Around dawn this morning dawn, the planet Venus outshone the Moon in the southern sky over Brampton. The skies clouded over rapidly from the west ruining the spectacle.
Rooks set out in a straggling flock from Oxnead, the attendant Jackdaws seeming to burst with their usual excessive playfulness and noise. On the railway line Blackbirds loiter, not quite sure if spring is approaching. There is no song from them – only the Robins have the metal to start what they have finished and their challenging song continues.
In the cutting a small resident flock of Bullfinches communicate with wistful low calls. They congregate around the thorns waiting for succulent buds to form. </s> Brightness of sound. </s> The border area west of the Black Sea between Bulgaria, where the author Kapka Kassabova grew up under a communist regime, with Turkey and Greece to the south, is a mystery to most people. Situated on the edge of Europe, it has been fated to lie on the edge of a succession of empires: Greek, Ottoman and Soviet, suffering continual invasion and domination, with enforced transfers of Greeks into Turkey and vice versa, now replaced by the stream of refugees from ravaged areas like Syria, trying to reach Germany or the UK by a backdoor remote mountainous route. Since her own family was forced out as economic migrants, I think during the messy collapse of communism, travelling as far afield as New Zealand, she displays a strong empathy for migrants of all kinds.
The lack of clarity, combined with frequent digression into anecdotes and folktales, and a picaresque map which omits most place-names to focus on specific features of her stories such as “The Spring of the White-Legged Maiden” or “Felix’s Cliff”, create an avoidable confusion which is my main criticism of the book.
Sometimes the supernatural “goes over the top” for my taste, as in the convoluted tale of the “Tomb of Basket”, the excavation of which was thwarted by terrifying night-time visions of “three-dimensional spectral projections” coming out of the rock to approach the terrified observers “who got the hell out of there”.
Kapka Kassabova has an appealing honesty, even if sometimes verging on neurosis. When it was time to move on from “the Village in the Valley” she writes: “I had worried that I was at heart a deracinated, drifting person, despite my delusion or being at home everywhere. T That I fancied myself as an observer, but even after twenty years away, I was still a participant and always would be. That I had no distance from anything and cared too much about the doomed.

He raises some good points but also has a lot of weak points that he should leave to experts in the field to discuss who know about the complexity of these matters and therefore wouldn’t be as confident as he is in coming up with solutions. For example the section on kids is definitely a field out of his depth. The criticises marginal cost thinking but that is how they were taught which is why they think in that way. And in actual fact there is nothing wrong with marginal cost theory. It is the application that is the problem. To fully implement the magic of marginal cost would entail bribing the price and thus profits down. Established companies may have other short term incentives to attend to which is why they don’t do it, even though it may be detrimental to their long term interest. So it is not a problem with the theory rather the application that is the problem

Communities in the Southern Region towns of Limbe and Blantyre have appealed to the Blantyre City Council (BCC) to ensure that developers engage the services of professional builders in renovating condemned buildings to ensure buildings in the towns have a definitive pattern.
BCC last week embarked on a Red Star campaign which saw city officials marking condemned buildings with red stars.
According to the council, a total of 161 buildings, 87 and 74 in Limbe have been earmarked for demolition.
A snap survey conducted by The Daily Times on Saturday revealed that communities are happy to see that the council is eager to see the structures in the two towns improve.
The communities, however, indicated the need for developers to engage the services of skilled professionals in the exercise.
“It’s good to see that the council appears to be more serious this time around with the red star campaign. Let’s hope it will really materialise. We appeal to the city assembly to ensure that the new buildings are professionally done.
“We have professionals such as Press Properties, Pacific Limited and others which if engaged can help deliver quality and modern structures,” said Amos Magombo, a Bangwe resident.
Magombo’s sentiments were shared by Mercy Chingagwe of Zingwangwa who modern towns require buildings that have a distinct pattern.
“Towns and cities in other countries have a distinct look. There is need for uniform or identical style of buildings to create what is described as harmony,” said Chingagwe.
In a letter addressed to property owners, BCC has given them until January 2016 to submit new designs for the buildings, adding that demolition of the condemned buildings is expected to start on March 1, 2016.
BCC spokesperson Anthony Kasunda yesterday said the new buildings are supposed to have a minimum of three storeys.
“As the council, we will make sure that only the best buildings are developed in Limbe and Blantyre,” said Kasunda.

