Sci fi/Fantasy image by
Sara TaylorEver thought up a really cool idea for a video game and set to work, only to give up halfway through because your idea isn't accepted by a gaming company? Well I have, and this was one of the characters. As the title implies, she is a ghost, sent to aid the Heroes of my game in their quest to save a bunch of funky little critters called Tashikos (also the name of the game heh). Might add a few pics of them later on.. hmmm.... ANYhoo, you'll notice the background is a bit.. odd... well that's how it scanned in for some reason, but I like to think it resembles clouds (or something...)

Social Activities,
Please take a look at our document "Students' instructions for Social Activities"
Our exciting year-round social programme offers our students the opportunity to make new friends and practise using English in different social circumstances.
The programme is designed to ensure that you experience life in the UK to the full by joining our social and cultural activities in and out of school, as well as weekend excursions outside of London.
We appreciate that London can be an expensive city for students so we provide many free or low-cost activities including museum visits, markets, London walks, Changing the Guard at Buckingham Palace, sports days and visits to famous London landmarks.
Some activities include food/drink bills or entry fees, which are often cheaper for our students, for example:
- A theatre or musical trip: £15 - £30
- An exhibition/day excursion in London: £10
- A full-day excursion out of London: £30
- A club night in London: £10 entrance fee
- Brunch in a local restaurant: £5 - £12
- English afternoon tea: £8 - £15
- Jack the Ripper tour: £5
Please note that these are only examples of prices. All the details, including actual prices, are displayed on our social activities notice board in the main corridor of the language school.
What's on this month? - Social Activities Calendar
If you have any problems with your health or have any concerns about our offsite social activities, for your own safety, please inform a member of staff before participating. Our Welfare Officer will be able to advise you if the activity is suitable or not and if you need to take precautions.

Standard Quilt Sizes Chart: Online reference for mattress/bedding sizes. While quilt designers don't adhere to standard quilt sizes when designing bed quilt patterns (there's help for that further down on this page), bedding manufacturers tend to be a bit more consistent and do follow some general guidelines. Twin/Single, 39 x 75, 65 x 88, 71 x 101, 81 x 107. Australians use the term doona cover rather than duvet cover. These are often placed behind the standard size pillow shams as a backdrop, or on top of standard pillows as a coordinated set with a duvet cover. I'm constantly trying to work out how big to make quilts so I have done a bit of research and decided to make up a little chart in Aussie terms, this is just my guide, not a rule! I looked at many different sites and used an average of the mattress size plus a drop of 15 and an extra 7. Bed Size. Metric. Imperial. Cot. 71 x 132. 28 x 52. Single. 92 x 188.
Whether you call it a doona or a quilt, you need to know its size so that the cover you order is the most comfortable fit possible. Measure your bed covering, write the measurements down and compare them to the sizes we offer. To make larger sized quilt covers you will need to use sheeting fabric that is 240cm wide and join fabric. The sizes are: King single 160cm x 210cm cut two pieces 165cm x 225cm Double bed 180cm x 210cm cut two pieces 185cm x 225cm Queen bed (Aust) 210cm x 210cm cut two pieces 215cm x 225cm King size (Aust) 245cm 210cm cut two pieces 150cm x 225cm. However, having decided that you want to make for example a single bed quilt, you then have to decide whether you just want to cover the bed, or have an overhang on each side.
Our fitted sheets are manufactured to fit all standard beds, elasticated around each end, with generous box depth of 14 – 35. There is no right or wrong size when selecting the size for your quilt, just personal choice. One quilt that I made for a single bed (with a drop on three sides), I gave to a friend and she uses it on her queen bed. The size of a quilt depends on where you are making it for. If you want a quilt to overhang the bottom of the bed but only go to the pillow then measure from the bottom of the pillow to the bottom of the bed and add 10 to give an overhang.
Bed Linen Measurements Bed Linen Online
Emperor duvet, 290x235cm (114 inches x 92 inches approx) Bed Sizes can vary. Does anyone know which quilt size is more suitable for a king single bed – a single or double (because they don't make king single in the design I want)? The bed is for a young child, if that makes a difference. King bed sizes are already extra long at a standard of 240 centimetres. Typically, the king single is extra long and extra wide but a quilt cover for a standard double bed should fit the king single bed as well. Waterbed Super Single, 48 x 84, N/A, 68 x 86 to 66 x 92, 66 x 90. POP UPS – hiddenSize Guide Home. CLOSE X. Bed linen size guide. Duvet covers. Length, Width. Size, cm, inches, cm, inches.

