FREDERICK, MD – The York College men's cross country
squad nabbed a third-place team finish at the 2009 Capital Athletic
Conference Championships on Saturday at Heritage Farm Park in
Frederick, Md. The Green and White had a pair of runners collect
all-league honors while six Spartans landed in the top-25 of the
79-participant race.
Ryan Janes (Gaithersburg, Md./Gaithersburg) and Jason Hinkle (York, Pa./Eastern York) each put in All-CAC performances as both finished in the top-ten. Janes landed on the all-conference first-team after registering a 27:31.34. The CAC allots the championship race's first seven positions collect first-team honors as Janes just edged out Mary Washington's Matt Cash by a mere 33 hundredths of a second to secure the accolade.
Hinkle notched a tenth-place finish as he completed the course in a strong 27:43.26. The senior's time provided for a second-team All-CAC berth, an accolade he also garnered at last season's championships.
Matt Provonche (Churchville, Md./C. Milton Wright), a 2008 All-CAC runner, finished in 18th on this day crossing the line at 28:00.38. Andrew Friesema (Adamstown, Pa./Cocalico) followed just behind Provonche as he took 19th on the day traversing the course in 28:01.47.
The Spartans also took the 24th, 25th, and 26th spots. In just his first CAC Championship, freshman standout Steven Childres (Ellicott City, Md./Mt. Saint Joseph) garnered 24th with a time of 28:31.00 Bret Kilefner (Stevens, Pa./Cocalico), another all-league performer last season, finished the race in a 28:34.56 time to take 25th while Patrick Lestrange (Green Brook, N.J./Watchung Hills Regional) recorded a 28:36.91.
First place in the meet went to Mary Washington's Frank DeVar who recorded a stellar 25:23.66 as the CAC Cross Country Athlete-of-the-Year outpaced the rest of the field by over a minute and a half. His coach, Stan Soper, was named the league's Coach-of-the-Year, while Salisbury's Stephen Berstler was named teh CAC Rookie-of-the-Year after taking third in the race.
Overall, the Spartans finish behind CAC cross-country powers
Mary Washington and Salisbury. York finished the race in a total
time of 2:19:47.45 while averaging 27:57.49 as a squad.
The Green and White continue their training regimen in preparation for next Saturday's NCAA Division III Mideast Regional. The race in Bethelem, Pa. is slated for an 11:00 a.m. start.

The Book of Exodus, is the second book of Moses and the Old Testament. The English title, Exodus, comes from the Greek translation (Septuagint, LXX) because the departure of Israel from Egypt is the dominant historical fact in the book (19:1). In the Hebrew Bible, the opening line, "And (or Now) these are the names," (Pr. Hebrew "elle-shemot") served as the title of the book. The opening "And" or "Now" in the Hebrew title suggest that this book was to be accepted as the obvious sequel to Genesis, the first book of Moses.
Tradition has it that this book was mostly written by the Prophet Moses 1,300 years before Christ.
Authorship and writing
According to Hebrew and Christian tradition, Moses is the author of Exodus. This is the teaching of Christ (Mk 1:44), of His disciples (Jn 1:45) and affirmed through the book itself (17:14).
Moses followed God's instructions and "Then Moses wrote all the words of the LORD" (24:4)
The name of the book suggest that Exodus was likely written during the forty years of Israel's wandering in the wilderness, from the crossing of the Red Sea to the entrance into the land of Canaan.
Major Theme
- God's covenant with Israel and the judgement of her oppressors.

The book relates how the sons of Jacob, a small tribe of wondering shepherds, became a God chosen nation. The covenant was central to this event. It bound God and Israel in an agreement by which God undertook to provide for all His people's material needs, including a land in which to live, if they would worship Him alone as the one true God and live as a holy community. Central to the rules of the covenant were the Ten Commandments, which are still fundamental to any relationship with God. The tabernacle was a portable temple of worship which was placed in the center of Israel's wilderness encampment, symbolizing God's presence in their midst. The religious and moral laws listed in the Book of Exodus did not lose their importance until this day, in fact, in His sermon of the Mount, Lord Jesus Christ has taught the deeper level of their understanding. In contrast, the civil laws and religious rites given to Hebrews and listed in the book of Exodus have lost their importance and were revoked by the Holy Apostles in the council of Jerusalem (cf. Acts 15).
This book deals with the miracle of Israel's deliverance from Egypt and with God's covenant relationship with the Israelites at Mount Sinai. Exodus can be subdivided into two main sections, historical and that of the giving of the Law. Preliminaries to the departure from Egypt (Ex. 1:l-4:28), where the providential acts of the Lord in the life of Moses, chosen by God for the deliverance of His people are listed, followed by the circumstances leading up to the Exodus, including the ten plagues of Egypt and the celebrating of the first Passover (4:29-12:39). The deliverance from Egypt and the subsequent journey to Sinai (chapters 12-18) precede the giving of the Law of God through Moses, where chapter 19 describes the circumstances of the giving of the Law, and consecutive chapters contain the codex of the moral and civil laws, sealed by Hebrews entering into covenant with God (chapters 20-24). Next follow the laws related to church services and priesthood (chapters 25-31), transgression of the Law in intervals of idolatry (chapters 32-33). A renewal of the covenant relationship (chapter 34) is followed by narratives describing the construction of the tabernacle and implementation of the Lord's directions by Moses (chapters 35-40).
It is instructive to put the accounts of Exodus in a historical perspective. Joseph was sold to Egypt by his brothers during the reign of the Hyksos, a Semitic tribe known as shepherd kings (some 2000 years BC). At that time Egypt was highly prosperous and mighty. The Pharaoh was most likely Amenemhet IV. He elevated Joseph in rank when he saved the Egyptians from famine and bestowed great blessings on him and his family. However, the ethnic Egyptian nobles united in Thebes and slowly drove out the Hyksos. Afterward there entered the 18th dynasty of the Pharaoh Amasis 1st (Ahmose I) The new rulers changed their relations toward the Jews. There began persecutions which turned to oppressive slavery. The new Pharaohs while working the Jews as slaves and forcing them to build cities, were at the same time concerned that the Jews would unite with outlying nomadic tribes and seize dominion in Egypt. The exodus of Jews from Egypt falls sometime in the mid 15th century BC. At that time the Pharaoh most probably was Thutmose I. The book First Kings 6:1 states that Solomon began building the temple "in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel had come out of the land of Egypt." Solomon is thought to have begun construction about 960 BC, a fact that also places the time of Exodus to the midst of the 15th century BC.

Holocaust Museum Houston uses the lessons of the Holocaust and other genocides to teach the dangers of hatred, prejudice and apathy.
As educators prepare to teach about the Holocaust and other genocides, there are several points that should be considered.
Chiefly, teachers should give thought to what they wish their students to know once the unit of study is completed. This understanding should certainly the historical facts of the events, but might also include new understandings of human behavior, social justice and civil actions. Adhering to the guidelines of the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum and the Task Force for International Cooperation on Holocaust Education, Remembrance and Research is strongly recommended.
There are a myriad of resources, activities and methods to consider when teaching about the Holocaust and other genocides. The pedagogical implications of each selection should be taken into account in choosing materials. For example, simulations are popular activities for many topics but are unsound for a study of the Holocaust. For example, it is impossible to simulate the terror of the events people suffered during this period, the deep level of starvation or the decision-making possibilities for those facing the events at that time. With that understanding, there are many significant ways to engage students.
For assistance in developing your unit of study, Holocaust Museum Houston offers a variety of professional development opportunities to help extend your knowledge and pedagogical considerations of the Holocaust and other genocides. For information on the latest opportunities, visit the Education/Outreach section of the Museum Web site.To keep up-to-date on Museum offerings for educators, consider joining the Museum's Educators E-Community to receive e-mail alerts on new programs and materials.

