Torrent description
File Monster v2.9.0
Using File Monster to delete files is very easy. Just mark the files you want to delete and then press "Delete" on your keyboard (or select "Delete" from the File pull-down menu). You can select just one file, select several files, or select all the files for deletion.
If you are deleting files using normal deletion methods, then you are leaving all the data in those files readily available to anyone with access to your computer! File Monster, on the other hand, completely erases and deletes files from your system -- overwriting all the data in the file to ensure that a file recovery utility will not be able to recover the file or, more importantly, the data contained in it. Erasing files with only normal methods is the equivalent of leaving your home with all its valuable possessions inside, closing the door firmly -- but not actually locking the door. Anyone with the simple knowledge of how to open a door can easily walk in: maybe they will just snoop around (look in all your drawers, inventory your medicine cabinet, rummage in closets and under your bed, etc.) -- or maybe they will take some of your possessions for their own use, or they will use the information against you! The reason your data is still readily available when you delete files with normal deletion methods is because the procedure only tells the operating system to not recognize the file as being present anymore; however, the data contained in those files has not actually been erased and, thus, anyone with a simple file recovery utility can very easily get all that data back to do with as they wish. File Monster, however, not only overwrites all the data within a file so that the data cannot be recovered, but it also overwrites the original file name with a randomly generated name and it changes the original creation date of the file -- all to further ensure your privacy. In fact, after you have erased a file with File Monster, the only thing a file recover utility could do is undelete an empty file that does not have any of your original data and that only has a non-descriptive file name and date not reflective of its original name and date. If you have files on your your system that are confidential (or just plain personal in nature) and you do not want to leave to chance that someone can easily recover the information in them after you have "deleted" them using only normal deletion methods, then File Monster will be an essential tool for your privacy

CorduroyAcid jazz group. Formed 1991. Disbanded 1997
Corduroy Biography (Wikipedia)
Corduroy are a four-piece acid jazz outfit based in London, formed around twins Ben Addison (drums/vocals) and Scott Addison (keyboards/vocals), who were previously in Sire Records act Boys Wonder (Scott had been guitarist with Boys Wonder, while Ben had been the lead vocalist). Joining the twins in the band are Richard Searle and guitarist Simon Nelson-Smith. Searle had been bass player with Doctor and the Medics, who topped the UK Singles Chart in 1986 with a cover version of "Spirit in the Sky". Searle had joined the Addison twins in the final incarnation of Boys Wonder, before the band gradually evolved into Corduroy in 1991, initially forming for a one-off New Year's Eve party.
The self-dubbed "fabric four" primarily recorded in a film soundtrack style, and many of their tracks were instrumentals. On the release of their first album Dad Man Cat, Paul Moody wrote in the New Musical Express: "Whereas the rest of the Acid Jazz roster fidget around in a world of skinny ribbed roll-necks comparing sideburn growth, Corduroy manage to swagger through the same po-faced domain with a couldn't-care-less braggadocio... Corduroy have got their collective tongue stuck firmly in someone else's cheek here and it feels staggeringly good."

Engaged Community
Embracing opportunities to make an impact.
You'll find members of the New England Law | Boston community working across a broad spectrum of research, scholarship, and professional practice, throughout the country, and around the globe. But the one place you won't find them is on the sidelines.
That's because the core characteristic that defines the spirit of this remarkable community is engagement. Faculty members are drawn to New England Law because they share a passion for teaching and a commitment to mentoring. Alumni are setting the pace among their peers in environmental justice, entrepreneurship, criminal prosecution, and international human rights. Students embrace the opportunities of the supportive and diverse environment of the New England Law community and its downtown Boston location.
New England Law has maintained an enduring and deeply held commitment to increasing diversity in the legal profession, and our 100-year history includes being founded as the first law school exclusively for women. From that proud beginning to today's coeducational campus, New England Law has been a destination for those seeking academic excellence as they blaze their own path.
The faculty includes distinguished scholars and practitioners who are dedicated to teaching and engaging with students. They have years of experience as successful attorneys in many disciplines, and this breadth of expertise prepares students to succeed in law school, pass the bar, and make their mark in the legal forums and locales of their choice.
New England Law's student activities include dozens of student organizations along with special programs and volunteer opportunities, through which many students enhance their experiential learning. A wide range of pro bono legal positions builds practical skills and networks that can lead to further opportunities.
This has always been a community that cherishes academic excellence and launches groundbreaking practitioners. Alumni include a civil rights hero, the Commonwealth's lieutenant governor, and the U.S. Department of the Treasury's comptroller of the currency.
When you step on campus, you feel the energy. When you meet with professors, you sense the commitment. When you talk with students and alumni, you hear the passion.

I can definatly say that I spent around 6-7 hours Googling and finding different pages but of course they all lacked a point. Some limited themselves with a simple code to create a button and congetulated you on your first program in C++. This portal is the only one that i found so far with complete continues steps from a complete 0 to something to be proud off, and an activity of community members is pleasing too. So here is my simple thanks for dedicating your time and energy to a good cause, I will certainly try to achieve something with community too and put my share in. Cheers! :)

SeaWorld rejects "Blackfish" filmmakers' challenge to debate movie
SAN ANTONIO — A public challenge issued by filmmakers behind the controversial documentary "Blackfish" to debate the film was rejected Friday by SeaWorld.
The Oceanic Preservation Society along with the filmmakers behind the film challenged the theme park to debate claims made in the film that SeaWorld has publicly refuted.
"We welcome an open and honest discussion with SeaWorld," read a release from the Oceanic Preservation Society and the "Blackfish" filmmakers. "There are millions of families across the globe who have choices about where to spend their vacation dollars. Parents want clear answers about how all aspects of the captivity industry work, including animal welfare and employee safety."
Fred Jacobs, vice president for corporate communications at SeaWorld, called the challenge "little more than a publicity stunt."
"We have no interest in helping promote a film this dishonest and manipulative," Jacobs said in an email.
The film, released last year, questions treatment of whales in captivity and the danger to trainers who perform with the orcas. Since it debuted, the park has endured public backlash. Eight performers, including Texas singer Willie Nelson, have canceled appearances, citing concerns about abuses depicted in the movie. Attendance, however, has not been affected.
Last week, the Express-News interviewed two former SeaWorld trainers who were involved in the making of "Blackfish" who called the movie deceiving and sensational.
CNN, which produced the movie, and Magnolia Pictures, the production company for the film, declined the Express-News' request for comment for the story.
Bridgette Pirtle, a trainer at SeaWorld San Antonio who disputed the film in last week's article, said it is clear the individuals behind "Blackfish" are "on the defensive."
"It is a predictable activist move to challenge SeaWorld to a public debate forum, one that undoubtedly allow the anti-captivity speakers to further push their radical agendas," Pirtle said in a text message.
Last month, SeaWorld purchased full-page ads in many major newspapers in the country to refute claims made in the movie.

