Cadscan unveils CBT app to support positive mental health.
Cadscan has been awarded a contract as part of the SBRI Healthcare and ASHN initiative to develop interventions that support positive mental health. Under the contract, Cadscan will develop Phobot, a voice-operated conversational agent designed to deliver purpose-built cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) programmes to treat anxiety in adolescents.
Mental health crisis
An estimated 1 in 10 children aged 5-16 are likely to suffer from a diagnosable mental health disorder. Amongst the most common is anxiety, which affects 2.2% of 5-10 year olds, and 4.4% of 11-16 year olds.
NICE recommends cognitive behavioural therapy as a treatment option for anxiety in children and adolescents. However, the provision of therapy is strained by excessive demand, limited accessibility, lengthy waiting times and capital shortages. These issues are widespread and result in 150 referrals a day being turned away across the children and mental health services.
Phobot addresses these challenges by delivering a low-cost, natural and low-friction CBT interface for children with anxiety. The system will deliver an easy-to-use, engaging and responsive application that offers supportive treatment accessible at the user's convenience.

In the light of fully-released April, May and partly released June leading indicators, our estimate for the year-on-year GDP growth is 6.5 percent in the second quarter of 2018. Accordingly, seasonally and calendar day adjusted quarter-on-quarter growth rate is expected to be 1.1 percent in the second quarter of 2018 compared to previous quarter. We revised our estimate for year-on-year growth rate up by 0.5 percent points. The reason behind this surprising revision is higher-than-expected production in consumption and intermediate goods.

CAMRA Ipswich & East Suffolk branch.last updated 25/01/2020
Ipswich Fox & Houndshistorical closure era: Victorian / Edwardian
opened 1840s (mid)
closed June 13th, 1919
10 Tanners St
This was probably a later name for the Boot, in Austin Street, St Mary at the Elm civil parish. Austin Street probably became part of Tanner's Street between 1861 and 1874.
The Fox & Hounds has also been variously listed in Austin Street (St Mary at the Elm parish), at 27 Tanner's Lane (in 1865), at 37 Tanner's Lane (in 1888), at 29 Tanner's Lane (1874 & 1891) and also at 118 Tanner's Lane. The 1909 Ipswich Rate book lists it at number ten Tanner's Street.
Tanner's Lane ran roughly where the stretch of Civic Drive between Handford Road and Princes Street now runs, with Tanners Street running east to Curriers Lane.
The pub's closure date was recorded in the Borough Police licensed premises register 1903-1923 (the month is uncertain as the handwriting's not very good).
From at least 1881 to 1891 this beerhouse was run by Mrs Rachel Laughlin (nee King) who was born in Hengrave in 1825. Rachel had become a fairly young widow in 1871 and may have taken the Fox and Hounds then as her late husband, Thomas Laughlin, appears to have been a greenhouse keeper and was not recorded as a publican. In 1881 Rachel was living in the beerhouse with her sons, Edgar, (18) a hotel stableman, and William, a pork butchers assistant at the tender age of 13. They were joined by a 65 year old boarder, George Terrey. By 1891 Edgar had left and George Terrey was then recorded as being George TERRY. Rachel had died by 1901.
The 1851 entry matches the named person (Mr Green) in the Ipswich Journal report, but not the occupation.

Essential tools for Active Directory replication
Find useful resources for Active Directory administratos, with information on AD replication tools and utilities.
Active Directory is the core of a Windows 2000 domain. Without AD, most of the features, benefits and security of Windows 2000 would not be possible. The trouble is that most system administrators may be very well versed at configuring AD containers and GPOs. However, when it comes down to the wire, many don't really understand how it all works, how to improve and optimize AD, or how to troubleshoot low-level problems.
I've run across a great article that discusses one of the essential elements of Active Directory: replication. Replication is widely known to be crucial in the health and operation of a domain. But few understand what it is and what exactly gets replicated.
Six essential tools for troubleshooting AD replication is a great article by Gary Rosenfeld. This piece is published by Windows & .NET Magazine.
The article discusses what replication is, when it happens and why it is important. These are all vital items to know, no matter how little or how much you are responsible for maintaining the health of your network. Once the foundation is established, the article goes on to discuss six tools and how to use them. The six tools are event viewer, replication monitor, domain controller diagnostics, repadmin, group policy verification and directory service agent statistics.
I highly recommend this article to anyone who uses Windows 2000 in a network environment. I also stress that you can learn even more by following the additional in-text links of keywords and topics scattered throughout the article.