I liked it. You will too.
It's an ok movie. You could tell because we were the only ones at the theater.
Don't listen to those poorly rated reviews! This is a wonderful movie! Go see it!
Eh. I liked it, but at some points it got boring.
It's a good movie for both kids and adults, it has a wide range of bright colors. Loved it.
My children, 12 and 13, both thoroughly enjoyed this wonderful movie. It was colorful and vivacious, has a wonderful plot, and was overall a great movie. My children begged me to take them to see it again. I think it's quite inconsiderate of the people who put in a bad rating, because this movie has a wonderful meaning. I think it might not be the best for ages below eight due to certain scenes that might scare them a little. Please do your family/yourself a favor, and go see it.
Absolutely terrible! And now the actors from the movie are blaming their own failure on white male movie critics! Appalling.
I had never heard of this movie before I saw it, so had no idea or expectations whatsoever. I had to st op about 20 minutes after they got to the distant planet because it was just going nowhere. It was silly, making no sense, and some of the characters were awful. The feminized white kid, who seemed to have no purpose whatever besides standing there admiring Meg's hair. The freakish younger brother, the creepy Reese Witherspoon character. Afterwards I looked it up and found out it was made from a 1962 book, Oprah was in it, it was directed by a Black woman, etc. I did spot Chris Pine right away, and neither this movie or his performance will likely add anything useful to his resume.
I was a 100% unbiased reviewer and I thought it was garbage. So glad I didn't pay to see it.
Awful, Awful, Awful.
I left the theater angry at how terrible this was. It felt like an insult.
The darkness was too intense.
I liked the actresses and originality.
Liked the message it had to give.

WASHINGTON — A Samoan woman who acknowledged killing her newborn son at a Washington convent where she was studying to become a nun was sentenced Friday to four years in prison.
Sosefina Amoa, 26, has said she didn't know she was pregnant before she gave birth to a baby boy in her room at the Little Sisters of the Poor convent in Washington in early October. Amoa had arrived in the United States from Samoa less than a week before delivering the child. She acknowledged as part of a plea deal in February that after giving birth to her son she put a piece of wool clothing over his nose and mouth and applied pressure, smothering him.
On Monday, prosecutor Cynthia Wright praised Amoa's "generosity of spirit" for wanting to help others and become a nun, but she said Amoa also initially lied, claiming she had found the dead child outside, before acknowledging the boy was hers and had been born alive.
"The hard truth is that she consciously killed her son," Wright said in asking for a five-year sentence.
Wright held up a larger-than life photo of the infant and asked that the courtroom remain silent for two minutes, the same amount of time that Amoa has acknowledged having her hand over the child's mouth. Amoa's attorney, Judith Pipe, called the request "theatrics," but the judge allowed the court to pause.
In response, Pipe argued that Amoa would never have come to the United States if she knew she was pregnant and was "panicked" and "terrified" after giving birth. Pipe said Amoa loves children and never intended to hurt her baby. She has said previously that Amoa didn't mean to kill the boy, only to quiet him so she could figure out what to do.
Pipe asked that Amoa not spend any more time in jail and instead be deported immediately to her native Samoa. Or, she said, a sentence of less than a year was appropriate.
"This is a woman who will be punished for the rest of her days no matter what the court's judgment is," she said.
Amoa cried throughout much of the hearing. At one point she addressed the judge, her voice breaking repeatedly, telling him she was "shocked" when she gave birth to her son, whom she named Joseph.
"I was not able to think straight," Amoa said and asked for forgiveness.
Judge Robert Morin called the case a "tremendous tragedy" and said he believed Amoa was in denial about her pregnancy and shocked when she gave birth. Morin said Amoa had led a good life before hurting her child and he believes she is committed to leading a good life again.
"I hope you do heal," he told her.
Two Little Sisters of the Poor nuns attended Monday's hearing but declined to comment.

text: The visions of Mario Martinez (also aptly known as MARS-1) seem to either be extraterrestrial or drug induced. His large scale paintings hold to very realistic perspective. However, there the realism breaks down. Geometric shapes, organic like growths, and strange lighting effects intertwine to form one complex mass on his canvas. Martinez' work seems to depict something between living and synthetic, not quite landscapes or creatures. Check out his website to seem some similarly styled sculptural work.

