Obama: Focus On The Next 4 Years, Not The Last Ones
This is WEEKEND EDITION from NPR News. I'm Rachel Martin. President Barack Obama says the country has come too far in the last four years to change course now. He kicked off his re-election campaign yesterday with a pair of high-profile rallies in two pivotal states, Ohio and Virginia. Mr. Obama said, yes, he understands that the economic recovery still has a long way to go, but he argues his Republican challenger, Mitt Romney, would move the country backward, not forward. NPR's Scott Horsley reports.
SCOTT HORSLEY, BYLINE: The president's first official re-election rallies had some of the trappings of his 2008 campaign: huge crowds, stirring music, even the old standby chant of Fired Up, Ready to Go.
HORSLEY: Mr. Obama said this campaign is still about hope and change, though he acknowledged many hopes were dashed by the severe recession that cost three million jobs in the six months before he took office.
PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: It was tough. But I tell you what, Ohio. The American people are tougher.
HORSLEY: The president stressed the four million jobs private employers have added in the last two years. Voters got another reminder, though, of the uneven pace of that recovery with a weaker-than-expected jobs report on Friday.
OBAMA: Are we satisfied?
OBAMA: Of course not. Too many of our friends and family are still out there looking for work.
HORSLEY: Mr. Obama is eager to frame the election not as a referendum on the last four years, but rather a choice between his agenda and the Republicans. He said the important question is not whether you're better off now than before the economic crisis hit, but whose policies will make you and the country better off in the future. He argued that Republican rival Mitt Romney has drawn the wrong lesson from his own successful business career. Outsourcing jobs or busting unions might help an individual company's bottom line, Mr. Obama said, but it's not the right course for average Americans or the U.S. economy.
OBAMA: The true measure of our prosperity is more than just a running tally of every balance sheet and quarterly profit report. I don't care how many ways you try to explain it. Corporations aren't people. People are people.
HORSLEY: Mr. Obama argued that Romney would rubber-stamp the agenda of congressional Republicans, with big tax cuts for the wealthy, big cuts in spending on programs for the middle class and fewer regulations on Wall Street and insurance companies. He said that's the same agenda Republicans pursued before the financial crisis.
OBAMA: They're just hoping you won't remember what happened the last time we tried it their way. Virginia, I'm here to say that we were there. We remember. And we're not going back. We're moving this country forward.
HORSLEY: Supporters in the crowd waved blue placards that read Forward, and red signs that said, Not Back.
HORSLEY: Romney campaign spokeswoman Andrea Saul issued a statement saying no matter how many lofty campaign speeches President Obama gives, the fact remains that American families are struggling on his watch. Both sides are already campaigning hard in battleground states. Pete Snyder heads a Republican organizing effort in Virginia.
PETE SNYDER: We are not leaving any ounce, any yard of this football field to Barack Obama and to the Democrats this year. Look, in 2008, we got our clocks cleaned on the ground. You know it. We know it. We're never going to let that happen again.
HORSLEY: One function of the president's rallies yesterday was to sign up and motivate his own volunteers. Supporters were urged to register voters and campaign door-to-door between now and November. First lady Michelle Obama stressing that the race is likely to be decided by a relative handful of votes.
MICHELLE OBAMA: With every single call you make, every single conversation, I want you to remember that this could be the one, right? This could be the one that makes the difference.
HORSLEY: The preliminaries are over. The general election campaign is underway. Scott Horsley, NPR News.

As the first Saudi woman to climb Mount Everest and a new friend of the brand, Raha Moharrak came to Switzerland and took a tour of the TAG Heuer manufacture.
As the first Saudi woman to climb Mount Everest and a new friend of the brand, Raha Moharrak came to Switzerland and took a tour of the TAG Heuer manufacture.
Far from the 8'848 meters of Mount Everest climbed by the young alpinist in 2013, TAG Heuer is honored to have welcomed Raha Moharrak in its manufacture and its 360-degree museum. A first in the Swiss mountains for the brand's new friend.
Visit of the Haute-Horlogerie Workshop where the most complex pieces come to life. Discovery of the test labs where each model's components are tried and tested. Immersion into the 360-degree museum to explore TAG Heuer's legacy. The young climber met watchmakers, engineers and experts to talk of their savoir-faire and the values they perpetrate.
Accuracy, commitment, resistance – for Raha Moharrak, the #dontcrackunderpressure motto is embodied in each moment of her daily life, and leads her to face new challenges. An unerring strength and willingness to overcome each challenge along the way while achieving what had yet appeared impossible.
Raha Moharrak made History at the age of 25 when she triumphantly reached the Himalaya's highest peak. Her life changed the day she climbed her first mountain, the Kilimanjaro. Thereafter defying the the seven continents' highest peaks, she became a pioneer in the Middle-East by ascending the Mount Everest. And even more so, her resolute determination makes her an inspiration.

Event Thirty-Three: Go West
Event Thirty-Three: Go West[edit]
This particular event is started by scaling the appropriate building in the Upper West Side, where the starting point can be found. The idea here is, as with all glide-type events, to reach the predetermined location, where a bull's-eye can be found on the ground. By landing closer to the center of the bull's-eye, you'll be able to score a better medal, and thus, more EP. There's a catch, of course -- the bull's-eye, in this case, is located in the middle of a building's courtyard. Thus, precise calculations will be required on your part to successfully achieve a gold medal ranking.
As always, you'll need fully-leveled glide and dashing abilities, because you'll have to dash twice midair in order to reach the location of the bull's-eye. Get a good running start and immediately glide when you've reached the top of your jump. This should give you plenty of distance, so that not more than a single dash may be necessary in order to progress towards the bull's-eye. You won't see your actual target until you've glided for quite some time, so be ready to drop down on top of the courtyard surrounded by a tall apartment building at the last second.

This is an informative course and I can say it's a perfect introductory course for those who are looking to understand how the current momentum is for AR/VR. As this is a teach out ,you shouldn't expect any teaching stuff related to coding/creating a prototypes in VR but this is absolutely a basic thing to start with.Loved it.

