiction to cake, and if there wasn't a crowd to eat them, they would all find there sweet little way into my stomach. So…..2 years after hearing about them…I finally made them!
I am in love…..cake and icing in one bite…..OH MY!!!
I have seen the cake pop machines on the market….DON'T BUY THEM…..save your cabinet space for storing something more important, like a food processor, a mixer…more candy melts, almond bark and chocolate. Hmmmm, seems like my mind is in the gutter again….the confection gutter that is! If you use the machine, you won't have the frosting already mixed in with the cake. That would be a shame!!
Follow the steps in the picture to see how easy it is. For a complete listing of ingredients and directions, scroll to the bottom. Make these with your kids for Mother's Day! You won't regret it!
This first picture is the crumbled cake and the frosting before being mixed together and blended.
This is what the crumbled cake and frosting looks like after being mixed together. Wrap it with saran wrap and put in the refrigerator for a minimum of 1 hour (overnight works too).
Using 1 Tbsp (you can use up to 2 Tbsp, but be careful, the pop might become too heavy and slide down the stick) form your ball. After melting almond bark, dip the lollipop stick 1/2 inch and insert into the cake ball. This will act as the sealer and lock the ball with the lollipop stick. Put back in the refrigerator to set up for a few minutes.
Dunk the cake pop into the almond bark. I did 2 different versions. The chocolate coating went onto the red velvet cake pops (use red velvet cake mix and 1/3 cup cream cheese frosting to form your balls), and I used white almond bark for the chocolate cake pops (recipe below). It was a little tricky trying to take pictures of this step solo.
I dunked the cake pop head first and then tilted it at an angle and twirled it to get all sides coated evenly. Tap gently on the side of the bowl to remove any excess chocolate. I will admit, I was too harsh on a few and they plopped right into the chocolate bath. Oh the shame of it…..mistakes happen….perfect excuse to sample a few! Go ahead….you deserve it!
I swore I took a picture of them resting in the styrofoam block. Guess not. Please envision them lined up in a few styrofoam blocks (I covered each with saran wrap).
Not bad for a rookie cake popper! I took these to B's team hockey banquet. Told you I needed a crowd to eat them. Unfortunately, way too many of them made their way into my stomach……my butt and thighs ARE NOT thanking me, but my taste buds sure did! HA!
I made my first batch mid April, and have since made another (tried to do the baseball stitching….I wasn't too happy with them so swapped it out for red swirls. Not giving up, just need to practice more). K's baseball team didn't care that the baseball's weren't perfect.
Can you believe that I have two more batches waiting for me as we speak. What am I thinking???? My hips are screaming at me. In my defense, my CF memory card became corrupted….more on that later…..and I thought that the above pictures hadn't been transferred to the computer yet. I had to recreate the baseball's didn't I? Oops, I found them just a few minutes ago. Oh well, it gives me a chance to work on the "stitches", plus work on University logos. Miami just had their graduation, red and white happen to be their colors. I am thinking of adding in accents of black and silver….. stay tuned!!
I can't wait to use my own cake recipes to play around with the flavor combinations. I also need to try my hand at creating animals and other 3D effects. My friend CW just made the cutest owls! I have visions of Elmo and monster character's. Little kids will love those!
What do you think of them?????
(Makes 30-40)
Chocolate Cake mix (or you can use your favorite cake recipe)
1/3 – 1/2 container vanilla frosting (you can also use homemade buttercream)
Almond Bark, chocolate and vanilla
Candy melts, if you are wanting your cake pops to be pastel or vibrant colors
Lollipop sticks
Nonpareil or rainbow sprinkles
Styrofoam block
* Bake your cake according to the instructions on the back of the box. Cool Completely.
* In large bowl, break the cake into small crumbles. You can use a food processor for this, but why dirty another dish….just use your hands.
* Mix in frosting and stir/mix (or use your hands) until every crumb of cake has been coated. Your cake will resemble the consistency of peanut butter. Store in the refrigerator for at least one hour. Tip: Make this a two-step process. Get to this step, and let the cake mixture hang out with all of its friends in the refrigerator overnight. Next day, you can finish the rest of the process.
* Make 1 Tbsp balls with the cake mixture and lay them on a parchment lined cookie sheet. Put back in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
* In a double boiler (go to Dunkable s'mores to learn how to do this) melt your almond bark or candy melts. Take your cake balls out of the refrigerator, dip one end of the lollipop stick into the melted almond bark (about 1/2 inch), and stick in the cake ball pushing down at least 3/4 of the way into the ball. This will keep the ball from falling off the stick when it is getting coated. Put back in refrigerator for 15-30 minutes.
* Dunk each ball into the almond bark, coating the top and sides. Tap the lollipop stick gently on the side of the double boiler, removing any excess almond bark. Push stick in a styrofoam block. At this time, decorate with your sprinkles. If you are wanting to decorate with chocolate or icing, then skip the sprinkles. Repeat with the remaining cake pops. Let cake pops set up for approximately 45 minutes before handling.
* Store in the refrigerator until ready to use.

