Kitchen Drawer Organizers
What does your silverware drawer look like? Designate a place for everything in your kitchen drawers with kitchen drawer organizers and utensil trays. Kitchen drawer storage designed for flatware, utensils, knives and more are available in wood, bamboo and plastic. Just measure your drawers and find the drawer or flatware organizer with the right fit. Some kitchen drawers organizers are adjustable to allow for better customization and tame even the largest utensil drawers. Keep your cutlery drawer organized with cutlery dividers. A cutlery drawer with a cutlery organizer is safer. Use an expandable cutlery tray for a more customized fit in your cutlery drawer. Use a cutlery divider for a large cutlery drawer and a narrow cutlery tray for a smaller cutlery drawer. Find more kitchen storage with

Flatware Storage & Kitchen Drawer Organizers
There is nothing more essential to kitchen drawer organization than kitchen drawer organizers, such as cutlery drawer dividers, a dish drawer organizer, or flatware trays. They prevent the simple task of locating the ice cream scoop from becoming an all out kitchen-hunt with multiple drawers being yanked open and slammed shut as you try to remember which drawer it is in. An expandable utensil organizer makes finding the ice cream scoop easier. Have you ever found yourself opening a drawer, quickly scanning its crowded and jumbled contents, going on to the next drawer, still not seeing what you are looking for, so, you end up going back to the first drawer and only after digging through the wooden spoons, tongs, and can opener in the back of the drawer do you find what you are looking for? Finally. Whew. Now your family can get on with scooping out the caramel chocolate ice cream. It's annoying to have to re-trace your steps, frustrating, trying to find what you need. Organizing those kitchen drawers, with our kitchen drawer organizers such as a 2 tier cutlery tray for one drawer, a sliverware tray for drawer number two, and additional silverware organizers for the remaining drawers, gets you that ice cream scoop with one quick flip of the drawer. Voila! Your ice cream scoop is nestled in a compartment within a bamboo adjustable tray with drawer dividers. Kitchen search made easier.
Flatware Storage: the Cutlery Tray & Other Flatware Holders
SpaceSavers is all about making your life easier with a wide selection of kitchen drawer organizers, cutlery trays, and cutlery dividers. Be sure to find just what you need for your kitchen drawers with an expandable kitchen drawer organizer, plastic cutler trays, cutlery tray inserts, and the perfect flatware organizers. We offer adjustable kitchen drawer dividers, organizers such as a flatware storage tray, and kitchen drawer organizers - wood or plastic as well as expandable organizers like a silverware divider, a cutlery drawer tray, and other custom kitchen drawer organizers. A good place to start your search for the right cutlery storage trays is to measure your drawer spaces. This will help in your decision making process as you evaluate which expandable drawer organizer trays fits best. Then, decide if you like the look of a bamboo sliverware drawer insert, a wood cutlery tray insert, or the easy to clean plastic kitchen organizers. Drawers organized save you time as well as space. If you have different sized drawers the expandable silverware dividers for drawers and an adjustable flatware organizer (drawer size doesn't matter) is a real plus if you want to move things around a bit.
Flatware Storage: the Cutlery Drawer with Kitchen Drawer Dividers
Just like a puzzle, we have expandable kitchen drawer dividers that you can mix and match to fit exactly what items you have in the drawers you have, and positioned within that drawer right where you would like them to be. A versatile kitchen utensil drawer organizer is not just great for the kitchen, but you might find yourself wanting to get a silverware organizer tray for your home or work office to use in your desk drawers. Do you have a "junk" drawer in the kitchen? A lot of us do. It serves as the catch all for odds and ends that don't seem very kitchen-like, but for some reason or another we end up using these various items in the kitchen all the time, so that is where they end up staying. You can have an easy time finding the pencil, paper, chip holder, or batteries that you like to keep in the kitchen. These adjustable kitchen drawer dividers work great for a junk drawer. If your junk drawer is really deep, we also have the perfect fitting adjustable cutlery tray, adjustable sliverware caddy, or commercial silverware holder for you. SpaceSavers sells deep drawer organizers and silverware drawer organizers that are interlocking.
Flatware Storage: the Cutlery Holder versus the Cutlery Drawer Organizer with Cutlery Trays
Once again, an expandable chrome cutlery tray is a great way to organize elsewhere. It's not just a matter of the luck of the kitchen draw. Organizer gurus can use a small silverware tray, a double tier cutlery tray, and expandable plastic kitchen drawer dividers for multiple purposes in your kitchen or other spaces that don't have to be for what they may seem to be designed for. Do you have cosmetics in your bathroom that need separating out? An expandable flatware tray can take sort and store them. How about in your desk drawers in your office? Luck of the kitchen draw? Organizers such as a fltaware tray organizer can do wonders in a desk drawer. Storage for silverware and for paperclips. A plastic silverware tray or any of our kitchen utensil trays would work great in any room. You could also try removable dividers such as a drawer flatware organizer to create separate compartments in your bathroom, kitchen, or office. The world is not going to stop spinning on its axis. Expandable kitchen utensil and cutlery drawer organizer can take care of office, bathroom, or kitchen storage needs without the world coming to a halt.
Cutlery Tray Drawer or the Drawer Cutlery Tray - Is It Really All the Same?
Knives are a bit trickier when it comes to storing them. You want to protect the knives and yourself from their sharp blades. We have a knife drawer organizer with rubber feet on the bottom, so it doesn't slide around when you try to get a knife, and it has an anti-bacterial rubber lining that holds the knives apart. So, instead of having knives on the countertop, you can free up space by placing them in your drawer. It is also a great way to child proof those knives. As long as you put a child proof locking device on the drawer, the knives will be out of sight and away from precious fingers.
Kitchen Drawer Inserts & Cutlery Trays for Drawers are Not Just for Flatware Storage: the Kitchen Drawer Organizer Ouside the Box
If you need a cutlery tray, a junk drawer organizer, a knife drawer organizer, or even a spice rack for your drawer, SpaceSavers has what you are looking for, and we will help you locate your kitchen utensil even faster if you use our kitchen drawer organizers for any of your drawer storage sorting needs.

