Facebook OPSEC Violation Causes Delayed Redeployment
RAMSTEIN AB, Germany — A massive troop rotation back to Ramstein Air Base has been delayed because of a social media OPSEC violation, according to sources in US European Command.
According to several commanders, enlisted supervisors, and family members at bases throughout EUCOM, their troops will not be returning to home-station as expected because someone's spouse posted sensitive information on Facebook.
"OMG i cant believe it! my bae is leaving al udeid airbase tomorrow @ 0800! i'll be waiting for you when you fly into ramstien [sic], my love," said the post by Patricia, whose last name is being withheld to protect the safety of the blonde, 21-year-old senior airman who works at Ramstein's 86th Dental Squadron.
When a commenter asked when her husband would be back, she said, "[I] can't tell you that. It's classified."
Though the post was later taken down, Air Force Office of Special Investigations is already using screenshots in briefings covering what not to do on Facebook when troop movements are imminent.
"What the fucking fuck?" said Brig. Gen. Jon Thomas, 86th Airlift Wing commander, as he face-palmed profusely during an all-call. "It's one thing to tell your spouse that you're in the 'AFCENT AOR' or assigned to 'XYZ Unit', but telling them your exact location and when you'll be taking off? I command morons."
Despite the increased opportunities for OPSEC breaches due to the emergence of social media, the impact of occurrences such as this has been kept to a minimum over the years. However, in this case, the consequences for misbehavior on Facebook have caused inconvenience for many home units and families back home and resentment among those who have to stay downrange longer.
In recent days, the soldiers and airmen in question have trickled in to their home-stations using available space on cargo planes. Patricia's husband has been reported missing.

she's gotta be a really stupid dumbass for shooting her mouth off
The contract airlift knew.
True, but they didn't blab on social media.
They simply made an announcement on the front page of Kaleej Times and The Gulf.
Then, there was that pesky flight plan and radar track of the flight.
Of course, in the real world, they don't hold up redeployments, as it'd foul up multiple major commands deployment and logistics schedules, not to mention make the contractor happy to bill for overtime to not do anything.
As usual.
Thankfully I got out before social media existed….there are women in the military that the enemy would love to capture then kill because they will tell everything but won't shut up….

Raising Teen Girls, the saga!
It is safe to say that raising these teen girls of mine by far is my life's biggest challenge. Daily I have anxiety, worry, stress and heart palpitations in regards to my teen girls! :)
They have given me permission to blog about it .. I have been careful to not say too much as this is very much my own journey that I am documenting and at no time have I ever felt the freedom to embarrass them or publicly "talk" about them.. then I mentioned about blogging about the journey of being a mom to teen girls and they said it was fine .. so I will do my best to document without exposing :)
I think right now my biggest challenge is not just with the drama that my own hooligans cause but their friends!! and I find myself asking the question.... WHERE ARE THEIR PARENTS?! .... quickly followed by ... WHY DO I NEED TO KNOW THESE THINGS... and again ... WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH THIS INFORMATION ... yup it's awesome.
Girls = drama
13-16 girls = drama to the millionth degree
add to that equation, boys, and you are off the charts in the drama department
The hard part is that to them all this is so real, so very much the "end of the world" and while I listen and internally shudder at what I find out, I try to reinforce to them that one day they will look back and roll their eyes at how silly all this really is. To them right now I am an archaic dinosaur that could not possibly comprehend what they are going through. Thing is... I am not that old :) It wasn't THAT long ago that I stood in front of the mirror liking what I saw and hating it at the same time. I remember the internal struggles, the rage of emotions that are only too real in a teenage girl's body and mind. One moment so and so is your best friend and the next your mortal enemy! One day your hair is perfect and the next no matter how hard you try you cannot contain the bump in your ponytail and instead of being a small not noticeable bump you feel EVERYONE can see the massive imperfection in your hair. I remember trying on every outfit and literally yelling at myself WHY ARE YOU SO UGLY AND FAT .. yup I was a crazy teenage girl and I remember the battle, the pressure and the mood swings :)
My girls tell me that their friends do not confide in their parents as mine do with me. I wonder why? I wonder why this is, why I hardly see any of their parents and the friends are at my house ALL the time .. like seriously I feed them all the time! I have the bare pantry to prove it! It's one of those situations that I am glad they are at my house cuz I can keep an eye on them .. you know like checking the backpacks at the door!! but there are times when we have plans to go out and we have to quickly change them as more and more kids show up at my front door.
as my girls are 11, 13 & 15 ... my almost 20 year old doesn't live at home any more ... this post will be about a 9 year long to be continued!!

This would ensure that we can safely set > aside any type of bucket, for any particular lifetime (whether that is for a > connection or a request or whatever). Yes, that would work as well. I am beginning to think that this is overkill for our use cases, and it wouldn't really solve this problem, since the sub_request_output_filter still wouldn't be calling setaside. Also, when a regular filter calls setaside, which pool does it use? I would guess c->pool, but that could get confusing. My only other concern is actually walking all the way back up to ensure that the current pool is a decsendant of the pool passed to setaside. Those tests should be quick, but we will be calling setaside a lot through the course of some requests. I am positive that we only want to do this "copy anything under 9k to non-volatile location" in two places, whereas setaside is potentially called from every filter. If the setaside function is ever called incorrectly, we will end up doing the copies far more often than we need/want to. Those are just my concerns though, not a reason not to do the work. I just figure that by getting this stuff out in the open early, we can avoid some annoying head-aches.

text: My mom just bought me a second microSD card for my ak2i, and I've proceeded to do the whole formatting and copying akaio from the first card. All 4 games I've put in it so far are working well (I tried GTA first, to see if any slowdown manifests, but so far it's all fine). Now a problem has come up. Whenever I use the soft-reset, rather then going back to the akaio UI, it just goes to 2 black screens and forces me to do a DSi reset (tapping the power button). Other than that, everything else is working flawlessly. Any ideas? Thanks in advanced.