Like the other people, I also feel ripped off by godaddy for not realizing the "Domain Buy Service" is actually a "Domain Bidding Service". Here's what the purchaser sees from beginning to end. The only warning was the small print on the 2nd page beneath "How does this work?". Clearly, it needs to be more clear that you are not purchasing the domain. I'll be transferring all my domains because they refused a refund despite not having provided any service. After they refused a refund, I offered a bid.
Landing page:
Second page:
3rd page, checkout:
Solved! Go to Solution.
I understand the frustration, but this is exactly why it's important to make informed buying decisions and read the fine print. GoDaddy isn't hiding anything about the way the service works. Every complaint I've seen about this service is literally because the customer didn't read the fine print and inform themselves.
I get it, though. You feel like you were ripped off. I have felt this pain before myself, sometimes even with GoDaddy, but in the end I realized it was my lack of understanding that was the issue.
I will say I agree with you that it would be nice for GoDaddy to make it a little more apparent what the Domain Buy Service does because this has been a common complaint. All it would really take is a notice in big letters on the service page.
Sorry you had a bad experience.

Etiquette When Asking for Help from the Community
I had the same issue. Shame on you GoDaddy, there are no excuses.
@ zawy , After calling the customer service they understood the situation without too many questions and refunded the purchasing straight away! After how long did you call ?
I didn't realize what had happened until I believe 2 days later. I didn't try calling due to people saying calling GoDaddy does not help. I opened a dispute with PayPal with a description of the complaint and PayPal said GoDaddy refused to refund, despite not having taken any steps to start the "service" other than an email I had not clicked on.
Hi @zawy - Generally speaking, the Domain Buy Service can be refunded if you haven't set your minimum and maximum amount you're willing to spend within your account. Simply clicking an email wouldn't do this. If you haven't set those, I'd recommend connecting with support to request a refund.
That's not true because, as I said, I did not click on anything and they refused to give a PayPal refund. But later I did make an offer, so I assume contacting support now may not help By the way, the response to my offer was "this domain is not for sale" which is not exactly what people expect even if they meant to use the service. It's not even a "bidding" service because you're charging without knowing if the domain is potentially for sale.
@zawy - It sounds like you may have received some incorrect information. I'd suggest reaching out to our support team and speaking with a supervisor. If you were not advised correctly, you may be eligible for a refund. However, that's not something that can be investigated or confirmed here on the community forum. Sorry
I don't understand what incorrect information you're referring to. GoDaddy charge $70 for a "domain buy service" that mentions in the small print on the "add to cart" page (but not the checkout page) that it is not actually a domain buy service . GoDaddy refused to give a refund when I found out it does not buy the domain. GoDaddy does not know if domains are for sell when it charges the "non-refundable" $70.
@zawy - From what you said earlier, it sounds like you initially reached out to support to ask for a refund and were told this was not possible. After that, you set the minimum and maximum bid. If you were told that we can't refund the service BEFORE you set the minimum and maximum price, that information was incorrect. The service is refundable until those values are set.
As I said before, I asked GoDaddy for a refund by by opening a PayPal dispute. They refused via PayPal. So you're saying GoDaddy made a mistake in telling me I was not able to get a refund.
I called support and Kim (a guy) said I would not get a refund because I made the request through PayPal instead of calling. I said I didn't like being blamed for the $70 loss and he said this is not blaming me, which I think is a position that requires very twisted reasoning just so that they can say "We are not blaming you." He also claimed the description of the service is in small print (see images above). It reminds me of "GoDaddy gives a refund if you request a refund before using the service" which is not true if you request a refund through PayPal. He said "you did not contact us, it was PayPal that contacted us." Again, I believe that's a position that requires very twisted reasoning. I sell things via PayPal. I see messages customers type when they open a dispute and I address those concerns.
Deny, deny, deny.
GoDaddy denies "Buy" Service is misleading
GoDaddy denies the warning / explanation is in small print.
GoDaddy denies they refuse refunds if the service was not used.
GoDaddy denies opening a PayPal dispute with a message field is contacting GoDaddy.
GoDaddy denies that refusing a PayPal refund is the same as refusing a refund.
GoDaddy denies they are blaming you when they blame you for losing $70.
I wanted to give direct quotes from GoDaddy support for the above via the app on my phone that automatically records phone calls, but somehow the GoDaddy support person's responses were being blocked from getting recorded. Just my voice can be heard. So they can record us, but we can't record them. Given the above persistent denial behavior, I am not surprised.
@zawy I see where the confusion came from now. Disputing a payment is not the same as requesting a refund. Per our refund policy, you would need to contact support to request a refund.
Do you deny the "Buy Service" name is misleading? Do you deny the description of it needs to be above the add to cart button instead of below it? And preferably in larger print? Do you deny customer support should attempt to resolve PayPal disputes? Do you deny I was unfairly charged $70? Do you deny that GoDaddy should let its employees be recorded while they are recording customers?
@zawy - I'll try to answer your questions.
I would say that the Domain Buy Service name has caused for confusion for some customers, but it's definitely not intentionally misleading. As for where the description should be or what size it should be, I'm not a designer and I can't really speak to that. As I've said, I think it's good feedback and will pass the idea along.
As for our refund policy and process, that is also not something I can speak to other than to tell you that we have the information listed on our website as I mentioned. Though I will also pass that feedback along appropriately.
From what you've described, I don't think you were unfairly charged. As you've shared above, the information on what the service does is included in our checkout process. We do have a process to refund the service if it isn't what you want. After entering the minimum and maximum bid, our Domain Buy Service team performed their duties as outlined by our Domain Buy Service agreement.
As for recording our agents, I've never heard of the scenario you've described occurring before. Conversely, I have heard recordings that customers have made of our agents. I'm not sure why that happened for you.
Thanks for the feedback @User837932. We're actually looking at updating the name to be more in line with what the service does. To clarify, none of the contact methods we use when reaching out to domain owners are automated.
Hey Everyone. Just wanted to update here to let you know that we've now updated the name of Domain Buy Service to Domain Broker Service. This is more in line with what the service does and will hopefully help prevent future confusion. Thanks again for all the feedback.

