Bachelor of Arts in Spanish
Students who do not intend to teach in American public schools may complete the Spanish major without teacher-certification. It requires 32 credits of coursework, which includes study of Spanish grammar, conversation, composition and literature. This standard academic major will prepare a student for traditional graduate programs in Spanish language and literature, and it will make study-abroad experiences with Spanish-speaking cultures particularly accessible.
Students who complete the Bachelor of Arts in Spanish may go on to graduate school and complete a Masters or a Ph.D. in Spanish. For such students, many opportunities for college and university teaching exist, worldwide. Evangel alumni who acquire graduate degrees are especially well suited to teach in Christian higher education institutions, many of which have Spanish degree programs to meet the growing demand for professionals with Spanish literacy, particularly in the United States. Students who do not intend to teach at the college level may find this major helpful in securing jobs for which fluency in Spanish is a requirement. Combined with another major or minor, the B.A. in Spanish can be a particularly potent qualification for such employment across a wide range of professions.

Week 5 Miami Dolphins Beat New York Jets
The video is the last two minutes of the game, so enjoy.

OK, I had to comment on this one. Thanks for reminding me what an awesome night this was!!ReplyDelete
I've been a Dolphins fan since the early 80's, living in Bermuda, never been to a live game. Through Facebook I found the buddy I hadn't seen in 20 years who got me into the Phins as a kid and gave me this life long love affair. Turns out he's still just as much a Phinatic as I am and I decide I'm finally gonna go to Miami to watch my first live game.
And this was the game I picked - kind of a no brainer, the hated Jests on MNF! Couldn't have scripted it any better than that. This night ranks up in the top 5 moments of my life after my wedding day and being in Canton to see Danny get inducted.
Will never forget this one, and never get tired of watching the highlights...
For a football fan there is nothing like going to your first game. The first game I went to was Super Bowl III Jets/Colts in the Orange Bowl. Yes I was there, it is no lie. We had sideline seats at about the 5 yard line row 22 lower deck closed end of the field Colts side.ReplyDelete
I wish I remembered more of the game than what I do. I was 17 or 18 at the time. 2 years later and I had Dolphin season tickets and held them for the next 6 years until we moved out of the area. I still live in FL. about 100 miles away, and follow the Dolphins like some people follow their God :)
This has to be one of the greatest games of my life. I watched it three times in a row because I enjoyed it so much.ReplyDelete
Football can leave you with some pretty great memories.
There is charter boat captain that runs a guide service out of the Vero Beach area. He has a saying when he closes out giving his weekly fishing reports.
The phrase he uses is : Go out catch yourself a memory..
I think that sums up the feeling I have when ever I get to see a game.
There is just something about beating the Jets that leaves me with the same feelings when latching on to big snook. Both of them leave a great memory :))
Agreed Riverdog. Down with the jetsReplyDelete

After suffering a 6-0 loss at Rio Tinto Stadium last April, the Revs dropped a 5-0 decision on Friday night at the same venue
SANDY, Utah – The New England Revolution entered Rio Tinto Stadium on Friday night in search of redemption after suffering a crushing 6-0 loss at the hands of Real Salt Lake last season. What the Revs got instead was a hefty dose of déjà vu, as RSL once again ran riot en route to a 5-0 victory to extend its club-record unbeaten streak to nine games.
Just as they did last year – when they went into halftime scoreless before surrendering six second-half goals – the Revs began the game well enough and could even have been considered to be on the front foot in the opening stages.
The sides played relatively even through the first 25 minutes, with RSL holding a slight advantage in possession and a slender 4-3 lead in shots. But when Fabian Espindola ran onto Robbie Russell's long pass and gave the hosts a 1-0 lead in the 27th minute, it was all downhill from there.
Jamison Olave scored on the stroke of halftime to give RSL a 2-0 lead going into the break, before Alvaro Saborio scored his team-leading sixth and seventh goals of the season just five minutes apart early in the second half to put the game out of reach.
"The biggest thing is a lack of professionalism," said a clearly aggravated Steve Nicol after the match. "We had a set way that we were going to do things and it worked for about 25 minutes, and then we just gave them three goals. The first goal starts it off, the second goal was terrible, the third goal was terrible. When you're giving teams three goals, it's unprofessional. That's really what it is."
Returning U.S. National Team forward Robbie Findley compounded the Revolution's misery with the fifth goal in the 85th minute, scoring in his first appearance for Salt Lake since returning from duty at the 2010 FIFA World Cup. Findley started the match on the bench, but he entered at halftime and received a raucous ovation from the 19,101 fans in attendance.
Findley's goal brought the final tally ever-so-close to the 6-0 defeat the Revs suffered at Rio Tinto Stadium last season. After focusing on redemption throughout the week, another devastating loss was not exactly what the Revolution had expected.
"It's just bad," said midfielder Sainey Nyassi, who played the full 90 minutes in the six-goal loss in 2009 and 61 minutes in the 5-0 defeat on Friday night. "Last year we came out here and lost 6-0, and this year we come here and we lose 5-0. It's just disheartening. We just have to forget about this one and move on to the next one."
The Revs are perhaps best advised to take Nyassi's advice and forget about what happened in Salt Lake City, but one player who is likely to remember for a long time is rookie midfielder Jason Griffiths. After signing with the Revs last week and making his MLS debut with a substitute appearance against the Fire, Griffiths was handed his first career start on Friday night.
Playing alongside Shalrie Joseph at the start of the match, Griffiths settled in nicely and looked composed in the opening stages. But soon the floodgates opened and the 23-year-old's starting debut took a turn he couldn't have seen coming.
"It was tough," Griffiths admitted. "The conditions are hard. [Real Salt Lake] got off to a good start with an early goal and then they ran all over us to be honest. It was tough out there."
It would be easy for the Revs to blame their difficulties in Salt Lake City on the altitude, a factor which has clearly played a part in RSL's dominant home form. But the thin air can't explain the Revs being shut out in five of their last six regular-season games and winning just once in their last 11 league contests.
That, according to Nicol, has a much more simple explanation.
"We didn't lose tonight because of altitude," he said. "We lost tonight because we didn't do basic stuff properly. The fundamentals and basics of the game are things we didn't do, and that's why we lost."

