My experience on how to look amazing inside and out for your next date!
Contrary to popular belief, more makeup doesn't always translate to prettier. Depending on the setting, makeup has to be used appropriately. If the date is taking place during the day, a more toned down and natural look is appropriate. If a nighttime venue is chosen, a smoky eye is more than appropriate. But honestly, whatever makes you feel confident will be the winner.
In this case, less clothes is probably not going to win you the respect that you deserve. Leave a little to the imagination and he will crave you more. That doesn't mean you can't wear a tasteful mini dress, or even show a little bit of cleavage. Keep it classy, or else he will view you as a hookup.
Nothing wrong with being you. But go into the date with no expectations aside from you getting to know the person, and enjoying your time. I know far too many women who expect the guy to fly in on a magic carpet and take them to an extravagant restaurant. Happiness is met when your expectations exceed your reality, but be sure those expectations can be met, or are at least reasonable.

When we go on vacation we always go out for one really special dinner. This year we decided to go to Pacific Rim in downtown Ann Arbor, MI. We'd never been there before, and weren't sure exactly what to expect, but the menu looked good so we decided to give a shot.
The food was incredible. In fact, it was one of the best meals I've ever eaten. Just look at it.
Everything was wonderful. I have no complaints about the food, the service, or the decor. The waitress was very helpful, answering all of our questions about the menu, and always there when we needed something without hovering at our shoulders. Even the bathroom was nice. If you find that sort of thing interesting, here's a picture of the sink. It was cool.

In 2007 Prime Minister Rudd appointed me parliamentary secretary for disabilities.
I thought I'd seen unfairness in workplaces as a union rep.
But nothing prepared me for the second-class deal that Australians with disability and their carers received.
Jenny Macklin, Bruce Bonyhady and I – and thousands of people with disability and their carers - designed and campaigned for the National Disability Insurance Scheme.
I never ran into the Member for Wentworth at the meetings we were campaigning at.
Now, the Turnbull Government is seeking to re-write history and frighten Australians with a disability and their carers.
Labor has a plan that is better and fairer plan for the Budget, which raises $4.5 billion more.
We reject the notion that the only way to protect the NDIS is to raise taxes on working and middle class Australians.
Today, I offer the Government a fairer, better way:
- Don't give millionaires $19 billion tax cut
- Don't give large corporations a $65 billion tax cut
- Remove the concessions worth $37 billion for property investors
And if you want to try and raise taxes on 10 million ordinary people, you'll have to come through us - you'll have to come through Labor.
The last bloke who sat in your chair thought he could – look where it got him.

Check out my latest contribution to One World 365!
Since the beginning of the New World, the East Coast of the United States has been a symbol of immigration and the formation of a new nation, "the land of the free." The East Coast has historical charm, representing the European heritage that founded the United States. The entire coast has exciting and interesting cities and landscapes that tourists should visit. Below I have outlined the top 5 cities to visit throughout the East Coast:
- Boston, Massachusetts: As one of the oldest cities in the United States, Boston is known for several significant events in the American Revolution, such as the Boston Massacre and the Boston Tea Party. Walk the famous Freedom Trail, shop along Newbury Street, and go on a ghost tour! Learning about historical figures during a ghost tour was one of my favorite and most memorable experiences in Boston.
- New York City, New York: The most well-known city in the United States, New York City is where immigration into the United States began. The hustle and bustle, bright lights, and endless activities make NYC known as a city that never sleeps. It is the home of Wall Street, the Statue of Liberty, Freedom Tower, Broadway, and Central Park, among other staple names in tourism.
- Washington, District of Columbia: As the capital of the United States, you will learn about the origins of the separation of power in the government. With tours of government buildings, historical monuments, and Smithsonian museums (free admission!), you will have the opportunity to learn a lot about United States history.
- Charleston, South Carolina: Known as the Holy City and one of the most hospitable places in the United States, Charleston is the epitome of Southern United States charm and historical architecture. Make a point to visit the Charleston City Market to try pralines and purchase baskets and trinkets that bring you back in time. Take a stroll on Rainbow Road and Battery Park. Try fresh seafood and visit the beaches throughout the year (I went to Folly Beach in January!). I wrote about my trip to Charleston, South Carolina in 24 Hours.
- West Palm Beach, Florida: With sunny skies and beautiful weather throughout the year, visit West Palm Beach and the surrounding coastal islands throughout the year. You will find beautiful beaches along the Atlantic Ocean, luxurious golf courses, and great shopping opportunities. For the past several years, I have frequently visited Jensen Beach, Florida, which is relatively close to West Palm Beach. Jensen Beach is known for its annual pineapple festival, delicious seafood, boating, fishing, and watching sea turtles during nesting season.
I hope you have the opportunity to travel to these exciting destinations on the East Coast. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me in the comment section below, on my inspirNational Facebook page or on Twitter @brittanyvb.

text: The Pea Green show was held this past Saturday and as always was a lot of fun and hard work. Now it's time to go back to the treasure hunt and prepare for March. There was a steady flow of people, but the sales were down. I heard some vendors complaining and others saying they did well, but you never really know. As for me, sales were down about 40%. Not good, but I still came out ahead, probably because I didn't take as much and sold a lot of smaller items. No complaints here, just grateful for the opportunity and the sales I did have.

Manchester United legend Sir Alex Ferguson opens up on 2008 regret
SIR ALEX FERGUSON feels bad about leaving Ji-sung Park out of his 2008 Champions League final squad.
The former Manchester United boss took the South Korean to Old Trafford from PSV Eindhoven back in 2005.
And the now-retired midfielder went on to establish himself as one of Ferguson's key men in big fixtures.
Park was not included in Manchester United's matchday 18 for their Moscow showdown with Chelsea though.
"I had to make that horrible decision."Sir Alex Ferguson opens up on his 2008 Champions League final selection dilemma
And Ferguson has admitted the decision to omit the 36-year-old was tough for him.
He told MUTV: "Well, to win the European Cup is fantastic.
"It was a really great bunch of players with a great attitude about them and a good, strong squad.
"My problem in the 2008 final, maybe I even regret it to this day, was I left Ji-sung Park out completely in the final.
"He'd played such a great role and that's the problem when you get to these finals.
"It's a difficult part, always, picking a team for the final in Moscow and I had to make that horrible decision."