This year the GNU Tools Cauldron was hosted by Google at their California headquarters and the Embecosm team were there in strength. While a cauldron typically implies heat, this was in many ways very much a cool place to be: the talks were leading edge, the venue had great facilities, and the temperature was much more pleasant than back in the UK.
I'm not going to go through the entire program here — you can find the slides and links to videos on the meeting website — but I'll pick out a few items which caught my imagination.
Talks at GNU meetings come in three flavours:
- "birds of a feather" (BoF) sessions are where specialists in one area go into immense detail on their area of interest ;
- porting talks allow engineers to share their experience of getting one or more GNU tools up and running on a new architecture; and
- R&D talks explore the bleeding edge of tool development.
BoF sessions
BoF sessions tend to be seriously in-depth, and unless you are into that particular speciality and track it very closely you have little chance of understanding what the participants are discussing.
This year I found a BoF that I did understand and in which I could participate. The original developer of the DejaGnu test framework, Rob Savoye, ran a session on his plans to rewrite DejaGnu in Python, as part of his work for Linaro. The motivation for change is partly to improve the system by making it less general purpose, and to move to a newer, actively maintained language. DejaGnu was originally conceived as a library that other products could incorporate, but it has only ever been used as a testing framework, mostly, but not exclusively, for GNU tools. It is written in expect, which in turn is an extension of Tcl, which is then used for scripting.
Personally, as a heavy user of DejaGnu for tool chain testing, its most frustrating aspect is the use of Tcl for scripting. While Tcl was a great innovation when it originally came out, its ambiguity when it comes to escaping can be frustrating, and particularly when trying to write regular expressions for pattern matching, which is a core activity in test scripts. I wasn't the only one who thought this a problem and we had a lively and constructive discussion over the most appropriate language and the best way to describe pattern matching.
A strong case was made for using the GDB mi descriptions, with equally strong arguments being made against tying into such a specific interface. If you have a view, particularly on the best way to describe pattern matching — SNOBOL4 anyone? — now is the time to share them via the DejaGnu mailing list.
Talks on porting
Porting GNU tools is a large part of Embecosm's business and talks on porting are always a good opportunity to share experiences. The talks on GDB for the TI C6xxx series and GCC for PowerPC were both informative, but for me the best was Richard Earnshaw and Ramana Radhakrishnan talking about the ARM AArch64 port. The reason was not that ARM's 64-bit architecture is exciting (which it is), but their description of newlib-nano.
Newlib-nano is a re-engineering of their newlib implementation to reduce the size of the library that is linked. In particular printf can easily pull in half the library, with dependencies on all the I/O and memory allocation routines, almost invariably unnecessarily. The good news is that most of the changes are incorporated in mainline newlib, so any new port can take advantage of their changes.
R&D talks
Embecosm presented as part of the R&D talks. James Pallister described his work on measuring the impact of compiler options on energy consumption in compiled code, while Simon Cook and I gave an introduction to the MAGEEC project, which is laying the groundwork for the next generation of machine learning-enabled compilers. James has already published a number of posts here on his work on measuring energy consumption, and Simon and I will be posting in the future about work with MAGEEC.
Of the other R&D talks I was particularly impressed by David Malcolm of Red Hat talking on removing state from GCC. One of the effects of LLVM's rise to prominence has been to spur development in GCC, and in particular the long overdue move to C++. In many respects GCC is already object-oriented, but its inception pre-dated the emergence of C++ as a mainstream language. Consequently the GCC code base is littered by a vast library of macros, which add OO functionality to standard C. These represent a huge learning barrier to new participants, and are by-and-large impossible for source code debuggers to handle.
David is focusing on providing only one part of the C++ transition: the elimination of global variables. However, there are 3,500 such variables used in 100,000 places, so this is no small task! While some will be moved into global singletons (arguably keeping many of the limitations of global variables) most will be moved to become member variables of the classes with which they are associated — whether the pass manager in the back end, individual passes, or other parts of the system. A very laudable project, and one which was enthusiastically supported by the audience—perhaps to the alarm of David Malcolm, who is only too well aware of the scale of the challenge.
The future of GNU tools
In general GNU tools meetings are cheerful and friendly events, but there is always the excitement of grilling the steering committee on the final morning. This year, there was a strong theme of frustration with the FSF administration, with too many stories of delayed and lost paperwork for approval to commit. Which is something the committee can lobby hard about, but for which they are not directly responsible.
From my experience, the people at the FSF work hard, but don't always have the most effective software systems supporting them. Which is perhaps a consequence of an absolute commitment to free software, but means that in some areas they may be relying on projects that have not yet reached maturity. The solution which others have recommended, and that I myself have used in the past, is to get on the telephone and bypass the aforementioned technology!
There was strong support for a GNU Cauldron next year and we can expect it to be held in Europe or Asia.

Book of Shadows received another award nomination. This time it was Neferet (her blog, Stay for a Spell), who thought my blog was worth to receive the nomination. So, thank you Neferet, I'm very grateful.
The rules:
- Thank the person who nominated you and link back to them in your post.
- Share seven things about yourself.
- Nominate up to fifteen bloggers you admire.
- Leave a comment on each of the blogs, letting them know they have been nominated.
About me:
- I play piano (I had music lessons for seven years).
- I really love to play The Sims 3 game.
- I practice calligraphy.
- I don't like fruit (just 5 types of fruit maybe), but I like all the vegetables.
- No one knows that I'm a witch (I'm still "in the broom closet"). My friend (a classmate) and I were actually talking about witchcraft and that kind of stuff, and I was surprised when she said, "I would love to be a witch." I almost replied, "Well, I actually am a witch," but I rather didn't, because she is a big fan of Harry Potter, and she probably wouldn't understand my witchcraft.
- Sometimes, I feel like my heart isn't beating. Then I touch my chest and my neck, and I feel no pulse. Makes me sometimes wonder why (and how) am I still alive.
- From time to time I go to church with my grandmother. Not to worship the Christian God, but to hear what the priest has to say, and to see which of those things I don't agree with.
Blogs, which receive the "One Lovely Blog Award" nomination, are:
- Ayslyn's Corner
- Musings and Daydreams of a Student Witch
- It's a Wiccan Life
- Every Magical Day
- Tarot in Calgary
- The Book Gypsy
I also nominated the following blogs, which already received the award (but they absolutely deserve it!).

did you know that in the united states june has two flag days? there is june 14th, the traditional flag day and also on june 25th, there is another often overlooked flag day.
on june 25th 1978, the rainbow flag (which was designed and created by gilbert baker and jomar teng) flew for the first time in the san francisco gay freedom day parade.
according to the portal of all knowledge (pak) the original flag had eight stripes instead of the six that we most often encounter now. when baker and teng created the flag they assigned a special meaning to each color :
|hot pink: sexuality
|red: life
|orange: healing
|yellow: sunlight
|green: nature
|turquoise: magic/art
|indigo: serenity/harmony
|violet: spirit
given the meanings, I think maybe we should return to an eight color flag!! afterall, what's life without sexuality, magic and art!

