For the New Year, why not try something new at the library. If you read only fiction, you might change up your usual picks with three non-fiction selections I have found quite enjoyable. Engaging, suspenseful, succinct, and skillfully told, they recreate culturally important events with enough timeless drama to rival a stack of fiction bestsellers.
In The King Years: Historic Moments in the Civil Rights Movement, Taylor Branch condenses his America in the King Years trilogy to highlight eighteen pivotal events from 1955 to 1968. A provocative, sometimes chilling photo introduces each short chapter.
It opens with Martin Luther King, Junior's first impromptu political speech in a Montgomery church on the first night of the bus boycott, four days after Rosa Park's arrest. Chapter Two then moves to 1960, describing the lunch counter sit-in's and the formation of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. As many Piedmont readers know, the Greensboro Woolworths sit-in on February 1, 1960--while not the first of its kind--was the first to make the news, propelling a snowballing movement. Within months, thousands of students demonstrated peacefully at lunch counters in more than seventy Southern cities. Eventually many were menaced and jailed, including King himself.
Branch here describes forty-one students, among the first to be arrested, from Raleigh's Cameron Village Woolworth store: "In handcuffs (they) swept across the threshold of the jail with eyes closed, hearts pounding, and, like the bus boycotters four years earlier, they soon re-emerged on bail to discover that their identities had not been crushed. They were unharmed and did not feel like trash. A flood of relief swelled their enthusiasm."
Violence soon escalates against other nonviolent protestors in ensuing events across the South. From fire hoses and dogs turned onto marching Selma schoolchildren to death threats, terrorism, beatings, and unpunished murders, every chapter reveals courage along with outrage, hope rekindled from despair. Readers follow Freedom Riders, Washington marchers, Birmingham demonstrators and mourners. Branch recreates highlights from Freedom Summer, the 1964 presidential conventions, interactions with JFK and Attorney General Robert Kennedy, and King's receiving of the Nobel Peace Prize.
Especially riveting are ten pages recounting "Crossroads in Selma." Anxious minutes unfold on the Edmund Pettus Alabama River Bridge two days after Bloody Sunday.
Complex political and social forces of the mid-1960's, summarized in Branch's last eight chapters, may send readers to his original trilogy, the first volume of which--Parting the Waters: America in the King Years, 1954-1963-- won the 1988 Pulitzer Prize for History. Included are King's dealings with Lyndon B. Johnson, J. Edgar Hoover's FBI targeting of King and the Movement, the genesis of Black Power, and King's growing desire to broaden his mission against racial injustice to help solve, as well, problems of poverty and war.
"Requiem in Memphis" concludes The King Years with seven pages of high drama leading to the last tragic moment we all know.
A second work of nonfiction that reads like fiction is Bomb: The Race to Build--and Steal--the World's Most Dangerous Weapon. This 2012 National Book Award finalist by Steve Sheinkin has been widely read by adults as well as younger readers. In 272 photo-strewn pages, the story of our first atomic bomb unfolds as a three-way race among the US, Germany and Soviet Russia.
Bomb reads like a spy novel, creating suspense among the scientists rushing to create a gadget they could scarcely imagine. Actual spies across three continents come to life here as well, complete with code names and rendezvous from New York City to Sante Fe. Unknown to me until reading this book, Norwegian saboteurs risked their lives to destroy Germany's only source of heavy water.
Robert Oppenheimer and other major players were left with mixed emotions when the Trinity test succeeded in the New Mexico dessert. "It was extremely solemn, " Oppenheimer later recalled. "We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed, a few people cried. Most people were silent." Skeinkin then adds that Oppenheimer thought of a line from the ancient Hindu scripture, the Ghagavad-Gita, "a dramatic moment in which the god Vishnu declares: 'Now I am become death, the destroyer of worlds.'"
Bomb concludes with a copy of Einstein's letter to President Roosevelt dated August 2nd, 1939. Steinkin's closing remarks personalize the book for all readers: "In the end, this is a difficult story to sum up. The making of the atomic bomb is one of history's most amazing examples of teamwork and genius and poise under pressure. But it's also the story of how humans created a weapon capable of wiping our species off the planet. It's a story with no end in sight. And, like it or not, we are all in it."
A third book is longer but no less compelling.
In A Short History of the Civil War, Canadian historian James L. Stokesbury condensed the whole of the American Civil War into 329 readable pages. To mark the war's 150th anniversary, a reissued edition came out in 2011.
Reading Stokesbury feels like listening to an expert storyteller, even when he includes discussions of strategies, tactics, and the economies of the North and South as the war continued for years. While remaining largely neutral in his treatment of the warring nations, he freely shares feelings about various leaders, bringing everyone to life by including insightful quotes and less-known anecdotes. Despite adding human interest and personality, he never minimizes the tragedy and human cost.
Beyond appreciating the content and his overall presentation of it, the book is full of good writing. The author is a master crafter of paragraphs. And for readers who appreciate good endings to well-told stories, his way of wrapping up the action and summing up the war's significance offers bittersweet conclusions, poetic and fitting for such a grand conflict.
An added bonus, though dated, is his ten-page discussion of thematically grouped "Suggestions for Further Reading," offering comments on dozens of works on the war. Missing from the list is Michael Shaara's Pulitzer Prize winning 1987 novel, The Killer Angels: The Classic Novel of the Civil War, recommended as historical fiction about the Battle of Gettysburg.