Maximus Edge Review
The Maximus Edge Autobot EA is a rejuvenating new take on a trading signal system that does not make crazy claims. Rip-off software application right away tries to encourage you that you will certainly end up being a millionaire in no time at all, however the Maximus Edge EA makes no such claims. We will certainly be excavating deeper into this system and also provide you an extensive evaluation of this trading system.
Just so you know, by signing up through this website, we could make money a commission. If this system is not readily available in your nation, for traders in the US, Canada and also other nations please be mindful that you may get rerouted to one more offer.
There are thousands of hundreds of investors available that being in front of their computer screens for hours on end. You might be one of them, and if you are, you wil know that frequently examining charts to spot trading opportunies is not easy to do. When you actualy know just what you're doing, and also that's.
Suppose you're a new investor, or you're just not that good at assessing market graphes? Well, that's exactly where the Maximus Edge EA (Expert Advisor) enters into play.
We are informed that with the Maximus Edge Autobot they have "adjusted, fine-tuned, as well as enhanced the five most preferred indications to earn them as profitable as feasible for you." Particularly, they are talking about Pivot Points, Bollinger Bands, MACD, Stochastic RSI and also Fibonacci Retracements. These are without an uncertainty a few of the top indications that virtually all traders utilize to study the graphes.
The technique is ways to best incorporate all those signs into a trading approach that beats the market. That is specifically exactly what the Maximus Edge Autobot's job is, it will certainly eliminate you of all of that stress and anxiety, choose the very best signal mix as well as alert you to make sure that you can make the decision. That's extremely important too, since in my opinion you just do not want a system that merely trades without you having any claim regarding how your loan is invested.
The system is called after it's designer, Max or "Maximus" as his colleagues describe him. We are not told much else regarding Max, and also he does not really disclose a great deal about himself either, a minimum of not in the presentation video clip.
Just what I did was to ask around as well as I'm informed that he is a math wizard, yet that he does not want to expose too much regarding his personal life due to internet trolls. I have to state, I can't fault him for that, there are many examples of individuals obtaining their private lives tore apart on the web nowadays.
I want he told us a little bit more regarding himself, but inning accordance with my sources Maximus is virtually a wizard. He created the Maximus Edge Autobot almost on a "dare" by his coworkers because he was continuously defeating them with his exceptionally accurate market forecasts.
How Does The Maximus Edge EA Work?
I would certainly love to listen to exactly how this system works, and also I'm sure you would certainly too, yet we're simply not considered that information. It additionally makes sense, since if you obtained all the precise details of exactly how the system comes up with winning signals, you can simply duplicate the methodology as well as re-sell it.
We do recognize that it functions by combining Bollinger Bands, Pivot Points, Stochastic RSI, MACD and also Fibonacci Retracements, which means that it utilizes reputable signs and also not some made-up crap. In my publication, that's really good information as well as offers me a lot of self-confidence in this system.
Maximus indicators
Quick and also easy, yes, it's free, yet I have no idea for for how long. If a trading system is free, one of the very first inquiries I always obtain asked is. And also while free systems are not constantly necessarily the best, in this situation I feel great after doing some background research study on this system that it will provide on its assurances.
While I have not yet evaluated out this system for myself, I've requested for unique access to check the system for myself over the following week. I have to request unique accessibility, since I'm in the US and also generally US investors are not allowed to register. When you have a web site like mine that has close to 200 testimonials about trading systems, I've always been able to bent some arms to obtain a sneak peek.
From what I've spoken with 3 beta testers is that they were really impressed with the results they have actually been obtaining.
The system claims that it was produced with "the intent to create high earnings-- up to 84% winning rates" which is really remarkable! , if it continues to carry out also close to that you will absolutely make loan with this system.
Pros And Cons
The only thing I don't like regarding this system is that I desire we had actually gotten a little bit extra personal information regarding Max. We do not get more info actually know why he created the system, besides exactly what I had the ability to collect by doing some inquiries.
Exactly what I actually do like concerning this system, and also one of the major factors I didn't just dismiss it as a scam, was the truth that Max never ever declares that you will certainly come to be a millionaire over night. That's simply a gold regulation of trading and also very sound advice!
The other thing that I really liked about the Maximus Edge Autobot is that it uses the same indicators that I use every time I analyze the markets. The only extra tool I use is Elliot Wave analysis, but that's a whole different discussion.
The good news is that due to the overhaul in the binary sector, primarily every one of the negative brokers have actually shut store. This is something that I've wished would certainly take place as well as it's excellent to see that the broker market is obtaining tidied up as well as controlled correctly. At this moment it is too early for me to comment on exactly which individual brokers are supporting this system, yet I will certainly report back with an upgrade when I have even more info.
The Maximus Edge EA Autobot hits all the best notes for me. There are no crazy claims of immediately becoming a millionaire, the creator of the software is not telling us lies about being a multi-millionaire or some other silly tale.
The system makes use of indications that are popular which have actually been verified to persuade time, there are no pressure strategies and no fake badges or anything like that on their site.
Overall I believe this system deserves experimenting with, and also if you concur, you could wish to not wait as well lengthy to earn your relocation since good systems are often removed from the market prior to they obtain overloaded with sign-ups.
The Maximus Edge Autobot EA is a rejuvenating brand-new take on a trading signal system that does not make crazy claims. We will be digging further right into this system and also provide you an extensive review of this trading system. One of the first inquiries I constantly obtain asked is if a trading system is complimentary. As well as while totally free systems are not always necessarily the best, in this instance I really feel positive after doing some history research on this system that it will deliver on its assurances.
While I have actually not yet checked out this system for myself, I've asked for special access to test the system for myself over the following week.