Friday, 18 June 2010
After 596 entries in an ever-more popular Pot-Limit Omaha event were outdrawn and rivered down to a final table of nine, featuring none other than EastEnders star turned poker pro Michael "Beppe" Greco.
In the end Greco couldn't become the first Walford resident to claim a World Series of Poker bracelet, busting in third place at the hands of eventual winner Proulx but still taking home a tidy payday of $129,961. Fine work after starting the day as one of the short stacks.That left Proulx battling it out with LJ Klein for the gold bracelet. Though Proulx began the heads-up competition with a chip deficit he battled back and held a slim lead 45 minutes after the start of the match when the final hand occurred.Proulx called a button raise and check-called an all-spade T4J flop. The 9d turn saw another check call but this time to Proulx's 200,000 bet. The money went in on the Kh river but Klein's two pair was rapidly mucked when Proulx turned over As-Qd-Qh-2s for the tournament-winning nut flush.The full final table payouts were as follows:1 Miguel Proulx $315,3112 L.J. Klein $195,1473 Michael Greco $129,6914 Stephane Tayar $96,2435 Joerg Engels $72,2276 Karl Gal $54,7367 Trevor Pope $41,8508 Tommy Le $32,2549 Patrick Hanoteau $25,044Keep up to date with all the news from the poker world by following us on Twitter and Facebook.

Access Lifts and Ramps, a company that sells, installs, services and maintains accessibility products, was recently acquired by Peter Bruu from Mike and Deb Leary.
Bruu previously owned IV4, an information technology services company. He brings his personal desire to help people stay at home longer and his business operations and technology management experience to the 25-year-old company.
"When I first learned of the opportunity to acquire ALR, I was immediately excited because I have volunteered throughout my life to help the elderly stay in their homes longer," Bruu said. "As I began to investigate the business more, I learned that ALR often works with veterans. Being a veteran myself, it became clear that this opportunity was a great fit".
Bruu plans to modernize and streamline the customer experience and back end installation and service. ALR has already hired one new installer and is looking to hire three more in 2017.
ALR started in 1991 by the Learys as a source for helping people maintain their lifestyle at home by providing the best options available for current and future accessibility needs, such as stair lifts, wheelchair lifts, wheelchair ramps and residential elevators.

It is because of this legacy that we decided to create the NRA 1911 pistol. During its 100th anniversary in 2011, American Legacy Firearms teamed up with the National Rifle Association and produced our first NRA licensed project. Built on an Auto-Ordnance 1911A1 .45ACP, the NRA pistol is nickel plated and comes with beautiful maple grips. Engraved on the slides are maps of every conflict the 1911 has been involved in over the last 100 years. The artwork also commemorates the brave men and women who've served our country. A beautiful case is also available. With the edition number placed on the left grip, there will only be 100 made for each state. Each sale helps support the NRA in their ongoing commitment to protecting our Second Amendment rights!
Please note that several states have already sold out and we are getting ready to close this project! Call and get your pistol today before time runs out!
We make it easy for you to purchase your new NRA 1911 Pistol. Just complete the online order form below. Please complete all of the information requested with as much detail as possible.

Full Product Description
Catholicism has, on the one hand, traditionally regarded earthly life as of secondary importance--as an instrument of spiritual transformation--and, on the other, has ascribed great value to the early institutions of the church, taking great interest in temporal matters that affects its institutional concerns. Against the backdrop of this duality, the church has changed over the centuries, adapting to local and national conditions. "Catholicism and Politics in Communist Societies" surveys these local and national adaptations in their historical contexts, linking the past experience of the church to its present circumstances. Organized around themes of tradition vs. modernity, hierarchy vs. lower clergy, and institutional structure vs. grass-roots organization, this comprehensive volume presents a detailed, country-by-country portrait of the political and social status of the church today in communist and socialist settings.

HERL plans to be in attendance for the following events:
- National Disabled Veterans Winter Sports Clinic, Snowmass, CO, April 3-8, 2016
- National Veterans Wheelchair Games, Salt Lake City, UT, June 27-July 2, 2016
- NCART/RESNA Conference, Arlington, VA, July 12-16, 2016
Check our Facebook page and our News and Events pages for more information.
State of the Science Workshops
HERL and Walter Reed Army Medical Center's (WRAMC) Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation joined forces to host the first State of the Science Workshop in 2005. With the continuous support of numerous organizations, this effort has grown into an entire symposia series, bringing workshops several times a year to WRAMC. The workshops deliver to healthcare professionals the latest "state of the science" information needed to treat people with disabilities, especially returning wounded soldiers. Rehabilitation experts from the VA, Department of Defense, universities, and private industry have gathered at the workshops to lecture on topics such as polytrauma, traumatic brain injury, and regenerative medicine. A broad audience composed of civilians, government officials, laymen, patients, family members, providers, academics, industry representatives, and researchers attend the free symposia. To date we have completed over twenty symposia which covered topics of assistive technology, spinal cord injury, polytrauma, amputation, ultrasound imaging, virtual reality in rehabilitation, and sensory impairment to name a sampling. We have attracted an average of 125 people per event and offered approximately 50 individuals continuing education credits per symposium. Additionally, through video teleconferencing, we are able to reach DoD medical personnel oversees (e.g., Landstuhl) and DoD, VA, and civilian participants throughout the continental United States.
Veterans Sporting Events
HERL has conducted research at the National Veterans Wheelchair Games (NVWG) and National Disabled Veterans Winter Sports Clinic (NDVWSC) since 2000 and 2006, respectively. These sporting events help us to interact with and serve our veterans who use wheelchairs, as well as disseminate our research results, educate wheelchair users on our work, and recruit people who use wheelchairs and who live outside of Pittsburgh to participate in our research studies. Residents from Walter Reed Army Medical Center (WRAMC) also participate in this effort.

