Are you wanting help for your relationship?
Every couple has a moment when they start to fight more than they talk, feel bored and numb, fear things won't get better or have a betrayal or breach in trust.

The pumpkin is lovely as it is a squat round full iridescent orange pumpkin freshly cut from the vine made out of glass. The stem is a deep emerald green and is applied to the top of the pumpkin. It has texture as if the stem is still in the drying out process and has a long curly cue of the vine still attached. There are 12 vertical ribs on the pumpkin that are raised and surround the piece. This pumpkin is charming and could also be used as a paperweight for anytime of year, not just the Halloween or fall enthusiast.
The pumpkin is considered to be in excellent condition as there are no cracks, chips, nicks or dings. The paperweight is not signed however this is a quality piece of contemporary American art glass and I am sure even the collector of early art glass not be disappointed with their purchase.

Moms with Teens
They say "Mom knows best".
Do you ever go to your mom/parents for advice when dealing with your teens?
by MusherMaggieJune 18, 2013 at 2:52 PMI didn't because my mother especially was way too much in my business already about how I was parenting. My MIL was that way when we were around them. I felt like I had to prove I could parent.
by lnrmomJune 18, 2013 at 2:54 PM
No. Not at all.
by Txlisa7969June 18, 2013 at 2:57 PM
I did with my Mom but she has been gone almost 7 years now. There are days I wish I still had her wisdom. She was one of those that would only offer advice if asked and was never pushy. My Dad I don't go to very often since I am dealing with two teen girls. His reply to most things would be "Lock them up till they are 30" lol. He did give me an amazing compliment the other day. He said he was very proud of the way I was raising my children and that he thought I was a great Mom.
by mumsy2threeJune 18, 2013 at 3:17 PM
I go to my mom to vent more than to get advice. My mom did her best to raise us but most of her time was spent working to keep a roof over our head, in clothing and fed. My brother and I learned a lot from natural consequences.
June 18, 2013 at 3:20 PM
No, not for my teen. My oldest (the teenager) is the oldest grandchild and the obvious favorite of my parents, so I would never go to them for advice about him.
by BertiebJune 18, 2013 at 3:21 PM
Mine have passed away but I did a little. Usually I didn't want my mom to know troubling stuff though!
by MJP76June 18, 2013 at 3:47 PM
No. My parents were shirty parents.
by 02nana07June 18, 2013 at 7:03 PM
My dad died of cancer when I was 2 and my mother was everything I didn't want to be as a parent so no I never have.
by wakymomJune 18, 2013 at 7:28 PM
I haven't yet, but would if I felt the need to.

Im not opposed to tipping for certain services, e.g taxi cabs, food service, and strippers. But tipping has gotten completely out of control. Anywhere i go i feel like i have to tip somebody because there is a tip jar. Jesus, so I have to tip when I go to the record store and buy a record, get a tattoo, refill my growler at the refill station, or tip the person who puts my medical marijuana in one of those green plastic jars. Tipping my budtender is like tipping my pharmacist at Walgreens, really?! I Went to the deli, ordered small amount cup of cole slaw and a tiny slab of meat, oh dear you took you 3 mins to package it, guess you deserve a tip. Fuck off, i work at home and sit on my ass making art all day , when i sell something in a gallery do I get a tip for my services, Hell No!, So Fuck You and You Tips.

Carlo Ancelotti wants to see Liverpool striker Luis Suarez at Real Madrid this summer.Marca says Suarez - who hopes to be fit for this month's World Cup despite a knee injury - is Florentino Perez's top target.
And the Real president has told Ancelotti that he will sanction a move should the manager want him.
Any deal for Suarez wouldn't have an impact on the future of Karim Benzema at the Bernabeu.
The Frenchman is a long-term target for Arsenal but Ancelotti has insisted that he sees him as a key man up front.

