Raw Spirit
What the Raw Food Advocates Don't Preach
By Matt Monarch
When I first read about becoming a Raw Foodist, I couldn't wait to start. And I didn't. Overnight I abandoned my bachelor's diet of burgers, Subways, chicken patties, and burritos for raw vegetables, fruits, nuts, and seeds. I couldn't wait to experience increased energy, glowing physical perfection, and a longer healthier life.
After I took the big leap, many unexpected changes started happening; things I hadn't read about like the negative physical side effects and the incredible spiritual dimension of being Raw. Within these pages are details that raw food advocates don't preach and have not written about. In honest detail, Raw Spirit prepares you for the world you could be walking into if you choose to become Raw, or if you are already.
The second half of Raw Spirit is an extensive interview with Dr. Fred Bisci, PhD, 40 year raw food pioneer, and Master Nutritionist. Included is Dr. Bisci's Intermediate Healing Diet, a protocol similar to what he gives clients who want to heal from dis-ease. Although I feel 100% Raw is the optimal diet for the human body if done correctly, it may not be for you. This intermediate diet, containing some cooked foods, can be adopted as your daily diet for health and healing; or it can be used to transition safely and easily to your new Raw Lifestyle.
Raw Spirit has much to offer:
Those who want to heal through diet;
Those who want to stay Raw, but keep falling back into cooked food;
Those who are Raw and may run into future problems;
Those who are Raw and feeling confused and rejected;
Those looking into Raw. What they can expect.

Interview with Dr. Fred Bisci
Here are the questions that Dr. Fred Bisci answers in this book, Raw Spirit.
Not many people understand what happens to their body on a cellular level when they improve their diet. Do you feel that understanding this concept would result in much better health amongst the Raw Food community?
Can you talk a little about how someone can become cleaner on a cellular level?
Why is it bad to go back and forth from a Raw Food Diet to a cooked food diet?
Why is it necessary to leave something out of our diet completely if we want to heal? Why can't we cheat just a little bit every once in a while?
What is the order of food groups that one should leave out of their diet from first to last?
I mention in this book that a raw food eater is more sensitive to polluted air than a cooked food eater. Do you feel your health is suffering because you are a Raw Foodist living in NY air pollution?
Why do you think Dr. Norman Walker lived to be such an old age?
What kinds of problems can someone run into who eats too much fruit?
How much fruit is too much?
You have mentioned that long term raw food eaters can run into problems if given pharmaceutical or intravenous drugs. Why is this?
You have been on a raw diet for over four decades. Have you ever encountered a problem with medical drugs?
Do you feel that raw food eaters should be raising their newborn babies Raw?
I don't know anyone that is a bigger animal lover then you. How do you recommend someone raise his or her pet?
How do you feel about the use of alcohol?
How do you feel about the use of marijuana?
Do you feel that colonics are important?
Do you feel that one needs to do colonics to be successful on a raw food diet?
I have talked to you about how I have had gas and waste problems ever since I became Raw. Is this normal?
Even when I am eating really well, feeling emotionally okay, and have been eliminating fine, inevitably after two weeks, gas and waste build up in my system and I need to do a colonic.
I do colonics a couple times per month. Is it bad to do it this many times?
Is it possible to do too many colonics?
How do you feel about Bernard Jensen's psyllium and bentonite cleanse?
After I did the psyllium bentonite cleanse I started to experience the energy fields that I mention in this book for the first time. Can you comment on that?
How do you feel about the aluminum content in bentonite clay, one of the major ingredients of Bernard Jensen's cleanse?
Do you think this Bernard Jensen's cleanse would drastically improve someone's health and level of cleanliness?
When I was eating cooked foods, I ate everything and anything and never had any noticeable digestive problems. Why, now that I'm Raw, must I contend with annoying digestive upsets (gas) whenever I eat bad food combinations?
Some people say that you shouldn't mix too many types of fats at one meal. How do you feel about that?
What are your thoughts on Hyperbaric Medicine?
Why do you feel that raw food eaters seem to be dying at the same age as cooked food eaters?
Why are those that have been eating a raw diet for many decades at more risk of running into serious complications compared to others?
Why are eating nuts so important for a raw food eater in the long run?
You have been on a Raw Diet for 40 years. It would be very hard for you to go back to eating foods that are not raw. If you could do it all over again, would you add any other foods into your diet?
How about adding raw goat's milk or raw cheese to your diet?
How old do you think someone could live in this day and age if they committed to an optimal Raw Diet?
Do you feel that eating once a day is a big key for longevity?
Do you feel that systematically under eating is a big key in longevity?
Do you feel that exercise is key to longevity?
Do you think that drinking vegetable juice is necessary to succeed on a Raw Diet?
Does the body of a raw food eater handle stress better?
Do you believe that Breatharianism is possible?
Do you feel that supplements are necessary for a raw food eater?
I have heard you say that many spiritual things happen to the person that becomes a 100% raw food eater. Can you talk about any of those spiritual experiences?
What has a Raw Diet done to your brain (memory)?
Do you feel that men should conserve their sperm?
Can someone eliminate all of his or her Sexual Transmitted Diseasess (STD's) on a raw food diet?
Is a raw food diet the best way to deal with degenerative diseases?
What is your diet like? How many times a day do you normally eat?