A 29-year-old homeless man who was found dead Monday behind a strip mall on South Central Avenue in Medford succumbed to hypothermia, police said.
A 29-year-old homeless man who was found dead Monday behind a strip mall on South Central Avenue in Medford succumbed to hypothermia, police said.
An autopsy determined there was no foul play involved in the death of Elijah Joseph Pickard-Aguilar, who was discovered near railroad tracks behind the strip mall in the 800 block of South Central Avenue, Medford police Lt. Mike Budreau said.
State medical examiner Dr. James Olson, who performed the autopsy, ruled Pickard-Aguilar's death as accidental.
Pickard-Aguilar was known to frequent the Ashland area, where his last contact with police was in 2008.
An employee from nearby La Clinica Women's Health Center discovered Pickard-Aguilar's body as she was walking to work and reported it to authorities at about 10 a.m.
Budreau said it did not appear that Pickard-Aguilar was under the influence of alcohol or drugs at the time of his death.
"We won't know for sure until the toxicology report comes back, but we didn't see evidence at the scene that he'd been drinking or using drugs," Budreau said.
Pickard-Aguilar was not dressed for the cold temperatures that have descended on the Rogue Valley in the past week, Budreau said.
"It was 28 degrees when we discovered him that morning," Budreau said. "And it was a bit colder that night."
Investigators initially treated the death as suspicious, which is protocol in all unattended deaths, Budreau said.
"We always treat situations like this as a potential crime until we learn differently," Budreau said. "We go over the scene looking for evidence, and we don't want to miss something important."
Pickard-Aguilar was found partially clothed despite the below-freezing temperatures, which is something police sometimes see in hypothermia cases, Budreau said.
"A lot of times when you experience hypothermia, you get the sensation that you are overheating," Budreau said. "These victims will often shed clothing before they die."
Pickard-Aguilar had only a few possessions with him when he died. Budreau did not know whether he had another camp somewhere else.
"It's tragic that he died only a few feet from a busy street like South Central," Budreau said. "If he had been in view of the street, someone might have seen him in a bad state that night; they could have reported him and gotten him medical attention."
Pickard-Aguilar's family members have been notified of his death. They live in Northern California, Budreau said.

What if my measurements are between sizes? When in doubt, go with the larger size. It's always better to have extra fabric so you can tuck extra deep.
Rich, smooth and sleek.
Indulge in luxuriously sleek Stretch Suede. The rich, sumptuously smooth fabric has maximum spandex content for easy stretch and ultimate comfort. The flexible, custom-like fit hugs furniture's curves, conforming to either rounded or angular arms.
87% Polyester / 13% Spandex. Imported. Machine wash separately in cold water, gentle cycle. Do not use bleach, tumble dry low, do not iron.
Durable and beautiful
I bought this cover to fit over a horrible southwest themed couch that my husband owned from his bachelor days. I washed it on gentle and dried on low for about 20 minutes. It was easy to slip on and keeps its shape despite 3 kids, and 2 pets. The kids have drawn on it with ink and it easily wiped up with alcohol. This cover has even endured blood smears from skinned knees and still looks as good as when I bought it! There is no constant re-tucking that I have endured with other couch covers. This has completely transformed the room and I am thrilled with this product!
Very Pleased!
I purchased a stretch suede sofa slipcover about seven years ago. I was surprised at how easy it was to place and it fit quite nicely. I washed in several times and each time it came out and went back on beautifully. My only complaint is that the fabric faded where the sun hit it. I just received a new slipcover from Surefit because I've changed up the wall colors in that room. I'm sure I'll be just as pleased with this purchase as I was with the last. Thanks Surefit! Victoria C
I bought this slipcover in Camel a few years ago to cover an outdated couch and it is still in great shape. It is not the main couch we use however it does get used. You do not need to fix the seat after you get up from sitting like you do with other slipcovers. It stays put. I have washed it several times and it still looks new. It is worth the money. Love it!!
Perfect fit
Wow! I feel like I have new furniture. I purchased the sofa and love seat covers in the burgundy stretch suede. Unbelieveable fit. I've used Sure Fit in the past, but not in the stretch fabrics. These truly do provide a "custom" fit, resulting in the look of new furniture. My sofa & love seat are on the smaller side and I was afraid there would be excess fabric, perhaps requiring lots of tucking and a bit of a "sloppy" look, but the fabric conforms beautifully to the pieces - just the way it's shown in the pictures. I'm really pleased with the look. One thing to be aware of - do order swatches - the burgundy color on my monitor displays as almost a pink. The actual fabric is a true, rich, dark burgundy. NOT a rust or a cranberry - almost a red-violet tinge in some lighting. So be sure it's what you want. Very happy with these, I'll never purchase anything but stretch fabrics from now on.
t cushion sofa cover
both pieces fit beautifully, good quality, made an old sofa with good bones, look like new.
This cover doesn't even look like a cover. My best friend stopped over and asked if we got a new couch! I am using it because our dog tore up one of the cushions. We have the bad cushion underneath and it still looks great! Very, very happy. Looking to buy for my other couch just because it's a little dates.
Great choice
I've used several Stretch Suede covers over the years. They look good, feel good, fit well, launder well, and are very durable. These covers stand up equally well to cats and to 85-lb. dogs.
I bought this slipcover with a bit of trepidation about how it would fit. I'd recently moved into a new place and had been given a sleep sofa that was about fifteen years old and had seen better days (it was also white and in desperate need of covering up). Buying this slipcover was probably one of the best decorating decisions I've ever made. It fits perfectly, even though the shape of my sofa is odd and a bit bigger than the average size. Shortly after I moved into the new place and set everything up, I invited friends over - some of which had helped me move and carried the sofa up to my living room. They thought I'd purchased a new sofa! The cover is comfortable, sleek and elegant-looking, and so easy to care for. It really transforms the furniture. Would definitely recommend!

