Preparing for the ACCUPLACER
Whether taking the ACCUPLACER Course Placement test for the first time or retaking it, students are STRONGLY encouraged to prepare for the test as much as possible. A prepared student can see a significant increase in their test scores and may help avoid having to take extra developmental courses - saving time and money.
Information about the Next-Generation ACCUPLACER and links to study resources
A student may re-test once per test section within 12 months of the first testing date regardless of where the test was administered. (This includes placement testing completed at other Minnesota State colleges or universities.) There is no minimal wait period for a student to retest; however, there is a $10 retest fee, paid prior to testing. If a student is retesting, the testing center staff will issue the student a retest referral form to be presented to the Business Office on the day of testing.

As Celebration continued into Friday, Saturday and the Sunday finale, I started to think of the experience as Purple Summer Camp.
The first day, you run on adrenalin and excitement. This is going to be the best experience EVER. Around the halfway mark of day two, your energy flags. You look at your itinerary and all the activities you booked, and you realize you were insanely ambitious. You question whether you will survive the late nights, early mornings, crowds and nonstop activity. Maybe you need to go home. At summer camp, you'd send a whiny, plaintive postcard to your parents. At Celebration, you want to text your husband, but you can't, since Paisley Park has locked your phone in a pouch. That's a good thing, since your husband is already shouldering all of your daily family-related duties and doesn't need to hear whining from you.
Day three dawns, and you have the best day ever. You are high on the experience and never want it to end. And on the fourth and final day, you feel sadder than sad and cling to your new friends while making somewhat unrealistic promises to visit them, no matter how far-flung the location may be.
I heartily recommend the experience. Like camp, it's character-building.
In closing, I wanted to share two of the moments that will stick with me forever, like snapshots from camp.
DEAR PRINCE: I'm in line at the merchandise counter, waiting to purchase my overpriced-but-worth-it $50 Lovesexy tour shirt, which is so perfectly 1988 in color and design that I'm beside myself with joy. My other purchase is a purple notebook embossed with a gold love symbol. The cashier looks at the notebook and says, "I have one of these too. I call it my `Dear Prince' notebook." I ask her, why "Dear Prince"? "Because I write to him at night when I get home," she replies. "I write stuff to him like, `Dear Prince, I was at your house today …'"
THE RED SUIT: The only time I saw Prince in concert was the Musicology tour. Bash me all you want for not being a true fan, but I've had hearing problems all my life due to a bazillion ear infections as a baby, and avoided concerts to protect the hearing I had left. Still, I was determined that I wasn't going to go through life without seeing Prince. In 2004, when I saw Musicology, I had a two-year-old and hadn't slept through the night in two years (or so it felt). As a result, my one, singular memory of that night is Prince, standing and facing the section where I was seated, in a bright red suit. I remember telling myself, "So Laura, that's Prince."
Imagine my surprise when we walked into Studio A to find that life-size mannequins had been set up, modeling several of his Musicology costumes. On one end of the display was a mannequin wearing the red suit. Chills shot through me, and as the tour guide talked, I have to admit that I checked out mentally. I went and stood shoulder-to-shoulder with that mannequin, inches away. I imagined Prince standing on the stage in that suit, frozen forever in my memory.
That mannequin and I, we had a little chat, and I told him all the things in my heart about being able to see him that one time, wearing the red suit.

Bethlehem is a great place to celebrate Christmas. Bethlehem is a town located in Palestine. In Greek, Bethlehem means "house of bread." According to the Bible, Bethlehem is the birthplace of Jesus. Bethlehem is home for the largest Palestinian Christian communities in the Middle East. Talking about the birth of Jesus is talking about Christmas. On Christmas day, the residents of Bethlehem do many activities to celebrate Christmas. Just like the celebration of Christmas in many other countries, Christmas celebrations in Bethlehem begin with Christmas services. People from all over the world attend these. On Christmas day, there is a carnival around the church to commemorate Christmas. This carnival has a parade with Santa Claus and bagpipe bands. There are also women in traditional Palestinian clothing.
The following are various activities that can be done on Christmas at Bethlehem:
- Christmas Worship Tradition
Each Christian tradition, Catholic, Protestant, and Orthodox, has its own Christmas service. They have very different religious traditions, but their purpose remains the same, namely to interpret the meaning of the birth of Jesus. Each tradition also does services on different days, depending on what day they celebrate Christmas.
This link gives more information about the Christmas celebration done for each tradition: http://www.sacred-destinations.com/israel/bethlehem-christmas.
- Christmas Tour
Many travel agents offer Christmas tours to visit popular places, such as the Church of the Nativity, Manger Square, Church of the Holy Tomb, the garden of Gethsemane and the Sea of Galilee.
The celebration of Christmas is not complete without enjoying typical Christmas food. One dish served on Christmas in Bethlehem is turkey cooked with cinnamon, pepper, and nutmeg, and then stuffed with rice and almonds.
Traveling to Israel and Palestine? If so grab some travel insurance from one of our Team members here at Good Neighbor Insurance. Why? Because even bad things happen to good people! It is not a matter of if I need medical care while traveling overseas. But when? I rather give my international medical insurance card to a medical evacuation Team then handle them my Visa credit card. Wouldn't you? Call us at our toll free number, 866-636-9100 or here at our Arizona phone number, 480-633-9500. Or email us at .