I have a patient with persistent breast and nipple thrush. Other therapies have failed, so I have decided to treat her with a loading dose of 400 mg of oral fluconazole followed by 100 mg twice daily for at least 2 weeks. Is there any need for her to interrupt breastfeeding during this treatment?
Available data regarding fluconazole use during breastfeeding are reassuring. Fluconazole is also used in the treatment of fungal diseases in infants and has a good safety profile. Therefore, there is no need to interrupt breastfeeding when a mother is treated with fluconazole.
Une de mes patientes souffre d'une candidose aux seins et aux mamelons. D'autres thérapies ont échoué et j'ai donc décidé de la traiter avec une dose d'attaque de 400 mg de fluconazole par voie orale, suivie de 100 mg 2 fois par jour pendant au moins 2 semaines. Est-il nécessaire qu'elle interrompe l'allaitement durant ce traitement?
Les données disponibles concernant l'utilisation du fluconazole durant l'allaitement sont rassurantes. Le fluconazole est aussi utilisé dans le traitement des maladies fongiques chez les nourrissons et a un bon profil d'innocuité. Par conséquent, il n'est pas nécessaire que la mère cesse d'allaiter pendant son traitement au fluconazole.
Fluconazole is a triazole antifungal agent that inhibits the fungal cytochrome P450-dependent enzyme lanosterol 14 α-demethylase, disrupts the fungal cell membrane, and impairs cell replication. 1,2 Fluconazole has high oral bioavailability (> 90%), low protein binding, and good tissue penetration. 1,2 Its terminal elimination half-life is approximately 30 hours and it is mostly (approximately 80%) excreted unchanged in urine. Fluconazole has high in vivo and in vitro activity against most Candida strains and is used in a variety of doses (usually 1 to 12 mg/kg daily in children and 100 to 400 mg daily in adults) and durations (days to months) for different types of fungal infection in preterm infants, neonates, children, and adults. 1
The relative infant dose (RID) is an important parameter for predicting the safety of taking medications while breastfeeding. It is calculated by dividing the dose transferred to the infant via the milk (mg/kg daily) by the mother's weight-adjusted dose (mg/kg daily). An RID of less than 10% is generally considered safe for breastfeeding. 3
Human data in breastfeeding
Fluconazole has been reported to be excreted in human milk. Schilling et al describe a woman who was taking 200 mg of oral fluconazole per day for 30 days. Milk samples were obtained 8 days post partum (the 18th day of treatment). The maximum level of fluconazole detected in the milk was 4.1 mg/L, measured 2 hours after the dose. The estimated RID calculated with this value was 17%. The fluconazole elimination half-life in breast milk was calculated to be 26.9 hours in this report. 4
In another report, breast milk concentrations of fluconazole after oral administration of 150 mg were 2.93 µg/mL, 2.66 µg/mL, 1.76 µg/mL, and 0.98 µg/mL at 2 hours, 5 hours, 24 hours, and 48 hours, respectively. The estimated RID was 17% in this case. The terminal half-life in breast milk was calculated to be 30 hours. 5
It is important to note that the RIDs calculated in the above studies used the highest level of fluconazole in the breast milk, not the average level; therefore, these are overestimates, as the infant would not be exposed to this amount with each feeding.
Effects reported in breastfed infants
Chetwynd et al described a breastfeeding mother with persistent Candida mastitis. After 2 weeks of use and failure of topical nystatin, 200 mg of oral fluconazole per day was added to her treatment regimen. She continued breastfeeding her infant, who at 13 weeks of age also received 18 mg of oral fluconazole per day for 10 days after positive oral culture results for Candida albicans. During the mother's 11-week treatment and the simultaneous treatment of the baby and mother, no adverse events were reported in the infant. 6
Bodley and Powers reported a case in which a mother took fluconazole (mostly 200 mg daily) for 6 weeks. Liver function tests were ordered for her 9-week-old baby at the end of treatment, and a slight increase in lactate dehydrogenase levels was reported; however, this was not deemed to be of clinical concern. 7
Moorhead et al followed 96 breastfeeding mothers who were taking oral fluconazole for the treatment of Candida mastitis. The women took a mean of 7.3 (range 1 to 29) 150-mg doses of oral fluconazole. The mean age of their babies was 7.2 weeks (range 1 to 42 weeks). Adverse events were reported in 7 babies including flushed cheeks, abdominal pain, possible diarrhea, mucous feces, tiredness, and eczema (which improved with a change in detergent and maternal diet). 8
Safety of fluconazole in children
In a review by Novelli and Holzel, 562 children (aged 0 to 17 years), most of whom were immunocompromised, were treated with 1 to 12 mg/kg of fluconazole per day for 1 to 20 days. Adverse events were reported in 10.3% of children, with the most common being gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms; however, the treatments for associated diseases in these children might have caused the symptoms. No evidence of substantial hepatotoxicity was recorded, and transient increases in liver enzyme levels occurred in less than 5% of patients. 9
Schwarze et al concluded that fluconazole was effective and well tolerated in the treatment of 726 children younger than 1 year of age with systemic candidiasis and candidemia. 10
A recent systematic review including 90 studies demonstrated the relative safety of fluconazole use in neonates and other pediatric age groups (birth to 17 years of age). The review included 4209 children, 2354 of whom were preterm neonates. Fluconazole was administered either as prophylaxis (interquartile range [IQR] 3 to 6 mg/kg) or therapeutically (IQR 5 to 6 mg/kg daily). The IQR for the duration of treatment was between 14 and 67 days. The relative risk (RR) of all adverse events in the fluconazole group did not differ significantly when compared with the placebo group (RR = 1.30, 95% CI 0.84 to 2.03) and the other antifungal drugs group (RR = 1.05, 95% CI 0.62 to 1.80). Hepatotoxicity was the most commonly observed adverse event (37.1%); however, it was not significantly more frequent than in the placebo group (RR = 1.36, 95% CI 0.87 to 2.14) or other antifungal group (RR = 1.43, 95% CI 0.67 to 3.03). Gastrointestinal findings, such as anorexia, gastritis, dyspepsia, GI upset, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain, were the second most common adverse events; however, these findings were also not significantly different from groups taking placebo or other antifungal drugs. 11
Available data suggest that the estimated RID of fluconazole is higher (approximately 17%) than the generally accepted safe threshold of 10%. However, based on the studies discussed above, the dose that the infant is exposed to through breastfeeding (< 0.6 mg/kg daily) is lower than the dose used for systemic treatment (1 to 12 mg/kg daily in premature infants and 3 to 12 mg/kg daily in infants)1 in the pediatric age group, which has been shown to be well tolerated in different studies. 9-11 Therefore, fluconazole is considered compatible with breastfeeding. For typical doses and treatment durations, as in the treatment of vulvovaginal candidiasis or Candida mastitis, monitoring the breastfed infant for GI symptoms (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, etc) is sufficient. If the mother is receiving a high dose or prolonged treatment (weeks to months) for systemic mycosis, monitoring liver function of the infant should be considered.

The F1 key opens a help window. If you are working in a program and want to see the Windows help window, instead of the program help, press the Windows key (the key with the Windows logo on the bottom row of keys) on the keyboard and press F1 at the same time.
Select any folder or file name and press F2 in order to rename it. Type a new name for the file, then click outside the name box or press the enter key to make the name change.
The F3 key opens the Find Files window.
Press the Alt key and the F4 key at the same time to close the Window that is currently active. If you press the F4 key when you are working in Internet Explorer, the Address bar is selected so you can type the address of a Web page.
Press F5 to refresh the screen, for example, if you are viewing a directory of files and you delete or add files, press F5 to see any changes. Press F5 when viewing a Web page to see the most current version of that Web page.
Press F6 to cycle among open windows to make each one active in turn. F6 often moves the mouse pointer around the structure of the program.
The F7 key does not have any function in Windows. It is used for spell checking in many word processing and email programs.
Press the F8 key during the computer's startup to start the operating system in Safe Mode.
The F9 key does not have any function in Windows. It may be used in some individual programs.
Press the Shift key while pressing F10 to open the shortcut menu. The F10 key activates the menu bar in many programs. Press F10 to highlight the first menu choice, then use the arrow keys to move around the menus.
Press F11 when you are working in Internet Explorer to open the window to full and make all the toolbars disappear so you can see more information on the page. Press F11 again to toggle back to your normal page size.
The F12 key does not have any function in Windows. It may be used in some programs.

Revision as of 17:05, 30 July 2007
A work in progress...
A cursory glance on http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/plans at 08:58 UTC 2007-07-26 indicated that without entering zip code data two types of plans are available. 2-year contract plans (I think you have to talk to some for the 1 year plans) and Prepaid plans.
Contract Plans
- 08:58 UTC 2007-07-26 It seemed to me all there contract plans are 2 year terms unless you try to get one by calling or visiting a store "For a 1-year contract, call 1-877-387-4324 or visit one of our T-Mobile stores" at the bottom of the page
- 08:58 UTC 2007-07-26 They have either Individual/Regular Individual/MyFav Family/Regular or Family/MyFav plans
- 08:58 UTC 2007-07-26 Mobile To Mobile "...Note: Service in North and South Carolina, Iowa (area codes 319, 563, and 712), Wisconsin (area code 608), and Michigan (area code 906) is provided by T-Mobile roaming partners so calls will not be rated as mobile-to-mobile in these areas. Calls from or to locations outside of the US will not be rated as mobile-to-mobile."
- Needs more info..
Prepaid Plans
- 08:58 UTC 2007-07-26 Unpleasantly they have a gold status that gives one different refill values than normal users.
- 08:58 UTC 2007-07-26 I expect those that expend large amounts of money get gold status.
Refill value Premium Minutes Cost/Min Min Use Avoid Waste Expiration Gold Premium Minutes Gold Premium Expiration 08:58 UTC 2007-07-26 $10 30min 33.3cent/min ~1min/3day avg 90days gold+5min gold+330days 08:58 UTC 2007-07-26 $25 130min 19.2cent/min ~4min/3day avg 90days gold+20min gold+330days 08:58 UTC 2007-07-26 $50 400min 12.5cent/min ~9min/2day avg 90days gold+60min gold+330days 08:58 UTC 2007-07-26 $100 1000min 10.0cent/min 1year gold+0min gold+0days 08:58 UTC 2007-07-26 If you buy the $100 you get the gold crap and your minutes don't expire for a year but I bet there's tricky small print.
- 08:58 UTC 2007-07-26 You lose your number after 90 days of no service... "...To keep your mobile number active, refill within 90 days after your minutes expire. After 90 days, your account will be canceled and you will lose your phone number. If you want to restart service, you will need to activate new service."
- Inside Information: If you want to buy prepaid plans, it is best to go with the $100 gold plan. The catch is there is a $50 activation fee, so you end up paying $150 to get a SIM card with 1000 minutes valid for 1 year. The best thing to do is to not approach with an existing phone and get the "free" phone they give you with a $100 prepaid plan. The phone itself is not free, but costs $30. The best part about taking the phone is they will wave the $50 activation fee, so you basically will be getting a backup phone for free and pay $20 less to get started. There is always ebay willing to take the phone for you... ;-)