Imikotoba (taboo words)
August 24, 2011
Imikotoba (忌み言葉), or taboo words, are words that are avoided because they are believed to bring bad luck. The term can also mean the euphemism or replacement that is used instead of them (either an alternate pronunciation or a substitution word).
Some of these taboos are related to specific moments and rituals, while others are spread among the general population and condition the daily use of the language.
Those of you who understand some Japanese know how there are two series of numbers, one being based on Chinese reading or on-yomi (ichi, ni, san…) and the other on Japanese reading or kun-yomi (hitotsu, futatsu, mittsu…). Now, the Chinese reading for "4" is shi, but Japanese people tend to avoid this pronunciation and substitute it with the kun-yomi for "4" which is yon; this use, so common to be the rule with many counters, is due to the fact that shi is also the pronunciation of the character 死, which means "death".
Another example: the most common word for pear is nashi 梨. Nashi, however, is also the pronunciation of 無し, which means "none." To avoid the hazards of this association, the word ari-no-mi / 有りの実 (lit. "the fruit of abundance") can also be used to refer to a pear.
Other substitutions are atarime (for dried squid, surume) and etekō (for monkey, saru, whose homophone means "depart" and is used as a euphemism for death).
Other words are to be avoided especially to preserve the purity of Shinto rituals. The Engi Shiki lists taboo words associated with the saigū (Chief Priestess) of the Grand Shrine of Ise and their replacements:
1. Inner seven (related to Buddhism)
buddha(s): nakago ("middle child," i.e. seated in the center of the worship hall)
sutra: somekami ("dyed paper;" originally printed on yellow paper)
pagoda: araraki (Japanese pronunciation of the Chinese-based word, also pronounced araragi)
temple: kawarafuki ("tiled," as in "tiled roof," also pronounced kawarabuki)
monk: kaminaka ("long-haired," also pronounced kaminaga)
nun: mekaminaka ("female long-haired")
vegetarian food/abstinence: katashiki ("one tray").
2. Outer seven (related to non-Buddhist words)
death: naoru (to recover)
illness: yasumi (to rest)
weeping: shiotare ("shedding salt")
blood: ase (sweat)
to strike: atsu (caress)
meat: kusahira (vegetables and mushrooms)
grave: tsuchikure (clod of earth).
3. Others
Buddhist hall: koritaki ("incense burning")
lay Buddhist (ubasoku): tsunohasu ("notch of arrow," also pronounced tsunohazu).
Other taboos are still avoided by ordinary people in special events such as weddings and funerals.
For example, if you have to give a speech at a weddings you should carefully avoid words such as hanareru (離れる, to separate), kiru (切る, to cut) or wakareru (別れる, to split) because they can be seen as references to divorce; for the same reason, one should not use words that repeat the same sound, such as tabitabi (たびたび, frequently) or iroiro (色々, various).
At funerals, one cannot use words that infer "something sad will happen again", "your sould cannot rest in peace" or, again, repeated sounds. Some examples are tsuzuku (続く, to continue), ukabarenai (浮ばれない, your soul cannot rest), kaesugaesu (返す返す, repeatedly).
Also you cannot use words such as nagareru (流れる, to wash away) or kieru (消える, to disappear) when congratulating a pregnant woman, because they might sound like references to miscarriage.
There are taboo words for school tests as well: during the entrance exams season, one should avoid words that make one think to failure, such as chiru (散る, to disperse), suberu (滑る to slip over), ochiru (落ちる, to fall).
Capitals of Japan – 6 – Tōkyō – Part 3
August 23, 2011
In 1868, with the Meiji restoration, Edo was made the new imperial capital and changed its name to Tōkyō (東京), menaning "Capital of the East".
On July 17, Emperor Meiji issued the Edict Renaming Edo to Tōkyō (江戸ヲ稱シテ東京ト爲スノ詔書 Edo o shōshite Tōkyō to nasu no shōsho).
In 1869, the Emperor himself moved to Tōkyō and made Edo Castle the new Imperial Palace.
On May 1, 1889, Tōkyō City (東京市 Tōkyō-shi) was constituted as a separate municipality, and lasted until July 1, 1943, when it was merged with its prefecture of Tōkyō-fu (東京府), becoming part of the newly formed Tōkyō Metropolis (東京都 Tōkyō-to).
Even though Tōkyō is known by the whole world as the capital of Japan, and it is surely its capital de facto, being the seat both of the Emperor and of the Governmen, its status as a capital de iure is still controversial.
Some state that Tōkyō became the capital when the Tōkyō prefecture was established in 1868, others that it occurred when Edo Castle was made an Imperial seat. On the other hand, while there was an imperial edict transferring the capital to Heian, there have been no document declaring the move from Kyōto to Tōkyō, therefore some people claim that Kyōto is still the capital of Japan, or that Tōkyō and Kyōto are both capitals simultaneously.
However, since after WWII the sovreignty was transferred to the Emperor to the people by the new Constitution, the general consensus agrees that the Tōkyō is the capital since it is the seat of the Diet.
While no laws have designated Tōkyō as the Japanese capital, many laws have defined a "capital area" (首都圏 shutoken) that incorporates Tōkyō .
Article 2 of the Capital Area Consolidation Law (首都圏整備法) of 1956 states that "In this Act, the term 'capital area' shall denote a broad region comprising both the territory of Tōkyō Metropolis as well as outlying regions designated by cabinet order." This clearly implies that the government has designated Tōkyō as the capital of Japan (although it is not explicitly stated, and the definition of the "capital area" is restricted to the terms of that specific law).
In 1941, the Ministry of Education published a book called "History of the Restoration", that referred to Tōkyō as capital" (東京奠都 Tōkyō-tento) without talking about "moving the capital to Tōkyō" (東京遷都 Tōkyō-sento). A contemporary history textbook states that the Meiji government "moved the capital (shuto) from Kyōto to Tōkyō" without using the sento term.
Capitals of Japan – 6 – Tōkyō – Part 2
August 6, 2011
In 1600 Tokugawa Ieyasu, having seized the power, established his capital in Edo.
He had already occupied the castle city in 1590, during his war against the Hōjō, when, during the Siege of Odawara, Hideyoshi offered Ieyasu the eight Kantō provinces which they were about to take from the Hōjō in return for the five provinces that Ieyasu currently controlled (including Ieyasu's home province of Mikawa). Ieyasu accepted this proposal. He gave up control of his five provinces (Mikawa, Tōtōmi, Suruga, Shinano, and Kai) and moved to the Kantō region with all his troops and vassals. He himself occupied the castle town of Edo.
So after the battle of Sekigahara on October 21, 1600, and then when Ieyasu was officially appointed as a new shogun on March 24, 1603, Edo became the real centre of power, even though the official capital was still the seat of the emperor in Kyōto until the Meiji restoration.
The city was arranged arount the castle; the area immediately surrounding it was known as the "Yamanote" and consisted largely of daimyō mansions; their families lived in Edo year-round. According to the sankin kōtai system (参勤交代 lit. "alternate attendance"), daimyō families had to stay in Edo as hostages, while the daimyō himself had to move periodically between Edo and his domains ( (藩 han), typically spending an alternate year in each place.
This is a way for the shogunate to control the vassals, similar to the way Louis XIV of France forced his aristocracy to move to Versailles; also the expenditures to move from one place to the other and to maintain two luxury residences places financial strains on the daimyō, so that they were not able to afford wars.
While Kyōto was dominated by the court aristocracy, that character of Edo was made by the noble warrior class.
Other areas further from the center were the domains chōnin (町人, literally "townsfolk" ).
1844-1848 – Perry-Castañeda Map Collection – UT Library Online lib.utexas.edu"]The area known as Shitamachi, to the northeast of the castle, was a key centerof urban culture, with the ancient Buddhist temple of Sensō-ji, that still stands in Asakusa, marking the center of the "downtown" (literal translation of "Shitamachi"). Some of the shops in the streets before the temple have been carried on continuously in the same location since the Edo period.
The northeastern corner of the city, regarded as a dangerous direction in traditional onmyōdō (cosmology/geomancy), was guarded from evil spirits by a series of temples, including Sensō-ji and Kan'ei-ji.
Just beyond these laid the districts of the eta or outcastes, who engaged in activities that were considered impure, and were thus separated from the main sections of commoner residences.
The the Great River (大川), now called Sumida-Gawa, ran along the eastern edge of the city.
The Edo Bridge (江戸橋, Edo-bashi), also known as Nihonbashi, marked the center of the city's commercial center, an area also known as Kuramae (蔵前, "in front of the storehouses"). Its development is largely credited to the Mitsui family, one of the most powerful families of merchants and industrialists in Japan, still active nowadays.
The Nihonbashi was the eastern terminus of the Nakasendō and the Tōkaidō, roads that ran between Edo and Kyōto.
Near the Nihobashi, there were also the famous Yoshiwara district, Edo's red-light district – but we might call it "red line", since this is the translation of the "Akasen" (赤線), the Japanse term to indicate it. It was created in 1617, after Tokugawa Hidetada ordered to restrict prostitution, that was widespread in the main cities od Japan, to designated city districts.
In 1656, due to the need for space as the city grew, the government decided to relocate Yoshiwara, and plans were made to move the district to its present location north of Asakusa. After it burned down in the Meireki fire of 1657, it was rebuilt in the new location. The new district was called Shin-Yoshiwara ("new Yoshiwara"), while the old one was known as Moto-Yoshiwara ("previous/original Yoshiwara").