A New Leaf, or a Fig Leaf?
By ELISSA GOOTMANMARCH 31, 2002
AS a Republican from the Hudson Valley, Harold J. Porr 3rd seems an odd choice to manage this sliver of beaches, boardwalk and tightly spaced homes.
This is, after all, a bastion of Democrats at the southern edge of a county that was, until recently, a seemingly impenetrable Republican stronghold. It is a suburban city of 35,000 with a small-town feel, a place where roots run deep, families stick around and residents do not always take kindly to receiving their direction from outsiders.
Long Beach is also simmering with political intrigue. Residents have sued the city, asserting that too much power has consolidated in the hands of Eugene C. Cammarato, the city's director of operations and the local Democratic leader. A top police official was demoted in what his supporters believe was an act of political retribution after his son ran for office as a Republican. And some residents are wondering why a nonprofit organization received a letter asking that it pay the city rent shortly after hosting a meeting at which audience members railed against the city's Democratic leadership.
These clashes will be a backdrop sharply silhouetting Mr. Porr when he takes office as city manager on Monday. Many here are wondering what kind of signal his appointment is supposed to send.
Joel Crystal, president of the city council, said it selected Mr. Porr based on his experience managing the city of Newburgh, not to placate Republicans and not to disprove Long Beach's reputation as a one-party city. ''Our politics in this instance,'' he said, ''was to make the city of Long Beach the best city we could.''
Mr. Porr, 50, does not see himself as a patsy.
''I'm aware that they call it a one-party town,'' Mr. Porr said. ''When I looked into the eyes of those council members and spoke to them, I could tell that all of them, every one of them, cares about their community first and party second.''
But many Long Beach residents say they have seen too much to believe that. Tensions rose three weeks after the November election when Thomas R. Sofield, the chief of detectives of the Long Beach Police Department, was told he would be reassigned to a lesser position. This month, he received a letter announcing that his title would be changed to lieutenant from detective-lieutenant, and that his pay would be cut, his son Thomas Jr. said.
While Lieutenant Sofield has been advised not to speak publicly on his demotion, his supporters -- his friends, his children, his children's friends and his friends' children, because that's the kind of place Long Beach is -- chalk it up to retribution. They say the lieutenant, a beloved 23-year veteran of the Long Beach Police Department who was twice considered for the post of police commissioner, was punished for Thomas Jr.'s decision to run for city council as part of a coalition ticket, on the Republican line. The younger Sofield and the two Republicans he ran with all lost, but not by much considering registered Democrats outnumber Republicans almost three to one in the city.
The supporters say Lieutenant Sofield is also being punished for something he saw while roaming about City Hall early one fall morning: a city worker printing campaign literature (Democratic, of course). He reported it to the District Attorney's office as a possible violation of abuse-of-office laws.
And then there is the matter of the Long Beach Martin Luther King Center, a community organization in an African-American neighborhood that received a letter shortly after the election, requesting that it pay the city rent and utility costs for 2002. The timing was suspicious, some residents claimed: it came on the heels of a meet-the-candidates forum at the center where audience members criticized the Democrats, and an election in which the neighborhood voted for Republicans in surprising numbers.
''It was a punishment maybe for the neighborhood, for coming out in public and voicing your opinion against the machine,'' said Mary Lou Monahan, an 18-year resident and former board member of the center. ''Probably they didn't expect to get the rent. It was just a little threat.''
A city council meeting late last year was punctuated by heckles, jeers and comparisons to the Soviet Union.
''Long Beach government is the antithesis of American democracy,'' Mark Jackson, a longtime resident and retiree, proclaimed.
''We're going to have a police state of Long Beach,'' declared Mona Goodman, who ran unsuccessfully on the Republican city council ticket.
''If something is shady and it stinks to high heaven,'' Johanna Sofield, a daughter-in-law of the demoted police official, instructed the council, ''it is your responsibility to look into it.''
If there is one person who is optimistic that Mr. Porr's appointment represents a sea change for Long Beach, it must be the local Republican leader, right?
Wrong. James V. Moriarty, chairman of the Long Beach Republican City Committee, said he took little comfort in the selection of a Republican city manager.
''Under a city manager form of government, the city manager should be completely nonpolitical and nonpartisan and should be hired solely for his professional skills as a municipal manager,'' Mr. Moriarty said. ''I would like to extend an olive branch and a welcome mat because as a lifelong resident, I would like to see him succeed. The fact that he apparently is a Republican is completely and totally irrelevant.''
Mr. Porr is more than apparently a Republican. He served as the Republican leader of Newburgh for two years and ran for Orange County executive on the Republican ticket before being selected to serve as Newburgh city manager in 1992.
Mr. Porr is also no stranger to the vicissitudes of local politics: In 1999, the city council ousted him. Within 12 hours, he had a new job, as city administrator of Poughkeepsie. The Newburgh city council reappointed Mr. Porr in 2000, but he was ousted again early this year, after a rocky year in which he clashed with the city's Democratic mayor, who was elected in 2001.
''I call Newburgh green beret training for city managers,'' he said in a telephone interview from his home, which he is leaving for a rented house in Long Beach. ''After you've done Newburgh, you can do anything, because it's such a caustic political place. It's very, very hardball politics in Newburgh. There's such poverty and such crime, and if you can succeed in Newburgh, you can succeed anywhere.''
Skeptics of the motives behind Mr. Porr's appointment point to the city's political structure, saying Mr. Cammarato will have too much power no matter who is city manager. While many cities have a mayor and a city council, in Long Beach the only local elected officials are the city council members, who serve on a part-time basis -- opening the door, critics say, for power-seeking party activists to run the show.
''It creates a vacuum that must be filled, almost always by a political leader,'' said a longtime Long Beach resident who is active in politics. ''After Cammarato there will be someone else.''
As the local Democratic leader, Mr. Cammarato is a political kingmaker with an essential role in selecting city council candidates. As director of operations, he has a powerful administrative role. Technically, he answers to the city manager, who answers to the city council members, who, when it comes time to select the Democratic candidate slate, essentially answer to Mr. Cammarato.
''It's a consolidation of power in one man's hands, and it's just not healthy,'' said James P. Hennessy, one of the unsuccessful Republican city council candidates.
But Mr. Crystal said it was ''campaign rhetoric'' to assert that council members, who are paid less than $20,000 a year, feel beholden to Mr. Cammarato.
''It's sour grapes,'' said Mr. Crystal, a retired teacher. ''No one's ever told me how to vote, nobody's ever bullied me, outside of the gadflies and Republicans who run for office.''
For every alleged impropriety, Long Beach's leaders have plausible explanations that even their fiercest critics have a difficult time disproving.
The city's new police commissioner, John J. Laffey, a 31-year veteran of the New York Police Department, said he alone decided to reassign Lieutenant Sofield. ''What I'm doing now is exactly what Ray Kelly is doing in the N.Y.P.D.,'' Mr. Laffey said in an interview shortly after he became commissioner. ''And that is to set about forming my own team to run this police department.''
The request that the Martin Luther King Center find its rent money elsewhere was quickly withdrawn after it was clear that it could not do so this year, leaders said.
And the business about campaign literature being produced at City Hall? ''It's a nonsense situation,'' Mr. Cammarato said, explaining that a single member of his staff had printed one sheet of campaign material early in the morning, before the office opened.
''During a campaign, employees on either side of a campaign do foolish things,'' he said. The staff member was fined.
Mr. Cammarato, 54, who started working for the city of Long Beach some 30 years ago as a sewer maintenance worker, said he was likely to retire at the end of the year. Unless, that is, Mr. Porr urges him to stay.