Merchant Bengt Gustaf Kronberg (1819–1901) – brewing industry supporter
Bengt Gustafsson Kronberg owned Engeltofta from 1871. He was born in Ljusnarsberg in Örebro County as son of the miner Eric Kronberg and his wife Stina Ulrika (Ulla) Törnblom. The couple had seven daughters and six sons. At age 18, Bengt Gustafsson started his career as shop assistant at the trader CE Montan in Falun. After three years, Kronberg moved to Gävle and Örn's trading house, which he took over in 1845.
Kronberg concentrated in a few industries and made significant investments in primarily malting. The brewing industry in Gävle was very comprehensive in the second half of the 1800s and the need for malt was therefore great. Malt manufacturing was carried out by several malt houses, of which Kronbergs was the largest. At the end of 1890, his production amounted to 650,000 kg malt annually. His malt house was situated at Stora Holmen at forst and later moved to the factory at Ruddammsgatan.
In addition to his trading firm and malt factory, Kronberg held several board appointments, with Gavle Manufaktur AB, Korsnäs Sawmill AB and Gefle Valskvarn AB as some examples. He was also a member of the City Council and the poverty relief board.
Kronberg owned the residence Riksdrotsen number 1, which was purchased in 1872 and Engeltofta that he bought in 1882, but also owned several other properties, such as three warehouses at Alderholmen, the widow house at Valbogatan, Children's Hospital at Karlavägen, the summer house Katrineborg and a number of fields.
In 1869, only ten days after the great fire disaster in Gävle, BG Kronberg married Augusta Lindh in Falun. The year after, their son Erik was born.
Bengt Gustafsson Kronberg died in 1901. His wealth increased steadily over the years and amounted to 2.6 million SEK according to the probate (current value about 114 million SEK).
In 195, a ship that transported timber between Sweden and England was named after BG Kronberg. The owner was Erik Brodin AB in Gävle.

For 2012 there are significant changes for the Evergreen Classic Benefit Horse Show. The WSHJA Board of Directors would like to share the following message regarding these changes and the investments being made on behalf of the membership:
Show season is upon us, and, once again, WSHJA is proud to bring you the 2012 Spring National Show Circuit, the Northwest Autumn Classic and the October Classic. We hope that you enjoyed these shows last year and we look forward to bringing you another year filled with worthy competition, wonderful hospitality and a winning spirit.
This year, WSHJA is hosting the Evergreen Classic Benefit Horse Show for the first time in several years. The Evergreen Classic has a 30+ year history in the Pacific Northwest as our premier horse show, providing the opportunity to show on the grass and giving us the chance to all come together and celebrate with parties under the tents, fantastic hunter derby events and a challenging Grand Prix. We have hired Dianne Johnson as the Show Manager; we are excited to see Dianne in action as she puts together another fantastic show for the WSHJA community.
Previously, there has been some concern in regard to the condition of the footing of this show since it's been held at the Remlinger grounds in Carnation. We want you to know that we are doing everything we can to ensure that the footing will be safe and suitable for our horses. Along those lines, we have hired Hans Van Meenen to assess the footing and give us a plan for the year which we are implementing immediately. Hans is extremely well respected in the field of show grounds footing. He is responsible for the grounds at HITS Desert Horse Park in Thermal California and others in both the US and Canada. Hans has assured us that he will be bringing his vast wealth of knowledge to our show – giving us the ability to not only improve the footing for this year, but to continue to care for it so that it flourishes in the following years – providing us with a continued investment in the future of The Classic. The Evergreen Classic is a show with a long history in Washington State, and we, as a board, are excited about continuing the legacy of this horse show. We want to communicate to you, our members, that we are committed to doing whatever it takes to make this show a wonderful experience for all.
For those of you who want this show to be a success as much as we do, we need your help! We are pulling everything together, but we need YOU! We are looking for sponsors, of all levels, to help with the show effort. And we need all kinds of volunteers. In order for The Classic to be the show that we all want it to be, we must come together as a community and work toward that goal. We hope that, by stating our commitment to you, you too, will find yourself willing to help in whatever way possible to ensure The Evergreen Classic reaches the high standards we have all come to look for in this top rated show.
There are many ways to get involved. Please take a moment to look through the sponsorship opportunity documents and the volunteer opportunity document.

We look forward to working with you. And thank you in advance for your support of the Evergreen Classic.

