Depart early in the morning to Chichicastenango, the largest and most colorful handicrafts market in the Americas. Every Thursday and Sunday, Mayan people from all over Guatemala meet to sell their products and visit the town's Catholic Church, Santo Tomas, to pray in their own way, becoming the best example of syncretism of the Maya and Catholic traditions.
Breakfast and lunch included
An interesting geological formation, Atitlan is a lake of volcanic origin, located at 5,000 feet above sea level, surrounded by three imposing volcanoes and in the heart of the Living Maya culture. You will take a boat tour to visit San Juan La Laguna, a town famous for naïf paintings and women's fair trade textile cooperatives that preserve natural dyes and textile traditions. Afternoon at your leisure to enjoy the hotel gardens or the lively main street in Panajachel town.Breakfast included

Breakfast included
We will drive south just 20 miles to the Pacaya Volcano National Park to climb a real active volcano with lava flows and an occasional trembling underfoot. After the hike, we will visit a natural hot spring and spa, with a massage included prior to your Guatemala Airport transfer for your flight to Flores/Tikal.
Breakfast and lunch included
You will visit Tikal accompanied by an expert Mayan guide and explore the magnificent achievements of these fascinating ancient people. At its height, Tikal was home to over 100,000 Mayans and was a cultural and political center. It becomes easy to imagine life in the city as you explore temples, plazas, multi leveled palaces, ball courts and living areas. Howler and Spider monkeys and coatamundi are commonly seen, while the elusive jaguar and ocelot are known to survive in this protected rainforest reserve as well. Almost 300 species of birds have been identified in Tikal including toucans, motmots, trogons and many different parrots. In the afternoon transfer to the Ixpanpajul Park where you will hike the Sky Way that brings you above the canopy using hanging bridges. At the end of the day, transfer to the airport for your flight to Guatemala City and transfer to hotel.

Albert A. Canfield, Ph.D.
The Learning Styles Inventory (LSI) makes it easier to determine which learning environments and which instructors are best for particular students. In both academic settings and industrial training programs, the LSI may improve student or trainee performance and reduce dropout rates.
Designed for junior high, high school and college students as well as adults, the LSI is a self-report inventory that measures learning preferences. It is composed of 30 items that give you four kinds of information:
- Preferred Conditions for Learning: Does the student like teamwork, independent study, competition, classroom discipline, organised coursework, a close relationship with the instructor, or detailed information on assignments and requirements?
- Areas of Interest: Does the student like to work with numbers, language, things or people?
- Mode of Learning: Does the student prefer to obtain new information through listening, reading, interpreting illustrations, graphs or through hands-on experience?
- Expectation for Course Grade: How well does the student expect to perform in the class?
LSI scores are used to classify the student into one of nine learner types. This Learner Typology allows you to identify groups of students who have similar learning styles.
The LSI may be completed in just 15-20 minutes. Students may easily score their own tests and classify themselves on the Learner Typology grid. This saves you time and also gives students immediate feedback.
Standardised on more than 2,500 individuals, the LSI is available in four forms. Form A uses college norms; Form B, high school norms; and Form C, junior high school norms. These three forms all have a 7th-grade reading level. Form E is an easy-to-read edition, with college norms and a 4th-grade reading level.
In counselling centres, classrooms, and industrial training programs, the LSI is used to adapt instructional strategies to learner needs, to design alternative curricula, to help individuals select courses or work environments compatible with their learning styles and to help reduce dropout rates.

A Federal High Court in Enugu has sentenced two drug traffickers, Okafor Chidinma and Iheme Onyemauchechukwu, to forty and fifteen years in prison, respectively, for drug trafficking.
The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), stated this in a statement signed by its spokesperson, Ofoyeju Mitchell, obtained by the Street Journal on Tuesday morning.
It said the trial judge, Justice D.V. Agishi, sentenced the two convicts who were arrested at the Akanu Ibiam International Airport in Enugu after finding them guilty of the crime filed against them as charged.
Chidinma, a female professional dancer, was charged for conspiracy, trafficking and unlawful possession of 3.450kg of amphetamine, while Onyemauchechukwu, a male, was charged with trafficking and unlawful importation of 9.975kg of heroin.
Chidinma, it said, was convicted as charged and sentenced to 10 years each in count one and count two, and 20 years in count three, making it a total of 40 years.
Onyemauchechukwu was charged with trafficking and unlawful importation of 9.975kg of heroin and was convicted as charged and sentenced to ten years in count one and a fine of N1million naira and five years in count two with a fine of N500,000.
"While this punishment is expected to correct the convicts, it will equally help to deter others from getting involved in drug trafficking.
"The Agency commits huge resources in drug investigation, arrests and prosecution; judgment like this will further lend credence to the nation's anti-drug campaign," the statement quoted NDLEA Chairman, Ahmadu Giade, as saying.