Back in middle and high school, when I made more frequent trips to local record stores, I was a kid hell bent on amassing an impressive collection of music. I'll openly admit that I wasn't much of a "crate digger"; for one, I was buying CDs, not vinyl, which that term more blatantly refers to when buying new music. On top of that, I wasn't looking to buy rarities or obscurities, as is also typically the case when using the term. Instead, I'd be in the store looking for specific artists that I'd already decided I want to support. I remember the hours spent scrolling through Wikipedia pages, magazine articles, and blog posts looking for tidbits of new album information from my favorite artists. There were two columns in a Word document that was always present on my computer: one for projects that were in the works but had no official release date, and one for those that did. When the release dates finally arrived, I'd make my way to the store and make my purchase.
I typically had a budget of what I could spend on new music. Whether it be a leftover birthday gift card or some extra spending money gained from doing a neighbor's yard work, I always tried to stretch my dollars as much as I could. As I stood in the aisle with a handful of "wish list" purchases, I'd whip out my phone, add all of the prices together, and see what combination would get me the most albums. Sometimes I could only get one or two, but there's many times I can recall walking out the door with a stack of five or six, a huge smile stretching across my face as I excitedly decided which I'd listen to first.
Because I was so intent on getting the most for my money, there was a dilemma I frequently ran into. Upon finding the bin containing my soon-to-be purchase, I'd more often than not realize I had a choice to make: get the cheaper, standard version of the album, or the more expensive, deluxe version. While the deluxe version contained more songs, I was always hesitant to shell out the extra money. Of course, it was usually only a three or four dollar difference, but when that decision is placed on a 16-year-old kid who sweated in the sun for half a day to earn that money, it seems like a much larger difference. I'd usually decide to just go with the standard version. In saving those few bucks, I could usually add on another item, but if not I could just save it for next time. There were times, however, when I'd be willing to let go of the extra dollars. When it was one of my absolute favorite artists, I'd allow myself to splurge a bit in order to get those extra tidbits at the end.
In my mind, back then and still to this day, the deluxe version isn't a more complete or definitive version; it simply contains a couple extra tracks. When listening to a deluxe version, I always remind myself to let the album end with the standard final track and consider the extras more as an unrelated dessert. Now that we've almost entirely entered a new era of music listening with streaming, fans are no longer stratified by whether or not they're willing to cough up those extra dollar bills. Everyone, no matter if you're a diehard or casual fan, pays the same flat monthly rate to enjoy the music (There are, however, people out there who still buy hard copies of albums, God bless em).
Because of this, the deluxe album will all but fall into extinction. When all you have to do is pull out your phone and press play, the idea of a deluxe album is insignificant. Twice this week I've been listening to albums on Apple Music that I own hard copies of. When what I thought was the final song ended, I was prepared to find something else to listen to, only to discover that there were three tracks remaining, tracks I had never even heard. I had selected the deluxe edition of the album and didn't even know it. There is no more distinction between the two versions, unless they have different album art, which is sometimes the case. Yet, I couldn't help but think about all those years ago when I had to decide what artists I liked enough to spend more money on. It all seems so trivial now, and it is, thanks to streaming. Soon enough, there most likely won't be deluxe versions of albums, just the albums themselves, all fully loaded into our handheld devices. The idea that bonus tracks are unrelated dessert won't be the case, as the songs will just be part of the album. This contributes to the fact that playlists are now becoming more popular than albums, as the songs that once would be considered mere second-thought add-on treats are now fully-fledged, album-worthy tracks.
I don't visit record stores nearly as much as I used to, or as much as I want to. Though part of me still wants to have a massive collection of music, another part of me sometimes feels like it's almost worthless in the face of new technology. So many years ago, back when I was so eager to fill a bookshelf with albums, I'd be happy to know that everyone has a fair opportunity to get the deluxe experience from their favorite artists, all for the same rate. Now, I'm just hoping that the death of deluxe won't lead to an influx of filler tracks and album dilution. No longer do I have to count my money to figure out how many albums I can treat myself to. We have instant access to any piece of music, all a click away, for a price that barely seems noticeable in a monthly budget. Oh, how bittersweet it is! Rest in peace, Deluxe.

Well, working with the ancient code for The Village web club has led to this shrink going back to basics. I kind of need to do more than just copy and paste code I do not understand, so learning HTML from scratch. Still, my little hideaway under the village is coming along. I even managed to learn how to do
strikethrough in ancient code (not trivial as we are working with HTML 3 as I understand it) HT to Christina for pointing me to the Code Academy. It was easy to get started and get going. I want to understand something about the overall structure of a web page, else I am never going to be able to make my village hideaway cosy and comfy.
"I just love his idea of introducing this space as one folks who are creating on the web and pushing to teach themselves new things within a focused community might explore together. It's fun, it's personable, it's focused, and it's educational!"
Yes, Jim. You are on the money and John is finally getting me to do more than just copy and paste code I kind of understand but not really! Cheers, John!
We could create a text based adventure game underground?
I wish I could get past the first hurdle and get Handbrake to work. I would love to be able to try the combine x number of images, I think there is something lovely and uniquely digital about this kind of art. Kind of what Brett Victor says about using the tool not just to make art we make physically but also looking to use it in native ways – I think your art does that.