I'm working backwards from the ending of the trip. This is from week 8 and 9 of the trip with Sue still there. It was great. We had rented a car to get around and that was very handy.
TARASCON, FRANCE - A very cool castle.
Saignon, France -- just outside of Apt. What a cool village with a great chateau/castle at the top. Very neat to be among all that history.
Sue and I in ITALY on the Mediterranean. Pretty cool. Only four hours from Lacoste by car. Not bad. That's like driving to Atlanta from here ... only much cooler.
It was just starting to bloom in this one field near Goult in Provence.
Final projects and the critique for TRAVEL PORTFOLIO - a great class to teach because of the results that come from it with the students. They really surprise me with the art they produce.
Sue and I in OPPEDE LE VIEUX which is about 20 minutes away from Lacoste. There's the ruins of a cool chateau/sort of castle at the top of the village on the side of a mountain. Sue's looking good here ... as usual.
Final Critiques for VISUAL STORYTELLING 1 and 2. Don't I look like I know what I'm doing?
Here's the photo we took at the party after Vernissage. This is most of the students (a couple are missing) that were in Lacoste for Spring 2011.

Nobody likes to work with a bad apple. Unfortunately for most, you can't always choose whom you work with. What you can choose, however, is an actual, edible apple. Here are some of the best ways to find a good apple the next time you're picking apples with, well, a bunch of good apples.
Additionally, we have a few ways to salvage some of those bad apples. (No, not the ones you sit next to at work. Sorry, folks.)
1. Steer Clear of Soft Apples
Have you ever tossed a perfectly firm apple into a bag, carried said bag to work, and discovered that your once-perfect apple is now a bad apple?
Avoid apples that look like they've traveled sixteen stops along the subway in a canvas bag while at the orchard. The key to freshness is, in fact, firmness.
2. Use Your Nose
Believe it or not, the very same way you check milk's freshness is a way to determine the quality of an apple. Before picking an apple, give it a quick sniff.
Apples that please the olfactories are safe. Apples that smell rotten, however, are not.
3. Know Your Colors
Your mother always told you not to judge a book by its cover. Apples, however, aren't quite the same. Other than the obvious (e.g. bruising and bites already taken), it's important to know how the variety of apple you're picking is supposed to look.
A Granny Smith shouldn't be red, and, believe it or not, a Red Delicious shouldn't be green.
4. A Picked Apple Will No Longer Ripen
Once an apple is picked, the deed is done. For comparison's sake, the bags of frozen berries you buy at the supermarket are frozen incredibly quickly after they're picked. This is when they're the ripest.
By picking an apple at its ripest, you're certainly not freezing it at its peak freshness forever, but you're definitely halting its growth. Everything from here on out is (you guessed it) decay.
5. Don't Toss Rotten Apples!
Hold it right there! Sure, we just told you that everything from here on out is decay. We never said decay is inherently bad, though. Not-so-ripe apples can be used in applesauce, pies, and smoothies.
Additionally, you can sure as heck cover them in brown sugar and bake them until they taste good.

Magnanni Men's Marco Monk Strap Loafer
If you haven't heard of Magnanni then you should know that they still believe making shoes is an art form. As more and more designers rely on machines to make their products, Magnanni keeps crafting their shoes by hand. Magnanni started as a family run company and even today they still have family members overseeing production. Using quality leather materials, you can expect that this is one of the best shoes that will ever be on your foot. Now if you have a pair of Magnanni shoes then we recommend that you pick up a pair of Emporio Armani underwear to go with your outfit.
Not all handmade shoes are created equally and this is my first pair of Magnanni shoes. I have heard nothing but good reviews from other owners and expected quality. I like the look of this monk strap loafer and the nice burnished leather upper, so I decided to order a pair off of the internet. When I received these shoes in the mail I noticed the quality construction of these shoes and had to try them on. Let's take a deeper look at the Magnanni shoes.
Features of the Magnanni Men's Marco Monk Strap Loafer
If have a wide foot then I recommend trying these on in the store before you commit to a purchase because these are a more narrow loafer. The thing to remember is that you will break in the shoe over time and that they will adjust to your feet. The burnished look of the shoes will be harder to see inside than outside but when you do get to see a glimpse of these you will notice that they are a piece of art. When I tried these on and walked around for the first time I noticed a fit that could only be hand crafted.
The sole of the shoe is made from fine leather and the leather detailed monk strap is the perfect touch. You will notice that the distressed leather becomes more apparent towards the heel of the shoe. I have no doubt if well taken care of that these shoes will last for a long time. Here are some additional features:
- Leather Upper
- Leather Sole
- Distressed leather becomes more prominent towards the heel of this narrow, modern loafer.
- Product Dimensions: 12 x 8 x 4 inches; 1.1 pounds
- Produced in Spain
This shoe will get many compliments from others and goes well with many outfits. When purchasing the shoe, it said that these were gray in color but you can get a better sense of the color from the photos above.
Final Thoughts on the Magnanni Men's Marco Monk Strap Loafer
If you are looking for a quality hand crafted shoe then look no further. I always say you get what you pay for and this shoe is no exception. It may be a bit more than others on the market but will last longer and feel better. Click the link below to get additional information about this amazing shoe.
Youtube Video on Magnanni Men's Shoes:

- Magnanni Men's Shoes - 9.1/109.1/10
Magnanni hand crafts all of their shoes and you can see it in the quality. Making shoes for over 50 years I would say they know what they are doing. This shoe is elegant and will give you a sharp look with many outfits.