Odds of Oral Cancer from HPV
I am concerned about the possibility of developing oral cancer. I tested HPV positive 4 years ago (positive the first year, negative (I guess dormant) the second year and positive the following 2 years). I just got my first abnormal pap this month (ASCUS) and a colposcopy was performed determining low grade lesion -waiting for biopsy results. My gynecologist will not test to determine the exact strain(s) of HPV – so now I am worried and will never know if I have strain 16 or 18 that can cause oral cancer. What are the odds of having either of these strains and getting oral cancer? I have only had 3 partners and I am 40 years old. Iâve been with my husband for 9 years – he has had 6 partners. I know other sites that state increased partners increases your odds. I have never smoked and do not drink excessively (reducing other risks for oral cancer). Thanks for your time.
I have discussed this with my gynecology-oncology colleagues. Most cervical HPV screenings look at a panel of several HPV types (9 different tumor associated strains), and as this does not currently affect our clinical decision-making.
Currently individual strains are typically not tested. For those oral (tonsil, tongue base regions) cancers that are associated with HPV, the large majority are due to HPV type 16.
Given the high frequency of HPV (various types) in the general population, and comparatively the low overall rate of oral cancer, it is thought that the rate of developing oral cancer due to having HPV infection is very low. (Some estimate that around 20% of the general population has HPV at any given time, and 70-80% risk of an individual having HPV over lifetime).
For more information:
Go to the Oral Cancer health topic.

I found particularly the "holding hands" scene before the background of the moon and Parthenon really touching (and promising for future chapters - fairly symbolic)
C238 will be very very VERY important for the progress of the story. I'm not sure that Athena will crash the party - but it's extremely likely that Hina will learn that the "witch who caused Hayate to be so warped" is actually Athena, one way or the other. I wonder how things will go from there. And no, I consider a confession fairly unlikely the way things are developing. Good
Hayate helped Hina to overcome and deal with a scar in her heart (being deserted by her parents). Part of me hopes that now, Hina will be able to help Hayate deal with his scar of guilt (the traumatic split with A-tan in the past). It would rather continue to underline the Hayate-Hina duality: How they are mostly mirrors of each other.

So would that make them foils for each other (they reflect and highlight the others' characteristics)? I'm not sure but the duality is certainly a nice touch.
It seems like it's going to play out just like the clocktower scene from Hina's brithday. They're on a balcony, holding hands, under the moon light, with a gorgeous view...seems so similar. The fact that nothing ruined it yet and that it didn't seem too lighthearted makes me think that Hayate and Hina will probably have a deep talk next chapter. Last time Hina asked Hayate about her parents and Hayate helped her to accept what happened and move on, I think now it's Hina's turn to help him with his past with Athena.
I can't help but notice that Hina's relationship with Hayate is always played muhc more romantically than anyone else. And I mean real romance not chidl-like crushes that most of the others seem to have. In some ways Ayumu is just a little girl, you can see it every time she's with Nagi (who is most likely more mature than her, scary). We already know that Hayate is attracted to mature and extraordinary girls (it never explicitly stated the last part but seriously, Athena, Maria and Hinagiku? I'd say it's definitely canon) which means that Ayumu, Nagi and just about anyone else has no chance with him. I think the Hina/Hayate end is most likely so far, when someone else (besides Athena) has a scene like the clocktower or possibly the one in the next chapter, then we'll talk.

I'm starting to like Ayumu more and more. Aside from Maria she's the only girl in Hayate's harem who actually seems somewhat mature. I think some of Hina's charm is rubbing off on her, though, in terms of Hina's whole "smile and thank people and make them blush" jig.
Plus she was wearing a shirt that said "Sexy". How can any of the girls compare to that?
Oh, and Hayate's still wearing his butler uniform during the date. What a turd. -_-

The chinese scan is up too and the joke this week is that anime version 50 episodes. If you didn't know, the chinese scan usually contain some joke on the front page. For example, Maria was asking Hayate how ios Star Ocean 4,. he reply saying the battle system is awesome but the camera angle is wierd. Then eh say o well, I will go play Street fighter IV. Anyway this link is to chinese scan

The next chapter will be indeed nice, if only it will continue with their date. It might change scenes to something else, and just show a page or two of their date.
There's not really much to discuss that differs from last week. There were no significant developments, so hopefully 248 will open new possibilities for speculation.

I can't imagine what you would do if you encountered him on the street. The only certain thing is that we would get an abrupt Athena end.
I'd like that what I said a few pages back to come true now. The part where Hina falls down and Hayate dives to save her, and then a kiss scene that's witnessed by both Athena & Nagi, .. oh and also Ayumu for even more drama.
(Athena: I see.. so you don't care about me anymore, unlike me, who thought of you for all these years...)
(Ayumu: Hina-san... I hope you will be happy together! *runs off crying*)
(Nagi: Stands there shocked, with a PSP/DS falling from her hands displaying a game over scene. Hayate... *sob*)
Spoiler for Wot?:

and yeah, I must admit Hinagiku drawn much better in this chapter, look like she received some "meat" (or may be pads?) compared to Maria she look pretty good now but still...A-Tan is better than Pettan
*Hail A-Tan big picture....NAZI style..*

oh! I already download Hatsune Miku song from Youtube and get hooked with "Hajimete no Aku", that's pretty good song, try it love it!