One possible answer to severe and intense mood swings could be bipolar disorder, a form of manic depression, where the sufferer can display behaviours ranging from deep depression to extreme elation or 'highs' on a frequent basis.
The Symptoms of Bipolar Disorder
It is important to distinguish between the main three elements of bipolar disorder which are: depressive symptoms, manic symptoms, and mood cycles.
Depressive Symptoms
As with many health issues, there are many symptoms to depression, and a person does not have to suffer from all of them to be depressed. Generally a depressed person will be quite miserable and pessimistic as well as:
- Variation of mood during the day. It's often worse in the morning, improving as the day goes on -but the pattern can be the other way around.
- Disturbed sleep, usually waking early and being unable to get back to sleep
- A general slowing down of thought, speech and movement
- Feelings of anxiety
- Tearfulness for no reason
- Short temper
- Lack of energy and constant exhaustion
- Inability to enjoy things
- Lack of concentration
- Difficulty making decisions
- Feeling that you're forgetful
- Negative thoughts about the future
- Feelings of guilt
- Loss of identity
- Blaming self and low self-esteem
- Feelings of hopelessness and despair
- Unrealistic sense of failure
- Loneliness, even when around others
- Becoming preoccupied with illness
- Loss of appetite and resulting loss of weight
- Reduced desire for sex
Symptoms of Mania
The symptoms of mania can include:
- elation
- short temper
- changing from short temper to elation and back again very quickly
- overactivity
- being easily distracted
- not sleeping
- overeating
- increase in sexual desire
- moving very quickly from topic to topic in conversation, making it very difficult for others to keep up
- speaking so quickly that it's difficult to understand all the words being said
- having very grandiose ideas
Then there's the cycle in which these sets of symptoms can occur. This can come in several varieties:
Mixed: it's entirely possible for a person to have many of the symptoms of mania and yet also suffer from severely depressive thoughts. This is especially the case if the person experiencing mania has insight into what's happening to them. Although the symptoms of mania can sound quite pleasant, for the person experiencing them it can feel as if their life is dangerously out of control.
Cycles: symptoms of mania can be followed by symptoms of depression in an almost regular pattern. These swings in mood can occur over a period of anything from days to months. Less commonly, some people may experience only depression or mania, but within a regular recurring pattern.
How Common is Bipolar Disorder?
Bipolar disorder effects between 1-2% of the UK population. If you have a relative with bipolar disorder then you have a higher chance of having it compared to someone who doesn't.

#TBT: A Doctor's Response to this Doctor Who Was Upset About Lean
You might remember my post from June about an emergency physician who wrote a journal article bashing "Lean" — but what he described didn't sound like Lean at all.
As I said then:
"In the article, Dr. Cotton describes the poor treatment he's received from a 40-something internal "Lean consultant" named Dean.
If what Dr. Cotton describes is true, I stand by him in his concerns.
But, there are things I'll be critical of here, about his writing and behavior."
The original post:
This Doctor is Upset About Something, But It Doesn't Really Sound Like Lean
Now, Dr. Mark Jaben, a friend of mine and an emergency physician has written a letter, co-authored with Dr. Richard MacKenzie that was published by the same journal:
Letter to the Editor: Lean is not What Makes an Organization LAME
…where "LAME" is my term for Lean As Misguidedly Executed.
The letter makes many good points, including the following:
"People are not cars! Of course not. Lean evolved from Toyota's experience, but it is really about the way people organize themselves to get work done. Lean is built upon continuous improvement and respect for people. Both are essential to overcome the inevitable tension that exists between an organization pursuing its goals and individuals doing their work. Successfully navigating this dilemma explains why Lean works, not just in assembly-line manufacturing but also in software development, legal offices, nonprofits, government, and even health care. Lean is about how people function together."
What do you think?
Check out my podcast with Dr. Jaben:

Analyst Blog
One of the leading U.S. homebuilding companies, KB Home (KBH - Free Report) recently opened a new community called Westwoods Mesa in Arvada. Located in the Denver area, the new community has four decorated model homes now open for daily tours. The community offers paired and single-family homes.
The residents of Westwoods Mesa can choose from eight one- and two-story single-family home designs and six two-story paired home floor plans. The homes can accommodate up to five bedrooms and three and a half baths. Prices of the single family homes start from low $300,000s.
The residents of Westwoods Mesa can also choose to opt for a paired home for low maintenance living. The homes can accommodate up to four bedrooms and three baths. Prices of these homes start from low $200,000s.
Westwoods Mesa is the tenth KB Home community in the metro-Denver area. Residents can enjoy activities like swimming, fishing, cycling, skating, rock climbing at the Standley Lake and the Apex Center, and access the nearby golf courses and parks.
All the homes will offer energy efficient features and will help residents save on their utility bills. The homes will also incorporate WaterSense labeled faucets and fixtures, which also help to conserve natural resources.
Though interest rates have started increasing lately, they are still below historical levels and housing is still affordable. Thus, high affordability levels, increased rentals and historically-low interest rates are driving the housing recovery. In addition, accelerating job growth and increasing consumer confidence are also boosting the demand for new homes. Supply, however, remains limited. The new communities will help KBH meet this excess demand for homes.
Owing to its operational business model KBnxt, this Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) company always begins construction only after a purchase agreement is executed. Therefore, consumers buying KB homes get the liberty to plan their homes according to their preference.
Other Stocks to Consider
Investors interested in the homebuilding sector can also consider stocks like William Lyon Homes (WLH - Free Report) , Taylor Morrison Home Corporation (TMHC - Free Report) and Lennar Corp. (LEN - Free Report) . While William Lyon and Taylor Morrison sport a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), Lennar carries a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).

