Anyone who knows me will tell you that I like to throw a fun party. I enjoy the planning process. Thinking of a theme, planning the menu, decorating my house, etc., is really fun for me. These days with two small kids, it's harder for me to put as much effort as I'd like into planning parties and gatherings with friends. But, I still do my best to make it a nice event, try to enjoy the process and love the social aspect of the party the most (especially the wine drinking!).
Last weekend, Andy and I hosted three couples, two of whom didn't know each other. These are my favorite dinners…I love the opportunity to introduce people and get to know others better.
The key to planning a nice party, especially when you have limited time, is to plan in advance and save only the necessary things for the last minute. I put just as much emphasis into the decorating and table setting as I do the food. Delegating is also key. If someone wants to bring something, let them! We also assume that nothing is going to be perfect and try to enjoy our guests.
Below is the menu from our dinner party last weekend. I wanted a "summery" and casually-sophisticated menu. It's not particularly special but was enjoyed by all.
The Game Plan
Friday night:
- Buy flowers and groceries.
- Make dessert and put in the fridge to chill.
Saturday morning:
- Set the table.
- Make the meat marinade and marinate the meat.
- Cut the goat cheese log, marinated it in oil with rosemary.
- Cut up the mint and put it in the lemonade and vodka for the signature drink.
- Cut the veggies.
Saturday afternoon and evening:
- Make the salad (reserve the dressing).
- Rotate the meat (every two hours).
- Set up the drinks and appetizers
- Start the grill.
- Begin to sauté the veggies and boil the potatoes.
- Bake the breadcrumbs. Dredge the goat cheese in baked crumbs and return to oven.
- Cook steaks; then let them rest.
- Warm bread in oven.
The Menu
Appetizer: Fresh bruschetta with goat cheese spread (brought by a friend)
Cocktail: Mint-Vodka Lemonade
Salad: Arugula, fresh peaches, toasted walnuts, basil, and baked goat cheese (dredged in breadcrumbs)
Bread: Gruyère and sour dough, warmed (from Trader Joes)
Marinated flank steak: The key with the steak is the marinate it all day.
Side 1: Sautéed mixed veggies of mushrooms, red onions and asparagus (butter, olive oil, salt and pepper, white wine)
Side 2: Salt potatoes (red potatoes boiled in salt water, butter and chives added optionally)
Desert: Raspberry shortcake served with whipped cream and fresh berries

Flat Front Woven Pant is rated out of 5 by 3.
Rated 1 out of 5 by june57 from Bummer I bought several pairs of these pants. Heaven forbid if you get a stain on them. They are not colorfast. If you wash they will shrink a whole size without putting in dryer. Even at dry cleaners stains can't be removed without taking color from pants. The worst purchase I ever made. They are way over priced for the quality of these pants.

She – she just Gibbs-smacked him! I love it!
Second panel = Best boobs…ever drawn…anywhere…EVER!!!
Not a problem, TK. Hope you had some fun somewhere in all of that. And thanks for honoring my selfish request! (Who wins when there's a new page o' Nikki? Answer: we all do.)
Am really enjoying this full-on display of Kib's rampant elven douchebaggery. My only critique would be: it sure looks like Terestai is completely made up of about four people. Maybe a shot or scene of Alondra addressing the masses (though I know "masses" would be a pain and a half to render). I'm sure there are other fae and elves and pims and reedflies ready to join their lady's cause!
I just thought of a great new way to insult someone (when you really need to, but REALLY don't want them to know they were insulted): "Wow! You're as smart as Kib!" rofl
I thought ouch about the incentive also, but keep them coming I like them
I loved the new vote incentive (and didn't really catch the "weight distribution" issue the first time around). Reminded me of Kelly and Jocelyn. Any chance we'll see more of those BFFs in the future?

(WASHINGTON) — President Donald Trump has consistently pushed back against the idea of Russia meddling in the election that put him in power, dismissing that claim as a hoax and an affront to the legitimacy of his victory.
Now, in a 37-page indictment Friday, special counsel Robert Muller has laid bare in excruciating detail the details of one Russian scheme, designed in part to benefit Trump's election run. It even shows contacts between foreigners and his campaign, albeit unwitting.
And Trump's national security adviser, H.R. McMaster, said Saturday at a conference in Germany that "the evidence is now incontrovertible" that Moscow interfered in the 2016 campaign.
Trump had seized on the fact that the Russian "information warfare" effort, as a top Justice Department official called it, began in 2014, before Trump announced his White House run. His team noted that the Russian efforts to sow discord are also said to have benefited Bernie Sanders, who was running for the Democratic presidential
Trump also asserted that the indictment proved there was "no collusion" between his campaign and the Russians.
His cheers of vindication Friday appeared to be more show than substance.
The administration still harbors deep worries about the direction of Mueller's nine-month probe, which has shown no signs of abating and has expanded to explore potential obstruction of justice on the part of the president and his top aides.
"Russia started their anti-US campaign in 2014, long before I announced that I would run for President," Trump tweeted after the indictment was unveiled. "The results of the election were not impacted. The Trump campaign did nothing wrong — no collusion."

Parental insurance benefits are taxable at both government levels (provincial and federal).
You may request that the basic amount, or the amount transferred from the spouse, be considered as income tax credits. They can then be applied to the deductions at source from your benefits.
If you wish to have the tax deduction increased, in addition to the basic amount or amount transferred from the spouse, you must specify the gross amounts (per two-week payment) you would like deducted from your benefits.
If you are a Status Indian and the income eligible for the Québec Parental Insurance Plan is tax-exempt, you may request an exemption from deductions at source, if you so wish.