"Tomahawk chops" is the name given to a bone-in rib eye steaks. It's so called because once a beefy rib chop has been frenched—cleaned of excess tissue to uncover the bones—it resembles an American Indian tomahawk. This isn't a common fixture on menus these days, although the mammoth, almost Flintstonian chops make occasional appearances at steakhouses and are priced at a premium.–Spike Mendelsohn
LC Wish Bone Note
We know that traditionally the wish bone is found on poultry, although we can't help but think that the bone from a hefty rib eye of mammoth proportions is sort of a wish bone as well–though in this case it seems our wish has already come true.
Tomahawk Chops
- Quick Glance
- Serves 6 to 8
- For the sweet potato puree
- 8 medium sweet potatoes
- 3 sticks unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- For the tomahawk chops
- 3 tomahawk chops (that is to say, humongous bone-in rib eye steaks that have been frenched—about 2 pounds each)
- Extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Make the sweet potato purée
- 1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C).
- 2. Pierce the sweet potatoes with a fork in several places and roast until tender, 50 to 60 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
- 3. Slice open the potatoes, scoop out the cooked flesh, and place in a bowl. Add the butter, honey, and brown sugar and, using an electric mixer, beat until smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside and keep warm.
- Prepare the tomahawk chops
- 4. Preheat grill to high for indirect-heat grilling or place a heavy grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat and preheat the oven to 350°F (176°C).
- 5. Just before cooking, brush both sides of the tomahawk chops with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
If grilling: Arrange the steaks directly over the heat and grill for 2 minutes on each side. Transfer the steaks to the indirect heat side of the grill. Cover the grill and finish cooking the steaks until a meat thermometer registers the desired doneness, 120°F (49°C) for rare or 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare. Transfer the steaks to a platter and tent with aluminum foil. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
If cooking on the stove top: Sear the steaks for 2 minutes on each side, then transfer to the oven and cook to the desired doneness. Transfer the steaks to a platter and tent with aluminum foil. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
- 6. To serve, slice the tomahawk chops, keeping the meat from each steak separate. Sort of recreate the steak by stacking the slices back against the bone. Pass the sweet potato purée separately.

A nation state's responsibility to protect its population, known as the responsibility to protect, or RtoP, was the subject of a debate at the United Nations General Assembly in July. The global body had already affirmed the concept of RtoP at a meeting with almost 150 world leaders in 2005. RtoP is invoked in order to prevent four major crimes, namely, genocide, war crimes, ethnic cleansing and crimes against humanity. The July debate, the first on the subject at the U.N. since 2005, reflected the fact that not all member states agree on how to implement the concept in terms of the three pillars that support it.
Pillars one and two have received overall support from member states. The first pillar underscores the responsibility of nation states to protect their own people from violence that may arise from within, including preventing both the crimes themselves and the incitement to crime. The 1994 genocide in Rwanda, with an estimated one million slain, stands out as the most horrific example in recent decades of a state's failure to uphold this pillar. Other tragedies like the Holocaust, the Khmer Rouge "killing fields" in Cambodia and the massacres in the former Yugoslavia also stand out as sources of shame.
The second pillar focuses on the responsibility of the international community to assist sovereign states that are struggling with impending violence within their borders, aiding them through capacity building and by establishing early-warning capabilities. Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon noted in a July 21 report to the General Assembly, that "the world has underinvested in preventive capacities," and had "failed to notice looming mass murder" in Rwanda and elsewhere. Such failures reflect what he termed both a "paucity of will" and a "vicious cycle of ...finger-pointing in the face of unfolding atrocities." A lack of will and finger pointing have also contributed to the international community's failure to stop the present-day mass violence that continues in Darfur, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Somalia, the three most pressing unresolved conflicts, which are wreaking devastation on populations whose governments have failed to protect them.
The third pillar of RtoP is more controversial. If a country fails to protect its own people, and all subsequent peaceful attempts by the international community to assist a people fail, then the RtoP principle permits the collective use of force under the authorization of the United Nations. A key issue revolves around who is using the force, and upon what populations, and whether the use of force is proportionate and clearly prescribed by the RtoP principle. Father Miguel d'Escoto Brockmann, president of the General Assembly, said on July 21 that recent events have engendered a "prevailing lack of trust among developing countries," regarding any use of force by the developed countries. He cited Gaza as an example of an inappropriate use of force by Israel that inflicted numerous civilian deaths and seriously damaged the infrastructure of an already suffering population in the Middle East. Similarly, the American academician, Noam Chomsky, in a panel discussion before the General Assembly the same week, pointed out that Israel's use of superior force had the backing of the United States, thereby compounding the damage inflicted. He also pointed out that early warning signs of impending humanitarian disasters tend to be ignored when they interfere with profit motives. He cited Eastern Congo as an even worse disaster than what is happening in Darfur, with western corporations "robbing" the region of valuable minerals. Western interests, Chomsky said, have done nothing to prevent this theft.
The very concept of RtoP stems from a positive view of sovereignty as responsibility. But past events like those in Rwanda and elsewhere, as well as ongoing conflicts in Darfur, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Somalia, show that this positive view of sovereignty is not shared by all. The three pillars of RtoP are not yet of equal length, and what lies on top therefore remains unbalanced. The answer may well lie, as Fr. D'Escoto Brockmann said in his opening statement, in the creation of "a more just and equal world order, including in the economic and social sense, as well as a [reformed] Security Council." In the meantime, more needs to be done to build trust and to recognize that pillar three may provide the only solution to some otherwise intractable situations. As Desmond Tutu put it in an open letter to the member states, "if a state cannot or will not prevent or end these crimes, then the international community must...take decisive action ...by protecting vulnerable peoples when States are unwilling to do so."
Most would not deny that the RtoP principle has been misused by powerful nation states. Susan Rice, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, has said that it had been inappropriately used in conflicts like the largely American-led invasion of Iraq. But there have been some notable victories. In his report, the Secretary-General spoke approvingly of the way in which the international community's timely intervention in Kenya took place early enough to forestall further bloodshed after the disputed election of 2008. As he put it, "if the international community acts early enough, the choice need not be a stark one between doing nothing and using force." Less than stark choices are now available, if the needed political will is brought to bear.

Pearl Reference Pure
The Reference Pure series is one of the most innovative series from Pearl. Compared to the Reference series, the wall thickness of the shell was reduced by 30% (from 7.5 mm to 5.4 mm with tom-toms and from 10 to 7.2 mm for bass drums and floor toms). The Shellhardware was revised and weighs 30% less than that of the Reference series. Thanks to these changes in the shell design new sound dimensions were achieved: Reference Pure has more resonance, sounds much brighter and "lighter", has a significantly more defined and improved sensitivity especially at low volumes.

Editing something
Presupuesto $2-8 USD / hora
We need a native English speaker. We would like to edit my game texts and dialogues. Also, if you can write better expressions than mine, that's really good.
OK, We recorded a video (around 17 minutes) which shows all the writings in the game, so you can read the text and understand the story. The video represents a walk through of the game, so some of it is game play only. For editing, please, capture a photo of the scene and write the correction in the scene's picture itself. Please, see the attachment photos. Actually, I'm not a bad English speaker. You'll find few grammar and spelling mistakes only.
I hope this is clear to you :)
Thanks a lot...

