PREMIER LEAGUE READY FOR NEW SEASON 2017/18
The Premier League is ready to begin a new season - and the prospect could barely be more mouthwatering.
After a summer in which transfer fees have soared to new heights all over the world - topped by Neymar's record-breaking move from Barcelona to Paris Saint-Germain - fans booking corporate hospitality facilities at Premier League venues will have an array of new stars to see in action.
Champions Chelsea go into the season with Alvaro Morata leading the attack. The former Real Madrid and Juventus striker, who had also interested Manchester United, has been signed as a direct replacement for Diego Costa, who looks set to rejoin Atletico Madrid when their transfer embargo is lifted. Antonio Conte's men have also signed defensive midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko from Monaco, allowing Nemanja Matic to join Manchester United.
Manchester may provide the biggest challenge to Chelsea as both United boss Jose Mourinho and City coach Pep Guardiola have been splashing the cash. As well as buying Matic to boost the midfield, United have brought in versatile defender Victor Lindelof and Everton stroker Romelu Lukaku, who had been linked with a return to Chelsea. A further signing is expected, which may or may not include Internazionale winger Ivan Perisic.
As a side that dominated game after game at home without being able to convert their chances, United know exactly where they need to improve. Mourinho usually wins the league in his second season at a club, but can he do so again?
City's biggest moves have been at the back, with attacking full-back Kyle Walker signed from Spurs as one of three full-backs as Guardiola has moved to tackle a key weakness from last season. After Claudio Bravo's erratic form of last season, Guardiola sanctioned a world record fee for a goalkeeper to acquire Brazilian Ederson Moraes to go with world record for a defender, the £52 million splashed out on Benjamin Mendy. With Bernardo Silva signed to boost the midfield and Sergio Aguero retained up front, this season could be the one to show if the tiki-taka style Pep used so effectively at Barcelona can bring a Premier League title.
Many judges would find it hard to look past Chelsea and the Manchester clubs. Tottenham fans will be disappointed with their lack of transfer activity, but with Delli Ali and Harry Kane emerging as world class talents, they will still have a chance this year. The biggest concern, however, might be the team's recent poor performances at Wembley, as it will be their home ground this season.
Across London, Arsenal have also had a fairly quiet summer as they adjust to their first season outside the Champions League in two decades. French striker Alexandre Lacazette may boost their goal output, but the biggest boost for the fans will be if they can hold on to Alexi Sanchez after a summer of speculation.
Liverpool are also trying to hold on to their best player after rejecting bids of £72 million and £90 million for Philippe Coutinho from Barcelona. They need to keep him at Anfield and persist in acquiring Virgil Van Dijk from Southampton if they are to challenge.
The next nine months will also be exciting ones for the promoted sides, with Newcastle back in the big time and both Brighton and Huddersfield Town playing in the Premier League for the first time.
As ever, the battles at either end of the table will be fascinating. And could there be another team that "does a Leicester"? The former champions start the campaign at Arsenal tomorrow night (August 11th). Perhaps they will surprise the footballing world again.

Infiltration Leukaemic blasts can infiltrate any organ. Bone pain is a direct consequence of marrow disease. Infiltration of the meninges, resulting in headache or cranial nerve palsies, is particularly common in ALL and consequently lumbar puncture is mandatory in newly diagnosed patients with ALL. Hepatosplenomegaly is frequently present at diagnosis in ALL, and mediastinal enlargement is well documented in T-cell ALL.
Novel therapies There is clearly a need for the development of new treatments in AML. The success of imatinib (Glivec®; Novartis) in patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) has led to the hope that it may be possible to identify similar targets in AML. Although there has been some encouraging preliminary experience in AML with drugs which target dysregulated genes, such as flt 3 or ras, in AML these agents have not as yet fulfilled their promise. Specific management of ALL Treatment of ALL follows the same principles as for AML with three main exceptions.