We talked about how to recover your information after you smashed your phone in last blog. But what if the phone was so broken that the information in it can not be recovered? Or you accidentally lost your phone? That's when the idea of "back up" hits you.
We all know that All-In-One Toolbox can help you back up your apps to your SD card. But how about Contacts ans sms?
So in this blog I'm gonna introduce you some useful tips about backing up your contact and sms to your Gmail which might be a safer place than SD card considering your phone might get stolen.
Backup Contacts Using Gmail
This is the best method if you want to store your contacts safely at any place. And if I say the place is Gmail owned by Google then you don't need to worry for everything at all. As you know Google forces Android users to use a Gmail account with their device. You can synchronize your contacts and can store them on your Gmail account. Just follow the steps:-
- Open Setting option in your phone.
- Find "Account and SYNC"or "Google" and click on it.
- Then just click on your email address and then from menu click on "Sync Now".
- This way your contacts and other app data will be saved on Gmail online.
- You can access them form Gmail anytime.
Backup Your Text Messages to Your Gmail Account
Backing up your text messages from your Android phone to your Gmail account is so simple there's no reason to not back them up and make them search-friendly in the process. Read on to see how you can turn your Gmail account into an SMS vault.
What Do I Need?
It's easy to lose your text messages. Everything from switching phones to fumble fingers can drop your messages in front of the digital reaper—just last night I managed to accidently delete a massive SMS thread when I really only intended to delete a single message that refused to send.
Backing up your SMS messages to your Gmail account is so simple, however, there's no good reason not to do it. For this tutorial you'll need three things:
- Your Android phone
- A free copy of SMS Backup+
- A Gmail account
Got all that? Let's get started!
Note: Technically, you can dig around the advanced settings of SMS Backup+ to reconfigure it to work with any IMAP-enabled email server. However, since it was designed to work with Gmail and works so well with Gmail's search, threading, and starring functionality, we're not going to mess with a good thing.
Configuring Your Gmail Account for IMAP Access
SMS Backup+ requires IMAP access to your Gmail account to function. Let's take a moment and hop over to the Gmail account we're planning on using with the application and check the status.
Login to your Gmail account and navigate to Settings –> Forwarding and POP/IMAP. Check Enable IMAP. Scroll down and click Save Changes. That's the only configuration you'll need to do within your Gmail account.
Then install the SMS Backup+
The first step is to set up the connection to your Gmail account. Tap Connect. The default browser on your Android phone will launch and you'll be prompted to login to the Gmail account you want to use for backing up your messages.
Then you just follow the step it told, you can easily get your sms back up.

I have added a Close button using Insert > HTML help Control > Close Window. It places the Close button in the topic. I generate the help, and when I view it, the Close button is no longer there. I am in RH 9 and working with FM 10 files in RH. Why does the Close button not display in my local help?
What is your help output? WebHelp, AIRHelp, FlashHelp, Microsoft HTML Help, etc
This is an HTML Help control. Seems to be present and work fine if I compile a CHM file. But if I generate WebHelp, it's missing.
However, it's easy enough to script if you want. Just add a JavaScript command of window.close() to a link or a button. But don't be surprised if it fails to work a lot of the time. Closing a window is a troublesome thing. Just do a Google search for JavaScript window close to see what I mean.
Cheers... Rick

Continuing on from last week, we'll look in more detail at the most common flaws found during the read through of your novel/short story. These are typical errors rather than case specific, the kind that every writer should be aware of, and more attuned to, when reading through work.
Pathetic Plotting
Stories need a lot of thought where plots, subplots and subtle twists and turns are concerned. That's because they all need resolving satisfactorily by the end of the story.
In simple terms, this means providing the reader with something believable and tangible rather than something that is contrived, forced, ridiculous or highly unbelievable. Any first draft story will have numerous weaknesses where plot is concerned. The read through will flag these for you to address. Weak plots will instantly show up, as will gaping errors within the narrative.
If you don't resolve them correctly, then you've created a plot flaw and your reader will spot this. All issues in your novel/story must be addressed.
Also, a plot demands that you don't create something you can't plausibly unravel without creating a huge headache trying to resolve it. Don't make impossible situations with in a plot (more on this in part 3).
It's advisable to outline how the story will take shape – use it as a rough guideline, a skeletal framework from which to work. Preparation and planning helps you focus your ideas, design subplots and possible twists, and it keeps a writer from straying too far from the story.
If holes open up within your plot, examine why this is so, then go back and attempt to fix them (plausibly).
Logic First
Every story must be easy to follow and it must occur logically. If the story doesn't make sense in certain parts, you must go back and examine why and then fix it. The whole story must make sense, not just bits of it, otherwise you will weaken the story.
Every story is borne from preceding events. Logic demands that for every situation within the plot, a resolution must follow. For this reason, new writers should try not to make the plot too complicated, otherwise you could end up confusing your reader, plus it will just cause more headaches in the writing process trying to resolve them.
There is a tendency with some writers to resort to deux ex machina when they run into plot trouble. This particular 'get out clause' means, roughly, "God out of the machine", and refers to a writer acting in a God like manner when a seemingly complicated problem or situation is suddenly solved in contrived, unexpected and often unbelievable way.
For example, the hero is imprisoned by the villain, and the hero's love interest is thrown into the ocean for shark bait…but suddenly the police swoop in to rescue her (having made no mention of police or implied their intervention in preceding events), thus leaving the hero to fight the villain and win the day…everyone lives happily ever after. This is classic deux ex machina.
Every event in the story has a timeline to follow – chronologically – so an event happens, an obstacle for the protagonist is created, and then the situation is resolved by said protagonist in a satisfactory manner. Everything occurs logically.
Terrible Characters
Another problem that arises during a read through is the lack of depth from your characters. Often they don't feel right, or you feel that something is missing from them. This is invariably because they lack emotional depth; there is little personality that comes through for a reader to empathise with, there is no substance to who your characters are.
Thinly drawn or vague characters will weaken any story because without a clearly visible personality, emotions, imperfections and faults etc, there will be no descriptions attributed to them within the narrative, hence the problem of shallow characters that don't feel right or are missing something.
Make sure your characters have a fully formed background, a range of emotions,full personality traits and character flaws. They need to be as complex and as fragile as real people.
A writer will instinctively know during a read through if something doesn't feel right, or something doesn't work, or the characters just aren't interesting enough. It's imperative that these common errors are found before the manuscript finds its way onto the editor's desk. Finding them and fixing them is all part of the writing process - it shouldn't be left to an editor to do the work for you.
We'll look at how they can be fixed next week, and ways in which you can improve the process.
Next Week: Part 3 – Pacing problems, implausible twists, continuity and places.