'Sex and the City' star Cynthia Nixon pushes for school funds
Photo: PAUL BUCKOWSKI
ALBANY - Actress Cynthia Nixon and top education officials were at the Capitol on Monday to push for more funding for schools.
The former "Sex and the City" star was joined by superintendents from the Capital Region and Rochester areas.
The visit comes as Gov. Andrew Cuomo and legislative leaders work to finalize a state budget for 2014-15.
Officials with the teachers union and other advocates have pushed for tax increases on wealthy New Yorkers as a way to increase funding education spending.
Nixon has made several trips to the region over the last decade to speak out on education issues.

For the first time since 2007, the CCRI men's basketball team is headed back to the NJCAA Division II National Tournament.
And as the Knights punched their ticket Saturday afternoon, they left no doubt that they belonged.
Hosting Lackawanna College of Pennsylvania in the Northeast District championship game, the Knights saw a 13-point first-half lead dwindle to four at the break but came out of the locker room and hit the gas. They started the second half on a 19-6 run and never looked back, out-scoring the Falcons 49-19 after halftime and storming to a 97-63 victory.
The win improved the team's program-best record to 28-4 and earned CCRI its 12th trip to nationals.
"It's great," said CCRI head coach Rick Harris, who took the Knights to nationals in 2007. "We went my first year, and I was thinking, 'Oh this is going to be easy.' It's not easy getting there. CCRI, with the tradition we have and what (former coach) Vin Cullen built, everyone gives us their best shot. We have a target on our back each and every game. For us to deal with that and go 28-4 with people giving us their best effort, it's a credit to these guys and how they've handled themselves."
The Knights, who have been ranked as high as third in national polls, went 26-4 in the regular season and finished with eight straight wins. They then won the Region XXI championship over Orange County CC, putting themselves one win away from nationals.
Standing in the way was Lackawanna, which went 13-15 in the regular season but won its last three games. And the Falcons came out firing Saturday, with Javon White hitting back-to-back threes to make it 6-0 in the early going.
The Knights regrouped quickly and put together a 16-2 run midway through the first half, but Lackawanna didn't go away. A barrage of 3-pointers in the final four minutes sparked a 10-0 run, and the Knights led just 48-44 at halftime.
The second half was a completely different story.
CCRI switched to a 1-3-1 zone defense and threw the Falcons for a loop, allowing just five points in the first 5:30 of the second half.
And in the meantime, the Knights heated up.
After a free throw by the Falcons started the scoring, Roger Livramento scored inside for the Knights. A turnover led to a three by Desmond Williams, and he buried another on CCRI's next trip. A Falcons bucket momentarily stopped the bleeding, but Livramento hit a free throw and Williams drained a deep three with a defender on him to make it 60-47.
Lackawanna cut the lead to 11 on its next trip but would never get closer. Chris Canino stepped out for a three on CCRI's next possession, and Jeff Schmeltz followed with a bucket inside. A runner by Bryan Yarce capped off the 19-6 surge.
"We usually start the second half in a 1-3-1 zone and it's been working the whole year," Yarce said. "Defense started it off and that's how we got the big lead."
The 1-3-1 has been a spark all season, and clearly, it worked again.
"We used that 1-3-1 defense," Harris said. "I used to use that in high school at Cranston East and it won us some big games. You don't see it much in college ball. No one has had an answer for it. We stayed with it longer than we normally stay with it. Multiple games this year, we've been up three or four points, we go to 1-3-1 and we put together a big run to start the second half."
As the second half went on Saturday, Lackawanna never really solved the defense. And at the other end, the Knights continued to fire on all cylinders.
Leading by 14 with 10:01 left, the Knights blitzed the Falcons with a 12-0 run that took just over three minutes. It included another Williams three, two buckets inside by Isaac Medeiros and a tough basket by Trevor Mabry.
When it was over the Knights led 85-59 and could put it on cruise control. For good measure, they finished the game on a 10-0 run, with the exclamation point coming on a behind-the-back pass by Livramento that led to a fast-break dunk by Brenden Barboza.
Williams led the Knights with a game-high 29 points and he hit seven of nine 3-point attempts. Livramento had a double-double with 13 points and 19 rebounds, Mabry tallied 18 points, Medeiros scored 12 and Yarce dished out 12 assists without committing a turnover.
"We're just so hard to deal with because we have so many weapons – Yarce, Williams, the inside guys Mabry, Livramento, Isaac Medeiros off the bench," Harris said. "My wife asked me last week if I was nervous going into the region games. I said, 'No, I've got a lot of talent in my back pocket.' When you've got a team like this that works hard in practice and has the ability they have, it makes you pretty confident. As long as you follow your gameplan and the kids stay level-headed, you've got a good chance."
That's been a pretty good formula for the Knights. They've battled some adversity and lost a handful of players for various reasons as the season has gone on, but in the last month or so, everything has clicked.
"I'll be honest," Harris said. "We've lost a few kids, one or two to grades, another kid left us. After that last defection about a month ago, we came together tremendously. We jelled after that happened. This is the group that has bought into our total team style."
Now the Knights get to see how far that style can take them. The national tournament will be held at Danville Area Community College in Danville, Ill., beginning on Tuesday, March 20. The Knights don't yet know who they'll be matched up with, but they're excited.
"It's like getting to the big dance for the Division I schools," Harris said. "Getting to nationals is very challenging. What a treasure for the kids and the program. You get the cream of the crop. There are some high-powered teams there every year. It's an exciting event."
And the Knights are hoping to make some noise.
"We worked hard all year," Yarce said. "Beginning of the season, coach Harris set goals for us. The first one was win the region, win the region tournament and then get to districts. It feels good to accomplish those goals and we still have one more – win it all."