Unique FC http://sett.com/uniquefc Draft Style Fantasy Football en-us Fri, 23 Mar 2018 11:30:10 +0000 http://sett.com Sett RSS Generator Operation 'Enforced Player Trades' Active http://sett.com/uniquefc/operation-enforced-player-trades-active Continuing on from the previous article, and following some discussions with the league members, we've decided to go ahead and adopt the player trading system starting from next month. Overall, this is extremely exciting!
On a personal note, there is an element of devastation in this. Why?Because it means that my Sanchez propelled monster of a team is likely to lose...well...Alexis Sanchez!
Gameweek 22 came to a close after a bore 0-0 draw between West Brom and Everton. Not that I'm going to complain with autosub Wisdom coming in to bolster my points tally by 6 points. How did the league shape up?
Nishit's Dodger's stayed 3 points ahead of my Sprezzature, but it was oh so close!Beating out Ravi's Uganda!
Not much contest elsewhere. 'Falcao save me FC' relying on a 9 point difference (no thanks to Falcao, thank you very much) to get past 'Drafting...' (somebody needs to tell Rishi that the draft is complete and he can rename his team...
In order to remedy this, my cousin Nish came up with a suggestion: What if we implemented compulsory player trades?
Picking the right mechanism might be tricky.Player trades can be exciting...IF they involve the 'big' players. Cesc Fabregas moving teams is a lot more noteworthy than George Boyd getting poached by another team (that said, he's knocked in a few handy goals for me in recent times!
Simply a requirement for a trade might be difficult. One of the biggest reasons that there is a lack of trades is that nobody ever feels that the other side is offering a fair deal.And well, that is often the case - like when Rishi tried to get Hazard off me in exchange for Nasri...Really?On a related note, when we rebuild the UniqueFC engine, I intend on enabling points to be used as currency. I think this would be a good negotiating tool that can encourage transfers by acting as make-weights. So for the prior example, I could demand 100 points to give up Hazard for Nasri (if I am feeling generous!
How would this be enforced?What would be the punishment for not fulfilling your obligatory trades?
The overall prospect of losing a key player to a rival and seeing his points be used against you is quite interesting and I think worth exploring. On the flip side, stealing an opponents key player to bridge the gap against him is fantastic!
Just to kick-start the player trading business. I've found that we tend to get attached to players that we have drafted in, almost irrationally so - this tends to stifle trades throughout the season and I wanted an early catalyst to make sure this didn't happen. I felt the trade would go through because...
I genuinely felt I was offering up a deal that was a no-brainer for the other side. Why would I do this?That brings us to number 3...
So what was the deal on offer?
Mame Biram Diouf - Looking threatening as the main man at Stoke (albeit slightly injury prone). He had just scored the winner against Manchester City not long before the draft so I was surprised that he had been overlooked!
So, would you have taken the deal on offer?And which side of the equation will win out in terms of total points by the end of the season?
The transfer window shut after a busy (mad!) day of transfers...Falcao to United?Seriously?
After much deliberation and research (going through a tonne of draft style fantasy football sites that have sprung up since we launched), I have decided to set my league for the upcoming season on...wait for it...a spreadsheet!
We just got back from the world cup in Brazil, which has been an absolutely fantastic experience!
As long time followers will know, last season was when we started development and launched. It took until a few months Into the season until we were ready to go but I'm happy to say that everything is in order now, and if we do go ahead, we can all jump in from the very beginning!
Related to the above, I am not sure on whether it is worthwhile continuing with the site. As recent comments have shown, there are a couple of other players that have joined the game over the last few months. Draft style fantasy football is a passion of mine and was our gift to fantasy football (because at the time, I could not find anything out there!
http://sett.com/uniquefc/live-and-ready So, after a countless number of delays (our apologies for that), we are ready to go!
We are already 8 gameweeks into the season, which is not ideal, but the game should still be immensely fun - and for myself personally, it is a ready made excuse for my appalling performance in the official game: "I'm focusing on draft style fantasy football this year..."


"Wow! I never knew that!" exclaimed the wide-eyed tester who had just finished reading about the evolution of toilets, from the public open-air ones in ancient Rome to modern toilets that flush automatically.

The book is enhanced by an Inventions Timeline dating back to 50,000 BC (oil lamps) to 1992 (Text message), glossary, and index.

Our Health Centre is to be a multi-faceted facility providing comprehensive health and wellness to the residents of the entire Municipality of Chester (from Martin’s River, to and including all of the Blandford Peninsula, and inland to New Ross), the Hubbards area, and the Tancook Islands.   The broad vision for Our Health Centre is that of a welcoming, collaborative health facility where our community members can obtain health-related information and care, and can be well-served in times of health or illness.  We believe Our Health Centre will help the people in our region to live healthier lives.
Our Health Centre will be owned and operated by the residents of our community.  Great thought and care has gone into the design of the Centre, to ensure that we are able to address the growing gap between identified health care needs and timely access to care. For several years, it has been apparent that we do not have sufficient or appropriate health care resources available to serve the current or expanding needs of our community. Many of our residents do not have a family physician, yet our region has some of the highest incidences of obesity, diabetes, and heart disease, in the province.  We are also home to an aging population in need of geriatric and palliative support, which is currently not available.
Medical care shortage is one of the most critical issues in our region, specifically, our need for additional primary care physicians, nurse practitioners and family practise nurses. In addition to providing space for these medical professionals, Our Health Centre will be a multi-use “magnet facility” to attract other visiting medical specialists. It will also be a new home for the public health programs and services of the South Shore Health Authority, which will re-locate to this central site.
Our Health Centre will become a hub for the provision of community-based programs and services focusing on health, wellness and well-being for all residents of our municipality, with community outreach and lifestyle programs offered through the Centre and shared across the participating communities. There is ample evidence to show that the synergies of these activities will facilitate a new way of thinking about healthcare delivery.  Our Health Centre will be a model for replication in other rural areas in Nova Scotia, and potentially elsewhere.
Our Business Plan is based on space rental, fees for certain services, and a small on-going fundraising commitment, to allow us to continue to build income from a growing endowment.
Our fundraising plan seeks support from year-round members of the community, summer residents, local and regional businesses, and will be underscored by a broad-based community campaign.