42 X White & 3 X Blue 60mW LED
2.52 watts
This model has rubber feet and is designed to sit on a glass tank top. It lights my 10 gallon (20" long) tank perfectly. I don't recommend it for any tank larger than that. There is no lense over the LED's; they are recessed but could be touched with a finger. On one hand, there is no lense to trap moisture or get scratched. On the other hand, the LED's look easy to damage.

My winter coat finally reached the point where it was time to be replaced, and though I selected the new coat specifically for having a breast pocket to fit the J-frame, in practice it turned out to be a little snug for fumble-free access.
|Excuse the lousy cell phone picture. It's a placeholder 'til I can get some daylight.
Given that the Bodyguard is a true DAO, I see no real need to use the safety on mine. It's completely redundant. It's stiff and awkward and as useful as a kickstand on a tank; the trigger is difficult enough to pull on purpose, let alone by accident. Like the double-action-only J-frame before it, I carry the double-action-only Bodyguard in an el-cheapo Uncle Mike's pocket holster, which keeps the trigger covered and the gun oriented in the pocket.
The trigger on my Bodyguard was buck wretched out of the box, like pulling the proverbial piano across a gravel road with your index finger, but after a hundred rounds or so it smoothed out to be a usable, if still heavy, trigger*. If you can shoot a double-action trigger well, you'll be able to manage it; if, on the other hand, you're one of those people, the ones who thumb cock their double-action revolvers for every shot and refer to DA/SA autopistols as "crunchentickers", then a long, heavy trigger pull on a light, tiny pistol is going to be a recipe for yanking the sights off-target.
The laser activation buttons on the integral laser are ambidextrous, but might as well be located in Albania for all the chance you'll have of activating them in a hurry as you yank the gun out of pocket or purse. I'm assuming that Crimson Trace holds some sort of patent on a grip-activation button for lasers.
Unlike the P3AT, I can shoot the Bodyguard one-handed without it short-cycling. It has thus far been 100% reliable with FMJ, Hornady Critical Defense, and Winchester PDX1.
.380 Auto is a completely unsatisfactory round from a self-defense standpoint, but it beats a handful of nothing and it's replacing a .32 H&R Mag in my pocket, which wasn't exactly the Hammer of Thor, either.
For the niche for which I need it, to fit in the outside breast pocket of my winter coat where I can access it with the coat zipped up or while seated in my car, it's dandy. In warmer weather it will do for a pocket-carried BUG. Unlike the J-frame, it will fit in the pocket of my mom jeans.
*I have not yet put weights on it, and I would not be surprised to find out that its actual weight is less than I would guess, but the popsicle-stick grip dimensions don't give grownup-sized hands the best leverage on the trigger.The trigger itself is reasonably wide and smooth-faced, and if you do not have Truckasaurus mitts, you might actually find it less objectionable.

Mixing riffs inspired by thrash metal with the most furious elements of the punk from the last 30 years, "Homem Inimigo do Homem" is simultaneously a return to their mid 80's sound and an antidote to the extinct trends RDP survived over the years. The verbal machinegun that is so peculiar to Ratos de Porao is a form of "Punk Journalism," spotlighting topics such as corruption and sex scandals in the Catholic Church, the still-existing problem of slavery in the Brazilian countryside, and the latest wave of commercial pop punk/emo frauds.
Engineer Bernardo Pacheco and producer Daniel Ganjaman, who works with some of Brazil's biggest names in hip hop and rock, captures RDP's intentions, and gives "Homem Inimigo do Homem" a straight-ahead, organic sound that translates the 80's idiom into the modern age. In a country where nothing is ever certain, one can be sure that 25 years from now, Ratos de Porao will still be standing strong, dirtier and more aggressive than ever. For a band that has survived drugs, violence, trends and even morbid obesity, another quarter of a century will be a piece of cake.
While no Alternative Tentacles version of this will be pressed on vinyl, we now have the limited Spanish gatefold vinyl!
"Well, I tried to find the English lyrics online, but no luck. It doesn't really matter. You see words like pedofilia, involuntario, apocalipse, and forca in the titles, the subject matter isn't hard to figure out. Neither is the music. RDP went back to the hardcore roots in recent years, while hanging onto the metal/crossover thing as well. Some of the guitar riffs conjure up Die Kreuzen and Voivod (and Away from Voivod once told me they got their guitar sound from Die Kreuzen). Gordo still growls as if he's permanently constipated, accompanied by the band's murderous assault. And they look so content in a field of flowers on the back cover. I imagine the machetes are hidden away for later use. Maybe on the audience!"- Suburban Voice
"These guys were an unexpected surprise for sure. Think of Brujeria mixed with some punk flavor and sung in Portugese. That's what these dudes are all about. There's not lack of speed and aggression on this disc and I'm glad I've discovered these guys. Their first song translates to Pedofile (sic) Santa. Awesome. I think that's all you need to know about these dudes to motivate you to go search them out. Their album art is awesome too. Carnage!"- The Rise and The Fall
"This is pretty ripper... Metal seems to be more about sounding fast and creating mood througgh technical proficiency and musicianship while hardcore punk attempts the same but through emphasizing feeling. I'm more akin to the latter than the former, but this has that 80s crossover feel like later DRI, COC, and maybe Hirax? This is the only metal worth a damn. It does not let up or slow down- none of those spooky slow parts or atmospheric intros. This is total immersion!"- The Fury
"Little shreds with such effective Crossover power as a RATOS disc. This is the Sao Paolo band's first disc in three years and marks its 25th year as a unit. You get 12 punishing, unrelenting tracks that assault the senses from opener 'Pedofilia Santa' and offer no respite until the final 'Lucidez' ends. Disc highlights are 'Testemunhas Do Apocalipse' and 'Expresso Da Escravidâo' with its machine gun delivery and lacerating, fluid power. It's great to see the band still singing in its native Brazilian dialect (with translation on the band's website) and that, in its 25th year, still sounding this urgent, this dominant and still so pissed off. Great Winston Smith-esque artwork also. Hey guys - don't leave it for another three years huh?"- Scanner