Amber is found in many countries
Many people consider amber as a stone because we usually see amber in hard form and people use amber in ornaments like stones. Amber is an organic material that is made from a fossil tree resin. The tree from which amber is taken is very soft and sticky so amber can be molded in different forms and shapes. Similarly, there are many uses of amber and it is used by ornament industry for making fabulous jewelry items. Besides, amber is also used by perfume making industry because amber provides a very unique odor and it is liked by many people. Amber can also be used medically and this usage of amber has been there since ages because amber is regarded as a very good healing agent.
Word amber has been taken from an Arabic word and usage of this substance is not new. People in B.C. used to use this substance and it is said that word electricity was taken from the Greek word of amber because it glows. Amber is soluble in alcohol and fire melts it because it oxidizes on exposure to oxygen. Amber can be found washed up on beaches of some countries like New Zealand and this substance is less dense than stones. Amber can be found from America to Africa but Baltic
area is the origin of this substance because amber was the first discovered in Prussia.
Amber is present in many countries of the world like Myanmar, Malaysia, Germany, Romania and North America but Russia is the greatest source for providing amber and it is considered that Russia has ninety percent of the world reserves of amber. We usually get amber in liquid form because it is a fossilized tree resin and the tree is very soft. Amber is usually mined from rocks and it is washed in different revolving barrels that have sand and water because sand is considered as the best source for washing amber.
There are many types, kinds and classes of amber and there are the two main types of amber that are called terpenoids and phenolic. Phenolic type of amber is extracted from angiosperms and is used for functional uses. There are five different classes of amber according to their chemical composition. Class I of amber is the most abundant class that comprises of carboxylic acid and it is further divided into a having succinic acid which gives irritating fume on burning. B of class I of amber does not have succinic acid and c is Dominican amber. Class II of amber is formed from cadinene and class III have polystyrenes. Whereas, class IV of amber is not polymerized and class V is produced by a pine.
Amber can be shaped into many kinds and forms and natural Baltic amber is the kind of amber that does have the natural properties without any chemical change in them. Modified Baltic amber is the kind of amber that is prepared in a unit under high pressure. Whereas, reconstructed Baltic amber is prepared in a plant by adding certain components in that. Bonded Baltic amber is made by using a colorless bonding agent in very small amount.

The economy of the Internet: Distributed, we stand
Internet = Connectivity
The Internet is an incredible facilitator. It helps humans find information, form groups around common interests, and do commerce. But the Internet is not a library, not a coffee shop, not a store; it's just a network. But it's a network that industrious people use to connect with each other. This function in itself is what makes the Internet the defining technology of our age.
Distributed – Connected – Associated
In his video on network literacy, prof. Howard Rheingold explains why the Internet is so powerful (Rheingold). Despite the technology, it turns out – it's us! The greatness of the Internet is mostly in that it connects lots of people. And when people connect, stuff gets generated. People make the Internet the greatest innovations incubator ever. That's social capital: The ease with which people can form groups. The key is all people are free to access the network equally. This is the condition under which creativity thrives on the Internet.
What Rheingold wants us to think about is: What does the Internet become if it's not structured openly, so anyone can connect to anyone? The Internet fundamentally is a commons – a place to meet, exchange and flourish. Imagine what the Internet becomes if a small number of powerful organizations control the connectivity. The Internet would become a series of portals to access directories of corporate services. You'd still get everything you needed, but you'd get it through organized commerce. And you wouldn't get the same creative laboratory that exists under the Internet as a commons.
The new economy
The beauty about the Internet is, by offering connectivity, it sustains and encourages human activity. The beauty about it being a commons is that everyone can collaborate with anyone. The beauty about the Net is the potential for small businesses to support one another, for people to buy from people, on their own terms and therefore bypassing bureaucracy, institutions or multinationals.
If the Net can't be an open commons, then what worth would it have as a network?
Do you want your Internet experience to look like this web of connections? Or do you want a line connecting your node to a dozen corporate portals?
Rheingold, Howard. "Network Literacy" YouTube. Howard Rheingold: 13 Feb. 2011. Online video. 27 Sept. 2013.
Ninjas vs. Professionals
There was once a time where anyone who could sign up for an account on Facebook could call him or herself a social media expert. Better yet, they'd call themselves social media "ninjas" or "mavens" despite lacking professional skills and experience. Today, most recruiters and hiring managers are interested in finding professionals that can use social media strategically and deliver results.
But the myth that anyone that can use social media, can use it professionally, still persists. That's why we created this infographic detailing why organizations should be looking for social media professionals rather than so-called "ninjas".

Individuals or businesses can check out one or more of the following:
Paper recycling, whether at curbside or a drop-off sites, is generally very simple. On rainy days, don't place newspaper, corrugated boxes and any other paper materials out because it will get wet. That's important because when the recycling facility is processing the paper for sale, they have to keep wet paper to a minimum because the paper mill buying the paper doesn't want to pay for waterlogged materials. Corrugated containers and boxes should be broken down before being placed at curbside or at the drop-off site.
Do not recycle the following paper products at curbside or at the drop-off site:
Cereal boxes and other similar food container boxes are actually made of chipboard or paperboard. It is not the quality of paper fiber that recycling facilities nor paper mills will normally purchase. Chipboard has little or no fiber value as a recycled material and is often a contamination issue for paper mills. Generally it has been recycled once before so just toss it out so not to contaminate the other materials.
Generally speaking - no. First, the community's program must be collecting corrugated containers as part of their recycling program. Secondly, it will depend on the condition of the pizza box. If the box has a fair quantity of grease and food on the bottom or top, then throw it out. If there is little or no grease or food on the box, throw in the recycling bin. It's really a judgement call, but when in doubt, throw it out. Grease and food contaminated corrugated containers is a big issue at most paper mills.
Several communities in the state have annual collection events for telephone book recycling. These are generally open for participation by the general public and businesses in the community. Contact the city hall, or the solid waste department in the community to find out if there is an existing program. Additionally, people can contact Keep Mississippi Beautiful or local affiliate or the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality's Recycling and Solid Waste Reduction Program to learn about any collection programs for telephone book recycling.
White office paper is one of the highest grades of consumer paper. This is followed by corrugated containers, newspapers, mixed paper and magazines.