Stanford quarterback Keller Chryst announced on Sunday that he plans to transfer for his final season of eligibility.
The Palo Alto High product began last season as the Cardinals' starting quarterback before being replaced midway through the year by redshirt freshman K.J. Costello.
Chryst announced his decision to leave via Twitter, posting "After four seasons at Stanford, I have decided to transfer for my 5th year of eligibility when I graduate in June. Thank you to Stanford University, the Stanford Football program, and especially my teammates for the experiences here. Looking forward to what the future holds!"
He will be immediately eligible as a graduate transfer.
Chryst played in 23 games in three seasons at Stanford, replacing Ryan Burns as the starter at mid-season in 2016. He has completed 55.2 percent of his passes for 1,901 yards, 19 touchdowns and six interceptions.

|Low-Calorie Fish Tacos~ Perfect for a weeknight meal and full of flavor.
Recipe adapted from the Biggest Looser ranch.
My Baja Fish Taco recipe marinates the fish with savory spices and lime juice. If you purchase pre-shredded cabbage and cheese, assembly is super fast. Each taco is only 140 calories! You'll enjoy making this simple recipe and feel good about eating healthy too.
I've had the fortunate opportunity to visit Cabo San Lucas, a city on the southern tip of Baja California in Mexico, while cruising down the Mexican coast. Sitting down at a table on the sandy beach, I ordered a plate of fish tacos. As I was relaxing under the umbrella, waiting for my food, some obnoxious announcer with a microphone from the bar next door ordered us all to move our tables off the beach immediately!
He wanted a 'runway' for his contestants to race into the surf and see who could exchange their swimwear the fastest (hiding their naked parts in the water). Some of my friends were pretty upset and resisted moving; after all, we were there first! Well, they ended up getting into a yelling match with the announcer and before our food was ready we left the restaurant. (A tidbit of wisdom: never get into an argument with someone holding a live microphone.) Such a bummer, I was so looking forward to my fish tacos! I honestly wouldn't have minded moving off the beach, but I can understand why the others in my group were ticked off.
Long after returning home, I came across a recipe for fish taco's that sounded delicious and was low in calories. Baja Fish Tacos is my adaptation to a recipe originally made at the Biggest Looser ranch. The crazy story of what happened that afternoon long ago in Cabo gave rise to the name for this recipe. At the ranch they use whole grain tortillas but I prefer the traditional crunchy taco shell, which admittedly is the less healthy option (about the same in calories but higher in fat). However, these tacos are delicious and still on the healthy side with 140 calories per taco!
Yields 8
Baja Fish Tacos
You will enjoy these Baja Fish Tacos anytime you crave the flavors of Mexico. Light on calories, fresh and fast for a weeknight meal or entertaining.
30 minPrep Time
12 minCook Time
42 minTotal Time
- 1 pound of orange roughy or other boneless, skinless fish fillet
- 3 tablespoons lime juice
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 8 crunchy taco shells or whole grain tortillas
- 1/2 avocado, diced and lightly mashed
- 1/2 cup tomato salsa
- 1/3 cup shredded low-fat Mexican cheese blend
- 4 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 and 1/2 cups finely shredded cabbage
- Hot sauce (optional)
- Place fish in a single layer in a dish. Sprinkle with lime juice, paprika, salt, pepper and chili powder. Cover and refrigerate for 20-30 minutes to marinate the fish.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Place a large piece of aluminum foil on a rimmed baking sheet. Spray the foil with cooking spray. Place the fish on the foil in a single layer. Bend the edges of the foil up just a bit to create a shallow rim around the fish (to prevent fish juices from leaking out). Bake fish for 10 to 15 minutes or until internal temp reaches 145 degrees.
- Divide the fish evenly between the 8 tacos. Divide the avocado, salsa, cilantro, cabbage and hot sauce also between each taco. Serve.

Welcome to the second installment of our Introduction to Karting series. Hopefully the first piece piqued your interest with tales of tiny machines pulling 3 g in the corners then hitting 60 in under three seconds on their way up to over 140 MPH. (Well over, as it turns out; one commenter indicated he hit an indicated 156 this season.) That kind of performance is unequaled outside of top-level formula motorsport, yet is available to anyone with some disposable income and a passion for going quick.
However, karting isn't for everyone so suitably endowed. The physical demands placed on a kart racer are hard to comprehend until you're in a fast turn, holding your breath because you can't inhale, feeling like your head is going to fly off and land somewhere in the pits. Chances are it won't, but whether or not you can withstand that while maintaining a good racing line and keeping an eye on a swarm of opponents is an important thing to find out before breaking out the charge card. The best way is, of course, to try it, and given the big up-front cost to buy a kart, a rental is the way to go.
To get our first real experience we signed up for an afternoon's racing school. We walked the track, worked with multiple instructors, got a lot of advice, had an impromptu race, and stuck it out for way more seat time than was probably advisable for a newbie. How'd we do? Read on to find out, and see some videos of our on (and, occasionally, off) track antics.

John Yoo, in his interview with the DOJ's Office of Professional Responsibility, asserted that the president had the authority to order the massacre of a village. That's right – a former Deputy Assistant Attorney General, in the Office of Legal Counsel lawyer says the president can order a My Lai or Lidice-type massacre.
"What about ordering a village of resistants to be massacred? ... Is that a power that the president could legally—"
"Yeah," Yoo replied, according to a partial transcript included in the report. "Although, let me say this: So, certainly, that would fall within the commander-in-chief's power over tactical decisions"
"To order a village of civilians to be [exterminated]?" the OPR investigator asked again.
"Sure," said Yoo.
This should not come as a shock. As previously noted, the Berkley law professor has maintained the president could order that the testicles of a child can be crushed:
Cassel: If the President deems that he's got to torture somebody, including by crushing the testicles of the person's child, there is no law that can stop him?
Yoo: No treaty.
Cassel: Also no law by Congress. That is what you wrote in the August 2002 memo.
Yoo: I think it depends on why the President thinks he needs to do that.

The official trailer for the $32 million dollar production of "Sicario" was released today. This looks exciting as it stars Emily Blunt, Josh Brolin, and Benicio Del Toro.