Why the Church needs the Gays. | *!
June 27, 2012 by Lindsey	Someone once asked me why God would "let" any Christian question their sexuality. Their tone of voice, I have to admit, was similiar to when my mother admonishes me for letting my kids go out of the house "in THOSE clothes". You know, because there is nothing worse than being embarrassed as a mother by what the kids choose to wear or, conversely, being a congregation where someone might be gay. I didn't answer that particular friend right away. I believe I let out a long-suffering sigh and said, "I love you anyway", and changed the subject. But the tone of the conversation has stuck with me, as has the question itself. Why would God let any of His children out of the house gay?What point does it serve?
Not only is their penchant for gossip not reprimanded, it's abused by the Church!What about all of the many people who idolize clothing, television, wealth, themselves, sports, God only knows what else?Again, we tolerate it because we understand it and because most of us who are honest struggle with it ourselves. What about the people who deal with rage?Jealousy?
Reply	Hayden T(ompkins) says:	June 28, 2012 at 1:27 am	A main reason why I left organized religion was the absolute hypocrisy and unjust, reactionary, self-centeredness I saw. People cleaving to the letter of the law and using it to lift themselves by tearing others down. The Jesus I grew up loving was nowhere (absolutely nowhere!
As for me, I love the idea that Christians are being given the opportunity of practicing Christ-ianity. Christ who surrounded himself with lepers and prostitutes, Christ who said 'let he who is without sin', Christ who understood that, above all, he was ministering to people…

Inwe c We also analyse spousal care dyads in order to model discrepancies in the reporting of care provision between spouses to provide an insight into the reliability of informal care measurements. We find that the most common measures used are likely to be under-estimating both the scale and scope of informal care, and we recommend careful consideration of the content of informal care survey questions in order to operationalise the measures of informal care activities.

Meanwhile, over in LVIS Gold, in the Open Mixed team category, things were no less prophetic. A team consisting of Jon R, Celia W, Kirstie S, James L and Andy L was due, by turns, to be endlessly cheerful, mighty in the face of adversity, well behaved, dashed fast and, rather letting the team down, getting antsy over minor details.
Someone had, however, neglected to order the sunshine. A degree of nervousness on the Friday evening accompanied the sight of many riders out pre-riding the course turning back for a snorkel and flippers. Happily things dried out nicely and the sunshine came to play on Saturday afternoon. The course was what everyone had come for, always renowned for a good bit of singletrack, the course this year was pleasingly technical for a 24h course, yet it did seem like an awful lot of climb for the payback. Hard work, certainly.
Drama aside, everyone had fun, and the LVIS teams were well satisfied with the weekend’s work. 4th in cat for LVIS Warnock Painvagen, 9th in cat for LVIS Gold. I’ve upgraded my email account storage in preparation for twentyfour12 2012 already.
Tim J and William both completed the Etape du Tour act 1 in purple and gold style on a day of stunning conditions and baking heat. In the final climb up Alpe d’Huez, Tim took a 7 minutes lead over William, but for these LVIS members that was not the real result of the day. In the post-event Strawpedo race, William finally put an end to Janisch’s decade of dominance. Janisch, gallant in defeat, did admit “It’s true. This was an unofficial overseas event, with no marshals or proper time-keeping, but Gilabert did pip Javendish by about 0.05sec”. All’s fair in cycling and strawpedos.

John’s report on his recent Ultramarathon glory.
Last weekend was the 3rd and final event in the Might Contain Nuts Welsh Winter Series of Ultramarathons. In contrast to the previous rounds of 30 and 40 miles where the conditions had been less than balmy (gales/sleet and snow featured respectively) this weekend provided ideal racing weather with broken sunshine, light winds and no precipitation.
Having done battle with the M4 on a Friday and reaches the Wye Valley sometime after bedtime a large portion of chips was consumed in Alf Tupper style and a place in the bunkroom secured for a brief night’s sleep before boarding coaches to the start at 5:45am. Having discovered that eight other chaps were inhabiting the bunkroom I was resigned to the certainty that at least one would be an internationally renowned snorer. However, against all the odds everyone slept in silence and many zzzz were accumulated.
At this point I should state that the organisation of the whole event was very slick. However, the organisers did make a huge blunder in providing portaloos at the start; because no sooner had the coach doors opened than a mad dash commenced for half the field to get in line to park their respective breakfasts! For those of us who take a minimalist approach to race kit kicking your heels for half an hour is no sufficient to stave off the cold and there’s a distinct possibility of looking like a berk warm-up running for an ultra (says the bloke in the bright red tri-suit).
Once the toilet queue had subsided we lined up ready to go. Having had the whole journey form London to consider race tactics, and bearing in mind my first round blunder of haring off at the front and missing a turning I reminded myself to stay in the lead bunch until 1/2 way and then take stock. I should point out that a little appreciated fact of fell and ultra running is that being faster than everyone else is actually a disadvantage when you’re heading in the wrong direction ….. With that thought in mind I headed off at the front in close company of