Prosecutors said Wengui Yan and Weiqiang Zhang arranged for a Chinese delegation to visit the U.S. this year and that customs agents found stolen seeds in the delegation's luggage before the group flew back to China. Yan, of Stuttgart, Arkansas, and Zhang, of Manhattan, Kansas, are charged with conspiracy to steal trade secrets. Zhang's hearing is set for Tuesday in Kansas. Attorneys for the men didn't immediately respond to emails seeking comment on Friday. Also this week, prosecutors in Iowa said six men from China including the CEO of a seed corn subsidiary of a Chinese conglomerate have been charged with conspiring to steal patented seed corn from two of America's leading seed developers. It wasn't immediately clear if the cases in Kansas and Iowa are related. But seed developers spend millions of dollars a years to develop new varieties and carefully protect them against theft to maintain a competitive advantage. Yan worked for the U.S. Department of Agriculture as a research geneticist at the Dale Bumpers National Rice Research Center in Arkansas, and Zhang worked as an agricultural seed breeder for a biopharmaceutical company that has a production facility in Junction City, Kansas, according to a court document filed Thursday in Kansas. Prosecutors only identified the business where Zhang worked as Company A, but said the business invested about $75 million in technology used to create seeds. "If this technology was compromised or the seeds were stolen, Company A believes its entire research and development investment would be compromised," an FBI special agent wrote in a court document. Zhang allegedly took seeds that his employer had grown and kept them at his home in Kansas. Someone at the crop research institute in China contacted Yan about plans for a delegation to visit the U.S., according to court documents. Yan and Zhang arranged for the delegation to come this year, and when it was preparing to fly back to China, customs agents found a number of seeds in their luggage, according to court documents. Some were in envelopes while others were lodged in makeshift containers, including a newspaper page that had been folded in the shape of an envelope, according to the documents. If convicted, Zhang and Yan could face up to 10 years in federal prison and a fine of up to $250,000. Click here to read the full statement from the District of Kansas U.S. Attorney's office.

Key resources
Development of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander physical activity web resource recognises the importance of physical activity to many aspects of health, particularly cardiovascular disease. Recent research confirms that the health benefits of physical activity are much broader than thought previously. As well as being important in the prevention of cardiovascular disease, physical activity contributes to:
All these health issues contribute to the relatively poor health status of Indigenous peoples, so an increase in physical activity among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people could play a major role in improving health status.
New information and materials relevant to physical activity among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are added to this web resource progressively, and in time it will be expanded to include: reviews and background information; policies and strategies; programs, projects and lessons; guidelines; health promotion resources; publications; and information about and links to relevant organisations and other agencies. It also provides links to related HealthInfoNet pages - including ones on cardiovascular disease, diabetes and nutrition - and links to a new HealthInfoNet web resource about overweight and obesity among Indigenous peoples.
Development of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander physical activity web resource is being undertaken by the Australian Indigenous HealthInfoNet with the support of the National Heart Foundation of Australia, which has generously provided initial funding to get the resource underway.

Kent Erickson, president of Pointivity, a San Diego solution provider that has successfully navigated the treacherous transition to cloud services, urged solution providers at the XChange Solution Provider conference Monday to take their fate in their own hands and fully embrace the cloud as cloud integrators.
Erickson said solution providers have a rare "blue ocean" high-margin opportunity if they transform their businesses to act as cloud integrators focused on business outcomes for clients rather than point product-focused providers. "This is a huge opportunity for all of you and that opportunity is growing," said Erickson, rallying partners to pick up the cloud integrator mantle. "This is a huge market. It is not going to be fulfilled, even if we all go after it."
Erickson said cloud integrators, in effect, "aggregate and integrate cloud services, while adding their own value and knowledge of the clients business which allows them to deliver a complete custom solution."
Erickson, an 18 year IT solution provider veteran, made the changes 11 years ago to radically transform his own company from a product-based business focused on capital budget IT projects to a cloud services business focused on business outcomes.
In 1999, Pointivity had 165 employees generating $16 million in annual sales based on capital expenditure IT projects. Today, Pointivity has 29 employees generating $15 million in sales and is twice as profitable selling customers three-year contracts to consume IT as a service.
"We have a model where you don't have any risk," said Erickson. "It is the future. You only incur an expense when you book revenue. The new metric is how much revenue you drive per employee. You are no longer focused on services employee utilization rates. This is an opportunity to revolutionize how the business is organized with small, highly-profitable teams." A 25 person systems integrator focused on capital expense based IT projects today may be a nine person company as a cloud integrator of the future, said Erickson. "Think of organizing your business with no expenses unless there is revenue," he exclaimed."Technical employees in the future will be tied to business outcomes not managing servers."
The first step for partners is defining themselves as cloud integrators that can educate customers on the benefits of the cloud services model. "Do you think there is room for education in the cloud?" Erickson asked partners. "Big time! Education is power. Knowledge is power. It gives you the ability to go out and have tremendous influence."