Can't wait till Nov. 17 to find out what Sarah Palin is going to include in her memoir "Going Rogue"? Time magazine's Mark Halperin can offer you a few tantalizing hints, such as the fact that Palin does some serious score-settling with the McCain campaign and that (despite the presence of a collaborator) the book really sounds like Palin (meaning that it has "a warm and personal tone.")
Early copies of the book (which will be officially released on the 17th) are already being shipped and Halperin says sources of his have either seen it or been briefed on its contents. Writing on Time magazine's website, Halperin also says that the book includes five long chapters, heartily trounces the national media, and emphasizes the importance of faith in Palin's life.
What it does not do, says Halperin, is offer "hefty policy prescriptions" or include an index (unusual for a political book – in Washington the real-life characters included in such books appreciate the ability to quickly check the back to find out where they're mentioned).
Palin's book tour (which she will make by bus, accompanied by members of her family), kicks off on Nov. 18 in Grand Rapid. But Halperin, who saw her return to public speaking on Nov. 6 outside Milwaukee, say that two things are already clear: "Palin is now a thoroughly professional rogue — and she is going to sell a ton of books."
Despite occasional instances of misspeaking, Halperin says that Palin was easily able to energize her audience with lines like: "Don't let anyone ever tell you to sit down and shut up."
But is she acting like a candidate? Halperin says no. "For now," he writes, "she's all about polishing her brand for its purchasing — not its political — power."

Let's Lagoon
Let's Lagoon by OKAZAKI Takeshi
Genre: Ecchi, Psychological, Romance, Seinen
Description: Being stranded in a certain inhibited island with only vague memories of what happened sure is pretty scary. What's worse is that protagonist Yamada-kun only have seven days worth of food. The worst though, is that he's alone. Yep. Not even a Wilson around. Or so he thought.
Four days after washing up on the island, he decided to make a boat to escape the island. When he thought of rationing his food, he finds a girl (his age) named Imaise Chika, eating his, "now", only three days worth of food. He realizes she was also washed up on the island four days ago, and that she remembers what he couldn't.
They decided to help each other, realizing they can live on the island longer.
I recently found this series. Only three chapters are out and scanlated. The art is decent and although it is kind of stereotypical, there's something about it that is still interesting. Anyone else read this?

I was planning on making this thread but seems I was beat to it. Anyway I love the way this story is setting up. Two people stranded on an island, a guy and a girl, you would think this is a dream come true for the main protagonist but it not. Yamada quickly finds an attraction for Chika but finds out she has a boyfriend and can't make any further advancements. Chika, meanwhile is a cute attractive girl when without her glass can't see a thing. I think this should be fun and interesting to see these two interact and find they're way out of the island.
As for why this series is labeled Psychological, you won't see it in the first three chapters but it happens in chapter 6.

Where is everyone getting rape from? Seriously, this is the third time I've seen this, it seems to be coming right out of the blue. First off, in no where of the first 6 chapters available, is there a scene in which Chika is raped, no where! If you want to know what really goes on I'll explain more in detail in the spoiler below.

I'm pretty sure at the end of chapter 6 they said the manga was taking a break until November, so the next chapter will probably show up in the next couple of weeks.
Just to clarify a couple of things that happened in chapter 6...

OH MAN! This is a good manga. You really feel for the guy too. I wished that her eye sight was a lie though, it would have made for some interesting moments when he found out and all.
As for the cliffhanger... OH MAN! I have no idea where this is going. It can go so many ways right about now.
Can't wait for the next chapter.

Well was browsing through the web and spied the lastest release of this, so thought I'll check it out, read the premise and said "yea lets have a look"
It's not bad at all, wasn't really much to it till ch 6 and well ch 7 carries on bringing the questions.
Having had a little think about whats happened so far, I think how much I'll continue to read, depends on how well the supernatural aspect is handled, if theres a solid idea behind it then sure should continue to be a good read but if done somewhat poorly then I probably would put it on the backburner.
For the moment ch 7 has got me hooked, as the last line certainly raises a WTF

I am really glad this story turned out this way. And has something else than what it seems to be first , ecchi situations.
This is now getting intriguing.
I can't wait for the next chapter (guess i will have to wait some months). I really want to know how he got this Bra, if the 10 days weren't for real.

Finally, a new chapter. It's so short too.
Well, we got a little more information on what happened, and met two new characters.
Can't wait for more.