Being a vocal supporter of Fresno tends to feel like preaching to the choir.
So, it's heartening when someone outside the region – outside the state even – gets hip to all of the city's positives. For instance, New York Times writer Mike McPhate, whose daily column included a piece on why Fresno gets a bad rap. His commentary comes on the heels of a study from the financial website GoBankingRates, which found one could live in Fresno (and fairly well) on income of roughly $44,500 a year. That makes it one of the most affordable places to live in the country.
Couple that with our art scene, proximity to pretty much any kind of outdoor recreation imaginable (seriously) and budding tech sector and McPhate argues there are reasons to love Fresno. I'd add the exploding craft beer scene and a couple of regional music festivals, but that's just me. Of course, McPhate is not the first outside to make the case for Fresno. The Atlantic's James Fallows was impressed by Fresno (and wrote about it intelligently) when he stopped through last year.
It's the kind of talk that makes a mayor proud.
"We see the results of our hard work every day, so it's great news to know that we're getting positive affirmation and support from across the country," says Fresno Mayor Lee Brand.
"To have the 'New York Times 'tell the world about 'Reasons to Love Fresno' is something that should make us all proud."

Start with two decks of cards: CHARACTERS (white cards) and ATTRIBUTES (black cards). Invariably your cards will be all mixed up so go ahead and sort that out.
One player starts by drawing three white cards and three black cards and keeps them, like his/her nonsense opinions, to him/herself. A second player does the same.
Each player chooses one white card and one black card from their hand to create a fighter and places those cards face down and discards their remaining cards.
Next, both players turn over their cards with maximum dramatic tension to reveal their fighters. Laughter occurs. Each player then draws a random black card from the deck and adds it to their fighter. More laughter.
Embrace the hand life has dealt you and argue why your fighter would win the fight. Your friends/future arch rivals vote for a winner and he/she takes home the point and takes on a new challenger. What happens in the event of a tie?
Uh… SMOKE BOMB! Just kidding. Check the full rules, we've thought of virtually everything. I say "virtually" because we almost certainly have forgotten things. Like where our keys are… Or our dignity.
Am I right?
PLAY with a group of up to four players using matchmaking or inviting your friends.
VOTE on fighters from previous games, guessing a match-up's outcome to earn rewards.
ARGUE using integrated in-game voice and optional webcam support to make your case!
WATCH and vote for winners in live broadcasts of fights directly within Superfight or any device with Twitch!
COLLECT over 500 additional cards, on top of the 200+ cards unlocked immediately upon purchase, as you Play or Vote!
UNLOCK over 130 Titles based on how you play! Customize your round introduction with your Titles.
EXPAND your card count with the included free Location, Scenario, and Challenge Decks! More decks available as DLC!

It's been a busy couple of weeks at our house. Between work and various family events we've been constantly on the go! But it's hard to complain because we absolutely love spending quality time with our families (plus, there's usually some seriously amazing food involved). This weekend we celebrated Cotey's mom's birthday. We made up a ton of homemade Chinese food, which is something we've never really done on a big scale. It was a lot of work, but so worth it!
I'll admit Cotey did most of the work though. He really is the best. Although I'm happy to report I did contribute to the menu this time around..I'm actually pretty proud of myself! I made these scrumptious cream cheese wontons which were a huge hit. There weren't even any leftovers. I first got the idea from our local Chinese buffet, which serves these little crispy cream cheese wontons (I could literally eat a whole plate of them). Cream cheese wontons are actually pretty standard at Chinese restaurants, although this recipe is a little bit of an upgrade from those. I love how the chili paste gives these some nice heat. These wontons are also so easy to make, there's only five ingredients! Note: this recipe makes enough wontons for a party of about 12-15 people. You may need to scale down to fit your needs.
Cream Cheese Wontons
- Two packages cream cheese, softened
- One package wonton wrappers
- Two tablespoons Sambal Oelek chili paste
- Two stalks green onion, sliced
- Oil for frying
Start by placing cream cheese, chili paste and green onions in a large bowl. Using gloves, hand mix the ingredients until well combined. It should look like this.
Next, assemble a small prep area. You'll need wonton wrappers and a small bowl of water. Take a pinch of the cream cheese mix (about a teaspoon) and place in the center of the wonton wrapper. Make sure not to overstuff the wontons.
To seal the wontons, dip your pointer finger in some water and line the four corners of the wrapper. Fold up into a triangle shape and press down firmly. Be sure to get any air pockets out by going over the wonton with your fingers.
Now comes the best part. Add enough oil for frying to a large pot. You'll end up covering a couple of inches of the bottom of the pot. Heat to about 350 degrees. Drop the wontons a few pieces at a time and fry until golden brown. They tend to float so be sure to rotate the wontons so both sides get fried evenly. Remove from oil and place on a napkin lined plate to remove the excess oil. Once they're all fried it's time to serve! I like to dip mine in Mae Ploy, which is a sweet chili sauce. You can find it at any grocery store in the Asian section. Yum!