Modified Mustangs & FordsEvents
1969 Boss 429 Crossing Mecum Auction in Kissimmee (Lot #S141)
One particular Mustang that graces almost every enthusiast's wish list is the classic Boss 429. With original matching engine, transmission and rear end, this unrestored 1969 Boss 429 is crossing the Mecum Auction in Kissimmee, Florida on Saturday, January 25th at 2:50 p.m. EST.
Unrestored, though repainted Candy Apple red, this '69 Boss 429 (#1696) features the original tail pipes, muffler, and original door and trunk jamb paint. New Goodyear Polyglas tires wrap around the original Magnum 500 wheels. This Mustang was a big hit at the famed Floyd Garrett Muscle Car Museum in Sevierville, Tennessee where it sat for about ten years.
This beautiful Boss still retains the original 429 V-8 engine, Borg Warner 4-speed close ratio manual transmission as well as the 3.91 rear end with Traction-Lok differential.
The Black Deluxe interior is also original including the ComfortWeave bucket seats, console, in-dash clock, woodgrain accents, special gauges, Rim Blow steering wheel, and Visibility Group. Standard to the Boss 429 is the Competition suspension, manually-controlled hood scoop, unique front spoiler, power steering, front disc brakes, and trunk-mounted battery.
With a freshly-detailed engine bay, this baby is ready to go home with a new owner. Documentation for this Boss 429 is impressive and includes an Elite Marti Report.

