Characters belong to RenPics and Universal and all the nifty people who have a hand in Xena: Warrior Princess. You guys are amazing!
This is my rewrite to our favorite scene from "Altared States". Too many missed opportunities to work with on that one! :)
Feed the bard! I'm really new at this, so let me know if you'd like to see this expanded upon, or anything like that, because I'm pretty much experimenting right now and seeing what I can do. Your comments, any and all, are appreciated!!!
You Drive Me Crazy
By: Chickram
Copyright July 2000
Her heart pounding, Xena rushed to the side of the still figure on the cave floor. She gently turned the small blonde onto her back, pulling something soft and squishy from a loosely clinched hand. With a sigh, Xena's dark head shook as her eyes identified it as nutbread, and her nose identified it as heavily drugged.
A knowing glint in her now amused blue eyes, the warrior spoke quietly near a pink ear. "Gabrielle." She nudged her friend. "Gabrielle." She said again, this time louder. When this brought no response, Xena spoke loudly and right into the bard's ear. "Gabrielle!!"
That got a squeaky yawn from the girl, and one glazed green eye peering around with interest before coming to settle on Xena's face. "Oo... two pretty ladies... must be my lucky day." Came Gabrielle's sleepy voice, slightly rough.
With a snort, Xena replied wryly, "Use both eyes, Gabrielle."
As the young bard complied, both orbs widened considerably. "Ah! Now I just see one REALLY pretty lady. Hi there!" Gabrielle smiled. Then her eyes narrowed, and took on a look of intense concentration as one hand made a slow journey right towards Xena's unprotected right eye.
Poke. "Hey!" Xena yelped in alarm. "What do you think you're doing?"
"Wow... those are so.. so.. blue!" She squealed the last word. "Have they always been like that? It's amazing!" Gabrielle studied her subject intently.
"Uh, yeah." A nod of confirmation. "For as long as I can remember, they've been pretty much... blue." The warrior shook her head again, not quite believing this new situation. "Gabrielle... can you stand up?" First thing's first.
The pale brow furrowed. "You mean I'm not?" Gabrielle asked, puzzled.
She sighed. "Come on... up ya go... Gabrielle!" Xena looked sternly down at her companion after she slid a few inches. "You've gotta help me out here. I can't just drag you around all day."
Gabrielle just looked at her for a moment, then nodded solemnly. "Okay." She bounded upwards and stood there watching Xena and smiling a goofy little smile. "Now what?"
Xena studied the cave ceiling, considering. "Well, we've gotta get you..." She looked back at Gabrielle. "...walking." The warrior observed Gabrielle for a few moments, appreciating the sway of the tan skirt against her hips and other areas as she danced about. Then she shook her head firmly, deciding that this was not the time or place when there was so much to be done, and chased after her friend.
"Okay, Gabrielle... c'mere." Xena's hand on Gabrielle's shoulder twirled her friend around, putting her face right smack between two very warrior-like breasts.
"Whoa." Gabrielle looked up with a cheeky grin. "Now there's a view you don't get every day." She stepped back to let her eyes wander up and down the body in front of her, and then again gazed at Xena's face. "You always been so tall?" The bard asked, then suddenly dropped to her knees, examining Xena's legs. "It's these things!" She crawled around back to flip up the warrior's leather skirt. "They're so long! Ye gods... and they're strong, too... ouch!"
Xena tugged her friend back around front and pulled her to her feet. "Gabrielle, where's Iacus?"
The petite blonde shrugged. "I dunno. Where?"
Xena's eyes rolled as she sighed. "I'm asking you, Gabrielle."
"What for? I haven't seen him since he ran off a couple'a candlemarks ago. Then I just stayed here and played with my friends..." She gestured to the rocks surrounding them, "...until things got kinda dark and then you were here." Another shrug. "Heeeey... have you ever noticed that you're lots darker than I am? Why d'you s'pose that is? Maybe if I lie out in the sun for a while, I'll get to look like you. Y'think?" Gabrielle then proceeded to methodically remove the clasps holding her clothes together, until she found her hand halted by a much larger one that then moved to her shoulder and pushed her to a seated position on the floor.
"Heh. No... I don't think so, Gabrielle. Not right now. You need to listen to me, okay?" She peered at her friend. "Your eyes are still really glazed, so this stuff won't wear off for a while... until then, I need you to STAY HERE while I go find Iacus. Can you do that for me?" Xena watched Gabrielle carefully.
Who pouted. "What for? I wanna go with you. Your nice and big and lots of fun... I bet we could find all sorts of neat stuff to do together. Y'know, when I was back in Potedaia, me and the other girls used to play games with each other, where we'd see who was the best kisser and where to touch to make each other squeal... mhph." Green eyes glared at the taller woman.
Xena slowly removed her hand from her friend's mouth. "Gabrielle, stay here and you and the..." She looked at the rocks. "...others... can, um..." The warrior searched for an appropriate activity.
"Work on our song!" The girl exclaimed. "Yeah... just between you and me, the sopranos sound like cats in heat. Hey, maybe you can give em lessons? You've got such a nice voice... Xena, why don't you sing for me more often? You have no idea how often I think about you and how good your singing makes me feel..." She drifted off dreamily.
Xena's face was blank for a minute or two as she tried to digest the feelings that were coursing through her. Was this a true admission of her friend that just needed a push to get out, or were these just drugged fantasies of a girl who really had no idea what she was talking about? She sighed... there was just no time for this. Iacus needed to be found.
"Gabrielle, why don't you just take a little nap, hm?" Seeing the beginnings of another bardic pout, she rushed on. "If you do, I promise I'll help you with your song when I get back." She smiled.
Gabrielle smiled back, then looked suspicious. "Cross your heart and hope to die?"
Xena smiled crookedly and nodded. "Um.. right. C'mon, now... get up and under the blankets over there." Her hand indicated a corner that was clearly set up for Iacus to have a resting place.
Gabrielle attempted to struggle to her feet, but each time ended up on her backside.
Xena sighed yet again, and swooped down in one motion to lift her friend up and carry her over to the blankets.
Gabrielle was out in less than ten seconds, and Xena just watched her for a bit, smiling fondly at the childlike expression of peace in her slumber. Tucking the blankets under the fair chin, Xena reluctantly moved away to save the world once again.
THE END... but not really. :)

The colored triangles on the edge indicate the rows I help Kim with. The colored triangles in the center of the form indicates a missing wedge.
While Kim demonstrated the steps necessary to smash and label the wedges, we thought of creating a separate layer for the text if changes were needed. After Kim created a new layer, I
started with my portion of the labels. Coloring the core rows helped me manage and keep track of the labels.