It seems Ayumu may get some relevance too. I approve.
All the same, hopefully, both of them will step aside once it is Athena's turn to show up again.

I think it'd be particularly amusing to see Athena spill the beans about her relationship with Hayate. Ayumu would just self-destruct on the spot.

In chap 237, hayate want to Hina has a happy dinne and when Hina tell Hayate to hold her hand ( acrophobia is really useful, is'nt it ) i see hayate smile to Hina and somehow i think he understand Hina's feeling ( hope it true, plz Hata-sensei plz ). Hayate x Hina is very different from every Hayate x .... b/c when they're tolgether they live with their true self not hide it deep in their mind.
Althought he said to himself not asked about Athena but i still think he will do it in chap 238. ^_^ ( 6 days count down from now on ). Hurry up i wanna to see more T_T.

For the last day and a half I have been hanging out in the battlegrounds quite a bit and I've gotta say, its been awesome. If you haven't tried it yet, I strongly recommend it. The build I have been playing with is http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=LZhxZVfzrgbdibIzsGo.
Admittedly, I have a pretty big advantage because I can wear 4 pieces of T6 and 4 pieces of gladiator gear, but even without the T6, prot can be very potent. I am wearing 50/50 pvp and pve gear so my resilience is only at 260, but it gives me 25.5% crit and 1839 AP unbuffed and 15.3k hp. But with talents my devastate, shield slam and heroic strike all gain another 15% crit for 40% crit on my big damage abilities.
With those kind of offensive stats I have as much burst as an arms warrior and with shockwave, imp revenge, concussion blow and imp disarm, I get a ton of control that you don't get with arms. Add in warbringer to break snares and I am also much harder to control than an arms warrior.
Before the 3.0 changes a prot warrior could usually kill any other melee class but it would take a while. Now its a joke. A prot warrior just destroys other melee. And since a prot warrior can break snares, you can kill most casters as well. The only thing that gives me trouble is well played hunters and healing priests and shaman.
I am having so much fun with it I just had to post about it. If you haven't tried it yet, you really should.

Yale Struggles Offensively In 65-51 Loss
PROVIDENCE, R.I. – A poor offensive performance doomed Yale in its Ivy League opener. The Bulldogs shot just 32.8 percent from the field and were 4-of-22 from three-point range in falling 65-51 to Brown at the Pizzitola Sports Center.
"I'm extremely disappointed with what we did offensively," said James Jones, The Joel E. Smilow, Class of 1954 Head Coach of Men's Basketball. "Our offense was stale and stagnant. We didn't move enough to get good shots."
Greg Kelley led the Bulldogs with 11 points but was the only player in double figures. Austin Morgan and Michael Grace each finished with eight, and Jeremiah Kreisberg scored six. Armani Cotton grabbed a team-high 11 rebounds.
"We have to work on spreading the court," said Morgan, who was harassed all game long by a Brown defense that came into the game second in the Ivy League in field goal percentage defense.
Sean McGonagill paced Brown (7-8, 1-0 Ivy) with 20 points. He was 8-of-15 from the field and added four assists in 38 minutes. Matt Sullivan added 13 points and Stephen Albrecht scored 11 for the Bears, who have won three straight.
It looked like Brown was going to cruise to an easy victory early in the second half. A McGonagill three-pointer gave the Bears a 49-28 lead with 14:35 left.
The Bulldogs (6-12, 0-1) then scored the next 14 points to get right back in it.
McGonagill, though, stopped the run with a big three-pointer. Yale cut it to eight on Javier Duren's layup, but the Bears answered with an 8-0 run to regain control.
The Bulldogs made four of their first six shots to start the game and led 9-6 but then went cold. Brown took advantage, using a 10-1 run to go ahead 17-10 midway through the first half. Yale pulled back within three, but the Bears stretched the lead back to nine, 33-24, at halftime.
The Bulldogs were 8-of-27 from the field in the first half, including 1-of-10 from three point range.
"We came out a little tight," said Jones, who had a number of players seeing their first significant minutes in Ivy play. "We had some open shots that we missed."
NOTES: It was Yale's bench that spearheaded the comeback in the second half. Kelley scored seven of his points during the 14-0 run, while Sam Martin hit a pair of three-pointers… The Bulldogs' reserves outscored Brown's 23-15 in the game… Yale assisted on only four of its 19 field goals… The Bulldogs grabbed 14 offensive rebounds, which led 17 second-chance points… The same two teams will play again next Saturday in New Haven. Tipoff at the John J. Lee Amphitheater is slated for 2 p.m.

Your Community
Mention the word community at CSB/SJU and you will discover a common understanding of an uncommon value. Campus visitors sense it right away. Prospective students recognize it as friendliness, but community here is more than your average chit-chat, "hi, how are you?" It is a rich and enduring experience shared among students, faculty, staff and the Benedictines who live here. In this supportive environment, students find mentors among faculty and form lifelong ties with classmates.
CSB and SJU undergraduates hail from 35 countries and 39 states. The typical new student at CSB/SJU placed among the top 15 percent of all ACT test-takers nationally.
- Meet some of our students.
- View our Fact Book for specific information about the characteristics of our 2013 class.
CSB and SJU are located six miles apart in central Minnesota, surrounded by 3,300 acres of pristine forests, prairies and lakes. The colleges are minutes away from the St. Cloud metropolitan area, with a population of more than 100,000, while Minneapolis and St. Paul are 70 miles southeast on Interstate 94.
Our Catholic character is shaped by the Benedictine communities which founded the colleges in the 19th century and continue to foster Benedictine Catholic values in the academic, spiritual and social life of the colleges.