Nov. 12, 2010
SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - The UC Santa Barbara women's volleyball team survived a scare at the start of their final homestand of the 2010 season.
After losing three of their last four matches, the Gauchos found themselves on the fringe of the postseason picture. Then the Gauchos found themselves down two sets to none against UC Davis, with whom they only had one game of separation in the standings.
However, UCSB stormed back on the power of Charlene DeHoog's double-double (16 kills and 13 digs), taking the final three sets for an overall match score of 18-25, 21-25, 25-23, 29-27, 15-10. UCSB returned the favor from less than a month ago when the Gauchos held a 2-0 lead in Davis and succumbed to the Aggies in five.
The Gauchos improved their conference record to 9-5 (15-12 overall), while the Aggies dropped to an even 7-7 record (16-11 overall). The Gauchos were led by DeHoog as well as freshman libero Kelly Heenan, who recorded a team-high 14 digs.
Unfortunately, the win does little for the team's postseason prospects, as Cal State Fullerton, Long Beach State and Cal Poly all recorded victories.
In the first set, the Gauchos couldn't overcome a sluggish start and five kills from UC Davis senior outside hitter Kayla Varney, who dominated the floor in the first frame. Still, the set was relatively tight, and the Gauchos received three kills on five attempts from senior middle blocker Kasey Kipp.
A back-and-forth second set again saw an Aggie outside hitter take over, as Allison Whitson recorded seven kills in the set. After 12 ties and four lead changes, UC Davis pulled away after a kill from Whitson and a kill-block combo from junior middle blocker Betsy Sedlak put them up 22-19.
In the closest set of a match that included 50 ties and 24 lead changes, the Gauchos got back into the game on the strength of freshman outside hitter Kara Sherrard's four kills and junior middle blocker Lily Lopez's four kills on just 8 attacks. The dramatic set saw the Gauchos relinquish a 21-17 lead before eventually prevailing 25-23.
The Gauchos continued their charge in the fourth set, punctuated by DeHoog's five kills. UCSB had a scare, as they were down 26-27, but rallied off three straight points to take the set. Sherrard contributed a kill and a service ace late in the set to lead the Gauchos.
The decisive fifth set was highlighted by the conspicuous absent of Aggie Kayla Varney. UCSB took advantage of her absence, as Lopez and DeHoog recorded three kills apiece. The match ended on an emphathic block by Kipp. Unlike the first four sets, the last saw the Gauchos hold the lead the entire time.
Sherrard and Kipp each had 12 kills while senior setter Dana Vargas had 49 assists. Kipp added two solo blocks as the Gauchos accrued 9.0 team blocks. Vargas also tallied a double-double - her team-high 12th of the season - as she added 11 digs.
The Gauchos finish their home schedule on Saturday night vs. Pacific as seniors Charlene DeHoog, Kasey Kipp and Dana Vargas will be honored. Tickets are available by calling (805) 893-UCSB or by clicking here.
The Intercollegiate Athletics Ticket Office has two parking spaces adjacent to the building and is now open on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., making it easier than ever for fans to purchase tickets. The two parking spots, designated specifically for the Ticket Office, are also available during weekday hours, which are 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday.
The Gaucho Fund, launched as part of the Dare to Be Great strategic plan, is UCSB Athletics' annual giving program to provide vital funding support for scholarships, academic success and leadership development for Gaucho student-athletes. The Gaucho Fund is the anchor to the Dare to Be Great campaign.

Sri Lanka Travel Guide
Known as the 'Pearl of the Indian Ocean', Sri Lanka is a stunningly beautiful island in the Indian Ocean, with an interior of dense tropical jungles framed by sandy golden beaches. The teardrop-shaped island is made up of a mountainous landscape with more than a hundred picturesque waterfalls and innumerable hiking trails leading to breathtaking vistas like the famous World's End.
Sri Lanka is also home to diverse wildlife, including leopards, monkeys, crocodiles, and many species of birds; it is most famous for its elephant population however, and tourists flock to the elephant sanctuaries to get an up-close-and-personal experience with the majestic creatures.
The ancient culture of Sri Lanka is just as fascinating as its natural attractions, and sacred Buddhist cities like Anuradhapura and Panduwasnuwara give visitors the opportunity to visit temples and other sacred sites dating back thousands of years.
A holiday in Sri Lanka isn't for travellers looking for gleaming cities and sophisticated nightlife, but cities like Colombo and Kandy offer plenty of shopping and dining opportunities, as well as excellent museums that give unique insight into the captivating culture of Sri Lanka. While the island is often overlooked for more popular destinations like Thailand and Indonesia, a holiday in Sri Lanka is an enticing adventure for travellers willing to go off the beaten track.
Best time to visit Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka's dry season lasts from November to April on the west coast, and May to September on the east coast; so the best time to visit Sri Lanka depends on where you want to go. The country's proximity to the Equator ensures that heat and sunshine are almost ever-present! Read more on Sri Lanka's Climate and Weather.
What to see in Sri Lanka
- See the remains of an ancient royal fortress at Sigiriya.
- Visit the ancient sacred city of Anuradhapura.
- Wander through the busy markets of Pettah.

Getting to Sri Lanka
Getting to Sri Lanka from the UK is fairly simple, as several airlines offer direct cheap flights to Sri Lanka from London. There are no direct flights to Sri Lanka from the US; however, there are indirect flights via several major cities. International flights land at Colombo's Bandaranaike International Airport.

Yellen frontrunner for Fed chair after Summers withdraws
FEDERAL Reserve Vice Chair Janet Yellen became the frontrunner for the U.S. central bank's top job when President Barack Obama's preferred candidate, former adviser Larry Summers, withdrew.
If nominated and confirmed, Yellen would replace Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, whose second term expires in January, sources told Reuters.
Summers, a former Treasury secretary under President Bill Clinton and a top economic adviser to Obama during the first two years of his presidency, dropped out of consideration for the post on Sunday because of opposition among fellow Democrats that would have made it difficult to be confirmed by the U.S. Senate.
Yellen, who has a long career in the Fed system and chaired the White House Council for Economic Advisers under Clinton, would be the first woman to hold the job.
People familiar with the situation said Obama had largely whittled down his decision to two candidates, Summers and Yellen. With Summers out of the picture, Yellen moved to the top of the list. The president had mentioned former Vice Chairman Donald Kohn previously as also being under consideration. Adding further candidates to the list now was seen as unlikely.
An announcement is not expected this week. White House spokesman Jay Carney told reporters earlier on Monday that Obama would announce his decision in the fall.
"Calendar watchers will note that we are still in the summer," Carney said. The autumn officially begins on Sunday.
Analysts and former administration officials said Summers' withdrawal put Yellen in good position to be appointed.
"We believe current Federal Reserve Vice Chair Janet Yellen is now the clear frontrunner, followed by former Federal Reserve Vice Chair Donald Kohn, with only a slim chance of it being somebody else," economists at Nomura wrote in a note to clients.
"Donald Kohn is an experienced and respected central banker, but he has not worked at the Fed since 2010. Financial markets would likely not react as well to his nomination and they would to Yellen's."
Summers' close relationship with Obama had given him the upper hand in the selection process. The former president of Harvard University helped lead Obama's economic team during the financial crisis that faced the White House when Obama took over in 2009.
White House officials have stressed for weeks that the president had not made a final decision, however, and Yellen remained a contender even as Summers appeared to be on track to get the nod.
Progressive and women's groups had argued in favor of Yellen. Choosing a man after Summers' withdrawal likely would be seen as a symbolic slap against those important constituent groups, which helped Obama win re-election in 2012.
"Easily, the front runner now is Vice Chair Janet Yellen," said Jim Kochan, chief fixed income strategist at Wells Fargo Funds Management LLC in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin.
Summers' potential appointment created an unprecedented backlash and would have added to a list of battles the president faces with Congress this fall over the budget, raising the U.S. debt ceiling, and reforming immigration laws.
"(Obama) hadn't made a decision, so I don't read this as some kind of mutiny," said one former administration official, referring to opposition among Obama's fellow Democrats to Summers. "But he has plenty of challenges on his plate, so maybe this spares him one."