Time: 11:30 pm
Location: Comm. Street signal (seems to be a jinxfully eventful place for me)
I'm on my bike w/family. Cops doing their drunken-driving-check routine. I was clean, so didn't have much to worry about. One cop stops us, comes near. Of course he doesn't have the breathalyzer. Gets kissing distance to my face, and asks
My bravado of having nothing to fear turns to adventuresome. Mustering up all of the 3 and a half Kannada words I have learnt, I decide to give it a shot. And utter one of them.
Cop sniffs; grins a bit, shakes his head, and walks away.
I immediately realize what I just said. And ride away without telling the wife what (really) happened.
Kannada speaking readers have got it. For the rest, here's what it is.
In Hindi, the word for "No" and "Don't want" is effectively the same - "Nahi"
XYZ liya? Nahi.
XYZ chahiye? Nahi.
Same with Gujarati. "Na" does it both.
Kannada, however is more like Marathi
'No' is 'Illa' and 'Don't want' is 'Beda'
Just like 'Naahi' and 'Nako' in Marathi.
Now, when I (try to) speak a few words of Kannada, I always try to overlap what I know with a language I really know. The decrypting language I used to use was Hindi. Since that night, I changed it to Marathi.

Summer-Run Steelhead
With moderate river flows, bug hatches, and warm water conditions, summer-run steelhead will take a dry fly readily. Almost all of the water works best fished upstream using floating lines and dry flies, then with a second pass, on your way down with a wet fly or nymph. Sight fishing is a possibility on certain rivers. There are "fly fish only" rivers for the fly fisherman to enjoy, while searching for summer steel.

Commuter Towns in Catchment Areas of Outstanding Schools
Winkworth's guide to the towns within commuting distances of London with schools that have attained Outstanding status
The lengths parents go to enable their children to get into the best schools was revealed recently when Santander bank discovered that a quarter of all parents in the UK had bought or rented a property just to be within the catchment areas of good schools.
The bank also found that parents are prepared to pay on average 11% or £27,707 more to buy a home within a school's catchment area, while 17% had changed jobs to make the move and 20% had downsized. Nearly a quarter said they had stretched their finances to do it.
Within London the figures are, unsurprisingly, higher – with the additional premium parents need to pay to get into their desired catchment area reaching£71,539. But for many parents a better option is to move out of London to a commuter town where the local schools and property market offer more choice.
One of the increasingly popular areas for London leavers is Grantham in Lincolnshire, where Director Adam Lascelles says 80% of the properties he sells are to people from outside the town.
"It's only a 65-minute commute into London and that, combined with the excellent grammar schools here makes Grantham hugely popular with Londoners," he says. "People can buy comparable houses here with the equity left over from their London homes and, although our grammar schools don't have official catchment areas, there can be a premium to live near to them."
If you're thinking about making a similar move, here is our guide to the towns within commuting distances of London with schools that have attained Outstanding status.

So here it is… My final post of 2016.
I won't get too sappy as to how my 2016 went, if you've seen my latest video [here] you might have a bit of an idea – but that's a topic we will divulge in another day. I will say this though… 2016 showed me how incredible and cruel the world can be, almost simultaneously. So much of this year was a learning experience, I mean when aren't we learning, right? Life is such a twisted, beautiful mess and I'm grateful for the strength I've been filled with through the mistakes I now call lessons.
This month I had my family join me in Toronto for Christmas which was the absolute best gift I could've asked for. My brother had never been to the city so it was amazing to show him around and con him into taking all my photos hehehe. We took these shots when we stumbled upon this location by accident and they've become some of my favourite photos to date. Plus, I'm wearing literally one of my favourite pieces I own, this Haute Hippie embellished cape that weighs a good five pounds and I wish I could wear everyday. I hope you enjoy all these photos and be sure to follow my insta for more daily snaps!
| WEARING | H&M Silk Camisole. Skaist Taylor Velvet Flare Pants. Haute Hippie Embellished Capette. Zara Neck Tie. Vintage Handbag + Rings. F21 Hoops. Steve Madden Boots. ABH 'Crush' Liquid Lipstick.
Before I sign off I have to extend a huge huge HUGE thank you to all my beautiful supporters who read my blog, watch my YouTube content and tune into my random snap stories. You guys are my reason to get up everyday and create, which is my favourite thing in this world. You've given me an outlet to truly embrace who I am as an individual and I will never be able to articulate how much you all mean to me. I know it all sounds cliche but I love you all so much, you're part of me – you are my family.