- The van then caught fire because it was parked by a gas pump, he says
At least 18 people were killed and five injured after attackers opened fire on a passenger van in Pakistan's troubled Balochistan province Friday, a senior administration official said.
Eight armed men fired on a passenger van that then caught fire because it was parked near a gas pump in the city of Khuzdar, said Mansoor Kakar, deputy commissioner for Khuzdar.
As the flames spread, four shops also caught fire, Kakar told CNN.
Kakar said that women and children were among those killed. The attackers fled the scene unharmed, he added.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack.
Pakistan's southwestern Balochistan province, which has the country's largest reserve of gas, has seen violent clashes between suspected insurgents and security forces in the past few years.

Chance at FSU?
July 07, 2013, 07:32:17 PM »
So I'm a non URM hoping to get into FSU. I am an FL resident and numbers are 3.8/154 with some decent softs working in government. So is there any hope at me getting in? Any hope at negotiating a $3k to $5k scholarship if a tier 4 offers close to a full ride or a complete full ride? I looked at lawschoolnumbers.com and saw that I may stand a chance but it is slim. Thoughts?

Lawschoolnumbers is pretty accurate, but you never know. If your a Florida resident don't forget about Floria International, which is only 12k or so a year if your a Florida resident.
Please don't get to caught up in the rankings as an attorney myself I can tell you they mean very little unless you were dealing with Harvard, Yale, Stanford, but like 98% of law students those are nto options. Bottom line is Florida State is not going to have people knocking down your doors it is a fine school, but the reality is that at any ABA school you learn the same exact thing. Your first year will consist of Torts, Contracts, Property, Civil Procedure, and Criminal Law maybe Crim Pro or Con Law instead taking the other ones in 2L. In these courses you will read Supreme Court cases and the Supreme Court does not write separate opinions for different ranked schools. You will read Palsgraff in Torts to learn proximate cause, Pennoyer v. Neff to learn notice etc.
At the end of your three years you will take Barbri or Kaplan to assist you with the Florida Bar and you will be a classroom with Miami, Florida Coastal, Florida State, Florida, Barry, and schools across the country listening to Epstein's lecture on contracts. If you pass the bar you will get a bar card and it will not list your law school rank you will have a license to practice law and what you do with that is up to you.
As an additional point remember U.S. News is a for-profit, unregulated magazine, offering an opinion so don't make a life altering choice based on it. The formula they use makes almost no sense as 60% of the ranking consists of people filling out Scrantons on a scale of 1-5 regarding schools they have never dealt with. U.S. News also ranks more than law schools New Mexico is teh best place to live
are you going to move there because they have a balloon festival? Probably not, but maybe you love balloon festivals just don't let U.S. News make a life altering decision for you.
I think FSU, Florida, and FIU are the best schools to attend in Florida based on in-state tuition. Miami, Barry, Florida Coastal, Stetson, and Nova are all three times as much per year so FIU in my mind is a way better deal, but visit all the schools and talk to professors, admins, students, and make sure the school is a fit as each school does have a culture to it and make sure it suits your style.
Congrats on taking all the steps to apply to law school and good luck.

I plan to apply to FSU, UM, FIU, Nova and St. Thomas. I think I will get close to a full rude at St. Thomas and perhaps a nice discount at FIU. Would you suggest taking these offers over FSU at resident sticker? Also, I'm not necessarily looking at rankings in making my decision. More so at bar passage and employment numbers which FSU has a major advantage over the other schools

Well one thing to careful about with scholarships is the condition that are attached. Typically it will be something alone the lines of maintaining a 3.0 GPA for your first year to maintain your full-ride for years 2 & 3. As a 0L unfamiliar with law school getting a 3.0 sounds like a piece of cake, but most schools only allow 35% of the class to have a 3.0 at the end of first year. Again as someone that was admitted to law school you and 100% of your classmates at any school will be smart, hard-working, and motivated and 100% of them on the first day think they will be in the top 10% of the class and there is no way they would not finish in the top 35%, but there is a 65% chance you will not finish in the top 35% and a 50% chance you will finish in the bottom half of the class. Nothing against you just the simple realities of law school. I think the NY times does a better job explaining the merit scholarship system than I can in this article.
. They really rip Golden Gate in this article, but this practice is done by almost every law school I am aware of.
The bottom line is whatever scholarship you receive look at the conditions and ASK QUESTIONS about it. Law school is a business and they will do whatever they can to attract you to the school and do what they can within the rules to get the scholarship removed. I don't think it is a shady practice personally and as a law student you need to really ask questions about whatever conditions there are.
As for Bar Passage and Employment Stats again I think those are highly misleading as well. If a school has a below 50% rate then an issue might be present, but the reality is passing the bar is far more up to the individual than the school. As I mentioned at any of these schools you will learn the same exact thing then enroll in Barbri or Kaplan and the bar is "f****ng hard and you have to put in probably 10 hours a day for 2 months straight and no school can force you do that it will be up to you.
The same with finding a job none of these schools will result in the red carpet being rolled out for you and it will be up to you to find a job. Honestly, most normal people I have meet from every caliber of law school in the Bay Area wind up with a legal job of some sort. I never been to Florida so maybe it is different there, but I imagine it is pretty similar to the Bay Area. Also remember the stats mean very little as they can be manipulated to no end and most importantly law grads are under no obligation to report their employment and once studying for the bar and starting out as a lawyer you will be hustling and not want to spend the time to fill out an employment survey that is voluntary.
Some people do I didn't when I graduated I meant to, but I imagine you have had many things in your life where you say I will send that Birthday Card or make that phone call and days turn into weeks turn into months and the report never gets sent in. The majority of my classmates did the same thing so these stats are not very accurate since the majority of students don't report.
So with all that you want to visit all the schools on your list and see what the conditions on scholarships are if you can have guaranteed In-State tuition that is pretty awesome as the pressure will be off. Make sure you could live in Miami , Fort Lauderdale, or Tallahassee for three years and make sure the school is a good fit for you.
Most importantly of all there is no right answer to what school to choose there is no secret at any of these schools if you graduate you will be able to take the bar exam and become a lawyer. What you do with your law license will be much more up to you than the name on your diploma.

