"F" is for Fun Slack Integrations
Here at PieSync we love Slack. Not only is it a handy team communication tool, which has obliterated internal emails, it also has some fun non-business related integrations you can use when you've got five minutes to spare in your busy day.
Movie Night
Ahh it's Friday, you're already dreaming about which movie you want to watch at the cinema, but wait! What's on again? With this integration, you can find out which movies are showing now, and what movies are soon to be released. You'll also get a quick summary and view how popular each movie is. No frills, no spills. Does its job.
With the increasing popularity of telehealth, this integration is perfect for those of you who are short on time but need to visit a doctor for a niggling health concern. Or for those who don't want to front up to a doctor with an embarrassing health problem. Added bonus is that you no longer have to search for your symptoms on Google, only to be told that you have some terrible, certainly deadly, rare tropical disease.
Urban Dictionary Slack Bot
If you can't understand what those dang young whippersnappers are saying to you, just ask the Urban Dictionary Slack Bot! Perfect for those of you who want to "keep it real".
If you like a bit of online privacy while you're browsing the web, you're probably using Duckduckgo. You can perform web searches using Duckduckgo from Slack with the integration Rubberduck. Just type /rd and your search term.
Are you the company joker, the one who brings light relief to your colleagues grey and dreary existences? This integration is for you! You can impersonate 20 different characters within Slack. You can even create your own character, like what our company clown did with PieSync Pete:
Poncho the Weathercat
Have you ever wanted your weather questions answered by a witty cat? Poncho does exactly that! Just type /poncho and your postcode and you'll find out your weather and get an accompanying gif.
That's NOT all folks! Download "The Beginner's Guide to Slack", courtesy of the house!

Currval is session specific so it will know which is the correct one. I have tested this previously and have it in production code for over a year and haven't had any issues. My best advice is test it thoroughly.

First: Mutitable insert must use subquery.
Second initially thought of the same idea, but as from Oracle docs (look at
the last statement):
Restrictions on Multitable Inserts
You can perform multitable inserts only on tables, not on views or materialized views.
You cannot perform a multitable insert into a remote table. You cannot specify a table collection expression when performing a multitable insert.
In a multitable insert, all of the insert_into_clauses cannot combine to specify more than 999 target columns.
Multitable inserts are not parallelized in a Real Application Clusters environment, or if any target table is index organized, or if any target table has a bitmap index defined on it. Plan stability is not supported for multitable insert statements. The subquery of the multitable insert statement cannot use a sequence.
At least for 9i.

Five Excuses You Use to Avoid the Gym!
Some people don't appreciate the gymTo avoid the gym one will give the excuse that" I don't value the gym." In this one will prioritize on the things that they much value and give this excuse to avoid going to the gym. They have valued on watching the television or even spending much time on the social media with their phones.
TimingOthers give the excuse of "this is not the right time for me to go to the gym" to avoid going to the gym. Other people prefer going to the gym in the morning before any activity while others will prefer in the evening after the day's duties. Whichever the time one gives as an excuse it is aimed at avoiding the gym.
TirednessThe excuse that "I am tired" is used to avoid the gym. After the day's office hours or time at home one will say that I 'am tired and I need to rest in the house so as to avoid the gym. They'll say that let me try it out tomorrow very early so that they can prevent the gym that day.
Lack of garmentsSome will give the excuse that "I don't have the garments" or "I have washed my clothes" to avoid the gym. All this could not be true but an excuse for one to avoid going to the gym because they cannot take part in the gym without the garments.