Hi all, and sorry for the delayed posting! Here are some thoughts on data, epistemology, power, and Baudrillard to spice up your Saturday morning.
Reading Hamish Robertson and Joanne Travaglia on the connections between the "data revolution," which swept 19th-Century Europe as the agencies of a newly centralized and bureaucratized state set out to better understand and control rapidly expanding urban populations, and our own crisis of "big data," I felt like I had found the response to Baudrillard I had been looking for. What I most appreciate in this piece is the fact that, while certainly critical of the ideological functions of contemporary big data discourses, Robertson and Travaglia resist the urge to simply jettison the phenomenon altogether, excising it from the province – even the possibility – of meaning. Rather, taking a more historiographic approach than Baudriallard (whose main historical reference seems to be his own now-revised opinions on the meaningful/less-ness of mediated images), they give themselves space to sit for a moment with the weird politicalities of big data, thinking carefully about 1) what 'big data' actually represents or allows us to access, and 2) the specific institutional formations (the disciplin-ification of the contemporary university, the sponsorship of the state, etc.) that helped it to take shape.
Where Baudrillard was emphatic in his belief that representational technologies like opinion polling represent absolutely nothing – that they are properly the objects of simulation, rather than of meaning; objects that narrow the field of agency and resistance to ironic subversion and mocking laughter – Robertson and Travaglia rightly note that, even if big data do not represent what we think they do, they nonetheless represent something, and this something is certainly something worthy of our consideration: "That a census or a social survey is a snapshot of the way our societies are regulated is rarely remarked on and instead emphasis is given to the presumed objectivity of the categories and their data. This is the ideology of the small data era in action – the claim that it is science and not society that we are seeing through such instruments." In other words, even if the referent of population data is not the population itself, we are still dealing with reference and meaning; we are glimpsing not a population in its totality, but the various ways in which that population is defined, managed, and governed.
For those of us concerned with the contentious social and cultural topographies of data – say, those of us in this class – this is something I don't think we can afford to overlook. Our data collection activities might not, in the end, tell us that much about the objects we want to study, but they do offer an important opportunity to glimpse the ways in which we as researchers imagine our objects, or more precisely, how we imagine them to be accessible and available within the parameters of academic knowledge production; to reflect on how we attempt to locate ourselves within (and potentially without) the conditions of our scholarly formation. These are questions of epistemology, about knowability. Quite appropriate, then, that Robertson and Travaglia seek appeal to Luciano Floridi: "Floridi writing on the philosophy of big data, has said quite specifically that the real big data problem we face today is less one of the quantity or quality of data or even technical skills but rather one of epistemology." If, as Robertson and Travaglia note, "a great deal of social data is coercive in nature" – or at least ensconced within the particular ways of knowing we inherit from 19th-Century European social science, and thus intimately bound up with the pathologization, governance, and in many cases eradication of certain populations – I think it behooves us to aspire to more than Baudriallard's mocking laughter when confronted with the massive and admittedly overheated discourse of big data. We need to find where our data sets touch the world, and consider what that touching might tell us about the politics of knowing, even and especially when it "fails" to represent the world.

Map and Directions
By train: From the Central Station S.M. Novella (300 meters away = 5 minutes walking). Standing in the station with your back to the train tracks, go out the right hand exit (the exit with steps going down to the street). Once on the street, turn right again going along Via Alamanni. Go straight on and when you reach the traffic light, cross the street. At this point you will find yourself in Via Guido Monaco. Go straight along this street walking on the sidewalk on the right side (side with even street numbers) for about 50 meters and then turn into the first road on the right (on the same walkside): this is Via Peri. The first main door on the right (number 2) is the entrance to Soggiorno Primavera.
By Car:Follow the street signs indicating 'Centro'/'Stazione S.M. Novella'/'Fortezza da Basso' (exhibit hall). Drive along the wide avenue (called 'I Viali') until you get to Viale Belfiore. Just after the traffic light, turn left into Via Guido Monaco (going toward the station). Just after this, turn again into the first road on the left (Via Cittadella), then turn right into Via delle Ghiacciaie and then right again into Via Peri. At Via Peri no. 2 you will find the entrance to Soggiorno Primavera.
By plane: the airport, A. Vespucci in Florence, has a shuttle bus to the S.M. Novella station, which leaves every half hour.

I have an old MacBook Pro that I am replacing with a slightly less old MBP. Both are running Lion 10.7.2. (The older MBP has some hardware issues.)
The first MBP has a lot of music, video, application preferences, and symbolic links that I need to make sure get over to the second MBP, so that I can just swap the machines and, for the most part, be done with the swap.
The catch is that second MBP has a much smaller hard drive, so I can't simply copy over the Users folder, let alone run Carbon Copy Cloner, etc.
What is the best way to clone selected folders, which ensures that hidden files, symbolic links, files with special permissions, etc. are recursively included?

Sorry but this item is currently unavailable.
Please check back at a later stage.
The Tabernacle Furniture Set contains 1:10 scale models with relevant pieces electroplated in gold. The set provides a helpful visual when teaching on the tabernacle. Each item is carefully designed according to the guidelines laid out in Scripture to give you an accurate tool to help in your teaching. As the word "glory" carries with it a concept of weightiness, each article in this set has physical weight, helping reinforce the concept of God's glory. This set comes in a sturdy and padded carrying case. This set is included in the Worldview Rethink Gold Kit.
Use the Tabernacle Furniture Set to help bring clarity and understanding to the significance of the tabernacle articles.
The overall instructions for constructing the ark are quite specific with the exception of the cherubim. The details of this model are kept simple but elegant. This is an item that can be left on your desk or mantel as a conversation starter. Once you have someone interested in the ark, you can give them a copy of "The Stranger" or "By This Name."
Ark of the Covenant Dimensions (18.4 cm x 24.0 cm x 10.5 cm. 7.2" x 9.4" x 4.1")
The altar of incense is also known as the golden altar. One advantage to 3-dimensional visual aids is that they can be handled. All of these pieces are quite robust and should last for years.
Altar of Incense Dimensions (5.8 cm x 5.1 cm x 10.4 cm. 2.3" x 2" x 4.1")
Though its shape is known, the Bible does not give the size of the menorah. However, when the Roman General Titus destroyed the Jewish temple, an arch was made in Rome to commemorate his victory. It shows the plundered furniture. The menorah in this set was design based on a careful study of that monument.
Lampstand Dimensions (10.2 cm x 6 cm x 13.5 cm. 4" x 2.4" x 5.3")
It is not known how the bread was placed. The loaves are provided as shown, but can be changed.
Table of Showbread Dimensions (8.9 cm x 6.4 cm x 8.4 cm. 3.5" x 2.5" x 3.3")
People are often surprised at the size of this altar. It was quite large in comparison to the other pieces. There is debate as to whether the grate was inside the altar across the middle or down along the lower side. This set accommodates both views, with the inside grate being removable. Both interpretations can be taught.
Bronze Altar Dimensions (25.4 cm x 25.4 cm x 15.2 cm. 10" x 10" x 6")
Other than the fact that it was some sort of water container and had a base, there are no dimensions given for this piece of furniture. This one was sized based on the fact that it had to be carried.
Laver Dimensions (3.3 cm x 3.3 cm x 7.62 cm. 1.3" x 1.3" x 3")
The Bible tells us that these items were placed in the ark of the covenant.