|Cream Cheese and Hot Pepper Jelly Dip
Cream Cheese and Hot Pepper Jelly DipCream cheese covered with hot pepper jelly, is one of those non-recipe recipes really, unless you might want to make your own hot pepper jelly, but this dip is always a big hit at parties and gatherings so give it a try at your next gathering and see how your guests react.
Now you can go and fancy it up if you want to by scooping the cream cheese into a shaped dish and maybe putting just enough pepper jelly to just dress the top, but honestly I find it works best not to dress it up at all, but to just lay that block of cream cheese out just as it is in all of it's rectangular glory, and pretty much just dump the pepper jelly over the top and let it ooze down the sides and pool up into the bowl.
It's most readily recognized that way down South anyhow! What could be easier? Here's how to make it.
Recipe: Cream Cheese and Hot Pepper Jelly Dip©From the Kitchen of Deep South Dish
Prep time: 10 min | Yield: About 10 to 12 servings
- 1 (8 ounce) block of cream cheese, softened to room temperature
- 1 small jar of hot pepper jelly
- 2-3 sleeves of crackers
Place a bowl just big enough to accommodate a single block of cream cheese (with a little bit of wiggle room around it) into another pretty serving tray. Place the softened cream cheese in the center bowl. Loosen up the hot pepper jelly by vigorously stirring it, then slowly pour it over the top of the cream cheese, letting it pool around the cream cheese a bit. Set aside any remaining pepper jelly in the jar to replenish the dip later. Surround the cream cheese dish by laying out Ritz crackers on the outer serving tray and watch how fast this dish disappears!
Variation: Combine a can of whole berry cranberry sauce with the pepper jelly.
Cook's Notes: My Louisiana friends often make this same dip using the Pickapeppa Sauce instead of the pepper jelly, and some folks even like to put Tiger Sauce on the cream cheese block. I prefer pepper jelly for the sweet hot combination, but the Pickapeppa and Tiger Sauce are both good choices. A spicy chutney is also very good. For something totally different, try pouring a small jar of salsa or marinara sauce on top, or top with a small can of small shrimp and pour cocktail sauce over the top.
COOL TIP FOR CHRISTMAS - While the cream cheese is still cold, cut the bar in half diagonally lengthwise so that you have two triangles. Flip one around so that it forms the shape of a tree. Stick a small length of green onion in the bottom of the tree to form a stump, and use a cookie cutter to cut out a small star from a piece of yellow bell pepper for the tree topper. Spread the pepper jelly on top, sprinkle the tree with finely chopped green onion.

New rules for Mortgages-Ability to Repay
January 20, 2014 - Sylvia Heldreth
The mortgage crisis brought many problems of our mortgage lending system to light. The "ability to re-pay" rule which requires lenders to confirm a borrower's likelihood of repayment and requires that their total debt not exceed 43% of a borrower's monthly income is probably the most visible of the changes.
Some say that they should have the right to determine what portion of their income is spent on a mortgage payment and there is no need for a "big brother" in the mortgage process. Others say that the economically foolish need to be protected from themselves.

The Bengals want to win a playoff game for the first time in 23 years. Here's a look at whether their draft class will help them reach that elusive goal.
What they needed: Tackle, running back, defensive end, safety, receiver.
Who they got:
Round 1: Tyler Eifert, TE, Notre Dame.
Round 2: Giovani Bernard, RB, North Carolina.
Round 2: Margus Hunt, DE, SMU.
Round 3: Shawn Williams, S, Georgia.
Round 4: Sean Porter, OLB, Texas A&M.
Round 5: Tanner Hawkinson, OT, Kansas.
Round 6: Rex Burkhead, RB, Nebraska.
Round 6: Cobi Hamilton, WR, Arkansas.
Round 7: Reid Fragel, OT, Ohio State.
Round 7: T.J. Johnson, C, South Carolina.
Where they hit: With a growing nucleus of talented players, the Bengals could afford to go "best available" in round one. And they did, via a tight end who'll help diversify the passing game. With receiver A.J. Green attracting extra attention, Eifert (who'll wear Chad Johnson's No. 85) and tight end Jermaine Gresham will be able to find favorable matchups in the underneath zones and in the seams. Bernard likewise expands the offensive options, giving the Bengals a much-needed complement to BenJarvus Green-Ellis. By re-signing right tackle Andre Smith and systemically addressing areas of need, the Bengals could be ready to take the next step. Or two.
Where they missed: Burkhead feels like a reach in round six. He's the kind of guy they could have found among the ranks of the undrafted free agents. Still, if that's the worst thing that can be said about a 10-man draft class, it's a pretty good draft class.
Impact rookies: Eifert and Bernard could make major contributions right away. Hunt could also earn extensive playing time in the defensive line rotation, wreaking havoc as offensive lines focus on guys like Michael Johnson and Geno Atkins. And don't overlook Cobi Hamilton, a possession receiver who could earn reps across from Green — especially if Mohamed Sanu has any setbacks as he recovers from a foot injury that derailed his rookie season.
Long-term prospects: The Bengals, with two straight playoff berths in non-strike seasons for the first time in franchise history, aren't getting complacent. Marvin Lewis, one of the longest-tenured coaches in the league, seems intent on building a consistent contender. With Eifert, Bernard, and Hunt leading the class of incoming rookies, the Bengals could be poised to keep making the postseason, indefinitely.

TAZEWELL — With a minute gone in the opening quarter, Tazewell was already a touchdown ahead. With less than a minute to go in the game, Carroll County had rebounded for a big Southwest District victory.
The Cavaliers (2-2) rolled up 387 yards rushing and cruised to a 50-13 win over the battling Bulldogs (0-4) as the SWD season opened. Ulises Moreno paced CCHS with 112 yards rushing and two scores including an 80-yard scamper in the first two minutes.
Tazewell used the "M & M" combination for a pair of dramatic defensive touchdowns.
Mikal Moore plucked a bobbled Carroll football out of midair and raced 39 yards untouched for a touchdown. Andrew Murray booted the extra point to push THS ahead 7-0 at the 11:05 mark of the opening stanza.
Moreno broke loose two plays later, going 80 yards for the touchdown on the right side in front of the Cavalier stands. He then tossed a two-point conversion to Jordan Lamb. After six plays, two touchdowns were on the board. Carroll County led 8-7 with 10:05 on the first quarter clock and never trailed again.
Logan Hodges raced 47 yards for the Carroll touchdown to cap a 6-play, 68-yard drive as Moreno's PAT upped the tally to 15-7. Cavalier quarterback Blake Bowman scampered 35 yards for the next six pointer and Carroll led 22-7 at halftime.
Moreno's second touchdown came with 7:31 left in the third stanza, a 9-yard run for the second of three Cavalier TDs in the period. Jacob Mollet roared in for a 40-yard score to ignite Carroll's second-half surge. Lamb's interception on the Tazewell 42 on the next series set up Bowman's second touchdown on a first and-goal from the Bulldog 5-yard stripe. Moreno kicked yet another PAT as the Cavaliers increased the advantage to 43-7 with 1:59 left in the third quarter.
Tazewell's Shaquille McDonald capped another outstanding defensive effort when he stripped the ball from a Cavalier runner and motored all alone into the end zone with an "honor guard" of THS players trailing in his wake. McDonald carried the ball 34 yards for the score. A bad snap halted the kick try and Tazewell trailed 43-13 with 7:54 to play.
Brady Guy's 12-yard touchdown with 3:43 remaining capped the final drive of the evening and Moreno kicked the 50th point.
Mikey Wright, Carter Rasnick, steady Kyle Sheets, Moore, and Nick Goad were among the better Bulldog defenders and Jalen Jordan recovered a fumble for Tazewell.
Bowman completed four passes for 64 yards (32 to Logan Hodges and 32 to Mollet) while Tazewell's Cody McCann totaled 45 yards through the air on four completions. John Walker (16 yards), Moore (15 yards) and Jalen Jordan (3 catches for 15 yards) led the way. Moore carried 10 times for
46 yards for the Bulldogs.
Bowman had 94 yards on nine carries and two scores.
Carroll County.......8 14 21 7––50