From here, you can expect to see tens of thousands of dusky and cackling Canada geese in the spring and fall, along with countless other waterfowl.
This shirt out and back provided some gorgeous views!
Great place to see tons of different birds. The trailhead area was swarmed with wasps, avoid covered informational area. Perfect family stroll to the outlook & back.

Hi, take a look at this Behringer UFO202 U-phono USB Audio Interface: Amazon.co.uk: Musical Instruments it uses the USB to connect. I use it successfully with my NUC6i5 and Audacity,

Thank you PeeBee,
Looking for converters I came across this one, but did not recognize it as a converter. Also with usb 1.1 I abandoned it to look for HDMI.
Since you even use it on a NUC6i5 I immediately ordered one here in France. There are some 240 albums I would like to digitize and re-listen since 2006 and for € 33 is worth a try.

maslow, were you able to test the converter?
Let me know your findings.

Bonjour Amy,
Just got back from my holidays and saw your question; I did not forget you though.
Since summer has arrived, I do not have a lot of time to play around with my music, but the things I can tell you are these ( from before holidays);
- the little box works good
- it is easy to connect with my sansui amplifier and my nuc
- the dell soundbar on my monitor sounds awful
- people on the internet say to listen back to the music via headphones
- go to behringer and download manual and asio4all driver for the ufo202
- go to sourceforge to download audacity to handle the digitization of your music
- search on the internet on how to digitalize your old music from cassette etc. with audacity
This is the thing that already cost me a lot of time and will do so even more in the future. It's always the software that you have to try to master. The hardware is so straight forward and easy to manage.
So, it's not the costs in this case, but the time and perseverance that counts.
I know it will keep me busy for months to get the hang of it, and ... I am looking forward to my victory!
So .. success Amy

I have digitized close to 50 albums using a similar device. I have at least 100 more to do (sigh!). No choice for some of them; they are not available on CD. Anyway, I found that each album, which average ~45 minutes in length, takes me ~3 hours to digitize. This includes time for recording, level setting, trimming and hiss/pop/click clean up (I use MAGIX's Audio Cleaning Lab application for this; it works really, really well).
My (unfortunately, aging) stereo system includes a top-of-the-line (in its day) JVC manual turntable with Stanton and Shure cartridges and I use this primarily. The USB capture device came with 25' shielded cables, which allowed me to semi-permanently connect the stereo system and my main PC (even though in different rooms) without any perceptible audio quality loss. I was gifted one of those "Quick Play" USB turntables, but found its quality to not be up to snuff (you get what you pay for; this is a US$40 cheapo).
7. Re: How to connect a AD audio converter to NUC5i3ryhJun 27, 2016 10:03 AM (in response to maslow)
maslow, thank you for coming back with your outcome.
I am glad to hear that, hope you can enjoy your music.
8. Re: How to connect a AD audio converter to NUC5i3ryhmaslow Aug 14, 2016 10:32 AM (in response to maslow)
Hello PeeBee,
Audacity does not seem to like or understand my NUC, or... I do not know how to configure Audacity, or .... etc.
I have looked everywhere on the internet, trying to understand things, or testing with other audio-software but no luck.
Since you wrote that you also use the UFO202 together with your NUC, I am very interested in your Audacity setup.
Here is what I am using all together:
1 NUC5i3RYH
2 Realtek 7.1
3 Windows 10 Pro (the latest audio and usb drivers)
4 Audacity 2.1.2
5 DELL U2515H (I disabled the soundbar that was optional, so as to work with less variables for Audacity)
6 JVC TD-WE91 stereo double cassette deck, as replacement for my Sansui cassette deck that died on me)
7 Behringer UFO202
The only setup I can use in Audacity is with some microphone recording device (see images attached) the stereo audio mixer from Realtek does not perform when it is setup as the standard recording device.
Does Audacity behave the same way with your NUC?
Maybe you can share some tips and or tricks with me?

The best is when he murders Toews
I've seen a lot better hits from JB than some of the ones you have here.
horrible video, great hits of course but horrible vid. 6 minute vid should
be a 1-2 min vid. sorry
This guy plays so much bigger than he is. Love Destroychuk and so glad he's
a Bruin
Johnny Destroy'chuk!
The best♦①
Very solid player all-around. Solid clean hitter, reliable on defense and
has a knack for scoring timely goals as well.
best part about all of these is that they are all HUGE and COMPLETELY LEGAL
Komisarek was an A?
The Boston commentators are so annoying…
On the Nate Thompson one did he mean his dick is 3in shorter
Boychuk is BEASTMODE… the opposite of Richard Sherman…
Hard to believe he's only 6'2″.
Cleanest hitter in the game today. Hard nosed clean hockey. Boston needs to