Read an Excerpt
Montevideo, Uruguay, 1924: Pajarita grew up in the country and first arrived in the city as a seventeen-year-old bride. Now, her husband has not been home for days, leaving her alone with three small children and a house that has run out of food. Her friend Coco, the butcher's wife, has come over to visit.
"First of all," Coco said, pushing a hefty package into Pajarita's hands, "you're taking this meat. I don't care what you say. I know your husband's gone—the desgraciado." She sat her ample body down at Pajarita's table. Pajarita stared at the gift.
"I have no way to thank you."
Coco continued as if she hadn't heard. "Secondly: your plants. They're strong. You should sell them."
"To women in the barrio. You can start in the store, behind the counter with me. Look, once word spreads about your cures, better than a doctor and cheaper too, you'll be putting food in those boys' bellies." It had never occurred to her, but she couldn't think of a reason not to try. She took her children and a basket of leaves and roots and barks to the butcher shop. The boys resumed an epic pretend game of gauchos-in-the-campo, riding imaginary horses among the chunks of flesh that hung from the ceiling. In one corner of the room, between the chopping block and meat hooks, Pajarita arranged two small wooden stools and sat down on one. Ignazio, she thought, I want to kill you, to kiss you, to carve you like a flank; just wait and see how I'm going to live without you by my side.
Coco served as a living advertisement. Women began to come. Some of them just needed to be heard; they told sprawling, unkempt tales of death in the family, brutal mothers-in-law, financial pressures, wayward husbands, violent husbands, boring husbands, loneliness, crises of faith, visions of Mary, visions of Satan, sexual frigidity, sexual temptation, recurring dreams, fantasies involving saddles or bullwhips or hot coals. She offered them teas for comfort, luck, or protection. Other customers came with physical conditions—pain in their bones, a stitch in their side, numbness in hips, ears that rang, forgetfulness, sore knees, sore backs, sore hearts, sore feet, cut fingers, quivering fingers, wandering fingers, burns, headaches, indigestion, excessive female bleeding, a pregnancy that wouldn't come, a pregnancy that had to end, cracked bones, cracked skin, rashes no doctor could diagnose, aches no doctor could cure. There were housewives, maids, sore-handed seamstresses, sweaty-handed adulteresses, great-grandmothers swaying with canes, young girls swooning with love. Pajarita listened to them all. She sat still as an owl as she listened. Then she handed them a small package and explained what to do with its contents. Word spread. Women came to see her from all corners of the city. She could barely keep up with harvesting from cracks in the sidewalk, nearby parks, and the pots in her own house. To Coco's delight, the seekers often picked up their daily beef along with their cures. Pajarita set no price. Some gave her pesos, others fruit, a basket of bread, a ball or two of handspun wool. Anonymous gifts appeared on the Firielli doorstep—baskets of apples, jars of yerba mate,handmade clothes for the children. They had enough.
She had developed a peculiar sort of fame. Her name was whispered through the kitchens and vegetable stands of Montevideo. Pajarita, she cured me, you should go see her too. And when I almost. You saw me then. If it hadn't been for her. Strange, she thought, that all of this should grow from something as familiar as plants, such ordinary things, opening new worlds, drawing the souls and stories of this city to her doorstep, unveiling a startling thing inside her: a reach, a scope, adventures with no road map, forays into the inner realms of strangers where she roved the darkness in search of something that bucked and flashed and disappeared, slippery, evasive, untamable.
One sweltering afternoon, as a hunchbacked woman who smelled of garlic confessed her infatuation with the new priest, Pajarita felt something stir inside her body. Her mind reached in to feel. She was pregnant. A girl. She filled with the memory of conception, that final night, the clawing, Ignazio's torn and hungry skin. And he was gone. She almost imploded from the sadness.
Montevideo, Uruguay, 1938: Eva is thirteen years old. After two years of working for a shoe salesman who abused her, she has rebelled against him and her parents, found a job in a fashionable café, and begun to spend her evenings with a group of aspiring poets.
Months and years would stretch and turn and she always pined for this: these nights; smoky, electric, succulent, ineffable; the feel of the red table under her hand (chipped and glossy, sticky underneath) as the poets dreamed and joked and boasted; the way the air stretched and shimmered after her second glass of wine; the conversations that coiled intricately through war to recent essays to the deepest meaning of life. A light shone through those nights that Eva could not define, that vanished if she sought it too directly, that gilded everything it touched—voices, faces, wineglass, table, words—with numinous honey. She grew to rely on it, trusting its power to ward off all that must be kept away—drabness,
boredom, nightmares, the rage of home, the terror inside shoe stores and of Nazis in faraway lands. She was free inside its unseen sphere, and life became more possible. Surely the other poets felt it too: Joaquín, with his meticulous verses, knotted forehead, and arsenal of freshly sharpened pencils; Carlos, who smelled of shoe polish and stole moments at his father's law firm to scrawl odes on legal files; the Well-Known Poet, with his amiable laugh and unkempt gray hair; Pepe, with his pointy chin and fast martinis; Andrés, with his lucid voice, sharp thoughts, sharp smile; and Beatriz, the kind of girl whose laugh poured like molasses, whose poems brimmed with maudlin nubile shepherdesses yearning for their errant gaucho men. Eva could have borne her poems if she did not also sit so close to Andrés.
"We're changing the world, right, Andrés?" Beatriz said, twirling her hair on a slow finger.
"Poetry alone won't change the world," Andrés said. "But without it, where would we be? Stripped of mystery, passion, everything that urges us to stay awake despite the shit and pain of living. In a world full of war, we need it more than ever."
Joaquín and Carlos murmured their agreement. The Well-Known Poet nodded behind his cigarette smoke. Andrés' words mixed with the smoke, swirling around the table, imbibed on each poet's breath. In a world full of war. Eva felt the smoke and bulk of the Admiral Graf Spee within those words. It had been only a month since the German battleship had dragged its huge hard broken body into the port, seeking refuge, trailing fire and smoke and the toxic scent of battle. Uruguay was neutral. Uruguay was far from Europe. Uruguay had not been invaded the way Poland had last spring. But the Graf Spee came anyway, and so did the British ships that set it on fire. War's fingers were very long and they stretched over the Atlantic and shook up her city the way a ghost's cold fingers reach through a window and shudder you awake in your own bed. That's how it was when Eva woke to Papá in the hall telling Tomás about the Graf Spee: the smoke was thick like—well, like—a big black blanket, all over the port, and up on the crane we were coughing like crazy, and I saw the Nazis standing on deck rigid like fucking toothpicks, like everything was fine, like they were breathing air from the fucking Alps. After the German captain gave up and sank his battleship to the bottom of the river, Eva dreamed of dead wet Nazis smashing her windows and crawling into her bed, cold and dripping, cutting her with shards of glass and ship and with their fingernails.
Andrés had written a sonnet called "Graf Spee's Ghost" and it occurred to her that he might understand. She tapped his foot with hers. He smiled without looking at her.
"The things you say," she told him later on their walk home. "The way you say them. Everybody listens."
"It's just talk."
The heart of things, you touch it when you speak; somehow you shake and shift the flesh reality is made of. "It's more than that."
They walked home together every night, but never all the way to the door. They did not want to be discovered. Eva came to dread buying the family meat, because of the way Coco pinned her with doleful eyes. "What happened to that son of mine? You, Eva, tell me! He barely even lives here anymore."
We are told, Andrés wrote, that the world is made of burlap: / Coarse, enduring—when really it is gauze, / Layer upon layer, fine, fragile, infinite, / We can see our fingers through it in the light.
Montevideo, Uruguay, 1966: Salomé is fifteen years old. She has watched the nation become increasingly repressive, as well as admired the Cuban revolution from afar. Her best friend, Leona, has just led her to a clandestine meeting.
They entered a cramped dark room with no windows. Four people sat inside: Leona's sister, Anna, with her long face and gold-rimmed glasses; a young man in a starched collar; another man in his late twenties with a square face and bushy beard; and a broad, large muchacho with hair that wisped into his face, who looked older than Salomé, about seventeen. He looked familiar, but she couldn't place him, couldn't think, because they all were staring at her.
Leona motioned for her to sit down. Salomé arranged herself carefully on the freezing floor, regretting that she'd rushed out in her knee-length school skirt. She tasted the mingled breaths of six people and two oil lamps.
Bushy Beard nodded toward Leona, who closed the door.
"So," Bushy said, "you're Salomé."
She nodded. All eyes were still on her.
"She can really be trusted?"
Leona's nod was decisive.
Bushy stared at Salomé. His eyes were dark green, shaded by a ledge of brow. "What do you know about the Tupamaros?"
She cleared her throat. So here it was. "They plan to liberate Uruguay."
"Where did you hear that?"
"In the papers—"
"The papers are much less favorable."
"And my family talking."
The wisp-haired boy grinned and now she placed him, the grandson of Cacho Cassella, the magician from Abuelo's youth. Tinto Cassella. He winked at her in the low light.
Bushy continued. "What do you think about the Tupamaros?" She had rolled that question through her mind all day. "That they're important. And brave."
"What would you say to a Tupamaro if you met one?"
She saw Leona in her peripheral vision, lifting her chin, leaning forward, and Salomé could almost smell the eucalyptus, feel the stippled light of their lawn. " 'I admire what you're doing and I want to be part of it.' "
Bushy Beard was impassive. "What if that Tupa told you that liberation is only achieved by action—including force, when necessary?"
That was when she saw the guns. They almost blended into the dark walls: rifles in the corner, a pistol at Anna's knee. She'd seen guns before, on policemen, in soldiers' hands, in photos of the Cuban Revolution—but never so close, and not in the lap of a university girl, not within reach of a man giving her a test. Her body felt like a cup full of crushed ice, so tight and cold. But guns, of course, were necessary, weren't they? A dirty need that you don't want but can't ignore, like defecation. She thought of Che, luminous Che, embracing a sleek rifle in his sleep. The air hung thick, unventilated, pressing.
"I'd agree."
Bushy Beard leaned closer. "How old are you?"
"You understand what's being asked?"
"You don't think you're too young?"
He stroked his beard. He glanced around the room. "Any comments?"
Tinto raised his hand. "I know her. Our grandparents are friends. She's a good person, reliable."
Leona added, "I would trust her with my life."
"That's good," Bushy Beard said. "You may have to. Any concerns?" The room was silent.
"All in favor?"
All the members raised their hands. Leona hugged her tightly. "Welcome, friend."