2008 Top 10 Prospects at the Half
Ryan Chaffee was ranked #6 last November on the FutureAngels.com Top 10 Prospects list. He'll represent the Cedar Rapids Kernels in the Midwest League All-Star Game.
The 2008 FutureAngels.com Top 10 Prospects report was published last November. We're now about halfway through the 2009 season, so let's take a quick look at how they're proceeding.
A disclaimer … Prospect rankings are always shifting, whether it's a professional analysis by Baseball America , or semi-pro reporting by those such as Baseball Prospectus , John Sickels and myself. They're simply a snapshot in time. Some may claim their expertise is infallible (those would be the amateur/fan sites), but the truth is we're all guessing based on the facts as we have them at the time, and what's most important to us for the future. I have the advantage of following the Angels full-time, while those others scatter their resources across thirty organizations.
Presented in reverse order, just as they were last November:
10. Luis Jimenez 3B — I wrote last November that "Lucho" had been relegated to DH duty since August 8 after injuring his throwing shoulder in a game. He wound up undergoing labrum surgery and is currently on rehab at the Angels' minor league complex in Tempe. When I visited during extended spring training, the scuttlebutt was that he might DH the rest of the year, but so far he's still disabled. How well he recovers may determine if he remains at the Hot Corner or moves to a corner outfield position.
9. Matt Brown 3B-1B — Brownie turned heads in spring training when he posted an AVG/OBP/SLG of .468/.527/.787 (47 AB), but he's just another example of how much caution should be used when analyzing spring numbers. Matt hit just .189 in April with only one homer. He's picked it up a bit since then, but overall his numbers are still just .223/.324/.429. Originally a third baseman, he's played mostly first base to give him another position on the résumé. He turns 27 in August and can be a six-year minor league free agent this winter if the Angels don't protect him on the 40-man roster.
8. Kevin Jepsen RHP — Jepsen injured his lower back early in the season and went on the disabled list April 21 with tightness and spasms. The Angels sent him to Salt Lake first as a rehab assignment and then outright when he came off the DL, but his 9.00 ERA and 2.56 WHIP (Hits + Walks)/(Innings Pitched) in 18 innings showed little to suggest progress. The Angels recalled him anyway on June 10 when they demoted Jose Arredondo; in five innings, he's allowed four runs on eight hits, struck out four and walked none.
7. Peter Bourjos CF — Bourjos has fulfilled expectations with Double-A Arkansas, earning a spot on the Texas League North Division All-Star team. Due to a sprained left wrist suffered during batting practice on June 4, he won't be able to participate, but up to that point his numbers were excellent for a 22-year old in Double-A. His AVG/OBP/SLG were .316/.366/.454; because his home park is so pitcher-friendly, it's important to note that his home/away splits are very similar so there's no reason for "adjustment" to his overall numbers. Pete could improve his OBP by taking more walks, and he could work at reducing his strikeout rate (once every 5.2 AB), but those are common nitpicks for young hitters at upper levels. In the stolen base department, he was 14 for 20, a bit of a slowdown in his usual theft rate. His defense in center field has been excellent, having not committed a single error and among the league leaders in outfield putouts when injured.
6. Ryan Chaffee RHP — I took a lot of grief from the amateur/fan sites for this one, but so far Chaffee has shown he deserved the recognition. Drafted in the third round of the June 2008 draft, Chaffee was unable to pitch professionally last year due to a broken foot that eventually required corrective surgery. His winter workouts in Tempe drew rave reviews. Although he was projected to report to Rookie-A Orem in June, he was assigned out of extended spring training to Class A Cedar Rapids in April 25 as pitching promotions cascaded throughout the organization in the wake of injuries at the parent club level. Chaffee didn't disappoint. Despite his late arrival, he was voted by league managers onto the Midwest League West Division All-Star team. His overall numbers to date are a 2.83 ERA in 11 starts (60.1 IP) with a 66:29 SO:BB ratio. His groundouts to all other outs (GO/AO) ratio is an outstanding 3.38, and his AVG against is .176. Ryan turned 21 on May 18; I won't be surprised if he gets a promotion to Rancho Cucamonga after the All-Star break, certainly before season's end.
5. Nick Adenhart RHP — Despite a poor 2008, Nick made the parent club roster out of spring training after the Angels lost John Lackey and Ervin Santana. He made his first start on April 8 in Anaheim against Oakland, and pitched six shutout innings. Later that night, he was killed by an alleged drunk driver. The loss to baseball is insignificant compared to that suffered by his family, loved ones, and the many people whose lives he touched.
4. Hank Conger C — The first question to be answered was, "Will Hank Conger ever catch again?" The answer is yes. He's caught in 40 of the 58 games in which he's appeared this year, having twice caught in seven straight games when he was in the lineup, so no questions are left about his shoulder holding up. His defense has been acceptable too — a .980 fielding average, only six errors so far, and he's thrown out 14 of 39 runners (35.9%), which ranks third among Texas League regular catchers, although the caught-runners stat is dependent upon the ability of a pitcher to hold a runner on base. So let's talk about his offense. That aspect of his game has been disappointing, although it's important to remember he's a 21-year old only two steps from the majors; there will be guys younger than him starting their pro careers this week at Orem and Tempe. His overall AVG/OBP/SLG are .265/.318/.352. I've written many times that the Travelers play in perhaps the most pitcher-friendly park in the league, yet surprisingly his offense numbers are much better at home (.296/.346/.417) than on the road (.234/.282/.287). One good sign is that his strikeout rate is excellent for a power hitter, once every 5.8 AB. He may wind up repeating the Texas League in 2010 if the power numbers don't pick up, but that was the one aspect of his game no one worried about until now. Everything else is looking good.
3. Mark Trumbo 1B — There was every reason to think Trumbo would have a good 2009 with the Travelers. In 132 AB at the end of 2008, Mark posted an AVG/OBP/SLG of .276/.311/.496; on the road, those numbers were .357/.410/.661 (61 AB). But so far, he's failed to repeat that performance in his first full Double-A season. His overall numbers are .238/.288/.383 (240 AB), with his road numbers .242/.278/.371 (124 AB). He's shown some life in his last ten games, batting .333/.350/.513 with five doubles and a triple. Defense is always hard to measure statistically, but if you compare his numbers to the league leaders they're very competitive. Hopefully he builds on his recent streak into the second half.
2. Jordan Walden RHP — Walden missed a month (April 21 to May 19) due to an inflamed right elbow muscle, so it's hard to get a read on how much that's been affecting him. His overall numbers are a bit lackluster — 4.12 ERA, 1.63 WHIP, .298 AVG — but in June they're much better — 1.90 ERA, 1.31 WHIP, .258 AVG. In his four June starts, he's struck out 27 in 23.2 IP, suggesting the elbow problem may have passed. I like that he's given up only three homers (one in June), which is a good sign as when he's going well he rarely gives up dingers.
1. Will Smith LHP — Another controversial ranking for which I caught grief, but overall I'm still confident about his top ranking. (I will note, though, that last November I predicted Chaffee could be #1 for 2009.) Will's numbers are a bit deceiving, because he got hurt early when he strained his left hamstring in his second start on April 18. Smith returned three weeks later on May 7 and got bombed, which I dismiss because he hadn't pitched in a while. If you look at his numbers since then, he's had eight starts, 54.1 IP, a 2.98 ERA, 1.05 WHIP, 48 strikeouts and 10 walks. Not quite the insane 76:6 SO:BB ratio in 73 IP last year at Orem, but still very impressive for a 19-year old in the Midwest League. (He turns 20 on July 10.) The injury probably cost him a nomination to the All-Star Game. A defensive note — six of nine runners against him have been caught stealing, but that could be credited to his catcher as well as Will. In any case, this 6'5″ southpaw (with room to grow) continues to look as if he may evolve into a dominant pitcher, with a late-season promotion to Advanced-A Rancho Cucamonga not out of the question.
UPDATE June 23, 2009 10:30 AM PDT — This morning's Cedar Rapids Gazette had a lengthy article about Ryan Chaffee and the other Kernels chosen for tonight's Midwest League All-Star Game. Kernels manager Bill Mosiello had this to say about Chaffee:
"He needs to make a lot of changes," Kernels Manager Bill Mosiello said. "He needs to not try and trick every hitter and pitch around everybody. Like the other day, he gives up one run but throws 98 pitches in five innings. If he continues to do that, he's not going to be able to pitch very long.
"But he's been good since day one. Sometimes in their minds, they are developing. Maybe they're not physically showing it, but I think he's learning … He's going through the process, still learning. It's like I told him, it's pretty neat to learn like that giving up only one run. Hopefully he'll make the adjustments in his next start and as he gets older."