Chapter 267 – Family Law
A group of people rushed over with excitement. Theses were all people that were imprisoned here underground after suffering unexpected attacks. They all felt as if some kind of great change happened to the sect, but none of them expected that Old Fifteen would return.
They all thought that the all-powerful Great Demonic God from back then had long died, and never would have thought that he would reappear. These were all his good brothers that fought alongside him, so their relationships were very good.
They were laughing and crying at the same time. Seeing their presumed dead brother alive again made all of their emotions go wild.
"Hahaha… Old Fifteen, everything is good as long as you are back!"
Only after a long time had passed did these people gradually calm down. They crowded around him and returned to a large hall to catch up.
Grandpa Fifteen did not hurriedly take action, because there was nothing he feared here. He was not scared of any changes, because with the nine great flags sealing up the Martial Imperial Manor, it was impossible for those people to escape.
"I want to know a few things. Where did Ziling go, and is Hao'er still alive?" Grandpa Fifteen asked with a low and unhurried voice. His brows were locked up deeply, reflecting how worried and emotional he felt. His true emotions were revealed, making him seem completely different from his previous overbearing appearance.
There was immediately a group of people who became silent, feeling sorry for Grandpa Fifteen. They knew that they didn't properly take care of his descendants.
"None of us were in the mansion that year, and so by the time we received news, it was already too late." One of them sighed.
"Blame it all on me. I didn't take good care of Hao'er." The one that blamed himself the most here was that lion-like elder who was ranked fourth among the clan elders.
Back then, he was doing everything he could to get rid of that poisonous woman and punish Shi Yi, but he was stopped by Shi Yuan and the others. They confronted each other and almost broke out into a huge internal strife.
"I want to know exactly what happened." Grandpa Fifteen sat on top of a tall and precious Flood Dragon skinned chair. At that moment, he felt extremely weary. He had already realized that things were not good, so both his heart and mind were extremely sunken.
"Hao'er was a natural born supreme being…"
When these elders explained what happened back then, Grandpa Fifteen felt his emotions stir. His own grandson actually possessed that kind of bone! His old body was comforted, and he he began to laugh loudly like a child.
"Hao'er was extremely cute, intelligent and innately talented. His eyes were large and bright, only later…"
When he heard that his own grandson was bound on top of an ice cold iron bed and had his supreme being bone bloodily gouged out, Grandpa Fifteen erupted into absolute fury. His roar was so loud that it shook the entire Stone Mansion.
The enormous palace exploded, and all the walls were blasted into ruin. Debris flew in every direction. His fury had reached its peak, making him feel stifled and wronged to the absolute extreme. Who was he? This was the grand and magnificent Great Demonic God, and his grandson was a natural born supreme being, yet there were actually people who dared to do such a thing!
He could just imagine how much bitterness that child suffered from this bloody crime. He could visualize his helpless pleas, desperately begging with his large eyes as he called for his close ones. However, that aunt was completely heartless.
"My Hao'er, you suffered…" Tears unexpectedly appeared within the Great Demonic God's eyes. He was always strong and domineering when facing enemies, dealing with them mercilessly.
However, at this moment, he couldn't help but shed tears. They rolled down his face as he clenched his fists. His heart was feeling a ridiculous amount of pain and bitterness.
That child was so small, yet he suffered such great bitterness. He said to himself, "Grandpa has let you down. Why did these things have to happen back then?"
"Old Fifteen, don't blame yourself. The reason you left home back then was to find pure blood for Hao'er, and you even risked your life in the process! If he knew, he would definitely be happy."
Grandpa Fifteen couldn't help but go crazy, roaring towards the skies loudly. His entire head of hair flew upwards and danced chaotically, making him look like a demonic god.
"To dare treat my grandson like this, do you think there is no one left in my bloodline?!" Grandpa Fifteen was beyond furious. He truly wanted to return to that time. If he could travel through time-space, he would definitely have unleashed a massacre within that underground palace.
In the distance, Shi Li, who was hiding within the palace hall, went pale as his body shook uncontrollably. Back then, he truly involved himself too deeply, siding completely with Shi Yi and his mother.
Within the main hall, the clansmen continued to narrate the various events that happened back then. This time, the old man held himself back and did not shout out in anger and grief. He quietly listened to everything.
However, the others noticed that his eyes became increasingly colder. The cold light was incredibly frightening like that of a vicious beast, making all of them feel intimidated.
Grandpa Fifteen's anger had almost exploded his lungs. His natural born supreme being grandson was actually harmed like this, and not even his life was guaranteed. When he heard that his grandson's memory became fuzzy, that the clever and lovable child became unable to recognize the people around him, and that his eyes became lifeless, he felt as if a knife was stabbed into his heart and was being twisted about.
"What a pitiful child, my pitiful Hao'er!" In the end, he still couldn't hold it all in and roared towards the sky. He walked out from the palace in large steps towards a stone mountain.
With a wenglong sound, Grandpa Fifteen reached out with a large hand formed from countless symbols. It engulfed everything in front of him, shaking the great earth as it smashed down towards the underground palace.
"Ah… No!" Shi Li shouted loudly. He was in absolute dismay. Hiding himself seemed to have been completely futile, because he was discovered so quickly.
He was scared. Before, he wanted to wait for powerful assistance, but it seems like there's not enough time now.
Grandpa Fifteen suppressed him all the way from the distance and grabbed him in one go. His voice was cold. "Do you still have any Death Substitution Talismans left? I'll wait until you've used your fill!"
"No, no more. I only had that one!" Shi Li shouted loudly.
Grandpa Fifteen lashed out with his palm. Shi Li's mouthful of teeth all fell out, bringing blood with them as they flew out. Moreover, his lower jaw was smashed with a kacha sound.
His entire body was sent flying from that one slap to the face, colliding into a small mountain in the distance. Smoke and dust rose as rubble rolled around everywhere; it was truly a miserable sight.
He kept shouting with wuwu sounds, and his eyes were filled with dismay. Back then, he dared to fight with Shi Ziling using his age superiority. However, with the Great Demonic God in front of him, he didn't even dare to struggle.
It was because he knew that it would all be futile. If they truly fought, then he would be killed immediately. He wouldn't have even a slight chance.
No one who knew better than him how terrifying Grandpa Fifteen was. Even the archaic Rainbow Luan King was shot dead with one or two of his arrows.
"My Hao'er ah… You are so pitiful!" The old man howled with grief. Even someone as firm and strong as him had tears in his eyes.
He kicked over, embedding Shi Li deep within the mountain. Blood splattered everywhere, and miserable ah ah sounds continued to sound in succession. His expression contained incomparable pain, and half his body seemed to have been turned into mush.
This was the result of Grandpa Fifteen not immediately taking away his life. Otherwise, the moment they made contact would have been enough to turn him into a bloody paste.
"Keep talking then." Grandpa Fifteen calmed down his state of mind and told the group of elder brothers to continue their recount of that year's events. His heart was full of grief and indignation.
Shi Li's heart immediately sank even further. The Great Demonic God was using him to calm his mind! This was more miserable than dying immediately.