Below is an excerpt from the latest Market Trends newsletter, HSH.com's weekly look at how the economy influenced mortgage rates and the real estate market. Sign up and receive the newsletter Friday night in your inbox.
In the end, after much distraction and hundreds of millions of dollars spent, it is four more years for the existing Obama administration. With the distraction of the election finally over, perhaps some attention can be turned toward the impending fiscal cliff–changes to health care and taxes, implementation of rules governing (and perhaps even reform of) the mortgage market and more.
Change at the top or not, several things are firmly in place and going nowhere fast, and all have an influence on mortgage rates.
Most importantly, the economy remains in a low-growth funk, the Federal Reserve is continuing to buy up mortgage-backed securities and inflation remains at temperate levels. At the moment, there are few indications that these items will change anytime soon, but there may be risks on the horizon.
Mortgage rates decline
HSH.com's broad-market mortgage tracker–our weekly Fixed-Rate Mortgage Indicator (FRMI)–revealed that the overall average rate for 30-year fixed-rate mortgages declined last week by three basis points (0.03 percent) to 3.68 percent, matching a previous record low.
Meanwhile, the FRMI's 15-year companion moved lower by the same three basis points (.03 percent) to slip to 2.99 percent, under the 3 percent mark for the first time.
FHA-backed 30-year FRMs eased by four hundredths of a percentage point, as the most viable option for credit- or equity-impaired borrowers saw its average slip to 3.31 percent.
The overall average rate for 5/1 Hybrid ARMs held firm at 2.72 percent, a value attained in four of the past five weeks.
Also worthy of note is that with a four basis point decline, jumbo 30-year fixed-rate mortgages broke below the 4 percent barrier for the first time.
Mortgage applications are down
Some back-and-forth movement is often typical in volumes of mortgage applications as they wax and wane with gains and dips in interest rates and other conditions.
However, with average rates just a handful of basis points above record lows, we are left to ponder the recent declines in applications for mortgages. The Mortgage Bankers Association reported a fifth straight weekly decline in apps, and while purchase applications have gone up and down over that period, applications for refinancing have gone only down, and are near a six-month low. With a typical holiday slowdown in activity coming before long, we would hope to see a flare higher in applications before the quiet period sets in.
Mortgage rates could continue to decline
With the excitement, noise and distraction of election season behind us, we're left with the still-stark reality of the economy to face. While no doubt in a better place than during the middle of the year, and possibly on an improving bent, there isn't all that much to produce any kind of rampant enthusiasm at the moment.
While mortgage rates will continue to remain steady this week, we might see a little decline. The stock market selloff of the past couple of days has pushed some money back into bonds, driving yields down, and there may also be a little downward pull from a lack of demand for mortgage credit, too. The continued fall in apps might just serve to make some lenders price a little more aggressively to get more folks in the door.

[UPDATE: A protest will be on Tuesday night and the official meeting is on Wednesday night. And here's the Second Angle video that's just been posted. And Lilian Kim from ABC7 KGO-TV is all over this with a chat from the videographer who was on the scene. Oh, and the reason why I made this post yesterday is because the IndyBay crowd seemed a little confused over the existence of a gun – this might seem obvious now but it sure as heck wasn't 24 hours ago. And I'll agree with them that whatever got picked up after 1:15 doesn't look like a gun. (And it seems to be in a different location as well. I'm still baffled over this one…) And here's the SFPD SpotShotter map, just released.]
You can see video of the aftermath of yesterday's SFPD shooting of Kenneth Harding at Third Street and Oakdale on YouTube here, here, and here. (It's the same 3:28-length video, AFAIK.)
Here's the scene at 0:15:
Does that look like a handgun? [Something like a silver Taurus Millenium PT138?]
[UPDATE 7-28-11: Oh, here it is, per the SFPD:
A little rusty from Seattle's climate? Could be, don't know.]
Click to expand
At 1:15, somebody picks up something that was in the same general area, but that particular thing doesn't particularly look like a handgun. It looks like something flat and rectangular.
I don't know anything about this case, don't know anything about this video or any gun or who picked up what or who put something where.
I'm baffled.
[UPDATE: Here's a comment on this issue that was just posted a few moments ago here:
@chuckdamailman You're talking about 1:23 into the video. That's not a handgun…it's a small rectangle object and I heard from some that it was his cell phone. Trust me, no gun would be that close to the police and they allow it to stay there. Ahmad770 21 minutes ago
@Ahmad770 15 seconds in bro.. there's a gun on the bottom right corner. not to say it was this young man's weapon, because it could have been anybody's gun. I'm just saying there is a gun in the video. this type of thing frustrates me to the point where I would like to do something. I won't say what that something is. These punk cowards are KILLING our youngsters out here!!! chuckdamailman 3 minutes ago]
[UPDATE: The SFPD weighs in. Oh, and they'll have a community meeting in the Bayview on this topic sometime this week, it's planned.
"Information on the Officer Involved Shooting
Posted Date: 7/17/2011
On Saturday, July 16, 2011 at 4:44pm two uniformed San Francisco Police officers were assigned to a fixed post at Third Street and Palou Street as part of a violence reduction program, in response to recent shootings in the area.
Information is still preliminary. The officers detained a 19 year old male suspect on the Muni light rail platform. This suspect then ran from the police officers who pursued him on foot. It appears that the suspect was armed with a gun and fired at the pursuing officers. At least one of the officers returned fire, in self defense, wounding the suspect. The suspect was transported to the hospital with life threatening injuries. He was pronounced deceased at 7:01 pm.
No officers were injured in this incident. The matter remains under investigation by the Internal Affairs Division (Officer Involved Shooting Team), the San Francisco District Attorney's Office, the Office of Citizen's Complaints and the SFPD Homicide Detail."]