Nosebleeds can be a scary occurrence, but are usually not dangerous. The medical term for nosebleed is epistaxis. They are fairly common in children, especially in dry climates or during the winter months when dry heat inside homes and buildings can cause drying, cracking, or crusting inside the nose. Many times, children outgrow the tendency for nosebleeds during their teenage years.
The front part of the nose contains many fragile blood vessels that can be damaged easily. Most nosebleeds in children occur in the front part of the nose close to the nostrils.
Nosebleeds are caused by many factors, but some of the most common causes include the following:
Many times no apparent cause for a nosebleed can be found.
Specific treatment for nosebleeds, that require more than minor treatment at home, will be determined by your child's physician. In general, call your child's physician for nosebleeds if:
If your child has frequent nosebleeds, some general guidelines to help prevent nosebleeds from occurring include the following:

Ruger firearms are for sale every day at GunBroker.com. You can buy firearms made by Ruger through one of the many sellers listing their products here at GunBroker.com, the world's largest gun auction site.
Founded in 1949 by William B. Ruger and Alexander McCormick Sturm in 1949, Ruger's (full name: Sturm, Ruger & Company) roots reside in a tiny rented machine shop in Southport, Connecticut. When Ruger began to design his first pistol, he adapted design elements from the German 9mm Luger and the American Colt Woodsman. The Ruger 22 caliber pistol became the flagship firearm for the company. Ruger now manufactures over 400 variations of 30 product lines for hunters, competition shooters, law enforcement, self-defense enthusiasts, and collectors.
Ruger has become one of the most dominant forces in the 22 LR rifle market due to its massive sales of the Ruger 10/22 semi-automatic rifle. The 10/22 rifle is inexpensive yet is produced at premium standards for quality. The popularity of this rifle has spawned a vast market of 10/22 accessories and parts. Ruger also manufactures the Ruger No. 1, a single-shot falling block rifle, and the Ruger SR-556, a semi-automatic carbine which marked Ruger's entrance into the AR15 market.
Just as with their presence in the rifle market, the Ruger MK II and the Ruger MK III have a large share of the 22 rimfire semi-automatic pistol market. Just like with the 10/22 rifle, the Ruger pistols are supported by a large inventory of accessories and parts. Other popular Ruger pistols include the Blackhawk and Super Blackhawk single-action revolvers, and both the Redhawk and Super Redhawk double-action revolvers.
Over the years, Ruger has been awarded a variety of awards from the Shooting Industry Academy of Excellence including back-to-back Manufacturer of the Year (1992 & 1993). Ruger has also produced several winners of the "Handgun of the Year" award including the Ruger Super Redhawk (2001), and the Ruger LCR (2009). Continuing with their line of excellent firearm, the Ruger 22 Magnum 10-22 rifle (1999) and the Ruger 17 HMR rifle (2002) have both received the "Rifle of the Year" award.
GunBroker.com sellers update their auction listings frequently, so if you're looking to buy Ruger firearms or Ruger accessories check back often.

What does SQ mean?
- SQ was a program used in the early 1980s on both DOS and CP/M computer systems to compress files so they use less space. Files compressed by SQ are identified by changing the middle initial of the extension to "Q", so that text files ended with the extension .TQT, executable files ended with the extension .CQM or .EQE, documents with .DQC, etc. Groups of files were often combined into an archive using the LU program, which created .LBR files containing all the files needed for a particular group, such as all the files needed to install an application. Typically such files were either individually compressed or the LBR archive was itself compressed with SQ. With the development of the ARC program and its ARC archive file format, SQ essentially became obsolete on most systems, except CP/M, which lacked an ARC port for several years. On CP/M systems, the CRUNCH compression program was written to implement the LZW algorithm and plug the gap.

QCAD is an application for computer aided drafting (CAD) in two dimensions (2D). With QCAD, you can create technical drawings such as plans for buildings, interiors, mechanical parts, or schematics and diagrams. QCAD can be easily extended through plugins and its very powerful and complete ECMAScript (JavaScript) interface.
QCAD Pro bundles QCAD with additional proprietary tools and plugins, including read and write support for the DWG file format, SVG export, printing a drawing on multiple pages (poster), and support for splines from fit points.

DXF2papercraft converts a polygonal 3D model stored as a DXF file into a plain drawing in the form of a 2D DXF file. This requires the program to "unfold" the 3D model. The result is a flattened pattern of connected polygons. All edges of a polygon which are unconnected get a so-called glue tab in addition. This pattern is called a papercraft model, and it can be used to build a shape that resembles the original 3D model from paper or cardboard. After all pairs of tabs have been glued together, the paper model corresponds to the 3D object. The final model can be reinforced by fiber glass and resin to obtain a rigid, resilient structure.
DXF Export Java is a Java library for exporting CAD entities, along with their properties, to stream or AutoCAD DXF files at high speed and with ease. Creating a new DXF file takes only one call of the exporter class, provided that user data has been prepared and loaded to the required fields beforehand. The library handles all major entities, including Arc, Bezier, Circle, Ellipse, Hatch Pattern, Line, Multi-line Text, Pixel, Polyline, Rectangle, and Text. It also supports layers, colors, line styles, and other important properties. Source code and working demos are included.
F-Engrave generates g-code tool paths for CNC machines using CXF fonts, true type fonts (TTF), or a 2D DXF file. It can generate tool paths for engraving or v-carving text or a DXF design. The output of F-Engrave can be imported into EMC2, MACH3, or other machine controllers. F-Engrave output can be reopened by F-Engrave for later editing. F-Engrave designs can also be exported as SVG files.
Gcmc is a front-end language for generating G-code, SVG, and DXF for CNC mills, lathes, laser cutters, and other numerically controlled machines employing G-code, SVG, or DXF. The language is a context-free grammar created to overcome the archaic format of G-code programming, but can be used more generally for many targets. Gcmc aims to be more readable and understandable than G-code and enable programmatic designing. Gcmc makes extensive use of vector mathematics to support the 3D nature of CNC machining. It handles units as millimeters, mils (inch), degrees, and radians and performs automatic conversions where necessary.