This novel completely swept me away. The Invisible Mountain is really like three novels in one. It's an expansive story of three strong women, told in three parts, yet woven together. Set mostly in Uruguay, and spanning most of the 20th century, it begins with the story of Pajarita, a lost infant who mysteriously re-appears in the countryside, high in a tree, New Year's day 1900. The small town of Tucuarembo had been known for starting centuries with some sort of miracle, no matter how peculiar. "Miracles are miracles. they come unannounced and unexplained and have no guarantee of giving you what you want; and yet you take them; they are the hidden bones of ordinary life." This captivating piece of language drew me in to Pajarita's story, and the author's poetic prose carried me through Pajarita's marriage at 16 to an Italian immigrant, their move to the burgeoning Uruguayan city of Montevedio, the birth of her three children, and her discovery of inner strength when her husband fell short of providing for the family. When her daughter Eva's story began, I was sad. How could I possibly be drawn in to her story as much as I had been to Pajarita's? But I was drawn in, maybe even more so, as much by the author's beautiful verse as by another fiercely independent woman's story. Then came Eva's daughter, Salome, and the epic tale of this Uruguayan family continued. Each of these woman grew up in different times. Each faced her own tragedies, endured her own betrayals, buried her own secrets. Each loved and lost and found her strength in different ways. Yet they all shared a common bond of family, of womanhood and motherhood, of history and of stories passed down through generations that sustained them in the darkest of times. As a sweeping historical, this novel weaves in key events of the 20th century -- World Wars, economic recessions, the rise of communism, revolutions and revolts, the power of democracy -- all from the perspective of this small, hopeful, South American country. I got lost in time and in a different culture, drinking bitter mate tea passed in a traditional gourd, gulping red wine at 3 a.m. in a backroom bar, breathing cigarette smoke in the humid breeze of the La Rambla river. This is a book that will inhabit my thoughts for a long time. It is full of small miracles and "the hidden bones of ordinary life." When my memory of it begins to fade, I will read and savor it again.
Big expectations! A book about my small and almost unknown country. It seemed thrilling at first, but then...nothing. If you've never heard from Uruguay, you won't get wiser reading this novel. The country described, the people, the cities, they don't exist, they are sheer fantasy. Tacuarembó was founded 1832. How could there be miracles at the beginnig of the 19. and 18. centuries. So, from the very start the story is fully inaccurate. So this is not Isabel Allende writing about Chile, this just a woman, who was born in the USA and writes about a country she only knows from family anecdotes. And the characters! Women in Uruguay are not this way. We've got the first divorce in Southamerica in 1907, women here are, and always were, aware of their rights, they are bold and independant. Like my grandmother, who was born in a small town near Tacuarembó in 1893. She was a brave lady who raised nine children, six of them girls, and everyone had to study to became a teacher, a lawyer, a physician.
So I was very upset to learn that a girl like Pajarita, born in Tacuarembó, the capital city of the province, did not go to school and remained illiterate. 1876 the primary school was declared compulsory by the goverment.
So, I could write more and more, but it would be boring for the readers and in any case it is not worth the effort.
Enjoy the book if you like it, but remember, this is not real!
It's difficult to believe that this is a debut novel. The prose is exquisitely rendered but never overdone, and the characters seem to come to life on the pages.
Covering the lives of three generations of women: Pajarita, Eva, and Salome, the novel moves from Uruguay to Argentina and back again, tracing wars, revolutions and history as it traces the lives of these three fascinating women. It is well-researched and effectively transports the reader to South America.
This is a book that you can truly disappear into; I found myself almost disoriented when it was time to put the book down. To me, this is the mark of a great writer-- when the reader can truly live inside the story. A very highly recommended novel.
Wonderful imagery and insight. This author ranks up there with Anne Patchett, Barbara Kingsoler, and Alice Hoffman.
"Pajarita". In Tacuaremb, Uruguay on Jan. 1, 1900, a baby miraculously flies from the treetops to her grandmother; her name is Pajarita, the little bird. Years after the miracle, Venetian immigrant Ignazio Firielli joins a touring troupe of magicians. When he meets Pajarita, he falls in love at first sight. They marry and he takes his bride to Montevideo. However, over the years he turns to whores, gambling and drinking while she supports the family with her healing herbal elixirs.
"Eva" When their oldest daughter Eva turns ten, Ignazio removes her from school to work at the shoe shop; the owner assumes part of her duty is being raped until she flees to La Diablita restaurant where revolutionaries plot the overthrow of the decadent. Eva waits tables while writing poetry until she relocates with her friend Andres in Buenos Aires. There she marries Dr. Santos, a close associate of Peron. Eva gives birth to Roberto and Salome while writing poetry. When Argentina turns dangerously revolutionary and counter-revolutionary, she flees with her two kids back to Uruguay.
"Salome". Whereas Salome heeds her mom's revolutionary fervor, she also ignores her mom's enjoyment of the good life. She joins the Tupamaros revolutionaries who try to overthrow the Uruguayan dictatorship, but fail. Salome and others are incarcerated and tortured with no hope for the future until after years of imprisonment she is freed and Montevideo is not the same as her memories.
Using three generations of females in a family, Carolina De Robertis tells a great tale of the twentieth century history of Uruguay and to a lesser degree Argentina. The story line employs pathos and humor to relate the cultural and political changes that swept across Uruguay. The three women are terrific unique protagonists who hold their part of the tres tales together as each in their way believes in a better life for herself, her loved ones, and her country. This historical fiction will be on the short lists of best historical novel of the year.