"Sicario" Logline: In Mexico, Sicario means hitman. In the lawless border area stretching between the U.S. and Mexico, an idealistic FBI agent is enlisted by an elite government task force official to aid in the escalating war against drugs. Led by an enigmatic consultant with a questionable past, the team sets out on a clandestine journey forcing Kate to question everything that she believes in order to survive.
"Sicario" Release Date: September 15, 2015

A man's sexual health is not only about sex but also about mental health and that is why when erectile dysfunction hits it could be a depressing time in a man's life. The best thing is that, this can be treated when you buy Cialis online. Canadian Pharmacy Saying that an erectile dysfunction drug is the best is very common once you research certain drugs but you will find differences with Cialis that make it actually the one on top of the mountain. Below are some great reasons why Cialis is the best one to help remedy ED for the 35% of men who have it. Cialis
A Summary About ED
You can buy Cialis online but you need to first know the reason you are getting it. Erectile dysfunction is a disorder which is brought on due to hardening of arteries. This is often a reaction to deposits in the layers of the arteries in the peni which means that the circulation of blood is confined and therefore inhibits an erection. The development and accessibility to several ED remedies in the market makes the situation treatable.
The safety of the medicine should first be analyzed before intake. To buy Cialis online or personally could require similar considerations. Cialis is among the few erectile dysfunction drugs which are basically approved by the Food and Drug Administration in the United States and they have found that the medicine is safe to use and effective. This type of certification is not provided to just any medication. Tests and trials must be run and once the tests were done on Cialis, the adverse reactions were minimal.
Cialis' Performance
Apart from understanding where to buy Cialis online, the effectiveness should also be checked. Cialis is the ideal medication because not only is it … Read More ...

A Frozen "Let It Go" Cover I Never Expected to See
This Frozen mania is certainly not going anywhere, is it? It's taken over baby names, causing marriages to break up, and, of course, the many, many, many cover songs. At this point, I've seen so many that it's gotten a little wearisome, but today one hit the Internet that I did not expect to see: Pearl Jam.
Not a joke—this is real life: The band covered it at a stadium show in Italy over the weekend. Check it out:

Blogging, Travel and photography are what kept me alive I can say. So many places to visit, so many lessons from which I learnt to be my better self amidst my core frustration of not having a job.I yelled and cried almost everyday.Today, I finally hold the work permit and I am all eager to grab a job.All my day goes in applying for a job or preparing for an interview. When I hit my bed dog tired, my mobile beeps with the posts my fellow bloggers publish. I can just not resist reading them, any time of the day. I read them while I travel or during a break I take from my preparations. But, I have to admit that I am really not able to write one. I am not able to think beyond my present circumstance. Maybe when I get what I want after this long time I am stuck to it and not able to think anything beyond.Having begun as a passionate blogger, I miss writing very deeply. I am not taking a break here, but slowing down. I hate the feeling of staying away from my blog or not regularly reading posts from my wonderful friends. But, for now my job search has gained a priority.But I promise to keep visiting whenever possible.
Enough explained and confessed, here I share the third quote in the Quote challenge. This quote is what kept my endurance intact(at least most of the times) in my recent days.It makes me stronger every time I read these lines.It is simply the apt one to keep me boosted when I drain of zeal or confidence, drowning in self-doubt.
1. Post one of your favorite quotes (different quote on each day) on three consecutive days. The quote can be from your favorite book, author, or your own.
2. Nominate 3 bloggers to challenge them.
3. Thank the blogger, who nominated you

- The Classic Work on How to Achieve Happiness
- Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
- Personal Development/Psychology
- Amazon.co.uk
Considering that this book is about concentrating, I really struggled to finish it. The only book in recent years that I've stopped reading half way through and read another book.
Flow is the name given to a specific state of mind. When you are concentrating on a task, that is stimulating and challenging and you feel that time is just flying by.
Before reading the book I did know what this was. I had myself experienced it in the past, either at work, or more recently in the evening when I've been working on my own projects. I did think that this could only happen if your mind was completely absorbed and engrossed with the task at hand. I didn't realise that you could experience flow doing a job that some would consider mundane, like working on a factory assembly line.
It's certainly an interesting subject but the book was a little too long for me. And I defy anyone to read all the notes in the back.

Tropika & Cocos Club
|Cocos Club during the day
"I hope to be back in three months time...love it, yeah it's awesome; the fact that it's an island y'know and there's nothing to do except the marine life."
|Steven with his doof doof' shirt. Kelly, pictured
in the background playing pool, was on my laptop and wrote
"Kelly shooting awesome pool in the background,
I believe she is a legend on Island." I'm in no position to disagree.
Steven was born on Christmas Island and raised there for 18 years. He always has seen his calling in the airline industry, especially as cabin crew. So he began working his way up, literally. From Christmas Island as a travel consultant to his current position as a Virgin cabin supervisor. This position, as I understand it, means he's in charge of the flight stewards:
|Helping the concerned family
Christmas will always be home and Cocos is pretty much like being at home...I've been flying up here for 3 and a half years. Crew love coming up here due to the lifestyle. Those [crew] who come up here are more community oriented--we don't need to be within network range.The next day I met Steven at "Tropika" the local evening restaurant. He was speaking fluent Malay with a Cocos Malay worker Vivian. He downplayed his language abilities, but the next day when one of the elderly Home Island residents was flying to Perth for a serious operation, he was there to help the family by drawing on his Malay.
Kevin and Paul
|Kevin and Paul
This is his second time on Island. He's basically here for the week. Playing golf (Scrubbers) is a once in a lifetime thing, he says it is a once in lifetime. "love the place, love the water, love the marine environment; the fishing, spearfishing, four-wheel driving that sort of thing". It's also the community life that he likes. "When you come to these isolated areas, community has a major role. You meet someone you say hello. You get in the smaller townships there's total different".
Rosemary and Ben
|Rosemary and Ben
"Simple pleasures; you made fun out of nothing. We used to have dinner parties on the runway and the siren went off (for an approaching plane) we would pick up the table and run to the side. There was met [meteorological] bureau and they had flat roof so we had dinner party on that". I asked her what made her bring her son, Ben with her: " I just wanted to my son back it was really important. Because Ben had seen list of photos of DI [Direction Island], and him as a smiley happy baby. He was 21/2 when we left and Emma [my daughter] was almost 5. This is twenty hears later." Rosemary explained that Ben has been really impressed by the experience: "he's just saying I had no idea of how good it is. On Direction Island today I was a bit frightened because The Rip [a famous snorkeling spot] was really was fast but we saw sharks and reef fish; so you know his mother thing. I'm so lucky my 22 year old wants to travel with me. I'm in Busselton teaching and he's doing an electrical apprenticeship in Perth without his mother."