Finally! We have more time in the sun!
Yes, ok we lost an hour of sleep, but I do not know one person that does not look forward to walking out of their office at 5pm still feeling the sun on their skin! Even the times I walk out of the building hissing, covering my eyes like a vampire after not leaving my office in 8 hours, I still manage to eventually feel human again and the excitement hits as I list in my head the endless ways to spend this precious extra time in the light! I can take a walk, go to beach, run, finally work on my photography skills, sit at the park and read my new book, or ride my bike. In the back of my mind I am always reminding myself that I still have a limit to daylight, so I must pick an activity that allows me to be safely in my car, in a crowded area, or home by the time it gets dark.
This thought takes me back to a conversation that began in the WRC office last week. We were all giddy with joy about the time change, each one of us listing the glorious ways we were going to spend our extra time. We slowly began to realize our conversation was not actually about longer days. The joy was for us as women feeling more independent because the daylight allows us to do what we always want to do after work instead of feeling so unsafe we choose to just go home, go to gym, or rely on friends and family for safety in numbers. A large part of that is because we live in a culture that does not take street harassment or sexual assault seriously. Not only are we truly frightened of being attacked on a regular basis, but we are also acutely aware that society still holds us responsible in many ways if and when we are assaulted.
Safety on our Streets
We often talk about safety here at WRC because of the field we work in, but the conversation around safety is incredibly important and quite frankly needs to happen more often with family, friends and on a community level. Women and men need to ask and listen to the women in their lives to really understand the constant fear we all feel when we are alone on the street particularly at night, the restriction we have with the amount of time to enjoy activities after work, how we need to strategically park our cars in well lit areas because it will be dark by the time we finish happy hour with our friends, or deciding to play inside with our kids and wait until our partner comes home to go for family walks. This fear is real. Street harassment is scary and the fear of being attacked always looms.
I can speak for myself and many other women when men are yelling at you, approaching you, following you, or attempting to grab you (yes that happens) we are not flattered, we are frustrated, angry and terrified. In those moments we are questioning how to react, do we yell back to embarrass them so they leave us alone? Ask politely in case they get angry for not wanting the attention? Say nothing and hope it stops? Or run because you think they are going to attack you? This is the reality, and we all agreed that it feels more manageable when it is still light outside because there is more people readily available if you need assistance. More manageable is not enough.
Each woman has to decide what feeling safe looks like for her especially when reacting to unwanted harassment, but we as a community have a responsibility to send a clear message that street harassment is not acceptable, say no to violence against women and stop victim blaming. We still have a long way to go, but I hope this will at least encourage you to begin the conversation. Through talking we discovered there is a direct link between daylight savings and quality of life for women, that it is more than extra hours in the sun. It is permission for us as women to do the things we love and feel that little bit safer in the process.

La Befana - the Italian Witch of Epiphany
|On the Twelfth day of Christmas..... came the Witch!
Today, in Pieve, the little village below us, the Befana came with two of her friends and two ponies loaded with gifts in wicker panniers. The three witches danced and handed out biscuits, oranges and sweets to the children.
|The Befana choir and musicians
It was all great fun, but marks the end of Christmas. They've had a competition in town to see who could decorate the best tree with rubbish. The winner was beautifully hung with bells and streamers made from blue and white plastic bottles, all painted intricately in blue, white and silver. Very pretty, and a good idea for next year!
Tonight at 3am this particular witch is on a Ryanair flight to London, then on about 5 trains to the north of England, for Norman Nicholson's 100th birthday party in Carlisle Library. The weather forecast is terrible over there - hope I make it in time!

Book Review: 'Up From Soil Fresh' by Aaron J. French
Instead of explosions and post-apocalyptic survival prep, Up From Soil Fresh returns zombie fiction to the realm of horror with this collection of eight stories. These are vignettes—episodes that would have made excellent additions to a classic horror comic book or an episode of Tales from the Crypt. Each story is distinctly unique, and the prose style is varied to complement and enhance the dread that each tale's concept provokes.
The stories of Up From Soil Fresh feel surreal, as if French described nightmares instead of characters. I would argue that none of the stories are inferior to the other; French has created a landscape for the horror-parable, each tale an examination of failings inherent in the human—and inhuman—condition. Horror fans turned off by the flood of zombie fiction can have their faith in the genre restored by reading this collection. Even though I'm familiar with French's work, I was surprised at how creative each story was. Each setting is different, each character unique. The imagery French includes is evocative and rich.
My personal favorite in this collection was Raw Deal, and it's a perfect contrast in style to the concluding piece, The Shadow of Light and Dark, which showcases French's range as a horror writer. Raw Deal was just plain creepy; I felt like French rewarded me (the reader) throughout the story; there's something to be said for a tale that uses proper foreshadowing and doesn't shove a twist ending down the reader's throat for shock value.
An uncomfortable funeral, a gunfighter who transcends time, a drug deal gone bad, and a realm twisted by the forces of light and dark are just some of the highlights contained herein. Up From Soil Fresh has horror that will visit you again behind closed eyes…