Bodine Set to Race Copart Tundra on Friday at Lowe's Mooresville, N.C. (05-11-2009) Todd Bodine has raced many types of racing vehicles at Lowe's Motor Speedway, including a Legends car. This Friday, he races in the NASCAR Camping World...
"Copart is an exciting company and we are glad to have them sponsor Germain Racing," said team owner Bob Germain. "We'Copart both at the race track and at our dealerships. Copart wants to get the message out that people can find a variety of cars at Copart.com and the No. 30 Copart Tundra will help deliver that message to race fans."
"We're running a new tire at Lowe's on Friday. It's never been raced on a truck, but, Germain Racing has some important experience with this tire that should give the Copart Tundra a headstart on practice Friday. The Cup Series used the tire at Las Vegas, where Max Papis raced our GEICO Camry," said Hillman. "I'm expecting the tire to make the Copart Tundra a little bit tighter than the truck has been at Lowe's in the past, so we'll start off our practice sessions with the chassis setup looser than we would have in years past."
What makes Lowe's Motor Speedway stand out from other tracks?
"Lowe's is easy to over drive the corners, and the groove can move around a little bit, especially in turns three and four. It's a tricky race track. The thing that stands out the most is being able to sleep in my own bed at night -- it might be my favorite feature."
How many Series Have You Raced in at Lowe's?
Is there a new challenge at Lowe's?
"We are racing on a tire that is new to the Truck Series. It's important that Germain Racing has some experience with this tire from our Sprint Cup Series program. We expect the tire to make the Copart Tundra a little more tight than it's been at Lowe's, so we'll prepare the truck by starting with our setup a little more loose."

3. Divide students into eight groups, and distribute copies of the Nuclear Age Timeline (http://www.nuclearfiles.org/chron/). Explain that each group will be assigned a different decade on the timeline to examine through their own brainstorming and through any necessary research, and then theyAssign each group a decade represented on the timeline. Students should first use the timelines to discover answers to the research questions, and then use all available classroom resources to supplement their ideas.o are the key players or countries during this decade, and why?–What technologies or technological advances were invented or developed in this decade?–What were the consequences of the use or development of nuclear weapons in this decade?
4. WRAP-UP/HOMEWORK: Each group develops a presentation to teach the class about the nuclear developments and issues in their assigned decade. Groups class understand which countries were affected by nuclear weapons in military planning and how this affected the United States. Presentations should all include a poster that presents their findings using both thoughtfully-written text and illustrationsinformation to the class in chronological order and similarlydisplay their posters on a wall of the classroom. After presentations, the class should describe any patterns found in the history of nuclear weapons as they are used for military planning. To synthesize their learning, each student writes a brief (one to two page) response to the following prompt: "To what extent should nuclear weapons be used as part of the United States' military planning?Support your answer with factual information drawn from the timeline, thPosture Review. Propose alternative resolutions to military conflicts involving nuclear weapons."governments believe military planning should include nuclear weapons?–Do you think countries should stockpile nuclear arms as part of a military plan?Why or why not?–Could nuclear weapons be used to support military planning in a positive way?Why or why not?–Should military weapons actually be used or kept just as a threat to our enemies?

Abbott presses Congress for an extra $61B to rebuild after Harvey

$466 million for the Port of Houston to “create resiliency” and harden the Houston Ship Channel.
Abbott appointed Sharp, who is the chancellor of Texas A&M; University and a former legislato oversee the commission in early September.
So far, Congress has agreed to spend more than $51 billion on disaster relief in the past two months. But it is unclear what Texas’s share of that money will be because it will be divided between the states and territories devastated by three deadly hurricanes and fatal wildfires.

Bob rode in the Masters 3/4 again and performed much better. He stayed in the top 20 of a 100+ field the whole race. This of course saved him a bunch of matches to burn for the last couple laps. On the final lap he got pinched in turn two and lost some spots after grabbing a handful of brakes. The racing was very aggressive, and he doesn't need any reminders that to stay up in the pack he has to get more aggressive himself. He ended up finishing 31st. Better placing than yesterday and much better riding!

The woman who commissioned two pieces from me (see April 23rd post) to go with two others she'd purchased from Xanadu Gallery sent an email after they'd received the package. She said they really loved the barrel cactus close-up piece, but it wasn't working with the grouping and was like the song form Sesame Street "One of these just doesn't belong here..." HA! I told her I wondered if it would "play well with others" as it had a very dominant personality. She expressed interest in getting another 12"x12" landscape of mine at Xanadu, so we decided she should ship the cactus piece to the gallery and they would send her the landscape. She sent this photo of how the arrangement looks with the watercolor they already owned. They're very happy with the grouping and I think it looks great!

VICENZA, Italy — In 2003-04, the Caserma Ederle community honored nine members of the 173rd Airborne Brigade who died in Iraq. In 2005-06, Americans and Italians mourned 18 members of the Southern European Task Force (Airborne) who lost their lives in Afghanistan.
But no single memorial service during those spans honored as many soldiers as one on Friday. Five Sky Soldiers were killed last week in a pair of deadly incidents in Afghanistan.
Two of the soldiers had strong roots in Vicenza and were married to Italian nationals.
Curry, the top enlisted soldier in Company D of the 1st Battalion, 503rd Infantry Regiment, served enough tours in the city to be a member of four battalions.
He joined the 3rd Battalion, 325th Infantry Regiment in 1987 and returned to the unit after it had been reflagged to the 1st Battalion, 508th Infantry Regiment. He then before rejoining his original battalion — now known as 1-503 — a year before deploying to Afghanistan again.
“My first impression of him was that he was going to do great things for our Army,” Rice said of a meeting five years ago. “And he never let me down."
He said Johnson used to take grief from other soldiers on how devoted he was to his wife, Sara. But “if there was anyone you could count on, Sgt. Johnson was the man,” he said.
Restrepo, Davis and Rogers had spent far less time in Italy. But their friends also had plenty of memories.
Restrepo came a long way to serve in Vicenza and then Afghanistan. He was born in Colombia, and he’ll be buried there.
Martinez said he respected Davis for having strong beliefs and sticking to them. And for Davis’ outlook on life. “Adam knew that life was to be lived, but not too seriously,” he said.
Davis would have turned 20 on Friday.