Michelle Rafferty, Publicity Assistant
Recently Tim Parsons, Professor of African History at Washington University and author of Rule of Empires: Those Who Built Them, Those Who Endured Them, and Why They Always Fall, stopped by Oxford with his wife Ann. In the following podcast Ann asks Tim a few questions about his book and what empires past can tell us about the present.
Michelle Rafferty: Today we have a special treat here at Oxford. I'm here with Tim Parsons and his wife Ann Parsons, and Ann is actually going to interview Tim. Here we go.
Ann Parsons: Your specialty is African History. What motivated you to write a book about empires worldwide?
Tim Parsons: Well in the past as a social historian of Africa I've written books about common people, which means I write about how common people live their daily lives, and in this case, in studying East Africa, I've looked at how East Africans, average people, experienced empire. And one of the things that troubled me is in the last ten years we've heard a lot about how empires can be benevolent, civilizing, how they were forces for global order and security, and how then the way to solve the problem of Saddam Hussein in Iraq and the global war on terror, was that the United States should impose an empire from above, and that this would be the way to restore order to the world. And as someone who has studied empire from the bottom up, that I see the true realities of empire, I knew from the start in 2003 that this was a very bad idea. One of the things that I felt I had to do was make this case, I had to actually talk about empires historically, to go back in time and to see if what I know about the British Empire in East Africa held true all the way back to the Roman Empire because that's what many of the current proponents of empire now, cite.
Ann: So then what do these historical empires tell us about the present?
Tim: Well, first of all they us that it's really a very bad idea to cite ancient civilizations as examples for modern American foreign policy. In others words, empires, if we go back 2,000 years to the Roman Empire, if we even go back to the 15th century Spanish Empire in the Americas, yes those empires did last a long time, but one of the reasons why they did is because things were very different back then. The communication was much slower, transportation was much slower, they were largely agrarian societies when literacy was not very widespread, and most identities, which means how people identified themselves, were local and confined to the village level. And in those times it was very easy to conquer many villages and then to impose rule from above. So that made these empires appear much more stable than they actually really were. And what you find out, if you at the history of empire over time, you see that the lifespan of empires gets shorter, and shorter, and shorter, to the point, as I argue in the book, that empires today don't exist.
Critics on the left of American policy in the last maybe 50 years have branded the United States as a new empire, as the new Rome because they don't like American foreign policy, because they don't like the exertion of American force around the world. And that's a problem I think, because by calling the United States an empire they are missing the true definition of empire. An empire is direct formal rule. They fail to recognize that it's not the question of whether the United States is an empire or not, it's that they should point out using empire as a model is a very bad idea because empires are no longer viable.

Contains Sulphites.
A town in the northern part of the Côte d'Or that gave its name to the Côte de Nuits. Sitting on the southern edge of the Côte de Nuits, the town is the mini commercial hub of this part of the Côte d'Or, though much less significantly so than the Côte d'Or's capital, Beaune. Many négociants are based here and the town, like Beaune, also runs its own charity auction, the Hospices de Nuits, but on a much smaller scale.The appellation Nuits-St-Georges lies both sides of the town, incorporating the vineyards of neighbouring Prémeaux-Prissey to the south. Typically Nuits-St-Georges are powerful, mineral, muscular and long-lived wines, however there is a distinct, widely accepted difference between the wines on the south side and those further north adjoinging Vosne-Romanée where the wines are silkier and more elegant, rather like those of its neighbour. There is more clay in the soil of the Prémeaux vineyards, making wines of less finesse and more prominent tannins. Nuits boasts 27 Premier Cru vineyards but no Grands Crus, perhaps because at the time of the classifications in 1930 the town's leading vigneron, Henri Gouges, who was tasked to help classify the vineyards, was too concerned of being seen to favour vineyards in which he owned parcels. However, if the crown was to go to one Les St-Georges, on the south side of Nuits, would be it. Also particularly fine in the southern Nuits-St-Georges sector are Les Cailles and Les Vaucrains, both adjacent to Les St-Georges, while Aux Murgers and Aux Boudots on the Vosne-Romanée side and Les Argillières, Clos l'Arlot, and Clos de la Maréchale in Prémeaux can make great wine. Small quantities of very rare white wine are made, too, from the Chardonnay grape, as in the Clos l'Arlot, and also from the Pinot Blanc grape in Gouges' Premier Cru Les Perrières. The town is home to a surprisingly small handful of well-reputed producers, namely Henri Gouges, Robert Chevillon, Domaine de l'Arlot, Patrice Rion, and Chauvenet, whilst there are many growers in neighbouring Vosne-Romanée who make outstanding examples of Nuits St Georges., and in Chambolle-Musigny, Freddy Mugnier is responsible for the great revival in fortunes of the spectacular Clos de la Maréchale vineyard.

Exchange Agreements
International Agreements between the University of Louisville and institutions abroad can range from informal agreements to work together in areas of common interest, with few formal commitment (the International Letter of Understanding (LOU)), to formal contracts that obligate one or both partners to perform specific actions or provide specific services to the other (International Exchange Agreement or International Program Agreement). Any department or School/College may initiate an international agreement; however, it is advisable to consult with the International Center to ensure that the correct templates are being used and that proposed programs are viable.

The 2010 Hope College women's cross country season holds great promise thanks to a pre-season roster that is highlighted by a solid group of returning veterans.
The 2010 Hope College women's cross country season holds great promise thanks to a pre-season roster that is highlighted by a solid group of returning veterans.
The 2009 Flying Dutch finished second in the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association (MIAA) and sixth in the Great Lakes Regional of NCAA Division III.
Coach Mark Northuis begins his 22nd season at the helm of the Hope cross country program. Under his leadership, the Flying Dutch have finished third or higher every season in the MIAA standings. The team has been a top ten finisher at regionals six times over the past decade.
The pre-season roster of 46 athletes includes 19 returning letterwinners. There are 17 freshmen, 14 sophomores, eight juniors and seven seniors.
The tri-captains are seniors Sarah Anthony of Mt. Pleasant (Mt. Pleasant HS), Claire Bird of New Paltz, N.J. (New Paltz HS), and Emily Fischer of Naperville, Ill. (Naperville Central HS).
A year ago five Dutch received All-MIAA recognition. Honored for the second time were Emily Fischer, junior Kelly Lufkin of Houghton (Houghton HS), senior Susan Savasky of Berkley (Marion HS), and junior Karly Sikma of Grand Rapids (North Pointe Christian HS). A first-time honoree was sophomore Taylor Mattarella of Traverse City (Traverse City Central HS) who was also named the team's Rookie of the Year and later in the year received All-MIAA honors in track.
Hope's top five finishers at the Great Lakes Regional all return - Emily Fischer, junior Kate Nelson of Williamston (Williamston HS), Taylor Mattarella, sophomore Katie Martin of Portage (Portage Central HS), and Claire Bird.
Other returning letterwiners include junior Alyssa Ambrose of Okemos (Okemos HS), senior Kate Brundige of Vicksburg (Vicksburg HS), junior Salome Emmanuel of Wheaton, Ill. (Wheaton North HS), junior Katrina Gobrogge of Napoleon, Ohio (Archbold HS), sophomore Sharon Hecker of Grandville (Grandville HS), junior Chelsea Holicki of Coldwater (Coldwater HS), sophomore Morgan McCardel of Traverse City (St. Francis HS), senior Elle Munoa of Holland (West Ottawa HS), junior Gina O'Brien of Saline (Saline HS), and sophomore Morgan Smith of Grand Rapids (Forest Hills Eastern HS).
The Flying Dutch also excelled in the classroom in 2009-10 receiving Team Academic All-America honors from the College Cross Country Association for the 20th consecutive year and the MIAA Team GPA award for the 12th straight year.
A highlight on the schedule will occur late in the season when Hope hosts the NCAA Division III Great Lakes Regional championship on Saturday, Nov. 13, at the West Ottawa Golf Course.