The 3rd Army Living Historians were asked to keep the Patton Show a secret for this part of the event and give a historical overview of the 13th AD and 3rd Army. The historical presentation was part display, part lecture, part power point slide show and part show in tell. The combination was so well done it captivated the well over 100 plus in attendance and brought back great memories of World War II. So not to give anything away we all dressed with no rank and gave the presentation free of any trappings of General Patton.
There were many kids and grand kids of the veterans who attended and all said they learned a lot and had a great time. The veterans went by the displays and told their loved ones how they remembered many of the things in the display. Cpl. Dan Vreeland reproduced post cards of the period telling about the 13th Armored "Blackcats" Div. They were so popular that he gave all he had made away to them.
He also gave an impromptu talk on the GI footlocker that was well received and got both applause and laughter as he explain briefly about GI briefs.
MSgt Michael Maloney gave several great talks on several aspects of the M1 Garand and the 30 Cal. Water Cooled Browning MG.
Chaplain Stewart explained the history of the Patton prayer and prayer of the 3rd Army during Bastogne and before. TSgt Bill White helped with the displays and power point display while Pvt. Ditto, this his first event, wore a period tanker uniform and helped with the displays.
Denny Hair did the historical power point presentation as Ray Marino help. Lt. Francine Stewart and Lynn Ditto were pressed into service as Third Army Photographers. It is these "volunteered" ladies' photographs that are attached to this AAR of the event. They did a magnificent job!
The 13th AD event coordination and President of the 13AD Association said that we presented the finest history of their unit that had ever been given and even they learned a great deal they did not know.
The Patton Show at the 13th AD Banquette
This was a complete surprise. There were close to 200 in attendance and they had no idea that General Patton and his 3rd Army would be coming to the banquette. Just after the serving of the main dish, the lights dimmed and a siren began to howl. This was our cue to enter. We want to thank Lt. Stewart and Lynn Ditto for pulling off the entrance for us with the lights and siren. It went letter perfect. The audience looked around and had no idea what was going on. The door burst open, M.Sgt. Maloney called the room to attention and in walked the 3rd Army MP Honor Guard and General Patton. Immediately an applause went out, salutes were exchanged and the Patton Show began. The MP's milled throughout the crown with their Thompson Sub machine guns and M1 Garands affixed with bayonets. The 13th AD were mesmerized, as we were told later. Parts of the Famous Speech were given and then the veterans were addressed as the 13AD had honored as the true heroes they really are.
After the Third Army Show and speech presentation, the 13th Armored had the award and recognition ceremonies. Then General Patton was asked up again for a question and answer period. Many questions and answers were exchanged, much to the veteran and loved ones liking. The entire audience stood and gave a stirring standing ovation to the 3rd Army and the Patton Living Historians. Afterward the 13th AD Event Chairwoman Jo Ellen Bender, addressed the 13th AD and said she had search far and wide to find a proper and historical General Patton and presentation and believed that they had been fortunate enough to find the finest one in the world. The entire 13AD and families again erupted into applause.
13th Armored Division "Black Cats" and Third Army Living Historians
Afterwards we all posed for photographs. This lasted quite awhile as everyone wanted their pictures taken with the 3rd Army Historians. When the veteran group shot was taken, the veterans asked us to be in their picture. This was a high honor for us to be included in this photograph.
A Special Commendation goes out to Col Ray Marino had worked tirelessly on getting us this opportunity for over a year and his efforts paid off. When he was able to explain to Jo Ellen Bender what we were all about, she saw the web site and talked with the General, no other would have done. Her parting words to us was to please use her name and recommendation and that she would spread the word that we were the ones to call for anything to do with General Patton and his Third Army.
If you missed this event you missed a world class event, as we were told by some of the 13th AD participants.