The Court will grant a Judgment of Divorce if it is satisfied that there has been a breakdown of the marriage relationship to the extent the objects of matrimony have been destroyed and that there is no reasonable likelihood that the marriage can be preserved. I often hear a new client report that their spouse has told them that they will not "give them a divorce". However, no party "gives" the other party a divorce. Although Michigan is a no-fault divorce state, fault can be a factor considered by the Court in relation to custody, parenting time, spousal support and property division disputes.
Where must I file for divorce?
A complaint for divorce can only be filed in the State of Michigan if the person starting the divorce case has resided in Michigan at least 180 days before filing for divorce. A divorce may be filed in a county where the person filing the action has resided at least 10 days immediately prior to filing the action.
No divorce may be granted prior to the statutory waiting period in a divorce action. For cases involving minor children, a divorce may not be granted before six months from date of filing. In cases without minor children, the statutory waiting period is 60 days. Once the parties have reached agreement on all issues in their divorce action and that agreement is incorporated into a document called a Judgment of Divorce, which the Friend of the Court has approved where minor children are involved, the Court will take the necessary testimony, review, sign and permit the filing of the Judgment which results in the granting of a divorce. Obstacles to prompt resolution are disagreements concerning custody, parenting time, and child support, identifying the assets and liabilities that make up the marital estate and determining their value; reaching agreement on spousal support and whether the Court will have to resolve the dispute where parties are unable to agree. Mediation is frequently used to help parties and their attorneys come to an agreement.
What happens if there are children from the marriage?
Where children are involved, the law frequently refers to the "best interests" of the children. Ideally, the best interests of children are served by parents who can agree, compromise and work together for the best interests of their children. However, that isn't always possible. Where there are minor children, issues of Custody, Parenting Time and Child support are among the child-related issues to be determined in a divorce. The Court is required to make an independent determination of the arrangement that serves the "best interests" of the child, even if the parents have reached an agreement. Custody includes decision making authority and physical care of the children and is principally concerned with control over the children. Parenting time is focused on obtaining a parenting schedule that facilitates and supports the parent-child relationship to the immediate circumstances of the parents and children. Child support is premised upon an objective formula applied to the parenting time arrangement after consideration of the parent's respective incomes.
Yes. Your name change can be included in the Judgment of Divorce.
What will my divorce cost me?
The cost of a divorce varies depending upon a number of variables. The duration and number of disputes and whether those disputes require court resolution correlate to the cost of a divorce. The devil is frequently in the details, however. Wilson Kester welcomes the opportunity to discuss ways our client's can control their costs.

@bnnm: neither in_vgmstream nor foo_vgmstream want to play Fast RMX files (no matter if I rename them to lopus or not)
Does it need additional .txth definitions?
by simonmkwii at 1:34 AM EDT on May 6, 2018
Yeah, Fast RMX opuses don't play.
by marcusss at 7:52 AM EDT on May 6, 2018
Hi bnnm, I tried txtp but no luck so far..
So if..
Song001a.ogg is intro
Song002b.ogg is body with loop
Then simply create a txtp such as Song001.txtp and inside there has to be the lines
# blah blah by marcusss
Song001.txtp
Song001a.ogg
Song001b.ogg
So you would play the .ogg such as Song001a.ogg and it will play Song001b immediately after or the txtp file? Stupid Q but so far no luck either way while using the latest foobar release. My foobar updated today.
Fast RMX still doesn't play, I tried every single version of the plugin in each different player.
by bnnm at 8:49 AM EDT on May 6, 2018
forgot .lopus, should be updated soon.
@AnonRunzes - try txth
@marcusss:
- join "segments" (intro+body):
#files must have same number of channels
Song001_intro.ogg
Song001_body.ogg
loop_start_segment = 2
- join "layers" (ex. main+vocals):
#files must have same number of samples
Song001_main.ogg
Song001_vocals.ogg
So you want the first one.

>I changed it to 22khz. Which tracks are supposed to be 24khz?
I'm sorry for any misunderstanding, there was probably a typo in my earlier post, I only meant to say that 7 BGMs (namely AV~ALL_3596__Music.stream, then #3597, 3598, 3599, 3600, 3601 & 3602) should definitely sound @22,050 Hz but I didn't know for sure if remaining ingame tracks must be played back @22 KHz too. It's OK in my book if they are all played @22,050 Hz now.
And on an unrelated note, do you think it's possible to play headerless interleaved XMA1 data (3 stereo layers per file) using some special TXTH or TXTP? I'm reripping a very old X360 title and obviously want to avoid any unnecessary transmogrification.
The last time this game was ripped those multi-layered tracks were rebuilt to multiple 2ch XMAs with XMA_Parse.exe and a ToWAV-compatible header was added with a respective BMS. You see this isn't the way nowadays and I'd like to make my rerip as proper & final as it can get.
So may I know if such files are potentially playable or you need samples to give answer? They should use 0x8000 blocksize (default for XMA_Parse.exe) & start offsets 0x0, 0x800 & 0x1000 for layers #1, 2 & 3. The game in question is Full auto.
Edit (update on Freekstyle sample rate issue): I found 2 tracks by Don Veca on YouTube and can now confirm that they (AV~ALL_3604__Music.stream & FEND~FE4_0375__Music.stream to be precise) should be played with 22,050 Hz.
I also checked out that single licensed song by Dry cell and am sure that 22 KHz is correct frequency value for the track.
edited 12:15 PM EDT May 7, 2018
If it's normal XMA1 (and probably is), you can make a 6ch GENH/TXTH and should play, XMA multichannel internally uses layers.
If the layers are actually custom you could deinterleave, make 3 GENH/TXTH then another TXTP to join all 3.

Q: Check if UDP socket is runing on a certain port, close it, then run it again I am working with UDP sockets, I am facing a certain issue that when a code is run for the first time it works, but when it is run for the second time it gives me this error:
at _handle.lookup (dgram.js:266:18)
at _combinedTickCallback (internal/process/next_tick.js:142:11)
at process._tickCallback (internal/process/next_tick.js:181:9)

I deduced that this error is issued because the port is still in use, so I am trying to work on a sample code that checks if a socket is running on a certain port, if yes close it and then create the socket again on the same port.
Here is the sample code:
var PORT = 7777;
var HOST = '10.0.1.10';

var dgram = require('dgram');
var server = dgram.createSocket('udp4');

gener(server, PORT, HOST);

function gener(sock, prt, hst){
        sock.close();
        sock.bind(prt, hst);
}

server.on('listening', function () {
    var address = server.address();
    console.log('UDP Server listening on ' + address.address + ":" + address.port);
});

server.on('message', function (message, remote) {
    console.log(remote.address + ':' + remote.port +' - ' + message);

});

When I run it, it gives me the following error:
dgram.js:638
    throw new errors.Error('ERR_SOCKET_DGRAM_NOT_RUNNING');
    ^

Error [ERR_SOCKET_DGRAM_NOT_RUNNING]: Not running
    at Socket._healthCheck (dgram.js:638:11)
    at Socket.bind (dgram.js:186:8)
    at gener (/home/caracall/Desktop/server.js:11:18)
    at Object.<anonymous> (/home/caracall/Desktop/server.js:7:1)
    at Module._compile (module.js:653:30)
    at Object.Module._extensions..js (module.js:664:10)
    at Module.load (module.js:566:32)
    at tryModuleLoad (module.js:506:12)
    at Function.Module._load (module.js:498:3)
    at Function.Module.runMain (module.js:694:10)

A: This is the issue:
function gener(sock, prt, hst){
        sock.close();
        sock.bind(prt, hst);
}

You definitely can not close a socket and then expect "bind" to succeed immediately afterwards.  You need to create new socket.  You probably want something closer to this:
function gener(sock, prt, hst){
        if (sock) {
            sock.close();
            sock = null;
        }
        sock = dgram.createSocket('udp4');
        sock.bind(prt, hst);
}

A: You are attempting to bind with a closed socket, that's why Error ERR_SOCKET_DGRAM_NOT_RUNNING is thrown. Please refer to the Node.js document:

If binding fails, an 'error' event is generated. In rare case (e.g. attempting to bind with a closed socket), an Error may be thrown.