We have had a long and snow filled winter. The black bears of Labrador are perhaps the smartest Labradorians of all. They dig into a hole or under a big old stump from a deadfall tree, make themselves comfortable, and set up housekeeping for a long winter's snooze.
More by Gary Shaw:
Time to revisit the possession regulations of brook trout in Labrador?
Bill C-71 needs to be examined
They simply sleep through the wind, the snow storms and the bitter cold temperatures oblivious to the fact that we as humans fight our way through these same conditions all winter.
Bears go into full hibernation mode. Their heart rate drops to around four beats per minute, their kidneys shut down and they go into a deep sleep. As we see them gorging on the berries and anything else that their snout guides them to as we head into fall, they are engaged in non- stop eating to put on the necessary fat required to get them through the winter. No matter what size the bear is, it will need a minimum of a 30 per cent increase in body weight from spring to fall, to get through the winter. If they don't have it, the won't wake up, they will have starved to death in their dens.
The female gives birth to her cub or cubs, twins are common, in February without even waking up. The cubs are tiny, weighing only about four ounces. Instinct helps them find their way to mom's breast. The cubs are regularly two months old before mom even wakes up to greet them.
When the bears finally wake up and get out of their den, their fat is gone, and they are hungry. Depending on the year, as we move into mid-May and toward June, these guys will be waking up. When they do, there is a process that the bear has to follow to get back to eating again. There digestive system has been shut down all winter and they have to ease back into their feeding process. They can't just simply start gorging themselves. They require at least a week or 10 days of new green growth to get their gut up and running, front end to the back. Once they get this working they are good to go; there is nothing off limits.
This is where we as humans have to accept some responsibility for the bears' behaviour. They will just carry on being bears until, through our actions, they become problem bears.
As campers, fishermen and cabin owners, it is our responsibility to not send out any special invitations to bears to join us or share our property. If we are fishing, watch where we clean any fish that we may have for a shore lunch and get rid of the guts. Don't leave any packs with a Bologna sandwich in it laying around.
If we are camping, set our camps up where we can see the area and there are no surprises for us or the bear. Keep our area clean and have our garbage and coolers stored in a location separate and secure from right under our feet.
Our cabins will be a magnet for the bears if we don't take precautions with the blatantly obvious. Don't leave any garbage laying around, keep your barbecue clean after each use and don't leave anything in the cabin when you head back to town that will leave any food smell the bears can sniff out. If you ignore these pro-active initiatives, two things can happen. You can return to your cabin the following weekend to find the door or a window, or both, torn off the cabin and a big mess inside for you to clean up. The second thing will be that a bear may end up being destroyed that wasn't necessary if we had just followed a few simple rules.
At the end of the day a bear makes his living with his nose. If we remember this and by our actions we take pro-active actions ourselves, things will work out far better for both us and the bears as we share the "Big Land."

I recently interviewed WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross before the tragic passing of his wife, Jan. During the interview, JR and I discussed this Sunday's WrestleMania pay-per-view, and what is likely to be the last match of the show, Brock Lesnar vs. WWE Universal Champion Goldberg.
"I think that Lesnar and Goldberg with the Universal title on the line is potentially an outstanding show closer," Ross admitted. "Right now, based on how the card is shaping up, it seems to me that that would be the match. When you've got a four-hour pay-per-view, you don't have to worry about match time for the main event. There's a lot of main events, first of all. It's an ensemble cast. It's not the one match [Hulk] Hogan / Warrior thing or Rock / [Steve] Austin. It's not that anymore. It may never be that again. But you've got an ensemble cast with a lot of 'main events'. That's a good show closer."
There has been a lot of preemptive criticism about the match possibly being short. JR noted that a shorter match it may not necessarily be a bad thing.
"It might even make sense logically because if you're at the end of a four-hour night, you might be emotionally invested because you know the match isn't going to last long. It don't bother me," JR said. "I [recently] interviewed Kevin Nash for my podcast and he was talking about a match he watches a lot, [Pat] Patterson and Sgt. Slaughter in a back alley brawl thing, it was called, in The Garden. And we all had watched that match, and I didn't realize because they had me hooked from the beginning. That match is only like 10 minutes long [and] what a match those guys had! So do I think that it's possible to tell a good story in 10 minutes or less? You're damn right it is, and the people that don't think that really don't understand the business.
"And also, I'll give you another spoiler, you'll see no moonsaults or probably any topés, planchas, in this match."
Ross will be in Orlando this weekend for several events and detailed his busy schedule, starting Thursday.
"I'm part of the launch party for WrestleCon on Thursday with Ric Flair and Sting. And Matt Striker, the Eddie Haskell or wrestling broadcasters, is going to do a Q&A, about 90-minute or so Q&A, I think, on Thursday with a couple of guys and myself. I've got a Friday morning gig with [Jerry] Lawler at WrestleCon. And Saturday and Sunday, I have my shows, which I'm really focusing on.
"I've made some changes on them. I've got big Tyrus, aka or formerly known as, I guess I should say, Brodus Clay, of Fox News now, God, I love this big guy - he's very talented, he's going to be our MC both days. That should be really fun. Saturday, I've got my writing partner, the acclaimed novelist, Paul O'Brien, will join Tony Schiavone and I, and we're going to ostensibly start talking about The Monday Night Wars and take Q&As of whatever they are, whatever is on your mind if you're in the audience. And Tony and I have never been on stage before to talk about The Monday Night Wars and our roles in those. And, of course, we both have experiences with Jim Crockett Promotions and Tony is one of my good friends and one of the few guys you maintain a friendship with in the wrestling business over a long period of time. It's a shame to say that and it's not me being, 'poor me'. Maybe that's the way life is in general.
"Then, on Sunday, I'm going to be joined by two great podcasters in Jim Cornette and Bruce Prichard and we're going to have the unauthorized WrestleMania pregame show. All of us have been on WrestleMania, all of us have helped write WrestleMania, produced, performed, so it's going to be a unique panel. So we're going to talk about WrestleMania and I'm sure we're going to talk about NXT the night before, the Hall Of Fame a little bit, whatever is on the audience's minds, so really two different shows, two different panels, for lack of a better term, a lot of entertainment content. Tickets start at $25 and are available at Ticketfly. So we're really excited about changing the format up, the guests that we have. And everybody bring something and it should be two really good shows to see. VIP meet and greets are at noon to two. The show starts at 2:30 and we'll be out of there around 4. And by leaving around 4 o'clock, where we are located, at Plaza LIVE, you are very quick to get to WrestleMania on Sunday. It's easy to get to the NXT on Saturday. There is a lot of time to do what you need to do after our shows in the afternoons, the matinees. So it should be fun, we're looking forward to it, it should be a fun time. That whole event is amazing and I guess all of us should thank WWE for bringing people to town because we all got the chance to pick some of their fruit."