if he was the opposing sides' blood-related uncle, then there might be a chance of mercy, sparing his life. However, they weren't even of the same bloodline, so there was definitely not going to be a good result.
After hearing everything, Grandpa Fifteen's heart was even dripping blood. His chest undulated violently, hurting for his grandson. He wanted to smash through the blue dome of heaven and return to that period of time to change everything.
Finally, he heard that after Shi Ziling returned, he caused havoc within the Martial Imperial Manor. Only after hearing that Shi Ziling's golden spear directly impaled the poisonous women to death did he release a breath.
Ultimately, Shi Ziling and his wife were forced to travel far away after fighting with the clan's experts. They left with the weak and dying infant that had lost his supreme being bone, never to be heard from since.
Hot tears poured down from Grandpa Fifteen's eyes. Such a wonderful family was broken up just like this; no one knew if they were still alive, and their whereabouts were completely unknown. He truly wanted to go berserk.
At that moment, the Great Demonic God bellowed towards the heavens. He now knew about everything that had happened, and he simply couldn't endure it any longer. Like a wounded beast, he roared out. Tears trickled down his face as his hair danced chaotically in the air.
He went mad, and there was no one who could stop him now. Like a demon king that had thrown off all shackles and restrictions from hell itself, he walked towards the distance. With every step, the great earth would split open. The cracks were wide, extending far into the distance.
There really was nothing that could stop him. Even if a building lied before his feet, it would shatter and be crushed into pieces.
Grandpa Fifteen went insane. He was actually crying loudly! How could a demonic god like him cry? It had never happened before in the past, yet today, he couldn't hold it in at all.
The child was still so young, and was originally going to be a natural born supreme being. However, his bone was gouged out with blood splattering everywhere and grafted into another child's body. This was truly too cruel and tragic towards the former.
"My pitiful Hao'er… Grandpa will bring back justice. I want to see who can stop me!" Grandpa Fifteen's great roar shook all directions and travelled beyond the mansion walls. This was not only directed towards those within the mansion, but also a message informing the entire capital of his return!
The Great Demonic God did not fear anyone. Because something happened to him back then, everyone thought that he had died, and only then did they dare to treat his descendants so cruelly.
Grandpa Fifteen collapsed an underground palace with a single step, as if he was stepping on a mouse. This forced Shi Yuan and the others out.
"Stop! Old Fifteen, if you have something to say, then say it properly. Don't use force!" These people all cried out loudly.
"Shut the fuck up and sit down!" The Great Demonic God erupted with violent rage and sent a palm flying over. Several people cried out miserably as their bones broke and their muscles were torn apart. They spat out blood before falling down into the dust.
Shi Yuan and the others naturally weren't going to sit and wait for death, quickly fighting back. The number of people here weren't few, and they were all experts from the same bloodline or those that were closely related. Symbols filled the skies as they rushed over, and all types of killing formations were activated.
However, it was all pointless. After thirteen years had passed, the Great Demonic God had become even more terrifying, and his cultivation had advanced at an incredible pace. With a loud roar, many people immediately exploded into piece on the spot.
This kind of scene, and this kind of bloody slaughter was enough to stun every person here. It was just too powerful.
The loud roar was like the fury of a god. It immediately shook the majority of experts here to pieces.
"Do you think there was no one left from my bloodline?!" Grandpa Fifteen went crazy. Who could stop him?
"Old Fifteen, don't kill us! Ziling and the others aren't dead yet, and Hao'er should still be alive as well. Don't you want to know where they are? Stay your hand!" Shi Yuan was frightened badly. Even though he was a sect elder and possessed great authority, he was still shaking from head to toe. He couldn't stop trembling as he used all of his strength to shout loudly.
These words finally made the Great Demonic God stop in his tracks. He restrained his fury and calmed down before sweeping his ice cold gaze over them.
"Old Fifteen, don't kill them and just capture them for now. You should take a breather first." From behind him, those old brothers of his shouted.
It was because even they were starting to become terrified. Once Grandpa Fifteen went mad, no one could stop him. They were scared that he would really flatten the Martial Imperial Palace and slaughter everyone until not even a single blade of grass could grow and not even a chicken or dog would remain.
"Fine!" The Great Demonic God only said this one word.
Following that, all of the Martial Imperial Manor's people were gathered. Grandpa Fifteen personally pressed his palm into the void and caused a Golden Winged Peng to appear. It suppressed the heaven and earth, subduing everyone from Shi Yi's bloodline.
As for Shi Li, the first one he dealt with, the Great Demonic God sent out a foot to first ruin his cultivation. He then kicked him into that crowd.
Grandpa Fifteen sat on top of a tall and lofty chair. Sadness and pain was reflected on his face, and only after remaining silent for a long time did he say, "I am not an unreasonable person. Today, I am going to let you guys explain yourselves."
Everyone's minds immediately loosened and released their pent up breaths. They began to secretly rejoice, because Grandpa Fifteen finally returned to normal, no longer going mad.
After a moment of quietness Grandpa Fifteen's coldly and merciless spoke. "Stone Clan prohibits all internal strife. If there is a violation, then they should all be killed executed without exception. Today, I am going to carry out the family's law!"
Once these words were spoken, all of these people immediately became fearful. Their hearts immediately froze, as they faces showed absolute horror. What did this mean? They were all going to die here with no chance of surviving!
"Old Fifteen, you can't act like this. The family law is not meant for you to carry out, but rather something to be decided by the Martial King once he comes out!" Shi Yuan shouted loudly.
With a single finger, Shi Yi's great-grandfather released a miserable shout. With a pu sound, blood blossomed, and to his dismay, his body's cultivation was ruined.
Grandpa Fifteen did not immediately kill him either, but instead coldly stared at everyone. "Do any of you think that I am not fit to carry out the family's law?"
Everyone was terrified, and none of them dared to utter a single word.
When he stood up, he truly seemed like a supreme demonic god as he looked down on everyone. Even though he only had a single arm remaining, he still seemed incomparably heroic. It was absolutely intimidating.
"Old Fifteen, even if we've erred, we still have to wait for the Martial King's decision." Finally, another clan elder spoke.
"Martial King? From what I can see, his mind is muddled as well. After so many years have passed, he still did not properly deal with this matter. Leaving things like this is unjust. He has grown old!" The Great Demonic God coldly spoke.
Everyone began to tremble. Who was the Martial King? He was someone who dared to fight against the human emperor for the title of emperor when he was young. He was powerful enough to make this entire ancient country shake in fear.
"You aren't allowed to act so rudely. You cannot treat the Martial King with disrespect!" One of the clan elders shouted.
"Why can't I? I will carry out the family's law on you first!" The Great Demonic God lifted his hand, and with a weng sound, his palm turned into a large golden millstone. It smashed into that sect elder's body, and with a pa sound, he exploded on the spot, turning into a bloody mist.
These actions were merciless, carried out with lightning-fast speed, deeply affecting every person here. Grandpa Fifteen once again opened his mouth and said, "If the Martial King is muddled-headed and no longer wants that position, then he can be disposed of!"