To check whether a certain port is occupied, and kill the owner process (dangerous operation), you can use kill-port:
const kill = require('kill-port');
kill(7777);

OPD and Ole Miss ASB release statement in support of rideshare ordinance
Published 6:04 pm Thursday, January 20, 2022
A taxi driver waits for a customer on the Square in Oxford, Miss. on Tuesday, October 11, 2011.(Bruce Newman)
The Oxford Police Department and the Ole Miss Associated Student Body released a statement voicing their support for the ride share ordinance and offer information about the Board of Aldermen's adopted ordinance.
Discussions started for the Square Transportation Hubs in September of 2019. In March of 2021, city officials met with the Senior Operations and Logistics Manager of Uber and Marketing Operations Associate, and the Senior Manager of Government and Transit Partnership of Lyft.
Conversations continued in the fall to include the ASB. City officials then met with local taxi owners, ASB members and executives from Uber and Lyft. Both Uber and Lyft reviewed the city's proposed locations and pickup times, discussed several possible solutions to increase safety and relieving congestion, and ultimately supported the city's proposal.
A lighting consultant reviewed the existing infrastructure to confirm safe levels of light at each location. In October of 2021, the ASB passed a senate resolution on supporting the creation of the Square Transportation on Hubs. In the fall of 2021, the city of Oxford Board of Alderman held three separate public hearings to discuss the proposed ordinance and gather the public feedback which resulted in the adoption of the ordinance.
"The City of Oxford and Oxford Police Department's ultimate goal with the creation of the Square Transportation Hubs is to ensure the safety and enjoyment of downtown patrons, not create more arrests," said the statement.
The statement reports that the OPD made 680 arrests for public intoxication in 2015 and the law enforcement agency has seen a steady decrease in those stats since that year. In 2021, the Oxford Police Department made 249 arrests for public intoxication.
"The mission of the Square Transportation Hubs is to create safe and efficient pickup locations in the downtown area," reads the statement. "On any busy night, traffic around the Square can become gridlocked which delays getting a safe ride home. This plan allows drivers to pickup riders more efficiently. Three pickup locations were selected based on proximity to bars and restaurants and accessible and safe waiting areas. Location based pickup is common practice in entertainment districts in other cities."
The city established established a downtown district years ago and added the OPD Safe Site location for the purpose of ensuring safety and keeping the entertainment area thriving.
Security cameras, lights, marked parking locations, and other precautions were all part of the safety measures put in place. If you ever feel unsafe or uncomfortable, reach out to the OPD at their Safe Site tent or at 662-232-2400.

AB Computer Repair and data recovery for service in Newbury Park.
Deciphering an unknown language is a challenge even for veteran linguists. But in July, MIT computer scientists Regina Barzilay proved that a computer can do the job well and with astonishing speed. She and her colleagues developed a program that deciphered large chunks of Ugaritic, an ancient Middle Eastern language, in just a few hours.
Barzilay used a statistical approach that compared Ugaritic with Hebrew, a known related language. By assessing structural similarities between the two, her software calculated the probability that a particular Ugaritic word was a cognate – a functional equivalent – of a selected Hebrew word. (The French pain and Spanish pan are an example of a cognate pair; both mean "bread.") Because Ugaritic had already been decoded by scholars, the MIT teem was able to confirm the program's success.
Barzilay thinks the software could tackle languages that no human has been able to crack, even if it is not obvious which known tongue it most strongly resembles. "This technique allows you to quickly test several candidate languages to see which is closest," she says. She plans to set it loose on one of the dozen or so undeciphered ancient languages, perhaps beginning with Etruscan, once spoken in what is now northern Italy.

When using two colors on one stamp, I usually use Stampin' Markers to ink up the stamp but today I tried something a bit different. I stamped the image onto my Stamp-A-Ma-Jig stamp positioner, lined the image up onto my piece of Very Vanilla cardstock just where I wanted it, then I slide a 3x3 Post-It note under the stamp positioner and carefully covered up the stem and leaves of the flower. I removed the stamp positioner, stamped the flower in Pool Party ink, and reversed the process! I think the image stamped very cleanly!
The card base is NOT Old Olive cardstock, but rather is one of the papers from the Etcetera Designer Series Paper pack! I glanced right over it at first because there is a very large pattern on the paper but on second glance, I realized I could cut out around the pattern and have a nice crisp backdrop for the other delightful pattern paper in the same pack. And the colors were green and blue...perfect for a hydrangea!!
And isn't the font on this sentiment amazing? It just soooo girly!! Love it!
I didn't feel that the card needed much more so I used some simple Linen Thread and a double bow with a bitty button for jewelry.
Hello there! It's been awhile since I last posted...my creative mojo took a back seat to some health issues but I'm feeling much better. I spent all of yesterday stamping, it felt wonderful!
A few weeks ago I posted a card that utilized the color scheme I saw on a package of napkins at the grocery store (that still cracks me up, never know when inspiration will strike!).
Isn't it FUN!!! It's so bright and cheery! You'll laugh at my color inspiration this time...I knew I would need to emboss the cupcakes to make them stand out amongst all that white so I looked to see what color embossing powders I own. Tangerine Tango, check. Melon Mambo, check. Wild Wasabi, check. I'm glad they go together so well because those were the only bright colors I own, lol! Actually, I think it's probably Stampin' Up! doing it's job behind the scenes, quietly making it easier for stampers to be successful!
I kept the color order of the cupcakes and the banners the same to provide visual continuity and kept the green cardstock in the middle for the same reason. I put the Melon Mambo cardstock layer at the bottom as it is the visually stronger color and the card would be off balance if it were on top.
I added a bit of Dazzling Diamonds glitter to the cupcakes to give them some added pizzazz and two little Candy Dots...love, love, love them! Sooooo much easier than brads...if I don't get them placed perfectly I can quickly adjust their placement!
I've been working on some Halloween cards so please check back soon!

A romániai Király-erdő délkeleti részén fekvő Mézgedi-cseppkőbarlangot () a 20. század elején még Európa legnagyobb barlangjai közé sorolták. Egyéb elnevezései: Czárán-barlang, Czárán-cseppkőbarlang, Meziádi-barlang, Meziádi-cseppkőbarlang, Mézegdi-cseppkőbarlang.