This set is expensive but I think worth the money. It made a huge positive difference in my teaching of high school students.
The quality is tremendous and will last for years.
I ordered from the U.S. It took approximately 8 days to arrive.

We work amongst a remote people group in the Philippines. Translating the book of Exodus was very difficult but having the Tabernacle furniture and the tabernacle model was a tremendous help. My language helpers were able to describe what they were seeing and holding with their own hands. The look on their faces when they first saw the pieces was priceless! I'm sure we could have translated Exodus without these tools but having them made it so MUCH easier. We highly recommend these tools to anyone translating or teaching on the tabernacle.

We have a plastic model of the tabernacle which we thought had great quality. When we received the tabernacle furniture set we were more than pleased with the quality and craftsmanship of each item. It is well made, sturdy and makes for a great presentation. People are visually pleased and impressed with the quality of the furniture and it only prepares the stage for telling the story of the suffering of Jesus, his death and demonstrating visually the implication of the "veil being torn in two". It has provided us with a clean visual of what Jesus completed on the cross when explaining the how we now can boldly approach the throne of grace!
Thanks Goodseed for taking the time to invest in this valuable tool to bring clarity to the Word.

Dear Goodseed,
I just received the tabernacle furniture in the mail and am overwhelmed with its quality. This set of furniture truly is magnificent and goes beyond all that I could have hoped for. I like to collect different objects from around the world, but this one, by far, is now my most prized collectors piece. It is stunning and will be a great tool for teaching the children and the adults in my congregation (it also looks good in my office). I would also say that you get far more than you pay for. I have no idea how such a quality item could be sold at such a low price.
God bless you in the work he has called you to,

I have the whole set of furniture pieces from Good Seed and really appreciate it. It is a quality representation of the what was used by Israel. I have used it in many meetings, as the visual aids are invaluable in presenting the lessons. Thanks for a job well-done.

Since SQL Server "Denali" is not likely to be called SQL Server 2011, I'm a little nervous that when the true name is released the questions tagged sql-server-2011 will get lost in the shuffle. I've tried to casually encourage use of a more generic tag sql-server-denali but in almost all cases they end up getting re-tagged back to the former by other users. What I'd like to propose is the tag sql-server-denali for now, which - along with denali and sql-server-2011 - will later become a synonym for, most likely, sql-server-2012.
For more background on this request, please see SQL Server 2011 vs. SQL Server Denali