A police car with flashing blue lights would drive slowly toward the cemetery, leading a line of cars with headlights on. It was a signal for other motorists to pull over and wait for the procession to pass.
For about a century, police departments in Arkansas towns have provided escorts for funeral processions.
A police car with flashing blue lights would drive slowly toward the cemetery, leading a line of cars with headlights on. It was a signal for other motorists to pull over and wait for the procession to pass.
But cities sometimes outgrow small-town traditions.
Only four of Arkansas' 10 largest cities still provide the service - Fayetteville, Rogers, Bentonville and Pine Bluff.
Springdale was the most recent city to abandon the service.
Springdale Police Chief Kathy O'Kelley made the decision last month, saying the practice of escorting funerals was dangerous to police officers and motorists.
Motorists can pass safely through an intersection on a red light only when a police officer is there directing traffic, O'Kelley said. There are 18 stoplights on one route across Springdale.
"I don't have the personnel on duty at one time to adequately cover those intersections," she said. "Really (the procession is) at the mercy of courteous drivers. ... Twenty years ago you had far smaller communities that were a more homogenous culture, and you could do the escorts then."
Out of about 200 funerals last year in Springdale, one or two police officers provided the procession escorts most of the time, O'Kelley said.
Nationwide, police departments are banning the escorts because of safety and liability issues, O'Kelley said. Young people sometimes don't know about the custom of stopping for a funeral procession, she said, and daytime running lights on many cars make it more difficult to recognize a funeral procession.
Funeral homes have other options, O'Kelley said. They can hire companies that provide vehicle escorts, equip the hearse with flashing lights and use it to lead the procession, or abandon processions altogether.
Springdale funeral home directors objected to the change.
"This is the first time I've ever known of where a police presence isn't safe," said Charles C. Farmer, owner of Sisco Funeral Chapel in Springdale.
O'Kelley said she remembers only one minor accident in Springdale during a funeral procession, and that was in the 1990s.
Farmer said the decision was made without input from funeral home directors.
"Certainly without police involvement, the funeral procession itself is gone," said Farmer. "It's done with."
Kye Stokenbury, director at Memorial Funeral Home in Springdale, said advance notice of the change in policy would have given someone time to start a funeral escort business.
Stokenbury said processions across Springdale don't require a lot of personnel; they could be done with a couple of police officers who leapfrog from one intersection to the next, something the city's officers have done in the past.
But O'Kelley said the leapfrogging can be dangerous, as police cars speed around the procession to get to the next intersection to stop traffic.
It was while leapfrogging from one intersection to the next on his motorcycle that Trevor Phillips, a Tuscaloosa, Ala., police officer, died on May 21, 2011, according to the Officer Down Memorial Page, odmp.org. Phillips was attempting to pass the funeral procession when a motorist in the procession made a U-turn in front of the motorcycle, causing a collision that threw Phillips from his bike.
Fayetteville Police Chief Greg Tabor said his department will continue the escorts, which are usually done by his three motorcycle officers. Tabor said he doesn't remember an accident ever occurring in Fayetteville during a funeral procession.
"It's just not created a problem for us," he said. "I don't remember ever getting a complaint. ... I think the small amount of risk, however small it is, is worth the service it provides to the community."
Two motorcycle officers can leapfrog more nimbly from one intersection to the next than officers driving cars, Tabor said.
It costs the Fayetteville department about $13,000 per year to provide the escorts, he said. That's based on two officers working an hour during a funeral procession. There were 220 funeral processions in Fayetteville last year, he said.
Funeral processions are great for public relations, Tabor said.
"I get more positive e-mails and positive notes written to this department over funeral escorts than I do over any other thing," he said.
Nevertheless, providing the escorts is a low priority. If all officers are busy, the funeral procession will have to proceed without them, Tabor said.
Pine Bluff Police Chief Jeff Hubanks said his department has been providing police escorts ever since he arrived 28 years ago.
"It's not something we do for every funeral by any means," he said. "As far as I know, we've always done them on request."
People still pull over in Pine Bluff and let a funeral procession pass, even if it's on a four- or five-lane highway, Hubanks said.
The Jefferson County sheriff's office, where Pine Bluff is the county seat, handles more escorts, even within the city limits of Pine Bluff, Hubanks said.
Major Lafayette Woods Jr., a spokesman for the sheriff's office, said escorts are performed "solely as an expression of care and regard for the bereaved families."
"The only hazards or immediate danger to the general public is when motorists fail to yield to emergency vehicles" during a funeral procession, he said in an e-mail.
Bill Booker, president of Roller Funeral Home in Little Rock and a board member of the Arkansas Funeral Directors Association, said the topic of funeral escorts is "an emotionally charged issue."
Neither Little Rock nor North Little Rock has provided police escorts during his 33 years in the funeral home business, Booker said. Instead, families hire companies that escort the procession.
Booker said most of the escorts for Roller funerals in central Arkansas are provided by Fully Involved Motorcycle Escort Service in Little Rock. The company charges $160 for one escort and $255 for two, said Booker.
Richard Dixon, owner of Fully Involved, said off-duty police officers and firefighters often work for his company escorting funeral processions. They can use their lights and legally block intersections, he said.
Roller Funeral Home has 28 locations in 24 Arkansas cities, many of which still provide police escorts for processions.
"We're able to rely on the city and the county to provide escort cities for us in our smaller cities, rural areas," Booker said. "You could look at it like it's a public service. There's a safety element to an escort being supplied to a funeral procession.
"I always looked at it as a sign of respect," he said. "Of course, things do have to change."