Right in the centre of Saskatoon lies Nutana, a largely residential area that neighbours the city's central business district. The neighbourhood traces its origins back to the first permanent settlement of the Temperance Colonization Society, in 1883, and remnants of that old age include Trounce House and the Marr Residence.
Real Estate in Nutana
Due to its age, many of the residences in Nutana are historical buildings with a good portion of the development (approximately 40%) dating back to before 1945. Many of the houses here are large and rich in character, mostly because the area was once heavily inhabited by the wealthy. Keeping up with tradition, the above average price tags for real estate in this area make it a popular neighbourhood for high-income earners. It's important to note that the market in Nutana is competitive, so if you're keen to learn about your real estate options, you should talk to an experienced Saskatoon realtor, like myself.
Entertainment, Recreation, and Amenities in Nutana
Its central location makes Nutana an ideal neighbourhood. All of the city's amenities are very accessible, plus the Broadway business district and nearby shopping make it a great place for anyone who enjoys entertainment and frequenting local businesses.
For those with school-aged children, there is a French Immersion elementary school, as well as a public high school within Nutana, and the University of Saskatchewan is in Varsity View, just a short distance away. Its proximity to downtown Saskatoon is also ideal because it gives you the option of walking to the heart of the city, whenever the mood strikes you.
If you're a theatre enthusiast, the Broadway Theatre is owned and operated by the Nutana community, and is a venue for live performances. It's regarded as one of Nutana's cultural cornerstones and is a designated municipal heritage property.
Nature lovers will enjoy the more than 40 acres of land that's been designated public park space, complete with awesome views from the Rotary Park nearby. Here, you will also find stunning views of the east bank of the South Saskatchewan River. Plus, throughout Nutana, you will find recreational amenities, like basketball courts, cross-country ski trails, tennis courts, playgrounds and more.
To view the Nutana properties that are currently available, or to learn more about this exciting part of Saskatoon, contact me, a trusted Saskatoon Realtor for more than 30 years.

With over 40% of marriages ending in divorce, the battle for child custody and support are among the most common and contentious disputes heard by our nation's courts. What do judges look at when making custody and child support decisions? Do moms get an unfair advantage? What happens when one parent snatches the kids and hides them from the other parent? Should teenagers get a say in where they live? Join us on this edition of Justice Talking as we take a deeper look at family law and ask what happens to the kids when parents break up?

Supreme Court Update
In late September, we broadcast a program on
The Challenge to Assisted Suicide in Oregon
a case about the right to die that was pending before the United States Supreme Court. In the case, the state of Oregon challenged former Attorney General John Ashcroft's decision to prosecute doctors who prescribe lethal drugs under Oregon's Death with Dignity Act. The Attorney General claimed that the Federal Controlled Substances Act gave him authority to prosecute the doctors because assisted dying was not legitimate medical care. But on January 17, by a 6-3 vote, the Supreme Court held otherwise, reserving the regulation of assisted suicide and appropriate end of life care to the states. The new Chief Justice John Roberts joined the dissent. Read the full
Gonzales v. Oregon
The Supreme Court also decided an abortion case from New Hampshire, which we discussed on Justice Talking in November:
A Look at Mandatory Parental Involvement Laws
. In
Ayotte v. Planned Parenthood,
abortion providers challenged a New Hampshire law that required a young woman to tell one of her parents about her abortion decision. The young woman could avoid the parental notification rule if she got a court order, but the law did not explicitly allow the doctor to perform an abortion immediately, if there was a medical emergency. The lower court stopped the full law from going into effect because there was no medical emergency exception. In a unanimous decision, written by Justice O'Connor, the Supreme Court sidestepped any significant ruling in the case, sending it back to the lower court to see if it could fashion a more limited remedy. The Court explicitly said, it was not revisiting its abortion precedents. Read the full