We are very excited to form NuArx as a new company focusing all of its resources to securing our customer's electronic payments and to delivering a complete portfolio of compliance products and services to our merchant customers.
Southfield, MI (PRWEB) May 02, 2016
NuArx Inc. (NuArx), today announced its spin-off from ANXeBusiness Corp. (ANX) as a new corporation providing PCI compliance and secure payment solutions to merchants and premium brands. The company previously operated as the compliance business unit of ANX, which has entered into a definitive agreement to be sold to a global leader in Enterprise Information Management.
"We are very excited to form NuArx as a new company focusing all of its resources on securing our customers' electronic payments and delivering a complete portfolio of compliance products and services to our merchant customers," said Rich Stanbaugh, former CEO of ANX and the new CEO of NuArx.
Since 2012, more than 2,000 payment card data breaches have affected more than 200 million payment card customers and have damaged the reputations of many trusted brands. The need for solutions that improve and simplify secure transactions continues to grow across the retail landscape. At the same time, new card technologies make maintaining a secure environment that much more complicated for individual retailers.
"As payment card technologies evolve, more responsibility is being placed on merchants for the security of the cardholder data environment," continued Stanbaugh, "we expect to be the go-to solution for corporate brands and merchants looking to protect their brand equity and simplify their PCI compliance activities."
In addition to carrying over all the resources and team members from ANX that have made their compliance business so successful, NuArx will also benefit from the continued support of ANX's previous owner, One Equity Partners (OEP), a private equity firm that invests in a variety of industries including technology and technology-enabled services. OEP has re-invested a portion of the proceeds from selling ANX into NuArx.
"Following our past success at ANX, OEP is continuing to partner with this exceptional management team, supporting NuArx as it grows rapidly by providing critical compliance functions in the payment space," said Jamie Koven, Senior Managing Director at One Equity Partners. Pacific Crest Securities, a division of KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. served as financial advisor to ANX for this transaction.
NuArx is a new name for a company with over 15 years of experience in the PCI compliance industry and a track record of serving over 40,000 merchant locations. NuArx makes PCI compliance easy while providing unparalleled expertise and service to its clients. For more information, visit http://www.nuarxinc.com.

Per www.globalinsolvency.com:
Wed., July 11, 2012
Drydocks World, the shipbuilding and repair arm of Dubai World, has finally obtained the official go-ahead from creditors for its $2.2 billion debt-restructuring plan, theKhaleej Times reported. At a meeting in Dubai on Tuesday, creditors holding more than 97 per cent of the debt to be restructured officially agreed to the deal, a statement from professional services firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers, or PwC, said. PwC is advising Drydocks on the restructuring alongside law firm Clifford Chance. "The approval of the proposals at today's meetings is a fundamental step to concluding Drydocks ' debt restructuring," said Ian Schneider, a partner at PwC. "The level of support received by the companies far exceeded the two-thirds majority required by the Decree 57 legislation to approve these proposals," the statement said. The shipbuilding and repair company, which has unveiled an ambitious underwater hotels and floating cities project, the first of its kind in the region, is using the Dubai World Tribunal, a special judicial body formed by Dubai's Decree 57 of 2009, to expedite its restructuring proposals. PwC said Drydocks would seek a sanction of the approvals from the Tribunal at a hearing on August 28. If the Tribunal gives its blessing, "the restructuring should be formally effective shortly thereafter," PwC's statement said. The tribunal was set up in the wake of Dubai's 2009 debt crisis as part of new legal procedures meant to govern the restructuring of Dubai World debts. A panel of three judges from Britain and Singapore presides over the Dubai World Tribunal. The Government of Dubai developed Decree No. 57 to allow groups such as Drydocks World to implement a restructuring where its proposals had the support of a significant majority of its lenders, but where it does not have the requisite 100 per cent buy-in needed to implement its plans successfully. It is understood only one creditor did not attend Tuesday's meetings or vote on the restructuring proposal. Monarch Alternative Capital, a private US hedge fund, has been holding out on the deal and won a claim against Drydocks in London this March. The news about the long-pending debt deal came as Drydocks World announced the completion of maintenance work on Abu Dhabi-UAE based National Drilling Company's drilling platform, Delma, which was built in Brazil in 1983

This year, Nueva music teacher Jim Munzenrider and middle school head Liza Raynal chaperoned an optional trip to Trinidad over February break for ten steelpan players ranging from 7th through 11th grade. The last group of students who travelled to Trinidad are now in college and we were thrilled to return.
This is the time in the pre-Lenten calendar that the island of Trinidad — along with Rio, New Orleans, and Venice — gears up for carnival. The steel drum, a ubiquitous presence at Nueva, was born on Trinidad and our group took a pilgrimage to see what the instrument truly sounds like when played as a part of a 100-piece band.
Over the course of the trip, the group listened to calypsonians play, learned to walk on stilts, visited monuments, and heard pan, pan, pan. A full-body arts and cultural immersion, the Trinidad trip exposed students to the sound, color, music, and art of cultural resistance.
Here are some "dispatches from the field", excerpted from blogs sent home to families during our first-ever, one-school international trip.

The Debian project is distributed as a collection of packages, 48,000 of them, as of Debian Wheezy. These packages are categorized into three areas: main, contrib and non-free, mainly based on licensing requirements, e.g., Debian Free Software Guidelines (DFSG).
The main area contains free software that complies with DFSG. The contrib area contains free software that complies with DFSG, but relies on non-free software for compilation or execution. Finally, the non-free area contains non-free packages that are not compliant with DFSG but redistributable. The main repository is considered a part of Debian, but neither contrib or non-free repository is. The latter two are maintained and provided only as a convenience to users.
Enable Contrib and Non-free Repositories on Debian
If you want to install any non-free package maintained by Debian, you need to enable contrib and non-free repositories. To do so, open /etc/apt/sources.list with a text editor, and append "contrib non-free" to each source.
The following is an example of /etc/apt/sources.list for Debian Wheezy.
deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ wheezy main contrib non-free deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ wheezy main contrib non-free deb http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main contrib non-free deb-src http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main contrib non-free # wheezy-updates, previously known as 'volatile' deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ wheezy-updates main contrib non-free deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ wheezy-updates main contrib non-free
After modifying sources of packages, run the following command to download package index files for contrib and non-free repositories.
If you are using aptitude, run the following instead.
Now you are ready to search and install any non-free package on Debian.