I get party lines, but there is a time when all of that should be put aside to show some basic human decency… unless you are Democrat in 2017.
While President Trump led a tribute in the way of a standing ovation of over two minutes for the widow of recently fallen Navy SEAL Ryan Owens, top Democrats, including the likes of Nancy Pelosi and Bernie Sanders, chose to remain in their seats and if I had my way, every one of them would be impeached right now…
As I watched the camera span the room last night, I was literally aghast at the lack of respect that was shown to this woman during this moment.
While several of the Dems did stand and applaud during her initial introduction, they refused to stand during this tribute, and it is despicable.
How can you possibly sit on your hands when the wife of a man who recently gave his life for our freedom is being honored?
The left continues to use this man's death as a political tool rather than acknowledge it for what it was — a tragic death related to a military operation.
Dems may not want to admit it, but things sometimes go wrong during a mission no matter how carefully you plan. However, that does not take away from the final result of the mission.
In this case, even with the challenging circumstances, a significant number of terrorists were taken out, and the intelligence gathered will lead to the success of future operations. Trump confirmed these facts with General Mattis prior to his speech and alluded to such while addressing Congress.
However, instead of recognizing these facts, the Dems in our government, and some RINOs like John McCain, are using his death to undermine President Trump rather than celebrate Owens's sacrifice and treat him like the hero he is.
After seeing this, I cannot imagine any Democrat watching at home last night was not disgusted by what happened, especially those who have served our country.
Sometimes, you just have to put party lines to the side and do what is right, but today's Democrats in office are clearly incapable of doing that. It is time for them to go!
What did you think of major Dems refusing to stand for the widow of Ryan Owens? Please share this story on Facebook and tell us because we want to hear YOUR voice!

as of December 1, 2015
What Are Our Objectives?
1. Increase the percentage of people living with HIV who know their serostatus to 90%(NHAS Indicator 1).
2. Decrease the percentage of people with AIDS at the time of diagnosis to < 10%.
3. Increase identification of persons with acute HIV infection.
How Will We Get There?
Decreasing the number of persons who have HIV but are unaware of their status will require expansion of routine opt-out testing in healthcare settings, coordinated and strategic use of non-healthcare setting testing targeted toward disproportionately affected populations, as well as expansion of partner services to provide testing and education to partners and sexual networks of persons with HIV. Increased identification of acute HIV infection will require widespread use of new "4th generation" HIV tests that are able to detect HIV infection earlier than older tests, including during the acute phase. Point-of-care rapid 4th generation tests are available but are not widely used in Fulton County. State and County data systems must be modified to classify correctly persons identified with acute infection, and to use these data in a timely manner for maximal impact on prevention and care. While these systems are being developed, both providers and public health staff need education on the proper management of persons with acute infection, and the need to rapidly link them to medical care and other services to support retention in care.

Hi folks,
I'll be the first to admit that I didn't plan it this way. For the most part I too was unaware of the bigger picture as I wrote book after book in the Children of the Goddess series, until I was part way through the first draft of Shadow Ascending. Then it hit me, what had been going on all along, what actually drove the goddess to make the choices She did.
No, I won't tell you what it is. You have to read the stories for yourself, see if you can puzzle it out. Okay, that's unfair I guess. Tell you what, sign up for my newsletter and I'll spill the beans in the next issue, probably later this week.
I'll also put in a few bits from something new and exciting coming up.

Celebrate Innovation Grants
Parkland School District Education Foundation Awards 47 Grants Totaling $134,660 for 2018-2019 School Year Projects
"Celebrate Innovation" Grants Benefit Parkland Students
(Allentown) – As a culminating activity in the seventh year of the Parkland School District Education Foundation's existence, the Foundation Board of Directors awarded 47 "Celebrate Innovation" grants totaling $134,660 to the Parkland School District with the intent of enriching the current curriculum to benefit a wide range of students, staff and community members.
In total, 17 awards were given to the eight Elementary schools, 14 went to the two Middle Schools and 7 were awarded to Parkland High School. Additionally, 9 grants will serve the District at large. With the addition of these grants, the Foundation has given over $875,720 back to the District since its inception in 2011.
Funding for the grants was made possible by staff contributions and by local business and community-wide support for the school district. In May, a fundraising Gala netted more than $76,000 in support of the Foundation's mission. Superintendent Richard T. Sniscak said, "I could not be more pleased with the widespread support of our programs, students and teachers. We thank everyone who took the time to apply for a grant and all those that donated to the cause this year. Special thanks also go out to the Foundation's Board of Directors, the Allocations Committee and all of the volunteers who helped make the program possible."
The "Celebrate Innovation" grant program was introduced at the start of the 2011-12 school year to the Parkland staff. In January, the opportunity for staff to apply for a "Celebrate Innovation" grant occurred with a deadline of April 1. In May, the Superintendent's Cabinet scored the grants for "need," the Curriculum & Instruction Department scored the grants for "fit", and a committee of Foundation volunteers reviewed the grants for clarity, purpose, measurable benefits, collaboration between parents, teachers and other community members, sustainability, and the range of people that the grant would benefit. The rubric offered the possibility for a grant application to score a total of 100 points. In total, 72 grant applications worth approximately $177,148 were filed by staff this year.
The Parkland School District Education Foundation is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit, tax-exempt organization whose primary goal is to raise funds to enhance the academic, arts and athletic programs for the benefit of students and staff in the Parkland School District in order to preserve a tradition of excellence and help build the dreams of children in our community.

On September 3rd, 2011, Jacob Rainey was a 17-year-old high school quarterback from Virginia with 4.6 40 speed and interest from college coaches. A week later, he'd be laid up in a hospital bed, his right leg amputated just above the knee.
The New York Times Magazine has published their story Rainey, his injury, and his attempt at a comeback. And unless your son, brother, or best friend is quarterbacking a team this year, we've found a high school signal caller we think you need to root for.
First, the injury, which sounds horrific. On a designed quarterback run, he was tackled around the legs by a defender. As he fought for more yards, he heard a pop -- then things went blank. His school's trainer can still hear the screams.
Teammates began to cry. At least one felt ill. Johnson stayed at Rainey's side. Knee dislocations are associated with severed arteries and blood loss, potentially life-threatening injuries, which the Raineys would soon learn. The popliteal artery in Jacob's leg had been ruptured, cutting off circulation to his lower limb.
The Raineys are currently consulting a lawyer and declined to go into detail about what happened at the two hospitals Jacob was taken to right after his injury. Needless to say, after multiple operations, his leg couldn't be saved. It was gone in a week, and it was gone because of football.
After months in that hospital bed -- Jacob watched game tape from his injury, and he's not sure why -- he started his recovery process. After some rehab that wasn't going anywhere, he met with David Lawrence, a physical therapist, and Joe Sullivan, a below-the-knee amputee who became a prosthetist, to come up with a plan.
In August, with a modified prosthetic and after months of therapy, he was working out with his old offensive coordinator. And although there are still questions -- about his mobility and ability to take a hit, mainly -- he still has a tight spiral. Whether or not he starts (or plays) for Woodberry Forest this year is still not clear. But reading about where the kid has been, compared to where he is now, is reason enough to call this a successful comeback. Be sure to check out the Times' full story here.