How To Protect Your Home Computer From Internet Outlaws
This is our baker's dozen of mostly free and low-cost steps to protect your home computers and networks from Internet outlaws.
For an introduction to Internet security for home and SOHO end users, see our Overview page. For this week's top Internet security and privacy topics, see our Newsletter page. If you are willing to do a complete "clean install", take a look at our Installation page.
#1 Use Firewall Software. If you do not already have third-party firewall software installed, turn on the built-in Windows XP, Vista or 7 firewall until you do. Cost = Free.
#2 Use Open DNS. Go to OpenDNS and sign up for their free basic or family account, turn on the security filters [enable basic malware/botnet protection, enable phishing protection, block internal IP addresses], set up web content filtering [there are 26 options], and also consider using the advanced settings. Cost = Free.
#3 Backup Your Data. Check to see if your Internet Service Provider (ISP) offers online storage [included in their regular charges], consider a free online storage service like Mozy Home Free, use an external USB flash drive or hard disk, or burn a CD/DVD. Cost = Varies [no or low-cost for a few GB's].
#4 Use Broadband. If you have dial-up ISP service, consider upgrading to broadband [DSL, cable, etc.] to allow for much faster downloads of security patches and updates. Cost = Varies [AT&T DSL Basic is $20 per month].
#5 Update Software. Malware (virus, Trojan, worm, etc.) loves out-of-date software. Run Windows/Microsoft update on the second Tuesday of each month to download and install all critical updates. For other software, run a scan with the Securia Software Inspector and use their links to download critical security updates. Revisiting Secunia's Personal Software Inspector, Krebs on Security, September 8, 2010. Cost = Free.
#6 Upgrade Windows. If you are still using Windows XP, consider an upgrade to Windows 7 if feasible with your computer (run the upgrade advisor to see). Microsoft support for XP/SP2 ended in July 2010. Be sure to set up a password protected user account for each person that will be using the computer and turn off the guest account. Cost = $100+ [home upgrade].
#7 Upgrade Browser. Start by checking your current browser with Qualys Browser Check. If you are still using Internet Explorer 6 or 7 or any other out-of-date browser, upgrade to IE8 or Firefox 3 or Chrome 5. The newest browsers are much more secure. Whichever browser you use, make sure to take advantage of any security features that are built-in and also consider using available add-ons like NoScript or Adblock Plus for Firefox or try IE7Pro for Internet Explorer 8. Anyone still using Internet Explorer 6 needs to upgrade ASAP because of ongoing attack issues. Google Chrome now has add-on extensions too. For Internet Explorer 8, try going step-by-step with "What is involved in the Advanced Security settings in IE and how best to configure each one." Derek Melber, Window Security, January 27, 2010. Cost = Free.
#8 Protect Your Email. If your ISP offers email spam and/or antivirus filtering, use these features. If your email software offers spam and/or antivirus filtering, turn on these features. If your Internet security software includes spam and/or antivirus filtering, use these features. If no to all the foregoing, consider an online email service [gmail, hotmail and yahoo mail all include spam and virus filters] and/or use anti-spam and antivirus utility software like SpamFighter. Cost = Free [mostly].
#9 Use a Password Manager. How many different passwords do you use? How many websites do you use them for? Too many of us use too few passwords for too many websites. And the passwords we use are weak ones. The cure is a password manager which is free and highly recommended. Try LastPass or Roboform [the free version is limited to ten passwords after 30 day trial]. They are available for Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome and in 32-bit and 64-bit versions. Use a built-in password generator to create and store passwords that are impossible to remember and that are much harder for outlaws to successfully attack. You only need to remember one master password (one master to rule them all... <:). Do not use sticky notes or your browser to save your pass words. Cost = Free.
#10 Use Free Internet Service Provider (ISP) Services. Consider using the security and privacy services that may be offered by your ISP at no additional cost (free) or at a discount. Comcast, for example, offers all of the following:
Security Suite -- Free PC Magazine editor's choice Norton 360 Security Suite for up to 7 home computers (Comcast also has a Macintosh version),
Parental Controls -- Free Norton Online Family,
Email -- Free spam and virus filtering,
Online Backup --Two GB free, and
Browser Toolbar -- Free Comcast Internet browser toolbar that includes anti-spyware and anti-phishing features.
#11 Use Free Internet Security Software. If your ISP does not offer Internet security software, you do not like the products they do offer, or there are features missing that you want, you can use free individual software products. Cost = Free.
Firewalls -- Try Agnitum Outpost Firewall, Checkpoint ZoneAlarm Firewall, Comodo Firewall Pro, PC Tools Firewall Plus, Privacyware PrivateFirewall, Sunbelt Personal Firewall, or Tall Emu Online Armor. For links and reviews, go to our Firewall page.
Antivirus -- Try avast! Free Antivirus, AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition, Avira AntiVir Personal, Microsoft Security Essentials [MSE], or Panda Cloud Antivirus [PC Magazine editor's choice]. For links and reviews, go to our Antivirus page. Consumer Reports recommends Avira and MSE.
Password Managers -- Try LastPass or Roboform [free version limited to ten passwords after 30 day trial].
Internet Security Suites -- Free suites are not recommended. For pay suites, see our Internet Security Suites Software page.
#12 Use Firewall Hardware. Everyone, even a single user without a home network, should use a low-cost wireless, wired or gateway router between their modem and their computer or network. These routers will make your computer(s) less visible and more secure on the Internet using their NAT and SPI firewall features. If you use a wireless router, be sure to set up its security features; see How to Secure Your Wireless Home Network, wikiHow. Cost = $50+ [depends on features].
#13 Be Smart. In "How much security software do you really need?" Ian "Gizmo" Richards, Windows Secrets Newsletter • Issue 245 • 2010-05-27 [Paid Version] advocates for changing your behavior as a first step followed by using free security software. Cost = Free [make donation].

In Reply to: Right as the mail posted by Adrian Barker on July 16, 2008 at 19:01:
: Hello there, love the website!
: What does or where does the phrase "right as the mail" come from? I heard it from a movie called Tombstone when Val Kilmer collapsed in a bar drunk... you know the one?
I've heard "right as rain" (see below). Maybe right as the mail also means correct, consistent, on time.
RIGHT AS RAIN - "Definitely correct; just the way it should be. It could just as well be 'right as clouds' or any number of other things, but 'rain' it is, doubtless because of the allure of alliteration. The expression has had heavy work since the late 19th century, but an example from 1909 (in Max Beerbohm's 'Yet Again') has the virtue of offerin two cliches in one sentence: 'He looked.'fit as a fiddle', or 'right as rain'.'" From "The Dictionary of Cliches" by James Rogers (Ballantine Books, New York, 1985).

I'm attempting the conversion from Eclipse PDT to Netbeans PHP, and so far I'm really impressed. What would make things perfect is being able to open up a file structure in the standard windows explorer.
Say I want to copy in a data file I've just tweaked in another app, or downloaded from a remote server, I have to navigate manually to the folder structure that I already have open in the IDE.
It's just about the only thing from Eclipse that I miss in Netbeans. Any suggestions how I can reproduce the functionality?