About Me Long-time Pet Owner
Comments about Organic Pet Superfood DIGESTION:
I'm happy with it because it's enzymes and i think it's working within her system. Don't know if this has anything to do with it but her bad breadth is no longer noticeable.Con: might be the medicinal odor instead of another product which had a fish smell. But she still eats her food with the enzymes and i'm glad about it.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

She eats it
By idabohan
from Eagle, Idaho
I have given her over half the container, but don't see her feeling better yet. She doesn't eat like she used to, and that is what I was hoping to see improve with this suppliment. I don't know how much more it will take to see an improvement, or if it will happen at all.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Wonderful supplement
By carol
from Baltimore
This is a great product. I have used other enzyme products before, and they are all good. But this one seems to work faster and give more benefit overall. I have dogs and cats, and give them each a small amount of this. It helps my 14 yr old border collie/black lab girl keep her nervous stomach settled and gives her the extra boost she needs. Our shepherd and the cats do very well with it too. I believe all pets need a good enzyme product!
excellent product
By Tipper's mom
from Charleston, IL
Our 9 yr old lab mix rescue loves her crunchy veggies. But adding anything besides plain dry dog food to her diet always produced terrible gas. This product is amazing. It has completely eradicated the problem. Everything we have ordered from Only Natural Pet has worked beautifully for our dogs. Amazing!!

Works Great
By kat4lady

Have 16 yr old cat Rusty. He lost weight and after visiting the vet, he was on antibotics. He was previously throwing up his food, which was why he lost his weight. After reading about Digestion from Organic Pet superfood, I tried it with Rusty. He is doing so much better after giving him this in his can cat food once a day. His breath is smelling better these days. Hoping he can gain his weight back soon. He already has gained 1lb. Thank you Organic Pet Superfoods!!

One of our young dogs constantly had bad breath even though he regularly volunteered for teeth brushing. I figured it may be indigestion and tried this. This natural plant material is doing the trick! Once a day on the food and it's all good. Sweet smelling breath again and our dog seems to rest better, too.

This is a SUPER food!
By Liz, the four-legged mommy
from Brooklyn, NY
After spending hundreds of dollars at my vet, Daisy, my almost 11 year-old daughter still had loose bowel movments which lasted for over a month and a half before I got this product. And literally, within 4 days of adding this to her food, her stool became normal again! No more waking up at all hours of the night to take her out and only heaven knows how uncomfortable she was! Also, her breath is so much fresher!
Great for hairballs/vomiting/raw diets
By Menagerie
from Monterey, CA
My cats have always had hairballs. I've had them on a raw/grain-free mix diet for a few years now, but every once in a while they go on a vomiting binge and I find hairballs with lots of yellow fluids all over the house. My vet told me to try supplementing them with digestive enzymes. The kind she gave me wasn't having much of an effect, but the Superfood has nearly eliminated the problem. I have been using it for over a month now and haven't seen one hairball! It's rather expensive, but completely worth it in my opinion, especially considering it's organic.

Yankees prospect Sanchez progressing nicely
Backstop not concerned about team having signed McCann to long-term deal
The New York Yankees have had their fair share of "catchers of the future," including those who were at one time billed to be the eventual successor to Jorge Posada.
Jesus Montero was traded to Seattle, and his future as a backstop is uncertain. Austin Romine dealt with a series of injuries and now looks destined to be a backup, at least for as long as he stays in New York.
Behind those two, at least in terms of development, has been Gary Sanchez, who's been on radar screens ever since the Yanks signed him for $3 million as a 16-year-old out of the Dominican Republic in July 2009. His progress has been uneven at times, though he did reach Double-A last season at age 20.
Sanchez has always been touted as having tremendous offensive upside, with power to spare -- something he's been able to tap into more as his approach has improved. He's always had a strong arm, but the rest of his defense -- while also better -- still needs to catch up. His tools, though, have never been in question. There have been some concerns about his work ethic, but even on that front, he's been moving in the right direction.
"[Sanchez] made some progress last year. He's got more progress to make," Yankees senior vice president of baseball operations Mark Newman said. "He was a 16-year-old kid when we signed him. It's more the rules than the exception that they're going to have to adjust to the work-ethic standards we have in professional baseball. He's a good kid. He wants to be a good player."
The 2013 season gave Sanchez, ranked No. 4 on MLB.com's top 10 catching prospects list and No. 1 among Yankees prospects, the kind of motivation a young player can often use to keep the fire burning. His season ended with a championship, the Double-A Eastern League title, with the Trenton Thunder.
"It's something that, in my four years with the Yankees, I'd never won a championship and I wanted to know how it felt to win a championship," Sanchez said at the recently completed Rookie Career Development Program. "It really feels good to be in the playoffs, win the final series and all that. I felt really good. I liked it. I want that to keep happening, a lot."
Whether it happens in New York remains to be seen. The Yanks signed seven-time All-Star Brian McCann to a five-year contract this offseason, seemingly creating a large roadblock for a young catcher like Sanchez. The positive is that now there's no rush to get Sanchez ready for the big leagues. He can continue to iron out his game, mature physically and mentally, without that kind of pressure.
"[Sanchez] has to go at the right pace," Newman said. "He needs to focus on taking care of his game. This game changes so fast. Brian's a heck of a player and he has a contract with some length. Gary just has to go out and get better."
Perhaps some time ago, Sanchez wouldn't have understood that message. But it sounds like he hears it loud and clear now.
"Their signing Brian McCann shouldn't have any bearing on me or cause me to become discouraged," Sanchez said. "What I've got to do is keep doing my job, do what they tell me and work hard. And they'll decide what to do with me. I can't go backward now, because the show goes on. You never know."