Part 6 out of 6
I am willing to make him restitution. If, in a single instance,
in the course of my command, I have done that which I cannot fully justify,
justice requires that I should suffer for it."
So proud was his integrity, so pure and transparent was
his happy consciousness of a mind fixed only on good,
and regulated by the sternest rules of virtue, and the nicest
instincts of gentleness and love! The Bill passed into a law,
but the name of Marion, omitted at his requisition, is nowhere present,
as showing that he needed other security than that which is afforded
to the meanest citizen under the keenest scrutiny of justice.
Marion did not confine his objections to the continued operation
of the Confiscation Act, to the single instance which we have given.
We have reason to believe that his labors to remedy its hardships,
and restrain its severities, were uniform and unremitting.
There is no doubt that he favored the original bill.
He considered it a war measure, and necessary to the prosecution of the war.
The propriety of the distinction which he made just after the war was over,
obvious enough to us now, was not so evident at a season
when the victors were looking after the division of the spoils. The subject
became one of considerable excitement, and we may say in this place,
that, after time had mollified the popular feeling in some degree,
the State admitted the greater number of the offenders to mercy
and restored their estates. But there is reason to believe
that the humane sentiments which Marion taught, were not universal,
and met with most violent opposition. His feelings on the subject
were not only declared with frankness, but with warmth and energy.
Dining at the table of Governor Matthews, while the strife was highest,
he was called upon by his Excellency for a toast. Lifting his glass,
with a smile, he promptly gave the following, -- "Gentlemen,
here's damnation to the Confiscation Act."
Though, in the language of Moultrie, "born a soldier", and yielding
so many of his youthful and maturer years to the habits of the camp and field,
there was nothing of a harsh or imperious nature in his temper or his manner.
The deportment of the mere soldier seems to have been his aversion.
He preferred the modest and forbearing carriage which is supposed to belong
more distinctly to civil than to military life. No novelty of situation,
no provocation of circumstance, nothing in the shape of annoyance or disaster,
was suffered so to ruffle his mood as to make him heedless or indifferent
to the claims or sensibilities of others. He never conceived
that any of his virtues gave him a right to trespass upon
the proprieties of social or public life. An anecdote is related of him
which illustrates the veneration which he entertained
for the regulations of society and law. It appears that,
when the war was over, one of his closest intimates and nearest friends --
one whom he had trusted long, and who had shared with him
in all his campaigns, stood within the perils of the law
for some offence of which the facts have not been preserved.
Presuming upon his well-known services, and the favor in which he was held
by the public, he refused to submit to the ordinary legal process,
and bade defiance to the sheriff. While maintaining this position,
Marion sought him out. He used no argument to convince the offender
of his error, for that, he felt assured, the other sufficiently knew.
But he addressed him in a style, and with words, which conveyed much more
than any ordinary argument. "Deliver yourself," said he,
"into the hands of justice -- submit to the process of the sheriff,
and my heart and hand are yours as before; -- resist, -- refuse, --
and we are separated for ever." It need not be said
that under such an exhortation the refractory spirit was subdued.
How much to be regretted it is that so few anecdotes have been preserved
of his character, illustrating a life which, according to all testimony,
was consistent throughout in a just appreciation of all that was pure,
virtuous and becoming, in the character of the individual man.
Early in the year 1783, the following resolutions passed
in the Senate of South Carolina, Marion, who was a member,
not being present at the time:
Senate, South Carolina, February 26, 1783.
"RESOLVED, nem. con., That the thanks of this House be given
to Brigadier General Marion, in his place, as a member of this House,
for his eminent and conspicuous services to his country.
"RESOLVED, nem. con., That a gold medal be given to
Brigadier General Marion, as a mark of public approbation
for his great, glorious, and meritorious conduct."
Two days after, Marion being in his place in the Senate,
the President took occasion to convey to him the sense of these resolutions,
in a neat and highly laudatory speech. He said, among other things --
"When I consider the occasion which calls me to address you,
I am filled with inexpressible pleasure; but when I reflect on the difficulty
of doing justice to your distinguished merit, I feel my own inefficiency.
What sentiments or words shall I make use of equal to the task!
I scarce dare trust my own, especially after what has been said
by several honorable persons on this floor, respecting your great,
your glorious, and meritorious conduct; and I most earnestly wish,
for my own sake, for yours, Sir, and for the honor of this House,
that I could avail myself of their eloquence. . . . Your conduct merits
the applause of your countrymen -- your courage, your vigilance,
and your abilities have exceeded their most sanguine expectations;
and have answered all their hopes. Whilst the virtue of gratitude
shall form a part of our national character, your important services
to this country can never be forgotten," &c.
To this Marion replied with simple brevity:
"MR. PRESIDENT: The approbation which this House have given
of my conduct, in the execution of my duty, gives me
very pleasing and heartfelt satisfaction. The honor which
they have conferred on me this day, by their thanks, will be remembered
with gratitude. I shall always be ready to exert my abilities
for the good of the state and the liberties of her inhabitants.
I thank you, Sir, for the polite manner in which you have conveyed to me
the thanks of the Senate."
Whether the medal was really given, or only voted, is a fact
that we have no means of ascertaining. It is to be feared that
the action of the Senate went no farther than the resolution and the speech.
It probably remains a reproach against the republic, in this,
as in numerous other instances, that, knowing what gratitude required,
we would yet forego the satisfaction of the debt. Cheaply, at best,
was our debt to Marion satisfied, with a gold medal, or the vote of one,
while Greene received ten thousand guineas and a plantation. We quarrel not
with the appropriation to Greene, but did Marion deserve less from Carolina?
Every page of her history answers "No!"
By the Legislative session of 1784, Fort Johnson, in the harbor of Charleston,
was fitted up and garrisoned by the State. In the unstable
condition of things, so immediately after the war, some such fortress
might well be deemed essential to the security of the port. Marion was
appointed Commandant of the Fort, with an annual salary of 500 Pounds.
The office was in all probability made for him. His necessities were known,
and its salary was intended to compensate him for his losses during the war.
But the duties of the office were nominal. Even its possible uses
soon ceased to be apparent; and, with a daily increasing sense of security,
the people murmured at an appropriation which they considered
unnecessarily burdensome. The common mind could not well perceive
that the salary was not so much yielded for what was expected of the office,
as for what had already been performed. It was not given for present,
but for past services. It was the payment of a debt incurred,
not a simple appropriation for the liquidation of one growing out of
current performances. Legislative reformers waged constant war against it,
and it was finally cut down to five hundred dollars. A smile of fortune, --
one of the fairest perhaps, that had ever shone on our hero, --
just then relieved him from the mortifying necessity of holding a sinecure
which his fellow citizens pronounced an encumbrance. It had been observed
by his friends that there was a lady of good family and considerable wealth,
who appeared to take a more than ordinary interest in hearing of his exploits.
Modest and reserved himself, Marion was not conscious of
the favorable impression which he had made upon this lady.
It was left for others to discover the state of her affections.
They remarked the delight with which, like
"The gentle lady wedded to the Moor,"
she listened to the tale of his achievements, his
"Hair-breadth 'scapes in th' imminent deadly breach,
Of being taken by the insolent foe." --
and they augured favorably of the success of any desire which he might express
to make her the sharer in his future fortunes. On this hint he spake.
Miss Mary Videau, like himself, came of the good old Huguenot stock,
the virtues of which formed our theme in the opening chapter
of this narrative. He proposed to her and was accepted.
Neither of them was young. It was not in the heyday of passion
that they loved. The tie that bound them sprang from an affection
growing out of a just appreciation of their mutual merits. She is reported
to have somewhat resembled him as well in countenance as character.
She certainly shared warmly in his interests and feelings. She readily
conformed to his habits no less than his wishes -- partook of his amusements,
shared his journeys -- which were frequent -- and still, in his absence,
could listen with as keen a zest to his praises, as before their marriage.
During the summer months, it was his almost yearly custom
to retire to the mountains of the interior. She was always his companion.
On such occasions, he was guilty of a piece of military ostentation
of which nobody could have accused him while a military man.
He had preserved carefully, as memorials of an eventful history,
his marquee, camp bed, and cooking utensils, just as he had done
while in the Brigade, during the last twelve months of his military life.
These were carefully taken with him; and, with his faithful servant Oscar,
and his two sumpter mules, were still the companions of his wanderings.
They were coupled no doubt with many associations as interesting to his heart
as they were trying to his experience. They were, perhaps, doubly precious,
as they constituted the sum total of all that he had gathered --
besides an honorable fame -- from his various campaignings.
The marriage of Marion, like that of Washington, was without fruits.
This may have baffled some hopes, and in some degree qualified his happiness,
but did not impair his virtues. He adopted the son of a relative,
to whom he gave his own name, in the hope of perpetuating it in the family,
but even this desire has been defeated, since the heir thus chosen,
though blessed with numerous children, was never so fortunate as to own a son.
In the decline of life, in the modest condition of the farmer, Marion seems
to have lived among his neighbors, very much as the ancient patriarch,
surrounded by his flock. He was honored and beloved by all.
His dwelling was the abode of content and cheerful hospitality.
Its doors were always open; and the chronicler records
that it had many chambers. Here the stranger found a ready welcome,
and his neighbors a friendly counsellor, to the last.
His active habits were scarcely lessened in the latter years of life.
His agricultural interests were managed judiciously, and his property
underwent annual increase. Nor did his domestic interests and declining years
prevent him from serving the public still. He still held a commission
in the militia, and continued to represent the parish of St. John's,
in the Senate of the State. In May, 1790, we find him sitting
as a member of the Convention for forming the State Constitution;
but from this period he withdrew from public life, and, in 1794,
after the reorganization of the State militia, he resigned his commission
in that service to which he had done so much honor. On this occasion
he was addressed by an assembly of the citizens of Georgetown,
through a special committee of four, in the following language.*
* The committee consisted of Messrs. William D. James, Robert Brownfield,
Thomas Mitchell, and Joseph Blythe.
"CITIZEN GENERAL -- At the present juncture, when the necessity
of public affairs requires the military of this State to be organized anew,
to repel the attacks of an enemy from whatever quarter they may be forced
upon us; we, the citizens of the district of Georgetown, finding you
no longer at our head, have agreed to convey to you our grateful sentiments
for your former numerous services. In the decline of life,
when the merits of the veteran are too often forgotten, we wish to remind you
that yours are still fresh in the remembrance of your fellow citizens.
Could it be possible for men who have served and fought under you,
to be now forgetful of that General, by whose prudent conduct
their lives have been saved and their families preserved from being plundered
by a rapacious enemy? We mean not to flatter you. At this time it is
impossible to suspect it. Our present language is the language of freemen,
expressing only sentiments of gratitude. Your achievements may not have
sufficiently swelled the historic page. They were performed by those
who could better wield the sword than the pen -- by men whose constant dangers
precluded them from the leisure, and whose necessities deprived them
of the common implements of writing. But this is of little moment.
They remain recorded in such indelible characters upon our minds,
that neither change of circumstances, nor length of time, can efface them.
Taught by us, our children shall hereafter point out the places,
and say, `HERE, General Marion, posted to advantage,
made a glorious stand in defence of the liberties of his country --
THERE, on disadvantageous ground, retreated to save the lives
of his fellow citizens.' What could be more glorious for the General,
commanding freemen, than thus to fight, and thus to save
the lives of his fellow soldiers? Continue, General, in peace,
to till those acres which you once wrested from the hands of an enemy.
Continue to enjoy dignity accompanied with ease, and to lengthen out your days
blessed with the consciousness of conduct unaccused of rapine or oppression,
and of actions ever directed by the purest patriotism."
The artless language of this address was grateful to the venerable patriot.
In its truth and simplicity lay its force and eloquence. It had truly
embodied in a single sentence the noble points of his career and character.
He lived in the delightful consciousness of a pure mind,
free from accusation -- and no higher eulogy could be conferred
upon the captain of citizen soldiers, than to say, he never wantonly
exposed their lives, but was always solicitous of their safety.
To this address his answer was verbal. He no longer used the pen.
The feebleness of nature was making itself understood.
That he felt himself failing may be inferred from his withdrawal
from all public affairs. But his mind was cheerful and active to the last.
He still saw his friends and neighbors, and welcomed their coming --
could still mount his horse and cast his `eye over his acres.'
The progress of decline, in his case, was not of that humiliating kind,
by which the faculties of the intellect are clouded,
and the muscles of the body made feeble and incompetent.
He spoke thoughtfully of the great concerns of life, of death,
and of the future; declared himself a Christian, a humble believer in all
the vital truths of religion. As of the future he entertained no doubt,
so of the awful transition through the valley and shadow of death,
he had no fear. "Death may be to others," said he, "a leap in the dark,
but I rather consider it a resting-place where old age
may throw off its burdens." He died, peaceful and assured,
with no apparent pain, and without regret, at his residence
in St. John's parish, on the 27th day of February, 1795,
having reached the mature and mellow term of sixty-three years.
His last words declared his superiority to all fears of death;
"for, thank God," said he, "I can lay my hand on my heart and say that,
since I came to man's estate, I have never intentionally done wrong to any."
Thus died Francis Marion, one of the noblest models of the citizen soldier
that the world has ever produced. Brave without rashness,
prudent without timidity, firm without arrogance, resolved without rudeness,
good without cant, and virtuous without presumption.
His mortal remains are preserved at Belle-Isle, in St. John's parish.
The marble slab which covers them bears the following inscription: --
"Sacred to the memory of Brigadier-General Francis Marion, who departed
this life on the 29th of Feb., 1795, in the sixty-third year of his age,
deeply regretted by all his fellow citizens. History will record his worth,
and rising generations embalm his memory, as one of the most distinguished
patriots and heroes of the American Revolution; which elevated
his native country to honor and Independence, and secured to her
the blessings of liberty and peace. This tribute of veneration and gratitude
is erected in commemoration of the noble and disinterested
virtues of the citizen, and the gallant exploits of the soldier,
who lived without fear, and died without reproach."
This inscription was the tribute of an individual, not of the country.
The State of South Carolina has conferred his name upon
one of its district divisions. But a proper gratitude,
not to speak of policy, would seem to require more
"If it be we love
His fame and virtues, it were well, methinks,
To link them with his name i' the public eye,
That men, who in the paths of gainful trade,
Do still forget the venerable and good,
May have such noble monitor still nigh,
And, musing at his monument, recall,
Those precious memories of the deeds of one
Whose life were the best model for their sons."