Medicine development is changing: medicines are becoming more complex, they are being developed for more specific patient populations and we are also targeting rarer diseases.
To deliver the medicines of tomorrow, it is crucial that everyone involved in medicine development – patients, academics, the National Health Service, regulators and industry – work together to make it more efficient.
Our new 'innovation in medicine' infographic illustrates the many areas where the ABPI Research, Medical and Innovation Department works with partners to improve the efficiency of medicine development. Ultimately, our aim is to ensure patients have access to new medicines when they need them.

One of my friends makes fun of me for dressing Henry like this when we're at the pool. But it's a whole lot easier than chasing him down and trying to get sunscreen on him every hour or so. And he doesn't complain.

Starting a company is easy. Relatively.
Putting on a show is hard. Definitely.
Doing both of these things is an exciting test of endurance and passion.
To start a theatre company you need patience, endurance, copious amounts of self belief and a whole lot of passion.
Patience, because it takes time. You will hit hurdles and red tape and need to fill out a LOT of applications asking for money. Unless you're rich. Then you can do whatever you like.
Endurance, because (as above) you will need to stick this process out. You will need to keep reminding yourself of the big picture and push through the endless hours of planning and set up required. You want to succeed? You have to pass this test first.
Self belief is key. At every turn, someone will say "why are you doing this?" Or worse "Don't do this, we don't need it in this town". If you don't believe in what you are doing, they will stop you in your tracks. The self doubt will creep in and tear you down. If you really believe you have something to give, then give it. If you have to start fresh in order to give it, then do it. Sometimes it takes an outsider to change things. Sometimes it takes an insider to shut things down.
Passion is paramount. If you don't love the theatre, the late nights, the tears and the stress and the rehearsals, then don't even think about starting a theatre company. But, if the thought of bringing someone's story to life on stage fills you with excitement, if you love spending endless hours in a rehearsal room, if you love nothing more than that silent moment between the audience hush and the curtain opening, if sharing your expertise with other passionate people fills you with joy, then push through the doubt. Start that company and share your passion with the world.
There's simply no such thing as too much theatre.

Canadalend.com, the Country's Leading Private Mortgage Professionals, Weighs In On Bank of Canada Keeping Its Key Lending Rate at 0.75%
Toronto, Canada (PRWEB), March 18, 2015 – Canadalend.com , the leading low-cost, private mortgage solution provider in Canada, is commenting on the recent Bank of Canada decision to keep its key lending rate at 0.75%. Canadalend.com is also weighing in on the impact it will have on first-time home buyers.
The Bank of Canada announced recently that it was keeping its rate at 0.75%, saying no further cuts or increases were necessary. The central bank surprised investors in January when it cut its lending rate from one percent, where it had been pegged since September 2010, to 0.75%. The bank said the cut came as a result of slumping oil prices and slower economic growth. (Source: "Bank of Canada maintains overnight rate target at 3/4 per cent," Bank of Canada web site, March 4, 2015; www.bankofcanada.ca/2015/03/fad-press-release-2015-03-04/.)
"The Bank of Canada said further cuts were unlikely as the Canadian economy is expected to gain steam in the second half of the year. At the same time, there is no indication that the bank will be raising rates, which drives up borrowing costs, any time soon, either," says Bob Aggarwal, president of Canadalend.com. "This is especially encouraging for first-time home buyers as we head into the busy spring home buying season."
Aggarwal explains that historically, prime interest rates rise and fall in conjunction with the Bank of Canada's lending rate. Those with a fixed mortgage will not be impacted by any moves by the central bank because their interest rates are locked in; however, Canadians with variable mortgage rates, which constitute roughly 25% of mortgages, are impacted by changes in prime interest rates.
"In an effort to attract new clients, Canada's lending institutions could offer discounts off of prime interest rates. Banks see this as a better option because lowering the overall prime rate would give existing customers a break," he adds. "Right now, first-time home buyers can find five-year variable mortgage rates for as low as 1.95%, which is 0.90 off from the prime. Five-year fixed mortgages are available from 2.44% up to 4.79%."
"Whether it's a fixed or variable mortgage, there are wide variances when it comes to interest rates. And there's also more to consider when getting a mortgage than just those rates," Aggarwal concludes. "At Canadalend.com, our independent, licensed agents help those looking to get onto the property ladder find the best rates and financial products for their financial and lifestyle needs. And best of all, because Canadalend.com is independent, our agents have access to hundreds of different lenders."
Canadalend.com is one of the largest, most trusted private mortgage brokers in Canada, with skilled, independent, licensed professionals helping Canadians coast-to-coast. Canadalend.com provides its clients with residential and commercial mortgages, home equity credit, debt consolidation, and assistance with financing concerns.