For the month of October I am taking on a challenge for 30 days with the simple intention on making my life extra awesome. This is something I do quite regularly, sometimes 10 days, sometimes 7 days, and 30days about twice a year. Usually every few months I set myself a goal, mission or challenge, but this is the first time ever I am publically sharing my crazy little plan.
So the idea is that I am going to use this period for the whole of next month to focus and get alot of stuff done whilst also improving my lifestyle.
So what's the challenge ?
Well actually a bunch of challenges that all sort of interconnect. I plan to break one bad habit and develop a new habit whilst also putting a crazy amount of focus into my online business.
Breaking a habit
I am addicted to coke (the black fizzy liquid). I used drinking Coca-cola as a way to cut down the amount of beer I was drinking a few years ago. It worked, but the problem is now that I drink far to much coke and could pretty much say I'm hooked on it. Of course it is not the most healthy drink in the world to be drinking all day, but I love it. I have a neat little trick up my sleeve on how I am going to tackle this one that may be quite entertaining. More coming soon on that.
Developing a new habit.
Any habit can be achieved (or broken) by doing it for 21 consecutive days. So my habit that I would like to grow is simply writing. Sounds pretty basic but, for me writing is really not time efficient. It is almost impossible to build online businesses without writing, and although I have content writers who I employ to write stuff for my affiliate businesses I would love to write more on this blog and eventually one day I may even write a book. I get really jealous reading some blogs where they say they can write several blog posts in an hour whilst I struggle to write a half-decent article for hours. It's not that I'm stupid, I can obviously write, but speed and quality is what I want to improve. I am going to tackle this by writing 3 short articles a day for 30 days. And I am also going to commit to posting an article every day on this blog for the whole of next month.
Business Booster.
I will kill one of my existing businesses that ain't performing. I will build a new business from scratch or fully develop an existing one. I will also be doing alot of work on this blog which not really a business in itself but more of a fun place that is sort of becoming my online home. I am also considering sharing my Business Booster Mission right here on this blog. BUT only if you are interested, so let me know if this is something you'd like to see.
And just to make it more challenging, I am also going on a 30day detox. Zero intoxicants, no caffeine, no alcohol, loads of raw fruit and vegetables, a little exercise and hour less sleep per night.
Care to join me ?
Challenged yourself recently ? Have you got something you'd like to challenge yourself with ? A habit you want to break ? A habit you want to develop ? A 30 day Business Booster Adventure ? A 30 day detox ? Whatever.
Comments, suggestions, and ideas would be much appreciated. I guess need a little support.

The Republic of Angola is on the west coast of south-central Africa, and has an estimated population of around 13 million people. Wealthy in natural resources, it is now one of the fastest growing economies in Africa, fuelled mainly by its oil production. Despite this apparent wealth however, the country faces enormous socio-economic problems produced by the 27-year long civil war and the preceding fight for independence from Portugal, achieved in 1975.
In terms of forced migration, it is conflict-induced displacement that has received the most attention during the four decades of near constant fighting. At the height of the civil war, which raged from 1975 to 2002 between the governing MPLA (Popular Movement for the Liberation of Angola) and UNITA (National Union for the Total Independence of Angola), it is estimated that over 4 million people were displaced. Since the relative return to peace in 2002 however, the government and international observers have indicated that the vast majority of the displaced in Angola have either returned, resettled or integrated; and from 2005 displacement and return was no longer being monitored (IDMC, 2008).
Attention has turned to the reconstruction of the country's infrastructure as people return. Issues related to forced migration include: the return process for the displaced, and their varying success in finding durable solutions; post-conflict issues, such as landmines in areas of resettlement, and the reintegration of combatants into society, including child soldiers; disaster-induced displacement, with communities in various parts of the country affected by serious flooding; and the challenges posed by the influx of irregular migrants into the country.

4 Tips to Naturally Improve Your Gallbladder & Digestion of Fats
If your gallbladder has been removed, these tips are going to help you transform your digestive health and your ability to digest fats.
If your gallbladder has not been removed, these tips will still apply since most people today have a gallbladder that does not function at 100%, or as well as it should.
Naturally Improve Your Gallbladder & Digestion of Fats
Why Is Fat Digestion Important?
Fat digestion is important for digesting fat-soluble vitamins. So if your body is not digesting fats well, this means you aren't digesting vitamins like D, E, A and K. These are important for brain health, and also your nerve and immune system.
It's vitally important that your body is able to absorb healthy fats, and absorb the vitamins in those fats. Check out the video for my top 4 ways to improve fat-digestion and gallbladder health.
Here are my TOP 4 TIPS for improving your gallbladder function and digestion of fats.
1. Remove any form of hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils. Especially Canola Oil, Soybean Oil or Corn Oil. These oils are very difficult to digest and cause inflammation.
2. Remove Mono-Unsaturated Fats (like Olive Oil) and replace them with Coconut Oil. Extra Virgin Olive Oil can have great health benefits, BUT if you've had your gallbladder removed or you're struggling to digest healthy fats, I recommend using Coconut Oil.
3. Supplement
- Lypase: Helps with fat digestion.
- Ox Bile: Helps you break down fats and support the growth of good bacteria.
- Probiotics: Supports digestion.
- Milk Thistle: Helps detox your liver.
4. Switch to a Raw Food Diet. Here are the main five foods I recommend: Vegetables, Fruits, Sprouted Nuts and Seeds, Organic Meat, Raw and Fermented Dairy.

Poor 59-year-old Sookie. She's the daughter of an elderly, demanding, wack-a-doodle, star quality mom who manages to get her three daughters married, leaving only her son to take the plunge. Sookie's life with her devoted and supportive Great Dane-loving, dentist husband is fine. Except for the problem of the blue jays hogging the sunflower seeds in her bird feeders and preventing the little birds from eating, her life is pretty great. In managing her mom's mail, a job she assumed when it became obvious mom couldn't manage it herself (and Sookie needed to keep tabs on what mom was doing), she encounters a registered letter that shakes her to her very core with information indicating she is a year older than she thought.
In "The All-Girl Filling Station's Last Reunion," Fannie Flagg unfolds a tremendous story that seems so real, you'll wish it were true. The wisdom and revelation makes this book one that, if politicians and all of us read and embraced the philosophy, our country would be in a better position. The historical relevance turns out to be the clever premise for the story.
GREAT, GREAT story!!
Three words that describe this book: patriotism, women, family
You might want to pick this book up if: Historical fiction with intriguing information about the WASP, who were the female pilots called to duty when the men left for WWII.