Rap star 50 Cent and Floyd Mayweather Jr. plan to take the UFC head-on for the hearts and wallets of the next generation of fight fans, after forming a company that could dramatically shift the power-base in boxing.
In a revealing interview with News Limited Newspapers, 50 Cent outlined plans to challenge the domination of boxing promoters Golden Boy and Top Rank "immediately", with their new company TMT (The Money Team) Promotions.
Mayweather has been co-ordinating raids to sign boxing's best stars from jail - he is due to be released August 3 - with 50 Cent negotiating the deals and yesterday signing Australia's IBF featherweight champion Billy Dib to a three-year contract.
50 Cent and Billy Dib
"We want to change boxing," said 50 Cent, real name Curtis Jackson, who's amassed a $110 million fortune in the music game.
"The goal initially is to create a company by fighters, for the fighters, which breaks the traditional vibe of promoters taking advantage of fighters.
"We're going to change the demographic also, appeal to the younger demographic.
"You look at UFC and MMA, when their festivities start the place is full, whereas the tradition in boxing is you wait until the main event starts.
"We want to put on cards where there are five main event fights, where there is entertainment from start to finish, cards that command attention all over the world."
50 Cent said TMT Promotions would put on their first show in November, most likely in Las Vegas. That show would likely feature Mayweather's return to the ring.
Many disillusioned boxing fans have switched to the UFC in recent years, tired of mismatches, politics and meaningless alphabet titles, though Mayweather remains the most watched combat athlete on the planet and earns an estimated $40 million per fight.
With the undefeated Mayweather's boxing credentials, and 50 Cent's mass appeal beyond the sport, several contracted top fighters are expected to defect from GBP and Top Rank to join TMT.
"I've already had fighters say to me, 'I wish I could join [TMT] but I've got this contract'," 50 Cent said.
"To me, the options are pretty clear. You can deal with a snake in the grass, a snake in the street or you could try something new."
50 Cent has a well-known story of a tough upbringing in New York, going from teenage drug-dealer to the globe's most recognisable rap star and a successful businessman earning $100 million in a deal to market vitamin water.
"I come from a background where not everything is in your favour, but I always anticipate success, I approach things with a positive outlook," said 50 Cent in reference to his latest venture.
Sydney's Dib is the third fighter on TMT's roster, with stars Yuriorkis Gamboa and Andre Dirrell already on the books.
Andre Dirrell
"I really want to associate myself with the best possible talent, and Billy falls into that category," 50 Cent said.
"Floyd asked me to sign him, he has been watching his career and he has always been a big fan.
"When you have talent, it is important to showcase that talent."