I thought I would share a few of the recipes I made tonight for our little at home New Years Eve party.
First up one of our Holiday staple munchies.
Crispex Spicy Party Mix ::
12 oz box Crispex cereal
2 cups KIX
2 cups pretzels -broken
1 pound can cashews
2/3 cup oil
½ tsp garlic powder
3/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1 ½ tsp chili powder
1 pkg. Hidden Valley Ranch dry mix (original buttermilk mix)
Mix cereal, pretzels, cashews in roaster : mix oil etc. together pour over cereal mixture. Stir well. Bake @ 250 stirring every 15 minutes for 1 hour
Now if this doesn't become a favorite of yours I will be shocked. WE LOVE it! I always make a double batch and it always gets eaten. *** Just a note*** I have been known to add other things to this that I have in my cupboard such as cheerios, cheese nips crackers and there is a WONDERFUL cereal out there from Quaker called Crunchy Corn Bran…let me tell you, it is delicious and I ALWAYS add it to this mix! So as you can see, anything goes! So make it and munch away!
My second recipe is a brand new one for me this year. Nigella Lawson is a new favorite chef of mine. I love her carefree, express way of cooking. She is a joy to watch and beautiful inside and out too!
Here is her recipe for Roquamole ::
- 1 cup crumbled Roquefort or St. Agur
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 2 ripe avocados
- 2 tablespoons finely sliced scallions
- 1/4 cup jarred sliced pickled green jalapenos
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- 1 bag blue corn tortilla chips
Crumble or mash the blue cheese with the sour cream in a bowl. Mash in the avocados. If they are ripe, a fork should be all you need. Roughly chop the sliced jalapenos and stir them into the mixture along with the finely sliced scallions. Arrange in the center of a plate or dish, dust with paprika and surround with tortilla chips. Dive in!
I topped mine with a few more snips of scallions.
Like I said, this is a new recipe for me. And it was so fresh tasting. The Bleu cheese didn't overpower and neither did the jalapenos. Give it a try!
The last recipe is a fun, festive drink ::
Pomegranate Soda (Non-Alcoholic)
- 4 oz. Pomegranate Juice
- 2 oz. Club Soda
- 1 lime wedge
- 1 cup ice
I squeezed real pomegranate juice, you could use the bottled. And just for fun I put the pomegranate juice and the ice in a cocktail shaker. I strained it and then added the club soda and some pomegranate seeds just for fun!
Refreshing ::
I am sure you all have your own favorite festive recipes! I just thought I would pass on a few of ours! The good old standbys are great and the new ones are so fun to try!
:: Happy 2011 ::
Until next time, take care.

Bebop Spoken Here talked to saxophonist Tom Harrison about his forthcoming album and his visit to the Jazz Café this Friday (Sept. 30) as part of the David Lyttle Trio
BSH: Tom, although London based, you pop up here quite frequently. I think the first time I heard you was with DAGDA. Is it the semi-tropical weather, the beer or the friendly fan base you like about Newcastle? (Think carefully about your answer).
To be honest probably a combination of all the above! It's true, I'm certainly partial to a pint of Radgie Gadgie in the rain with good people!
BSH: Is DAGDA still gigging or have you all moved in different directions?
Dagda was a great experience with a good bunch of friends, and I'm really proud of that project. It was a great learning experience for me too, on many levels and the first really big tour I'd done as a leader. It just felt right to end the project on a high after the tour. We'd been performing all over the country for over two years at the end of the album launch tour, and I just felt a change of direction was needed. That was when I started bringing ideas together for my forthcoming CD.
BSH: I recall one gig you did up here with Jean Toussaint. He must be an inspirational guy to work with?
That gig was a lot of fun! Jean has been an inspiration and mentor to many British jazz musicians for decades, so it's a real honour to be part of that; to work with him, and learn from him too. It was great to have him on board for that tour. He gave me a lot of confidence to stay focused, keep searching for a sound (still searching!) and to be comfortable with the music I wanted to play. A lot of what the new album is about is due to Jean. It's incredible to hear him play with his own bands, his sound, and the individuality he has achieved as an improviser is just incredible. Seeing his group Roots & Herbs play the music of his mentor Art Blakey was a total joy!
BSH: Your latest disc is an Ellington themed album with Cleveland Watkiss. I've been playing my pre-release copy and I'm impressed that you've managed to retain the Ellington feel without paying lip-service. It must have been a long process to get it just right.
Thanks for saying so! Before the tour and recording, I was working toward the album for almost 3 years - studying the music, learning the repertoire, and getting to grips with the work of the incredible artists who'd performed with Ellington. Those recordings are a treasure trove of incredible music. It was a joy to study the masters Paul Gonsalves, Ben Webster, and of course the great Johnny Hodges; not just as profound contributors to the Ellington legacy, but as bandleaders in their own rights too. Working with Cleveland, Robert, David and Daniel was fantastic too. They all have such individual approaches, and each guy brought his personality to the music too. It was very exciting! I'm really looking forward to getting out there and performing the music again this season.
BSH: David Lyttle is a frequent collaborator of yours – is he the Strayhorn to your Ellington?
I work with David a lot yes, but I definitely wouldn't want to compare myself to Duke Ellington in any way whatsoever! I am very close with David and we do work together a lot on both music and business projects. I think we both like to discuss ideas and plan things out with people on the same wavelength, so it is a reciprocal thing.
BSH: In fact the David Lyttle Trio is in Newcastle this coming Friday at the Jazz Café. What can we expect?
We've been having a fantastic time on the road this week. We've been playing music from David's MOBO-nominated album 'Faces,' as well as some more unusual jazz standards. Faces was a fantastic CD that incorporated elements of soul, hip-hop and other styles as well as jazz, so it's been really interesting to play this music in a stripped-back jazz trio format. There's lots of room for interaction in the saxophone trio line-up so we're getting the opportunity to approach this music in a different way to how it was presented on the album. It's a lot of fun!
BSH: Thanks Tom, look forward to seeing you on Friday and to reviewing your album Unfolding in Tempo.
Thanks, me too!