In my first blog post in this series, I introduced you to a smart, entrepreneurial company and a product that helped turn their great idea into reality. It's what happened when The Giggling Pig got together with Pitney Bowes and their new offering called SendPro® online shipping and mailing solution.
The Giggling Pig is a well-known, burgeoning small business with two retail locations in CT. Hannah Perry, Founder & CEO, told me that she started the company because of her desire to do something great with her passion for art.
"I have always loved working with children, and art is such a fantastic way for them to express their creativity and imagination. Our stores and merchandise are a hit with customers, both children and adults, because it gives them the creative outlet they want and need in life."Hannah Perry, Founder & CEO of The Giggling Pig
While her two studio locations are booming with on-site activity, Perry has been slow to activate the e-commerce aspect of her business being at a loss for how to efficiently process the orders and ship them out in a timely fashion. Last month the company, with access to SendPro®, was able to launch "Art Box" which allows customers to order and send the Giggling Pig's painting program to anyone anywhere. In the first month they have shipped almost 40 Art Boxes to children and families in a dozen states around the country – as far south as Florida and as far west as Arizona. Perry and her team are receiving lots of emails and photos from happy artists. "It is a good feeling to know that we have given families a reason to spend time together, creating and making memories."
According to Perry, SendPro has been a godsend for the company. "I don't know how we managed to ship and mail before we got SendPro. It's truly amazing that we can get online or phone orders from customers and have the Art Boxes ready to go out the door within a few minutes. It has saved us so much time AND we're saving money too with the shipping discounts that we get by using SendPro."
Pitney Bowes recently launched a special SendPro offer to small business owners like The Giggling Pig to help make mailing and shipping easier by being able to print stamps right from your desktop for $5/month, businesses get:
- Compare pricing and send overnights and packages with three major carriers from a single online application.
- No additional equipment needed - use your own computer and printer.
- It comes with a free 10 lbs. scale
- By signing up for the Pitney Bowes flexible payment option you get $15 in postage after you print 3 shipping labels within the first 30 days.
- Get the first 3 months free when you sign up and cancel any time
For more information on the offer and to watch a video on how SendPro can help your business, click here.
Next up in our series with Pitney Bowes and The Giggling Pig is a special small business event taking place at one of their retail locations later this month. I will post more information online about that event as well as more tips and advice to help you grow your business. If you want to join the discussion, you can follow me, @brianmoran, and @Pitney Bowes on Twitter and the Pitney Bowes Facebook page to follow Hannah's story.