Taylor Swift Shares Creative 'Eyes Open' Lyric Video
Taylor Swift's rocking singing voice in this cryptic song has been the perfect addition to 'The Hunger Games' soundtrack, but so far, we haven't seen the 'Eyes Open' and 'Safe & Sound' singer do much with the music she made for the movie (other than contribute to an awesome soundtrack, of course). Until now, that is. Swift just released a creative stop-motion lyric video of her hit song 'Eyes Open' — and we can't get enough.
The entire video takes place at a desk. While that might sound boring, as pencils and papers move around displaying the handwritten (and sometimes colorfully decorated) lyrics to the song, the clip is anything but ordinary. Watching papers unfold and then crumble up to clutter the desk is kind of a magical experience.
Swift posted the creative new video on her Facebook page just Thursday (May 17), and within hours, it received more than 14,000 likes, 700 shares, and hundreds of supportive comments from fans.
The sweetheart singer contributed both 'Eyes Open' and 'Safe & Sound' (a team effort with the Civil Wars) to the star-studded soundtrack, and while we've seen the hauntingly beautiful video for 'Safe & Sound,' this is the first treatment that 'Eyes Open' has gotten.
The song was penned from the perspective of 'The Hunger Games' main character, Katniss. "It basically serves as a warning for her not to trust anyone — in many ways the opposite of 'Safe & Sound,'" Swift explained.
The liner notes for 'The Hunger Games' soundtrack also feature Miranda Lambert and Pistol Annies, Punch Brothers, Kid Cudi, the Decemberists and a handful of other notable artists.
A lyric video doesn't sound very interesting, but this one is worth a watch. Trust us!

First and fourth ingredients are named meat products.
Use of low quality grains, and other controversial filler.
The first ingredient in this food is a named meat product. However, it is lamb inclusive of its water content (about 80%) and once that is removed it is likely that this ingredient would be more accurately placed somewhat further down the ingredient list (ingredients are listed in order of weight). There is a further meat (meal) at 4th on the ingredient list, but the food is primarily grain.
Brewers rice is the main grain in the food and is a low quality grain and by-product. Brown rice, the third ingredient, is a decent quality grain.
We note that chicken fat is the fifth ingredient. But when the two forms of chicken are un-split, fat is the fourth ingredient. Research at Purdue University has identified a fat in the top four ingredients of a dry dog food as a factor that increases the risk of bloat in large breed dogs. Smaller breeds are untested.
We note the use of soy isolate and soya oil in the food. Soy is a poor quality source of protein in dog food, and a common cause of allergy problems. Some believe that it is the number 1 cause of food allergies in dogs (outstripping even wheat).
Cellulose is filler. It is purified, mechanically disintegrated cellulose prepared by processing alpha cellulose obtained as a pulp from fibrous plant materials: otherwise known as sawdust.
Beet pulp is another filler and a controversial ingredient it is a by-product, being dried residue from sugar beets which has been cleaned and extracted in the process of manufacturing sugar. It is a controversial ingredient in dog food, claimed by some manufacturers to be a good source of fibre, and derided by others as an ingredient added to slow down the transition of rancid animal fats and causing stress to kidney and liver in the process. We note that beet pulp is an ingredient that commonly causes problems for dogs, including allergies and ear infections, and prefer not to see it used in dog food especially so high on the ingredient list. There are less controversial products around if additional fibre is required.

Nice. Pretty amazing what some of these tiny cameras can do these days.
With the advent of large sensor compact and SLR in video I envisage the death of underwater video with camcorders with small sensors pretty much now...
Posted 12 December 2012 - 04:53 AM
I did notice occasional vignetting (e.g. top left at 3:50) and occasional soft corners in your first video. Also quite a lot of blown-out highlights in the macro shots. On the other hand some nice magnification on the nudi at 4:41 and the pygmy seahorse 4:50. Which diopter combination did you use for that? And which lens caused the vignetting?
Posted 12 December 2012 - 07:55 AM
For the Pygmy I used one or two diopters with 6 or 12 power.
Can you tell me where you see the blown highlights? Are you referring to the night dive?
The lenses I use are in the details of each video they are all Inon
This is the clip of the second part of the trip by then I had worked out what to do with the filter :-)

Posted 13 December 2012 - 08:15 AM
Anyway I have now found all those RX100 threads in the Consumer Digicams/Housings forum so I will work my way through them and probably take further discussion over there.
Posted 13 December 2012 - 08:48 AM
For the night dive I use the camera program mode usually in spot metering as my main concern is the subject not the surroundings. As the RX100 lacks depth of field I need to pump up the lights until I get F8 or smaller aperture. This creates issues with the surroundings and with objects that are white especially when part of the subject is dark (black fish on white sand) again in some cases these could be fixed with manual exposure however considering the shutter speed and the ISO are pretty much fixed once you reach F11 you are pretty much done and sometimes this is not sufficient either

Re. soft corners, am I right in thinking that there is currently no known wide adaptor that gives sharp corners with the Nauticam?
Posted 13 December 2012 - 11:14 PM
Re. the exposure, I understand Interceptor. I think I would try and go for a lower ISO in some of those situations, then have more chance of retrieving highlight detail in post, while pumping up the midtones/shadows. What do you mean by "pretty much fixed"?
Re. soft corners, am I right in thinking that there is currently no known wide adaptor that gives sharp corners with the Nauticam?
The lowest ISO for the Rx100 in video is 125. I had a Sanyo before with lowest ISO of 50. So all you can do is to close aperture
Re wide lens that is a good question would love to make some tests. Lenses with domes with fisheye view seem to perform best. Flat lenses need testing unfortunately I can't buy 2-3 lenses just to try out. Just today am going to out the rx100 in the bathtub and try some shots with slates to see what is actually happening however in still mode the lens is 28mm whilst in video is 33 due to cropping for stabilisation so I will have vignetting in still or I will have to zoom which is not really the same in terms of chromatic aberration and sharpness
I will keep you posted
Posted 13 December 2012 - 11:27 PM