The Menu: An egg-free frittata chockfull of tangy green chiles that Elizabeth prepared with one part Lucini Italia's line of Cinque e' Cinque Traditional Frittata mix, and one part, well, green chiles. Elizabeth paired this perfect brunch main with a crunchy salad comprised of chopped romaine, cucumbers, halved cherry tomatoes, and pinto beans.
The Goods: You may have noticed that we're sort of obsessed with Lucini's frittata mixes, as evidenced by the fact that we are constantly eating them. We're not sure why these mixes—free of dairy, soy, and gluten—taste so so fantastic, but from their spicy, punchy flavor to their fluffy, satisfying texture, we fear our beloved tofu scramble has officially been replaced. Oh, and if you were wondering, each serving—42 grams per VN staffer, give or take—packs a whopping nine grams of protein, officially trumping its animal-product counterpart.

Frequently Asked Questions About Public, Charter Schools
What is a charter school?
A charter school is an independently run public school granted greater flexibility in its operations, in return for greater accountability for performance. The "charter" establishing each school is a performance contract detailing the school's mission, program, students served, performance goals, and methods of assessment.
What is the difference between charter schools and other public schools?
Charter schools are public schools of choice, meaning that families choose them for their children. They operate with freedom from some of the regulations that are imposed upon district schools. Charter schools are accountable for academic results and for upholding the promises made in their charters. They must demonstrate performance in the areas of academic achievement, financial management, and organizational stability. If a charter school does not meet performance goals, it may be closed.
Are charter schools all the same?
No. Charter schools can vary a great deal in their design and in their results. Uncommon Schools creates schools based on the principles and practices that have proven successful in producing significant academic gains at high-performing urban charter public schools across the country.
Who authorizes charter schools?
This varies from state to state, depending on the state's charter law. In New York, there are three authorizers: the New York State Board of Regents, the State University of New York Board of Trustees, and local boards of education. In New Jersey, there is one authorizer, the state Commissioner of Education. In Massachusetts, the authorizer is the Board of Elementary and Secondary Education.
Who can start a charter school?
Parents, community leaders, social entrepreneurs, businesses, teachers, school districts, and municipalities can submit a charter school proposal to their state's charter authorizing entity.
Who attends charter schools? Whom do they serve?
Nationwide, students in charter schools have similar demographic characteristics to students in the local public schools. In some states, charter schools serve significantly higher percentages of minority or low-income students than the traditional public schools. Charter schools accept students by random, public lottery.
How are charter schools funded?
As public schools, charter schools are tuition-free. They are funded according to enrollment levels and receive public funds on a per pupil basis. In some states, such as Alaska, Colorado, Minnesota, and New Jersey, they receive less than 100% of the funds allocated to their traditional counterparts for school operations. In other states, such as California, additional funds or loans are made available to them. In most states, charters do not receive capital funds to support facility expenses. Charter schools are entitled to federal categorical funding for which their students are eligible, such as Title I and Special Education monies. Federal legislation provides grants to help charters to manage start-up costs.
What is a charter management organization?
Charter management organizations (CMOs), generally speaking, are organizations that contract with an individual school or schools to deliver management services. These services typically include curriculum development, assessment design, professional development, systems implementation, back-office services, teacher recruitment, and facility services. Uncommon Schools is a nonprofit CMO that contracts with individual charter school boards of trustees. Uncommon's "bottom line" is that each school achieves at the highest level. All decisions are made in the context of what is best for the individual school to ensure student achievement and outstanding academic results.
What makes the schools in Uncommon different from other schools?
Uncommon schools share the following key attributes: a college preparatory mission; high standards for academics and character; a highly structured learning environment; a longer school day and a longer school year; a focus on accountability and data-driven instruction; and a faculty of committed and talented leaders and teachers. Schools within the Uncommon network are modeled on some of the highest-performing urban public charter schools in the country.
How can I enroll my child at an Uncommon School?
Each school admits students through a random lottery. Based on legislation passed in 2007, all New York City charter schools, beginning in the 2008-9 school year, must give preference to students resident in the Community School District (CSD) in which the charter school is located. However, students who reside outside the CSD are eligible to apply and may be admitted if space permits. Please visit the individual school pages to learn more about the enrollment processes for Boston, New York City, Newark, Rochester, and Troy.
Do teachers need to be certified to work at an Uncommon school?
Certification requirements vary on a state-by-state basis. In New Jersey, all teachers must be certified, and Uncommon Schools helps teachers navigate the alternate route process to secure their teaching credentials. In New York, while the state does not require that 100% of teachers be certified at each charter school, the rules under the "No Child Left Behind" Law mean that teachers need to get their licenses with reasonable speed; Uncommon New York City is able to ensure that its teachers are enrolled in a Master's program that provides provisional certification and, more importantly, high quality training. In Massachusetts, charter school teachers must attain Highly Qualified teacher status as dictated by the "No Child Left Behind" Law by possessing a bachelor's degree and demonstrating subject matter competence in the subjects they teach; Uncommon Boston encourages teachers to get certified and assists them in this process.