El Sabor
years ago, the Wall Street Journal
asked famous chefs how they deal
with people at a dinner party
who can't eat certain foods. Julia
Child responded with unflappable
poise "simply un-invite them."
Her answer shocked foodies who
could imagine nothing more humiliating
than being uninvited from a cherished
place at the table of the grand
dame of French cooking. Picky
eating suddenly was out of vogue.
Soon afterwards, a new breed
of chef hit celebrity status with
extreme food adventures. Tony
Bourdain consumed the beating
heart of a cobra on the Food Network
and Andrew Zimmern dedicated his
entire Travel Channel series,
"Bizarre Foods," to outdoing Bourdain.
Lyall Watson and Fergus Henderson
wrote best sellers — at least
in Europe — about eating every
single part of an animal, with
I've been trying my best to
acquire new tastes. So when I
heard about Maria Ortiz's sopa
de patas at the El Salvadoran
café El Sabor Latino, I
girded my loins and set out to
add another extreme notch to my
belt. I was served a reprieve
on my first effort. Sopa de patas
is so difficult to prepare that
Maria only makes it on Saturdays.
It's so popular that her son-in-law
and waiter Ezekiel explained —
"It's ready at 11 a.m. and if
you want some, you'd better be
here by 3 o'clock, because it
sells out fast."
In Los Angeles and Central America,
sopa de patas is regarded as the
ultimate hangover cure. Also known
as "menudo-plus," it's a screaming
bowl of tripe and cows feet augmented
with familiar vegetables like
carrots, potatoes, cabbage cores,
onions, chilies and tomato, plus
some unfamiliar fruits and vegetables
like plantain, yucca, loroco and
hard corn. There was probably
something else I couldn't identify.
My bowl came with a huge amount
of cow gut and ankle tendon. Alas,
I am no Andrew Zimmern. I loved
the broth and ate all my veggies,
but I didn't even begin to get
through the generous serving of
animal parts.
El Sabor has plenty to offer
less daring diners, too. I settled
my stomach with plantain-filled
empanadas, a delightful reward
for taking one's medicine. The
pupusa is the hamburger of El
Salvador, the dish that best represents
the national culture. Fairs and
farmers markets have familiarized
many Iowans with them, but Maria's
will convert new believers. They
are made, like all her corn-derived
dishes (including extra thick
dinner tacos) with fresh masa
— lime soaked cornmeal paste.
Like French fries, pupusas should
be eaten fresh off the griddle,
while their outside is still hot
and fluffy and their filling (cheese,
loroco, bean or chicharron) is
molten. El Sabor's service delivered
smoking hot pupusas with both
a hot and a cold salsa rojo (milder
than Mexican salsas) plus a jar
of "curtido," a vinegary slaw
of cabbage, carrots and onions.
In most Mexican restaurants, chicharron
means crispy pork rinds that look
like potato chips on steroids.
El Sabor's chicharron had more
meat on the skin and softer texture.
I also enjoyed excellent beef
stew, tamales steamed in banana
leaves and a sandwich so good
that Ezekiel made one for himself
when he prepared mine — a chicken
torta, with roasted breast meat
in sweet hot slaw on a fresh hoagie
style bun.
I saved the best news for last.
El Sabor serves breakfast anytime,
and it's one of the best in town,
with fresh avocado and Salvadoran
(sour) cream, black bean frijoles,
fried plantains and salsa accessorizing
eggs and sausage. El Sabor serves
cane sugar soft drinks, including
home made horchata, but no alcohol.
Side dishes
Gateway Market is now selling
Lost Hills Farm's Wagyu beef,
all at least 75 percent Wagyu
(the USDA requires only 50 percent
for the aegis) $7/pound for burger
and $60/pound for rib-eyes or
N.Y. cuts… Fred Horstman of Pleasant
Hill took first place in whole
hog and second place overall at
World Pork Expo's BarBQlossal.

Gareth Bale's Real Madrid signing presentation was marred yesterday by fans protesting the sale of Mesut Ozil. Over 30,000 Madridistas attended Bale's signing ceremony at the Santiago Bernabeu, just as Ozil's sale to Arsenal was going through.
"Don't sell Ozil! Don't sell Ozil!" chanted Real fans when president Florentino Perez took the podium.
But is was all too late for the Real support, with Ozil having passed his medical in Munich and agreed terms with the Gunners over a €800,000-a-month deal.