An Explanation for the High Inclinations of Thebe and Amalthea
Over the age of the Solar System, the orbits of the massive Galilean satellites have expanded significantly due to forces from the tidal bulges that they raise on Jupiter. This outward motion is believed to naturally lead to the development of the Laplace resonance that currently exists between Io, Europa, and Ganymede. Is this the only signature of tidal expansion still visible in the jovian system? We propose that the anomalously large inclinations of the inner moonlets Amalthea (I=0.33o) and Thebe (I=1.09o) result from kicks imparted by Io's strong mean motion resonances as those resonances scan across the location of the moonlets. Both the eccentricities and inclinations of the moonlets are excited during resonant passages. But while the eccentricities decay rapidly due to the large satellite tides raised by the planet, the inclinations are basically preserved since they decay very slowly due to the tiny planetary tides raised by the satellite. For similar reasons, tides do not move the moonlets significantly outward. Our numerical simulations show that two of Io's 3:1 resonances can impart an inclination of ~0.3o to Amalthea when Io passes through a distance of aIo≈5.27RJ (Jovian radii). The passage of Io's 4:2 resonances across Amalthea, at aIo≈4.02RJ, would kick the moonlet's inclination by 0.6o, which is significantly larger than the observed value. Io's 4:2, 5:3, and 3:2 resonances cross Thebe when Io is at 4.92, 4.35, and 4.06 Jupiter radii, respectively. We find that either the 4:2 resonance acting alone, or in combination with the other resonances, causes Thebe's inclination to rise to about 1 degree. Our theory naturally explains the high inclinations of these two small satellites and limits Io's formation distance from Jupiter to between 4.02 and 4.92 Jovian Radii.

With the NBA Asia Challenge set to happen on September 11 at the Araneta Coliseum, the Philippine Basketball Association released its complete PBA line-up for the event. The PBA team will be lead by PBA greats Allan Caidic, Alvin Patrimonio, Benjie Paras, Ronnie Magsanoc and Kenneth Duremdes with coach Yeng Guiao as PBA mentor.
Completing the line-up are active PBA players, some are also 'Team Pilipinas' members; Wynne Arboleda, Arwind Santos, Sonny Thoss, Willie Miller, Japeth Aguilar, Joseph Yeo, Dondon Hontiveros, Enrico Villanueva, Jay-R Reyes, Marc Pingris.
Update 1! Added Asi Taulava to the PBA Team Roster.
Update 2! NBA Asia Challenge 2009 Live Stream Video!
Update 3! NBA Legends won over PBA All-Stars
Meanwhile, the NBA team will be lead by NBA stars Robert Horry, Dominique Wilkins, Tim Hardaway and Vlade Divac with NBA great Kareem Abdul-Jabbar as NBA mentor. They will be backed-up by players from the NBA Development League. Also, the New Jersey Nets' Dance Team and Nets' Mascot, Sly the Silver Fox will be on the event to add up a great entertaining show.
Since I was young, I love playing basketball and always watch PBA games and my favorite team is the 90's Ginebra composed of Marlou Aquino, Noli Locsin, Vince Hizon, Bal David and of course, Robert Jaworski. I'm also an avid NBA fan and I very much appreciate the technology today because I am able to watch video replay highlights of NBA games at NBA's website.
I want to watch this event. I even made a potential NBA and PBA head-to-head match up including some interesting statistical information about these players.

text: During Paul's incarceration, his band--appropriately dubbed the No Delay Band--had backed "soul diva" Linda Hornbuckle. Upon Paul's release, Linda formed her own band, but the two friends teamed up for this churchy duet on Paul's first post-prison CD. I co-wrote this song with Paul. Rhythm section members Mike Klobas & John Mozzacco suggested the tempo change after the modulation. Grammy-nominated pianist Janice Scroggins was also a special guest on the session, at my suggestion, and she just nailed this performance. (Our collaboration had begun on the No Delay CD.) Sadly, Janice--like Linda--is now deceased. The tune is poignant in light of Paul's premature death just eleven years after its recording, and Linda and Janice's subsequent passing in 2014.