Your ears are one of the most essential parts of your body. It helps you experience the best feeling of being alive and it also gives you pleasure by listening to the kind of music you love. But, have you ever imagined what kind of world would you have if you lose your hearing? Well, it could be something as dark and bad as a nightmare.
Your ears can be damaged in many ways and one of these is through listening and hearing too much noise that could lead to the disruption of your hearing which is called "tinnitus". This ringing in the ears or tinnitus is a kind of disease wherein you will suffer from hearing irritating sounds that are affecting the ears and can be the reason for you to lose your hearing ability. You can acquire this if you are exposed to very loud noise, infections in your ears or encountering accidents that have caused injury that has affected your nerve endings.
If you have this, there is no need for you to worry too much for there are home remedies which can help you stop ears ringing.
If you exercise regularly, proper circulation of blood will take place. This will lead to a good flow of blood to your ear's structure. However, you have to do away with exercises where you need to put too much tension on your neck because instead of curing tinnitus, you may just worsen it.
One of the best things that you should do is to avoid noise which you think has caused the ringing in your ears. You may use earplugs or earmuffs that will protect your ears and hinder the noise from entering it. Thus, you may also focus on some interesting things rather than stressing yourself due to the noise that you hear.
This may be hard to do especially if the ringing in your eras is really so annoying, but nonetheless, this is one of the most effective ways for you to treat tinnitus. You have to exercise meditation and other techniques that will make you feel relaxed because too much anxiety and fatigue will just aggravate your ears ringing.
White noise is the kind which does not irritate you. Instead, it makes you feel relaxed and comfortable. You should not stay in a very quiet room or area because your tinnitus will just become more irritating. So, if you have found yourself in a very serene room, you may play soothing music on the radio or turn on the fan for you to have a calming background sound.
For you to really cope with tinnitus, you must have a healthy lifestyle. You should avoid drinking alcohol or those liquids that contain caffeine. Avoid vices like smoking because tobacco products have nicotine which restrains the blood from circulating in the structure of your ears.
If you don't want to suffer from tinnitus and lose one of your most treasured abilities, be careful about how you live your life. But if you have already acquired this disease, it is not the end of the world yet. You can still do many things to treat it.

Diffusion of Innovations & LMS (Teaching and Learning)
|This article is a stub. You can help the UBC Community by expanding it.
|This page is part of the Teaching and Learning Resources Portal
Diffusion of Innovations is a theory that seeks to explain how, why, and at what rate new ideas and technology spread through cultures. Everett Rogers, a professor of rural sociology, popularized the theory in his 1962 book Diffusion of Innovations. He said diffusion is the process by which an innovation is communicated through certain channels over time among the members of a social system. The origins of the diffusion of innovations theory are varied and span multiple disciplines. Rogers (1962) espoused the theory that there are four main elements that influence the spread of a new idea: the innovation, communication channels, time, and a social system. This process relies heavily on human capital. The innovation must be widely adopted in order to self-sustain. Within the rate of adoption, there is a point at which an innovation reaches critical mass.The categories of adopters are: innovators, early adopters, early majority, late majority, and laggards (Rogers 1962, p. 150). Diffusion of Innovations manifests itself in different ways in various cultures and fields and is highly subjective to the type of adopters and innovation-decision process.

Customer / Production Management System
Orçamento min $3000 USD
This project will entail building a customer / production management system. This system will include the following sections:
Customer invoice pages - The customer invoice pages will include a sales page where our sales agents can collect information about customers, items being purchased, billing information (including processing payments through [url removed, login to view]), and shipping information. The 'items being purchased' will be pulled from our current database and will require some AJAX to implement. After submitting the purchase order the information will be displayed on a basic printable invoice page. The customer invoice pages will also include an admin to organize, display and modify invoices.
Core department pages - Our core department will receive it's instructions once a customer invoice is created. The core department must locate the items being purchased. Once a purchase order is made the core department will see the item on their admin. Each item will have its own item page where the department will document their steps in locating, purchasing, and receiving the item. Once the item is received, the core department will mark it as received and the item will move on to the builder department.
Builder department pages - We employ multiple builders and they build items using a queuing system. If we have 3 builders, and there are 12 items to be built, each builder will have 2 items in their personal queue, leaving 6 items in the shoot. Once a builder finishes an item, they start on their 2nd item and one of the 6 in the shoot drop into their personal queue. For this reason the builder pages will require a queuing system. Each builder will have their own admin section where they will see what items are in their personal queue and each item will have their own page for documenting the building process. This will mainly be a series of checkboxes. Once the builder marks an item as completed the item will move onto the shipping department.
Part department pages - The parts department pages will include a part ordering form. When a part is requested the form will be filled out and submitted to an admin section. When a part is received from our vendor the parts department will open the page for that part, mark it as received, enter the amount paid and so on.
Shipping department - The shipping pages will include an admin listing out all shipments that are going out or coming in. Each shipment will have its own page which will allow the shipper to document the weight, price, times and so on.
We would also like to attach this to Quickbooks using their API and most likely our freight carrier (Con-Way).
While there are a few other minimal sections to this project, these are the major ones. Take your estimated time on the items listed above and add 10% - 20% to it and you are probably pretty close to the total project time.