We believe success requires the incorporation of critical quality characteristics into everything we do every day. At the foundation stand those leading quality characteristics that span all quality processes, over all industries.
A Defined End Goal
Comprehensive definition of the end goal of the quality process and project is crucial to success.
Work Done Right the First Time
Rework is costly and a waste of resources and manpower. Coding Brains' quality processes focus on how to do work right the first time and get rid of from rework.
Individual Responsibility for Quality
The Individual doing the work can only do it right the first time if they are given the right information and tools when they need them. Accordingly, our quality processes focus on providing these to the individual and then holding them responsible for achieving the expected level of quality.
Verification, Not Inspection
Inspection finds problems already made. Furthermore, the verification process identifies and resolves issues before they are systemic and additional work occur over them. Therefore, our quality processes focus on the on-going verification of quality achievement and not only inspection at the end.
Long-Term Focus
Coding Brains' quality processes look beyond the creation of a product to how it is used and its long-term success.
Improved Quality Results in Lower Costs
The bottom line of all quality processes is to provide value to all stakeholders. If the process does not maintain value, then it will not be embraced and maintained.
By focusing on making quality a culture, Coding Brains has been able to establish an industry leading quality program composed of the best tools and approaches of many industry quality processes.

The device is an EXACT EQUIVALENT in functionality and parametrics to the compared device.
TI does not recommend using this part in a new design. This product continues to be in production to support existing customers.
The TPS54540-Q1 device is a 42-V, 5-A, step-down regulator with an integrated high-side MOSFET. The device survives load-dump pulses up to 65 V per ISO 7637. Current mode control provides simple external compensation and flexible component selection. A low-ripple pulse-skip mode reduces the no load supply current to 146 µA. Shutdown supply current is reduced to 2 µA when the enable pin is pulled low.
Undervoltage lockout is internally set at 4.3 V but can be increased using an external resistor divider at the enable pin. The output voltage start-up ramp is internally controlled to provide a controlled start-up and eliminate overshoot.
A wide adjustable frequency range allows either efficiency or external component size to be optimized. Output current is limited cycle-by-cycle. Frequency foldback and thermal shutdown protect internal and external components during an overload condition.
The TPS54540-Q1 is available in an 8-pin thermally-enhanced HSOP PowerPAD package.

Peeing content
Three golfers are walking down the fairway...
"Sixty is the worst age to be," said the 60-year-old, "You always feel like you have to pee and most of the time nothing happens!"
"Ah, that's nothing," said the 70-year-old. "When you're 70, you don't have a bowel movement anymore. You take laxatives, eat bran, you sit on the toilet all day and nothing happens."
"Actually," said the 80-year-old, "Eighty is the worst age of all."
"Do you have trouble peeing too?" asked the 60-year-old.
"No, I pee every morning at 6.00 am. I pee like a racehorse; no problem at all."
"Do you have trouble having a bowel movement?" asked the 70-year-old.
"No, I have one every morning at 6.30 am."
Puzzled with this the 60-year-old said, "So, let's get this straight. You pee every morning at 6.00 am and poop every morning at 6.30 am. So what's so tough about being 80?"
"I don't wake up until seven!"

As we say goodbye to 2014, we also have to say goodbye to three exceptional Board members who have completed their terms. These three women have been instrumental in supporting the Binc Foundation from the beginning. Their involvement with attending events, recruiting volunteers, assisting with technical jobs, and helping to plan a sustainable future has greatly advanced the mission of the Foundation to assist booksellers in need. It is not an exaggeration to say that we would not be where we are today without their hard work. Please join us in recognizing their vision, celebrating their accomplishments and thanking them for their service to the board of directors.
Lisa Smola-Hollo – Board President
Lisa has served her board term and will be exiting the board and Communication and Marketing committee. Lisa joined the Foundation board in 2009 as secretary, and has served as President since 2010. Lisa has generously given her time and leadership to transition the Foundation to its new mission.
Lisa has been instrumental in forming the current strategic direction that focuses the Foundation on becoming sustainable and a support for booksellers for the long-term. Lisa is always ready to volunteer and represent the Foundation to volunteers, donors and vendors. She also recruited family members, on various occasions, to support the Foundation, and we pass along our thanks to them as well. Thank you, Lisa.
Jennifer Sobocinski – Board Member
Jenn joined the Foundation board in 2010 and played a crucial role in creating the initial social media presence for the Foundation. She capitalized on her technological resources and the talents of her husband, Todd, to design and launch the Foundation website.
Many thanks go to Jenn for her commitment and leadership over these past four years. She helped the Foundation evolve from a one-company focused charity into an industry-wide organization. And as chair of the Communication and Marketing committee she provided essential guidance to ensure the Foundation achieved its new mission. We can't say goodbye to Jenn without also thanking her for her amazing organizational skills that played such a big part in the success of the Foundation's golf outing fundraisers. Thank you, Jenn.
Rianan Ozaeta – Board Member
Rianan joined the Binc board in 2011 and has served on the Fundraising and Programs committees. From her first day as a volunteer at the annual golf outing Rianan never hesitated to jump in and help out. If there was work to be done, she was right there to pitch in no matter the task. She was one of the founding board members of Binc and helped the Foundation transition to its expanded mission.
Rianan also shared her technology expertise to create easy to use online fundraising tools. Rianan's enthusiasm makes her the ultimate advocate of the Foundation, even representing Binc at a regional trade show near her home. Thank you, Rianan.
Please join the board and staff of Binc in thanking these outstanding ladies for their service.