That moment when you have to drop a deuce, it won't flush, you decide to throw it out the window…and then you get stuck in the window? THAT HAPPENED.
On a somewhat related note, in college, I was invited by a girl I had an insane crush on to come out to Montauk point on Long Island to hang out over Easter weekend, with her and some girlfriends. I went to school in Connecticut, and as I always willing to drive a ridiculous amount of miles for even the remote opportunity to have sex, I willingly hopped into my car and drove the nearly four hours to get there.
It was my crush and seven or eight girls all in a 2 bedroom motel room and in the middle of the night there was a sharp pressure on my colon. Most of the party, including myself, were all sleeping on couches, or like myself on the floor. I got up, gingerly made myself to the bathroom, was relieved the fan wasn't loud, relieved to relieve my colon and flushed the toilet.
The sound of the toilet was akin to a small, powerful jet taking off. This thing was LOUD! The girls in the living room all woke up and while I'm pretty sure there wasn't an offending smell, my fear was that the very sound of the flush bared witness to what I was doing in the can (after all, why flush, right?). I recall all eyes being on me at 2:30 a.m., slinking back to my spot on the floor, thankful for that moment at least, that my crush was sleeping in one of the bedrooms.

Gluten-free cooking is not all fun and games; I know this from my own experience and have also had it confirmed by a professional chef. It is, in fact, a challenge or a pain if one is feeling in a less-than-positive mood.
Apart from baked fare and pastas, I have never been a huge wheat user. Sauces can thicken quite happily with maize starch (cornflour), rice or tapioca flour, buckwheat flour makes a better coating batter than wheat ever could, and I have had good results with pastas made from maize and amaranth. Breads and pastries have been, and remain, the greatest challenge.
Whilst I have had some reasonable results with gluten-free bread, an attempt today to reproduce my best yet batch was a total disaster. The photograph shown here has a whisk standing in the loaf, just to show how total was the collapse. I have been fighting collapses and holes all along. The bread machine that I am using has an unfortunate habit of doing a quick stir at the end of the last rise. This would be fine if we were dealing with a dough but, as we are actually dealing with a fragile batter (think soufflé), that little twirl is enough to collapse the area immediately above the paddle creating – at best – a small void or – as found today – a total collapse of the loaf.
Only this morning, I was wishing that the bread machine could be hooked up to a laptop and be re-programmed with a gluten-free cycle. (If it weren't for my poor state of health, I have an old machine in my office that I would very much like to modify, installing my own control hardware/software.)
Software/bread cycles apart, today's disaster shows just how critical tiny factors are in achieving success with gluten-free bread. I do not know what caused today's collapse – I am weighing to within a couple of grammes, so the quantities should be about as close as they should be. Variables such as water temperature, a new batch of yeast and accuracy of temperature control in the machine could all play a part.
I am beginning to tire somewhat of never really knowing what to expect batch to batch. Bread machines are great for wheat-based breads, but less than optimal for those lacking gluten. As we are now coming into winter and it is cool enough to operate the oven, I am inclined to keep using the bread machine to do all the hard work of mixing, but to start proving and baking in the oven, where there is nothing (barring earth tremors) to disturb the risen batter at that critical time.
The second image on this page is of a gluten-free loaf mixed in the bread machine, then poured into a bread tin and baked in the oven. This loaf rose well and even looks more like bread than the normal gluten-free offerings. Unfortunately, my mobile phone has no exposure control on its camera, so this picture is the best I could produce, aided by some Picassa retouching.