Search this site: ON ARCHITECTURE Wall of shame or honor?: Locals test-drive the free speech wall
Published online Thursday Jan 12th, 2006 Who would have thought that one of Charlottesville's most provocative architectural projects would be a solitary wall?
Yet the bold and simple design that local architects Peter O'Shea and Rob Winstead came up with for the "free speech wall"– a 55-foot long, seven-foot high chalkboard smack in front of City Hall– has had people talking since it was first proposed nine years ago.
In fact, O'Shea didn't think their design would win because of the argument they knew it would trigger. "I was thinking we wouldn't win because of the potential worries about what people might write on the wall," says O'Shea. Ironically, he says, that's exactly why the design won.
"The Jefferson Center and the jury felt that it best embodied the intention of the First Amendment," says O'Shea. "And went further by encouraging people to actively exercise this right in a public setting."
Like many proponents of the wall, O'Shea believes the debate itself embodies the intention of the project. However, critics say it's more about the design being an ineffective and inappropriate way to honor our First Amendment.
Proponents like Josh Wheeler, associate director of the Jefferson Center, which sponsors the wall, see it as a unique way to encourage free expression. "It was a very courageous decision on the part of City Council," said Wheeler after City Council approved the project in 2001, "and an unprecedented statement by elected officials that the exercise of First Amendment rights are not only tolerated but invited."
Rhetoric like this attracted national media attention, as well as the support of a number of Charlottesville celebrities and philanthropists, including Sissy Spacek, Rita Mae Brown, and John Kluge (who eventually donated $125,000 ), to the project. In addition, says O'Shea, at a public hearing before the Council vote, supporters overwhelmingly out numbered critics.
However, wall critic Kevin Cox says that's because Wheeler and the Jefferson Center went around to schools at UVA and in the County to talk up the project before the hearing. "They basically packed the hearing with supporters, which kind of forced Council's arm to approve the project," says Cox.
That's a charge that Wheeler neither confirms or denies. As Cox points out, "Nobody wants to publicly criticize the monument because they don't want to be labeled as anti-free speech."
However, the now defunct Observer ran an editorial calling the proposed wall "untrue to the spirit of free expression" because it would allow people to say wh In effect, it was a coward's form of free speech. As a result, the editorial predicted, the wall would become an eyesore laced with the kind of profanity and inane scribblings found in bathroom stalls.
Local businessman Tyler Sewell also felt the project was ill-conceived. "In theory, the chalkboard for free speech is a great idea," he wrote on a local blog. "In practice, it will be an ugly eyesore covered with profanity and an ugly embarrassment for th


Detroit is not unique among American cites in its suffering, but it is iconic, and Mark shows us all the agonies of the city in solid, filling language. His words also show, though, that there is and can be hope, and that it comes not from the government or the city elite, but from the people in the neighborhoods when they start to care.

In the first picture, on the left, what looks like a full moon toward the top of the photo...isn't. If you look down to the area between the trees you'll clearly see the crescent moon. So what is the other thing? A "fool" moon perhaps?
In the second photo there's something similar. The crescent moon is brightly visible, but look to the left and just a bit lower, to where a faint orb is caught within the branches of the pine. It looks very much like a full moon, even showing, to my eyes, a hint of the Man in the Moon's face.
Mainly today, I want to talk about the gross out and its role in horror fiction. The gross out occurs when the reader makes the “disgust” face. The reader’s head recoils slightly from the page. The mouth curves back and down and the lips purse slightly as if the person has tasted something foul. The nostrils are flared, not to draw in a scent but rather to push air out so no scent can get in. Imagine what your face does when you smell something that really stinks and you’ll have the disgust face.
Disgust is an emotion, and as such it is capable of being evoked by physical description. Disgust is generally one element of horror, but it is, to my way of thinking, the least important element. Disgust is also easy to evoke, although easier in some readers than in others. I’ve read a lot of horror fiction in my day, for example, and written quite a bit, and it’s pretty hard to gross me out. A scene written purely for the gross out is thus likely to work best on those who read little if any horror. A good horror writer can typically gross out most folks with a snap of the fingers. But all you do then is send those folks away from your work, not draw them in. For the gross out to work it has to be only one element, a minor element, among all the other elements of good storytelling.
To avoid grossing out my blog readers, I’m going to give only vague examples of what I’m talking about below. I recently read Spawn by Shaun Hutson because someone said he was one of the grossest writers out there. The book certainly had a lot of grossness in it. For example, one early scene has hospital workers burning bed linens stained with all manner of bodily fluids. I made the disgust face at the description, so Mr. Hutson achieved his aim there. The problem was, I felt nothing other than disgust. A later description of aborted fetuses worked the same way. Disgust plus disgust does not make horror. It’s more like showing people boogers and watching them recoil.
There! The “pale worms” evoke just a hint of grossness, a hint that doesn’t overwhelm but takes the reader deeper into the place where true horror dwells. That’s when you know you’re in the hands of someone who cares deeply about the craft of writing horror fiction. Moore wants to wring every emotion out of you, not just turn your stomach. That’s the mark of a good writer in general, and of a good horror writer in particular.
I haven’t quite finished Beyond the Porch Light… yet. I have one story to go. So far my favorites have been the title story, and an awesome little tale called “Electrocuting the Clowns.” All the stories are good, however, and I have no reservations about recommending this collection to anyone who likes good storytelling. And if you like to feel a little shiver while you sit and read, while the sun slowly sinks outside your home and the darkness comes creeping, then all the better. Just don’t venture beyond the porch light.