Damn that large sensor! A faster shutter is not the end of the world on a lot of macro, especially fairly static stuff like nudibranchs. Can look too stuttery with something like a fast swimming juvenile clownfish though.
I will keep you posted
Posted 14 December 2012 - 01:52 AM
Soft corners: if I fill the lens with a slate the image is sharp from f4 and smaller, regardless of what lens I have. This is because of sensor size. I guess a video camera with a 1/3" like yours will always be sharper at lower apertures. However the Sony really has very low level of noise so it compensates with image quality and higher equivalent ISO. This is just a wide angle issue when you have subject in focus at a certain distance and corners much closer or further away
Chromatic aberration: I have dome other checks and there is a little bit of fringing in corners however you need to super zoom to actually see it
All in all not bad for a compact camera. I have also tried with a fisheye lens the corners are sharper however things look to tiny and I can't use a filter so no go

Posted 16 December 2012 - 12:24 PM
For what concerns angle of coverage 100 diagonal that is around 90 horizontal is good otherwise things look too tiny. I am only planning to use the fisheye for photos not for video as I don't have lights to cover such angle, actually they don't exist!
The inon gives you the additional advantage to add a dome later should you wish so, but I doubt for video a dome is really needed except whales and similar

Good point about getting a bayonet instead of screwing the UWLH-100 in. I'm wondering about a way to have a UWLH-100 with blue water CC filter interchangeable with a Subsee +10 underwater. I see there is the Saga Dive Dual Flip that I suppose could hold the Subsee and the CC filter, but that doesn't really help if one wants to use the wide lens and the CC filter together. Any ideas?
Posted 17 December 2012 - 05:43 AM
Take also into account that a +10 diopter is only good for super-super macro so you may want to consider a +5 or +6 (there is a post about macro on my blog with more details)
The solution I adopt is to get a push on filter for the wide angle lens (deeproof makes one for the UWLH-100 and you can also try an ikelite with a lanyard) and use a bayonet diopter that can be stacked. With Inon diopters you can get an UCL165LD that is +6 and add another +3 or +6 on top adding another diopter with M67 mount.
With a bayonet caddy placed on an arm you can then switch lenses safely in water

Take a look something is going on with this kid. The question is what?
The video you are watching is of 13 year old Deja Kitchiner. Deja's Junior tennis career is unique in many ways. For one Deja was invited to train at a world class tennis academy and she has respectfully declined. Deja's game and development has also been very visible to the public. Deja has been uploading videos of her tennis talents on you tube since she was 10 years old. The videos are often met with mixed reviews, & some have even reached over 100,000 views. Most of Deja's older videos have been taken down because they contained copy written music. Deja has decided to start fresh, and currently Deja's other live video is at 75,000 views and counting. Deja is also unique because she is blessed with tremendous athletic explosiveness, and a playing style that is beautiful to watch. While some notable tennis players have been trained by their parents, most including Venus and Serena Williams eventually went on to receive training from outside (Rick Macci and the Nick Bollettieri Tennis Academy)sources. Keep this fact in mind when getting to know Deja. Deja is essentially attempting to teach herself to become a world class tennis player. Other than a minor grip change at age 9. Deja's game has been untouched since age 3. At the time of filming this video Deja is 5'5 inches tall, and weighs 130 pounds. This is currently a very similar stature to that of Deja's favorite WTA tour player Justine Henin. In comparison to most juniors Deja plays a relatively small schedule. In the beginning this was due to financial reasons, now the smallish schedule is due to Deja working on her craft and fine tuning different aspects of her game. Including her serve & volley, and Steffi Graf style of play. Deja is a true all court player who on any given day might come in on virtually every serve. The fact that Deja has so many options at her disposal is sometimes both a blessing and a curse. Deja is currently the epitome of a hot and cold player who is sometimes confused at what style she should play. It is well known that many professional all court players, even Roger Federer struggled with this aspect of all court play while developing. Why should Deja be any different? If you have followed Deja's career, then you are aware that when she was 6 She played in the 10's division. When she was 10 she played in the 18s, and every since then she has registered in mainly 18 year old events. This was done purposely so that she could get used to playing against a pro style ball. Deja in fact was groomed to be a professional from the very start at age 3. When Deja's father noticed that pace and challenging pro style drills were easy for Deja, he never looked backed. Deja has been training to be a professional every since. Deja essentially skipped playing with kids her age, and rarely had to play when she was the dominant athlete. Recent struggles at the 18's challenger junior level(a level in which Deja won consistently at age 12) has helped Deja's father recall something from a book titled "Training A Tiger" The book was written by Earl Wood the late father of Tiger Woods. Earl Woods was famous for moving Tiger up to the next level when his son Tiger was unable to focus or to get up for matches when he was the physically dominant player. Deja's family is struggling with this dilemma currently and this aspect of junior tennis is proving to be one of the consequences of Deja declining the tennis academy scholarship. At the academy Deja would know for sure that on a match by match basis she would be up against people who are preparing for the same goal. Deja must certainly concentrate on this a bit, but not to the point to where she changes her game or mindset to fit the non attacking style of junior tennis. Venus & Serena Williams avoided junior tournaments all together after age 12,possibly the drastic differences between junior and pro tennis contributed to this fact. The fact that with each other the sisters could always play high quality tennis meant that they didnt have to play top junior players to gauge themselves. Deja doesnt have this luxury. For this reason the family has come to the decision that it is time for Deja to step up to the next level of Junior play which is ITF tournaments, and national events. Deja is currently working on better understanding playing styles, and what tactics are best suited to combat the different styles. When Deja gets a grasp on this aspect of tennis "look out" because as you may have noticed she is certainly equipped with every shot, style, and physical attribute to execute the game plan on the next level. In December of 2009(8thgrade) Deja decided to home school so that she could focus further on her tennis game. Feel free to rate & comment. Subscribe if you are interested in tracking Deja's quest to become a great professional.