I`m guessing this is another Graphic display problem here.
Friday, 18 January 2013, 21:46 GMT+2
Reason for closing: Fixed
These are all problems related to the move to the new Qt 4.8 library. It fixes a bunch of things compared to Qt 4.7 but introduces new problems (on Windows only so far).
I won't have time to look into these this week, so you might have to stick with QCAD 3.0.0 for the time being.
QWidget::update() is broken in Qt 4.8 for Windows. QWidget::repaint() results in flickering on some installations (as expectable).
Of course - there is no hurry, its not a problem, just ' playing' around with 3.0.5.
Hope the feedback helps :)
Snapshot 3.0.6 is now online and should fix these types of issues since it's using Qt 4.7.4 again.

dbf is an easy-to-use command line tool to show and convert the content of dBASE III, IV, and 5.0 files, as well as of FoxBase and Visual FoxPro. It reads xBASE-compatible databases and prints the content to the screen or converts it to comma-separated (*.csv) files which can be opened in Excel, StarOffice, and most other spread sheets. It can also be used to show some statistics about the content.
Ctalk adds classes, methods, operator overloading, inheritance, and complex object expressions to otherwise standard C programs. Programs can use only a few Ctalk objects and methods in an otherwise standard C program, but the language can be used to write entire programs also. Ctalk works on most if not all of the systems that support GCC, the GNU C compiler. The package includes the language, class and run-time libraries, example programs, tutorial, and language reference.
Ctpp is the C99-compatible C preprocessor of the Ctalk language, which provides object oriented extensions for C. The preprocessor is compatible with GNU cpp and provides extensions like macro expansion in warning and error messages, saving expanded macros to files, and built-in symbol definition for many command line options. You can download the preprocessor separately while Ctalk is between versions for development.
Red language is a native-code compiled functional, imperative, symbolic, and homoiconic programming language that re-uses most of REBOL's syntax and semantics. Both static and JIT compilation support are planned. A strong emphasis is made on concurrency and both task and data parallelism support using an actor-like abstraction and parallel collections (Scala-like). The target range of usage spreads from low-level system programming (thanks to the built-in Red/System C-level DSL) and embedded systems, up to high-level scripting, with an optional REPL console.
msmtp is an SMTP client with a sendmail compatible interface. It can be used with Mutt and other MUAs. It forwards messages to an SMTP server which does the delivery. Features include various SMTP AUTH methods, TLS/SSL-encrypted connections (including support for client certificates), support for multiple accounts, DSN, and IPv6 support.
LibDsk is a library that attempts to create uniform functions for accessing floppy drives, raw "dd" disk images, and disk image files in various emulator formats. Its intended use is for emulator authors; it also includes some sample tools to read sectors from discs in CP/M, DOS, and Acorn formats. There is special-case code for direct access to the floppy controller under Linux, and to access the floppy driver under Windows. Java (JNI) bindings are included.
Gforth is a fast and portable implementation of the ANS Forth language. It works nicely with the Emacs editor, offers some nice features such as input completion and history and a powerful locals facility, and it even has (the beginnings of) a manual. Gforth employs traditional implementation techniques: its inner innerpreter is indirect or direct threaded. Gforth runs under Unix, Win95, OS/2, and DOS and should not be hard to port to other systems supported by GCC.
4tH is a Forth compiler with a little difference. Instead of the standard Forth engine it features a conventional compiler. 4tH is a very small compiler that can create bytecode, C-embeddable bytecode, standalone executables, but also works fine as a scripting language. It supports about 95% of the ANS Forth CORE wordset and features conditional compilation, pipes, files, assertions, forward declarations, enumerations, structures, suspended execution, recursion, include files, etc. It comes with an RPN calculator, line editor, preprocessor, compiler, decompiler, C-source generator, a virtual machine, and a multitasking environment.
DRLX is a DR-DOS application and Linux kernel that loads a fully functional Linux kernel from DR-DOS. It preserves DR- DOS in memory and on disk so that when Linux has completed execution, control is returned to DR-DOS. DRLX allows the ability to load and run Linux applications from native FAT32 (or FAT16) filesystems.