STRANGE BUT TRUE- Baby face: Big head tot is no monster
Q. Baby in the house? Have you ever noticed how different her head looks from your own? –B. Spock
A. Baby's head is big for her size, and her eyes are proportionally huge, reason for the wide-eyed look, says Leslie Zebrowitz in Reading Faces: Window to the Soul?
The eyes grow very little after birth, with the face continuing to grow "into the eyes," so to speak. Baby's larger pupils may compensate for the inefficiency of the immature retinas in capturing light.
Soft, chubby cheeks are another hallmark, possibly adaptive for aiding suckling– and indeed even starving, emaciated babies have "sucking pads" in their cheeks. All this sucking tends to redden and enlarge the lips. Looking up at you, Baby also displays high eyebrows (for easier upward gazing), and a classic pug nose.
"One never sees a baby with low, bushy eyebrows, or a 'hook' nose." says Zebrowitz. Such babyish looks are believed to elicit care-taking and disarmed feelings of tenderness, protection, and love.
Q. Oh, sad! Your cat Fluffy has cancer and is dying. Couldn't you have her cryonically preserved (frozen) and hope for a cure and reanimation sometime down the road? –Morris
A.A better bet might be cloning, since cryonics has never been known to save a single soul, human or otherwise. On the other hand, sheep, cattle, goats and mice have been successfully cloned, with more on the way. Cats and dogs are under scrutiny at Advanced Cell Technology (ACT), and "we anticipate success soon," reports ACT's Robert Lanza in Scientific American. A surprising number of people are interested in cloning theirdeceased pet, hoping for Fluffy II or Rover II, since a good deal of a cat or dog's demeanor is thought to be genetically determined and therefore reproducible.
Start with a pet cloning kit that a veterinarian uses to preserve skin samples that are sent back to a lab. Living cells are best, but dead will likely work too, so long as they're not too-long dead, because DNA deteriorates. Forget "Jurassic Park," but researchers in Australia are attempting to "revive" the Tasmanian tiger (a wolf-like marsupial that died out in the 1930s). One promising pup was preserved in alcohol in 1866.
Cloning is more efficient than traditional breeding, and is obviously the only way for dead or non-reproducing pets. Another use would be for "service" pets, like seeing-eye dogs which are neutered early but turn out to do great work. Going by the physiology, says Lanza, cat cloning will be here sooner than dog cloning– tomorrow, 200_?
Q. Does the heart really stop briefly during a sneeze? Is this the origin of "God bless you"? –M. Damon
A. A sneeze is physiologically fascinating but no threat to the heart. Almost anything that tickles the brain's "sneeze center" can bring one on, including eating too much, shivering, eyebrow plucking, hair pulling, sexual excitement. Even a sudden burst of bright sunlight can be a trigger, for the estimated 1/3 who are "photic sneezers."
Sneezing may, of course, signal infection or illness, and it was at the height of the plague in 6th century Italy that Pope Gregory the Great initiated the custom of saying "Godbless you!" or– if the sneezer was alone– "God help me!" says Charles Panati in Extraordinary Origins of EverydayThings. As these post-sneeze supplications spread throughout Europe along with the plague itself, another expression captured the seriousness: "Not to be sneezed at."
Q. Imagine at 11am a single bacterium enters a bottle, then divides into 2 bacteria by 11:01, 4 by 11:02, 8 by 11:03, and so on. Suppose the bottle is full by noon. That's 2 to the 60th power bacteria– a colossal number! The colony overwhelms its resources and is doomed. Now figure: if the bottle was full at noon, when was it half full? –L. Pasteur
A. Because it took an hour to fill the bottle, many people guess it took half the time– till 11:30– to half fill it, says Jeffrey Bennett in Using and Understanding Mathematics. But do you see the fallacy? In fact the bacteria doubled from 11:59 to 12:00, so the bottle was half full at 11:59. That was just a minute before the disaster!
Question 2: Now further imagine at 11:59 some math-savvy bacteria see the problem and start a space program, sending out bacterial ships in search of new bottles. They discover 3 new bottles, and away go migrants to fill these 3. "Given that the bacteria now have 4 bottles rather than just one, how much time have they gained for their civilization?"
Answer 2: Not much, because if they fill one bottle at noon, they fill 2 bottles by 12:01, all 4 by 12:02. "The discovery of 3 new bottles gives them only 2 additional minutes." (A parable on exponential growth in the world, from Albert A. Bartlett.)

Co-captain Jason Michas will try to lead Harvard back to the win column Saturday against No. 4 Rochester at the Murr Center.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – The No. 5 Harvard men's squash team looks to break a two-match skid when it hosts No. 4 Rochester Saturday at the Murr Center. The match is slated for a noon start time.
No. 5 Harvard
The Crimson is off to a 10-2 start overall and 2-1 mark in Ivy League action. After breaking out to a 10-0 start, Harvard has dropped its last two matches against No. 3 Princeton (5-4) and No. 1 Trinity (7-2).
After missing the first half of the season, Ali Farag has provided the squad with a boost in the No. 1 position since the turn of the new year. The freshman is the lone Crimson to stand at 3-0 in January. Alexander Ma has accumulated the most wins (10-2), while Nick Hopcroft (8-1), Julian Kirby (8-1) and Thomas Mullaney (8-1) follow closely behind.
Last Time Out
Harvard dug itself a hole, losing its first five matches, before falling, 7-2, at No. 1 Trinity Jan. 21 in Hartford, Conn. Ali Farag, playing in the No. 1 spot, downed three-time All-American Vikram Malhotra, 3-1, while Gary Power (No. 4) also picked up a victory for the Crimson. It was Trinity's first match since No. 2 Yale snapped the Bantam's 252-match win streak, which lasted nearly 14 years.
Record Run
Harvard opened the season 10-0, including a program record eight straight shutout victories. Harvard blanked Northeastern and Boston University by 9-0 tallies Dec. 4 to surpass the previous mark of six set by the 2004-05 Crimson.
No. 4 Rochester
The Yellow Jackets are 6-2 overall this season with its only losses coming to then-No. 2 Yale and No. 3 Princeton. Against Yale, Rochester nearly pulled off an upset before falling to the Bulldogs, 5-4. The Yellow Jackets won at positions 1, 4, 8 and 9, while also narrowly falling, 3-2, at No. 3 and No. 6.
Most recently, Rochester downed No. 6 Cornell, 7-2. The Yellow Jackets are led by Andres Duany, who defeated former CSA Individual Championships runnerup Nick Sachvie at No. 1 against Cornell (11-8, 11-2, 11-4). Senior Brian Fischer has also seen time in the No. 1 position this season.
Harvard and Rochester have split four games against each other in the history of the series. The Yellow Jackets took both meeetings last season.
Next Up
The Crimson continues Ivy League play throughout the month of February, starting with trips to No. 15 Columbia (Feb. 3) and No. 6 Cornell (Feb. 5)