Fekvése
Belényestől 22 km-re északra eső Mézged (Meziád) községtől északnyugatra található.

Története
A barlang feltárása Czárán Gyula (1847–1906) természetbúvár nevéhez fűződik. Ő volt az, aki feltárta és járhatóvá, látogathatóvá tette; útjelzésekkel, lépcsőkkel látta el, és ő készítette róla az első leírást is. Emléktáblája ma is ott áll a barlang előcsarnokában. Róla nevezték el később a barlangot is, mely az ország első kiépített barlangjainak egyike volt.

A bejárat kapuzata 16 méter széles és 10 méter magas. Előcsarnoka közel 200 méter hosszú, mely után következik az óriás méretű barlang, mely mintegy 200 ölnyi hosszúságban, egyenes irányban nyúlik befelé. A barlangból ágaznak szét a folyosók, és ritka szépségű cseppkőalakzatok láthatók itt. A legnagyobb különlegessége, hogy három emelete van, melyek egymás fölött keresztben húzódnak, s e barlangból ered a Meziád-patak is.

A barlang hosszát a későbbi feltárások 4774 méterben állapították meg.

A 20. század elején végzett ásatások során a barlangban, az úgynevezett "csontteremben" sok őskorból származó csontleletet találtak, amelyek a mára már kihalt barlangi medvétől (Ursus spelaeus) származnak.

Twice a year I like to give myself a little treat and Become Ill. This provides a welcome break for my enemies and a useful reminder of the fallibility of the body to my allies. I celebrate by taking to my couch and texting everyone I have ever met minute-by-minute updates on my condition, to teach them that life is stern and life is earnest and that I need someone to bring me crackers. The following are the only ten remedies I have ever applied to a malady of the flesh. None of them work – nothing works – but they do pass the time, and there's something to be said for that.
A blue Powerade bottle, half-full and left in the car for at least fourteen hours until it becomes sun-hot and faded, powerfully swigged. Wince afterwards, as if you have just taken a shot in a movie. Really telegraph it for the seats in the back of the theater.
Boil water for tea, but then do not make tea. Order a new tea kettle online from Target, then let it sit on the front porch until one of your more enterprising neighbors steals it. They deserve it. They are canny, supple-skinned, and their lungs and guts are full of oxygen and healthy bacteriums.
Fall asleep only at the worst possible times. Once at 7am, then again at 1pm, then again at 5pm, then never again for the next 48 hours.
Purchase every possible over-the-counter remedy targeted towards your specific symptoms, then leave a pair of nail scissors half-embedded in the blister-pack casing and take none of them.
After nine days, give in and make an appointment with your doctor. Lie to her about something relatively unimportant, then agree to follow up with a visit to the lab and fail to appear.
Throw up in your car. The sense of utter degradation and powerlessness will unlock something really new and interesting in your personal or professional life sometime in the subsequent six weeks.
Un-quit smoking. This will not help, but it will feel profoundly amazing for about 30 seconds, then worse than anything has ever felt before in your life for the next 18 hours, which will at least be a change of pace. Or it will make you throw up again.
Apologize to someone you have not spoken to in a few months for something they do not remember or care about, preferably over text, then ask them to tell you how work is going.
Put as many ice packs as you can in between your calves, then fall asleep again.
Speak unkindly to your cat for something he cannot help doing, then burst into tears.
There may be another loose blue Powerade rolling around in the trunk of your car. If all else fails, you still (probably) have that.