text: Hi, As you have correctly guessed, hardware vertex buffers are supported in wined3d. The comment is somewhat outdated - it predates support for opengl vertex buffer objects. If you want to implement this method, I recommend doing it this way: 1) Write some tests. See how VertexBuffer::Optimize works together with VertexBuffer::Lock, and if the D3DVBCAPS_OPTIMIZED flag is visible in GetVertexBufferDesc. 2) Add a IWineD3DVertexBuffer::Optimize method to IWineD3DVertexBuffer and call it from IDirect3DVertexBuffer::Optimize 3) The optimization is what IWineD3DVertexBuffer::PreLoad does. The code for that already exists, but it is usually disabled for D3D7 vertex buffers because in d3d7 only the whole vertex buffer can be locked, and not a subrange. This makes the color conversions, etc. inefficient with d3d7. So VertexBuffer::Optimize would probably just set the flag to signal that PreLoad should create a VBO for this vertex buffer the next time it is called, and set the OPTIMIZED flag to mark the buffer unlockable(If that is what the tests written in step (1) show).

my approach to event photography
My Approach to Event Photography
Event photography is one of my favorite disciplines. My approach to photographing events is the same as my approach to street photography. All photographers have to obey the laws of light. Aside from that, the message of our work is only limited by our own creativity.
I like event and street photography because it forces me outside of my comfort zone. Taking pictures of strangers can be intimidating. Taking quality pictures of strangers is challenging because you have to focus on making a proper exposure while composing your subject.
Your concentration can't be broken just because they look at you and your cover is blown! And you certainly can't scamper away and pretend like you weren't just trying to make a photograph with them in it!
Event photography will make you a more confident photographer. Confidence will never trump quality but it does go a long way in establishing your credibility. Before people know the quality of your work it can only help that you look the part of a professional.
Photographing the 2017 Croaker Festival
How to capture the essence of an event
Once you're comfortable photographing strangers the next challenge you'll face as an event photographer is capturing the essence of the event. "Essence" is one of those ambiguous words that doesn't tell you much but we all know it when we see it. Of course this varies from person to person but there will typically be an "essence" that even the masses can agree on.
Because I'm the web developer for the Croaker Festival I had a much better idea of its "essence" and how I wanted to capture it with photographs. The heart and soul of the festival is community. Without community the Croaker Festival wouldn't be the same.
I set out with a general idea of what I wanted to capture, the parade, the vendors, the entertainers, the venue as whole and the people that make up the event. I otherwise approached the day with a clear head and a clean slate.
The Parade
The Croaker Festival parade embraces the community spirit. Each participant is passionate about their position in the lineup. From an event photographer's perspective all entries are not created equal. Shooting what is intensely personal for a single person doesn't convey the essence of the event.
This is when you have to ask yourself over and over again, "What's the essence of this event and how is it personified in the parade?"
For a 4th of July parade the answer is easier because anything celebrating our freedom embraces the essence of the event. I like to focus on our service members because they're the ones who made the ultimate sacrifice, laying their lives on the line so I can have the luxury of pursuing the craft of my choice.
I try to think not only about the essence of the event and the parade but how to capture the service members in a way that does their service justice. By getting low to the ground and shooting up I'm able to make their presence feel that much more commanding.
Longer focal length lenses compress the image and make the background appear closer to the viewer. Understanding how to use this image distortion to your advantage affords many creative opportunities during a parade. In this image of the Marine Corps Marching Band I'm shooting at 100mm on a 1.6x crop factor camera body for an effective focal length of 160mm. I use the inherent compression to create a stacked symmetry created by the perfect formation of the band.
In reality the length of the band is much greater than it appears but the compression of the image captures the essence I was after, that of perfect timing and precise execution.
The Vendors
When I walked around the vendor area with Channel 14 News anchor Jessi O'Neal I realized that the vendors and their products were not capturing my attention. Even once we found a suitable vendor to interview I was still searching for the answer to my question of, "What is it about this scene you want to capture and convey?"
After lunch Julie and I returned to the information booth to say hello to my Mom who was manning the station from 1-3pm. Our friend and daughter to Mayor Sally Belangia, Amber Belangia, bumped into us at the booth. While we were talking it occurred to me what I wanted to capture in the vendor area.
It's not everyday you get to rep your products beneath a beautiful grove Oak Trees.
The People
Click here to see more images of people from the festival.
Ah yes, the people, my favorite part of event photography. How we choose to capture the people says a lot about the event and a lot about us too. I follow several street photographers on Instagram and have purchased a couple of books by famous street photographers. Each individual presents a clear image of how they see the world. This is where my work is the most genuine. Nearly all my personal favorites are candid portraits of people being people.
The Performers
Click Here to see more images from the show.
This isn't really street photography because you're working with a captive subject and they are well aware that you're photographing them. Even the crowd is well aware of your presence so the element of surprise is usually lost.
The challenge of photographing performers is maintaining authenticity. When I photograph performers I watch them first and try to observe their unique mannerisms. Each member of the Masters of Soul and a well defined and unique attribute. I focused on that and waited for the right opportunity.
To ensure I don't miss the right opportunity I pick a single member and focus on them through the viewfinder. I frame the composition roughly the way I want it and then I select the corresponding autofocus point.
Then I wait, camera at my eye, for the precise moment I want to capture. Using the continuous shutter mode can be helpful for fast moving subjects but I typically shoot a single exposure.
The Venue
The ability to capture aerial images makes the task of photographing the venue much easier. Just because you have an eye in the sky doesn't mean you're free from the laws of light and composition! Sure, any aerial image is inherently cool because of its departure from the normal perspective.
Combine the inherent with great light and composition and you'll create some memorable images that'll set your work apart from others.
The Fireworks
This was my first time photographing fireworks. I admittedly had no idea what I was doing so I did what I normally do in situations like this, ask Google some questions! I read a handful of blog posts about "how to photograph fireworks" and set out to capture the show.
After one failed exposure I promptly scrapped all that I'd read and fell back on experience. The blog posts didn't help me because my subject matter was not just the exploding fireworks. In fact, the fireworks were actually secondary to my main subject which ended up being the two young girls sitting in the foreground watching the show.
My intention was to capture the whole of the scene which would include the bridge, the harbor and the boats in the anchorage. I wanted to have something interesting in the foreground but I wasn't exactly sure what. I was reasonably confident to achieve this I would need to use the widest lens in my kit which is 10mm for an effective focal length of 16mm on a 1.6x crop sensor body.
When the two girls sat below me I knew I had my foreground subject. To me the essence of a fireworks show is the awe and wonderment demonstrated by the viewer.
Have a plan and be ready to abandon it. Know what you want to capture and rely on your skillset. That's how you can become a better event photographer.
Putting it all together
My style of event photography is more akin to street photography. I approach these shoots by focusing on the essence of the event and asking myself how does that essence manifest itself visually.
Keep a plan in your head about what you want to capture then be prepared to abandon that plan and fall back on your skills and experience. It's important to be able to react and respond quickly.
You'll only get one chance to capture many of those classic moments that truly define what that "essence" really is.

Inside the Meter
Some GOP health care pledges moot; we delete them
As we finish rating the 2010 campaign promises made by House Republicans on our GOP Pledge-O-Meter, we've determined that a few of them don't fall anywhere along our scale of Promise Broken to Promise Kept.
Some health care pledges made by Republicans were conditional upon repealing the Affordable Care Act, commonly known as Obamacare. House GOP members opposed the law but liked some provisions and promised to enact legislation keeping them in effect. They were:
• Ensuring access to insurance coverage for people with pre-existing conditions
• Expanding state high-risk pools and reducing the cost of health coverage
• Eliminating annual and lifetime spending caps by insurance companies
• Giving states incentives to develop innovative programs that lower premiums and reduce the number of uninsured Americans
The House voted nearly three dozen times to repeal Obamacare, to no avail. We've rated the repeal effort aPromise Broken. And because of that law, patients with pre-existing conditions can get insurance, and annual spending caps by insurance companies are a thing of the past.
So what to do with these GOP pledges that are effectively moot? We've decided to simply delete them from our database. But fear not, scorekeepers! All these promises were Not Yet Rated, so deleting them doesn't affect the GOP's success record on the Pledge-O-Meter. And if you're curious to know more about the individual promises, check the Obameter's section on health care. Each one is addressed there.

Michelle - posted on 01/21/2010 ( 233 moms have responded )
My little one, Emma, still only has 2 teeth - the bottom front ones. She got both of these around August last year (9 months) and I'm wondering if I should be worried that she hasn't got any more yet? The past month or so she has been drooling non-stop and has had a runny nose for around 3 weeks so may be there are more on the way, but I really thought she would have had more by now? I would really be interested in hearing how many teeth your 14 month old's have.