As winds from the second named storm of the 2012 hurricane season picked up speed, the sounds of recovery from the only hurricane to hit last year still echoed through a rural area across the water from North Carolina's Outer Banks.
Buzz saws, nail guns and other power tools competed for attention with birds and frogs as almost 1,700 volunteers from a group called Eight Days of Hope carried out their work in Pamlico County. They pulled out insulation and Sheetrock, put down new flooring and replaced electrical outlets submerged when Hurricane Irene roared through eastern North Carolina in August before tearing a path up the East Coast.
While Irene did more damage in the Northeast, states farther south are more likely to take a lashing from tropical weather during the new hurricane season that started June 1. The remnants of Tropical Storm Beryl late last month did little damage in North Carolina but served as a reminder of the urgency to rebuild houses before more storms arrive.
Irene caused $15 billion in damage and killed 49 people across an area that stretched from the Carolinas to Vermont. North Carolina took the hardest hit in the Southeast, with at least $1.2 billion in damage, not including uninsured crop losses.
"It's like how I expected," said Charles McKinney, a volunteer who came to Virginia. "When something like this happens, when it first happens, you have all the media attention, you have the FEMAs and the insurance people. And everybody descends upon the area. But three months _ this has been close to a year _ later, and these people still have no homes."
About 2,200 households in Pamlico County, which has a population of about 13,000 people, registered with the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and 104 households received a temporary housing unit from FEMA, a local volunteer leader says. More than 350 people completed the grant application for either buyout or elevation assistance.
The founder of Eight Days of Hope, Steve Tybor, said that while Katrina caused the most damage of any disaster he's seen, he finds the situation in Pamlico County more shocking because so much time has elapsed since the storm.
"People don't realize people are still living in homes that are like they were the day after Irene," he said.
Pamlico County is the ninth area visited by Tybor's faith-based group, which is based in his hometown of Tupelo, Miss. Tybor started it after Hurricane Katrina struck the Gulf Coast in 2005. Its volunteers descend upon a disaster-stricken area for eight days to repair houses. The 1,685 volunteers in North Carolina came from 43 states, Canada and Australia.
Several feet of Irene's floodwaters had filled Wade Miller's house, washed away his outside steps and submerged both of his vehicles. He has been applying bleach and water to the walls each day to stanch the growing mold. He showers and changes clothes there, but sleeps across the street at his brother's house.
Volunteers cut the walls out, replaced the sheetrock and put in new flooring in the one-story home with white siding where the 45-year-old computer assistant and former Army specialist has lived for 17 years. Some work remained at the end of last week, including installation of a heating and air-conditioning system, some painting and sealing of the drywall. He hopes to hire a contractor to finish most of the repairs.
But without the volunteers' help, he wouldn't have been able to afford to make his house inhabitable again.
"I think it's a great blessing from the Lord -- a great, great blessing from the Lord," he said outside his house last week as volunteers put down new flooring.
In Virginia, most of the damage from Hurricane Irene occurred inland in the Richmond area. The Virginia Department of Emergency Management estimates that 20 people lost their homes, primarily due to wind damage. Most of the storm damage was covered by private insurance. He said he didn't know how many people were still displaced.
"Compared to some of our other events, that's not too bad. If you were to tell me Virginia would get hit by a Category 1 hurricane and only 20 homes were destroyed I wouldn't believe you. So that ended up being much better than what we feared at the time," VDEM spokesman Bob Spieldenner said.
In North Carolina, Eight Days of Hope worked in 127 homes, completing 65. Smaller groups of the volunteers are planning to return to finish up the rest.
While Eight Days of Hope rolled into the county, the on-site leaders of the N.C. Baptist Men Disaster Relief and the N.C. Conference of the United Methodist Church Disaster Relief gave their volunteers the week off. Both groups have been working in the area since shortly after the storm.
"We'll be here until we get most of the people's houses repaired," said Gerald Wilson, the on-site coordinator for the Baptist Men. The group has repaired 70 homes since he arrived in October.
The Methodist organization has repaired about 60 houses, said Bruce Watson, the group's construction coordinator in Pamlico.
All three groups worked together, with Eight Days taking on houses where the Baptist Men had left materials but hadn't finished repairs.
The Pamlico County Disaster Relief Coalition helped steer Tybor's group to the area. The coalition of volunteers had planned to wrap up its work by the end of the year but may stay longer because the damage was so overwhelming, said chairwoman Dawn Gibson Baldwin.
Outsiders may think that coastal residents tend to be well-off and know what they're getting into when they buy property near the water, she said.
But the people of Merritt, Maribel and other small towns in Pamlico County are "families who have been here for decades," she said, breaking into tears. "They're fishermen and farmers, hard-working people who have been hit hard in these economic times. They're struggling. And so, they've done the best that they could do. You drive through the county, see these houses and they look OK. But you go inside, and they're gutted."
Eighty-three-year-old Geneva Gibbs hasn't been back to her house since she fled just ahead of Irene. Her son stayed at the house with a dog, and both ended up being rescued from the attic by a boater. The Baptist Men had made some repairs before Eight Days arrived.
"They're doing a wonderful job out there by putting it back together," she said. "I'm so thankful. I don't know how I'll ever thank those people for that."
Eight Days of Hope didn't finish Gibbs' home, but she feels much closer to being able to move back in.
"I don't know" how it will feel to sleep in her own bed again, Gibbs said. "But I know I'll be happy. I am telling you. To be in my own house one more time _ I don't know how the feeling will be. I just don't. I'm telling you the truth."