How Disabled Are You? Is That Your Final Answer?
The Essentials
If you are disabled and are working or want to work, as a threshold matter you've got to show that you're "otherwise qualified". This means that you meet whatever the pre-determined set of criteria is for the job, and that you are able to do the "essential functions" of the job. It is up to the employer to determine what the essential functions of the job are. This is why more and more official job postings of essential tasks will include minutiae such as "must occasionally be able to lift up to 50 lb", "this job is sedentary; must be able to sit for 6-8 hours a day", etc.
In an utopian world where we could be sure that such "occasional" lifting of 50 lbs. wasn't put in the job description to exclude anyone with a severe physical disability, we could interpret this careful sifting of job tasks as a thoughtful employer informing potential applicants of all of the tasks that might arise...
In the real world, if you're hired for an office job, unless you're in charge of moving around and installing computer equipment, nobody is going to make you lift 50 lbs. Elmer Employee says, "sorry guys, I've got a bad back," and somebody else gets the move the supplies around assignment.
But, if you show up to the interview on crutches or in a wheelchair, and they've got the lifting requirement down already in the "essential functions", then they have an easy way to exclude you from the job without getting busted for discrimination. And, if you don't think this is happening every day... Well, let me know what meds you're taking.
Hidden Disability? Don't Ask, Don't Tell!
The question I get asked most often by people with hidden disabilities is whether or not they should tell any prospective employers about their disability. First of all, I say, you have no legal obligation to disclose a disability, unless and until you need to ask for an accommodation at work. Secondly, if you know you will need an accommodation/s if you get the job, don't disclose and don't ask for them until you have a firm job offer, preferably in writing. The reason for this second rule of thumb is simple -- they can't discriminate against you because you have a disability if they don't know you have one.
Some young people, who may not have ever been looking seriously for a job before, raise a question of whether or not this is dishonest. My question to them is, "do you honestly believe you can do the job?" If the answer is yes, then I don't think one is any more obligated to disclose a disability than you are your marital status or religion -- another 2 things a prospective employer can't ask you.
I Use a Wheelchair, But I Can Juggle...
So you're trying to get or keep a job and you are mitigating your visible disability like mad. Unless and until an issue arises that calls into question your ability to do the job, even if you use a wheelchair they shouldn't be asking you about your disability. If you are blind, for example, and the job involves using a computer, an interviewer may ask you how you will perform the essential functions of the job. This is your opportunity to describe your use of various assistive technology, including software such as screen readers and voice recognition software. Even though it is legally your employer's responsibility to accommodate your disability, if you can't tell them the accommodations you will need at this stage of the interview, you will most likely be dead in the water.
If you do need to request an accommodation, you will need to submit your medical documentation of your disability. The letter should give your diagnosis and then describe any functional limitations you might have, and how they might be accommodated. Be prepared to submit this letter even if you're dealing with a supervisor or an employer who seems to be nice and doesn't seem to have any kind of official process.
Quite often, the employee is put in an untenable position when dealing with the "nice" boss, because they may get offended if you try to be really businesslike about the process. However, if nothing is in writing anywhere, that nice boss can turn on a dime and say you are performing your job inadequately later. Yes, this has happened to me, and it was the worst year of my entire working life.
In addition, you might have the idea that employers who work in disability services, human services or medical services would be better about disability accommodations and about discrimination in general. You would be dead wrong. If you doubt me, ask yourself how many medical offices, doctor's offices you've been to that were less than optimally accessible. [FYI, doctors' and dentists' offices are considered "public accommodations" under the Americans With Disabilities Act, and thus are required to be accessible.]
You Become More Disabled
So you've managed to negotiate the shark infested waters, and you've gotten a job, and kept it for a while -- maybe a long while. Except that now, you, like many of us with severe disabilities, are becoming more disabled with age, or with progression of your condition.
As discussed in a prior posting, it is disadvantageous to you, in terms of how your benefits are calculated, to gradually phase yourself out of working. This is because most types of benefits are calculated on the most recent quarters worked; if you decrease your income in order to work longer, part-time, your most recent quarters may well be significantly lower than your pre-phase out income.
If you're applying for a disability retirement, SSDI and the like, you now have to prove the opposite case to the one that got you the job. You have to show that you're sooooooooooooooo disabled you can't possibly hold down any job at all. Also, the more education you have, the harder this may be to do. Because Social Security especially wants to know if you can do any job, not just the one you've been doing.
If you have a disability that is on Social Security's lists, such as multiple sclerosis or rheumatoid arthritis, it might be easier to make your case. Think of these lists as disabilities that they have vetted and found to be scientifically proven.
Prepare yourself for a drawn out process and multiple appeals. This may or may not happen to you, but chances are it won't be easy. You should also be as sure as is humanly possible on what you want -- i.e., to not work, to work full-time, to work part-time. Consider all of the issues, particularly quality of life, how much income you need, and whether you will have health care coverage of some kind, regardless of what choice you make.
In Sum...
Arguably, the civil rights laws of the last 30 years that have attempted to open up access to people with disabilities to all aspects of society -- education and employment most importantly -- have worked to a limited extent. However, the stigma and discriminatory behaviors of employers and bureauacracies are alive and well.
The civil rights movement for people with disabilities is, I believe, where the racial civil rights movement was in the 1950s and '60s. We have a very long way to go.