November 10, 2020 November 10, 2020 ~ ShakespearesGal
When I was a little girl I loved to hear the stories my Scottish granny, Alice Gordon, would share of her parents swapping the civilized life of gentry in Glasgow for the pioneering life of the wilds of northern Alberta.
My great grandfather, William Alexander Gordon, had served as a member of the Black Watch for many years, and when he retired was eligible to take advantage of the Canadian Soldier Settlement Act which provided returned WWI veterans who wished to farm with loans to purchase land, stock and equipment. And so, in the early 1920s, this man of middle age with his wife, Jane, and seven of their 13 children (six had died in childhood) abandoned everything they knew of their life in Glasgow and traveled by boat and train into a great new adventure.
Little did they know what that entailed. Their 200-acre parcel was situated about 100 miles north of Edmonton, Alberta, near a sparsely populated hamlet named Pibroch. The mists and rains of a Scottish city winter hadn't prepared them for the long, bitterly cold months of the open prairies. Nor were they accustomed to the bombardment of large, angry mosquitoes in the depths of a hot summer. It was a rude awakening. Of the seven children, five were girls between the ages of three and 18. Of the boys, one was an early teenager, the other was five years old. So, this retired soldier was left to clear the land of tree stumps and boulders by himself with nothing but an axe, a rope and a horse. Meanwhile, Jane focused on turning an abandoned pioneer log cabin into a comfortable home for their large, confused family. The whole experience was such a shock that had they the means they'd have returned to the old country after the first year.
Still, they prevailed and granny was proud to tell of their sacrifices, hardships, and the ultimate satisfaction of taming a hostile environment that provided a foundation for future generations to grow and prosper. She was also proud to call herself a Canadian.
In defense of freedom and to serve their new country both boys, Frank and the youngest Archie, joined the war effort of WWII. The latter, at 21, paid the ultimate price. Frank lived with survivor's guilt the rest of his life.
I am reminded that nothing of value comes without a price.
Here, in my late granny's own words from a memoir I discovered and typed up a couple of years ago, is a short account of Flight Engineer, Archibald Don Gordon RCAF, Squadron 405 Bomber Command, and the family's experience of his loss. Though her thoughts are personal it feels appropriate to share, especially in these times when we appear to need to be reminded of the value of a life. May her words be a poignant reminder to us all.
Lest we forget …
Archibald Don Gordon was born December 15, 1919, in Dundee, Scotland ~ the 12th of 13 children (seven made it to adulthood) and the first after dad's (William Alexander Gordon) return from the war. He was named for a superior officer who was killed. The officer's name was Archibald Don. Dad wrote to the family in England and asked permission to do so. Archie came from a proud family of soldiers. Indeed, our father was a member of the Black Watch and served out his time in WWI as a Sergeant Major.
He was a chubby, sturdy little boy with hazel eyes and red hair who grew into a good looking young man with a ready grin. He had a sunny disposition and was popular with everyone who knew him. Archie was always ready for a prank. Always willing to go along with his friends in all of their various and, sometimes, daring activities. When he was angry it never lasted for long. However, he had lots of grit and his temper, when roused, was something to see. As he grew up he was very well liked by the girls. He was wonderful dancer and very sociable.
When he joined the RCAF he had been training as an electric and acetylene welder in Edmonton. Frank, his older brother, and he enlisted as volunteers at the same time. Before doing so they set aside a few weeks at home and travelled with dad and sort of did the town. Then they went their separate ways into the services. One Army; one Air Force. Frank tried later to get a transfer to the Air Force, but was unsuccessful.
The war got very grim as history books will tell. Archie started out as ground crew, but studied to become air crew. He was very happy when he made it. He flew in a Halifax Bomber as a Flight Engineer. Those bombers were big and awkward and had very little maneuverability. They were really sitting ducks for enemy planes.
Of course, it happened. He and his crew were shot down over the Bay of Biscay while on a mine laying expedition. Six fellows in the crew. Some bodies were washed up on islands in the Bay. He was reported as missing in action for six months, then he was officially presumed dead. The bodies that washed up, including Archie's, were buried by the French civilians in a cemetery in La Rochelle. Later, after the war was over, they were gathered up from their various burying places and laid to rest in a big military cemetery. Archie's body, along with those of his crew companions, was reburied at Pornic cemetery in France.
The correspondence regarding these events were thrusts of sorrow and pain to my mother and father, and to the rest of us. So many tears. Archie had met a girl in Brandon, Manitoba, who was in training as a nurse and became engaged to her. Her name was Dot Hurle.
Who can write sorrow? Those who feel sorrow can hardly tell it. It is a leaden weight ever present in the heart. The night Archie was killed, April 6th, 1943, I dreamt I was a way high up in the sky. It was very dark. Then I felt a great crushing on my chest, and I woke up. I felt very strange, but went back to sleep. I then dreamed I was in a great field of very beautiful white lilies. I was desperately searching for a coloured lily, but I searched and searched and didn't find one. Word came the next day that Archie was missing in action.
Can you imagine my mother's sorrow; my dad's sorrow?
My mother was alone when the telegram arrived. She ran to a neighbour who got to my dad at his work. Such a dark day. My mother couldn't eat or drink fearing that Archie was a war prisoner, or that he had no food or water. I cannot tell all details here of the agony of it. My mother had been listening to the news on the radio the night before. The results of raids and which planes had not come back to England were broadcasted. She heard that the Bomber "P for Peter" had not returned, and said she sort of knew that Archie had been on it. He was 23. My mother didn't sleep for nights on end. The darkness that descended on us when the dreaded telegram came never did leave. Words cannot express the very depth of our sorrow. Hearts were broken never to heal. Our big, tough dad wept until the tears rolled down his cheeks when his face, he thought, was hidden behind his newspaper. But I saw those tears. We all did, and turned away and wept. I don't believe (and some others feel the same) that Frank ever got over the loss and the grief.
Trips were made to the Red Cross headquarters in Edmonton every day to find out if anything had been heard. My family were not the only ones who made these sad trips. There were many families hoping against hope.
Anyway, after six months they were all presumed dead. Archie's clothes came home in a box. Not many. No uniforms. All the shirts and socks needed washing. He'd had some of his pay sent home each month and deposited in my mother's name in a bank. She didn't spend a cent of it for many years, until my dad urged her to.
I never forget them, the hosts of the great volunteers. They unselfishly and bravely and willingly offered their all. Their all was taken, but the spirit is beyond harm and death, so triumphantly they live. I know they live. I know Archie lives.
These boys were great. They gave their lives for a great cause. Read about Hitler and concentration camps and the Holocaust of that time and realize that these boys knew why they were fighting and they didn't die in vain. Read of their joking and laughing as they boarded their bombers for the raids knowing that the big thing was to do the job, and knowing they were facing almost certain death. Archie and his great host of fighting heroes are forever alive and forever with Almighty God in a safe place. Because God loves the ones who give their lives for a good cause. And did not God's own Son set them an example? Believe me I know that they are all ok and safely home, and we shall all meet again as sure as the sun rises each day. I look forward to seeing Archie. I long to see him. And I will see him. I'll also see all my loved ones who have gone on before me. Each of us are spiritual and alive and better off than ever, and I know that Christ was with the men fighting for right and that He gave them all a welcome home to their new and spiritual life. He was on the shore at La Rochelle and He guided them in to a safe harbour.
Time goes on and time does heal.
Dear reader never forget these boys and men who paid the full price for the freedom of Europe and for us, too, as had Hitler not been stopped he would have been in England (he already had France and Holland and Belgium and many other countries). These boys had a saying. If crews didn't return after a raid they said that the crew had "bought it," or so and so had "bought it," and so on. So Archie and his crew "bought it," too. The "it" being our freedom. They considered they were buying our freedom, and that they certainly did. And Jesus also "bought it." You see? They paid the price. Out of my family of seven raised, one paid for the freedom for the rest of us. And for many others.
To conclude, Granny penned this beautiful poem tribute to the lads who lost their lives in defence of freedom. It appeared in the Edmonton Journal some time in the 1950s during a Remembrance Day feature. Sadly, I don't know the specifics, still her words live on.
A Lad and a Lark
Alice Gordon McDonall
Upon the death of Flight Sergeant Archibald Don Gordon, RCAF,
405 Squadron, killed in action April 6, 1943, over the Bay of Biscay.
Buried in Plot 1, Row AB, Grave 5 Pornic War Cemetery, France
From far off shores they wrote and said,
"Your boy lies here among the dead
With softest care and gentle hands
We laid him with Canadians."
See how the grain is bending low.
See how the rivers cease their flow.
The wild flowers drop their saucy heads
The winds hide in their mountain beds.
Silent and sighing the whole land
Grieving my lost Canadian
Bowed in sorrow and despair
Broken my heart beyond compare.
The land, the sky so very dark,
But, what is this? A meadowlark?
Hear it! Hear it! Through the haze?
"I love dear Canada," it says.
"He is not dead!" he bravely tells,
"He's here! He's walking in the dells.
He wanders by the river wide
He's here! He's here! He has not died."
His little voice, so sweetly true
I must believe! Oh, wouldn't you?
The meadowlark my laddie loved
And deathless Life to me was proved.
Oh, leap you rivers, run you fast.
You flowers lift up your heads at last.
Blow, blow you winds and toss the grain
I know my lad is back again.
I raise my head and bow no more
Lift up my heart and am quite sure
He is not dead. He walks the land.
For is he not Canadian?
Oh, meadowlark you little bird
Who in my darkest night was heard.
Love you my Canadian lad?
"I love all Canada," he said.
My grandmother's generation is gone now, and with them the terrible burden of memories they carried of a most brutal time in our world's history. I pray, for all our sakes, that the price paid by those who gave their lives in pursuit of freedom, and the sacrifices and sorrows of those who loved and lost them and had their lives forever changed because of it, shall not be in vain.