No excuses
An important lesson can be derived from this sicha about spreading the Noahide Laws:
The challenge is raised, "Is disseminating the Noahide Code the only thing we lack? There are other important things."
Obviously, this challenge is absurd. Such an attitude can bring one to refrain from observing all the Mitzvot of the Torah, for no matter which Mitzvah arises, he will always claim to be busy with another!
This claim can even be used to exempt oneself, may G–d save us, from adhering to all the 613 Mitzvot, including the Mitzvah of accepting upon oneself the yoke of the Kingdom of Heaven.[1] He will claim that since he is busy with something else, he cannot engage in accepting the yoke of the Kingdom of Heaven!
He may even claim to be busy doing a fellow Jew a favor, or concerned with how to prevent a Jew from stumbling and acting inappropriately. If he engages in accepting the yoke of the Kingdom of Heaven, the favor performed for that Jew would be incomplete, he claims. He wants to think about that Jew, the favor, the value of a Jew's material needs, and the like—leaving no time for contemplating the Kingdom of Heaven!
One need not search in books to discover this. This phenomenon actually exists. Experience shows that when one turns to certain Jews and asks them why they don't engage in prayer, or perform similar Mitzvot between man and G–d, they respond that they prefer to perform Mitzvot between man and his fellow!
Sometimes the person is not merely attempting to slip out of it. He indeed donates a lot of charity, and assists Jews in a manner of "with all your heart and with all your soul."[2] Nevertheless, to use this fact not to pray to G–d and not to accept upon oneself the yoke of the Kingdom of Heaven is contrary to Torah. He does a disservice both to himself and to those whom he assists, whom he uses to exempt himself from accepting the yoke of the Kingdom of Heaven!
Although "One cannot act as an agent to commit a sin,"[3] this simply means that this is not considered agency in the full halachic sense. However, by instructing someone to sin one certainly violates the prohibition, "do not place a stumbling block before a blind man."[4] Indeed, the Code of Jewish Law[5] rules that although "One cannot act as an agent to commit a sin," it is still forbidden to instruct a Jew to violate the Code of Jewish Law, on account of "do not place a stumbling block before a blind man." [Similarly, he inflicts spiritual harm upon those whom he uses to exempt himself from Mitzvot between man and G–d.]
Just as this concept applies to accepting the yoke of the Kingdom of Heaven in general, it also applies to numerous other areas, albeit more subtle. However, this example illustrates how far such a line of reasoning is liable to lead.
Hitva'aduyot 5747, Vol. 2, pp. 616-617.
[1] By reciting the Shema.
[2] Deut., 6:5.
[3] I.e., an agent cannot claim innocence by attributing guilt to the dispatcher—Babylonian Talmud, Kiddushin, 42b—in this case, using the recipients of one's charity as an excuse not to perform Mitzvot between man and G–d.
[4] I.e., do not facilitate violation of a sin—Leviticus, 19:14.
This principle exists in an extreme form, where Jews dismiss religious observance because "I'm not a religious man, etc." This attitude is really easy to poke fun at, because it is so transparently false. But as the Rebbe says at the end of this sicha, the same principle applies on a more subtle level too. When we simply neglect one area on which we are supposed to be investing effort, and tell ourselves that it doesn't matter because we're working on something else instead that is also of merit, we fall into the same trap. The truth is that we are fully capable of doing both, and this is just a way of excusing our laziness. We use G–d to ignore G–d.
As Chassidim, the same principle applies to instructions and wishes of the Rebbeim in all areas.
For example, I have heard the same claim made in all seriousness concerning Hisbonenus: "I can't do it because I don't have the time." Why not for at least five or ten minutes, I ask? If not every day, why not at least once a week? No response. The answer is simple. The person is simply not interested in investing the necessary effort (and it is indeed very hard), so he finds an excuse.
Let's get this straight: If it is indeed something we are instructed to do, then we are granted the opportunity and energy to do it, because "I [G–d] only ask of them according to their ability."[1]
Thus, even if we don't yet do all the things that we should, let's at least come closer to that goal by recognizing that our inaction is no one's fault but our own. The start of Avodah is not to fool oneself.
[1] Numbers Rabba, 12:3.

The Environmental League of Massachusetts Action Fund today endorsed Representative Danielle Gregoire for State Reprehensive in the 4th Middlesex district, a credit to her commitment to environmental issues and her passion for public service. With critical issues of energy policy and environmental protection to be addressed in the next legislative session, the leadership of the ELM Action Fund believes it is important to return environmental champions like Representative Gregoire to the State House.
"We are proud to endorse Representative Gregoire because of her strong commitment to addressing environmental issues both in her district and across the Commonwealth," said Joe O'Brien, ELM Action Fund Political Director. "She understands the importance of our state investing in clean energy, sustainable transportation and parks to help address climate change, create jobs, and build healthier communities."
Representative Gregoire has seen firsthand the adverse impacts contaminated land can have on a community and she understands that upfront investment in environmental protection is the more cost effective approach. As a legislator, Representative Gregoire has supported efforts to increase our state's generation of renewable energy and she also supported efforts to prevent Massachusetts ratepayers from footing the bill for unneeded gas pipeline infrastructure.
Representative Gregoire was first elected to the Legislature in 2008 and in her tenure has been a leader on environmental issues. She recently earned a score of 97% on the ELM Action Fund's 2015-2016 Legislative Scorecard. Representative Gregoire is facing a general election opponent in November. For more information about her campaign, please visit his Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/danielle.gregoire.39.
The ELM Action Fund is a nonpartisan organization that helps pass laws that protect our environmental legacy, holds our elected officials accountable and works to build the political power of the environmental community. Last year the ELM Action Fund and the national League of Conservation Voters launched a new affiliation and an aggressive plan to flex the environmental community's policy muscle in Massachusetts. This fall the ELM Action Fund and the ELM Action Fund PAC have been working to educate and mobilize voters in key legislative races across the state.