Work is kicking my ass and I’m way behind. So, it’s standard operating procedure for first thing in the new semester. I’m keeping my head above water so far, although with the pouring rain outside at the moment I don’t know how long that will last.
Lana seems to be almost completely recovered from her surgery. She’s already feeling much better than she was before so I’m happy about that.
While listening to the rain and helping students, in the background I’m running “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock,” by T. S. Eliot. If this isn’t a masterpiece then I don’t know what is. I wish I could write a poem this fine.
No time to write poetry now, though. The students are coming, hungry for overrides, in need of schedules, wanting me to fix all their problems with a few taps of my fingers on the keyboard.
I’ll post this when our current returns!
1. Rick over at The Writer and the White Cat had some very kind things to say about Write with Fire and its author. Since I respect Rick's own writing ability I'm very flattered. Thanks, my friend.

First, thanks to everyone who commented on my last post. And thanks to everyone who suggested possibilities for the books I mentioned there. Special thanks to Greg, Writtenwyrd, Don, and Daniel, who did indeed identify some of the books. I owe you folks. I now can put authors and details to “The Secret Staircase,” “Smuggler’s Island, “Claws,” “Listen to the Worm,” “Panther!,” and “My Gift to You.” Don over at Issa’s Untidy Hut came up with the most. I knew my blogging pals were cool.
2. 3:10 to Yuma. It’s a western and I liked it, although it’s no Once Upon a Time in the West. Russell Crowe did a great job as the villain I thought, and had some great one liners. However, there were some letdowns in the orchestration of the whole thing. How does a prisoner in cuffs manage to kill two members of the posse taking him to the prison train without, perhaps, being bound and watched a little more closely after that? On the other hand, this one had by far the best all around cast of the movies I saw. Even the supporting actors did well, and many of them were well known, such as Peter Fonda.
3. Snow White: A Tale of Terror. Sigourney Weaver did a bang up job as the wicked stepmother/witch in this one. I thought she was superb. This was a somewhat loose retelling of the Snow White story but was pretty enjoyable. It was definitely a horror rather than a fantasy. The supporting cast was much weaker than Weaver, and I could kind of see at the beginning why the Stepmother didn’t much like the stepdaughter. I would have wanted to strangle the little priss myself. Some interesting visuals as well.
In past days my record keeping on my books was not always as disciplined as it is today. I know, I'm very very bad. Lana will have to punish me. But, nevertheless, there are a number of books in my list of previously read books that have titles but no author listed. And I have not been able to identify or locate them. I hang my head in shame, I tell you!
In hopes that someone in the blogosphere might have an idea about the authors for these books, I'm going to give the details I know about here. Said details are very slender. But if anyone recognizes any of these I'd appreciate a heads up. So without further ado, I air my dirty book laundry below:
1. Title – The Freak
Time period – I would have read this probably sometime in the 1980s or earlier.
2. Title – Claws
Time period - Again, probably from the 1980s.
Details – I seem to remember it had something to do with either cats or crabs. I originally thought this might be "Night of the Claw" by Jay Ramsey, but after getting that book I don't think so.
3. Title - Smuggler’s Island
Genre – young adult, I'm pretty sure
Time Period – probably from the 1970s or earlier. This is 'not' the Avi book by that name from much later.
4. Title - My Gift to You
Time Period - Some time before the late 1980s. At least that's when I read it.
5. Title - Listen to the Worm
Time Period - Also some time before the late 1980s.
6. Title - The Sun is Up
7. Title - Panther
Genre - Young adult probably
Time Period - Almost certainly the 1970s or earlier
8. Title - The Secret Staircase
Genre - Young adult or children's book
Time Period - Probably from before the early 1980s. This may be one I read to my son.
9. Title - Mystery of the Red Skull
Genre - probably young adult
Time Period - before the 1980s, probably in the early 1970s.
Well, there are more but that's probably enough for this post.

If you get a chance while over at X-Dell's site, check out the Golden Ganesh widget at top right and listen to the episodes of this ensemble audio story. Very pulpy with some neat twists and turns. Highly recommended.
And here's where first impressions play a role. Despite the fact that I've been told over and over that King's book was not indicative of the Hard Case Crime list, and that the other books really, really are good, I've not picked up a single one. Intellectually, I'm sure I probably would like some of the other Hard Case novels. But, there are a lot of books to spend my money on. And when it comes time to shell out that money, I have, so far, been unable to persuade myself to take a chance on another Hard Case book instead of a book that feels like it has more promise.
2. Years ago I read Samarkand by Graham Diamond. When I bought it, it seemed like a book that was right down my alley. An exotic setting. A city under siege. Swords and sorcery. But I didn't care much for it (although it was considerably better than The Coyote Kid). Diamond has at least half a dozen more fantasy novels with equally tantalizing settings. I picked up one at a book sale years ago for 50 cents but I haven't read it and probably never will read another Diamond book. When I look at my to-be-read pile, there's just too many books above the Diamond one that promise more.
Well, Lana had surgery this morning but she came through with flying colors. She's been sleeping all day and I'm sure she'll be very sore and not feeling too well when she wakes up. She has to spend the night in the hospital but I'll bring her home in the morning. It will be weird sleeping at home without her tonight. Please keep her in your thoughts.