The open air Wooden Architecture Museum is located in a picturesque forest on the bank of the Angara river (47 km from Irkutsk). It represents settlements of Evenks, Russians, Buryats and provides a picture of life in Siberia in the XVII-XIXth centuries. Continue on to the lakeside village of Listvyanka.
The transfer from Listvyanka to Ust Orda (140 km) by car takes about 2.5 hours. In Ust Orda, a village where Shamanism is still practiced, you will experience traditional Buryatian hospitality and cuisine, enjoying their dancing and music. You are invited to take part in the original ceremony of "meeting-and-greeting" guests at a Buryat dwelling, view their folk arts and make offerings to the local spirits, so you will feel like a medieval nomad.
Listyanka is 70 kilometers away from Irkutsk. The settlement is spread for 5 kilometers along the Baikal shore. A trip to Listvyanka is the easiest and the fastest way to see the Baikal that's why the number of tourists in summer often exceeds the number of villagers. A small trading square is a kind of the village's center where one may seat in a cafe or buy the famous fish of the Baikal - omul.
In the past the mansion belonged to one of the leaders of Decembrist revolutionaries - Russian aristocracy who were banned to Siberia after their of ill-fated attempt in December of 1825 to overthrow the Russian Tsar. The concert program will include the most famous Russian songs and European melodies. Prime performers will present songs and music, which would be followed by tour of champagne after.
Baikal Ecology Museum - The Baikal Ecology Museum exhibits include various fish and animal species, microorganisms, sponges and crustacean samples, geographical and geological data, ship models, diverse pictorial and video material as well as a number of showcases and models of the lake and marine vessels.
There is a numerous number of ethnographical and architectural sightseeing in the museum. The oldest building on a site is Spass Tower of Ilimsk Fortress (1667) and active Kazan Chapel (1679).
Buriats - Buriats, a Mongolian race, who dwell in the¡¯ vicinity of the Baikal Lake, for the most part in the government of Irkutsk and the Trans-Baikal Territory. They are divided into various tribes or clans, which generally take their names from the locality they frequent. The Buriats are a broad-shouldered race inclined to stoutness, with small slanting eyes, thick lips, high cheekbones, broad and flat noses and scanty beards. In summer they dress in silk and cotton gowns, in winter in furs and sheepskins. Their principal occupation is the rearing of cattle and horses.

Protecting prospects makes for difficult decisions
It's unclear whether 40-man roster decisions would have shaped Shakespeare's writing, but all 30 organizations just finished going through the process of deciding which Minor Leaguers to put on their 40-man roster and which to leave unprotected -- thus risking losing them via December's Rule 5 Draft.
Players first signed at age 18 must be added to 40-man rosters within five years or they become eligible to be drafted by other organizations through the Rule 5 process. Players signed at 19 years or older have to be protected within four years. Clubs pay $50,000 to select a player in the Rule 5 Draft. If that player doesn't stay on the 25-man roster for the full season, he must be offered back to his former team for $25,000.
In recent years, teams have done a much better job of evaluating and identifying talent, with few Rule 5 picks becoming impact players like Josh Hamilton or even Joakim Soria. Some do stick with their new teams, but most are returned, and those who do stay tend to fill secondary roles, at best.
A big reason for that is the extra year teams have to evaluate. It used to be that the 19 and over set only got three years, with the younger group getting four. That has led to less diamonds in the rough slipping through the cracks.
"The extra time has not only afforded teams more evaluation time, but it also has allowed the natural attrition process to be part of the decision," Indians vice president of scouting operations John Mirabelli said. "Consequently, teams are making much better, more precise roster decisions. Scouting the opposition is important, but knowing your inventory is critical and teams are capitalizing on the extra year."
That doesn't mean that all teams were faced with easy decisions at Tuesday night's deadline. Chris McGuiness of the Rangers, for instance, is fresh off winning the Arizona Fall League MVP Award after leading the elite prospect circuit in RBIs. But Texas took the chance of not protecting him in the hopes that Double-A first basemen aren't always the first order of priority in the Rule 5 Draft.
By and large, teams protected those on their Top 20 prospects list who were in line for making the 40-man roster. There were some exceptions, as well as some intriguing non-Top 20 guys who could be had in December. And it does stand to reason that the deeper a team's farm system, the more difficult the decisions may have been. Case in point, the Rangers not adding McGuiness.
Josh Zeid, Jason Stoffel and Marc Krauss are not currently on the Astros' Top 20, but that by itself signifies how far that system has come. Zeid and Stoffel are hard-throwing relievers and Stoffel had 27 saves in Double-A in 2012. All three were obtained in trades, and it's not uncommon for a team to protect those kinds of players to show they got value in deals, but Houston's depth has improved so much that it was decided there wasn't room for those three.
The San Diego Padres also are thought of very highly in terms of their Minor League depth. They made the decision to protect Jaff Decker's bat, though he's dealt with injuries of late, over second baseman Jonathan Galvez, though the Padres hope they get to retain the infielder, who has hit .281/.375/.435 in his career.
Mirabelli's Indians chose not to protect first baseman Jesus Aguilar, who was No. 11 on their Top 20 list, after a solid yet unspectacular 2012 season that saw him reach Double-A for the first time.
While many performers in the Arizona Fall League earned spots on 40-man rosters -- lefties Kevin Siegrist of the Cardinals and T.J. House of the Indians are two examples -- McGuiness isn't the only one who wasn't able to turn a solid performance into a roster spot. Kyle Kaminska, who came to the Pirates from the Marlins, along with Gaby Sanchez, in a Trade Deadline deal, finished third in the AFL in ERA, but the Bucs decided there wasn't room on the 40-man for the right-hander.

- Best Western Gobi Kelso ***
- Springs hotel ***
- Ramada hotel ****
- Kempinski Khan Palace ****
- Best Western Premier *****
Outside Ulaanbaatar: Please take in mind that traveling in the countryside of Mongolia is often tough, a trip is conducted in remote areas where there's no hotel and paved roads exist.
Outside of Ulaanbaatar, tourist Ger camps are the best accommodation for travelers. A Ger is Mongolian traditional dwelling made of felt layers and wooden construction, and the Mongols have lived in Gers since the time immemorial. Tourist Ger camps offer comfortable Gers with 1-4 beds with good bedding, and also have western style showers and WCs (mostly shared). A few Ger camps offer en-suite Gers at additional charge (please ask your Selena Travel advisor for this). Due to remoteness some tourist Ger camps may not excel in service, so travelers may not always expect high pressure showers, bubble baths or gourmet food etc.
The Karakorum was flourished in the IV-IX century by the Kirgis tribe and in 1220 the great Emperor Chinghis Khaan declared it as the capital city of his vast Empire. Many other Mongolian Khaans used Karakorum as the capital of Great Mongolian Empire, however, the Chinese Ming soldiers burnt the city several times in 15-17th century. Today there are many interesting sites left to visit; the legendary turtle rock sculptures, Buddhist stupas and the ruins of this once great city to name a few. This is one of the best place for Mongolian cultural tours.
"Elsen tasarhai" is a part of the Great Mongolian Sand dunes and extends about 80 km. The scenery is a perfect combination of desert, picturesque mountains, river and green grassland and makes you feel like you are in heaven.