Afghan Security Forces close out Kalak Hode Story by 1st. Lt. Cari Butler Photos by 1st. Lt. Cari B
TARIN KOT, Afghanistan - A major Afghan National Security Forces operation to clear insurgents from the southern Afghanistan province of Uruzgan during Nov. 4-20, 2012 once again demonstrated ANSF's ability to operate independently. Kalak Hode VI, translated as "determined strike," was the final in a series of six successive operations designed to prepare Afghan security forces to operate independently before the 2012 winter. According to Maj. Gen. Abdul Hamid, the Afghan National Army's 205th Corps Commanding General, the operation resulted in the discovery of 43,000 rounds of small arms ammunition, and more than 700 kilograms of explosives. Additionally, approximately 500 improvised explosive devices were found and rendered safe. "We are proud of our army; we have shown the ability to perform independent operations in three southern provinces successfully. We had a few casualties but our enemy had many," Hamid said. "I share my deep condolences with their families; they were the real sons of this country who sacrificed themselves for the security and for prosperity of this country." Compared to previous Kalak Hode operations, coalition forces provided limited support, said Australian Lt. Col. Craig Madden, the Operations Officer Advisor of the 205th Coalition Advisory Team. He said Afghan forces provided a higher percent of the support and logistical assets in this operation versus previous Kalak Hode operations. Madden said one of the highlights of the operation was the successful participation of the Kandahar Air Wing's aircraft and crews in the clearing mission. "One of many success stories is the Kandahar Air Wing, which was able to conduct seven to eight separate missions including aero-medical evacuations, ammunition and logistic resupply, and an Afghan air assault. (It) shows that the ANSF can plan and execute a reasonably complex operation in their own backyard," Madden said. Another significant operational achievement was the combined effort and cooperation of the police, said Afghan Police Col. Anayatullah Ahson, the operations officer for the 404th Zone Maiwand. "Currently we have to work together shoulder by shoulder," Ahson said. It doesn't matter if you're ANP, AUP, ANA, or ISAF, we should all work together to solve the insurgent issues or problems that we have in this country right now." -- Naweed yousufi Army Freelance Journalist

My wife, Anne Gee, who has died aged 79, was a 17-year-old bride when in 1948 we travelled to Uganda together. I was a new recruit in the colonial service and Anne was allowed to go with me on the condition that she could find somewhere to stay, since there was limited married accommodation available.
Fortunately, she found a place with missionaries looking after people with leprosy. She had left behind a promising singing career, having won a national competition aged 16, but nevertheless became an enthusiastic amateur soloist in Uganda of song recitals, opera and oratorio, while at the same time raising a family there. We returned home to England after 17 years and Anne joined the opera course at the Guildhall School of Music in London. Responding to Asa Briggs's enthusiasm for mature students at Sussex University, she enrolled for and obtained a music degree.
She travelled with me to Fiji and Papua New Guinea. She maintained her infectious enthusiasm for music and, in Papua New Guinea, carried out three years of fieldwork on Melanesian music, researching conch-shell bands used for playing church music, and obtained her master's degree. She also formed and conducted a choir there consisting almost entirely of indigenous people. One of their productions was a version of Acis and Galatea sung to Handel's music in pidgin English.
In Sussex, she began to teach others to sing, especially those who were unaware that they could actually sing. She was a pioneer of this approach to teaching and encouraging amateur choirs, which she called "singing for those who can't". Latterly she founded and conducted a choir in East Anglia whose concerts continue to raise funds for good causes.
Anne was active in women's rights wherever she went. In Uganda, she presided over the Uganda Council of Women after independence and helped local women to draft legislation. In Papua New Guinea, she marched to protest over local issues affecting women's rights. She cared about family, the poor, and gender and racial equality, and always carried in her handbag a copy of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
Anne is survived by me and our sons, Nathaniel and Simon, and our daughter, Sarah.

14 Black Lives Matter Thugs Make SICKINING Move Among The Dead In The Louisiana Floods
While the floods in Louisiana have ravaged cities and devastated the lives of thousands of Louisiana residents, many of whom are black, Obama and the rest of his Black Lives Matter hooligans continue to offer no assistance or aid to those in need.
Trump has made sure to show America that he cares about all lives and has come down to offer his help and support while our nation's president is preoccupied playing golf in Martha's Vineyard.
What is really sickening is the fact that instead of even offering help to these people in need the Black Lives Matter group has instead decided to commit this sickening act in the chaos while people suffer and die all around them.
Thousands have lost their homes and all of their belongings in the disastrous floods plaguing Louisiana. Many have been much more unfortunate than that and have lost their lives as well.
While Black Lives Matter continue to preach how much black lives mean o them 14 of their finest have decided to prove just how much black lives mean to these people by showing their support in a very disgusting way.
While cops and the national guard have been busy offering their help to the victims in need these 14 Black Lives Matter thugs saw an opportunity, not to help those that they say that they stand for, but rather to commit more crimes and demand that there be no consequences.
This group of low-lives decided to raid some of the stores that were vacant because the owners were forced to evacuate, running for their lives and leaving everything that they had behind.
It wasn't enough to just take everything that one store owner owned, these pieces of trash made sure to hit as many stores as they could.
WAFB reports that men in their mid 20's and 30's were caught robbing cigars and alcohol from Brother's Food Mart. Half of the gang went to the food mart for booze while the other half made sure to over $750 worth of merchandise from a nearby Dollar General.
If this wasn't bad enough the looting that these thugs committed caused officers to stop helping the flood victims in order to track down and catch these pieces of dirt.
Many have now been charged with looting, burglary, and unauthorized entry during emergency or disaster, while two others have been charged with possession of marijuana.
Now we're sure to be hearing about how these cops are just another few in a long line of 'racist' cops coming after black people unjustly.
This only proves what truly motivates the Black Lives Matter movement, it's not equality or the well-being of the black community, it's only hatred, chaos and violence.
Please share this story on Facebook and let us know what you think about this disgusting move by the Black Lives Matter thugs.