librelp 1.2.16 [download]
This new release of librelp provides API changes that allow better handling of oversize messages, as well as defining the listener interface. In addition, a few bugfixes for memory leaks and several minor issues are included.
For more details, please take a look at the changelog below.
* add new API: relpSrvSetOversizeMode()
This permits to tell librelp how to handle oversize messages.
Traditionally (and now default), this aborts the session. We now
added an option to truncate the message instead.
Also, in case of session abort a descriptive error message is
emitted. This did not happen previously and caused confusion.
closes https://github.com/rsyslog/librelp/issues/81
* add new API: relpSrvSetLstnAddr()
It permits to set the listen address inside the relp server.
If not called, the server will bind to all interfaces.
Thanks to github user perlei for contributing it.
– support additional hashes for fingerprint mode
old-style SHA1 is used automatically
Thanks to github user briaeros for the patch.
see also https://github.com/rsyslog/librelp/pull/55
– bugfix: potential memory leak
This is very unlikely to occur in practice. Memory can be leaked
when TLS initialization fails when the client tries to connect
to the server. However, if this actually happens, it can happen
frequently and so accumulate to a large leak.
No report of such occurence from practice.
Detected by Coverity Scan, CID 266008.
– bugfix: memory leak on protocol error
Receiving relp frames are not correctly deallocated while handling
protocol errors resulting in memory leak of dirty pages.
Thanks to github user gleentea for the patch.
see also https://github.com/rsyslog/librelp/issues/59
closes https://github.com/rsyslog/librelp/issues/60
– fixed a couple of minor issues:
* fix memory leak when relp frame construction fails
detected by clang static analyzer
* removed unnecessary code
detected by clang static analyzer
* fix memory leak
This leaks occurs if the process is already totally out of memory,
a situation that is very rare and will also cuase other troubles.
So the practical relevance of this patch looks rather slim.
Detected by clang static analyzer.
* fix memory leak on relpSrvRun() error
this is kind of cosmetic, because it can only occur when the
run fails, which usually should lead to termination of the
calling application
deteced by Coverity Scan, CID 266016
* fix memory leak on relp listener construction error
detected by Coverity Scan, CID 266014, 266015
* also resolved all other issues reported by Coverity scan
* added native testbench (formerly used rsyslog for testing)
* added additional compile tests
sha256sum: 0c235dd2a01060ad5e64438879b31ae64e7640d0e262aa1a287a2dd9bc60fd53

The overall goal of this project is to understand how a soccer goalkeeper organizes him/herself to intercept a free kick shot. The object of study is therefore the subject's motion in interaction with his/her environment. As a first step, we focus on the perceptual component. The goal is to determine the nature of information collected by a goalkeeper in order to stop a ball during a free kick. We seek to formally define the information collected during the shooter's movement and ball trajectory. Secondly, we aim to identify how such information is used in controlling the goalkeeper's interception movement. To answer these questions, the subjects (goalkeepers, players and non-soccer players) execute judgment tasks and intercept balls in a virtual reality setting (CAVE). The shooter is represented by an avatar, which will allow us to manipulate motion information as well as to decorrelate his/her movement with presented ball trajectory. The subject's immersion in the environment is facilitated by creating a true virtual environment (ie a soccer stadium). The avatar motion presented to subjects comes from film recordings of shots from top-level soccer players.

Brands We Love: Petit Bateau
At Poppy we love the utility, the heritage of the120-year old French brand Petit Bateau brand, high-quality and timeless appeal. Owners Heather and Jenny's own children lived in the simple white onesies from birth and then on the wearing the simple crewneck or scalloped tees under every outfit. And for rainy days, they just wouldn't be complete without the classic must-have Petit Bateau raincoat, they are perfect in every way.

Hello! My name is Jo, but I usually go by my initials Jem. On WordPress I'm down as HyggeJem. I'm a wife, mother, Office Ninja, quizzer, reader, crafter, lover of all things comfortable and a seeker after truths. And now I'm seeking to curate a hyggelig life. I want to make sure that the things I do and the way I run my life help me to create oases (yes, that's the plural of oasis) where I can breathe, recharge and be hygge.
Big Thanks Must Go to my husband and employer Peter Kneale Solicitor. If he didn't employ me and let me sit in front of a computer, I wouldn't have the time to run my blog and the Facebook community that has grown out of it, The Hygge Nook.
How to Hygge the British Way is my blog about being hyggely, that's the Danish word for feeling safe, secure and happy with life, but in a British way. So I'll be looking at the things that the Danes (and other scandi and nordic people do) and trying to find the British equivalent. Sometimes I just talk about things we do in Britain anyway.
I write for the blog, for the Facebook page and also publish books. The book contents are completely new, not recycled blog posts. Presently, I have four books:
50 Ways to Hygge the British Way was my first book, and is available in Paperback and Kindle version. It's a simple look at ways to feel more hyggely in life and at home even thoigh we're not Danish and don't have it in our DNA.
How to Hygge Your Summer, in Paperback and Kindle form, has lots of good ideas for the summer months. I strongly believe that hygge is so much more than throws and warm drinks.
Have Yourself a Happy Hygge Christmas was released in September 2017 and is available again in paperback and ebook version. It looks at keeping the Christmas season warm and cosy, with ideas for activities and routines to keep Christmas happy.
Happier is my fourth book. It's about how I boost my own happiness levels. It's full of hints, tips and ideas for you to use and adapt to suit your own situation. It is available in ebook and paperback version from Amazon.co.uk and Amazon.com.
If you purchase anything through the links on this blog, I get a couple of pence extra per copy, and if you've already read my books and enjoyed them, please leave a review on Amazon or Goodreads.
To find your way about the blog go to the home page and scroll up and down the posts there. They're about lots of interesting things and ideas to help you hygge happily. There's recipes, books, articles and more besides.
If you know what you're looking for, try the resources menu. There are short cuts to all the posts on books, homemaking, recipes and articles. These pages get added to all the time, so keep coming back to see what's new.
And connect with me on social media!
You can find me on;
Twitter as @HyggeJem
Instagram as britishhyggejem
Facebook on my blog's page, @howtohyggethebritishway
Pinterest on my Hygge Board, https://uk.pinterest.com/angeljem5/hygge/
You can join The Hygge Nook on Facebook as well, it's a closed group dedicated to living hygge in ordinary everyday lives.
****How to Hygge the British Way Blog isn't monetised. I have taken the decision that I want to remain neutral and not to promote things just because. I will only ever review items that I have bought myself, or that I think will help to promote hygge in a busy life. To do this, I need support. Even just the price of a coffee adds up to a book over time, and it means I can stay independent. Would you help?
I have a Patreon Page that (I think) means you can pay me for products you have enjoyed. You can find me at https://www.patreon.com/hyggejem. I think you click through and then you can pay per blog post or page content. I'm still getting to grips with it, so please be patient.
If you'd rather make a one-off donation, please consider clicking through to my Paypal donation page, paypal.me/HyggeJem and leaving even a small amount. I'd be very grateful. Every penny I make from the blog and books goes towards books, films and homemaking to create a hygge home for me, the guinea pigs and the kids. Thank you.***