How insulation works
Heat naturally flows from hot to cold temperatures in three ways, conduction, convection and radiation. Only bulk insulation is effective in reducing heat transfer via these three ways, whereas reflective insulation is only effective at reducing heat transfer via radiation.
Conduction is the transmission of heat through a material, or from one material to another, through direct contact. It can take place in solids, liquids and gases. There are materials that are good conductors of heat and poor conductors of heat. If you placed a metal spoon in a hot drink the spoon would start to absorb the heat energy and get hot.
Therefore, when considering an insulant to slow down heat transfer via conduction, you should use a material that is a poor conductor of heat, like glasswool insulation.
Convection is heat transfer that occurs in gases and liquids. To reduce heat transfer by convection, an insulating material should contain small voids or air pockets within which air movement is minimised. Again glasswool is a good insulation to use in a building where you want to reduce heat transfer via convection due to it having lots of small air pockets to help minimise heat movement.
Radiation is the transmission of heat energy from a hot to cold surface, moving through air or a vacuum. When an object blocks the path of the heat energy, it will absorb it and turn it into heat. The fire example below illustrates how radiation works. When you sit in front of a fire you start to get warm as your body blocks the path of the energy and warms up.
Materials with a metallic finish are good for protection against radiant energy as they emit and absorb very little radiant energy and glasswool insulation is another good material providing a barrier to the radiant energy and then reducing heat transfer via convection and conduction.

Back-to-back winners for Velazquez
OLDSMAR, Fla. - Jockey John Velazquez was the star of the undercard on Saturday's rich Festival Day program at Tampa Bay Downs, winning the $200,000 aboard Bushfire and the $150,000 Hillsborough Stakes with Ready's Gal.
Bushfire raced a bit rankly during the early going, when she was second after a quarter-mile, but gained the lead on the backstretch and outlasted Saratoga Drive to post a three-quarter-length victory in the 1 1/16-mile Oaks for 3-year-old fillies. She set a brisk pace while proving a handful for Velazquez, settled into the stretch with a commanding advantage. She was then fully extended to withstand Saratoga Drive.
"She wasn't very relaxed during the early part of the race, she was too aggressive, but thankfully she didn't have to go head to head for the lead and she was very game through the lane," said Eddie Kenneally, who trains Bushfire for owners Ron and Ricki Rashinski. "She's run well in every start except the last one; that race was terrible, but she hated the slop and I knew she'd rebound today."
Bushfire finished seventh, beaten nearly 30 lengths, in Gulfstream Park's Grade 2 Davona Dale Stakes on Feb. 4.
Bushfire ($13.40) covered the distance in 1:46.25 over a fast track.
"She's nominated to the Kentucky Oaks and our options for her next start are either the Ashland at Keeneland or the Fantasy at Oaklawn Park," said Kenneally
Saratoga Drive was easily second best, finishing 3 3/4 lengths in front of 6-5 favorite Crystal Current, who was well placed but failed to muster a rally when set down for the drive.
Velazquez came right back in the next race to win the Grade 3 Hillsborough aboard Ready's Gal for trainer Todd Pletcher. The 4-year-old Ready's Gal chased the pace of Jacaranda Jane, gained command inside the eighth pole, and gradually edged clear. She finished 1 1/4 lengths in front of 2-1 favorite Amorama, who was trapped behind horses around the second turn before angling wide and finishing well through the stretch. Marchonin finished third.
Laurafina, the second choice at 5-2 in a field of 12 filly and mare turf specialists, broke through the gate prior to the start, lagged near the rear of the pack for six furlongs and was never a factor while rallying belatedly to finish fifth.
Ready's Gal ($14.60) ran 1 1/8 miles in 1:50.50 over a firm course.
"Obviously she had a terrific trip," said Pletcher, who trains Ready's Gal for owner James Scatuorchio. "She took to the turf course here well and delivered a big race."
Turf Dash: Western Kind prevails
Western Kind, who has shown marked improvement since being switched to the turf by trainer Dwaine Glenn earlier this winter, outgamed local grass sprint champ Whenthedoveflies to earn a neck victory while making his stakes debut in the $75,000 Turf Dash.
Around the Cape finished third, three-quarters of a length behind Whenthedoveflies, after being forced to check and alter course on a couple of occasions through the stretch.
Western Kind ($16.40) was ridden by Juan Umana.

Independent Living: "Being Green" Class Awarded Grant and Builds Compost Bin
Last fall our "Being Green" class welcomed ecomaine's Katrina Venhuizen to address our school on the importance of recycling. During her visit, she informed the "Being Green" teacher, Linda Nichols, about ecomaine's School Recycling Grant. In addition to taking responsibility for the existing recycling program at the Alt School, our class decided that addressing the food waste that our cafeteria produces was equally as important. Together, we wrote a detailed project outline describing our plans for the grant money and applied for the grant.
In December we received the news that the Waterville Alternative School was one of several Maine schools to be awarded an ecomaine School Recycling Grant. We received a grant in the amount of $1,000.00! After a field trip to Home Depot to buy materials to build our own three-compartment compost bin, our class began construction. Because of the lack of power tools in our building, Mark Champagne and students at the Mid-Maine Technical Center helped us out by cutting all of the lumber and the corrugated fiberglass that Alt students measured in preparation. Thanks, guys!
This winter posed quite the challenge for our compost project - most of the construction had to take place in sections in our small classroom. Also, because of the depth of the snow, we had to wait for melting to occur before we could place the bin in the chosen location on campus. The building process proved to be a blast! The students loved the hands-on experience, and those with carpentry skills really had the opportunity to shine! We finished the construction the day before April vacation, and on the day we returned, we were finally able to place the bin in the desired location. We officially began composting our food waste this week!
Our ultimate goals for our compost project is to decrease the amount of food waste we generate at the Alt School and to eventually produce fertile compost material to add to the existing Children's Place organic raised bed gardens on our campus at The Maine Children's Home for Little Wanderers on Silver Street. In addition, we have been working with Becky Judd, director of the Teen Parent Program, and Mandi Howard, director of The Children's Place, to bring together preschoolers and our alt students in a cooperative learning opportunity focusing on growing our own healthy and organic foods from seed. Thanks to a Healthy Waterville Mini Grant that Becky and Mandi were awarded, and our ecomaine grant, we have been able to join forces and resources in an effort to build several additional raised bed gardens and to purchase gardening supplies and classroom greenhouses.
One of our collaborative activities involved our students reading stories about planting seeds to the preschoolers and creating artwork based on the stories' themes. Since then, we have purchased seeds from the Hall School, and have been fortunate to have the assistance of representatives from Johnny's Selected Seeds who joined us last week in planting seeds (some of which they donated). The preschoolers and the high schoolers worked side-by-side planting a variety of organic vegetable seeds, as well as flowers, in trays to germinate in our classroom greenhouses. Some have already started to sprout!
Currently, we are getting materials together to build our larger raised bed gardens. We are hoping to finish the construction project within the next week or two. Again, we will be assisted by master gardeners from Johnny's Selected Seeds when we direct seed our gardens and when we plant our seedlings.
Not only have we been building structures for our organic gardening endeavor, but we have also been building a sense of community at our Silver Street campus. Staff from the various organizations are collaborating, and students of all ages are working together in an effort to grow our own organic food. In addition, we are beautifying the grounds in the process. It has been a win-win situation for all!