Super-rich, sucker-punched by a "September surprise" and still stuck courting a hard-to-please conservative base while trying to connect with everyone else.
That's been the story of Mitt Romney's presidential campaign in recent weeks, but it also was the story of the 2010 California gubernatorial campaign of Meg Whitman, whom Romney hired three decades ago at the Boston-based Bain & Co. consulting firm.
For Whitman's campaign, the story ended with a crushing, 13-point defeat at the hands of Democrat Jerry Brown. That's a fate Romney desperately wants to avoid as he heads into his first debate with President Barack Obama on Wednesday.
Awash in campaign cash — in Whitman's case, a record-shattering $142 million of her own money — and their images molded by armies of consultants, both were cast by Democrats as aloof, out-of-touch rich people with hidden tax returns, offshore bank accounts and luxurious lifestyles, making it hard to convince middle-class and minority voters that they could ever understand the common American's plight.
Then both were broadsided in September with stories that reinforced those perceptions in the minds of many voters, particularly independents. Former housekeeper Nicky Diaz came forward in September 2010 charging that Whitman, who became a billionaire as eBay's CEO, had known she was an illegal immigrant and kept her on the payroll before callously dismissing her because Whitman feared the press and public would find out. In Romney's case, a video surfaced of a May fundraiser in Florida at which he bad-mouthed "47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what" because they're dependent upon government and pay no income tax.
So now the question is: Is there enough time left for Romney to turn it around where Whitman couldn't?
"None of this is likely to resolve itself in the next month and a half," said Corey Cook, who directs the University of San Francisco's McCarthy Center for Public Service and the Common Good. "He's become the worst thing you can become as a candidate: a caricature of yourself."
Obama leads Romney by 4.3 percentage points in an average of seven national polls since mid-September. Other poll averages gathered by RealClearPolitics.com show Obama ahead in every battleground state.
But Jonathan Wilcox, a longtime GOP communications consultant who wrote speeches for Ronald Reagan, George Deukmejian and Pete Wilson, scoffed at the notion that Romney will suffer Whitman's fate.
"Meg Whitman never had a chance at winning, in my opinion, and this was compounded with a terribly unwieldy campaign," he said.
That's not the case with Romney, he maintained, and polls now showing his decline are unfairly weighted toward Democratic voters — a charge made by other Republicans.
"There is not a single measurable metric for all this gloom and doom" about Romney, Wilcox said. "Not fundraising, not crowd size, not volunteer organization, not mood on the ground. Meg Whitman had none of those things going for her."
Yet some veteran GOP hands believe the damage has come too late for Romney to recover, as it did for Whitman.
Californians might know better than anyone how similar their campaigns' evolutions have been.
Consider that both began their campaigns perceived as moderate captains of industry. But both were forced to tack sharply to the right during the primary election season on issues ranging from illegal immigration and taxes to beat out more conservative competitors — in Whitman's case, state Insurance Commissioner Steve Poizner; in Romney's, Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum — to clinch their nominations.
Still, neither completely convinced their Republican bases of their conservative bona fides. So they had to spend much of their general-election campaigns simultaneously reassuring those bases and trying to woo independents.
Whitman, now Hewlett-Packard's CEO, had said she wanted to run California "a little bit more like a business," much as Romney has talked about applying private-sector know-how to public-sector problems.
But politics requires the ability to make a fundamental connection with voters, not just an ability to sell a product or make a profit, said campaign strategist Matt David, who managed Jon Huntsman's GOP presidential primary campaign.
"Those are entirely different things," he said.
David, a top aide to former California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger who worked on the presidential campaigns of George W. Bush in 2004 and John McCain in 2008, said people coming from a corporate boardroom atmosphere too often don't realize you can't use a business algorithm to get people to like, trust and identify with you.
Dan Schnur, a former GOP operative who now directs USC's Unruh Institute of Politics, agreed that Whitman and Romney's business resumes provide both opportunity and challenge. "They've been able to talk about their knowledge and understanding of economic and job creation issues. But ironically their success in that area has created a barrier between them and the voters they need to reach."
The California Nurses Association had been doing its "Queen Meg" political theater long before Nicky Diaz was on the scene, just as Romney has spent a lot of time dodging jibes of elitism about his car elevator, his wife's Olympic dressage horse and two Cadillacs — to say nothing of his offer to bet Texas Gov. Rick Perry $10,000.
Schnur said the Republican National Convention in Tampa last month marked the start of Romney's attempt to connect viscerally with middle-class voters.
"Both his and his wife's speeches spent a lot of time talking about their own lives and challenges in a way that voters hadn't heard previously," he said. "If he comes up short, a lot of people will be asking whether that effort should've begun earlier in the campaign."
Whitman was late to that party, too, and her efforts were hamstrung after Diaz made national news with her allegations. Whitman had been tied with Brown in the polls in mid-July, and even led him in some polls in early September, but immediately saw her political stock plummet, particularly with Latino voters.
Romney's hiring of a landscaping firm that relied on undocumented immigrant workers was old news by the time this campaign began. But his campaign reeled after the now-famous video made "47" the best known percentage in recent political history.
"Every candidate makes statements that they wish they hadn't," Schnur said. "The added challenge of this one is that it reinforces an impression of Romney that his opponents have been pushing for several months."

I'll be seeing you in all the old familiar places
Mitt Romney's and Meg Whitman's campaigns have been intertwined. Whitman was a finance director for Romney's 2008 primary campaign and again this year. He endorsed and stumped with her in 2010, and she has stumped for him this year, helping him raise big bucks in Silicon Valley. She also gave $100,000 earlier this year to the pro-Romney super PAC Restore Our Future.

Gearing up: BlackHawk expands into new headquarters
Much of Blackhawk's growth has been fueled by homeland security demands since Sept. 11, 2001
By JON W. GLASS
The Virginian-Pilot
NORFOLK, Va. — The four-story office building rises from the ground like a fortress, with two stone pillars resembling a military battlement and an arched roof bringing to mind a parachute canopy.
For Mike Noell, a former Navy SEAL, the structure symbolizes a rock-solid military positioning. The muscular architecture also makes a statement about the strength of Noell's company, BlackHawk Products Group.

Toronto Sun's Lorrie Goldstein on the recent evolution controversy in Canada
Still cleanin' out the ol' mailbox here ...
The Toronto Sun's Lorrie Goldstein sounds off about Canadian science minister Gary Goodyear's recent refusal to say what he thinks about "evolution", which resulted in a florescence of dino puff costumes on the street in downtown Toronto, like pimples on a pubescent teen:
And I can understand why. A science minister who refuses to state he believes in evolution -- even if he considers the question hostile -- is worrisome, especially since his answer should have been easy.Well, Goodyear did answer it, finally, and said the obvious thing - evolution goes on all the time. I doubt that will pacify the Darwin mob, however. They need their particular narrative to be government policy. That's the one and only point.
All sorts of sensible people believe simultaneously in evolution and that God, or, if you prefer, a guiding intelligence, was behind creation, and therefore evolution.