FREE Soccer Training Tips from Coerver Coaching - Signup Now!
6 Small-Sided Soccer Games - FREE eBook From Soccer Coach Weekly
How do you join La Masia soccer academy? First off, you've got to be selected by a Barcelona scout, who travel all over the world looking for the best young soccer players. And that's also a key factor, most of the players selected for La Masia are between 6-11 years old, the coaches and trainers at Barcelona are looking for young talent with great potential. Also, a majority of the players chosen for Barcelona's youth academy are from Spain and the Catalonia region, where La Masia is located. While joing or being selected to attend La Masia is extremely difficult, it is possible to attend Barcelona soccer camps, which they hold all over the world and in the United States.
La Masia was created in 1979 as the place where Barcelona could develop young soccer players, it is both a school in the academic sense and a place where young players can learn the Barcelona system and, hopefully, play for the first team one day at the Camp Nou infront of 90,000 Barca fans.
Update: Watch the 60 Minutes piece on Barcelona and La Masia.
And it seems to work. Players like Lionel Messi, Xavi Hernandez and Andres Iniesta all lived and learned at La Masia, or the farmhouse as it's called.
The idea of the youth training center and development system was proposed by Johan Cruyff, who was a product of a similar system himself, with the Ajax academy.
"Youngsters need opportunities — everyone needs time," former Barcelona player Guillermo Amor told The Associated Press. "With all conditions being equal, a homegrown player has a better chance than one who comes in from abroad. The Xavis and Iniestas took 10 years to get to where they are."
The school trains over 300 select players, with some living in La Masia houses, others in housing near the stadium, and the rest living in and Barcelona in their own housing.
The youngest players at the academy are 6 years old. Barcelona have scouts looking for players throughout Spain and the world.
As a coach, Guardiola was instrumental in improving Barcelona's youth teams and the second team. He ask for better training faciliites and helped the B team get back into the Segunda B.
Much of the success of Barcelona has been attributed to the building up of one concept of play. All young players learn the idea of total football, where players can move from one position to another. And, to the idea of one and two touch passing, which is also know as the tiki taka style of play.
"This Barcelona team is made up of a lot of people from La Masia, and that's an important factor in our success, because we know each other for such a long time." - Andres Iniesta
At the base of this is the technical ability to play one and two touch soccer and play that some way whether you're a forward or a defender. At La Masia, the players ablity on the ball is central to their development.
Some of the Barcelona's past and current players who were trained at La Masia:

Support for your New Year's resolutions
A few years ago, Shannon Wilkinson and I teamed up to teach a teleclass on how to actually do the stuff you set out to do every year. We shared the reasons resolutions don't work, and more importantly, we talked about how to change that. We gave tips and strategies and guided participants through helpful exercises so they experienced a new way of approaching their resolutions and goals.

First, what's with the "Lovey"? What are you? Thurston Howell III?Lovey, I learned those basic things long before you were born. What you see me posting is based upon the principles of those basic physics laws, just interpreted different as to the causation and definitions of forces.
Second, what makes you think that the standard interpretations need to be reworked? Weren't the Apollo missions, for example validation enough?
In other words, follow your lead, not that of the textbooks. You recommend only the basics from a book, perhaps like somebody that read one science text in tenth grade, then speculated the rest.You have allowed yourself to be mesmerized by fancy words and concepts you can't really grasp. You are a slave to the pulpit of the "science" priests. Get down to those basic physical laws and work your way back up. You will then start to grasp those concepts, and their weaknesses, instead of just worshiping them.
You are anti-education to beat the band. A hillbilly might disesteem education because he simply sees no value in it, and considers it a waste of time.Evidence for this being a slave to them is displayed by you quite often, automatically assuming anyone who claims to have a degree is speaking absolute truth. Your fawning over them and blind acceptance more than shows your desire to advance within their ranks. Social climbing.
But you go further. You see education as slavery, and a form of social climbing. Nice analysis.
I don't think you can have ten different Ph.D.s, and certainly not ten that all address the same subject.You can have 10 PhD's with 10 different takes on the same subject. Politics determines who has The Voice, not absolute knowledge.
And are we to assume that The Voice is good to have, doesn't require an education as much as skill in politics? Is this your argument against having an education? You seem to be adamantly opposed to it.