NORTH DARTMOUTH, MA-Two years ago, the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth's men's golf team won the Great Northeast Athletic Conference championship and earned the GNAC's automatic bid to the NCAA Division III Championships.
The Corsairs will try to win the second GNAC title in three years when they compete at the conference championships this weekend. The two-day, 36-hole tournament begins Saturday at the Blackstone National Golf Course in Sutton, MA and is hosted by Anna Maria College. The teams will play a practice round Friday, and conclude the tournament Sunday.
"We've been working hard in practice, but so far, it hasn't translated into success in our tournament play," said UMass Dartmouth Head Coach Joel Baptista. "We struggled a little bit at Johnson & Wales after having a decent tournament at Southern Maine. Hopefully, we put together two good days of golf this weekend and make a run at the championship."
The course can be challenging. "It's difficult," said Baptista. "It's hilly, and usually has quick greens, and how it plays can be dependent on the weather. There won't be an advantage to any of the teams, and we're fortunate that we'll be able to get in a practice round before the tournament."
The competition won't be easy. "Rhode Island College is the champion until someone knocks them off," said Baptista. "They return everyone from last year's championship team, and Southern Maine has thrown out some great numbers this year as well. Those are two formidable teams standing in our way, but I think we can play with them. We have to minimize our mistakes, take advantage of our opportunities, and make sure we stay in it mentally for 18 holes."
The Corsairs' previous championship experience could be beneficial. "We have some people from our last championship team, and that bodes well for us," said Baptista. "It comes down to two rounds of golf, and we're looking to put together our best two rounds of the year. It's very important to get off to a good start. We can't be 11 shots behind after day one and try to make that up; we need to be in the hunt."

Portrait of An Artist as an Angry Youth: An introduction to the comic artist Johnny RyanPosted by admin on October 11th, 2010 at 12:01 AM

In speaking with him, weathering long pauses and Gene Simmons-like evasion, I learned that Ryan was not an angry youth at all — well, not entirely."

1 - Mozilla's development cycleHere's a brief explanation on how developers change Firefox and include texts to be translated. Developer's create code changes and add texts to be translated while Firefox is on the first six weeks' development cycle. This period is called Trunk, Nightly (since every night a new update is generated) or the latest version of the product or mozilla-central (central point of integration).
After six weeks of changes the code is taken from Trunk/Nightly to Mozilla Aurora. In this cycle translations are not to be changed. It is at this point in time that we want to translate texts since there should be no new texts to be added on this six weeks cycle. The code and translations on Aurora are generated every morning for every language and for every platform. If your team introduces new translations it will be integrated on the next morning's update. On this 6 week period, you are expected to do your translations, submit them and then sign them off (more details later).
After this Aurora period passes, the translations move into the Beta cycle where a much larger audience tests all products. At this point, missed translations can still be taken if necessary. Approximately one beta is generated every week.
After this Beta development cycle, the beta product reaches the Release cycle where millions of users get to use it. The majority of users don't know any other cycles besides the Release one and they are not aware that there is such a concept as the release version. No translations are to happen on this period either. One version is produced at the beginning of the cycle and security releases only occur due to major security issues.
Here's a summary:
- Nightly: First 6 weeks, new texts appear on Nightly
- Aurora: Second 6 weeks, all texts are ready to be translated
- Beta: Third 6 weeks period, you should have translated all your texts on the Aurora period. The translations from the Aurora period are kept on this cycle.
- Release: The last 6 weeks are exactly the same as the Beta period. No translations. They are kept exactly the same
2- Product translationsThere are several ways of translating the various Mozilla products [1]. One of them is Narro, which a web tool. My recommendation is to abandon such project and continue with Pootle's version. The guys running it are very responsive and are much more involved with the translations they support. We have had way too many issues with Narro in the last 2 years. I'm not sure if they have support for all three products or not. Visit the Armenian page they set up for us: http://mozilla.locamotion.org/hy_AM.
Nevertheless, here are the instructions on how I used to do it with Narro.
A complete set of tutorials are documented in here:
[1] https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Localization_Quick_Start_Guide/Translation_phase#Mozilla_applications
2.1 - Translate with NarroEvery 6 weeks you want to encourage your team of contributors to translate the new set of texts available. Narro should automatically import into its database the translations from Mozilla's Mercurial:
Roberto Reyes from the Tagalog team has created a simple video showing how to translate in Narro:
I also wrote a more in-depth blog post about the topic:
2.1.1 - Review other people's translationsSome users in Narro can actually review and approve other contributor's suggestions. Only reviewed translations should make it into the Narro exports.
2.2 - Export Narro into MercurialThe translations of your team won't be official until they are committed/submitted to Mozilla's Mercurial servers. Mercurial is a version control system that can store the translated files. Narro exports the translations in a zip file that has the same structure as the files in Mercurial.
Every 6 weeks (or every time you get a bunch of translations) you should export and commit your translations into Mercurial. Don't leave it until the end of the 6 weeks cycle of Narro could fail you. The next day your translations will be included on the Armenian Aurora version of Firefox for desktop and mobile plus Thunderbird:
http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-aurora.html#hy-AM (Aurora is the second cycle out of the four development cycles)
- On the first week of every new release cycle export the changes from Narro and import them into Mercurial's Aurora repository (http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/l10n/mozilla-aurora/hy-AM)
- To know the beginning of each 6 week period visit this page:https://wiki.mozilla.org/Releases#Upcoming_Releases
- Load each Narro project: Firefox Aurora, Fennec Aurora & Thunderbird Aurora
- Load the "Export" tab for each one and download the zip file for each
- Download the zip file and unzip unto your Mercurial checkout
- Make sure that you run "hg st" to know if you have any files not going in
- Watch the video and read this post for more details: https://blog.mozilla.org/l10n/2012/07/16/tips-tricks-cleaning-up-narro-exports
On this video I show how I export the translations and I clean up the code before submitting (committing) them to the Mercurial servers:
You can see a post explaining how to clean up your export:
Narro trickThe following post explains how to prevent Narro from exporting specific files. This is useful for some files that require review from the L10n driving team.
2.3 - Sign off on the L10n Dashboard
To communicate to the L10n team that your translations are ready for a development cycle you have to sign off. To sign off is to use a webtool to mark a specific submission to Mercurial as ready to be released.
After we import the changes into Mercurial in 15-20 minutes we should see the results on this dashboard:
- We only care about "fx_aurora" (Firefox), "fennec_aurora" (Firefox Mobile) and "tb_aurora" (Thunderbird) when we want to take care of current needed translations
- Once your commits have greened out you have to click on the icon that looks like a magnifying glass (This is to mark a sign off)
- Only people who are signed in and have the right privileges can submit a sign-off.
2.4 - Example of status communicationEvery 6 weeks blog/email the group of potential localizers so they can do the translations:
In 6 weeks version 20 of the various Mozilla products we translate into Armenian will be released to the beta audience.
We're not doing great for the Firefox Desktop version. If you could think of who could help us do translations please let us know.
For translations click on the following:
- Desktop - 150+ texts to be translated
- Android - 144 texts to be translated
- Thunderbird - 212 texts to be translated
For reviews (some of you can actually do reviews):
- Desktop - 150 texts to be reviewed
- Android - 11 texts to be reviewed
- Thunderbird - 2 texts to be reviewed
You can tests these translated versions in here:
Best regards,
3 - Web translationsIf you look at the L10n dashboard:
You will notice that there is a web dashboard that leads you to all web translations still needed:
If you follow the link of missing strings it will take you here:
On the side you will see instructions on how to attach translations:
|Original English source file
|Your translated file
|Attach your updated file to Bugzilla
4 - BugzillaIn the software industry, issues are tracked with issue tracking systems which are also known as bugs. Mozilla has a database called Bugzilla which tracks issues of all sorts. In the case of L10n, there are bugs that are specific to your language (a.k.a. locale).
On the dashboard you can find a summary of the bugs for your locale:
Each bug have different instructions on what to do.
5 - Mozilla.am and FacebookMozilla.am is the Armenian site that promotes Mozilla and I believe it is still maintained by Robert Sargsyan
I have also found that Facebook is a good way to engage people (better than email). I have in the past pasted an etherpad with web translations and asked for help:
6 - AccountsWhat sort of accounts could a locale's administrator need?
- A project admin account on Narro.
- You can request one in the Narro newsgroup.
- SVN access
- A bug needs to be filed.
- pascalc can also land things by asking him on bugs
- A SVN account expires after 6 months of not being used
- Mercurial access
- A bug needs to be filed.
- The people from Narro and Pootle can help you land your code
- Sign-off privileges
- A bug needs to be filed (I assume so. I don't know under which component)
- Ask on the L10n newsgroup or directly talk with Pike