Summary of the Novel
Chapter One is a preface-like chapter in the novel. Vonnegut describes the difficulty of writing Slaughterhouse-Five. Although he felt his war experiences needed to be written, he feels the finished product is a failure.
Billy Pilgrim travels in time. Most of his travels revolve around his experiences as a prisoner of war in World War II. Because he is a time traveller, he always knows what the outcome of each experience will be.
Billy, who was recently in a plane crash, is eager to tell the world about the wisdom of the planet Tralfamadore, whose residents kidnapped him. While his daughter berates him, he travels to his war experiences. After a major battle, Billy is hiding behind enemy lines with three other soldiers. One of them is Roland Weary, who is about to beat Billy, when they are captured by the Germans.
On his march to the railyards, Billy time travels to his optometry office in Ilium. He listens to a speech at the Lion's club in favor of blanket bombing in Vietnam, then goes home for a nap. He returns to World War II. At the railyards, the prisoners are loaded onto boxcars for transportation to the prison camps.
Next Billy time travels to the moment when the Tralfamadorian spaceship kidnapped him, then returns to the boxcar. Roland Weary is dead when the prisoners arrive at the German prison camp. After a few days there, during which time Billy time travels to the mental ward where he stayed after the war, his death, the Tralfamadorian zoo, and his wedding night, the Americans are sent to Dresden.
The Americans are housed in an abandoned slaughteryard in Dresden. Billy relives the plane crash and his rescue. Back in Dresden, he and his friend, Edgar Derby, work at a malt syrup factory.
During an air raid, Billy travels to his seventeenth wedding anniversary party, where a barbershop quartet dredges up a suppressed memory of the bombing of Dresden. He then goes to the zoo on Tralfamadore, where he tells his beautiful mate, Montana, about his memory. After the flames of Dresden have died down, the prisoners and their guards leave the gutted city in search of food and shelter, finally staying at an inn outside of the city.
Billy's wife, Valencia, dies on her way to see him in the hospital after the plane accident. Because of his silence after the crash, he is considered a vegetable. He finally speaks to Bertram Rumfoord, telling him that he was in Dresden when it was bombed and that the Tralfamadorians had taught him that the destruction of Dresden had to be. After being discharged, Billy sneaks off to New York and gets on a radio show, where he talks about the Tralfamadorians. Vonnegut says that he hopes Billy's philosophy is wrong.
Billy is put to work digging the corpses out of the rubble. Edgar Derby is shot for looting a teapot. One day, the war is finally over. Billy walks free into the springtime world.
The Life and Work of Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.
Kurt Vonnegut, Jr., was born on November 11, 1922, in Indianapolis, Indiana. His father was a prominent architect and his mother the daughter of a wealthy brewer. They were liberal, atheistic, and well-to-do third-generation Germans who were prominent in the social scene of their city.
Although Vonnegut's older brother and sister were both educated in private schools, the Depression caused such a dramatic drop in the family income that the Vonneguts could no longer afford such luxuries as continuing to pay for Vonnegut's education. The change was traumatic for Vonnegut's parents and eventually led to his mother Edith's suicide in 1944. Vonnegut adjusted well to public school, where he started writing as a reporter for the newspaper at Shortridge High School.
Vonnegut enrolled in Cornell in 1941. At his father's recommendation that he study something practical, Vonnegut majored in chemistry. He continued to write, eventually becoming editor of the student paper at Cornell University.
In 1942, Vonnegut enlisted in the army. He was captured by Germans on December 22, 1944, after the Battle of the Bulge. From the front he was eventually sent to the open city of Dresden. While he was there, the Allies firebombed the city, killing 135,000 people. (By comparison, about half that number died in the bombing of Hiroshima.) Vonnegut survived only because his prison was a meat locker 60 feet underground.
After the war, Vonnegut married Jane Marie Cox, with whom he would have three children. He briefly attended the University of Chicago, then moved to Schenectady, New York, where he worked as a publicist for General Electric. During this time Vonnegut began to sell stories to such publications as Collier's and the Saturday Evening Post. Encouraged by his successes, he left his position at G.E. to pursue writing full-time in 1950.
Vonnegut's first full-length novel was Player Piano, published in 1951. His next novel, Sirens of Titan, was not published until 1959. Although this may have been the least successful part of his career, he did manage to support his family, including three nephews adopted when his sister died, from the earnings brought in by the short stories he wrote during this period.
Vonnegut's next book was Mother Night (1961), which was followed rapidly by Cat's Cradle (1963) and God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater (1965). Vonnegut turned to teaching in 1965, eventually coming to the University of Iowa's Writer's Workshop. While there, he was offered a three-book contract, which was followed in short order by a Guggenheim fellowship. These fortuitous events led to the writing of Slaughterhouse-Five, which was published in 1969.
Slaughterhouse-Five was a success both critically and financially. Since its publication, Vonnegut has pursued writing full-time, producing eight more novels and many other works. His most recently published work is 1995's Timequake.
Estimated Reading Time
Slaughterhouse-Five is a simply written and short book. It should take about seven hours to read the entire work. After doing so, it would be good for the student to reread the book to facilitate comprehension of Vonnegut's style.