This is not my work. These steps were originally posted by GM.
There is also a good photo gallery of users' Appleseeds at www.biodieselpictures.com:
Using the Appleseed Reactor:
1. fill the reactor with oil using the reactor pump (difficult and optional). This pump won't draw up liquids very well, especially the first time you use it.
The better solution is a rotary barrel pump ($40 at Harbor Freight Tools), with it's outlet hose attached to the drain/fill tube of the reactor (the clearwater pump will pass liquids right through).
Another option for self-priming is the Harbor Freight marine tranfer pump which is also inexpensive and has gotten good reviews despite it's flimsy appearance.
If you do use the Clearwater Pump on the reactor to fill, you will need to close off the main valve between the tank and the plumbing manifold, and stick the drain/fill hose into a bucket of oil as close to the pump as possible. You will also have to open the vent at the top of the reactor so that the displaced air inside the reactor has someplace to go. Make sure your vent runs to the outdoors, it'll vent some methanol after you've started making biodiesel in the unit.
2. test oil (titration and water tests)
3. start heating the oil
4. at the same time, measure lye or KOH and add to the carboys of methanol. Give them an initial shake. You don't have to shake hard.
5. shake or rock methoxide carboy every 20 minutes while oil heats. This can also be done the night before or even earlier.
6. check that lye is dissolved by looking through the bottom of carboy for clumps. Don't lift the carboy above your face/head/eyes to do this, in case you've left something un-attached and it leaks.
7. connect methoxide delivery lid to carboy. Put carboy on a shelf above the reactor pump
8. open the vent at the top of reactor. The vent should have a hose or pipe leading to the outdoors to direct any methanol fumes out of your work area. you can also put the vent through a condensor to minimise the methanol hazards, but you still need to vent the system out of your workspace.
9. To check the temperature of the oil, you must turn on the pump, assuming the temperature gauge is in the plumbing of the pump. Do not rely on the 'numbers' stamped on some water heater thermostats, they are not accurate once you've mixed the contents of the water heater.
When oil is at temperature (130F), turn off the heater and turn on the circulating pump.
Open methoxide valve fully. Look at color of oil in the pump output tube. If it does not change when methoxide valve is open, then you're not drawing in any methoxide (due to pump being wimpy!). In most Appleseeds this will be the case.
In this case, close the main oil valve between the reactor and the rest of the plumbing SLIGHTLY. You want to have as much oil and as little methoxide going through the pump as you can, to ensure a good mix. You are looking for a slight color change (to turbid) in the pump return tubing. A faster pump would be helpful here. When one carboy is empty, exchange lids for the other one.
10. Once methoxide is all added to reactor, close the vent valve on top of reactor to avoid losing methanol to the atmosphere. Make sure the heating element is unplugged!
Circulate mixture for at least 2 hours (read www.biodieselcommunity.org article about quality testing to learn more about 'conversion' tests that will tell you how long to mix for your particular batch and oil).
Temp shouldn't drop greatly below 120, if it does, you may want to add more insulation to the tank next time (conventional bubblewrap works great)
11. Let glycerol settle for 8-24 hours. Longer settling time is always better- as microscopic droplets of glycerol and soap take a long time to settle in a sealed reactor- the excess methanol keeps them suspended.
12. drain glycerol. If you've used NaOH lye, and titration results are over 4-5 ml on the titration, your glycerol may solidify. In that case, it's a good idea to drain most of the glycerol as soon as possible, then settle longer and drain more (see #11) to prevent solid clogging of your plumbing. If it solidifies, you can turn on the heat for a short time, and could pour hot water over the solid in the plumbing, or use a blow dryer or hot air gun to warm the plumbing or pump up.
I recommend using KOH instead of NaOH as none of these problems would happen.
Use carboys or buckets to drain the glycerol/soap/methanol byproduct. Don't sniff it- there is methanol present. Please see Graham Laming's website here to learn more about a 'self-venting jug lid' that will allow you to drain the glycerine without releasing any methanol fumes into your work space.
13. You will get at least 2 gallons of intermixed glycerol/biodiesel. Some water heaters produce less 'intermixed', some more. It is very important to not put this stuff into your wash tank as it contains a huge amount of soap that can cause great difficulty in washing or other soap removal.
You can tell that this 'intermixed' layer is coming out of the drain by looking at the color of the liquid in a clear drain tube (don't use braided line, use completely clear tubing), and you may notice that it drains faster than the glycerol. Save this intermixed liquid to settle further in a carboy, then pour off the biodiesel from it into your wash tank once glycerol settles. Another trick is to slow down the drain valve once intermixed biodiesel/glycerol appears- this will cut down on the amount of biodiesel that enters the intermixed layer.
If it's your first time using your reactor, wait a few minutes after you think you've gotten all of the 'intermixed' layer out, then drain a little bit more. You may find that glycerine is still settling out . This may be because it will stick on the sides of some tanks and needs more time to creep to the bottom, or it may be that you didn't get it all the first time. If that is the case, drain a little more into your 'set-aside-to-resettle' jug.
It is less cumbersome to have a separate settling tank for separating glycerine and biodiesel. This could be identical to a standpipe wash tank but with a shorter standpipe. You'd pump all your reactor contents to that tank and let them settle, then drain just biodiesel from on top of the glycerine. If your standpipe is too short (not a bad thing) you'll have to play with the valves a little to drop the levels to the right point before clean biodiesel will come out. Do not use the same settling tank as your wash tank.
14. Now, use the pump and it's fluid transfer manifold valves to pump the settled biodiesel into the wash tank. Wash according to instructions in washing articles at www.biodieselcommunity.org or elsewhere.
15. if you have a standpipe wash tank, you can then use the standpipe to drain off the settled washed biodiesel. This can also be pumped through a filter or to storage by using the reactor's pump- close off the main oil valve on the reactor to isolate the pump from the reactor, drain anything that's in the pump tubing, and connect the standpipe wash tank's standpipe drain tube with the drain/fill tube of the reactor (using barbed coupling and hose clamps). You also will want to make sure it's only biodiesel, not water, coming out of the standpipe first before attaching the pump to it. With a standpipe wash tank, you will then leave behind some water to reuse on the next wash. You can also gravity filter, but it is excruciatingly slow..
Moved Reply: We are heating our first batch (20 gallons) of WVO in the appleseed processor now. About how long does it take if the WVO was about 75 degrees F to start with? It has been going for several hours and it is around 100.
Moved Reply: it should be over 100 by now. First question- are you circulating the oil while checking the temperature ? the temp gauge only works while hot oil is going through the pipes. second question- is it possible that something's wrong with your thermostat? third question- do you have a thermometer for test batches? If so, run the pump for a few minutes to mix up any cold/hot oil layers, then drain a quart or so sample into a pot, and quickly stick the thermometer in it. This will tell you if the temp gauge on the reactor is working or not.
Moved Reply: Yep, you are the BD goddess!!! It was actually at 140 and we didn't know it.
Moved Reply:
Do you know of any negative consequences resulting from the element being plugged in while introducing the methoxide to the tank? The temperature would be greatly affected by the significantly colder methoxide, especially in the colder months.
Moved Reply: I usually heat the oil to 125 degrees F, shut the heater off and add the methoxide. The methoxide is colder but I believe that the chemical reaction that is occuring helps to maintain the temp. My reactor is insualted with paper backed fiberglass and has no problem maintaining the 125 degree F temp during the mixing process even with the element turned off.
The area where I react is unheated and I live in Mid Michigan. The typical temp in there in the morning is 40 to 45 degrees F. While working I run a turbo heater fueled with 80%BD/20%PD.
There have been times that I forgot to turn the element off and have yet to have blown myself up. With all that oil in there the methanol is very unlikely to explode or catch fire. But it's a good safe pratice to turn the heater element off.
Very funny Scottie, now beam down my clothes.
Moved Reply: I am posting for the first time. I am in the process of gathering the supplies to make the appleseed. I have some basic questions about substituting some of the recomended items and wanted to know if this was a good forum topic for those questions or if there was a better place to get suggestions? Basically, I have a 1/2 inch pump that is perfect for hot caustic liquids and I would like to use brazed copper fittings instead of black pipe, all 1/2 inch instead of the recomended 3/4 inch. Any suggestions or places to go for answers?
Moved Reply: While doing a test heat for a batch of oil, i've noticed that the heating is sluggish. I know that's to be expected, but i noticed a bit of flux smelling smoke comming out of the vent tube on the top of the appleseed. This coupled with no noticable change in temp from the 65 that it started at leads me to believe that for some reason i'm buring out elements.
I drained out the oil, replaced the element (2000W 110V) and heated the whole thing up again. I noticed about 20 seconds of smoke puffs comming out of the vent tube again coupled with what seems to me like a temperature hang at 90 degrees (it got there this time).
I'm going to try again today to heat it up using the same element, but the smoke did alarm me.... not something i want to see if it's not noramal. What's going wrong here? Am i burning out elements? Is my thermostat (I have never changed it since i salvaged the water heater, it's set at 130)? Is it something else i'm not doing right (i'm circulating the oil, installing the heating element in the bottom port and in the proper orientation)? Am i buying 110V elements not suitable for BD?
Thanks by the way for being here and helping with new homebrewers like myself!
Moved Reply: It seems like that's what would happen if you were not circulating the oil while the element is on. Are you using enough oil in your batch to cover the element while it is circulating? I use a 4500W element at 220V, and have no problems with burnout. That's doing a 25 gal. batch in a 40 gal heater.
Moved Reply: to the best of my knowledge, the oil is circulating. I use all hard black iron pipes so i really can't tell in the traditional way, you can certainly hear the splashing of the oil into the reactor and can feel that the oil is all about a uniform temperature. Plus, i know my pump is working. I'm also doing a 25 gallon batch in a 42 gallon heater, so at least the situations are similar.
Is there a difference between the thermostats for 110V and 220V? I guess you can tell from my focus on this that replacing that thermostat is the first thing i'm going to do in my 'error checking'. Any suggestions? Am I on the right track here?
PS: Is there any practical way to test an element outside of the water heater?
Moved Reply: I'm going to post this somewhere else... it just doesn't seem like a question that should go here.... needs it's own thread.
Moved Reply: If you are using a 220V water heater make sure you have upgraded to a motor control switch.(about thirty dolllars at the localk electrical supply) this will keep all circuts properly charged. To the brazed copper pipe- this sounds great but it will decrease the serviceability when you have a failed batch or the glycerine solidifys.
Moved Reply: motor control switch? not sure what to make of that...
Moved Reply: I can only se one posibility the element is not deep enough on the oil ..by way of set to high, not enough oil in the unit, or that you are mixing way to fast and the element may be getting nearly expossed ..
and to test the element just put a multi metre set on ohms across the terminals ( with cables off ) and read the metre the resistance should be simular to the rating of your element ..if zero reading the element is a dud ..if the reading is less than you expect it may still be a complete circit when cold but may go open circit when it starts to work they are cheep enough to replace if you think it is sus anyway ..
Moved Reply: Gudday Kev,
Where do you source your heater elements from? How much is cheap? Are you in Perth? Do you use screw in or flange elements? Is that too many questions? Why?
Sorry for bombarding you like this, but you might have some info that helps me.
Moved Reply: Do you have 2 elements in your hot water heater? If so, I assume you did disconnect the top element yes? If not thats where the smokes coming from!
2003 Duramax
Moved Reply: I have only one element in my water heater and it is in the lower port. It is the one with the four bolt flange (not the screw in... i'm not that lucky!). I payed about $18.00 for the element (that was on special... usually $23). It's the doubled back kind. I don't know if it's "low watt density" or not, because it doesn't say it on the package that it came in from Lowes.
The element is in good position, i think it's the grunge in the oil... i'm kicking myself for not filtering it more before putting it into my reactor for testing.... kick kick kick...
As an aside, i've noticed people talking about "Glycerine Prewash" techniques.... how is this done and with the appleseed design and what does it do exactly?
Moved Reply:
No circulation required. I only recommend this with 220-volt elements using 110 volts.
Girl Mark you know I think the world of you. I only wish I had a fraction of your knowledge. But why O why are we not advocating the use of a digital oven thermometer with the Appleseed reactor. I know others have discussed their use.
You just need to shove the SS probe in between the insulation and as close to the metal body as possible. Almost as if you are trying to scourer the metal body of the water heater. It is very accurate if you place the probe upward toward the center of the reactor. Unlike the sun (or similar auto thermostats) digital oven thermometers start displaying at a much lower temp. It even chirps when it hits a desired temperature.
A notch was filed in the plastic and metal to protect the braided cord that runs between the water heater and the blue protective cover. The oven thermometer is usually placed above my timer at eye level. I just didn't want to take two pictures.
Fifteen bucks at Wal-Mart. I can't imagine anything being easier or cheaper.
Moved Reply:
I hope gasgirl is gone. She wasn't doing much for us was she.
Now, yes filtering can help but its a pain. Better to let your oil settle, then suck off the top.
The prewash is adding 5% water at the end of processing your oil. What it does is help to stop the reaction from creating more soap. It also helps to get the already suspended soap bonded to some water. That way it will settle out.
This means less washing and less water later on.
Moved Reply: I'm about to fire up my new appleseed processor and the question of reactor cleaning has come to mind. How important is the cleanliness of the system? What is the easiest way?