When people think of high-tech or high-skill jobs, they typically think of Silicon Valley entrepreneurs and Ivy League Ph.D.s. But according to a new definition of STEM jobs — those requiring skills in science, technology, engineering or math — half of all high-skill positions are held by employees without a bachelor's degree.
A recent report by the Brookings Institution redefines STEM jobs to include those with a substantial base of technical knowledge, but not necessarily requiring a bachelor's degree. With this new perspective, high-skill jobs are not limited to advanced degrees and represent a larger part of the American middle class.
[More from 24/7 Wall St.: Countries Spending the Most on the Military]
The average STEM job available to workers without a bachelor's degree paid $53,000, 10% higher than other jobs requiring similar educational attainment. Among the eight most popular STEM jobs that do not require a college degree, six paid more than the national annual average wage of $45,230. There were nearly 500,000 people working as computer systems analysts in 2011, a position that does not require a bachelor's degree and paid $82,320, on average.
Though a four-year college degree is not a prerequisite, many of these jobs still have rigorous requirements. Most plumbers, pipefitters and steamfitters go through a four or five year apprenticeship program, which includes studying math, physics and chemistry, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). Registered nurses, by far the fastest growing STEM job that does not require a bachelor's degree, need to take courses in anatomy, chemistry and microbiology.
Jonathan Rothwell, associate fellow at the Brookings Institution and author of the report told 24/7 Wall St., "the course requirements for some of these jobs [include] things like electronics, physics, engineering, technology. There's usually some math requirement too." These workers, Rothwell added, also "have longer periods of on-the-job training" than many jobs that require a college degree.
Many sub-bachelor STEM jobs have grown fairly quickly. According to Rothwell, there has been strong growth in health care and computer systems occupations, while production occupations have been shrinking. According to BLS projections, from 2010 to 2020, the numbers of registered nurses and computer systems analysts will rise 26% and 22%, respectively. Meanwhile, the number of workers employed as machinists — or in similar occupations — is expected to rise just 7%.
[More from 24/7 Wall St.: Ten Brands That Will Disappear in 2014]
Based on figures published by the Brookings Institution's report, "The Hidden STEM Economy," 24/7 Wall St. reviewed the most popular high-skill jobs in the United States that do not require a college degree. Additional data on individual occupations came from the BLS's Occupational Outlook Handbook. Average annual wage and employment count per occupation came from the Bureau's May 2011 National Occupational Employment and Wage Estimates (OES). In identifying STEM jobs, Brookings consulted O*NET surveys to measure the level of science, technology, engineering and math knowledge required for each occupation. O*NET is a database for occupational information sponsored by the Employment and Training Administration.
These are the high-skill jobs that do not require a college degree.
8. Welders, Cutters, Solderers and Brazers
> Number of jobs: 316,290
> Average wages: $37,920
> Pct. growth 2010-2020: 15%
There are more than 300,000 workers employed in occupations that involve the joining and shaping of metal parts. The majority of such metalworkers work in manufacturing or construction. Welders and other similar professionals work in potentially dangerous environments that require protective clothing, goggles and well-ventilated work spaces for safety purposes. For high-skilled welding and soldering jobs, employers often hire workers who have been through a formal training program.
7. Plumbers, Pipefitters, Steamfitters
> Number of jobs: 349,320
> Average wages: $51,830
> Pct. growth 2010-2020: 26%
Plumbers, pipefitters and steamfitters are generally responsible for installing, maintaining and repairing pipe systems that carry liquids or gases. They work on both residential and industrial projects, and they must often be available on both nights and weekends. These professions often require multiyear apprenticeships that include on-the-job training and class work covering regulations, math, physics and chemistry. Such workers usually need only a high school diploma.
6. Machinists
> Number of jobs: 368,510
> Average wages: $40,520
> Pct. growth 2010-2020: 7%
Machinists use lathes, grinders and other tools to produce unique and often difficult-to-replace parts machine parts and must be able to operate a large variety of machines. Formal, multiyear apprenticeship programs typically require workers to have a strong understanding of math. These programs are often competitive, with apprentices having to juggle both work and technical school. Rockford, Ill., which is a major center for the manufacturing of automotive and machine parts, has a machinist-to-population ratio more than six and a half times the national rate.

5. Computer Systems Analysts
> Number of jobs: 487,740
> Average wages: $82,320
> Pct. growth 2010-2020: 22%
Computer systems analysts review an organization's computer system and help it operate more efficiently. Analysts often specialize in a particular type of computer system, and many work as consultants. While most computer systems analysts have a bachelor's degree, this is not always a requirement. Edward Snowden, the CIA and NSA analyst who is currently wanted by the United States for disclosing the existence of the NSA's surveillance operations, has a GED and no college degree. Despite this, his annual salary was $122,000, according to his employer. Major metro areas, like Austin, Washington D.C. and San Jose have very high concentrations of computer systems analysts.
4. Electricians
> Number of jobs: 512,290
> Average wages: $52,910
> Pct. growth 2010-2020: 23%
Electricians install and maintain electrical equipment in houses and buildings. Those aspiring to be electricians usually need to have a high-school diploma with at least one year of algebra. They also generally undergo a four-year apprenticeship, which involves both time in the classroom and on-the-job training. Between 2010 and 2020, the number of electrician jobs is expected to grow an additional 23%, higher than the 14% job growth for all professions.
3. Carpenters
> Number of jobs: 578,910
> Average wages: $44,330
> Pct. growth 2010-2020: 20%
Carpenters both build and repair home and building structures such as door frames and stairwells. Most carpenters learn their craft through a paid apprenticeship lasting three or four years. Apprentices must complete 144 hours of technical training, where they learn carpentry, mathematics and safety, among others skills. In addition, carpenter apprentices are expected to complete 2,000 hours of on-the-job training. Between 2010 and 2020, the number of carpenters is expected to grow by 20%, compared to 14% for all professions.
2. Automotive Service Technicians and Mechanics
> Number of jobs: 589,570
> Average wages: $38,560
> Pct. growth 2010-2020: 17%
Automotive service technicians and mechanics help repair and maintain cars and trucks. Some auto shops have technicians and mechanics that specialize in such fields as brake repairs and front-end mechanics. Many prospective technicians and mechanics come from postsecondary training programs that take anywhere from six months to a year to complete. These types of programs provide both classroom and on-the-job training. Some service technicians also obtain an associate's degree, which is sometimes sponsored by car manufacturers and dealerships. Students in these programs take courses in basic mathematics, computers and electronics, among other subjects.
1. Registered Nurses
> Number of jobs: 2,724,570
> Average wages: $69,110
> Pct. growth 2010-2020: 26%
The number of registered nurses is expected to grow by 26% between 2010 and 2020 due to an increased emphasis on preventative health care and an aging population. To complete their education, nurses can either get a bachelor's degree, an associate's degree or a diploma from an accredited nursing program. Regardless of the educational paths, students take classes in a host of subjects, including physiology, microbiology and chemistry. In Rochester, Minn., home of the Mayo Clinic, the nurse-to-population ratio is the higher than any other metropolitan area in the country.

Hotel of the Month: Park Hyatt Paris-Vendôme, France
The Park Hyatt Paris-Vendôme is located in the luxury heart of Paris
Why should I go now"
Any number of reasons: visiting Fashion Week; dropping by some dealers ahead of next month?s FIAC art fair; a series of meetings after a long, quiet summer; visiting the Franz West show at the Pompidou; or just dropping into the world?s most beautiful city now that the summer crowds of tourists have gone home and the real Parisians are back.

September can still hold some promising weather in Paris; on a warm evening, you will crave a calm, quiet, chic courtyard in the heart of the city, and nobody does this quite as well as the Park Hyatt Paris-Vendôme. Here, sheltered from any traffic noise, we love to pick at some sashimi while sipping at a glass of chilled Puligny Montrachet from the excellent 2012 vintage. Sens restaurant serves a seasonal menu using regional products
What?s the lowdown"
The Park Hyatt Paris-Vendôme is in the luxury heart of Paris, just off Place Vendôme, a diamond ring?s throw from the Rue St Honoré (where, among much else, you will find the global flagship and home of Hermes? saddlery atelier and the original store of luxury leather goods super-brand Moynat); yet its interior architecture conjures up tranquillity and space. Whiz upstairs from the cleverly interconnected, classical-contemporary series of rooms on the ground floor (surrounding that courtyard) and you are in a kind of uber-townhouse, with ...