Testing Strategies
Currently, Maven only supports unit testing out of the box. What we want is something flexible enough to work without having to make test definitions arbitrary.
Types of Tests
Unit Tests
- run before package
- want 100% success before moving on generally
Integration Tests
- require the artifact, so run after package but before install.
- generally want 100% before moving on.
- May use junit or other plugin like cactus, including deploying to a server
Acceptance Tests
- also called functional or regression tests.
- not run every time, probably a report and/or part of a profile.
- run after install, before deploy
- Regression tests (acceptance tests from previous milestones) should be at 100%
- acceptance (also called functional) tests only need to get to 100% at release time.
- performance/stress tests - another form of acceptance test.
Use cases
- plugin integration tests (c.f. eclipse plugin)
- report integration tests (see Vincent S's work - htmlunit)
- cactus plugin
- geronimo itest plugin
- need to be able to compile additional sources, have own dependencies (basically reapply the whole test lifecycle again - given that this also matches the main one, perhaps that can be reusable/forked)
- we should have a setup and teardown phase around the actual test goal
- may want to reapply test stuff on other test sets (eg junit report, clover)
separate project is ideal, but
- a bit unnatural, more strung out
- doesn't fit IDE well
- you can still use it if you support in project tests, so better to do that
While a separate project might be something we recommend, I think we need to support them within the same project.
Plugin integration tests
This means running a separate instance of Maven to do it effectively, so should always be separate projects utilising the built archive without requiring it be installed (bound to the integration test phase).
How can we ensure the integration test of the subproject is run before installation of the parent?
Perhaps it is better to have a plugin integration testing plugin that actually runs from the parent and execs maven on the subproject.
Report integration tests
This should be done in an identical fashion to a plugin integration test, but using htmlunit to test the output. This means having junit test cases.
Junit Integration Tests
We have an issue here in that we would have to recofigure the whole plugin, essentially needing to know its information. Can we preconfigure it, like we do with the forked lifecycles? Or is it best to just wire this one in by default to the integration testing parts of the lifecycle and use a different mojo (surefire:itest, compiler:itestCompile)?
Cactus Plugin
Junit Acceptance Tests
These would be set up in the same way as the junit integration tests except for the time at which they are run. The main difference may be that the default configuration would be to change the required acceptance to pass. It may be better to have a different plugin for these in general, but the default would also be surefire like above.

With respect to UATs I would like to see support for FIT style tests ala FitNesse (http://fitnesse.org).
Unknown User (davesag)
I've mentioned this before in other forums but the surefire plugin needs to run with assertions enabled for almost any of my unit tests to pass properly. Currently this can only be done by setting MAVEN_OPTS=-ea in my .profile and is not a portable solution.
This is discussed in Jira. http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-441

Hi, I have just recently started using maven, so apologies if this is nonsense. Nevertheless, this is what I think would be a good way to handle different types of testing:
I think the test goal should have different stages, for example:
- mandatory
- default
- extensive
- everything
per default "mvn test" executes all mandatory tests, and all default tests. "mvn test::everything" executes all available tests.
Some different types of tests, and their level:
- Unit Tests to test individual classes or objects (default)
- Acceptance tests / Functional tests (everything)
- Performance Tests: how fast it is (extensive)
- Load Tests: how it performs under a large load (extensive)
- Smoke Tests: fast tests for the key functionality (mandatory)
- Integration Tests: how the pieces work together (default)
- Mock Client Tests: tests from the client's point of view (default)
- ...
It should also be possible to define custom test types, assign them to a level, and to run them.
Well, at least that's what I would really like to have
Martin: currently you can use profiles to modify which tests are run depending on the environment and your command line paraemeters.
From an architectural viewpoint, I believe that requiring a separate project for integration tests is a poor choice -- integration tests have exactly the same affinity with the sources being tested that unit tests do. In particular, a source code release of the main project should always include the sources for the integration tests too. That requires error-prone manual intervention in the current model.
My suggestion is that you add a series of lifecycle phases similar in operation to the current testing section, but with its own source directory (perhaps it/java, it/resources, etc.). Most important is that this also needs a separate scope for dependencies ... for exapmle, my Ant-based integration tests of webapps in Shale require HtmlUnit, but the unit tests do not.
As I mentioned in MNG-2344, I can sort of live with this for Shale itself, because we can teach our own committers to always run the integration tests project, and teach our release managers to release both projects simultaneously. But I was hoping to leverage the archetype capabilities of Maven to create "starter" webapp project structures, complete with starter unit and integration tests. Without the ability to "show by example" that integration tests are important, we're likely to see more under-tested or un-tested webapps in the world .

I agree 100% Craig's view of this issue and I see several problems with the separate project solution.
- integration (and other) tests have exactly the same importance like unit tests from a project's view - a project should strictly not be allowed to be installed/deployed/released if its integration tests fail. A separate project approach completely prevent such a requirement as a separate project is beyond the actual project's lifecycle.
- test feedback for the developer should be provided when working on the project - not on any other project
- the only difference between different types of tests ( e.g. unit tests vs. integration tests) is IMHO the current build stage of the project.
- Unit tests - compiled sources, resources, test sources, test resources (currently separated from the actual sources and tied together in the ./test/ folder)
- Integration tests - precondition of unit tests AND prepackaged build ( e.g. war:exploded ) currently NOT separated/integrated)
- Acceptance tests - precondition of integration tests and completely built project - currently NOT separated/integrated)
Therefore I propose the following project directory structure besides other directories:
- main/src
- main/resources
- unittest/src (earlier test/src)
- unittest/resources (earlier test/resource)
- integrationtest/src
- integrationtest/resources
- acceptancetest/src (java sources needed for acceptance tests ?)
- acceptancetest/resource
This would by convention allow different (re-)sources to be used on different stages of the build. Compatibility could be preserved if the ./test/ folder would be treated as an alias to the ./unittest/ folder.
A second step would be to find a solution for aggregating common output (like e.g. clover reports which should be collected over integration tests as well, perhaps even over acceptance tests as far as they are automated).
I'm pretty new in the maven business, but this would be my intuitive view of a maven solution. I can't seriously estimate the efforts.

What a season it has turned out to be: Crystal Palace are sitting pretty in mid-table and do not even need to worry about staying up.
It is a far cry from the dark days of October, when previous manager Ian Holloway left under a cloud and the Eagles had only three points after nine games.
Then Tony Pulis took over, got them promoted with wins against Chelsea, Aston Villa and away at Everton, and has just won April's manager of the month award.
But was just the Pulis factor? What else has contributed to this remarkable turn-around?
We asked our Palace brains trust for their views: Croydon Guardian sport editor Tim Ashton, News Shopper sports editor Paul Green, Reporter Andy Bloss, and matchday reporter Andrew McSteen.