Great post and great blog, Teri. I made a similar post on my own blog recently (What does disability look like?).

Lots of really important information in here. Thanks so much for posting it!

Hello Teri
I have been working my way through Goldfish's list of contributions to BADD and appreciate your's. I worked briefly in employment law in UK preparing cases for Employment Tribunals, involving disability discrimination. Our two sides of the Atlantic may have different laws but the way a person with impairments has to negotiate the system, is much the same. We have to be wise, devious, clever. Your page adds to the support for us all. Many thanks. I have put a link to your page on my blog. Hope that is ok.
- Rebecca said...
So this explains the mystery of the 'must be able to lift 50 lbs' requirement I've seen lately. I wondered what that had to do with working in a card shop or as an admin.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – James Fox was named to the All-Ivy League first team on Thursday, highlighting a trio of Crimson who earned recognition from the conference's head coaches.
Fox, a two-time NCAA Qualifier, was unanimously selected to the first team at 197 lbs. Despite missing time early in the year due to injury, Fox has rebounded to go 14-7 overall, including a 5-0 record against Ivy League competition. The junior has won eight straight matches and 10 of his last 12, and has picked up four major decisions and two falls on the year. Fox is now a two-time All-Ivy League honoree, after having been named to the second team last season.
Todd Preston has burst onto the scene as a sophomore, posting a team-best 19-8 overall record with a 4-1 mark in the Ancient Eight to be named to the All-Ivy League second team at 141 lbs. The lone blemish on his league slate came in a 1-0 decision against Cornell's Mike Nevinger, a unanimous pick to the first team and currently the 11th-ranked wrestler in the country. Preston has won all six of his matches since the setback to Nevinger and 10 of his last 11 overall, and boasts two wins over nationally ranked opponents. He began his year with a second-place showing at the Keystone Classic, reached the round of 12 at the Cliff Keen Las Vegas Invite, and along the way has registered two falls and two tech-falls.
David Ng finished the dual meet schedule with an 8-8 overall record, 2-1 in the Ivy League. Ng, who was named All-Ivy League honorable mention, suffered his only league loss to Cornell's Jacob Aiken-Phillips, a unanimous pick to the first team at heavyweight. The junior competed at the Jonathan Kaloust Bearcat Open, Keystone Classic and Cliff Keen Las Vegas Invite for the Crimson, and sported a 5-3 record in dual meets.
Harvard will return to the mats next week at the 2014 EIWA Championships, being held this year at The Palestra in Philadelphia March 8-9.

VoiceFlight Systems has released a free "Connected Talker" iPad App that allows pilots to transfer flight plans from their iPads into VoiceFlight-enabled Garmin 430W or 530W GPS units.
J. Scott Merritt, president and founder of VoiceFlight, said: "The Connected Talker App can transfer an entire flight plan in seconds by generating synthetic speech that exploits the exceptional speed and accuracy of the VFS101 speech recognition system."
The Connected Talker App is available now and can be downloaded from the Apple Store at no charge. A custom audio cable (available from VoiceFlight for $25) transfers the synthetic speech to the pilot microphone jack where it is recognized by the VFS101 system. VoiceFlight's crossfill interface is used to transfer the flight plan to the GPS unit, company officials said.

Fight indoor allergies while traveling

Prevent Indoor Allergies With These Three, Key Travel TipsAnyone who suffers from chronic allergies or asthma understands that traveling can often exacerbate these health conditions. Those who suffer from allergies have learned that carefully controlling home environments in order to reduce allergens, along with following a doctor's advice regarding medication and preventative treatment are the two best methods for managing allergies, reducing symptoms and maintaining a comfortable, healthy lifestyle.
Those who suffer from chronic allergies and asthma typically take the time, effort, energy, and make the financial investment to transform their homes into allergy-free zones, free of dust mites, mold, pollen, pet dander, etc. This is why the prospect of travel; car-travel, air-travel, hotel stays, or even visiting relatives can induce feelings of apprehension and anxiety for allergy sufferers.
Fortunately, recent advancements in technology have led to many new allergy relief products that can help allergy-sufferers to fight indoor allergies while traveling. If you or someone you love suffers from chronic allergies, asthma or other breathing disorders, it will be worth your time to read the tips and recommendations outlined below to help reduce allergies indoors while traveling.
Suffer from Allergies or Asthma? Three Key Tips to Fight Indoor Allergies While Traveling:
1) Hypoallergenic Bedding: Mattress/Pillow Encasings:
Planning a trip that will involve spending nights in a hotel or staying in a guest room of a relative's home? Hypoallergenic bedding is one of the very best defenses against dust mites, mold, and even germs to help fight indoor allergies. Investing in lightweight pillow encasing and mattress encasing, which can easily be folded up to fit in a suitcase, will help you to sleep, and breathe easier, so you will wake up feeling refreshed, free from the allergy symptoms of congestion, headache or runny nose.
2) Sinus Care:
The effects of dehumidifiers, neti pots, vaporizers and nasal irrigation systems can not be under estimated. Today, small, compact and travel-friendly sinus care products are widely available. Inquire about these products at local health stores and pharmacies, or search online. Whatever it takes, do your research to find portable, lightweight products that will compliment your lifestyle and fit in to both your luggage and travel routine. These small products will be easy to pack and will be a great help to reduce and fight indoor allergies on the road.
3) Indoor Air Quality:
Air filters, purifiers and smoke eliminators are one of the best ways to reduce the effect of toxins and pollutants present in indoor air. Portable air purifiers are highly recommended for chronic allergy sufferers, and also for anyone traveling with infants. Babies, who by necessity, may spend lengthy amounts of time indoors, are particularly sensitive to airborne pollutants and impurities. The American Lung Association, the EPA and the FDA all endorse air filtration, and emphasize that a clean and well ventilated living space is key to combating allergies as well as other health issues.
Many travelers are not aware that air quality can be a particular concern in hotel rooms, as well as transportation vehicles such as airplanes and cars. Small, portable filtration systems, that can be plugged into outlets or even car cigarette lighters (DC adapters) are an ideal solution in allergy control products. They can be used for cleaning smoke, smog, mold, bacteria, dust, and pet dander from the interiors of cars or other vehicles.
Many portable filtration systems now come with both an AC and DC adapter, and can be used in vehicles as well as in common outlets in hotel rooms or other lodging accommodations. Anyone shopping for, or researching air filtration systems should look for products that can recirculate 8 to 10 room volumes per hour.