NR • 1 hour 43 min • 2008
by J.R. Jones May 21, 2009 August 24, 2021
After the lovely Helene (Edith Scob) dies in her mid-70s, her three grown children (Juliette Binoche, Charles Berling, Jeremie Renier) inherit her country home and its valuables, which earlier belonged to her adored uncle, an artist of international note. This extraordinary 2008 French drama by writer-director Olivier Assayas (Irma Vep, Demonlover) never turns into the expected family squabble over money or property; instead Assayas follows the three siblings through the complicated business of appraising, auctioning, donating, and giving away the antique furniture and world-class artworks. Each of them wrestles in his or her own way with their mother's memory and their responsibility to the artist's legacy, and as the grandchildren begin to emerge as characters too, one realizes the real dramatic conflict is between the past, which must be honored, and the present, which must be lived. In French with subtitles.

Oregon Labor Commissioner Brad Avakian is pictured here in this September 2012 photo.
Voters would be understandably confused if they thought Brad Avakian was running not for secretary of state, but rather for governor, attorney general or perhaps a new post of progressive superhero.
After all, in his bid for the state's second-highest office, Avakian is pledging to protect Oregonians from fraud, add civics classes to the curriculum for Oregon's schools, ensure equal pay for women, champion promising candidates, rally for worthy causes and, while he's at it, combat climate change. Considering his wide-ranging plan, we would not be surprised if Avakian were to trumpet a three-point plan for winning the war on terror as well.
It's worth revisiting what the secretary of state does. The person holding the position, which is established in the state Constitution and further defined in Oregon statutes, serves as the state's chief elections officer, state archivist and auditor of public spending. The secretary of state's seven divisions are tasked with impartially and fairly interpreting and applying election law, auditing agencies to improve government efficiency, providing regulatory information to businesses and overseeing other duties in the public interest. The secretary also redraws legislative districts if the state Legislature cannot reach agreement.
While the staid functions may not grab headlines, the office performs vital duties that, if done properly, help preserve confidence in state government as a whole.
Unfortunately, the activist job description that Avakian, currently labor commissioner, is selling to voters is fundamentally mismatched with the position that he seeks. That mismatch is further highlighted by the endorsements of organizations that are pushing his candidacy, even though the secretary of state's core functions don't have anything to do with their own missions. Avakian's determination to secure and broadcast support from such groups suggests a campaign strategy based less on how faithfully he'd do the job than on how effectively he'd use it to deliver to the faithful.
Consider the way Avakian intends to execute the role of chief elections officer. Avakian told The Oregonian/OregonLive editorial board that he would endorse candidates and ballot measures, refraining only during the period that ballots are in the hands of voters. He said his opinion won't influence how he makes elections decisions, such as determining whether a candidate violated an election law or whether to impose a penalty for a campaign finance infraction.
Avakian believes that sharing his opinion is more honest than keeping it to himself, adding that Oregonians deserve to know what their elected officials believe. He is ignoring however, that the appearance of bias can be just as insidious to public trust as the actuality of bias in influencing elections decisions. Isn't there enough voter cynicism without giving people legitimate reasons to feel the system is rigged?
In fact, when Gov. Kate Brown was secretary of state she did not personally endorse candidates or measures, telling The Oregonian/OregonLive editorial board that she "felt it was critically important to maintain the integrity of elections." She wanted to remain "above reproach," noting that she knew firsthand the importance of having faith in the secretary of state because she won her first primary for the House by only seven votes.
Another of Avakian's ideas: to use the secretary of state's audit division, which conducts financial and performance evaluations of state programs, to dive into the workings of private companies that receive public contracts. Such audits, he said, could reveal whether private companies are violating wage-and-hour laws or are compensating women inequitably.
But the responsibility for investigating wage-and-hour violations and other possible misconduct by companies already belongs to the Bureau of Labor and Industries, the agency that Avakian currently heads as the labor commissioner. There's little need for the secretary of state's office to step in, especially when doing so could take resources away from auditing how state agencies are using public funds, a more critical part of the office's mission. And it's not even clear if the secretary of state's office has the authority that Avakian envisions. He said that if laws need to be changed to allow that, "then we ought to change the law."
The problem is that Avakian has already shown he is willing to misuse his power in order to further causes that he believes in. As labor commissioner, he oversaw a discrimination case against a Christian bakery that refused to bake a wedding cake for a lesbian couple. While he rightfully found that the bakery's owners, Aaron and Melissa Klein, had violated state law prohibiting such discrimination, he didn't stop there. Instead, he declared that the bakery owners had also violated a separate law that prohibits businesses from advertising an intent to discriminate. Among the offending statements was an interview Aaron Klein gave to a reporter in which he recounted the conversation he had with the would-be customer. The mere retelling of what happened was deemed a violation of the state law, a reversal of the common-sense conclusion that Avakian's administrative law judge had made.
Avakian's oversized ambitions for the office are worrisome on their own. But he has the full support of several organizations that appear to embrace his concept of an activist-elected official in a position unsuited for such partisan advocacy.
Take the support of NARAL Pro-Choice Oregon PAC. Michele Stranger Hunter, the organization's executive director, acknowledged that the secretary of state's duties won't translate into action directly relevant to the nonprofit's abortion-rights mission. But the organization still felt it was important to declare that Avakian is "the best candidate to fight for Oregon women as our next secretary of state." As a statewide official, Avakian can champion pro-choice messages, she said, and will promote voting access for women.
But the underlying message is that if you support abortion rights, or gay rights or environmental stewardship, then you must support this candidate, regardless of whether the candidate will have any role in shaping abortion rights, gay rights or environmental stewardship policies and regardless of whether the candidate is well qualified to carry out the secretary of state's core responsibilities. It also ignores that Avakian's two challengers in the Democratic primary -- state legislators Richard Devlin and Val Hoyle -- have their own strong progressive records on those same issues. While Devlin has our endorsement, both legislators make a compelling and more responsible case for the office.
When choosing a secretary of state, Oregonians should favor the candidate who is best suited to do the job he or she seeks -- not the one who promises to push it in new and ideologically freighted directions for political gain.