11 Kitchen Island Ideas
Photos of Types of Kitchen Islands
The shape of your island will influence the flow of your kitchen. Take a look at these kitchen island designs and shapes to get ideas for your next kitchen island.
And then click here to see over 90 more custom home kitchen island photos on Houzz.
Types of kitchen islands: One-sided seating
Islands with seating on one side or end function as great breakfast and casual eating areas. Limiting you seating to one side keeps the other sides fully functional - for cooking and storage - so your family can multi-task without jockeying for prime kitchen space.
Types of kitchen islands: Two-sided seating
When you have a bit more square footage to spread out in your kitchen, adding an island with two sides of seating is ideal for large groups and events.
A raised bar area lends formality to holidays or events where you wish to lay out rows of serving platters.
Types of kitchen islands: Hidden seating
Whether your kitchen is large or small, incorporating a hidden seating area under the island can make a big difference.
Just tuck your unoccupied stools under this kitchen island - and open up a hallway of space between the kitchen and breakfast nook.
When adding hidden chair storage, you can often keep the same number of island cabinets, and just lose a bit of depth. Or you can extend an existing island with a minimal overhang to create the hidden seating you desire, with a bit of added cost for additional granite and side walls.
In this kitchen layout, you should consider the trade-off of storage types.
Types of kitchen islands: Raised Eating Bar
Which is better, islands that are all one level or islands that have a raised area for seating?
All one level: Homebuyers that choose an island that is all one level often say they love the expansive work space. A single-level surface lets them spread out - especially when multiple people work at each side of the island.
Raised area for seating: Homebuyers that choose an island with a raised area for seating often say they love having that space as a family gathering area. In the mornings, their kids eat breakfast there. In the afternoons, they cook while interacting with their kids who sit at the island to do homework. The island is a contained space, still large enough to multi-task on.
Types of kitchen islands: L shaped
You will find L-shaped islands in many large, open concept kitchen floor plans. L-shaped islands generally face two rooms, often a breakfast nook and keeping room or great room.
When homebuyers choose an L-shaped, rather than extra wide or extra long island, it is often because the L shape increases maneuverability in the space.
Types of kitchen islands: C shaped
A C-shaped or U-shaped island gives true spatial definition to your kitchen, even in an open concept plan. By defining the space better, C-shaped or U-shaped islands lend a more traditional feel to your kitchen without forgoing a casual cooking and dining feel.
Types of kitchen islands: Rectangle shaped
Rectagle and square shaped are the most common type of kitchen island. A prep sink, such as the one pictured here, is great for an island that is wide enough.
If you kitchen is on the medium or small side, however, you may be more satisfied leaving out the prep sink in order to keep a more open, flat work space.
Types of kitchen islands: Odd shaped
A custom kitchen design can incroproate an island of any shape or size. In this photo, a hexagon shaped island mirrors the shape of the kitchen layout.
Types of kitchen islands: Curved
If you love the configuration of a rectangular island, but want something a little different, consider rounding the counter top or adding unique angles on the sides.
In this photo, solid, carved wood legs were selected to give a French Country feel to this custom kitchen design.
Types of kitchen islands: Extra wide
Super-sizing your island is one of the biggest kitchen design trends of 2014.
Types of kitchen islands: Extra long
And when your kitchen serves so many functions - from date night cooking sessions to homework help stations - it is easy to see why more homebuyers are opting for extra wide or extra long islands.

Four rescuers from China's search and rescue team got on board the Iranian oil tanker 'Sanchi' at around 8:35 a.m. BJT on Saturday morning, and found the two bodies of crew member on a deck. The first body had been found on Monday, which leaves the number of the remaining crew members at 29.
The rescuers also retrieved the oil tanker's voyage data recorder (VDR), which stores important data on a ship.
Iran's Minister of Labor, Ali Rabiei, who was appointed by President Rouhani as the head of the committee to follow-up the Sanchi case, is currently in China's crisis room to make the necessary coordination on search and rescue operations and meet up with the Chinese officials.
According to CEO of National Iranian Tanker Company, the Chinese rescuers were on board for only 30 minutes due to high levels of toxic gases and lack of oxygen.
Sirious Kiani went on to add that the Iranian Army commando forces, who have been situated at Port of Shanghai since Thursday, are ready to engage in search and rescue operations once the conditions are right.
He added that the identities of the two found bodies are as of yet unknown.
Due to strong winds and toxic gases, it was impossible to have more rescuers on deck, Kiani said, adding that the forces will once again board the still ablaze tanker to continue with the operations.
The Panama-registered Iranian oil tanker, Sanchi, with 32 crew members on board, caught on fire after colliding with a Hong Kong cargo ship on Jan. 6, 160 nautical miles (296 km) from China's east coast.
The Sanchi was carrying 136,000 tons of condensate, worth some $60 million, and bound for the Republic of Korea.

It's not right. It's not fair!
Monday, March 7, 2011
You guys, I have to say, this weekend was rough. I was sick as a dog with a bad cold and I had my car broken into and purse stolen. I am equally annoyed about having to replace everything in my bag as I am just plain angry, however, I have tried to put everything into perspective: I am safe. Scout is safe. My ipod, wallet, checkbooks, numerous Christmas gift cards, rayban sunglasses, mail and favorite book are just possessions and can be replaced. And because this blog is not a platform to complain, I'll spare you and just say to everyone out there reading this the obvious to please learn from my mistake: never ever leave your purse in your car. Not even for a minute. I was only gone for sixty seconds picking up Scout and the perps were there and gone in that small amount of time. And locked doors do not count here either, people. Mine were locked solid and that didn't stop them from chucking a brick through my window.
Ok, 2011 .... stop testing me! You promised you'd be better!