A Two-Edged Sword: The Navy as an Instrument of Canadian Foreign Policy (Carleton Library Series)By: Nicholas Tracy (author)Hardback
Up to 2 WeeksUsually despatched within 2 weeks
DescriptionIn the first major study of the Royal Canadian Navy's contribution to foreign policy, Nicholas Tracy takes a comprehensive look at the paradox that Canada faces in participating in a system of collective defence as a means of avoiding subordination to other countries. Created in 1910 to support Canadian autonomy, the Royal Canadian Navy has played an important role in defining Canada's relationship with the United Kingdom, the United States, and NATO. Initially involved with participation in Imperial and Commonwealth defence, the RCN's role shifted following the Second World War to primarily ensuring the survival of the NATO alliance and deflecting American influence over Canada. Tracy demonstrates the ways in which the Navy's priorities have realigned since the end of the Cold War, this time partnering with the US and NATO navies in global policing. Insightful, detailed, and grounded in solid historical scholarship, A Two-Edged Sword presents a complete portrait of the shifting relevance and future of a cornerstone of Canadian defence.
About AuthorNicholas Tracy, adjunct professor of history at the University of New Brunswick and member of the International Institute for Strategic Studies, is the author of fifteen books, including Britannia's Palette: The Arts of Naval Victory.

Whole Life
Whole Life is the more comprehensive policy simply because
it offers more guarantees . The premium is guaranteed to stay
level. The death benefit is always guaranteed and can increase.
The cash value of the policy is always guaranteed . In addition
dividends will be paid. Whole Life is suitable if you are
looking for guaranteed growth of your premium dollars. It
is often used as the foundation of a retirement plan.
Universal Life
Universal Life is the more affordable permanent life insurance
policy with more flexibility and fewer guarantees .
The premium can be flexible or guaranteed. The cash value
is never guaranteed since it depends on current and future
interest rates and current and future policy charges.
A change in interest rates and/or policy charges has a direct
impact on the cash value.
The death benefit can be guaranteed.
Universal Life is a great policy if you are willing to give
up some guarantees in order to get a lower premium. In addition
Universal Life insurance has a better potential of higher
cash values, which grow tax-deferred.


text: Morales's planned constitutional changes will shift power from the states to central authorities [EPA] Together the states represent about 35 per cent of Bolivia's more than 8.5 million people. A 130-member assembly in Santa Cruz, an opposition stronghold and Bolivia's wealthiest state, earlier approved an "autonomy statute" under which the state would hold on to nearly two-thirds of its tax revenues and consider establishing its own police force. Local leaders have promised a referendum in the coming months to approve the measures and the other three states have said they plan to table similar statutes. Reinforcements The government sent 400 police reinforcements to Santa Cruz this week, but denied sending soldiers. San Miguel said the government had not mobilised "a military detachment in the city of Santa Cruz". Juan Carlos Urenda, a Santa Cruz leader, said the proposed autonomy statute was not an act of secession as it recognised Santa Cruz as part of Bolivia, with the central government continuing to maintain control over foreign affairs, defence and the currency. Alvaro Garcia, the country's vice-president, appeared on national television on Thursday to address leaders of the four states, saying he feared "a catastrophic standoff" had been reached. Rich and poor The four states object to a constitutional overhaul planned by Evo Morales, the Bolivian president, which would increase his presidential powers, improve the rights of Bolivia's indigenous majority and redistribute wealth from their low-lying richer areas to the poorer heights of the Andes. In November, the country's assembly approved a draft constitution that would establish a multi-ethnic state with self-governing regions for indigenous groups. But the largest opposition party boycotted the assembly and only 153 of the assembly's 255 delegates were present at the vote. The charter, which Bolivians must approve in referendums due next year, would shift more power to central authorities at the expense of the country's nine states. Urenda described the constitution as a racist trick that would allow indigenous communities to violate the states' territorial integrity. Morales's core support, which secured him his December 2005 election victory, comes from Bolivia's poor, indigenous majority that lives primarily in the arid Andean highlands. SOURCE: Agencies