Natural science can be divided into two main branches: life science and physical science. Life science is alternatively known as biology, and physical science is subdivided into branches: physics, chemistry, astronomy and Earth science.
"Although, we do know that it was philosopher William Whewell who first coined the term 'scientist. ' Prior to that, scientists were called 'natural philosophers'." Whewell coined the term in 1833, said my friend Debbie Lee.
Oceanography is an interdisciplinary science where math, physics, chemistry, biology and geology intersect. Traditionally, we discuss oceanography in terms of four separate but related branches: physical oceanography, chemical oceanography, biological oceanography and geological oceanography.
Satellite-based instruments useful to oceanographers studying ocean circulation include altimeters, which register variations in sea level slope that indicate current flow, and infrared sensors that show currents, eddies, and other circulation features.
Marine biology or biological oceanography.
Chemical oceanography.
Marine geology or geological oceanography.
Physical oceanography.
An oceanographer can find work all over the planet, either with large governments or academic institutions or for a corporation. Even if oceanographers are based in one country, they may travel to new locales for various job duties.
Key skills for oceanographers
Determination.
Creativity.
Flexibility.
Decisiveness.
A logical and independent mind.
Meticulous attention to detail.
Excellent IT skills.
Oceanographer Responsibilities:
Collecting and analyzing data from the ocean, ocean floor, and atmosphere.
Examining life forms and matter in seawater.
Investigating hypotheses using statistical models.
Attending conferences.
Going on research expeditions.
Submitting research proposals to obtain grants.
What do I need to do to become an oceanographer? Oceanography is mostly a research-based career. Most new oceanographers have a degree in oceanography, or a related subject, followed by a postgraduate master's degree in oceanography. Some employers will also expect you to have, or be working towards, a relevant PhD.
A nuclear submarine can dive to a depth of about 300m. This one is larger than the research vessel Atlantis and has a crew of 134. The average depth of the Caribbean Sea is 2,200 meters, or about 1.3 miles. The average depth of the world's oceans is 3,790 meters, or 12,400 feet, or 2 1⁄3 miles.
Typically, the Navy disposes of "blackwater" from latrines by pumping it into city sewer systems after docking. In the open ocean, warships pump the raw sewage into the ocean, a common practice by private vessels.
Female officers have been going to sea in submarines since 2011 and a plan to incorporate enlisted women was announced three years later. Enlisted women now serve in the Blue and Gold crews on board four guided-missile submarines: Ohio, Michigan, Florida and Georgia.

Was the Bush adminstration aware of the forthcoming events of Sept. 11.
It will feature happy smiley people and there will be positive vibes in the air.
London, May, 31, Wafa - Jack Straw, the UK foreign secretary, is demanding an explanation from Israel about the use of British equipment in Israeli tanks and attack helicopters, the two main weapons used against Palestinians in the Occupied Territories, the Guardian reported.
The longstanding notion many Arabs were contemplating that if the USA wanted something done, at any time in any part of the world, it would simply get it done, has apparently resisted the September 11's events. This vision while being to some degree emphasized by the "victory" of the USA in the cold war and extensively in the contest with the ex-USSR since the collapse of the latter, as well as by the henceforth prevailing role of the US in the search for peace in the Middle East during the last decade, has also its roots anchored in the Arab mind.

Limbaugh's semi-pro (ductive) crossover is wicked………….
Pasty Rush Limbaugh's Ditto Heads are the "white working class" that has been "crossing over " and voting for Hillary in large numbers. I'm convinced after noticing right after the completion of several primaries, theres always a statement in the press that talks about how heavy the voter turn out was in normally Republican Red districts.
When you look at vote totals for McCain and other Republican candidates, their overall vote totals/volume is less than twice/three times what the totals are for Obama and Clinton.
The thing about it, the press has always known about it. A prolonged primary season means more money. Does anyone really believe that McCain can win the nomination?
The King Puppet Master is hard at work fooling you all into believing that Barack can't garner the "white working class" vote.
After finding out that Lake County Indiana went to Obama (got the majority of the white and black votes from this "blue collar county), it's clear that it was the red district Republicans that did wicked "Limbaugh Crossovers" and voted in blocks throughout state of Indiana and other state primaries that gave Hillary the "bump" she needed to win in those states.
The media is more then willing to facilitate this agenda. It prolongs this media money making race for the Democrat Nomination.
Notice how very little press McCain actually gets throughout each week. They can't make any money off the guy!
A tried and true formula for selling ad space is race baiting political topics.
Contrary to popular belief, Limbaugh's ploy is to drag out the Democratic primary race for as long as possible in the hopes that the two contenders will dig up the dirt on each other that McCain seems unwilling to unearth.
McCain is in a tough position, since he will be seen as attacking a woman or a minority if he takes part in the mudslinging. I think, however, that when the Democrats finish their dance and the Obama camp and associated 527's begin with their attacks on him, McCain will finally buckle and start throwing some serious mud of his own.
I think the race will be a lot closer than you think and could very well result in an upset win for McCain. We'll know more in October.
I love a good Presidential race!

Colorado Teapot Party: Willie Nelson's legalized-pot movement finds a home here
Joel Warner

Move over, Sarah Palin, there's a new grassroots movement afoot: the Teapot Party, a legalization movement founded after everybody's favorite midnight rider, Willie Nelson, was busted in Texas in November for pot possession. In an interview after the arrest, the songwriter noted, "There's the Tea Party. How about the Teapot Party? Our motto: 'We lean a little to the left.'"
Whether or not Willie was serious about launching a new political machine, his devoted fans wasted no time in making his vision come to fruition. The Teapot Party, which is all about supporting candidates who are for legalization and opposing those who are for pot arrests, has tens of thousands of fans on Facebook, and chapters have popped up across the nation.
Not surprisingly, Colorado is quickly becoming a Teapot Party hotbed -- but then, Willie lived here part-time back in the '70s. A Colorado Teapot Party Facebook page, started two months ago, already boasts more than 400 supporters. And there will be a Colorado Teapot Party meetup at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, January 18, at the Gypsy House Cafe, 1279 Marion Street in Denver.
"We are sick of seeing Willie busted," says Michelle LaMay, owner of Cannabis University, the meet-up organizer. "Maybe we will bring some people out of the closet."

People who may already support the movement, which already has many active members. "I am not out to undermine any of the great activist organizations in the state, only to lend support to them," LaMay notes. In fact, there is no set agenda yet for the Teapot Party meeting: no political strategy, no massive organizing plan.
Instead, consider this more of a chill-out session. "We re going to meet up, see what happens, see what people say," says LaMay.
Willie wouldn't want it any other way.

"Ces préoccupations des théoriciens à mieux comprendre les fonctionnements du discours se concrétisèrent dans un véritable courant esthétique baptisé « Ars Nova ». "
Here is how I translated it : "The theoreticians' wishes to better understand the musical speech were achieved thanks to (materialized in??) a real musical movement named "Ars Nova"."
These concerns of the theoreticians for a better understanding of (the) musical speech were given concrete expression in a real aesthetic movement christened "Ars Nova."
se concrétiser = are expressed in a ?
Thanks a lot egremoq, and don't worry SunnyS, your little suggestion is enough to help me !
Yes I hesitated too. At first I put "musical discourse", but I found more Google entries for "musical speech"... I don't know which one to choose, I found both in the same context.
I might simply use "led to" here.
Although I like both "gave concrete expression to" and "served as a foundation to."
maybe a "full-fledged" movement / a movement in its own right.
Sorry, no, I am not familiar with the subject. I think it would be good for you to ask separately. Usually speech and discourse are very different things in English.