Home > Patients and Visitors > Counseling for PTSD
When you have post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), dealing with the past can be hard. Instead of telling others how you feel, you may keep your feelings bottled up. But talking with a therapist can help you get better.
Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is one type of counseling. It appears to be an effective type of counseling for PTSD. In CBT, a therapist helps you deal with your feelings about the past. You'll have weekly hour-long visits for a few weeks or months or as long as it takes for you to feel better. CBT may help you have fewer PTSD symptoms over time.
Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) may also be an effective treatment.
After a traumatic event, you might blame yourself for things you couldn't have changed. For example, a soldier may feel guilty about decisions he or she had to make during war. Cognitive therapy, a type of CBT, helps you understand that the traumatic event you lived through was not your fault.
In cognitive therapy, your therapist helps you understand and change how you think about your trauma and its aftermath. Your goal is to understand how certain thoughts about your trauma cause you stress and make your symptoms worse.
You will learn to identify thoughts about the world and yourself that are making you feel afraid or upset. With the help of your therapist, you will learn to replace these thoughts with more accurate and less distressing thoughts. You also learn ways to cope with feelings such as anger, guilt, and fear.
In exposure therapy, your goal is to have less fear about your memories. It is based on the idea that people learn to fear thoughts, feelings, and situations that remind them of a past traumatic event.
By talking about your trauma repeatedly with a therapist, you'll learn to get control of your thoughts and feelings about the trauma. This is because each time you talk about the past, you become less scared and sensitive to the memories. This may be hard at first. It might seem strange to think about stressful things on purpose.
But you'll feel less overwhelmed over time. With the help of your therapist, you can change how you react to the stressful memories. Talking in a place where you feel secure makes this easier.
You also may practice different ways to relax when you're having a stressful memory. Breathing exercises are sometimes used for this.
Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) is another therapy for PTSD. Like other kinds of counseling, it can help change how you react to memories of your trauma.
While talking about your memories, you'll focus on stimuli like eye movements, hand taps, and sounds. For example, your therapist will move his or her hand near your face, and you'll follow this movement with your eyes. You'll also learn skills to help you relax and handle emotional distress.
Doctors think that focusing on hand movements or sounds while you talk about the traumatic event may help change how you react to memories of your trauma over time. But, experts are still learning how EMDR works. EDMR may help you have fewer PTSD symptoms. But research also suggests that the eye movements are not a necessary part of the treatment.
EMDR may not be available at all clinics or hospitals.