Favorite Things: Color Collective
Hi Guys! We're back again with The Favorite Things Series with one of my favorite bloggers! Ms.Lauren Willhite of Color Collective hails from Portland, OR and has created a website that is used as a designers' resource for color. Lauren pulls color from the hippest fashion photographs and images. She makes art seem like a science and I'm constantly in awe of how inspiring her website is! Check out her favorite things below and pop over to her blog to learn some more about her!
lauren's favorite things
Indian food! I could eat it every day of my life—for real.
The Sound of Music! A classic, and my favorite—always.
Red wine. Usually Cabernets.
I go in spurts with reading. Usually I'm too preoccupied on my computer or watching a television series. But I do love to sit down with a good book and a cup of tea when it's cold outside! I can't think of a favorite, but soon I will be reading the Harry Potter series and I have a feeling that I'm totally going to geek out over those.
My taste in music changes all the time, but one thing that will never change is my belief that Dark Side Of The Moon (Pink Floyd) is the best album of all time.
A day on the beach, with nothing to do but relax.
I'll have to go with Marc Jacobs and Chanel.
Way too hard! I like everything from Kanye to Taylor Swift!
I subscribe to over 500 blogs, and to pick a favorite is absolutely impossible for me! Some blogs I visit often off the top of my head are Frolic!, Lawn Party, Pattern Observer, Design for Mankind, The Jealous Curator and of course La Petite Choue!
Portland (where I live). It's a beautiful city with a great sense of community. People are friendly and laid back. Summer days are the best and I fill them with lots of bike rides and berry picking.
My husband, Matt. My bff.
Lavender. I can't get enough of it.
Thanks so much for participating in The Favorite Things Series, Lauren!

What does your tea time look like?
Tuesday, March 1, 2011
Oooo! I just stumbled across the most delicious website this afternoon! What does your team time look like? is a project for tea lovers everywhere to share how they enjoy their tea times. Their goal is to create a lovely gallery of what "tea time" looks like and showcase all the interesting ways in which it is enjoyed. They invite everyone to submit a photo (cue to total crazy tea photo shoot at my place this weekend!) Aren't the photos below just dreamy?

The flowers in our Bordering on Romance stamp set are incredibly versatile. They can be stamped and made a focal point but are also beautiful in the background. Recently while looking through a copy of Paper Crafts Magazine, I ran across a card that showed white embossed flowers on pastel card stock. Such a sweet look - I knew I had to give it a try!
The same floral image is used to create both the background and the focal point. Simple coloring, a corner punch and a heartfelt sentiment help to finish off the card. Of course, I couldn't resist adding the super-easy-to-use Jewels Basic Pearls for added detail. By the way, I labeled this as a "quick card" even though it involves embossing and coloring. It really did go quickly!
Card inspired by one created by Heidi Van Laar (shared in Paper Crafts magazine)

St. John's congregation was established in 1880 by the settlers of New Decatur, but the current structure wasn't built until 1893. Originally facing north, the church was physically turned around to face east. St. John's was modeled after Gothic English Parish Churches and is the only true Gothic church in Decatur.
St. John's Episcopal Church is part of the North Alabama Hallelujah Trail of Sacred Places, a driving tour of 32 churches that are at least 100 years old, stand on their original sites, still hold services and are accessible to the public.

I seem to be perpetually behind when it comes to the challenges over on the Tilda ATC challenge blog - without realising I'm now 4 weeks behind! I really need to get a card made for my Dad as it's his birthday next week and he's off to France with Mum for a couple of weeks - instead of getting on with it I managed to get a couple of the challenges done. The first ATC was for the 'Going Dotty' theme - totally uninspired for this one, I was going to use my Swiss Dots cuttlebug embossing folder but completely forgot! I used some dotty/spotty paper from a previous Gogo kit and one of the new Tilda's from the Spring Stamp club.
The second one is for this weeks challenge, Bugs! I didn't have a clue what to do for this one - I was going to use the ladybug stamps I have from Cuddly Buddly but then I remembered I have the Magnolia butterflies. I stamped the grass - another Cuddly Buddly stamp - along the bottom, then used the 2 cloud stamps from the Spring Stamp club & coloured then in with Siam White Twinkling H2o, coloured the sky with a Prisma 'sky blue light' pencil, stamped the butterflies and added 'bug' using my ATB tape writer.