Diy Carpet Cleaning Products.
DIY Carpet Cleaning Products.
These Few Diy Carpet Cleaning Products Will Get Your Carpets So Very Much Cleaner.
If you want to clean a carpet , there are a few items which you'll find most useful. To run out and buy what you need without a little information would be unwise. For anyone who wants to clean a carpet, it's important that you know what you will be doing. Then you will have a better understanding about what carpet cleaning products you'll need for a great result.
It is my desire, to part to you, a system for carpet cleaning which always gets optimum results. Whether your carpet is almost black or just mildly soiled.
The system which I'm going to tell you about is a pre-spray and brush agitation method. For this kind of DIY carpet cleaning you will need a few simple carpet cleaning products. I'm not going to tell you that you need a load of high priced techno stuff. You'll need just a few low cost tools that you can get from almost anywhere, or click products for carpet cleaning.
How the system works, is simple. You just prepare your carpet by thoroughly vacuum cleaning. Then you treat spots and stains with the relevant solutions. The pre-spray solution will deal with most stains and is sprayed on to your carpet via a pump up pressure sprayer. All major hardware stores stock pressure sprayers. They cost anything from £10 – £1oo's. We just want a £10 cheap one for our needs.
The carpet pre-spray solution you can get from any good cleaning supplies store or janitorial supplies. While your there, get a carpet rinse solution too. These items come in 5 litre containers and cost less than £20.
Anyway, back to pre-spraying. It's a simple matter of spraying your carpets in small sections about 4 ft square. You then use a special brush which is called a Carpet Pile Brush. You get this item from your cleaning supplies store too. You won't get a Carpet Pile Brush from any other source. You must get one from a cleaning supplies store. Just ask.
Having pre-sprayed your carpet, the brush is used to agitate the pre-spray solution into your carpet pile. The soils in your carpet are loosened and separated from your carpet pile. Once you are satisfied the soils are now loose, you simply switch on the extraction machine and rinse your carpet.
Don't ever think that a small DIY carpet cleaning machine will clean a carpet thoroughly, it won't. Not without saturating the carpet. It's this system which will use less than half the average amount of water. You won't be repeatedly going over and over your carpet trying to suck out the soils. Hence, you get no over wetting.
Simply repeat the process of spray, agitate, and rinse until your done. Your carpet will dry quick and bright and you won't get re-soiling problems either. Please use the DIY Carpet Cleaning Products which I've suggested. You'll get great results if you do.
Best of luck

How To Clean Carpets At Home.
How To Clean Your Carpets At Home.
Most people believe that professional carpet cleaning is better than diy carpet cleaning. Of course this belief holds true for most folk. But how many professional carpet cleaners do you think are willing to give away their carpet cleaning secrets? And besides, would it actually be in their interests to do so?
On the market today there's all sorts of home carpet cleaning machines and most owners swear by them. They are cheap, easy to use, and convenient.

How's Health Occupations 2 going? I hope you don't mind me emailing
Mrs. ******, I'm going to cause severe pain to myself. I went for my
pre-pharmacy registration meeting back in June. I registered for my
classes and had one of the big shots at the pharmacy school check my
schedule (like I was supposed to) before I left. He said everything
was fine and worked out. I was having problems fitting in my English
101 class but I worked it out.
My dad took me up to campus yesterday to show me where my classes
were located. Before I left, I was checking out my schedule to see
what buildings my classes were in... and what do I see? My Monday
Chemistry lab OVERLAPS with my Biology class. Yes. I about cried. I
called the pharmacy department yesterday and today. There were about
three Chemistry 111 classes open but none of them work with my
schedule. I talked to Dr. Buff and he basically said I'm
screwed. All the classes are full. He's going to talk to the
Department of Math and Science, since they have the power of
overriding classes, and see if they can do anything for me. If they
can't, I have to wait until students start dropping classes.
If I have to wait that long, I'm going to drop one of the sciences.
I'm going to take some kind of elective that fits into my curriculum.
If I wait until students start dropping classes, I'm going to be
behind in some science class. I'll have to take one of my first
sciences next semester, and the second science during with summer.
Along with 2 other classes, I couldn't fit into my schedule earlier.
I could die. I still have to tell my dad. He's going to have a fit.
Mrs. ******, please make me feel better.. ?
I started crying over the phone talking to Dr. Buff. Now, my head hurts. Why, why, why? I hate this school already. .. I just want to hurt myself.