Chapter 59 – Insanity
Scarlet clouds blossomed. An elder took out a string of bone beads the size of goose eggs, and each of the beads sparkled with a precious light. They looked like stars flying in the sky, and power fluctuated terrifyingly.
They constructed a diagram of the stars and expanded outwards like a net, as if a river of stars were flowing. It contained a boundless aura and immediately enshrouded Shi Ziling below.
"Let me through!"
Shi Ziling shouted loudly, and his full head of black hair went crazy. With a wave of his spear, golden light overflowed the skies and trembled the heavens. Even the corners of his eyes were split apart as he cried tears of blood. For his child to suffer such a disastrous tragedy, it made his heart drip blood. Right now, he would kill whoever stood in his way!
The precious technique shocked the heavens. With a rumbling sound, he hollered out the incantations, and as if he was renouncing all deities through this chant, endless divine radiance scattered about, enshrouding this area. That diagram of stars was immediately broke apart.
Shi Ziling shouted loudly. He raised the spear in his hand, and the primitive symbols began to take shape as he rushed forward. Golden rays of light submerged everything in front of him.
With kacha sounds, the strings connecting the snow white bone beads were broke one after another. The powerful strength of the symbols dissipated into a vast body of divine light as it began to disperse in all four directions.
Many palaces abruptly flew into the air as if they were dead leaves. Under this berserk attack, they were all insignificant. Immediately after, they shattered in the air, turning into dust.
This string of bone beads was a rare and powerful precious artifact, yet it was broken so easily by the battle spear and dissipated into heaven and earth divine essence. It made all the tribe elders' hearts sore.
Stone Clan's members were all relatives of the emperor, however, even though they were bestowed the status of kings and were quite formidable, they still couldn't casually waste rare precious artifacts. The corners of this elder's mouth was bleeding, and his body was violently trembling. Many of his bones were broken, and he flew across the air before smashing into another palace. It was smashed apart, causing smoke and dust to rise.
"Ziling stop. We're all family. Don't make such a big fuss and hurt family!"
A group of elders walked out from within the dust. They were covered in dust and had bloodstains all over. There was a look of anger and astonishment on their faces. This nephew was too powerful, and he was chasing right in his father's footsteps.
"Injuring family? The Supreme Being Bone within my son's body was taken away. His life's in danger, but that vile woman's family is still living well. Doesn't that already break our relationships?!" Shi Ziling was seething with anger. The golden light over his body was flourishing even more now, brightly illuminating the sky and the earth like a burning divine flame. His voice was cold and reprimanded loudly, "Although we have the same grandparents, none of you are my opponents. Apart from that vile woman's bloodline, all of you get out; otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless and massacring you all!"
"You…" Angry looks appeared on some of the people's faces.
"Ziling, if you have something to say, say it properly. What is there that we can't sit down and talk about?" An elder advised.
"What's there to talk about? You already made the decision to protect that vile woman and leaving the casualty of this to lick his wounds all by himself? Whether my son can even survive right now is tough to say, and you guys are telling me to sit? Very well, chop that vile woman and Shi Yi apart for me!"
"Impudence, this is the decision made by over ten elders and you want to oppose it?" An elder shouted loudly with a feathered fan that was wrapped in thunder and wind in his hand. He waved the fan with all his strength, and divine thunder descended onto earth, creating endless purple rays on the spot.
"You're Shi Yi's granduncle?" Shi Ziling's footsteps basically never stopped. He was charging forward from start to finish. A long whistle sounded, and endless burning rays of electricity shot forth from his eyes like golden lightning.
Suddenly, deafening rolls of thunder packed the heaven and earth with bristles of electricity, creating a huge violent explosion.
The fan within that elder's hands bursted open. When the lightning withdrew, that entire person was burnt black and his head was smoking. Whether he was dead or alive was unknown. Afterwards, he was once again sent flying by a beam of golden light that was released from Shi Ziling's eyes. He collided into a palace, and never stood up again.
Everyone breathed in a breath of cold air. Shi Ziling was too powerful, and he was worthy of being called the genius of the generation. With these methods and the heroic appearance of a god of war, he eclipsed those of the older generation as they were simply incapable of being his match.
"Fifteenth elder truly gave birth to a good child." A few people muttered.
The fifteenth elder's prowess were rather renowned within the empire. With only two arrows, he shot down an Archaic Descendant — a Luan. Who else could accomplish this? His cultivation was world-shaking.
It was truly because of this that he dared to kill an extremely pure-blooded Pi Xiu youth in the hundred clan battlefield. Many elders of the older generation all guessed the fifteenth elder's intentions. He wanted to baptize his grandson's body with the true blood of a genuine Pi Xiu.
Right now, his son was just as emphatic and decisive. His power shocked the capital city, and none of the elders of the older generation were his opponent. Like a golden god of war, he trembled the hearts of others.
If could be said that if not for the fact that another family gave birth to Shi Yi, who was naturally born with divine gifts and the dual pupils possessed by ancient saints, Shi Ziling would inevitably be the one bearing the flag of the tribe in the future.
In actuality, even if there was a Shi Yi, Shi Ziling's family would inevitably rise in power. No one could cover up the radiance because his son was born with a Supreme Being Bone.
Unfortunately, things ended up like this in the end, and it made people want to wring their own wrists while deeply sighing.
Shi Ziling walked forward in large strides. With each step, huge cracks would be left in the ground below. It was as if a giant golden giant was moving, and nothing could stop him.
An elder shouted loudly. He held a vine in his hand, and that vine was a precious artifact created from a powerful botanical creature. It was entirely black, but currently, it was shining with luscious light.
With a hong sound, the floor of this palace was penetrated by one spirit vine after another, each of them emitting precious light. Like flood dragons, they crazily charged towards Shi Ziling to bind him.
"Such despicable creatures. The people of your bloodlines, blocking me means death!" Shi Ziling shouted loudly.
He travelled like a dragon and took steps like a tiger; his might overflowed the heavens. All the hair on his head instantly rose up violently, and every strand of hair was sparkling. Afterwards, they emitted golden rays of light like a sun god, making his entire person seem incomparably resplendent.