Chinese authorities clean up and crack down
21 May
Shops gutted, street food stalls swept away, blue-suited and red-armbanded chengguan (City Urban Administrative and Law Enforcement Bureau) prowl the side-streets just around the corner from Chicken Feet's King ready to nab any donkey cart salesman they spy.
It's not an uncommon sight in Beijing. Back in August, in late December, and again around the time of the Spring Festival in February, CFK saw local shops scarper for a couple of weeks as the local government went on a brief drive to create a harmonious society. Every time they were gone for a week. Every time, they popped up again once the bout of zealousness had subsided.
But this time looks serious. Today I walked past what is known as "Second Alley" on Huixin Dongjie to see broken glass, boarded windows and official notices pasted to walls. Nearby shopkeepers confirm that the woman who sold steamed stuffed buns there, together with her two neighbours, one who makes big jianbings and the other little jianbings, were all cleared out by the police one or two days ago. The chuan'r shop there where I ate one of my first meals in China on a metal stool under an umbrella in the baking August heat has been gutted. So has the fruit stall next to it. Many of the long-haulers on China Daily are saying they haven't seen a crackdown on this scale since the 2008 Olympics – the last time China and its government felt the need to look serious to the Chinese people and to the rest of the world.
It's not just Huixin Dongjie's local filth who are narrowing their eyes at wrongdoers – definitely not. A week ago, I received the following warning in an email from my language school:
"Several news items from trustworthy sources have reported that starting yesterday, the police are cracking down on 'visitors who commit crimes, outstay their visas or gain illegal employment" in a 100 day move to 'clean up the city'.
"I would like to stress that it is of the utmost importance in the coming 3 months to be careful in your behaviour… People who are not registered in your apartment should not be allowed to stay overnight, do not walk drunk on the streets or make a lot of noise, and surely refrain from smoking a joint, prostitution, or other violations of Chinese law."
Anyone who has read the news in China will know straight away where this apparently Victorian warning stems from.
On May 10, a video of a British man molesting a Chinese girl outside a mall in Xuanwumen, Beijing was posted online. Click here to see it – it's grim viewing.
For a few moments, you get the Brit horribly raping the poor girl. Then the Chinese guys holding the camera phone start to beat the shit out of him. There follows a few moments of the Brit lying unconscious in the middle of the road. Heavy breathing in the background is punctuated with angry Chinese. My Chinese language skills are ropey at the best of times, but I can at least understand the words "foreigner", "China" and "shabi" (the equivalent of something like "that fucking cunt") – which is pretty much all you need to work out the jist of what they are saying.
The video went viral and it hit the Chinese nerve of xenophobic distrust hard. A lot of foreign guys I know found it impossible to get taxis in the days that followed, which was obviously annoying for them. But that wasn't the main issue.
The incident has been quoted in every media release about the visa crackdown. It has formed the central official pretext for the purge of nasty foreigners who have outstayed their welcome. Who knows whether this guy was on a dodgy visa or not, or whether he'd been doing drugs or drinking? He was foreign, and doing bad things in a foreign way.
It's no secret that autumn will see the party changeover at the 18th National People's Congress. The potential for instability at a time when both Premier Wen Jiabao and President and Secretary Hu Jintao are stepping down is undeniable. We've seen a few reactions to moments of potential instability so far – take the blind activist Chen Guangcheng, or the Bo Xilai scandal.
I'm just speculating here. But everything that is currently facing this crackdown – revolting foreigner behaviour, dirty dumpling stands, fruit stalls operating without a licence – all seem to have a similar "smell", if you can call it that. They are all unclean.
They are all unharmonious.
No doubt the outgoing team wants to walk out looking as harmonious as possible to Chinese people and to the rest of the world.
I don't want to be a pessimist. But I fear that the government, both local and central, has plenty more harmony planned as autumn draws near.