Press Release Major League Baseball
Gloops, The Boeing Company to sponsor Athletics, Mariners Jersey Patches
Gloops, a Japanese social application provider that develops and operates social applications for mobile phones, has been named the title sponsor for Japan Opening Series 2012. Major League Baseball will open its season in Tokyo, Japan for the fourth time when the Oakland Athletics take on the Seattle Mariners in the Gloops Japan Opening Series 2012, a two-game series March 28 and 29.
"We are very excited to have Gloops as a title sponsor for Japan Opening Series 2012. Gloops is a popular Japanese company that develops Major League Baseball-themed gaming applications," said Paul Archey, Senior Vice President, International Business Operations, Major League Baseball. "We look forward to working with Gloops on the highly-anticipated opening of the 2012 MLB season in Japan."
"We are delighted to have Gloops join us in bringing Major League Baseball to the great fans of Japan," said MLBPA Director of Business Affairs, Timothy Slavin. "Gloops' support for the sport is truly appreciated, as is the support of the Boeing Company and all the sponsors involved in helping us kick off the 2012 MLB season in Tokyo."
As part of their title sponsorship deal, the Gloops event logo will appear on both team's batting helmets. Gloops will also be the sponsors of the Oakland Athletics jersey patch.
The Boeing Company, the world's leading aerospace company, has partnered with the event to sponsor the jersey patch for the Seattle Mariners. In addition, Boeing will sponsor a clinic for young ballplayers in Ishinomaki, Japan. A group of kids from the clinic will participate in a special pregame ceremony prior to the first game of the series. The Boeing Company is a longtime corporate partner of the Seattle Mariners, dating back to the franchise's inception in 1977. Each Mariners season, Boeing is the presenting sponsor of the annual Salute to Armed Forces Night and Salute to Kids. Boeing's logo is also prominently displayed on outfield wall signage at Safeco Field, the Mariners home ballpark.
Uniform patches are commonly used throughout international leagues and competitions. Previous Opening Series in Japan as well as other international events such as the World Baseball Classic, have featured jersey and helmet patches.
In addition to Gloops and Boeing, a number of corporations including Bank of America, Lawson Ticket, SANKYO and Sato Pharmaceutical and Ito Ham, sponsor of the Fighting Spirit Award, have reached sponsorship deals for Gloops Japan Opening Series 2012.
Support for the two-game series is very strong as it took just nine hours for baseball fans in Tokyo, Japan to sell out Game One of the Gloops Japan Opening Series 2012. Game Two of the series also sold out the Tokyo Dome which has a seating capacity of 46,000 for baseball games.
Gloops Japan Opening Series 2012 will mark the first MLB season opener in Japan since the Boston Red Sox and Athletics played at the Tokyo Dome in 2008.
Upon conclusion of Gloops Japan Opening Series 2012, the Mariners and Athletics will travel back to the United States to complete an abbreviated exhibition schedule before resuming their Championship Season schedules.
Organizers of Gloops Japan Opening Series 2012 include MLB, MLBPA, NPB and Yomiuri.

Update to Museum's Dinosaurs App Adds Nine Species main content.
by AMNH on
There are now nine more dinosaurs to explore using the Museum's Dinosaurs app for iPhone and iPod touch, which this week added new chapters with detailed species profiles, photos and renderings, stories about specimens' discoveries, and more.
The new chapters include a look at Mamenchisaurus hochuanensis, the sauropod known for its exceptionally long neck. With an adult length of 60 feet, including a 30-foot-long neck, and height of 11 feet at the shoulder, Mamenchisaurus is the largest dinosaur discovered in China to date. A life-sized model of this colossal animal is at the center of the upcoming exhibition, The World's Largest Dinosaurs, which opens at the Museum April 16.
The app update also includes links to dinosaur videos on the Museum's YouTube channel and recent podcasts. Learn more about the app here and download it for free from iTunes.

Another new Georgie will be born this week. Not at Kensington Palace but at a bookstore near you.
Heirs and Graces, my 7th Royal Spyness mystery, will be coming out this Tuesday, August 6th. In hardcover, as an e-book, and in audio with Audible and the fabulous Katherine Kellgren reading it.
I'll be making appearances in the San Francisco Bay Area, in greater LA and in Scottsdale. Hope to see you at one of them. For details check out appearances on my website and on my Facebook page (www.facebook.com/rhysbowenauthor)
And to whet your appetite here is an early review:
Heirs and Graces is the seventh installment in Rhys Bowen's utterly fabulous Royal Spyness Mystery series. It's Agatha Christie meets P.G. Wodehouse with a dash of Downton Abbey thrown in for good measure, and it's every bit as extraordinary as its predecessors. This book grabs you with the very first sentence and then staunchly refuses to let go. The prose is graceful yet spirited. The narrative drive is strong. The mystery is clever, complex, and is destined to keep you guessing thanks to its wealth of clever clues and viable suspects. And Bowen does a spectacular job transporting readers to 1930s Britain; her descriptions of manor-house life are vivid, and her writing has a remarkable sense of time and place.
Bowen's character work is among the best in the genre. The perfect blend of proper and impertinent, Georgie is a marvelous heroine for whom you can't help but root. Fiancé and partner-in-crime Darcy is not only a great love interest, but a compelling character in his own right. Georgie's flighty actress mother, man-eating best friend, and utterly incompetent maid provide regular doses of comic relief. And murder victim Cedric is so callous and self-absorbed, you'll be rooting for his death from the moment you make his acquaintance.
If you're a fan of mysteries, love historical fiction, or just like good books, give Heirs and Graces by Rhys Bowen a try; I've yet to read a book of Bowen's that I didn't completely and totally adore, and I, for one, can't wait to see what Georgie gets up to next.

Hangover Helper: Hungarian Pancakes with Chicken Goulash at Cinamoon in Greenpoint, Brooklyn
Just what the doctor ordered.
I've said it before and I'll say it again: the Eastern Europeans know how to do hangover food right. What's a particularly fine Polish-ish contribution to the Hangover Helper pantheon? These Hungarian Pancakes with chicken goulash ($9), where hash browns meet biscuits and gravy.
It's a simple dish: two fried potato pancakes and a pot pie-ish stew to soften them. But it's simplicity done right: the pancakes are crisp on the outside and creamy within, devoid of grease and as potato-y as you'd like. Though the chicken in this "goulash" (think cream sauce before paprika stew) is a tad dry, the bechamel-thickened stew it sits in is a creamy, gravy-like dream, with bits of soft peas and carrots for textural interest.
It's the mild chicken-y stew mom would make, salty enough for you to suspect that the broth isn't exactly homemade, but a pleasure nonetheless. A request for some extra sour cream on the side is gilding the lily, but this is Polish Greenpoint. Sour cream is a food group here, and that particular lily is always gilded.
How do you eat your biscuits and gravy? Do you dip or smother? At Cinamoon they give you the best of both worlds. One potato pancake lies beneath the sea of goulash, and the other sits on top. The bottom cake becomes a hot soft mess of potato and gravy, the kind of full-bodied softness at which Eastern European cooking so excels. The top cake, floating mostly out of harm's way, stays crisp, allowing you to soften it in small bites at your own pace.