What is the Cost of Long Term Care?
Long-term care is very expensive and living in a nursing home facility in New York can cost as much as $14,000 a month. Home Health Aides can also be costly and charge about $20 per hour of care.

Number of Bears Killed During New Jersey Black Bear Season Rises
At the close of the New Jersey black bear season, harvest numbers end up higher than expected.
The 693-pound black bear killed by New Jersey hunter Steven Polanish was the biggest bear killed during the one-week firearms bear season thus far. Yet, it was by no means the only one; at the close of New Jersey's black bear season hunters had tagged a total of 267 bruins.
While favorable weather conditions allowed hunters to harvest a large number of bears on the season's opening day (124), poor weather kept many hunters inside during the first few days of the hunt.
Larry Ragonese, a spokesman for the state Department of Environmental Protection said in an interview that, "Hunters are less likely to stay in the woods if there are uncomfortable weather conditions."
Ragonese's prediction came true, and now harvest numbers, in addition to being higher than last year (267 vs 251), are higher than the state biologists had predicted. While bad weather kept the hunt from starting fast, an uptick in permit sales later in the week, along with a growing interest from out-of-state hunters, helped the season to finish strong.
Northwestern New Jersey has the most dense black bear population in North America, according to officials, and this hunt was part of a five-year management plan designed to bring bear numbers back to a healthy and sustainable level. While the total number of bears killed has dropped (592 were taken in 2010), the state still has a way to go. David Chanda, director of the state's Division of Fish and Wildlife, said the goal was to bring the population of bears in New Jersey down to about 1,200-1,500 from the current 2,500 (prior to this year's hunt).
Opposition to the hunt has been fierce, with many protesting the baiting of bear, and many fearing that there will be no more bears left. Baiting bears, as any bear hunter can tell you, in no way guarantees success; the large population of bears is also putting undue pressure on the people living in northwestern New Jersey. While neither of these facts has stemmed the tide of criticism and opposition, the hunt, as they say, must go on.

UK-based Vodafone Group Plc's India unit and Idea, currently ranked at two and three, respectively, will have a combined base of nearly 400 million customers and 41% revenue market share. The merged entity, with its scale, size and synergies, will be a stronger rival to Reliance Jio Infocomm, which has disrupted the telecom market with back-to-back free voice and data offers between September last year and March 2017, and forced the two to combine.
"The CCI approval, within Phase 1, is a very welcome development for both the Indian M&A landscape and the telecom sector, and will serve to fuel more investment in capacity and coverage across a battling telecoms sector in the country," Shweta Shroff Chopra, partner at legal firm Shardul Amarchand Mangaldas & Co, told ET.
The merger deal will see Aditya Birla group, the promoters of Idea, gradually raising its stake in the combined entity, while UK's Vodafone Group will reduce its own, with the aim of both partners holding equal stakes over a period of time.
Under the plan submitted to Indian regulators, Vodafone will initially hold a 50% stake in the combined entity, while the Aditya Birla Group and public shareholders will hold 21.1% and 28.9%, respectively. Vodafone will then divest a 4.9% stake to the Aditya Birla Group, which would increase the latter's stake from 21.1% to 26%, thus crossing the threshold for an open offer.
Under the agreement, Vodafone will subsequently own 45.1% of the combined company after transferring a 4.9% stake to the Aditya Birla Group for Rs 3,900 crore in cash, concurrent with completion of the merger.
Sector experts welcomed the CCI clearance as a positive development for the ongoing Vodafone-Idea merger process, but cautioned that both stakeholders were yet to receive the crucial go-ahead from the Securities & Exchange Board of India (Sebi), which is examining whether the proposed merger between Vodafone India and Idea would trigger an open offer under the country's takeover rules.

ET had recently reported in its July 13 edition that Sebi had sought clarifications regarding purchases of Idea stock by Pilani Investment & Industries Corp, part of the Aditya Birla Group, ahead of an official announcement regarding merger discussions.
The takeover code stipulates that if an entity acquires 25% of a listed firm, it has to make an open offer for an additional 26% from public shareholders.
The Vodafone Group had told the London Stock Exchange on January 30 this year that it was in discussions with the Aditya Birla Group about an all-share merger of Vodafone India and Idea. Following this, the Idea stock surged 26% to Rs 97.75 from Rs 77.80. It is learnt that stock exchanges have submitted their report to Sebi in this regard.
Back in March, Vodafone and AV Birla group had announced that Kumar Birla would be chairman of the new entity. Vodafone, in turn, would name the chief financial officer while the two companies would jointly name the CEO and operations head before the closure of merger.
The new combined entity will remain listed and be renamed at a later stage. The promoters of Idea and Vodafone would have the right to nominate three members each on the board, which will have 12 directors, six of whom will be independent.

Let's talk persuasive writing, shall we? To me, this is the hardest type of writing to teach. Why? Simply put… kids aren't used to defending, convincing or using many of the verbs needed to successfully pen a truly argumentative essay. There just isn't much real life basis for them. So, to help with this… I turned to using some high… Read More