Each hand-rolled stick contains a unique combination of traditional and synthetic pigments, combined to bring out their inherent beauty. Colors lay down with minimal resistance allowing several layers to accrue without becoming too thick.
Color Swatches created using heavy to light application and were applied on 100 lb (163 gsm) drawing paper material.
Pigment PY74 is one of the most commercially important pigments of the Hansa Yellow group, considered superior to many others in its class based on both tinting strength and lightfastness. Several PY74 grades with different particle sizes are available. Grades with finer particle size are more brilliant and transparent. Pigment PY74 ranges from reddish yellow to greenish yellow, with temperature shifts from cool to warm hues. It has high tinting strength and average to slow drying time.
This Hansa Yellow has better lightfastness that other yellow monoazo pigments, particularly in the darker shades.
Hansa Yellow has no significant acute hazards, though its chronic hazards have not been well studied.
Hansa Yellows were first made in Germany just before WW1 from a series of synthetic dyestuffs called Pigment Yellow. They were intended to be a synthetic replacement for Cadmium Yellow.
Arylide, Arylide Yellow, Azo, Brilliant Yellow, Monoazo, Monolite Yellow, Permanent Yellow.
hydrated iron oxide
α-FeO3+(OH) or Fe2O3
Raw Sienna is a moderately dull deep earth yellow with medium tinting strength and excellent transparency. It is one of the basic permanent artists' pigments and is made from a form of limonite clay whose yellow-brown color results from ferric oxides. Raw Sienna is preferable to Yellow Ochre for creating flesh tones, due to its higher subtlety of color when mixed with white. It creates a bright Ochre when mixed with Cadmium Yellow and creates greens and grays when mixed with Ultramarine. Raw Sienna dries quickly.
Raw Sienna has good permanence.
Raw Sienna has no significant hazards.
Raw Sienna has been used as a pigment since prehistoric times, although its current name came about during the Renaissance. It comes from the city of Siena, in Italy, and is short for terra di Siena, meaning earth of Siena. Sienna was famous for the mining and production of earth pigments from the Renaissance until World War II. Due to the depletion of clay deposits in Tuscany, Italian siennas now come from other areas, including Sicily and Sardinia.
Italian Earth, Natural Brown Iron Oxide, Sienna.
titanium dioxide
Titanium White is the most brilliant of the white pigments. It is considered an all purpose oil color useful in all techniques and the best all around white. Its masstone is neither warm nor cool, placing it somewhere between Lead White and Zinc White. It is less prone to cracking and yellowing than Lead White, but it still yellows easily. Titanium White dries slowly in oil form, more slowly than Lead White but more quickly than Zinc White. It is opaque in oil and acrylic forms and semi-opaque in watercolor form. This pigment has good chemical stability, and its tinting strength is superior to both Lead White and Zinc White.
Titanium White has excellent permanence and lightfastness.
Titanium dioxide is highly stable and is regarded as completely non-toxic. Animal studies give no indiciation that it is absorbed biologically, even after long periods of exposure. The primary safety concern is with inhalation of fine pigment dust particles. Titanium White, if inhaled in large amounts over the course of several years, may cause a benign pneumoconiosis that is visible on x-rays. The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) considers fine titanium dioxide particles, if inhaled, to be a human carcinogen. The primary concern for artists is to avoid exposure to fine particulate dust from raw pigments.
Titanium is the ninth most abundant element in the Earth's crust, however mineral deposits that are economical to mine are less common. Titanium dioxide was first discovered in 1821, although it could not be mass produced until 1919. Widespread use of the pigment began in the 1940s. Since that time, it has become the most commonly used white pigment. The name comes from the Latin word Titan, the name for the elder brother of Kronos and ancestor of the Titans, and from the Greek word tito, meaning day or sun.
complex silicate of sodium and aluminum with sulfur
Na8-10Al6Si6O24S2-4 or Na6-8Al6Si6O24S2-4
Ultramarine is the standard warm blue, a brilliant blue pigment that has the most purple and least green in its undertone. It has a moderate to high tinting strength and a beautiful transparency. Synthetic Ultramarine is not as vivid a blue as natural Ultramarine. Ultramarine dries slowly in oil and tends to produce clean, though granular, washes in watercolor. French Ultramarine mixes well with Alizarin colors in oil and watercolor form to create a range of purples and violets. It can dull when mixed with white in acrylic form, but mixes well with other colors. The shade varies based on manufacturer. Considered a great color for glazes, it is not suitable for frescoing.
Ultramarine has excellent permanence, although synthetic Ultramarine is not as permanent as natural Ultramarine. It may discolor if exposed to acid because of its sulfuric content.
Ultramarine has no significant hazards.
The name for this pigment comes from the Middle Latin ultra, meaning beyond, and mare, meaning sea, because it was imported from Asia to Europe by sea. It is a prominent component of lapis lazuli and was used on Asian temples starting in the 6th century. It was one of the most expensive pigments in 16th century Europe, worth twice its weight in gold, and so was used sparingly and when commissions were larger. Ultramarine is currently imitated by a process invented in France in 1826 by Jean Baptiste Guimet, making blue affordable to artists and extending the range of colors on their palettes.
Artificial Ultramarine, French Blue, French Ultramarine, Gmelin's Blue, Guimet's Blue, Permanent Blue, Royal Blue, Synthetic Ultramarine. New Blue describes particular shades of Ultramarine. Armenian Blue and Lazuline Blue are names for genuine Lapiz Ultramarine. Sky Blue is a pale tone of Ultramarine.
iron(III)-oxide, hydrated
Fe2O3 • H2O
Yellow Ochre provides artists with earthtones from cream to brown. It has good hiding power, produces a quick drying paint, and can be safely mixed with other pigments. Its transparency varies widely from opaque shades to more transparent ones, which are valued for their use as glazes. If gypsum is present, Yellow Ochre is not suitable for frescoing. (See Brown Ochre, PY43.) PY42 is made from synthetic iron oxides. PY43 is made from natural iron oxide.
Yellow Ochre has excellent permanence because ochres are some of the most permanent pigments available.
Yellow Ochre is non-toxic unless it contains manganese.
Ochre comes from the Greek word ochros, meaning pale yellow. It was one of the first pigments to be used by human beings, and evidence of its use has been found at 300,000 year old sites in France and the former Czechoslovakia.
Chamois, Iron Yellow, Mars Orange, Mars Yellow, Minette, Ochre, Sil, Yellow Earth, Yellow Oxide. Varieties of Yellow Ochre include Brown Ochre, Flesh Ochre, Roman Ochre, Spruce Ochre, and Transparent Gold Ochre.