Cornelis "Kees†Hart, 84, Retired Police Captain And Criminal Justice Training Specialist
Cornelis "Kees†Hart, 84, of Louisville, and previously of Union Hall, Va., died peacefully on Dec. 8, 2012.
Born and raised in Den Helder, Netherlands, he survived the German occupation and went on to attain degrees in education and foreign languages. After arriving in the United States in 1963 with his young family, Kees went on to teach high school foreign language courses (being fluent in five languages) before entering the field of law enforcement in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
He was a proud leader during his 20-year career that included positions as police officer in Eastern Rockingham County and the City of Harrisonburg, Va., and as criminal justice training specialist at the Shenandoah Criminal Justice Training Center and the Academy of Staff Development for the Commonwealth of Virginia.
During Kees' exemplary career he was awarded the Legion of Honor by the American Federation of Police and the Distinguished Police Service Medal by the American Law Enforcement Association in Washington, DC. In 1978, he was named "Police Officer of the Year†in Harrisonburg. After retiring in 1990 with the rank of captain, he settled at Smith Mountain Lake in Union Hall and moved to Louisville in 2005.
Kees' dedication to his career in law enforcement and to his family was the catalyst for the 2005 inauguration of the Louisville Metro Police Foundation, founded by his son GJ, which provides assistance to the brave men and women on the Louisville Metro Police Department.
His deep voice, gift for conversation and amazing storytelling will be terribly missed. He was an avid soccer fan and loved the outdoors with sailing as his preferred pastime. He was branded a true Kentuckian for his unwavering preference for Maker's Mark.
He is survived by Ann, his wife of 60 years; son, Gerard J. Hart (Heather); daughter, Mickey Steinroth, of the Netherlands; grandchildren, Ashley S. Hart, Hillary Hart, Ashley Scarr Hart and Randall Hart; and all the loving extended Hart family and friends.
The family is most grateful to every person that cared for him including Mark Wheeler, MD, and all the dedicated doctors and caring, loving staff of Baptist Hospital East.
A service celebrating his life was held at 11 a.m. Saturday, Dec. 15, 2012, at Shiloh United Methodist Church, 9611 W. Hwy. 42, Goshen, Ky., 40026.
In lieu of flowers, memorial gifts may be made to the Louisville Metro Police Foundation's Cornelis Hart Officer in Distress Fund, 982 Eastern Parkway, Box 5, Louisville, Ky., 40217.

Work on the new McPherson Museum is progressing and on schedule.
Work on the new McPherson Museum is progressing and on schedule.
The outside of the building is nearing completion. Interior walls are up and some electrical, plumbing and painting work has been completed.
The $4 million museum at 1111 E. Kansas Ave. in McPherson is set for a soft opening by Labor Day.
This will include a hospitality center, theater, gathering hall, catering kitchen, museum store and refreshment area.
The gathering hall can be divide into two rooms and will be able to accommodate up to 100 people and open up to a terrace on the east side of the building. The catering kitchen is off the gathering hall and will be available for groups who wish to rent the space.
The front portion of the museum, which includes the theater and gathering hall can be locked off from the exhibit halls. This feature ensures security for the museum artifacts when the front portion of the museum is being utilized for after-hours events by the public.
The theater can accommodate up to 50 people. The museum is looking to partner with Specticast. This is the same company that provides some films for the McPherson Opera House.
Carla Barber, museum executive director, said the museum does not wish to compete with the Opera House. The museum will focus on documentaries and other science or history-based films, she said. Barber said she anticipates the films to primarily to be shown during the day.
The museum will need more time to finish the exhibit areas. Staff hopes to have the opening of the main exhibit hall some time in December.
The main exhibit space is 6,200 square feet. This will include a library, featuring color coffee table books about subjects of interest in McPherson.
Also included in the exhibit will be a fossil exhibit that will feature the museum's three large complete skeletal fossil — the dire wolf, ground sloth and sabertooth tiger — that were excavated from the La Brea tar pits by McPherson College graduate James Zacchaeus Gilbert.
The museum's meteorite collection also will be featured in the main hall.
To the east of the main exhibition hall, will be a 1,800-square-feet art gallery. The gallery will exhibit temporary exhibits and art from the museum's permanent collection. Plans are also being made to feature art from McPherson USD 418 art collection, which may be on long-term loan to the museum.
To the north of the main exhibit hall will be 1,800 square-foot feature gallery that will host traveling and temporary exhibits. The feature hall is adjacent to the museum's shop, which includes an over-head door. This will make it easier to move in large temporary exhibit items. This could even include cars.
In addition to office and storage space, an oral history room has been constructed, where McPherson residents can make audio recordings of their life stories.
The Mid-Kansas Model Railroaders is sponsoring a model train exhibit on the west side of the main exhibit hall. The exhibit will feature two trains with landmarks from the McPherson area.
To the south of the train exhibit, a room for a Family Adventure Center has been constructed. This area likely will be unfinished at the museum's grand opening. Funds still need to be raised to complete this project that will focus on children and families.
While the new museum is being constructed, the former museum site at 1130 E. Euclid St. remains closed.
The museum is still in need of funds for the project. Volunteers are needed to help pack artifacts at the old museum.
Those interested in donating or volunteering Barber at 241-8464.