A left-wing broadcaster cut short an interview with Aaron Klein at the Democratic National Convention after the WND senior staff writer responded to a question about the influence of casino billionaire on the Republican Party with a question about George Soros' considerable support of leftist groups that influence the Democratic Party. Klein, co-author with Brenda Elliott of the new book "Fool Me Twice: Obama's Shocking Plans for the Next Four Years Exposed," was interviewed by Democracy Now!, which broadcasts its programs on Pacifica radio, NPR, college radio stations, public access, PBS, satellite television and the Internet.
The interviewer asked Klein about the electoral influence of casino billionaire Sheldon Adelson, a major donor to Republican candidates.
Klein immediately turned the question around and asked about billionaire Soros' considerably larger contributions to groups that influence the Democratic Party.
"I said Adelson gives only a trickle of money compared to what George Soros gives," Klein said. "What do you think about Soros giving money to Moveon.org and a who's who of radical progressive leftists, many of whom are very friendly with Democracy Now!?"
The interviewer did not respond, insisting it was her job to ask the questions.
Adelson, a self-made billionaire in Las Vegas, is worth some $25 billion. He gave millions to the campaign of former House Speaker Newt Gingrich.
According to a Forbes profile, Soros is worth about the same as Adelson. Soros made his money in hedge funds and over the years has given $8.5 billion to "human rights, education and public health groups."
Responding to a question, Klein said, "Are you saying Noam Chomsky and people like him represent the average American Jewish community? Are you saying that people who go on solidarity visits to Hezbollah, solidarity visits to Hamas, people who say that Iran should have a nuclear capability, represent the American Jewish community? So I'm asking how you can even ask such a question?"
Klein then responded to another question about the U.S. as a broker in the Middle East. He said, as the Democracy Now! interviewer tried to pull the microphone away, "I turn the question back to you. What about George Soros? Why do you not respond to me?"
"The interview's over," she said.
Klein's book, ranked No. 8 on the Times list, uncovers the template for Obama's next four years – the actual, extensive plans created by Obama's own top advisers and progressive strategists.
"Fool Me Twice" unveils all the main areas of Obama's second-term domestic policy onslaught – jobs, wages, health care, immigration "overhaul," electoral "reform," national energy policy, Pentagon plans and more.
"Just as 'Unfit for Command' provided the margin of defeat for John Kerry in 2004, 'Fool Me Twice' will ensure Obama serves only one term," said WND CEO Joseph Farah. "No true American can read this book or hear about its explosive revelations and support his re-election. It's just that simple. This book is a game-changer."
Just as in 2008, when Obama concealed his true presidential plans behind soaring rhetoric of ending partisan differences and cutting the federal deficit, his 2012 re-election theme of creating jobs conceals far more than it reveals about his true agenda for a second term.
"Aaron Klein and Brenda Elliott have written an eye-opening book that reveals Barack Obama's plans to disarm the United States and advance the socialist agenda if elected to a second term. Americans need to read this book before they go to the polls in November," said David Horowitz.
Here are just a few examples from dozens of specific schemes:
- Detailed plans to enact single-payer health-care legislation controlled by the federal government, regardless of any Supreme Court decisions regarding Obamacare;
- The creation of a 21st century version of FDR's Works Progress Administration (WPA) program within the Department of Labor that would oversee a massive new bureaucracy and create millions of new federal government jobs;
- Further gutting of the U.S. military in shocking ways, while using the "savings" for a new "green" stimulus program and the founding of a federal "green" bank to fund so-called environmentally friendly projects;
- The vastly reduced personnel resources of the U.S. armed forces will be spread even thinner by using them to combat "global warming," fight global poverty, remedy "injustice," bolster the United Nations and step up use of "peacekeeping" deployments;
- An expansive new amnesty program for illegal aliens linked with a reduction in the capabilities of the U.S. Border Patrol and plans to bring in untold numbers of new immigrants with the removal of caps on H-1B visas and green cards.
Aaron Klein is Jerusalem bureau chief for WND and hosts "Aaron Klein Investigative Radio" on New York's WABC Radio, the nation's largest talk station. Klein's program is one of only two weekend shows in the U.S. to make the Talkers Heavy Hundred official list of top American radio shows.
His previous books include "Red Army," "The Manchurian President," "The Late Great State of Israel"and "Schmoozing with Terrorists."
Brenda J. Elliott is an award-winning historian and researcher. She is the blogger who created RezkoWatch, The Real Barack Obama, RBO and RBO2. She has appeared on hundreds of radio shows, contributed to numerous investigative articles and publications and is the co-author of "Red Army" and "The Manchurian President."