Lost sea lion pup found high 'n' dry in California orchard
LOS ANGELES (CNN) — Up a river without a paddle.
That's the situation an adventurous California sea lion found himself in after swimming up the San Joaquin River, ending up at Mape's Ranch in Modesto, California, about a 100-mile drive from the Pacific Ocean.
"The pup traveled a mile away from the river, and surprisingly was found in the middle of one of our new baby almond orchards," said Billy Lyons, manager of the family-owned ranch. "I hope everything turns out OK."
Luckily for the sea lion — nicknamed "Hoppie" — it looks like they will.
The pup is recovering back along the coast at The Marine Mammal Center in Sausalito, California. He was underweight and malnourished when he arrived there last month but is eating well and gaining strength.
After finding Hoppie, Lyons contacted the nearby San Joaquin River National Wildlife Refuge.
Assistant wildlife refuge manager Eric Hopson arrived on site and with the help of ranch hands helped corral the sea lion into a trap, said Jack Sparks with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
Photographs provided by Sparks show Hoppie in a crate. In one, he appears to be fast asleep, nuzzled up against white towels.
Hopson then contacted The Marine Mammal Center, which agreed to take the pup. He met a representative from the center in the parking lot of a strip mall to make the hand off, Sparks said.
Hoppie is not the first California sea lion to swim up the San Joaquin River channel, according to The Marine Mammal Center.
Another sea lion — nicknamed "Chippy" — made the same journey in 2004. He was found by police officers atop a cruiser.

Can the Fed Help the U.S. Side-step a Worldwide Economic Malaise?
Markets and economists have long been obsessed with the Fed's first interest rate hike in nine years, but it seems the factors are not reciprocating positively to what the Fed is looking for. Reports on labor and emerging economies coupled with low inflation, strong dollar and falling commodity prices suggest that the US economy may not be as sound as expected.Read more

Its a wool and bamboo mix, dyed by me. 100g, it comes in at about 420 meters - plenty for a pair of socks. From a smoke and pet free home, though it does still smell a bit of grape-flavoured koolaid (my dye of choice). I might throw in some other purple-themed goodies too if I find anything worthy. In event of a tie, I'll pick one winner at random. No one who has read the thesis can enter.
Some clues to get you going:
- It includes both primary and secondary sources.
- The actual thesis content these sources support comes in at just under 100,000 words.
- My case study is this series, though I mentioned many other primary examples, and my secondary source list was much longer.
- My media studies inclined colleagues felt it was a bit citation-heavy, the litcrit types thought it was sparse.
- The photo below shows the thesis open at the page the bibliography starts. There are no appendixes after that. It is 1.5x spaced, in 11pt font on A4 paper.
- Its more than fifty, less than three thousand.
- You might as well guess something random. When I tried to guess, I was a good hundred off, and I wrote the bleeding thing.

U of Wyo Graduation 1953

I wouldn't have missed getting to read this for anything. Tender thoughts about an amazing time in your life - I love the insight, the optimism that told you it was all possible, and the example you were to all of us. So, in spite of (or because of) the years of teasing, harassment, picking on younger and older siblings, you have accomplished amazing things with your life. You are still a wonderful example of what can be accomplished when you believe you can do what you need to do. Love you lots.

I had just turned 18 - this was a major time for me because Dwight got me two jobs that allowed me to begin my college career in the fall of 1953, after working all summer. Thank you, Dwight, you really paved the way for me. (Was I ever really that young?)

Your life is the perfect example of how when you take that step into the darkness the light appears. I always knew you had grit from the beginning when you ventured to Laramie with nothing, and as I said in my story you just figured it out as you went along. I'm glad you wrote this because it's always good to remind ourselves to have that courage and faith and to believe in ourselves and what we could accomplish. You are a wonderful example to all of us.

Sisters dear, I really didn't post this to get accolades, but which are, nonetheless, wonderfully appreciated. It was just that this moment in time, on the west door of the LDS Institute, was perhaps the most significant seminal moment in my life up to that time. The odds of getting a University degree and surviving those difficult years had reached a final point. And I haven't realized just how crucial that point was until posting this picture. That is the wonder of reconnecting with our photos and our past. Thank you, but give more credit to yourselves for enduring my years of sibling abuse.

For my 2 cents worth, this is like writing something wonderful, putting it away for years and then reading it again and being not quite able to believe that you actually did it. Believe, Dwight, you did it! We are so glad that you didn't know better or that you couldn't do it.

Indian Wells 2012: A Fearsome Flu and Fresh Faces
It's been a weird few days at Indian Wells with a ferocious flu taking down scores of players, trainers, and even journalists, while new American talent has been breaking through to the final few days of action in the California heat. The stomach viruses' victim count so far is estimated at approximately 30, including stars Vera Zvonareva and Gael Monfils.
The flu's latest casualty? American wild card Jamie Hampton, 22, who couldn't deal with the cramps and fatigue. She retired during the third set versus World No. 5 Agnieszka Radwanska. It's too bad; Hampton seemed to find her game despite trailing 3-0 in the final set. She enjoyed the momentum by taking the second set 6-4. Ultimately, illness proved too much. Hampton should leave feeling proud. Ranked No. 99, she's making a serious breakthrough into the big leagues and the third-round is a quality advance. Hampton took out former World No. 1 Jelena Jankovic in round one and Jarmila Gajdosova in the second.
Said Hampton: "At the end of the second [against Radwanska] it hit me and I knew it was coming. I knew it wasn't going to be pretty." And this type of thing has happened in the past for the up-and-comer; she's suffered from cramps five times already in her young career, forcing her to quit the match. Yet she says she "hydrates and eats the right way, according to a Ticker post on Tennis.com. A visit to a specialist is in her future, which is a good call for a player who can definitely do major damage if she keeps the fuel going for further upward trajectory.
Bowing out in another close match was the No. 32 seed and New Jersey-native Christina McHale. The giant killer — think Cincinnati 2011 and my shameless self-promotion here — added Petra Kvitova to her list, taking out the World No. 3 in round two. The 18th-seeded Angelique Kerber, the surprise 2011 US Open semifinalist, however, proved to be a little too much to handle, edging past the 19-year old 6-3, 3-6, 7-6(4). McHale, although not quite as new a face as Hampton, summons the fresh and hopeful feelings of where American women's tennis is going in a time of crisis. The Williams sisters aren't getting any younger, and their typical absence at Indian Wells this week always makes it even more pronounced. Regardless, expect a top 20 ranking for McHale by the year's end (if not by the time Roland Garros rolls around).
In other WTA news, Ana Ivanovic has pushed past the stomach bug and her own insecurities, downing former World No. 1 Caroline Wozniacki in straight sets with her huge forehand. The No. 15-seeded Serb might finally be ready to go on a roll and reclaim her rightful place in the Top 10 after confidence issues sapped her game post-Roland Garros victory 2008.
On the men's side, American Ryan Harrison, 19, has advanced to the final 16. He's had huge success at Indian Wells in the past, advancing to the fourth round last year after securing a solid win over Canadian Milos Raonic (before losing to Roger Federer in straights). This year, it's been more of the same. He took out Guillermo Garcia-Lopez just like in 2011, while also claiming solid wins over Viktor Troicki and Flavio Cipolla. Up next: the No. 13 seed Gilles Simon, who's entirely beatable if Harrison can keep calm and not let the Frenchman's tricky counter-punching style unsettle his power.