This thick golden hair poured down like a waterfall, charging towards the spirit vines. as if they were breaking and pulling dried up and rotten weeds, he twisted all the spirit vines into pieces and then struck towards the precious artifact in that old expert's hands.
With a pu sound, that precious vine exploded on the spot and burned into ashes. This powerful technique shocked and stunned the onlookers, sending chills and shivers down their spines.
"F*ck off!"
Shi Ziling shouted. He brandished the long spear in his hand, and with a pu sound, fresh flood splashed outwards, directly tossing up that elder right into a man-made mountain. It broke apart, and the elder spat out blood from his mouth.
"Ziling, you're turning into a demon. Stop immediately!" A group of elders shouted loudly.
"If doing this for the sake of my child makes me a demon, then today I might as well degenerate into a devil!" Shi Ziling roared. His hair madly danced as he was bathed within a burning golden light. With large steps, he rushed forward and no one was able to fight him.
He brandished his golden spear, and fresh blood spilt ten inches into the air from time to time. No one dared to stop him, since they would just be killed. This made everyone involuntarily fall back and turn pale.
"Lay out the symbols to lock this area and suppress him!"
At this moment, he had already entered the place where Shi Yi's family lived. Everyone in that family became nervous as they arranged the precious bones into a killing formation to suppress Shi Ziling.
"I'll see who can stop me!" Shi Ziling was like an unrivalled demon king. Right now the killing aura around his body reached the heavens. The light within his eyes shocked a group of elders into trembling and retreating. He looked towards them, and unexpectedly, no one looked back at him. Shi Ziling grasped his battle spear and with one step, he advanced ten feet. He fought as he advanced, and the palace his target's family lived was collapsing.
"Subdue and kill!"
The precious bones shined, and one patch of symbols after another interweaved on the ground, densely covering the air. They formed an inescapable net and suppressing Shi Ziling within.
Shi Ziling was crazy. He madly rushed into the air. Like a burning divine flame, his entire body exploded with unmeasurable amounts of light as if he was forged in gold. With his indomitable spirit, he waved the battle spear within his hands with all his might.
Immediately, the chants of heavenly deities were heard once again. Endless amount of power surged forth violently. With a precious technique that shook the heavens, he was like a divine golden deity as he swept across in every direction.
A gigantic and violent explosion occurred where he stood, and rubble flew into the clouds. Divine light was released outwards like a boundless ocean. Shi Ziling's battle intent rose into the heavens. His battle spear danced and the entire area collapsed, and all the precious bones exploded.
"All of you, die for me!"
He brandished the golden battle spear within his hands. All those who were a part of the formation flew outwards like scarecrows before toppling over. Their blood splattered everywhere. No one was able to stop him as he pressed forward with large steps.
Shi Ziling's wife carried their child. Sparkling radiance circulated her entire body as she followed closely behind the entire way.
The little guy was very bewildered. Looking at the figure that seemed like a heavenly deity in front of him, he kept extending his little hands and stretched towards it as he felt an intimacy towards it. He tried to shout yiya from his mouth, but he was unable to speak a single word.
His mother's nose was aching, and teardrops gathered within her beautiful eyes. The once spirited and intelligent child she once had now degenerated into this state. It made her feel so sad that her heart was bleeding.
"Stop him!" Many people shouted out in horror.
Shi Ziling became a demon, and he became completely insane. It made them fear that he was going to completely exterminate all of them.
"Kill him for me, kill him!"
As a king, he naturally had many servants and even more scapegoats. This family feared that Shi Ziling would come and settle his debts with them, and naturally made many preparations. A group of densely packed people rushed forth. They were all experts that had no fear of death, and like ants with the will to bite an elephant to death, they wanted to completely tire out Shi Ziling while he was alive before killing him.
Shi Ziling did not show any fear. He stuck his battle spear onto the floor and activated his most powerful precious technique. At that moment, he was like a deity they offered sacrifices to. His aura was as powerful as a saint.
A heavenly shocking sound was produced. Endless divine light bursted forth as if he stood in the center of the world. The sun, moon and stars revolved around him, and a huge vicious beast appeared, sweeping in all four directions.
A deafening beast cry sounded out. This was a world-shocking precious technique. This fuzzy Archaic vicious beast frantically wreaked havoc, and nothing could hinder its rampage. With a single drop of its claws, over ten people fell victim to the bloodbath.
This area became a scene of slaughter. That huge body was powerful and unrivaled. As it soared, over a hundred experts were quickly killed, and everyone was terrified.
This terrifying technique made people's hair stand up. With just one person, he was shockingly confronting an entire family of experts.
Ultimately, Shi Ziling himself also began to move. His entire body began to emit an unfathomable amount of golden light. He swept forward, and the remaining people all flew away as their blood splashed out.
In this short moment, the space in front of him was emptied. There was no one left to stop him, as they had all been disposed of.
"Ziling, have you killed enough and released some steam?" A group of people appeared in front of him. The one speaking was indeed the Fifth Elder. Scarlet clouds surged from his body like a noble Blood Phoenix from Nirvana, and his golden eyes were like two golden lamps.
At his side was an extraordinarily gifted child with natural born double pupils. Although he was young, his presence and calmness put even adults to shame.
After Shi Yi obtained the Supreme Being Bone, he became even more extraordinary. When he blinked, divine light circulated around his eyes. With every movement, he unexpectedly exerted a frightening and imposing aura.
He was still young, yet he already possessed such an exceptionally terrifying aura, as if he was destined to rule over every living being. He was like a deity who had just descended down into the world, looking down on everyone.
"Not enough!" Shi Ziling responded coldly. He looked back towards the little guy who had expressionless eyes. He was full of worry since the little guy was on his last breaths. With his battle spear in hand, he pointed forward and said "Unless you restore my son, a debt in blood must be repaid with blood. You people committed such malicious actions, even heaven cannot tolerate this. Since you broke my son's Supreme Being Bone, pay it back with a hundred of yours!"