Iain MacDonald is chief executive, and Emmet O'Reilly is finance director of Weedle, which wants to do for finding a plumber what LinkedIn has done for getting in touch with chief executives and Wikipedia has for discovering entirely unexpected facts. MacDonald is pretty rich in his own right: he owned more than 20% of Perlico, an Irish broadband company which was sold for about $100m (€70m) in November 2007 to Vodafone, which would have netted him around €14m.
• What's the pitch? "To become a Wikipedia – or perhaps a LinkedIn – of skills all over the world, which will use social networks and recommendations to find people you'll trust to do particular jobs."
• Tell us about the company and the proposition. "We launched in 2009, and we expanded pretty much straight away to 16 people. We've been in beta test for about nine months but from the start of 2011 we'll be going public with it. We've already got users in 160 countries, with every sort of skill, from lawyers to facepainters.
"We help find skilled people recommended by friends – whether what you need is an accountant, nanny or childminder. You can go and look on Google for those sorts of things, but how do you know whether those are going to be any good? What Weedle does is let anyone set up a page with their skills. You can then come and search for any skill and find examples of what they've done and then see real life trusted examples of what they've done, and see who in your trusted networks might have recommended them."
"Our ambition is to catalogue all the world's human skills. It's similar to LinkedIn, but that's just for white-collar contacts."
• How important is Ireland as a market to you? "Ireland's a very small market. The majority of users are in the UK, then in the east coast of the US, and then in Singapore. There's no particular reason why, but when people join and create a skills page then they share it on their networks, which tends to encourage other people to do the same, and we think it has the potential to go viral. We're just trying to improve the user experience now. We started the business with the global market in mind. Our intention is to grow the business out of Ireland and be on a par with FourSquare or Groupon. It's a good place to be."
• How is the financial turmoil affecting you? "Zero effect. We operate in an office four miles outside Dublin, our development staff are mathematicians drawn from around Europe who came here to access the latest technology. We've got direct support from Enterprise Ireland but also from the government – we get 25% of every euro we invest in R+D back in tax rebates. And being in the EU means there's no issue with visas and bringing people from eastern Europe.
"Our funding is all angel funding – there are people in Ireland who have a lot of wealth and are looking to invest it."
• Is the property price crash and its effect on the banks affecting you? (laughs) "It means we get a great deal on office space – it's effectively free. And wage demands have come down from a couple of years ago."
• Do you think large companies' threats to move out of Ireland if the 12.5% corporation tax is raised are serious? "If it went above 25% [the EU norm] then you would see people move. Sure, 12.5% is low, but it's what the economy needs. Full [corporation tax rate] harmonisation would have an adverse effect, but if it rose to 15.5% for a few years then I don't think there would be any negative effect.
"We were talking to one of the people from Facebook over here the other day and they said the best thing about Ireland is that the people speak English. So that's why they want to be here."
• Do you think economic contraction will see graduates move abroad? "Look, California as a state has been up the swanee for the past decade – its economy is in a real mess. But that hasn't had any effect on the startups there. I don't think the narrow economy here will have an effect on individuals who want to do things in software and technology.
"One thing that might have an effect would be if personal tax rates went up to punitive levels, such as 60% to 70%, which they were until a few years ago. Now it's 41% at the top rate, though it's more like 50% when you take into account other payments."
• Where do you see yourself in five years? "With a user base in every country in the western world, and offices all over the world, but still based in Dublin, I think."

Cult action favorite Just Cause will be getting its entry into its open world grappling hook adventure in 2015. Avalanche Studios will launch Just Cause 3 for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Windows PC and will feature a Mediterranean setting for players to tether jets to trees. The news comes out as Game Informer revealed the news break as their upcoming cover story.
A very niche title in last generation's consoles, Just Cause started off as a casual open world action game that starred international spy Rico Rodriguez as he parachuted and grappling hooked across Caribbean jungles. While certainly not a flow, Just Cause gained a ton of traction thanks to the silliness of its fanbase on YouTube, especially once players really started messing with the game's ridiculous physics engine. Coupled with several sales on Steam that have brought Just Cause 2 to an extremely low buy-in price of under $3, it was the perfect game for curious gamers to just mess around in.
It is a fanbase that has continued to steadily grow, even as so much as to have a user-created mod for the game that allows for thousands of players multiplayer to just do random Just Cause level mischief. It is a mod that encapsulates the insanity that Just Cause had created a following for.
Square Enix will publish the game with Avalange Studios' teams in New York and Sweden leading development.

Mike was honoured when our son, Nathan asked him to be his best man. I already knew for quite some time that Nathan was going to ask him, because Katrina, Nathan's beautiful bride to be let me in on it. Best man pretty much sums it up. Best is best. There is good, then better, than best. That's it, there is no higher calling. You just can't do better than "best". Okay, I'll shut up now and tell you a little about this best man and why his son and two daughters might think he is the best. First of all, he is the greatest trick or treater on the planet. I can still see their little faces watching in awe as Mike shared his secrets to collecting at least twice as much candy as the other kids. They were also amazed how he could throw the insides of the pumpkin in a pan and put it in the oven and after a half hour or so, pull out a beautiful pie. He got away with the trick for a year or two until they clued in that Mike quickly made the switch when he sent them off to play…Mike still denies it. Mike played with his children at the park, and never let the ice cream guy go by without buying three cool treats, or more depending on how many friends were in tow. Sometimes he set up his own ice cream stand and with the help of our children, he would sell ice cream cones to the neighbour kids for one cent a cone…his motto was "we will not be under sold." It wasn't unusual to have ten to twenty kids lined up to place their order at our kitchen window and Jared, the boy from across the street with a dime, thinking he was going to score ten cones, but little did Jared know, Mike wasn't in it for the money. Mike was never too busy to tell a story, solve a problem or patch up a wound. Road hockey, a little baseball and kicking the soccer ball around was part of their regular routine. Mike did their homework...er, I mean helped them with their homework and skipped them (and friends) out of school to see their favourite movies. Even with mike's hectic work schedule, he managed to make most of the games, track and cross country meets, public speaking competitions, plays and school band concerts. Roller coasters and roller blades, water slides and water fights…Mike was like a big friend. Mike is still a friend, just not as big now that they are almost all grown up.
Even though Mike never followed the Dr. Spock principals of child rearing, his son and daughters think his methods were best. And to prove it, this past August, proud as punch, Mike stood beside his boy and was the best 'best man' a son could have.
Proverbs 22:6 says: Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it.