Kiss Release Artwork for First Single from 'Monster'
Kiss have given a few more details about their upcoming album, 'Monster.' The first single is 'Hell or Hallelujah' and will be released July 2. The artwork, which features the four band members in full Kiss makeup and a silver version of the Kiss logo, is seen to the left.
During our exclusive interview with Gene Simmons, the bassist praised 'Monster' for being a true collaboration by the band. "We sat together in the same room for the first time in decades and came up with some pretty classic stuff, " he said. "It could be one of our top two or three records ever…You'll hear everybody in the band singing lead…My favorite records are band records where nobody is trying to take over and push their weight around."
In January, Paul Stanley, who produced the record, agreed that the band dynamic is key to the album's success. "Chemistry and camaraderie, that's essential," he said. "That's what made 'Sonic Boom' so great and this album is thunderously better."
The full track listing for 'Monster,' which is expected to be released in October, has yet to be officially announced, but the album's Wikipedia page lists the following 13 songs as having been mentioned at various time by the band.
'Hell or Hallelujah'
'Born to Be a Sinner'
'Out of This World'
'Are You Ready?'
'Wall of Sound'
'It's a Long Way Down'
'Back to the Stone Age'
'Shout Mercy'
'The Devil Is Me'
'All for the Love of Rock & Roll'
'Eat Your Heart Out'
'Right Here Right Now'
On July 20, Kiss and Motley Crue will begin a two-month tour of America. Both groups will play 90-minute sets, with Kiss headlining every show.

Stallworth Injured When Balloon Hits Power Lines [VIDEO]
NFL free agent Donte Stallworth is hospitalized with serious burns after the hot air balloon carrying him and two other people crashed into power lines in South Florida.
Stallworth's agent, Drew Rosenhaus, says the 10-year NFL veteran won't suffer any permanent damage from the accident in Homestead and will be able to continue his career.
Rosenhaus says "He's going to be OK. He has some burns, but he's going to be fine."
Rosenhaus says one of the passengers was Stallworth's girlfriend, but he would not say whether she was hurt.
A Miami-Dade Police spokesman says two passengers were injured and transported to a trauma center. A third passenger in the basket was not injured.
Stallworth was suspended for the 2009 season after a car he was driving struck and killed a pedestrian in South Florida that March. He spent 24 days in jail for a DUI manslaughter conviction.

Vineet Sinha needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 94 designs submitted by 33 freelance designers.
We are looking for a unique logo that gets peoples attention, shows that we are technically sophisticated (we are an MIT-spinoff), that we are willing to do things differently, and that we can show complex things using a clean and simple interface.
Also, we have a number of graphic design projects that we would like to get done over the next few months, and are hoping to meet a great set of designers here for the projects.
Architexa helps programmers make sense of code. We do this by having a very sophisticated engine which makes diagrams from your code. The engine is both intelligent and at the same time is very interactive. Having such diagrams should make programmers faster.
The logo should ideally say that we:
- are smart and technically sophisticated
- are young and are willing to do things differently
- make ugly code look simple and easyGiven the above we are thinking that our companies website will likely have blue, gray, and red (high-tech and active). But this is not fixed.
Possibly what works best is to go to ibm.com (the website not their logo) and wonder what would a younger and more diagrammatic company be like.
Some logos that we like include apple.com, eclipse.org, and atlassian.com.
To get a better idea of what we do (our logo does not have to look like these) some examples of what our diagrams will ideally look like:
- http://kenn-hussey.blogspot.com/200…gence.html
- http://docs.codehaus.org/display/JE…chitecture
- http://blogs.msdn.com/mikewalker/ar…vices.aspx
- http://wiki.eclipse.org/Mylyn_Architecture
- http://www.perseus-os.org/content/p…ecture.htm
- Our tagline is 'know your code'. It will be helpful to see a version of the logo with and a version without the tagline.
- website will be designed around logo
- we will need our logo to be shown as an icon in our product, so there should be a component that can be by itself and would remind the users about us.
- we ideally want to logo to be embroidered onto nice jackets, so
having a version of the logo's "icon" which can be distinguished in a
single color will be a plus.
- logo needs to be in a vector format like AI, but we will also need the 'icon' version to be produced in a 16x16 bitmap.
Find out how a design contest works or learn more about our logo design services.