I last posted in late May. I've been swamped since then, but to be honest, it's good stuff.
In May and into early June, I pretty much fished every second I wasn't at the gym or at work. And, I was at the gym a lot.
We had my daughter's high school graduation in May. Then, we took off to Lake Tahoe for a week of vacation. Vacation was spent with friends in a house they had rented at Lake Tahoe. We got in a couple days of fly fishing, a lot of mini golf, some disc golf, lots of hiking and walking, and a lot of great meals, plus some visits with friends who live in CA. At the end of the trip, we spent a day in San Francisco and saw a baseball game (the hated Giants won 8-7 over the Phillies, but it was a good game), and then we visited Amoeba Records - a store my son has always wanted to see.
As soon as we got home from CA, my wife and I showered, packed some clothes and headed to New York for my CT scan at Sloan Kettering. The scan was completely clean - my first clean scan since I first heard the word liposarcoma.
By mid-July, fishing was getting very tough due to a mild drought and very warm summer. It's been a few weeks now since I have fished, although I'm going to go way north to fix that problem this weekend.
I had a huge project at work. I had re-negotiated our primary IT contract with the company that provides our servers for us. This allowed me to consolidate some servers, add some security features, and make our systems more secure at a lower price than we were paying before. But, it took almost 6 weeks to plan and execute the cut-over to the new hardware and some new software versions.
About the time we finished that project, my wife and I had our 30th wedding anniversary. We had a really nice lunch in Boston the weekend before our anniversary, and we saw Bryan Ferry while we were there. The weekend after our anniversary, I cooked a nice dinner with my wife's family, and we opened some nice wines, including two Bordeaux from our wedding year, one of which was the amazing Mouton Rothschild. That wine is still too young at age 30, so I'm hoping to open our other bottle for our 40th anniversary. I'm already planning a bottle of 1986 Chateau Margaux for our 50th.
And now, the house is in chaos as my daughter is preparing to head off to Syracuse next week to start her freshman year of college
In the interim, we are just trying to enjoy life. I have my next CT scan in November, and if that one is clear, I will be clear for all of ski season. My wife and I are training a lot - in the gym and walking and (some) running on the weekends, plus a little bike riding for me.
So, we are busy doing the things we love, living life, trying not to think about cancer too much, and just appreciating being able to do these things. Life has been good.
We are still on the waiting list for the Ghost Train ultra in October. My wife and I have modest goals for that race - 45 miles over 36 hours for me, and probably 30 miles for my wife. We both intend to walk the entire time.

Your partner in terms of gas and process measurement technique
Fraunhofer IPM has been developing optical and sensory measurement systems for gas and process technology for more than 30 years. A broad scope of methods for gas analysis is part of the institute's repertoire. One technological focus is on laser spectroscopy, especially in the infrared spectral range. Energy efficient, miniaturized gas sensors and sensor systems are manufactured by applying state-of-the-art processes of thin-film and thick-film technologies. These technologies are also applied in the manufacturing of measurement probes for thermal process and materials characterization. During development, our scientists focus on robust, turnkey systems, always having the application in mind. These systems can be applied in exhaust gas analysis, food chain management, in leakage-measurement or in trace gas analysis, to give just a few examples.

Watch out for loose dogs at the park and in the city this spring
As the weather warms up, it's only natural to go outside to have fun. You and your family may go for walks around the neighborhood or head to a park to burn off some energy and get some fresh air. Exercise and being outdoors are great for your health, but there's also risk involved.
Aggressive driving is a big problem for everyone on the road
There are many dangerous types of driving. Drunk, distracted and fatigued driving are three that come to mind quickly. There is another one that you might not think about very often -- aggressive driving.

6 tips to calm down an angry dog
An angry dog might not calm down all by itself. In fact, an angry dog could benefit from some gentle assistance from the people around to prevent an attack.

Lead poisoning dangers: Be careful to avoid lead contamination
Manufacturers of paint, automobiles, gasoline and countless other products used lead as an additive to improve the quality of the items they produced. While lead additives did provide many benefits, however, they created serious lead poisoning problems for the people exposed to them.
Driving on wintry roads takes skill and thought
The snow is a beautiful and peaceful sight to see when you wake up in the morning. The issues that you face won't likely show up until it is time for you to get out and drive.
Why is it hard to prove a manufacturing defect?
Imagine you're a manufacturing company that owns the patent to a new invention. Maybe it's a special contraption that lets you boil eggs twice as fast, but it has a design defect. The invention is prone to explode.

In the book The Plant Paradox Dr. Steven R. Gundry, M.D. tells us what foods NOT to eat so we can avoid common ailments like obesity, dementia, allergies, arthritis, heart disease and more. In this book, The Plant Paradox Cookbook, he offers foods we CAN eat to allow our body to heal and function properly.
These recipes look odd but taste wonderful. My wife says it's like gourmet but better than eating out. By avoiding some foods our bodies are returning to a more youthful state. I just hope I don't have to go back through junior high.

Cartographer Of Distances: Solnit's Narrative Space
There was a continuity that was my breath since birth, and the anesthesiologist cut that, tied a knot in it, put me on monitors and respirators, then started a new thread, and while I was stopped, the continuity that was my skin was cut, and I was altered, and then sewn shut with thread and knots. There are a thousand stories in which someone falls asleep or wanders off to fairyland and comes back unchanged to find that years, decades, centuries have passed, but surgical anesthesia is the opposite adventure: you go to sleep for what seems a moment, and when you wake up everything is the same except yourself. You have been severed from who you were when you went in and stitched to another destiny and body, saved or maimed or both.

Matthew McNicholas Talks with Good Morning America on Defamation Lawsuit Filed Against Spike TV
Partner Matthew McNicholas appeared on ABC's Good Morning America discussing the lawsuit the firm recently filed against Spike TV, on behalf of contractor Jeff Dillman, for allegedly luring him to a fake client's house in order to ambush Mr. Dillman with camera crews and threaten him that if he did not participate in the show To Catch a Contractor, they would assist the homeowner in taking him to court concerning problems for a remodeling job.
As also published by The Hollywood Reporter, Mr. Dillman arrived at a Los Angeles home believing he was going to retrieve a check for contracted work. Instead, he was surprised by the show's cast and crewmembers, as well as a bouncer blocking the door. Mr. McNicholas' client was then forced to sign a release, appear on the show and complete the remodeling project, in which he was paid $10,000 for his participation. In the course of the show, they brandished his picture while calling him a criminal.
The show aired on Spike TV on March 23, 2014.