Appendix A. Notes on the electronic text.
The great majority of changes in this electronic edition, from the original,
are in spelling (some words are spelled both ways in the original). To wit:
partizan > partisan.
merchandize > merchandise.
duresse > duress.
ancle > ankle.
swamp-fox > swamp fox. (The modern spelling.)
co-operate > cooperate.
bivouack > bivouac.
head-quarters > headquarters.
secresy > secrecy.
patrole > patrol.
A number of spellings which might be considered errors, and might not,
have been retained, where they are less likely to interfere with reading.
When the true facts were known, either from context or outside reading,
a few other errors were corrected. A couple are footnoted in the text.
Otherwise, the larger changes are:
Chapter 5 (p. 59 of the original): "Weems, in his life of our author"
has been changed to "Weems, in his life of our subject".
Chapter 6 (p. 80): "while the second North Carolina regiment"
has been changed to "while the second South Carolina regiment".
Chapter 14, last paragraph (p. 239): "Mrs. Moultrie"
has been changed to "Mrs. Motte".
These errors are not merely represented here for their scholastic interest,
but also to give the reader an appreciation of the types of errors
which Simms was frequently subject to make. Many have most certainly
not been caught -- if I had not lived in the Waxhaw area,
I certainly would not have known of the error (footnoted in the text)
which replaced `Waxhaw' with `Warsaw' -- two very different regions.
Names are particularly prone to error, not only by Simms,
but from the whole revolutionary era in the South -- many of the people
were only semi-literate, if literate at all, and many of the names
have been spelled several, even a dozen ways -- sometimes even
by the individual named. For all this, the errors of Simms
are generally minor, and will not prevent the reader from
a true appreciation of both Marion and Simms.