But… (You knew a “but” was coming didn’t you?), there’s one thing I miss about the old book hunting days. To channel for a moment my inner nerd, I remember the thrill of finding an unknown used bookstore and going in to browse the shelves for the first time. I had a list of books I wanted, although I didn’t generally have to carry the list with me. I knew in my head what I was looking for. I’d scan along the rows of colorful spines, checking for an obscure Robert E. Howard book here, searching out an Alan Burt Akers volume there. And OH the excitement when I found something I’d wanted but didn’t have. I generally didn’t ‘kiss’ the covers. Not physically anyway. But it was like finding a gold nugget in a pan of dross.
I still remember with absolute clarity one of my favorite moments in personal book hunting history. In high school I’d borrowed a book from my brother-in-law called Meat on the Hoof, about college football at the University of Texas. The book stayed with me, and when I was in my early thirties I began searching for it in used bookstores everywhere I went. Although I remembered the title and the cover, I had no idea who had written it. But I wanted that book. I even called my brother-in-law but he no longer had the copy. I couldn’t find it anywhere else either.
Would it have been the same if I’d been able to search it out on the net? I know from other experiences of finding books via the net that it would not have been. Oh, I still get a sense of excitement and pleasure, but it’s like having a glass or two of wine with dinner as opposed to the buzz of those first couple of pitchers of beer on a lazy afternoon in a darkened bar when you’ve got Friday night ahead of you.

I decided to send a few items in. I went back through various stories or novels that I’ve started but not continued and culled out what I thought were the most interesting openings. Then I added a dash of editing to get them down to the 25 word limit and try to make them fit the hint fiction concept. Below are some of the ones that didn’t make the cut for me to submit.
The boy looked up to see dust approaching the ferry. Within the dust was a horse, on the horse a rider, all turned to gray.
During the day she cried. Long and hard by herself. And outside the grey wind blew chilled and lonely. She had so much to give.
Swiftly, along dirt roads and through fields of yellow grain, the dry leaves and dust fled, running from the evening storm that stalked behind them.
On the first day of the month of Harps, he had not returned. And on the second the wind blew black with dust.
You see them occasionally in your home town. They are always passing through. The fangs in their eyes give them away.
Predators seldom stalk predators. But when it happens…
Also, three more of my blog colleagues have posted very nice things about Write With Fire and have even spoken highly of me. And I didn’t even pay them. If you get a chance check out:
1. Travis’s Tuesday, July 28th post over at his blog.
2. C. S. Harris’s commentary on her blog.
3. Greg Schwartz, who I had made a note to myself to add to this list and then somehow let his post slip my mind, also commented on the book and offers some other interesting info over on his blog.
Thanks Trav and Candy and Lana. And thanks Greg. Sorry I missed that link first time around. And thanks to everyone who has already mentioned the book. Much appreciated.

I imagine it would freeze just fine. Enjoy! :)

Thank you, Aiga! Have a wonderful Valentine’s Day! :)
These came out great! I baked mine at 325 for the same amount of time and they were perfect! Thank you for such a great idea!!!
Hi! These look so great. Wondering if you can chill the dough for more than an hour? Like overnight ? And then make the next day?
Absolutely. You will need to let it warm up a bit on the counter before you can properly roll it though as it will firm up quite a bit overnight.

-performing schools and student subgroups for support and improvement according to new methodologies until the beginning of the 2018-2019 school year. Then, in April of 2017, the USDE sent a follow-up Dear Colleague Letter to offer more guidance “to ensure an orderly transition to the ESEA, as amended by the ESSA” (USDE, 2017).
In a Memorandum to Chief of State School Officers, Erica Navarro, Director of Budget Services, explains that most grant programs funded by the USDE are “forward-funded,” which means that “funds are typically appropriated in advance of the upcoming school year and are obligated on July 1 (and in some programs, on October 1 as well) of the fiscal year” (USDE, 2017). This means that Department formula grant programs for the current 2016-2017 school year were funded by the FY2016 Appropriations Act. As for the 2017-2018 school year, formula grant programs under ESSA are funded by FY2017 appropriations, and the budget for FY2018 will affect district spending in the 2018-2019 school year.
Appropriations for FY2017 resulted in a $447 million increase from the level authorized in ESSA; a total of $15.5 billion dollarsNCLB School Improvement Grants (SIG) program.
This increase will help states implement ESSA programs in the 2017-2018 school year. ESSA allows up to 7% of Title I funding to be set aside for this purpose. Another piece of guidance that the USDE offers to “ensure orderly transition” to ESSA is to the States that do not distribute all of the school improvement funds for FY2017 to schools on the “needs improvement” list in the 2017-2018. The USDE advises that these States carry over the remainder of FY2017 school improvement funds to the 2018-2019 school year when full ESSA implementation is expected: when the State has an approved plan, newly identified schools, and has implemented its revised methodology andstrategies.
The chart below shows the changes in funding levels in Title I-A for FY2016-FY2018 inclusive of the amounts originally authorized in ESSA.
Title IV consolidated nearly 50 NCLB grant programs to create a large block grant that funds everything from educational technology, computer science, social-emotional learning, the arts, music, STEM e. The new spending bill has instituted significant changes. First of all, Title IV-A funding levels have been altered. The grant programs in operation during the 2016-2017 school year—still the NCLB grants—were at a funding level that was $122 million less than the FY2017 appropriations for the new Title IV-A block grant program. Nevertheless, FY2017 appropriations for Title IV-A saw a dramatic reduction from the amount that was originally authorized in ESSA; a cut of $1.6 billion. Secondly, since funding for this program is low, the new spending bill allows States to award Title IV-A funds on a competitive grant basis rather than by formula. If a State chooses to distribute the grants on a competitive basis, the State must ensure that 20% goes to well-rounded education, 20% goes to safe and healthy students, and while 60% of the remaining funds can go toward any or all three categories including up to 25% of funds for educational technology (but only 15% may be spent on educational technology if funds are distributed by formula). Districts can apply to one or all three categories under Title IV-A, yet a needs assessment is required to submit to the State with priority given to districts showing higher need. The FY2018 proposal has eliminated this large block grant program.
Below are the changes in funding levels for Title IV-A.
On May 23, 2017, the President released the FY2018 Budget proposal which eliminates a number of programs under ESSA. The proposal aims to increase overall funds in Title I, the grant for disadvantaged students, mainly to facilitate school choice while eliminating Title II-Part A and Title