good morning to #eggboy [cw ec]
good morning #wednesdaywisdom
good morning, guitar picks
@ashfurrow lol at the microsd adapter
@danielle I don't even know why I own this, I think for my Raspberry Pi?
@ashfurrow are those your top picks?
@aru if I had my pick, I'd take the purple one
@ashfurrow Why?
@_0x00_ dunno! Just seemed funny to me.
@ashfurrow it looks like the bigger bells are for specific kinds of trouble.
@ashfurrow Maybe smaller has a higher pitch and that is easier to hear or more attention-grabbing, compared with the others?
@ashfurrow Makes the highest pitched sound.
@ashfurrow Did or does the place fab PC boards.
@AskChip it's the 24th story of an old NYC Chinatown high-rise, so anything's possible!
@ashfurrow I worked at a fab plant many years ago and the ovens were entire rooms where you slide long racks of boards into the bake the epoxy mask after the screen room put it on. Wall mounted oven thermostat outside the doors. When they opened those doors the heat just rolled out.
@ashfurrow Maybe it controls the air conditioning?
@ashfurrow hey, someone at least thought to label the small box. I definitely have one in my house that is unlabled
@ashfurrow kitty
@ashfurrow Try this one:
Base 6 is the best counting base, so the superior approach would be to create a new set of units based on the same principles as the metric system, but optimised for heximal, and then to use those.
@OTheB seems like base6 is further from what humans use than base10, but to each their own I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@ashfurrow Base 6 is great. Has lots of factors, doesn't suffer from the nasty recurring decimals that dozenal does, and every prime number above 3 ends with either a 1 or a 5, which is a nice pattern.
It's also barely less dense than decimal, so you won't end up with huge long numbers.
Something to think about if you ever find yourself thinking "hmm, I really want to learn a new counting base, but I'm not sure which" :)
@ashfurrow Can't actually think of one reason nor a single instance where or why fahrenheit would be better.
@ashfurrow It's not even a good argument. You can't feel a couple degrees F but you probably can feel a couple degrees C.
@ashfurrow It's only good for a couple very specific things. 🤷
@ashfurrow of course not! Same for Celsius. Kelvin is The True Way to measure temperature.
@jacek oh now that's just silly 😜
@ashfurrow millions of physicists can't be wrong! 😉
@ashfurrow ObXkcd: https://xkcd.com/1923/
@dasyatidprime oh my god, the ultimate centrist measuring scale
@ashfurrow 🕯 for those of us in the US who want the Metric system and will never get it #thoughtsAndPrayers
@ashfurrow yes! This is a step in the right direction. Us Brits just need to get you guys to start adding the letter 'u' back in to words like 'colour'. Final step is to replace 'z' with 's', like 'categorise'. 😁
@kev also 'z' is pronounced "zed"
@ashfurrow YES! So much yes! As someone who works for a large American company, I'm faced with this daily! 🤣🤣🤣
@kev the only benefit is that the alphabet song rhymes better in American English, but it's just not worth it!
@ashfurrow I really wish it would be switched. Sadly some people think that metric is a scam.
@ashfurrow But see, it works: they get (slightly) more space. 2" = 5.08cm. Those funny measures fool you…
@IzzyOnDroid well this _is_ just a unit test 😉 there's no calculation here, just picking between one of two strings from the API.
@ashfurrow So no comparison, OK. Still, I always wonder how they convert between inches, yards and miles in their heads – or summing up multiple stages of a route. There must be a trick (/me asks the search engine) – uhm? "1760 yards is a mile because there are 3 feet in a yard and 5280 is the important figure here." OK, I'm lost…
@mdhughes aye, but F is mostly only used in conversation. Siri, my AC, my devices are all set to °C.
Amen 🇨🇦
@ashfurrow Don't worry americans are just a little bit... metrically challenged.
@ashfurrow It's the devils unit
Who the hell cares when salty ice water freezes anyway
@ashfurrow We were taught Fahrenheit at my school. Also learned rods/poles, chains and acres. Strangely enough, I have had no use for any of them since.
@ashfurrow At least we Americans have a consensus about what to call the scale, none of this Celsius vs Centigrade crap.. Besides, if you ask a librarian where to find "Celsius 233", they just call Security.
@muchtodo hey so it's 80°F today so does that mean it's 80% hot? What if it's 110°, is it 110% hot? I'm just not smart enough for Fahrenheit!

If you have central station monitoring of your panel, and decide to add your own sensors (zones), rename existing zones, delete zones, etc, you will need to call your central station before you start and have your system put "on test" for say two hours, or however long you think it will take. Then following the installation/programming, you can call to have system "taken off of test", and/or then ask for 'Data Entry'.
If you do not, and the sensor activates, central station will not know what the device for the zone activation is. You have to tell them, so they can add the sensor and what it is (regardless of of it being listed/shown on alarm.com).
Be sure to give them the zone and descriptor. (I.e., you added a new dw10 window as sensor 16, and you added the descriptor "second floor window", you would have data entry add "zone 16, second floor window". Ditto for renaming existing zones, or deleting zones.)
Note- not applicable to zwave gear added. Only to supervisory and alarm initiating sensors (I.e., if the sensor you add is a doorbell, flood sensor, etc, or if it can put your panel into alarm, this includes keyfobs, and keypads, and TS1 touchpads, as they have the 'fixed panic' capability to put panel into alarm, and so you need to have Data Entry add the new zone/device descriptor)