Swiss powerhouse Fabian Cancellara has already won Paris-Roubaix twice but if he were to do what most people expect of him on Sunday, it'll not only be his third cobblestone but the first one for American bicycle brand Trek – and the company is definitely very eager to add this long-elusive monument to its trophy case.
Trek has supplied Cancellara with the Team Issue Madone 6-Series SSL – essentially the same as what consumers can already purchase but subtly tweaked to better handle the rigorous demands of the pavé. Trek team liaison Ben Coates wouldn't go into specifics but based on what Trek has done in the past (and our own measurements), company engineers have increased the chain stays, fork length, and rake by a few millimeters, lending extra tire clearance all around and more stable footing on the cobbles.
Team bikes also get experimental rear derailleur hangers machined from hardened steel. The stiffer material not only improves shift performance slightly but also makes it more likely that Cancellara's bike will still be in tune after a crash – albeit with a minor weight penalty and the increased likelihood of dropout damage in a really bad wreck.
Fabian Cancellara (Leopard Trek) prefers the mechanical version of Shimano's Dura-Ace group for the cobbled classics.
Speaking of shifting, Cancellara has passed over Shimano's ultra-techy Dura-Ace Di2 electronic group for the cobbled classics despite the benefits of weatherproof adjustments and optional bar top-mounted satellite shifters. Coates says Cancellara simply prefers the mechanical setup for the cobbles (and neither he nor team mechanic Roger Theel would elaborate further) but other Shimano-sponsored mechanics we spoke to suggested that the Di2 system could occasionally get "confused" on especially bumpy sections of pavé if the system is anything but perfectly adjusted – tough to say at this point if that conclusion is real or perceived but we'll bring you more on this situation as we get additional information.
Nevertheless, Cancellara's Dura-Ace setup was suitably hopped up with Shimano's rarely seen Yumeya package, including gold-anodized titanium hardware all around, milled-out and polished aluminum brake pad holders, and lighter-weight YM-SP91 housing plus Teflon-coated cables.
Bontrager's new Team Issue saddle uses a similar shape to the company's old RXL model
Much of the rest of Cancellara's bike is filled out using bits from Trek's in-house component and accessory arm, Bontrager, including the old-style anatomic-bend aluminum Race Lite handlebar, a long 140mm Race XXX Lite molded carbon fiber stem, bar tape, and a traditionally shaped Team Issue saddle recently developed using feedback from the Leopard Trek team.
According to Bontrager soft goods brand manager Tom Kuefler, the new Team Issue perch uses a similar shape to the company's old RXL model but updated with a carbon shell, new titanium rails, and extra-firm padding based on rider requests.
New Bontrager 50mm carbon rims
Interestingly, Cancellara's bike was fitted with Bontrager's ultralight Race XXX Lite shallow-profile carbon tubular wheels when we went to visit the team hotel two days before the race –more commonly seen on alpine stages of grand tours and something veteran mechanic Julien DeVriese never would have allowed at RadioShack, said Coates. However, Coates says that extensive testing by the team on the Roubaix cobbles has demonstrated their surprising toughness – though the massive 27mm-wide FMB Paris-Roubaix tubulars surely help, too.
Cancellara has a second set of Bontrager prototype carbon tubulars at his disposal if he chooses to use them on Sunday: a shallower version of the 50mm-deep prototypes we've previously spotted in the Leopard Trek camp. These share the extra-wide profile (roughly 25mm across), rounded nose, and blunt edges specifically engineered for impact resistance but with a shallower 36mm profile.
Coates wouldn't speculate which wheels Cancellara would use during the race but he did stress that neither of the new designs are simply rebadged rims from Zipp, HED, or anyone else. Instead, he says they're the result of the company's own exclusive in-house research and development including numerous passes over the Roubaix cobbles and lots of high-speed camera work to learn more about what exactly happens to wheels during impacts (something Zipp also said it did during development of its groundbreaking 303).
Friction tape on the bottle cages
Finishing touches include Speedplay Zero Titanium pedals, Enduro's latest XD-15 angular contact ceramic bottom bracket bearings – supposedly the most durable Trek has ever tested in its in-house lab, ceramic or otherwise – a custom anodized and etched AceCo K-Edge chain watcher, customized Trek Bat bottle cages, a Cane Creek headset, and not one, but two computers: a Bontrager Node 1 and an SRM PowerControl 7 (surely only one will make it to the start line).
Total weight as pictured is 7.45kg (16.42lb) – right in line with the lightest Paris-Roubaix bikes we've profiled in the past.