TOKYO, Oct 16 (Reuters) - Japan's pro-casino lawmakers have agreed to consider setting limits on Japanese nationals' entry to casinos, bowing to pressure from opponents who threatened to block a legalisation bill unless it addressed issues such as gambling addiction.
Japan's parliament is expected in the coming weeks to discuss legislation that would be an essential first step to unlock a gaming market some analysts say will be worth tens of billions of dollars a year.
The revision would boost chances that the bill will be passed this year as proponents hope, although it is not yet clear whether enough anti-casino lawmakers will be persuaded to provide the support it needs in both houses of parliament.
"The government, for the purpose of preventing the negative effects of casino facilities by non-foreign visitors, will take necessary measures regarding admittance and capacity...," said the amended section to the bill, a draft of which was shown to reporters on Thursday.
The revision would avoid banning Japanese entry outright and limiting casinos to foreign tourists, pro-casino lawmakers said. Some Japanese media reports said such a ban might be adopted to ensure passage of the bill.
Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has said casino resorts would help the economy by boosting tourism. But market researchers say Japan's 128 million people would likely account for a majority of casino revenues and casino operators have said foreigner-only resorts could struggle to make a profit.
"From our standpoint, I will say that we will not be interested in Japan or any other country on a foreigners-only basis. We can't do that. Our business model won't allow it," Sheldon Adelson, CEO of the world's largest casino operator Las Vegas Sands Corp, told analysts on a conference call on Wednesday.
Hiroyuki Hosoda, chairman of the pro-casino lawmakers' alliance, said the revision was in response to concerns over gambling addiction and money laundering. Such worries should not hold up the current bill, he said.
A second bill, set to be drafted next year if the current bill passes by year-end, would address specifics including possible entry fees or conditions for entry by locals, Hosoda said.
He told reporters the current priority was to set in motion the legalisation process for a casino industry, stressing its importance to Japan's economy.
"With the manufacturing sector weakened, it's time for the Japanese to aim for economic growth through tourism," he said.
Abe has said he hopes casinos will be legalised in time for the 2020 Olympic Games. Analysts have said any delays in legislation will make that difficult. (Reporting by Ritsuko Ando; Editing by Edmund Klamann)

The state of Utah has requested a temporary restraining order (TRO) with freeze of assets against Bailey Nolan Hall—owner of National Fitness Financial Systems—and a gym he owns, Performax.
National Fitness is the third-party billing company that multiple club owners allege failed to pay them the membership dues that the company collected for the club owners. In a February story, Club Industry spoke with several health club owners who said the Layton, Utah–based company intermittently paid them the membership dues before the payments stopped altogether. The lack of payments caused several of them to fall into personal debt, they said.
The court has yet to rule on the asset freeze request, which does not include a freeze of assets for National Fitness. The asset freeze request was filed in Second Judicial District Court Davis County on August 11 by the Utah Attorney General's Office Commercial Enforcement Division. The filing came after Hall filed for Chapter 13 bankruptcy on July 27. The Chapter 13 request was dismissed on Aug. 16 because Hall had not paid the filing fees.
Daniel Burton, director of communications and government records in the office of the Utah Attorney General, said he does not know when the court might issue a ruling on the request.
An asset freeze prevents defendants "from dissipating their assets from beyond the jurisdiction of a court so as to frustrate a potential judgment," according to Wikipedia.
Chapter 13 allows an individual or company to stay in business while restructuring debt.
As for what this means for club owners to whom National Fitness still owes money: "So far, National Fitness is not restrained from paying gym owners according to outstanding contracts," Burton said.
The TRO request from the Utah attorney general stems from the June 24 closure of Performax gym in Clearfield, Utah. The gym closed without notice after being evicted by its landlord. Performax owes approximately $429,922 in unpaid rent, according to the filing.
The order accuses Hall of violating the Utah Consumer Sales Practices Act and the Health Spa Services Protection Act. The filing states that "Performax and other entities controlled by Bailey Hall continue to bill Utah consumers for services, and to initiate collection efforts. Performax's website continues to offer gym memberships for sale without informing consumers of its closure; Performax has been evicted from the property and a creditor is in the process of repossessing its gym equipment. Despite the Division's attempt to obtain records from Defendants, they have not provided important documents to the Division."
The TRO is meant to protect members' legal right to restitution, the filing states. The attorney general had received 198 consumer complaints about Performax memberships as of the date of the filing. Many of them complain they are still being billed for membership dues, personal training and semi-annual membership fees. The attorney general's office notes in the filing that the gym may have between 1,500 and 3,000 members.
The filing said that Performax has made about $85,273 per month from billing that occurred after the gym closed.
On June 28, the AG served subpoenas on Performax, Hall and National Fitness Financial commanding that the entities hand over membership records no later than July 30, but none of the entities did so by that date. On July 27, the AG sent a cease and desist letter to Performax and Hall. As of the date of the TRO filing, the attorney general had not received a response from Hall. July 27 is also the date Hall filed for Chapter 13.
Due to the lack of response by the entities, the attorney general "is concerned and suspects that the Defendants are removing, concealing, or disposing of their assets to the detriment of consumers," the filing states.
Burton was not aware of any criminal charges or any other pending cases against Hall.
Utah Chapter 13 trustee Lon Jenkins, who had been assigned by the court as bankruptcy trustee in the Hall case, was out of town and did not respond to a request for further comments last week. Club Industry was unable to reach Hall for comment.
Several club owners contacted Club Industry after the initial story was published in February and after Club Industry posted a blog earlier this month asking for comments from club owners about National Fitness.
Of the health club owners who have contacted Club Industry about National Fitness, the amounts owed to the owners ranged from $9,000 to $500,000.
One health club owner said he has not received payments from National Fitness since December 2015, and when he tried to contact the company in early August, he found that the phone lines had been disconnected.
One owner said that her family's franchisees "have had to take severe losses in dues and payments, not to mention some of the clubs not being able to receive their data (memberships, billing, etc.) to bring to another billing company."

The first step is to choose the floor plan. It is the most important step because you can choose the right size of the rugs. How do you want to plan your floor? If you have sofas and chairs up against the wall, you should choose a rug with large size because it should fit under the front legs of all chairs and sofas. If you want your sofas and chairs on the rugs, you should choose the larger size of the rugs because you don't want any part of your chairs to be out of the rugs.
The next step is to choose the material of the rugs. There are many choices of rugs available such as dhurries, natural, tufted, or overdryed rugs. Choose the material which suitable the most with your house condition. If your family member has any allergic to the material, don't choose that material.
The next step is to choose the pattern. Get a pattern that suitable the most with your furniture in your room. There are some models to be considered. They are the solid color pattern, which is almost suitable with all kinds of room condition, playful patterns, which are good to use if you like to play with the combination of pattern. And the versatile neutral, which can be said as the semi pattern model.
The final step is to consider the price. You must do some online research before you buy it at the store. Get the estimation of the price and compare the online price with the price at your local store. Buy the lowest price and set it in you house.Moroccan West Elm RugsWest Elm Lattice Modern Area RugsWest Elm Jute Rugs RunnersWest Elm Taupe And White Tribal Rugs.