Tooling Update
Fast, Precise Cylindrical Grinder
The new StuderGuide guide system ensures precise movement of the longitudinal and cross slides. The system combines the advantages of hydrostatic and hydrodynamic guide systems and avoids the slip-stick effect or floating of the slide. With this maintenance-free guide system, Studer guarantees a straightness of less than 0.0001 in. over a measured length of 37.4 in.
The longitudinal slide (Z-axis) has a ground worktable that carries the work head and tailstock as well as additional accessories and devices. Longitudinal and cross slides are moved by linear direct drives and are rated to 66 ft./min. Maximum workpiece weight is 551 lb.
As many as four external grinding wheels or three internal grinding spindles enable more than 30 grinding-head combinations. The grinding wheels are driven by motor spindles rather than belt drives; the machine can be equipped with motor spindles for high-speed grinding; internal grinding spindles with speeds from 6000 to 120,000 RPM can be used; and automatic balancing systems and frequency converters for each external grinding spindle allow grinding processes to be matched to the respective conditions of use.

FISCHER — On June 21 of this year, their 15th wedding anniversary, Beverly and Armando Garcia moved into their home atop a hill overlooking Canyon Lake and much of the Texas Hill Country.
It had been a long nine months.
They had previously lived on that lot, with its spectacular 360-degree views. But after September 2011, a total redo began.
In the fall of last year, a fire started in the Garcia home while a contractor was working in the attic. The stunning 7-year-old home, a former Spaces feature, burned to the foundation. Two walls were all that were left of the structure.
The Garcias never questioned whether they would rebuild.
"There is not another lot like this," Beverly said. "It is irreplaceable."
They chose the same builder, Gary Wilkerson Homes, for the second house but went with a different style and slightly different floor plan.
"Our first house was Texas Hill Country-style. This house is Tuscan-style," Beverly said.
At the suggestion of their builder, they chose cantera stone columns on the front porch.
"We also expanded the front porch area," Armando added.
The builder carried the Tuscan theme throughout the house by using cantera stone as a base for the large kitchen buffet (a must-have for Beverly), in the chimney-less fireplace and in columns on the back porch.
Both Armando and Beverly have a keen eye for detail, and their influences on the design of the home can be seen throughout. Armando liked the idea of a chimney-less fireplace. In keeping with the open-living concept of the home, it was his idea to have a large window above the fireplace. The hot vent from the fireplace posed an issue on the deck, so Armando had a piece of decorative wrought iron installed over the vent.
A large skylight above the kitchen allows more natural light to flow into the informal living, dining and kitchen area. Kitchen counters are spectrus granite set against natural cherry cabinets. Floors are slate and distressed wood. A glass pantry door was customized when Armando commissioned artist Ralph Quintana of the Coppini Academy of Fine Arts in San Antonio to paint the raised grapevine pattern.
"It just really brings out the design," Beverly said.
The Garcias are supporters of area artists. Much of the artwork that was displayed around the first house, and personal photos that hung on a "heritage wall," were saved by firefighters who responded to the fire.
"We can't say enough about them," Beverly said. "They got here in eight minutes. Then they just grabbed things that looked to be of sentimental value as they would make their way out of the house."
Beverly enjoys showing off the laundry room in the house.
"Imagine you are walking in to wash a load of clothes, and you look up," she said, as she opens her arms to frame what is before her.
Above the washer and dryer, a large window presents a postcard-ready view of Canyon Lake.
"That was our builder's idea," Armando said.
Stepping onto the back deck of the house, it becomes clear why rebuilding was never a question of "if" only "when."
The large deck includes a railing of tempered glass so as not to obstruct the views of the lake and surrounding Hill Country.
The home also includes a swimming pool and fountain built on one side of the hill. A downstairs gym and swim spa complete the hilltop retreat.
Betty Taylor is a New Braunfels freelancer.
House Rules
Beverly Garcia belongs to the Gruene Orchid Society and grows orchids in her greenhouse. She uses them as a natural backsplash/backdrop for the sink in the kitchen buffet.
As the former owner of a company that supplies plants to corporate offices, Garcia also incorporates live plants inside her home, including several large ones in the master bedroom. They include a Balfour Aralia and a Janet Craig 'Lisa' from Ambius Interior Plants.
Armando bought Royal Empress trees to plant outside the laundry room and by the pool. The rapidly growing trees have large, deep-green leaves.
The Garcias opted to raise the ceilings in the new house, going with 11-foot ceilings to give the home a more open feel.
No detail was too small in the Garcia house. The front music room includes a fake transom window with fancy scrollwork. "We liked that pattern on the glass (from Deluxe Glass in New Braunfels) because we thought it resembled musical notes," Beverly said.
Beverly said that in addition to the help of firefighters, she was impressed with MacKenzie Restoration of San Antonio. "They packaged everything up, cleaned it and returned it to us," she said.
Got Space?
Know of a beautiful, unique house that would be great for Spaces? Email suggestions for Spaces to Real Estate Editor Emily Spicer, email@example.com.
Correction: MacKenzie Restoration is in San Antonio. The business' location was incorrect on Sunday's page D6 of the Express-News and on mySA.com.

Reinhold Komes, born march 18 of 1932 got violently tortured by Wes Clark inside the basement of a hospital in Antwerp, Belgium on june 26 of 1999. Wes Clark was there in his green NATO uniform and had organized it himself. 2 Belgian policemen were taking pictures of the torture.
Clark has told me in the spring of 2000 when breaking into my hotel room in Switzerland (the Swiss police got called so this can easily be proven) that it was my fault that he got fired from his NATO job. Meaning I guess that the torture and very violent murder that he had committed had consequences for him and that was supposed to be my fault, even though I had not yet pressed any charges. The guy is not ticking straight. Hearing that piece of shit trying to sell the idea that he has any honor makes me want to vomit. The guy is a disgrace to the US Army and to NATO. A perfect example of what America should not want to stand for. A torturer and murderer who pretends to be a hero. And finds it the most normal thing in the world to get away with earlier committed crimes and to further stalk and harass the victims.
There are several Belgian police guys (working for NATO, I assumed, but could just as well be any other Belgian government facility. These people where Belgians dressed in civilian clothes but with a very typical either military or police attitude. They spoke French, Flemish and English which is pretty normal in Belgium). In 1992 that could easily testify that Clark kept stalking me in 1992 and 93. He would at times send around Belgian police guys to ask for a date. There is even one occasion when a Belgian police guy was telling me that he was send by Clark to ask me for a date, talking in French, but at the same time urgently signaling with his arms, that he was wearing a wire and I should say NO. Which is not difficult because I cannot stand Clark. And I especially could never stand the aggressive manner in which he and his ugly bitch kept pursuing me in Brussels for no reason. Clarks aggressive stalking began after the Pentagon had already received plenty of prove and confirmation about my clairvoyance. Clark and Bush junior where inside my grandparent's hotel in 1975.
My dad's violent torture and murder was with intent, and very organized and certainly qualifies as especially heinous crime.
The motive for the killing seems to be, to prevent me from warning about the 9/11 attack. That too has led to more people getting killed during the attack.
That in my personal opinion is a lot more then reckless endangerment of the people that got killed during the attack of September the 11th of 2001. But it was actually not the idea to prevent the war that occurred as a result of the attack of 9/11.
Anyone who can think straight will immediately realize that this entire situation does have a lot to do with the national security of more than one country.
Here is another blog of mine. A little bit too full. And because of that it gets more difficult to find the right information. I will try to change that and rebuild it asap.
If anyone feels like helping to send the information out to the media or wants to mirror the blog. Be my guest, the more people who get the information the better. And yes this urgently needs to get investigated. Clark during his last visit on March 5 of 2010, was even trying to threaten me by exposing private phone conversations that have taken place as early as 1987. The dumb shit fails to understand that he revealed information that I had not known before (Pentagon listening in to my phone calls as far back as 1987 possibly longer) and that I am not the least scared of revealing that I have had sex in my spare time at age 24. Other then Clark and his ugly bitch I am not at all sexually frustrated.
P.S. There are witnesses (still alive) who could testify to the fact that Clark was in Amsterdam if they are not too scared and have been threatened as well. The phone records can easily prove that Clark has made appointments with firms that I have worked for multiple times. The tiniest little bit of investigation would get Wes in trouble and prove immediately that everything that I describe on here is true.
Please sign my Petition to the White House, the German and the Dutch Government to
finally give back my dad on Change org.