Appendix B. Song of Marion's Men. By William Cullen Bryant [1794-1878].
As this poem is quoted in part by Simms at the very beginning of the book,
I have considered it appropriate to include the whole here:
Our band is few, but true and tried,
Our leader frank and bold;
The British soldier trembles
When Marion's name is told.
Our fortress is the good greenwood,
Our tent the cypress-tree;
We know the forest round us,
As seamen know the sea.
We know its walls of thorny vines,
Its glades of reedy grass,
Its safe and silent islands
Within the dark morass.
Woe to the English soldiery,
That little dread us near!
On them shall light at midnight
A strange and sudden fear:
When, waking to their tents on fire,
They grasp their arms in vain,
And they who stand to face us
Are beat to earth again.
And they who fly in terror deem
A mighty host behind,
And hear the tramp of thousands
Upon the hollow wind.
Then sweet the hour that brings release
From danger and from toil:
We talk the battle over,
And share the battle's spoil.
The woodland rings with laugh and shout,
As if a hunt were up,
And woodland flowers are gathered
To crown the soldier's cup.
With merry songs we mock the wind
That in the pine-top grieves,
And slumber long and sweetly
On beds of oaken leaves.
Well knows the fair and friendly moon
The band that Marion leads --
The glitter of their rifles,
The scampering of their steeds.
'Tis life to guide the fiery barb
Across the moonlight plain;
'Tis life to feel the night-wind
That lifts his tossing mane.
A moment in the British camp --
A moment -- and away
Back to the pathless forest,
Before the peep of day.
Grave men there are by broad Santee,
Grave men with hoary hairs,
Their hearts are all with Marion,
For Marion are their prayers.
And lovely ladies greet our band
With kindliest welcoming,
With smiles like those of summer,
And tears like those of spring.
For them we wear these trusty arms,
And lay them down no more
Till we have driven the Briton,
Forever, from our shore.


text: The current state of the art for development of unconventional projects integrates geology, geophysics, and engineering into a comprehensive reservoir description. To that end, we have designed a comprehensive geophysical workflow to define the structure, stratigraphy, and rock mechanics of a stacked reservoir sequence in the west-central Midland Basin. The purpose of this paper is to describe the workflow. Portions of three seismic data sets were merged and processed anisotropically, preserving the full range of azimuths. Well control consisted of 35 compressional sonic logs, eight shear sonic logs, three sonic scanners, two lateral formation microimaging tools, and three cores. Nine newly drilled laterals are on production along with a large number of vertical legacy wells. Prestack inversion produced acoustic impedance, shear impedance, and density with good accuracy, although the compressional-to-shear-velocity ratio (VP/VS) was not stable. This volume was successfully recreated via neural net, which was also used to calculate total porosity and total water saturation volumes. Poisson's ratio, Young's modulus, and brittleness were created using standard equations and the neural net VP/VS volume. Structural attributes consisted of ant track, coherence, semblance, fault probability, and Kmin and Kmax curvature. The final step in this portion of the workflow was to create a high-resolution depth conversion velocity volume. A geocellular grid was built and populated with petrophysical volumes, lithology facies, and structural attributes. Principal stresses were incorporated by first establishing 1D mechanical earth models (MEMs) where appropriate log suites were available. These 1D MEMs were extended to a 3D MEM, although confidence in this volume is not high due to known pore pressure and closure stress reductions as a result of legacy vertical well production. Calibration incorporating new data as it becomes available is an ongoing task. An informative simulation using the MEM is frac models, which define the most optimal landing points for laterals. This MEM and the simulations it can perform have easily demonstrated the value of this integrated workflow.

PEOPLE in a Coventry street have described their shock after a man was attacked and left fighting for his life.
The victim, who is aged in his 30s, suffered serious head injuries in the incident in Nunts Lane, Holbrooks, at about 1pm on Saturday.
Today police said he remains "very critical" in Birmingham's Queen Elizabeth Hospital.
It is believed the victim was a builder involved in knocking down a garage at a house in Nunts Lane.
A man who was on the scene soon after the attack said: "I was told he was hit with a lump hammer."
He said he saw the man put on a heart machine.
He said the attack had left people shocked, and added: "You see it on the telly, but you don't think it will happen near you."
Other residents spoke of their shock at what happened in the road.
One man said: "It's usually quiet round here."
A woman, who asked not to be named, said police cordoned off the scene until Sunday evening while specialist officers conducted forensic inquiries.
She said: "We don't have any problems in the street and that really shocked everybody. Residents will be shocked because we have never had anything on this street."
Detective Sergeant Chris Bates, of Stoney Stanton Road police station, said emergency services were called to a report of a fight, and when they arrived they found the injured man.
He urged anyone with any information to contact police at Stoney Stanton Road police station on 0845 113 5000.