Small Business Rate Relief 2017-2018 onwards
Eligible ratepayers will have their business rate accounts calculated using the small business rate multiplier, with additional relief awarded which is stepped, so that those with a rateable value of less than £12,000 may be able to claim 100 per cent relief, reducing to no relief at a rateable value of more than £15,000.
Eligible ratepayers that occupy a property in England, which has a rateable value below £51,000 will have their business rates accounts calculated using the small business rate multiplier.
All ratepayers who occupy properties with rateable values less than £51,000 will automatically have their bill calculated using the small business rate multiplier. An application for Small Business Rate Relief is not required. Where a ratepayer meets the eligibility criteria and has not received the relief they should contact the council.
The Government has also introduced additional support to small businesses. For those businesses that take on an additional property which would normally have meant the loss of small business rate relief, the Government has confirmed that they will be allowed to keep that relief for a period of 12 months.
This is provided the ratepayer continues to satisfy the conditions for relief which apply at the relevant time as regards the property and the ratepayer, they will automatically continue to receive relief in each new valuation period.
Certain changes in circumstances will need to be notified to Chesterfield Borough Council by the ratepayer who is in receipt of relief.
The changes which should be notified are:
Please notify Chesterfield Borough Council on 01246 345425 or email firstname.lastname@example.com
Any business that does not qualify will have their business rates accounts calculated using the standard business rate multiplier.
For further information about business rates see Gov.uk business rates.
What are the standard rate multiplier and small business rate multiplier?
The national non-domestic rating multiplier is the rate in the pound by which, outside the City of London where special arrangements apply, the rateable value is multiplied to produce the annual rate bill for a property. It is set annually by the Government and except in a revaluation year, cannot, by law, rise by more than the amount of the increase in the retail prices index.
To calculate the gross annual rates of a property, the rateable value is multiplied by the standard rate multiplier - a sum of money that changes from year to year. As of 1 April 2018, the standard rate multiplier will be 49.3 pence in the pound. Eligible small businesses will pay the small business multiplier 48.0 pence.
You can find a list of current multipliers on the Valuation Office Agency (VOA) website.
Who is the scheme available to?
Businesses that occupy properties with rateable values less than £15,000. From 1 April 2012 there is no restriction on the number of properties occupied if claiming small business rate multiplier only. The small business rate multiplier is automatically applied.
A further discount is available to businesses that occupy:
What happens next?
To claim relief after 1 April 2012
An application form is not required. Properties with rateable values less than £51,000 will automatically have their bills calculated using the small business rate multiplier.
How do I apply for small business rate relief?
If you believe you may be entitled to relief, please contact the non-domestic rating section on 01246 345425 or firstname.lastname@example.com

Through our newly formed partnership with the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, we have committed to the responsibility of bringing support from not only the South Asian population, but also America' s collegiate community. As students on our respective college campuses, we see a rich atmosphere that serves as a medium in which a small message from one fraternity can become a movement, nationally as well as globally.
A daunting task as it may be, we the brothers of Delta Epsilon Psi are committed to preserving the mission of our predecessors in the fight against Type 1 Diabetes because of the personal connection that every brother has to this philanthropy.
The run will be Saturday April 5th!

Strange as it may seem, sometimes the best job transitions start with a good, solid freakout. You know the kind: panicked breathing, crazy hair, fetal positions, and awkward conversations with yourself.
We often categorize these moments as bad–but when it comes to moving your career forward, they can be very, very good. As a veteran of freakouts ranging from: "Should I take this promotion?" to "Should I leave this job?" to "Is it time to start my own company? What the hell am I doing?" I've learned that the best decisions I've made have happened as a direct result of them.
Let me explain.
First, Freaking Out Shakes You Up
Often it's not until we freak out about something that we truly recognize its value to our careers. For example, there was a long time when I was working as a consultant (wearing a suit every day!) that I knew I wanted to start my own company. Despite knowing this, I could not seem to make myself leave.
And then my company started layoffs. For a while I was on the team deciding who was getting pink-slipped, but it quickly became clear that if we continued the way we were going, one day my job would be gone as well. So, I decided to panic. But I didn't just panic, I full on lost it. I went through all the stages of grief, denial, and worry about paying rent (coupled with a ton of time in the fetal position), and then I realized this might just be the shakeup that I needed.
For a long time, I'd wished for a sign that would give me the courage to leave, but the safety of my job was holding me back from seeing the signs I so desperately waited for. But with that safety net of regular paychecks potentially gone in the very near future, I realized that I had nothing to lose, so I might as well leave on my own terms. This was my sign.
Freaking out forced me to face my fears about leaving, confront what was really behind them, and realize that quitting my consulting career was what I had wanted all along. Yes, it was scary, but I learned that it wasn't so much the salary I was scared to lose, but the security of staying on the beaten path. And by acknowledging that, I could get past the idea of taking a short-term paycut to go after my dream and instead focus on the fact that I could create a totally new path for myself. One that actually made me happy.
And Then It Moves You Forward
For a long time in my consulting work, I felt half asleep because the work no longer really interested me. I was going through my daily routine without paying much attention to anything, and I started to get worried that I'd wake up 10 years down the road doing the same thing, wondering what had happened to my life. Of course, all of that changed when I seriously started to think about starting a business on my own and became paralyzed with fear. I was terrified, lonely, worried, and yet weirdly, I had never felt so alive.
I realized then that I had a choice: I could sleepwalk through my life and take no risks, or I could push myself and take a leap of faith. I decided I wanted the unknown, because the known was no longer working for me. Of course, wanting more forced me to address the question: "I'm freaking out about really doing this–what do I do?" and actually build a plan around it.
When was the last time you proactively created a concrete plan for your career? Most people have a vague sense of what could be next, but they don't give themselves the time to really think about how they'll get there–especially if it's not just a step up on the ladder at their current company.
For me, my panic helped me build an exit strategy that gave me a little bit of breathing room and a financial cushion for my new business. I needed both my initial freakout about getting laid off, and the subsequent one about starting my own business to get me to where I am now. And where I am now is where I'd dreamed of being–I run a successful coaching business.
The moral of this story is that next time you freak out about your career, I want you to pat yourself on the back, because you are one step closer to that next great thing, and that is pretty amazing. So take a deep breath (literally: Harvard research suggests this can only help you) and rather than allowing yourself to stay in fetal position forever, ask yourself: Why am I stressing out? And how can I use this feeling to power me forward?
While it may be tempting to give in to the panic, it's important to first ground yourself–that's where breathing techniques come in–and then figure out what your next (exciting!) step will be. You got this.