To get good fuel economy probably needs a mindshift away from SUVs and Hummers towards smaller 1300cc or smaller cars.
The "look" of cars is pretty much fashion driven, dictated by the car manufacturers to promote consumption. This year it's round headlights, next year square; boxy Hummer look one year, curved Porche look the next; big grill, then small.
Car manufacturers keep advertising more power, size etc (10% more power than last year's model, 5% more space...). How is it that they never advertise reduced consumption (well they might, but only if it does not compromise power, size etc)..
People really need to see cars as transport. Perhaps then they will start to think in terms of efficiency etc.
People really need to see cars as transport. Perhaps then they will start to think in terms of efficiency etc.
The kind of car that can get 100 mpg is going to be:
1. light = unsafe unless made of expensive materials
2. fuel efficient = excessively low acceleration and/or low top speed
3. aerodynamic = low to the ground = drives don't see you
I'd trust my life to a tiny, low slung car if it had a rollcage.
Otherwise it's a death trap.
Crumple zones anyone?
Why do you need huge acceleration and top speed? You're using your car for transport, not racing. There's no need for a car that goes more than 70mph. There's no need for a car that burns rubber.
I use a very old technology 1300cc car (probably equivalent in power to a more modern 1000 cc engine car). It has sufficient guts for my purposes, even when carrying 4 people + a load.
If you come down off your soapbox for a minute and take a breath, you might be able to use the time to consider that, while cars have gotten safer, drivers certainly haven't. It's more likely that, because cars have gotten safer and more comfortable to drive, drivers have become more complacent and less safe. Most of the yayhoos I see driving around here scare the crap out of me now, let alone if they were
Your small, lightweight 100mpg car will have high explosive charges placed in its bumpers; when it crashes into something they detonate, negating the threat. This will (1) eliminate the need for expensive, heavy crash-proofing, and (2) cause the Hummmers to think twice before bumping into a Mini Cooper.
You obviously have never been to Cambodia [mahugh.com].unless it is a motor cycle, which isn't really car, and is impractical for a family.
The Smart ForTwo goes 120 km/h (~75-80 mph), and that's only because it's speed is limited by a governor. You can get it without one, and slightly tuned, then it'll go 100 mph.
*Steam cars were a problem, but steam power for vehicles can still be found. It turns out that steam power for extremely massive vehicles is actually quite efficient. Ste
The article seems a bit vague on what practical means. Will it have to include air conditioning, power windows, automatic transmission... like Americans are used to? I can see many entries removing all these features that are pretty much standard on cars today just to save some weight. That's not even going into how I hope it's safe enough to drive and can hit 60 MPH in under, say, 15 seconds.
Now that I've mentioned my concerns, I have to say it's a great idea. Such a prize would push for innovation and
More pictures and info here [greatchange.org] and here [vw.co.uk]. Now this is a two seat car, and if you follow the links above, you'll see not the most spacious.
VW also produce a 3 litre car, the Lupo [wikipedia.org]. The fuel consummation here is 78 miles per US gallon or 94 miles per Imperial gallon and this car is in production, and will hold four people and a wee bit of luggage.
With this in mind, does this competition sound like its really pushing the envelope?
Lets face it, the reason why a lot of people are driving big SUV's and suffering with 20 MPG highway 15 MPG city is because of the marvelous 5 STAR safety rating these vehicles provide.
Most SUVs, especially truck-based SUVs, are much less safe than normal passenger cars. A low center of gravity plus properly designed crumple zones to absorb energy will always fare better than a tall rigid design like an F150. Even better, smaller cars are more maneuverable, providing "active" safety (the ability to avoid an accident entirely) rather than "passive" safety (the ability to walk away from an accident). The only thing making SUVs "safer" than average passenger cars is that everybody bought into the BS that SUVs are "safer". It's become an arms race, and if you don't have a jacked up monster then you risk decapitation if a SUV hits you from the side.
The roads are (in America) getting more crowded by the day, the law of tonnage rules and small guys get eaten alive in wrecks.
Crowding has nothing to do with it. In fact, in a crowded situation a smaller care may be even safer because it gives you the ability to squeeze into smaller areas for avoidance that you wouldn't otherwise be able to.
Is it really worth it to be driving around in a vehicle that gets 30, 40 or even a 100 MPG HWY if it gets compacted like a soda can if merely bumped?
That's exactly the point. Cars crumple to absorb energy that would otherwise transfer into your internal organs. Your best bet is to learn how to drive and avoid such situations in the first place. If you can't handle that, you really shouldn't have a license in the first place.
Can I use a gallon of uranium instead?
Can I total the distance that each piece travels, or does it all have to be in the same direction?
Can the direction be "up"?
I am stunned to learn the average American vehicle gets 21mpg, or 8.9 lt/100km.
Here people have decided that the supposed benefits of huge Galaxy-class land vessels are worth paying to refill every couple of days, because not only is there the long-standing male car culture here, but now women are using vehicles as a means of self-actualization, self-aggrandizement, self-empowerment, or whatever you want to call it.
We're perfectly willing to go for instant gratification rather than long-term sanity. R
Well, wind resistance from Old Glory flapping off the antenna, plus the added weight of the gun-rack fully laden with automatic weapons, and the fact that we only drive on unpaved vertiginous mountain roads (see any SUV commercial) does cause us to burn more fuel, yes. I assume the X-Prize will require all participants to observe these standard requirements.I am stunned to learn the average American vehicle gets 21mpg, or 8.9 lt/100km. Gosh. Do they have special oil burning jets out the back or something?
It's not mandates that make fuel efficiency a big selling point, it's the taxation of gasoline.
And once the US government figures out that taxing gasoline would be a great way to pay for the war on terror
No amount of careful planning will ever replace dumb luck.