EXCLUSIVE: Tory Youth National Chairman 'Blocked' at CF Reception.
As an early CF election campaign takes hold and rifts publicly emerge, tbg can sensationally reveal that Conservative Future (CF) National Chairman Oliver Cooper was allegedly blocked at this year CF reception, with the two national executive deputies taking control.
One anonymous source told tbg - "Sarah-Jane Sewell and Robert Manning took full control of the CF reception here at conference and blocked Cooper by not letting in the people they didn't know or like. Instead they brought their own friends without tickets."
Influential CF'er Dominic McDonough told tbg - "I couldn't get in. CF young professionals reception was a success though thanks to Ollie and Liam Fox."

It was very clear that SJS and Manning were blocking people, the event was half empty with lots being turned away. SJS stopped Charlotte Argyle at the entrance as where other very well known CF'ers

Both events were crap, with the same awful rah rah CFers at both, a bunch of students pretending to be "young professionals."
I dobt like Coopef, but he was in fact going round speaking to each group at the event and introducing Chris Grayling to everyone. The fact that he was awful at it and no one wants to talk to him is a different issue!

Cooper had to talk at an event on the other side of town and got back as soon as he could. Besides SJ and Manning are on the exec so they should be helping out, hardly saving the event when they are just doing what they were elected to do.

In years past during cold weather months, we've held our worship services in Colgate Hall, due to the high cost of heating our large sanctuary. Now, due to generous anonymous donations and the hard work of our members and staff, the chapel has been winterized and is ready for regular use for the first time in decades. Come join us this Sunday at 9:30am!

Greta Garbo. Ingrid Bergman. Alfred Nobel. August Strindberg. If you know these names, then you may already know a little something about historic Stockholm, Sweden.
Stockholm and Swedish-American immigration and culture have always been intertwined closely because so many Swedes emigrated to America from places like Gothenburg and Stockholm, the Swedish capital.
By about the 1900 era from which SweAme seeks to document American Swedish families, beautiful Stockholm was the only place in the world that had more Swedish inhabitants than Chicago, America's largest-population Swedish City.
Stockholm connections for your family?
Chances are that some of your Swedish relatives, even those who grew up in rural areas of Sweden, lived there at one time before leaving for the United States. Have you checked Stockholm's Roteman database that features population records from 1878 to 1926? You can at least get some background and a start here, putting in as much information as you know about your Swedish ancestors.
Stockholm cultural highlights
Since Stockholm has served as the capital of Sweden since 1436, the island city that still houses Swedish royalty has influenced all of Swedish culture in various ways. That means that it affected Swedish-American folkways of our ancestors, too. It is a highly walkable and clean city, and is noted for the venue of the ceremonies connected to prizes established by Alfred Nobel in 1901. You can visit the Nobel Museum.
Here, in steep Old Town (Gamla Stan), by walking in the footsteps of generations of Swedes back to the 13th century, you can begin to feel the essence of Swedishness. There is much beauty in the well-preserved churches, and many of the buildings are originals from hundreds of years ago when our ancestors lived in Sweden.
It was to Stockholm that many of our ancestors fled when times got hard in the countryside. There they learned dressmaking, tailoring, railroading, glass making, and some of them even became indentured servants as they left Sweden to pursue farming in the citrus industry in Florida. Because of similarities between Stockholm and San Francisco and New York City, many Swedes emigrated to California and New York in addition to Chicago, enriching our cities.
Our Swedish history for urban and rural Swedes in Stockholm
If you're interested in Swedish culture and art, you will be able to see the art and culture enjoyed by your ancestors at close to 100 museums in Stockholm. And if your ancestors were seagoing Swedes, as many were, you can see the Vasa Museum there in particular. It is described as the museum with the most visitors in all of Scandinavia.
If your family's Swedes hailed from the rambling countryside, though, you can see the kinds of homes they lived in and what their daily life was like by visiting Skansen – the oldest open-air museum in the world.
As we expand and enhance the family trees at SweAme, we may remember with pride that it was only 18 years after the Mayflower arrived that the first documented Swedes came from Stockholm to set up a Swedish colony in Delaware. In many ways right from the beginning, Stockholm and America have always been one. As Swedish statesman Dag Hammarskjold said about the importance of taking chances, "Never look down to test the ground before taking your next step; only he who keeps his eye fixed on the far horizon will find the right road."

GA678 - Charlie
Charlie was our first spotted dolphin rehabilitation and release. He was found buried in sand by a cleaning crew who dug a large hole filled with water to place him in as instructed by the TMMSN until the rescue team could arrive. He was named in honor of the Texas National Guard unit Charlie from La Marque that set up a protective tent around the pool for Charlie and his volunteers. Charlie was a strong and aggressive feeder and enjoyed speed swimming and surfing in his own wake in the rehabilitation pool! Calling on the luck of the Irish, he was released on St. Patrick's Day.
Charlie was released off Freeport, Texas on March 17, 1995. Charlie was outfitted with a satellite tag mounted on his dorsal fin. The tag was attached with dissolving bolts and had enough battery power to last six weeks. After a certain length of time, the bolts would dissolve and the satellite tag would fall off. Satellite data was received from Charlie through April 10, 1995. The map below shows approximate positions for Charlie on various dates. It appears that Charlie had no real difficulty in getting around post-release.