USC-Ohio State Football Game To Be Shown Live In 3D At Galen Center
Aug. 24, 2009
Fans can watch the live ESPN telecast of the Sept. 12 USC football game at Ohio State in 3D for free at USC's Galen Center.
Free tickets to the 5 p.m. PDT Galen Center showing are available at:
--this Saturday's (Aug. 29) USC football intrasquad scrimmage at the Coliseum (pick up inside Gate 4 from noon to 3 p.m.);
--the Sept. 5 USC home game against San Jose State (pick up at Fanfest outside the Coliseum peristyle prior to the 12:30 p.m. kickoff);
--the Sept. 3 and 4 USC women's volleyball matches at the Galen Center (pick up at the box office from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.);
--Heritage Hall (pick up is from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. weekdays beginning Aug. 25);

The 3D version of the game also will be shown for free in theaters in Columbus, Ohio, Hartford, Conn. and Hurst, Texas (near Dallas).
The game will also be televised in standard definition and high definition on ESPN and ESPN HD, respectively.
The production will be ESPN's first 3D telecast distributed to fans in more than two years of testing, supplying further research for ESPN as it continues to develop the best practices for utilizing the technology in live game applications. It will provide ESPN the ability to evaluate workflow operations, 3D camera positioning, transmission changes and fan reaction to a 3D telecast versus a 2D.
ESPN will employ separate production trucks, technical crews and on-air commentators for the 3D and 2D productions. Mark Jones and Bob Davie will announce the 3D game, while Brent Musburger, Kirk Herbstreit and Lisa Salters will work the telecast on ESPN and ESPN HD.
ESPN will utilize the following technical elements during this production: first use of true stereoscopic graphics in a 3D telecast; seven 3D cameras to capture game action with access to 2D cameras; and various display types and transport mechanisms for 3D viewing, including cinema projection, large-scale arena viewing, and consumer LCD sized monitors.
'With more than two years of rigorous 3D research at various game sites, ESPN is taking the opportunity to integrate 3D testing in a live game telecast,' said Anthony Bailey, vice president, emerging technologies, ESPN. 'The results of this research will enable ESPN to quantify what it takes to produce, transmit and enable the 3D experience for our fans.'

10:16am UK, Thursday June 14, 2012
The Prime Minister is giving evidence at the Leveson Inquiry into media ethics at the Royal Courts of Justice in London.
David Cameron will face embarrassing questions about wining and dining with Murdoch executives, including former News International chief executive Rebekah Brooks, when he gives evidence at the Leveson Inquiry.
He will also be quizzed about his controversial decision to recruit Andy Coulson, the former News Of The World editor, as No 10 communications director after he had resigned from the paper over the phone-hacking scandal.
:: Follow the Prime Minister's testimony with our Sky News team
Mr Cameron's long awaited appearance at Leveson comes after the Government defeated a Labour move in the Commons to refer Culture Secretary Jeremy Hunt for investigation.
Labour wanted the PM's independent adviser on ministerial standards to probe Mr Hunt's handling of News Corporation's bid for BSkyB.
The PM will be quizzed over his meetings with Rebekah Brooks
The Government's victory came after Mr Cameron told MPs that his adviser, Sir Alex Allan, had written to him to say that he could not "usefully add to the facts" in the Hunt case uncovered by the Leveson Inquiry into media standards.
Labour dismissed Mr Cameron's comments as an ineffective "smokescreen" and said that the Prime Minister's judgment in appointing Mr Hunt to a quasi-judicial role in the BSkyB bid was in question.
:: Read more on the Leveson inquiry on our dedicated page
Senior Government insiders claim that when he appears before Lord Justice Leveson Mr Cameron will make clear that the Government will not adopt new plans for regulating the press that stifle freedom of speech.
The PM is expected to follow the tone of Education Secretary Michael Gove, a fierce critic of the Leveson Inquiry, by stressing that press freedom must be preserved at all costs.
But Mr Cameron's evidence is likely to be dominated by five key questions:
1. Did he ask Mr Coulson about phone-hacking before hiring him? If not, why not?
2. Why was Mr Coulson not given full security vetting?
3. Why did he hand Jeremy Hunt quasi-judicial responsibility for the BSkyB bid after he had written a memo to the Prime Minister supporting it?
4. Did he ever discuss phone-hacking with Rupert Murdoch, James Murdoch, Rebekah Brooks or any other News International executives? And if not, why not?
5. Did Rupert Murdoch ever pressure him to change government policy?
Mr Cameron is expected to face probing questions about his friendship with former newspaper boss Rebekah Brooks, after she said he texted her regularly and often signed off his text messages to her with 'LOL', which he wrongly believed stood for 'lots of love'.
He has also been forced to confess that he rode her horse Raisa with Mrs Brooks's husband Charlie, which was lent to her by the Metropolitan Police between 2008 and 2010, and that he went to her house in the Cotswolds for Christmas dinner.
The Prime Minister's allies claim he wants to put the record straight, as he sees it, over the decision not to subject his former spin doctor Mr Coulson to "developed vetting" (DV) – the higher form of security clearance – after he entered Downing Street following the general election.
He has said the reason why Mr Coulson was not subject to DV was that Sir Jeremy Heywood, the No 10 permanent secretary in 2010, wanted to restrict the access of politically-appointed special advisers handling communications to sensitive material.
But Mr Heywood changed this after a terror alert at East Midlands airport in October 2010.

The Saint John Regional Hospital Foundation is setting an ambitious goal of raising $1.7 million for the 2016 edition of The Give.
The focus this year is on Pediatric medicine which thrills Dr. Todd Lambert--Clinical department head for pediatrics in Saint John.
He calls it very exciting news particularly at a time when there has been a real change in pediatrics and what they are dealing which includes mental wellness in children.
Staff, volunteers and friends of the Regional Hospital also celebrating the success of The Give campaign for 2015. It raised more than 1.3 million dollars.
Regional Hospital Foundation President and CEO Jeff McAloon tells CHSJ News the big shiny peice of equipment to come out of the campaign is the O-Arm to help spinal surgeons and neurosurgeons.
He says the Regional will be one of 12 hospitals in Canada to get that equipment and it will really advance the surgery program.