Blackies Cuttie out till next spring
PORTLAND, Ore. - Blackies Cuttie will be out of action for three to four months after suffering a hairline stress fracture of her cannon bone, according to trainer Ben Root.
Blackies Cuttie, an impressive winner of her first two starts, finished third at 1-10 odds in the Janet Wineberg Stakes for Oregon-bred 2-year-old fillies on Nov. 5. She initially seemed to come out of the race without injury, but a second set of X-rays revealed the barely perceptible fracture.
"It doesn't look like much at all on the X-ray, but I'm sure it caused her enough pain to keep her from running her race," said Root. "I'm just glad we caught it, because it would have gotten worse if I had kept training her."
The trainer's father, veterinarian Jack Root, said Blackies Cuttie will require 10 days of stall rest followed by two to four weeks of light, controlled exercise before being turned out for about three months.
"The good news is that the prognosis is excellent," said Dr. Root. "They usually come back as good as new from this injury. The downside is that horses who suffer this injury have a slightly higher risk of suffering it again."
Ben Root said that Blackies Cuttie, a daughter of Cascadian who races for Larry Faist, could be ready to race again before this meeting ends on May 5. He said it is likely that she will make her next start early in next year's Emerald Downs meeting.
Invaders take on Wineberg winners
Silver Patrona, who upset Blackies Cuttie in the six-furlong Janet Wineberg, and Ex Mountain Cop, who won the Bill Wineberg by 8 1/4 lengths on the same day, will be the ones to beat in Sunday's twin six-furlong stakes offerings, the Lassie Stakes for 2-year-old fillies and the Columbia River Stakes for 2-year-old colts and geldings.
The favorites will face fresh challenges from a pair of California invaders, however. Trainer Jason Homer will saddle Stylish Snowbound for the Lassie and War on Terror for the Columbia River. Stylish Snowbound, a Washington-bred daughter of Snowbound, has finished second and third against maiden company in two starts in northern California.
"We bought her at last year's OTBA sale, so this will be a kind of homecoming for her," said Homer. "She is unusual for a Snowbound, because she has been coming from off the pace. I kind of like that, but she actually has speed. She has been breaking poorly, but she might run a different kind of race if she gets out of the gate."
War on Terror, a California-bred son of Northern Devil, graduated against $20,000 maidens in his debut at Golden Gate in September. He then ran sixth and second against $40,000 starter allowance company before being claimed out of a $12,500 race in which he finished third on Nov. 9.
"I'll be running him back pretty quickly, but it is either that or wait for several weeks to run him," said Homer. "He got in a speed duel and tired in his last race, but he came out of it well and he shipped up here without any problems. I like him a lot, and I think he will fit pretty well with the 2-year-olds we have up here."
Mare's debut was worth the wait
You never know when you will see something special in horse racing, but you wouldn't think it would be in a $4,000 maiden claiming event at Portland Meadows. That was where trainer Cindy Hoover unveiled the unstarted 5-year-old mare Barbs Last on last Sunday's card, and she looked pretty special while winning off by 13 lengths at 22-1 in 1:05.85 for 5 1/2 furlongs, a rapid time for Portland.
"I was shocked," said Hoover. "If I had known she could run like that I never would have started her for $4,000, though I doubt if anyone would want to claim an unstarted 5-year-old. She had been working a half-mile in 50 and change, so I never would have guessed she had the kind of speed she showed in her race.
"Once she opened up six lengths on the field, though, I knew they'd never catch her. She is almost 18 hands high, and she has a big old stride that really eats up the ground."
Barbs Last, a daughter of Detox and Only Mine, by Barbaric Spirit, races for breeder Don Munger. Hoover said Munger will have to decide where to run her next.
"I haven't got any idea where she will fit," said the trainer. "I'm still trying to digest her first race."
Catalog lists 260 for winter sale
Catalogs are out for the Washington Thoroughbred Breeders Association's annual winter mixed sale, which will be held in the M.J. Alhadeff Sales Pavilion on the grounds of Emerald Downs on Dec. 3, beginning at 11 a.m.
Two hundred and sixty hips have been cataloged, including 143 yearlings. The yearlings include sons and daughters of such nationally prominent sires as Black Minnaloushe, Doneraile Court, Horse Chestnut, Mutakddim, Quiet American, Royal Anthem, Stormy Atlantic, and Wagon Limit. Also offered are yearlings by such successful Northwest sires as Slewdledo, Basket Weave, He's Tops, Petersburg, Stephanotis, and Tribunal.

More Greeks want EU/IMF deal accepted than those who do not
[ATHENS] Almost half of all Greeks want Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras to accept a proposal by international lenders on a cash-for-reforms deal, while 35 per cent believe it should be rejected, an opinion poll published on Friday showed.
Athens and its creditors have been in talks for months over a deal to unlock further aid. The latest proposal by its lenders has sparked a fierce backlash within Tsipras's Syriza party, which says the deal goes against a pledge to end austerity.
The poll by Metron Analysis for the Parapolitika newspaper also found that nearly 60 per cent of Greeks support their government's hardline strategy in its negotiations with EU/IMF lenders while 35 per cent oppose it.