La torture organisée par Wesley Clark
I seem to be getting a lot of attention from people who look at my blogs from either Russia or the Ukraine lately. I am sorry for not being able to communicate in your own language with you but I am very happy with all of the attention. Thank you for taking the time to read my blog and please feel free to send them to all of your friends and the media in your country. You can be certain that my story is 100% true. Russia or China are certainly not the only countries who make mistakes. Pentagon, NATO plus multiple governments (the Dutch, the Germans, and the Americans and I really mean Willem-Alexander, Merkel and Obama have all received very detailed information about the case) are all fully informed about this case and seem to go through a lot of trouble to try and hide the very criminal behavior of their secret services (CIA-BND and AIVD all had a part in it and aided Clark with the torture).
Once the fucking Pentagon has started to torture and target a person, they then go and manipulate every relevant secret service in Europe to participate and order the police to ignore international law. The police then refuses to investigate.
Despite of the fact that there is a list of more than 20 people who all witnessed Clark commit crimes in Europe. And Clark has no alibi for any of the dates mentioned on my blogs. So again thank you very much for taking the time to read my blog and please feel free to send the links to my blogs around to everyone that you can find.

Reponse to Abby.
It is probably too late to add my two cents, but I thought I would reply to Abby's comment about having experienced GWSS people in the class and say that for my part, I was grateful to have people new to GWSS. It was interesting to watch people who had never thought about the nuances of the debates over prostitution or stay-at-home moms realize the repercussions of these subjects. I remember encountering these ideas in my first GWSS class and how it changed my outlook. I went on to be a GWSS major and I think it would be awesome if someone went on to take more GWSS classes because of this semester. I thought we had a good balance of debate. Someone was always ready to add a comment from another side of a debate or help the class move past a commonly held assumption to look deeper. I thought the variety of readings was especially helpful because we had chances to encounter the densest of writers (Butler and Dworkin) and authors who were able to reach out of academia and draw everyone in. I think the films were also helpful to tie many topics together. Although there was no official media review part of this course I found the times the class spontaneously brought the discussion around to media treatment of women, commercial and ad analysis and television show commentary were some of our most interesting discussions. Maybe that would be a fun component to add to the blog next semester. It is fun to analyze the way media interacts with feminist debates.

A Cosmic Holiday Ornament, Hubble-Style
'Tis the season for holiday decorating and tree-trimming. Not to be left out, astronomers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope have photographed a festive-looking nearby planetary nebula called NGC 5189. The intricate structure of this bright gaseous nebula resembles a glass-blown holiday ornament with a glowing ribbon entwined.

Filthy rich Matt Mullenweg calls rival "dirty"
Automattic, Matt Mullenweg's blog-tools startup, is readying an upgrade to its WordPress software this week. Anil Dash of Six Apart took the occasion to let WordPress users know they can upgrade to his company's Movable Type instead. It's a move straight out of Oracle's handbook. But Mullenweg freaked out, calling the post "desperate and dirty." Dash responded by charging Mullenweg with "slander." Some are under the delusion that this nerdfight is about software. It's not. It's about money.
Specifically, Mullenweg's money. Automattic recently raised $29.5 million in venture capital — bringing its total raised past Six Apart. The Automattic deal was unusual: Some of the money went directly to Mullenweg, and a handful of other employees, instead of to his company. Automattic's investors, in other words, partially bought him out. A failed bidder for Automattic has been going around saying that Mullenweg's personal take was around $20 million.
Why buy Mullenweg out? VCs normally like to keep founders' incentives in line with their own, so everyone's shooting for a big payday. One might think showering a founder with cash ahead of an IPO or acquisition might be a sign that he's valued. Actually, it's the opposite: Making Mullenweg rich before eveyrone else is his investors' way of saying they don't care if he takes a hike.
Mullenweg surely realizes this. As satisfying as it might be to check his bank account, it has to be frustrating to realize he's not deemed relevant to Automattic's future. And that, more than anything, is what must prompt him to lash out at his chief rival.

Etihad Airways and American Airlines announced that they will offer passengers the opportunity to redeem frequent flyer miles on flights booked on each other's networks.
Starting October 18, 2011, members of Etihad Airways' Etihad Guest frequent flyer programme and American's AAdvantage® programme will be able to redeem miles on eligible American Airlines flights and eligible Etihad Airways flights, respectively. This follows the June 1 announcement that the airlines would allow passengers to earn mileage across their respective networks.
The codeshare agreement between Etihad and American, in place since August 2009, delivers a combined codeshare network of more than 50 destinations worldwide.
Peter Baumgartner, Etihad Airways' Chief Commercial Officer, said: "I am thrilled to offer full 'earn and burn' options for the valued members of the Etihad Guest and AAdvantage programmes.

Mihai necesitaba un nuevo diseño de página web y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 36 diseños de 11 diseñadores freelance.
I want a design for a software company specialized in web programming.
none, yet
I want a design for a software company specialized in web programming.
I can pay extra for the XHTML coding, we'll see that in the end.
During the contest, I will try to direct you on the right path and I won't waste your time.
I will also provide constructive feedback.
I will pay on time preferably by paypal.
Please use Istockphoto for the images. If you need high resolution images during the contest, let me know and I'll buy them so you can show me a better preview.
In the first part, just show me the home page, I will request from you in particular to design the other pages. All pages you create for me (home & subpages) must contain sample texts and examples as I am going to use that as a template so this is very important.
Design requirements
This has to be unique, high quality and look professional.
1. I like the designs that 'teleport' you to a different location, that will capture your attention with their images and graphics, something to interact with you. What I try to say is that I don't want a simple block of lines, I want a background image to be visible the whole width of the site. It's not necessary to be the background, nor the header, nor the footer, this is your decision, you are the artist.
Examples for the above requirement:
2. The design must be in the center of the page and must be wide enough ( ~700 px in width). If you use a header/background that will cover the whole width, make sure you think of it to cover most of the popular screen resolutions today. This is not necessary, but you should find a fix for this.
3. Basically, I want this: http://tehacesequence.deviantart.co…1-81219302 but unique and for me.
4. As in #3, you must use Icons and small & effective graphics. You have to pay attention to detail, everything must fit and must be perfect. You should also use a semi transparent box ( like in #3 where is says 87% ...) for each page. I don't need a search field.
5. In the portfolio, I might want to write details about each project. Find a smart and interactive way for me to do that.
6. You might also use a source code background in small areas (not necessary). Again, attention to detail.
7. The main color could be that blue, but black is also fine. Might consider black if you find this style nice, like I do:
As you can see, I like sky scrapers in the dark, I find these images brilliant, especially http://cc-designs.deviantart.com/ar…-103586719 .
8. Header links must have a complex styling. These should be the buttons: Home, About Us, Custom services, Our Clients, Request Quote, Support
9. Make this design without a logo (or a small sample one), I will get one based on the design.
10. As in feeling's first entry, he had a brilliant idea: he used city lights in the header and sea in the footer.
Please feel free to use your imagination. Contact me if you have questions.
I don't want it to look look straight and simple.