Employers must provide a summary of benefits of their plans on the first day of coverage or the date of open enrollment for 2013.
Although the requirement for mid-sized employers to offer insurance to employees under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) doesn't kick in until 2014, employers who now offer insurance have some paperwork to do, says Charles Stevens, an attorney and partner with Michael Best & Friedrich, LLP. That includes farmers.
Employers must provide a summary of benefits of their plans on the first day of coverage or the date of open enrollment for 2013. This summary of benefits is an eight-page document that details the coverage offered. Some open enrollment periods begin Oct. 1, so employers must provide that summary of benefits by next Monday. Failure to do so can result in a $1,000 fine for each employee covered by the plan, says Stevens.
All plans, insured and self-funded, must comply. If the summary of benefits is not done correctly, the employer risks benefit claims and possibly penalties, says Stevens. In addition, if an employer makes a mid-year change in benefits, there is now a 60-day advance notice requirement.
Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) officials say they will only impose the penalty for "willful failure" to provide the benefit summaries. But these officials get to define "willful failure," says Stevens. "Clearly, the imposition of penalties is at the discretion of (hopefully, not whim) HHS officials."
Certain "grand-fathered" plans that were in existence prior to March 23, 2010 when ACA was enacted by Congress are exempt from some but not all rules. Non-grandfathered plans will be subject to more stringent rules, especially starting in 2014.
A grandfathered plan will lose that status if it has had substantial changes since the law was enacted. "If you have any doubt that your policies have remained grandfathered, talk to your broker or your lawyer," says Stevens.
For mid-sized employers, those with 50 or more employees, the tough decisions come later next year. By 2014, these employers will have to offer "minimum essential coverage" or pay penalties. But it's complicated.
First off is the calculation of what constitutes 50 employees. In the ACA, a full-time employee is defined as a person who normally works 30+ hours per week. Part-time employees are also included in the calculation. The hours per month of all part-time employees are added and that number is divided by 120 hours to come up with a full-time equivalent.
Example: an employer with 10 part-time employees who work an average in total 840 hours per month divided by 120 equals seven full-time equivalent (FTE) employees. These seven FTEs must be added to the number of other employees who work at least 30 hours per week to see if the 50-employee threshold is reached. Seasonal workers are excluded from the calculation, but leased employees are included.
There are also aggregation rules for businesses under common control. HHS will not allow companies to split into smaller entities to avoid the 50-employee threshold, says Stevens.
If a company offers no coverage, if it pays less than 60% of the cost of the coverage or if it does not follow other rules, the company is subject to a $2,000 per employee per year penalty. However, the penalty is not applied to the first 30 employees nor to part-time employees. So if a farm has 60 full-time employees, it would pay the $2,000 penalty on 30 employees—or $60,000 per year ($5,000 per month). In most cases, this is less than the cost of insurance—and paying the penalty is likely to be cheaper than providing insurance.
But it gets even more complicated, says Stevens. If an employee qualifies for government-subsidized insurance through an insurance exchange (because his household income is under 400% of the Federal Poverty Level and his employer requires him to pay more than 9.5% of his household income for coverage), the employer could be subject to a $3,000 penalty per employee.
It's little wonder ACA is so controversial. "A lot will be determined by the election in November," says Stevens.
"Even if President Obama is re-elected, you could see some delay in the 'pay or play' rules and in the creation of state and federal insurance exchanges. Some of this stuff just won't work," he says.
If Romney is elected but the Democrats retain control of the Senate, ACA would remain the law of the land. But House Republicans could put financial restrictions on the agencies administering the law—HHS, the Department of Labor and the Internal Revenue Service—which could delay rule writing and enforcement.
"If we don't get consensus in Congress, it will be a bumpy ride," says Stevens.

text: Jan Solo 0 Posted October 21, 2012 It is said on page 136 of the Beta rules that "Weapon customisations may only be applied to a piece of equipment that is part of the Standard Regimental Kit or a favoured weapon of the soldier's Regiment. Guardsmen never have sufficient exposure or training to safely customise more specialised weapons." Can Specialist Gear be therefore customised, or not? Can a sergeant customise his Chain Sword, a Ratling his Sniper Rifle, or a Storm Trooper his Hotshot Lasgun? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gov. Rick Perry, a grinning girl and a tiny guitar. What more do you need for an internet buzz?
The caption under the photo (originally posted at giantspacefetus, picked up by Buzzfeed and linked to by @PerryVsWorld): "My friend lives next door to Rick Perry and invited him over for a Guitar Hero battle."
Could it be a real photo? Why yes, said Perry spokesman Josh Havens.
Havens said it was taken about three years ago when the Perrys were living in the Estates Above Lost Creek subdivision while the Governor's Mansion was being repaired and renovated.
"The governor of Texas is cool," Havens said. "The guy played drums with ZZ Top."
That was at a Washington party during President George W. Bush's second inauguration in 2005.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. - The No. 67 Santa Clara men's tennis team responded well after losing to Stanford on Wednesday with a 6-1 win over West Coast Conference foe San Francisco on Thursday. With some new faces in the lineup, the Broncos won all three doubles matches and five out of six singles matches to claim the 6-1 victory. Kenzo Hirakawa-Wong played his first dual match singles match of the year and earned a win, while Jay Wong won his 27th match of the season.
With Bobby Rasmussen and Robert Gallman out of the lineup, the Broncos had a new look at doubles. Steven Benvenuto slid into Gallman's spot at No. 2 alongside Blane Shields and the pair won 8-5 to get the day started. Jan Macek and Kevin McQuaid won a close one at No. 1 8-6 to give SCU the doubles point. Brian Brogan and Jay Wong then closed out doubles with another solid performance, winning 8-5 to complete the sweep.
The lineup in singles also saw some changes as Brogan moved to No. 1 singles for the first time in his career, while Hirakawa-Wong slid into the No. 6 spot. Brogan battled throughout the day at No. 1, but fell in a close match to Matthew Berry 5-7, 6-4, 7-6 (6). Brogan nearly won the match in the third set, but Berry came back from a 5-3 deficit to win in a tiebreaker.
The Broncos won the rest of the singles matches, led by Hirakawa-Wong, who captured his first dual match singles win of the year. He took down Mitch Del Rosario in a three-set match that was not settled until another third-set tiebreaker. Hirakawa-Wong won 6-4, 3-6, 7-6 (5). Shields and Wong also won three-set matches for SCU, playing at the No. 4 and No. 3 spots respectively. Both players used clutch play in the third set to earn their victories.
Macek played No. 2 for the first time this season and cruised to a straight sets win, while Hicks bounced back from a tough loss against Stanford with the match-clinching win at No. 5. Hicks took down Rainer Nachbauer 6-2, 7-5.
Santa Clara now gets a week off before hosting three matches in three days next week. The Broncos play Nevada on Friday, April 13 at 5:00 p.m. PT at the Degheri Tennis Center and then close out the regular season with two matches on Sunday, April 15. SCU plays UC San Diego at 10:00 a.m. and then Sacramento State at 3:00 p.m. The team will honor its seniors, Macek and Rasmussen, prior to the Sacramento State match.

text: Due for two visits to Farringdon within the space of this August – drum & bass producer, Basher, first lands this Friday for RAM and follows up with another set on the bank holiday weekend for the Playaz Carnival Special. It's kind of hard to believe that Basher only put out his debut release on RAM a year ago , following it with his first album after over 20 years of ramping up his rep as a DJ. Considering how polished the end product sounds it's evident he's put the time in, building his talents in the studio to back up his DJing. Both talents are exhibited here on our blog (through this double exclusive) in this new mix from the producer, which features MC 2Shy hosting, which he created especially for us dropping the first listen of his new track 'Compulsion' as an added extra.