I've been spending a lot of time thinking about the next step I want to take these days. For the first time in my life, I don't have a degree (mine or James's) ahead of me, pulling me along through sheer stubbornness and the need to finish what I started regardless of the foolishness of my task. I just have a little under three years and the knowledge that I'm not where I want to be just yet.
I know I want to write more, and calculate errors far less. Beyond that? I suppose I'll see.
For now, I figured I'd start a list of things I want to do while I'm still able. It may not have the urgency of a degree (or come with quite the same feeling of escape), but perhaps it'll be a worthy substitute.

Ah, Yes! Spring has arrived! And….So, too have the pot holes, the buried logs, and the washed out culverts!, all along the Aylen Lake Road. Every Spring, it's the same damn thing! It's quickly becoming an 'Annual Event!' Watching to see; Which, of the problem area's, will get repaired?, & which, will get pushed down the road? and,.. What kind of band aid, pylon solution, will the Township be utilizing this year?
All due, in part: To the overflow from the thaw, blocked culverts, and 'filled in' ditches. There are sink holes, at some culverts. Culverts', that our Works dept. just replaced!, last year maybe? This is probably caused from too much air, left in the soil. Perhaps, these should've been tamped or/rolled, and also had some rip/rap, added to the culvert's entry/exits, to avoid this. Heck, one of the culverts', has already been crunched by the snow-plow?! While other culverts, throughout the Roads' system, still need replacing!,… and still others' require gravel added, to the top cover over them.
In recent, Roads & Budget news: Works Superintendent, discussed… An engineered drawing of Alyen? (spelling?, Oh my!) Lake Road would be necessary to proceed with the reconstruction project? efficiently. (Efficiently? Oh my!)
The township will continue to work on improving drainage with ditching this year, as well as a possible increase in grader time spent improving the quality of the existing road. The ditching.. ??? Oh please!!! Every where they have ditched, or replaced a culvert, in the last couple years. These are some the worst areas!, of our road system. Certain sections of the road, are becoming a year over year/perennial expense to repair them. Like 'Log corner', 'Washout way', or 'Sheilds bump'…
Their 'Ditching' methods, make no sense? They scoop the gravel n dirt, out of the ditch,.. then place it uphill, of the ditch? Only, to have it wash back down, and fill up again! Is it a repair project?, Or,… A make work project!
Now this lil' tidbit,… Works Superintendent, discussed replacement of a township truck. He explained, the township could draw from reserves by council resolution to cover the financing requirements. Courtesy—ToSA minutes
Now, please allow me to rant a lil', here! Our Township might not have to replace the equipment, if they quit 'Whacking Stuff?' with it. Trees, Guardrails, Signs, and Culverts! All recent victims, of the Townships' equipment!
If playing Whack-em-All!, with township equipment isn't enough!, Why is the Works Superintendent, telling our Council how to purchase?, or utilize, the Townships' Reserve fund$?
Here's an Idea!,… Stick to the Works dept. job tasked!,… Looking after the roads!, and maintaining the equipment!
Then,… 'Widen' the roads, and remove the trees!, as necessary, to meet the Township of South Algonquin's, 'Level of Service' Policy (5m+/for plowing purpose). A Policy, by the way, that the current 'Works Superintendent' & former CAO, just 'Revised', August 18/2016'.
'Revised'? I'm not sure what was revised? Once again,.. was any attention paid to the Aylen lake section?, when reviewing the Policy. Here's what I found… The speed limits shown, for the Aylen lake area roads are all listed at 80kmh. Some of the roads aren't even listed? Yet, all the road signs, clearly identify 60 km/h. Just an oversight, maybe? But the remainder of the township are all listed at 40, 60, 80 kmh accordingly, pending their class. Please check for yourself, a link is provided below.
In other investigative, Aylen road reporting news….
ONTARIO REGULATION 239/02 minimum maintenance standards for municipal highways (2) For the purposes of this Regulation, every highway under the jurisdiction of a municipality in Ontario is classified in the Table to this section as a Class 1, Class 2,.. up to Class 6 highway, based on the speed limit applicable to it and the average annual daily traffic on it. O. Reg. 239/02, s. 1 (2).
Following this Reg.(239/02), it would appear the classifying of Aylens' roads, may have been done incorrectly. In the townships' Policy; The North Aylen Lake Road is listed as a class 5, while Gaffney Road, & Moonlight Bay are shown to be a Class 4. Yet, the North Aylen Lake Road, see's probably 10 times the traffic volume. Easily!… During the winter months alone, there are now year round residents, at Sheilds, Bare Rock, Chapel, and Dennison Bay Lanes. Plus, Winter time – weekenders', and Ice fisherman using the Old Farm rd, Ferndale, and Crooked Lanes. What's Up? Was it easier, to down class the road, than increase the standards? Hmm?
Let's remember this Policy, was just 'Revised'?, last August 18/2016. The new CAO may be excused here, but what about the attention to details? Where does it leave Aylen lake?… All, the attempts' at improvements', on the Road?, somehow worse after they fix them!',… Managements' review of documents?, somehow more confusing, after they revise them! We've obviously got a long road to hoe!,.. When it comes getting maintenance, or improvements, for our roads.
Township staff will continue to pursue the OCIF grant money available. It was requested that financing options be investigated as a plan to move forward develops. and still, the beat goes on…
Ah, Yes!, Spring is Here! and so are the annual road issues. Our vehicles are stressed, and the driver's too! We need our 'Road Doctor' back!, Please, Come soon, Mr. Grader Driver! You're the best! Eh! A gifted gentleman, with some serious skills for grading!, and our favorite sanitary disposal driver.
The Guy!, responsible for the fine shape of our roads after grading. He does a lot, with what he's got. Its' managements' responsibility to get him the gravel, & materials, to work with. You could kinda, call him a 'Master Grader?!', but I wouldn't. He's a Magician! and,… the Aylen Lakers' appreciate all your efforts! Thank you, Fl..yd!
In Other; Township of South Algonquin, Budget 17′ News: It was proposed that there be a 1.5% increase in the property tax levy to fund municipal programs and services which would be marginally reduced by a decrease in school tax.
And,… Maybe?, to help pay for new equipment?
In Conclusion: Some cottagers would like to see the Aylen Lake Road, 'Paved"?, at some point. Before that ever happens,…Someone, is going to have to put on their 'Big Boy Pants', and take 'Responsibility' for the current state, of the Aylen Lake Roads. Repairs, improvements, and maintenance are all needed immediately, for the long term health of our road. Safety, should be a priority for our road system.
Buying 'New' Equipment?, and… telling council, to use the Township's 'Reserve' funds, for financing?, Really?… How much new equipment is enough? The township just purchased a new grader, a couple years ago!… A grader costs how much now? Wow!
How much Gravel? How many Culverts, Guardrails, and Signs?,… could the Aylen road system receive? (or replace?), for the cost of replacing the townships' equipment? Meanwhile,… the last real 'Service', provided to Aylen Lake by the Township, is just… 'Eroding away!'
I'm just, having my say!, and keeping the world up-to-date! On 'what's happening', at 'The Lake!' Beautiful,.. Aylen Lake.
Thank you for your interest, and reading .