The Waste Land
Isolation from Urbanization in The Waste land
T.S. Eliot's poem The Waste Land depicts a modern society engulfed in absolute chaos and plagued by the complications of industrialization. Image clusters from the poem vividly describe littered streets overcrowded with people, while the text itself reads abruptly and harshly. Thus, Eliot's poem strongly suggests that the negative effects of industrialization and urbanization vastly outweigh the benefits. Eliot's fragmented language and discontinuous images reflect the ways in which an urbanized society circumscribes the individual's ability to communicate with others in that society.
One striking feature of Eliot's poem is the point of view from which it is told. The Waste Land contains no one single central speaker, creating a sense of disarray. Despite this, the poem reads like the interior dramatic monologue of a modern society. Eliot writes, "Unreal City,/ Under the brown fog of a winter dawn,/ A crowd flowed over London Bridge, so many,/ I had not thought death had undone so many" (Lines 60-63). The fact that the poem is not told from one specific point of view reflects the sense of disconnection Eliot is trying to portray. Here Eliot is juxtaposing different ideas, all of which, such as the...

PakoiPhone Windows Phone Rated 5 from 2 votes
Pako ver Car Chase Simulator 1.11 is the best Games Racing for iPhone Windows Phone . This iPhone Windows Phone 's Games developed by Tree Man Games Racing developed by Tree Man Games is buy and legal to use. it's have 5 rating from 2 users. More informastion about Pako you can read below :
Anyone who played the first GTA remembers that the most fun you could have was getting your wanted level all the way up and then avoiding police until you crashed. Pako: Car Chase Simulator offers JUST the highlights of this experience, forcing you to outrun cops hell-bent on running you off the road - all viewed from a glorious isometric perspective.
Get your motor runningEach of Pako: Car Chase Simulator's five areas have their own distinct look. The closed arenas are constantly turning you back on yourself, while you joyously skid and spin your way through its tight corners in your attempts to evade police.
Arenas all have their own cars perfectly matched to the environment. The car park level, for instance, has a small coupe able to dart through gaps with ease. This is offset by the freeway, where changing lanes with the heavier camper van requires careful planning.
Head out on the highwayThe controls are wonderfully simple. With the cops in hot pursuit, the peddle is constantly to the metal, leaving you to focus on weaving left and right through the housing estates, cemeteries, and squares that make up the levels.
Holding either side of the screen spins your car in the corresponding direction. The different handling of each vehicle completely changes the game's feel from area to area. So, with even the slightest touch ending your run, it is important to quickly master your ride.
The hearse is possibly the easiest car to grasp. With its slow pace and wide turning circle, trying to steer it through corridors of headstones is certainly not easy, but the area and handling are well matched to provide the most entertaining challenge possible.
On balance, it could use some form of indicator to show the approach of off-screen cars. Other than that, however, the only thing standing between you and your friend's high score is your own skill.
Looking for adventure
Pako: Car Chase Simulator's 3D isometric graphics may look basic at first glance, but they are laced with a wonderful 70s grindhouse art style. All of the game's cars are ripped straight from classic chase movies, while the title screen has the distinct feel of a poster of the era.
The music is similarly simple. Still, the synthesized music and sound effects manage to evoke all things 70s.

From tragedy came a high-tech idea -- 'smart nanny cam for horses'
REMOND, Wash. (KOMO) - Alexa Anthony throws a blanket on her horse, Elektra, for the night. It's going to be cold in the stable and she wants Elektra to be warm.
But in 2012 on Christmas night, after doing the same routine with another horse called Magic, a horse she rode in the NCAA Equestrian Finals, something horrible happened.
"He got colic, he got really sick from that, I didn't know because it was the middle of the night," said Anthony. "So we came at 8 o'clock the next morning, and it was too late."
Had she known sooner of his symptoms, she could have saved him.
"I think it took me three or four years for me to come into the stable and not start to cry," Anthony said. "I definitely lost a piece of me that day."
But from her personal tragedy rose the germ of a high-tech idea that's now called StableGuard. Think of it as a very smart nanny cam for horses.
"We use an artificial intelligence to recognize specific behavioral characteristics in our horses and notify the user only when there's critical things happening," Anthony remarked, who is now the chief executive officer of Magic AI, StableGuard's parent company.
Using a video camera mounted in a horse's stall, StableGuard works by monitoring the video stream for specific behaviors that could signal a horse is in distress such as the lack of eating or drinking or on its back against the wall or looking at its stomach, a symptom of colic.
"The temperature drops to 20 degrees and your horse doesn't have a blanket on, you would want to know that as well," said Anthony.
StableGaurd comes with digital thermometers and in the case of a horse losing its blanket in cold weather or another other unusual behavior, a distress alert is sent to the horse's owner through a mobile app and a plays a short video showing the moment of distress.
Now the horse's owner can take action or dismiss the alert without the need to sift through hours of video footage.
"The system is set up to measure the temperature in the barn and to know if the horse is wearing its blanket," said Jacob Sullivan, chief technology officer for Magic AI.
"Horse owners gave us a range of behaviors that they themselves would look for if they were able to watch their horses 24/7," said Sullivan. The startup's software patterned those behaviors into its artificial intelligence program.
"The artificial intelligence uses specifically something called machine learning to recognize horse activity and behavior from the video stream," says Sullivan.
Magic AI is the opening stages of selling StableGuard. Initially, it's being targeted to stable owners with 10 or more stalls. For a stable that size, Sullivan says the price is roughly $4 a month per horse. That includes all equipment and installation, but it also requires a minimum two-year subscription to the service.
For Anthony, she feels she now has peace of mind not just for Elektra, but for all the horses her system monitors.
"All too often bad things happen to horse owners," said Anthony. "Not only are they big financial investments for their owners, they are also pets and loved ones, they are almost like people's children."