Being pregnant or in the process of trying to conceive, means you have a million and one things to learn and take care of. Pregnancy involves practically every single aspect of your life. All the information involved in pregnancy can be very overwhelming. Here are some tips to help you have a happier and healthier pregnancy.
If you don't feel like accepting social invitations when you're pregnant, don't. Your family and friends will sympathize with your special needs. You may not have expected to feel as tired and nauseated as you have been, or envisaged how frequently you have to go to the bathroom. Do not force yourself to do anything you are not up to.
Before you attempt to get pregnant, visit your doctor. He or she can tell you about what changes you should make to have a healthy pregnancy. Learning to get your body ready for pregnancy can ensure a healthy and safe experience.
Regular dental visits and daily oral hygiene are important during pregnancy. Being pregnant can actually cause you to develop dental problems, such as gingivitis. Always brush your teeth at least twice per day, and don't forget to floss and use mouthwash. See your dentist right away if you notice any irregularities or problems.
Even before you conceive, you should take prenatal vitamins. The first trimester is the time when your fetus develops the beginnings of its spinal cord and brain, which is called the neural cord. Making sure that you are getting sufficient levels of calcium, folic acid and iron is critical through all stages of your journey, from conception to delivery.
It is not necessary to learn every last thing immediately. Remember, it's not a race; your pregnancy will more than likely span all of nine months. Learn as you go, accumulating the necessary information as you need it. You can begin by using the advice from this article and learning little things at a time. Most importantly, stay calm and allow yourself all the enjoyment and wonder that pregnancy can offer!

Money, Money Everywhere – this past weekend proved to be a huge success for the release of both Venom and A Star is Born.
First off, Venom managed to smash not only all expectations set for the movie, but also the October opening weekend record. The previous record holder for the month of October was the 2013 film Gravity $55.7 Million, and Venom surpasses that record by near $25 Million! Box office records are almost never beat that badly. And Venom wasn't the only success this past weekend.
A Star is Born was a small, low budget movie, that was being projected by most experts to make only around $25-30 Million this weekend. And It surpassed all expectations by brining in $41.3 Million. This is all due to the positive word of mouth surrounding the project – with many predicting the movie to receive many academy award nominations come Oscar season.
Check out the full box office numbers below!
No 1. Venom – $80,030,000 in its first weekend of release.
No 2. A Star is Born (2018) – $41,250,000 in its first weekend of release.
No 3. Smallfoot – $14,900,000. Bringing its total gross in its 2nd weekend to $42,760,945.
No 4. Night School – $12,275,000. Bringing its total gross in its 2nd weekend to $46,750,355.
No 5. The House With A Clock In Its Walls – $7,295,000. Bringing its total gross in its 3rd weekend to $55,050,560.

Procurement and supply staff are among the hardest working professionals, according to a study by recruiter Robert Walters.
The company's Career Lifestyle Survey 2014 found buyers are "most prone" to taking work home or working on their days off.
The study of 755 professionals found 41 per cent of those working in procurement and supply chain regularly work overtime, on a majority of weekdays. This is significantly more than in IT (23 per cent), financial services (30 per cent) or accountancy (34 per cent), said Robert Walters.
More than four in 10 buyers take work home or go into the office at the weekend. The same applies to only a fifth of those in marketing, 31 per cent in HR and 34 per cent in legal, according to the research.
"As a result of this, the vast majority – 90 per cent – feel their work contributes directly to the success of the business," the study said.
It also revealed procurement and supply chain workers' main reasons for leaving a job are often non-financial. "Three in 10 procurement and supply chain specialists would seek a new role for lack of career progression opportunities or an unsupportive boss, with poor company culture contributing to 23 per cent of departures," said Robert Walters. "Only 13 per cent would leave because of a disappointing salary review."
More than half of buyers rank work-life balance or interest in the work as "very important", the report added.
James Franklin, manager of procurement and supply chain recruitment at Robert Walters, said: "Longer working hours reflect the increased importance of supply chain and procurement functions to the wider business, particularly in sectors where cost-cutting and efficiency measures continue to set the agenda. A widespread trend for working later into the evening or at weekends is also stark testament to the commitment and work ethic of those that the profession typically attracts."

The best thing you can do after being injured at work is to learn about your rights. At English Lloyd & Armenta, we will meet with you for free and explain your rights to you. There are important steps you must take after a workplace injury to secure your workers' comp claim, make sure you know what to do.
Located in Rancho Mirage, our lawyers have been representing injured workers throughout the Coachella Valley for more than 30 years. We will help you maximize your workers' compensation benefits.
Steps To Take After A Workplace Injury
Below is a general guide explaining the actions you should take after being injured on the job. However, it is always best to meet with an attorney upfront to ensure your rights are protected.
Report Your Injury To A Supervisor
After a job injury, tell your supervisor right away. He or she will help you start the formal workers' compensation process. If you don't tell him or her, you may risk losing your right to benefits.
Take Note Of Witnesses
If other workers saw the accident, get their names and contact information. They may be able to act as witnesses for you later down the road.
Fill Out A Claim Form
To request workers' compensation benefits, you must complete a claim form and submit it to your employer.
Get It In Writing
If your employer is not cooperating, make sure to document your injury in writing — either by emailing your employer, complaining of the injury to a doctor, or by writing a letter, email or text to your supervisor explaining how you got hurt.
See A Doctor
After you file a claim, you will be contacted by your employer's insurance carrier. It will send you to a doctor for an evaluation. After the first visit, you can select any doctor you want — as long as he or she is in the insurer's medical provider network (MPN). Make sure you choose a doctor you trust, one who will listen to you and take your injuries seriously. Your medical benefits and lost wage benefits depend on it.
Act Quickly
Insurance companies will often move slowly — they do this purposefully. Workers' comp temporary disability benefits typically only last for 104 weeks, the slower the insurance company moves, the faster it eats up that benefit, and as a direct result, you will have less flexibility later to make important decisions. Don't let this happen to you. Stay on top of your claim.
Contact Us
If your employer refuses to cooperate, insurance companies are dragging their feet, or your benefits are denied, contact an experienced lawyer. We know the "rules of the game" and won't let you be taken advantage of.
For help obtaining workers' comp benefits or more information about your rights, contact us at 760-895-1580. Consultations are completely free. Se habla español.

How do I set-up reverse proxying with a Ruby Rack app?
Are there any good link/resources deploying a Rack app(Not rails!).
So far I have the Rack app set-up with the folders and such but I have been having LOTS of trouble with the nginx part so I uninstalled and decided to try again.
Maybe someone here give me a good dumbed-down version to do this task?
Thanks in advance