The biggest Illumina yet.... Illumina Pro 9.7" e-reader with frontlight.
For the most demanding user that works with A4 sized documents, PDFs and has the need to interact with the content (notes, annotations, highlighting), the ICARUS Illumina Pro is the new standard. The 9.7" E-Ink touch screen has great contrast and swiftly responds to any command. With 1200 x 825 pixels it has much more detail than most e-readers (800 x 600).

Or using an RSS reader to keep up to date with the news. The limits are endless. For additional connectivity, Bluetooth connectivity is included.
The integrated front light makes reading comfortable even in low light environments.
|The 9.7" E-Ink Pearl HD screen has a resolution of 1200 x 825 pixels.Thanks to E-Ink technology, contrast is high and reading is like reading from a paper book. Even in direct sunlight you can read with perfect comfort and without eye fatigue.

|Full audio support with 3.5mm headphone jack and internal speaker.
|Connect Bluetooth accessories like keyboards for extra convenience.
Read A4 sized documents
Reading documents or large A4 sized PDF files on a contemporary 6 "e-reader can be a frustrating experience. On such devices documents that make extensive use of graphs and tables require panning and zooming This makes the documents difficult to read. The Illumina Pro, with its strong PDF support and 9.7 "screen shows A4 documents perfectly. They can be shown on one screen and are perfectly readable.

The brightness can be adjusted and the light can be switched off completely too. In dark environment we recommend using only moderate levels of brightness in order to keep the contrast pleasant to the eyes.

Either using a virtual keyboard or the stylus (E1053BK only)you can add (handwritten) notes to your ePub or PDF files.

The latest issue of the FreeBSD newsletter contains a letter from the Vice President of the FreeBSD Foundation about the GPLv3. "On June 29th, the Free Software Foundation unveiled version 3 of the GNU General Public license. Even though the majority of software included in the FreeBSD distribution is not covered by any version of the GPL, our community cannot ignore this very popular license or its most recent incarnation. Through extremely successful evangelization, and the popularity of Linux, the misconception that OpenSource and the GPL are synonymous has become pervasive."

And how far did you have to dig to bury your head in the sand to ignore the Microsoft's monopoly?
Microsoft monopoly is one reason why one would expect people to try to make the market *more* free.
Instead, I see just the opposite: people bitching against free market, calling voluntary trade "enslavement", and calling the removal of choice "freedom".