It's been confirmed! ------------------------------------------- Dispatch has released photos of what they allege is miss A's Suzy and top actor, Lee Min Ho, on a date while in London. The photos put the two stars in the same place, at the same time and are matched together by Dispatch's investigative team. Dispatch: 'Hallyu star' Lee Min Ho and 'K-Pop star' Suzy are in love. In their love, distance meant nothing. It overcame the 8972km from Seoul to Paris and the 344km from Paris to London. (Lee Minho) When: March 10th 2:00PM Where: Incheon -> Paris What: 'Dior' photoshoot (Suzy) When: March 10th 1:00 PM Where: Incheon -> London What: All Saints photoshoot On March 10th, both Suzy and Lee Min Ho were seen at Incheon Airport. The two had seperate destinations and different schedules. However, when their schedule was done they both headed to London. Lee Min Ho's Itinerary from Paris —> London (03.13) Photoshoot and sight-seeing [Paris Marignon Hotel] (03.15) On board the Eurostar to London (03.15) Picks up Suzy at "Wardorf Hotel" and moves to the Shangri-La Hotel (03.15 – 03.17) Checks in at different times. 2 nights and 3 days of dates in London The date of their union was the 15th. Lee Min Ho had finished all his schedules and got on board the 'Eurostar' to London. At the same time Suzy had finished checking out at the Wardorf Hilton hotel where she had stayed during her photoshoot. Suzy got on Lee Min Ho's rental Mercedez Benz and the two headed to 'The Shard' where the Shangri-La hotel is. Lee Min Ho and Suzy moved discretely. They avoided people's eyes and tried to not be seen together. Suzy got off the car first and after some time Lee Min Ho exited the car as well. They also attempted to disguise themselves. Suzy wore a large hoodie over her head and Lee Min Ho covered his face with a scarf. Lee Min Ho drove the streets of London himself and enjoyed his dates with Suzy. Dispatch witnessed them on a similar date on February 25th as well. Lee Min Ho picked up Suzy and the two drove around Namsan. Lee Min Ho and Suzy had seen each other almost every day since February 23rd. When Lee Min Ho wasn't overseas for an event, they were together. And the two shared a special 3 days in Europe. Lee Min Ho showed that he is a gentleman and did not hesitate to travel 344km to see Suzy. Suzy left on the 18th and Lee Min Ho returned to Paris where he caught a plane to Korea.

Our team at Austin SEO specializes in creating websites that are not only delightful, but that focus on usability and functionality. We understand that more and more of your customers are visiting your site to find out more about your services and products. It's important that all your advertising efforts tie into your website.
Search works. Folks typically do find content applicable to the search request. From Google's perspective, delivering exceptional search results is the crown jewel of the business. Google is an excellent resource for improving your content so that your content can correctly match the search that is appropriate. Google's engineers are talented and very moved to spot and stop any attempt to game the system. Google works difficult to protect its brand and make search better. The best way to benefit from search is always to follow along with the principles of good Search Engine Optimization that are encouraged by Google and openly available.
Onsite, consider linking to your other pages by linking to them within text I usually only do this when it's not irrelevant – frequently, I'll link to pages that are important when the keyword is in the title components of both pages. I don't go in for auto-generating links at all. Google has penalized websites for using particular auto link plugins, for example, so I prevent them.
Google WILL rank your site when it crawls and indexes your site – and this categorization can have a RADICAL effect in your positions. It is important for Google to work out WHAT YOUR ULTIMATE INTENT IS – do you wish to be classified as an affiliate site made 'merely for Google', a domain name holding page or a small business website with a real intention? By being explicit with all the signs you can ensure you don't confuse Google – to show on your site you're a real company, and your INTENT is authentic – and even more notably today – FOCUSED ON SUITING A VISITOR.
That is the target of search engine optimization. So your site is ranked by the big search engines as highly as a potential which, in turn, leads to a greater volume of qualified traffic to optimize your website. Search Engine Optimization can equalize the playing field for your business whether your business is a brand new company venture trying to get noticed in a competitive field or a Fortune 500 firm. Done properly, Search Engine Optimization sets your website on the left side of the page where it gains immediate credibility with the very people that you just need to accomplish.
I used to think it may require a lot more to get a subfolder trusted than say an individual file and I guess this rocks me to use data on most websites I created (back in the time). It is 6 or half a dozen, what the actual difference is about ranking in Google, once subfolders are trusted – typically, rankings in Google are more determined by how PERTINENT or REPUTABLE a page is to a query.
The example mentioned above from the SEO Starter Guide of Google shows that anchor text is directly related to the content of the website. In the event the encompassing text discussed collection rare baseball cards then, this link would add a lot more to the destination site SEO. A list of links with Click here" would add little to the target website's SEO score.
Search engines and users reward you for intelligent, readable URLs. For readers, URLs which are shorter have a higher clickthrough rate. Search engines reward you because keywords in your URL help the search engine determine how relevant your content is to a query. URLs frequently include session IDs, sorting cards, and other machine-generated code. Some this may not be avoidable in your operation, however, if you can create human readable" URLs make the effort.
In the sphere of internet marketing, misinformation abounds, and it gets compounded exponentially by a dynamic and fast evolving world. A lot of the things you believe you know (but do not) about search-engine optimization, or SEO, may have been true a few years ago but have altered; one of the following was always a myth.
Search engine optimization or SEO is a means to optimize your website so that search engines will understand it better and give you higher ranks to sum it up. It is not unimportant since a good SEO strategy can drive more traffic to your website, site or on-line store and gain more customers, make sales and fulfill your business function.


text: I had a question for some of the fellow kitbashers here.......With all of the ideas I've had bouncing around for new customs for ALTS I keep revisiting the idea to make a BT/ALT Skyfire from a Valkyrie jet with FAST pack armor, but I would like to find a head, sizewise, that would work. I am looking to have the head be more "toon" accurate but obviously with a "new" body. I even have perfect grade gundam hands to help make the transition and have the proper jet style picked out. Any robot head style and size suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Obviously I am not opposed to doing any tweaking or reshaping to a point. Size factor needs to be right though. The head doesn't even need to be from a transformer, but a robot head of proper scale. Fire away any suggestions! Have a great night! -Gregg