A Brief History:
M D Publications Inc., parent company of Auto TECH expo, Undercar Digest and Transmission Digest, has a long history of providing accurate news and up-to-date technical and management information to the automotive-repair industry. This published information was complemented by the formation of an industrywide transmission trade show in 1984 and an undercar trade show starting in 1987. The two mega-events merged in 1996, and Showpower Expo was born! Today the refocused Auto TECH expo includes top manufacturers and distributors in the auto-repair industry, plus technical and management seminars that examine the core developments in all aspects of automotive diagnostics and repairs in our industry.
M D's start took place more 40 years ago in 1976, when founders Les Langsford (1928-1993) and Carol Langsford (1933-2012) published their first issue of Muffler Digest in August of that year. Being the predecessor of Undercar Digest, Muffler Digest was well received by muffler-shop operators. In the past, these shop operators could find only limited information and advertising in general-repair trade magazines about the exhaust-system replacement business.
M D introduced Transmission Digest in 1981 – meeting the needs of another segment of the repair market that had been ignored. It too was a hit with its readers. Shortly afterward, M D began publishing Transmission Tech/Talk, a monthly eight-page technical bulletin, for the industry.
With muffler shops beginning to offer more and more undercar repairs, Muffler Digest was revamped in 1987 and renamed Undercar Digest, adding brake and chassis repairs to the editorial mix. Today the magazine features technical information on a wide array of repairs with emphasis on diagnostics and drivability.
In 1990, M D began offering Brake Tech/Talk and Alignment Tech/Talk, two monthly technical bulletins that deal with topics such as ABS and all-wheel alignment.
With its strong heritage of determined leaders, M D Publications has strengthened its longstanding position of being the best information provider to the industry. Continuing the original guidance of its founders and present team members, the company has come to be widely recognized as the premier publisher of automotive aftermarket trade publications, whose dedicated team, state-of-the-art production facilities, efficient mailing operations, data processing and quality circulation are the envy of the industry.
All of us at MD welcome you to our Online Publication Center and encourage you to visit all of our sites.

BLACKSBURG, Va. -- A tough day out on the links Friday left the Yale men's golf team with a share for 12th place at the NCAA Virginia Tech Regional. The Elis have one round left at the difficult Pete Dye-designed River Course in Blacksburg, Va., to make their mark in the competition, which they obtained an automatic berth in after taking out the Ivy League Championship last month.
Georgia Tech continues to lead the competition, with an overall team score of 582 (+6), while the Bulldogs sit on 618 (+42), moving up from 13th place at the end of Thursday's play after a number a strong individual performances.
Leading the way for the Yale team are senior captain Thomas McCarthy and junior Jeffrey Hatten, who was recently elected to captain the team next year. McCarthy shot 73 (+1) to finish at 148 (+4) and a tie for 17th; Hatten, meanwhile, fired a gutsy 75 (+3) to end the second day at 158 (+14) and a share for 65th place, a significant jump from yesterday's finish.
Tied for 60th place are freshman Sam Bernstein and sophomore Bradley Kushner, both of whom closed play at 156 (+12) and showed glimpses of their season long prowess throughout their rounds.
The final day's play will kick off at 7:30 a.m.

Home > News > Wentworth-Douglass Hospital, Southern New Hampshire Health System Join Concord Hospital and Elliot Hospital in Accountable Care
Published on March 19, 2014
Southern New Hampshire Health System in Nashua and Dover's Wentworth-Douglass Hospital now are part of NH Accountable Care Partners, previously known as the Concord Elliot ACO. The expansion brings together nearly 1,000 healthcare providers and expects to serve more than 35,000 Medicare recipients.
"With four organizations participating in the ACO we have tremendous opportunities for shared learning to help us reorganize care delivery around patient's needs," said Dr. Gregory Baxter, NH Accountable Care Partners medical director.
Under the ACO collaboration, the organizations agree to be held accountable for the health of their Medicare Fee-For-Service beneficiaries attributed to the ACO. The ACO will identify beneficiaries with health risk factors early through evidence-based screening, and through improved care coordination and management of chronic conditions to reduce the need for unnecessary hospitalization and Emergency Department visits.
The goal is more satisfied patients, higher quality and lower cost care, with the member hospitals having the opportunity to share in any savings realized by the Medicare program.
"The ACO structure provides us with the means to work more closely with patients to improve their health and quality of life rather than just reacting to episodic acute illness," said Dr. David Green, NH Accountable Care Partners CEO.
Betsey Rhynhart, the ACO's executive director, said beneficiaries attributed to Concord Elliot ACO have already benefited from their partnership, established in 2012.
She cites the example of a patient whose care changed dramatically after the patient began working with a key person within the ACO, a Nurse Navigator, a role some organizations might refer to as a Care Manager or Care Coordinator. They help patients navigate through the increasingly complex healthcare system with keen focus on building trusting relationships with each patient and their entire healthcare team.
The 77-year-old woman had 15 chronic conditions, was taking 17 medications and being treated by five specialists and her primary care physician. During the first nine months of last year, the patient was treated in the Emergency Department 16 times and admitted to the hospital twice. After a Nurse Navigator began checking on the patient and monitoring her condition, she visited her primary care physician nine times, with no Emergency Department visits or hospitalizations.
Expanding the size and reach of the ACO will enhance available resources to the hospitals, healthcare providers and most important to the Medicare Fee-For-Service beneficiaries that are served by the ACO. "Working together creates great opportunities," said Rhynhart, "It's being able to learn from each other how to better help patients that are at risk, so we will be able to focus our resources and provide more effective care."
To ensure that savings are achieved through improving and providing care that is appropriate, safe and timely, an ACO must meet strict quality standards. The government has established 33 quality measures regarding care coordination and patient safety, appropriate use of preventive health services, improved care for at-risk populations and the patient and caregiver experience.
About NH Accountable Care PartnersThe Medicare Shared Savings Program – a component of the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act – promotes the development of Accountable Care Organizations to achieve the Institute for Healthcare Improvement Three Part Aim: improving the experience of care, improving the health of populations and reducing the cost of health care.
More than 35,000 Medicare Fee-for-Service beneficiaries in our region are now benefiting from NH Accountable Care Partners, an initiative designed to coordinate and improve their care while helping stem the rise in healthcare costs, through their relationship with Concord Hospital, Elliot Hospital, Southern New Hampshire Health System and Wentworth-Douglass Hospital providers.