We show that the spatial decay of plasmons in a periodic metal-nanoparticle chain is composed of exponential and power-law decays. Our results show a high level of similarity between the absorptive and radiative decay channels. By analyzing the poles (and the corresponding residues) of the generating function for the lattice Green's function, we explain the details of the spatial decay profile. We also present an analytical formula for the decay profile.

Hefner Documentary Intrigues, but Rarely Critiques
Hugh Hefner: Playboy, Activist and Rebel stands as a corrective to the caricature currently on display courtesy of the E! network. The ageless playboy's life is far more interesting than what you see on his reality show The Girls Next Door. Hefner played an active role in the civil rights movement, the sexual revolution, and changing the culture at large, all of which is captured with vigor in this entertaining bio-doc.
Yet those who prefer he hadn't had such influence get little attention here. Hefner is a glowing biopic, one so enamored with its subject matter that it turns even his peculiar social life into a positive. Who knew living with multiple girlfriends was a sign of having a big ol' heart?
Hefner began as a circulation manager at a kiddie magazine, but he wanted to create a publication that would speak to the modern man -- or the man he hoped to be. The name Stag Party sparked a brief legal hiccup, so Hefner settled on Playboy as the magazine's soon-to-be-iconic name. He found quick success despite the sexually repressed mindset of the 1950s. He used his newfound clout to start up his own television show, Playboy's Penthouse, and created other offshoot projects like nightclubs and jazz festivals.
Along the way he ran through cultural walls regarding sexuality, race relations, and birth control. He embraced black comics before the mainstream did, and used his nightclubs as race-neutral centers for adults to kick back and relax.
Hefner himself is interviewed throughout the documentary, narrating his life story with a combination of wonder and self-admiration. Watching him turn the pages of his personal scrapbook shows he cares about historical markers as much as Playmate bra sizes.
We get precious little on Hefner's formative years, though.
"He didn't get hugged enough," opines Star Wars creator George Lucas, one of many Hefner chums making an appearance. Hef's massive coterie of famous friends and supporters, from Jim Brown to Tony Bennett, do fill in some blanks. Others, like James Caan, seem forever grateful to Hefner for assembling so many gorgeous woman in one place -- the Playboy Mansion.
The film trots out a few feminists to complain about Playboy Nation, but they seem overmatched -- or realize Hefner long ago won the cultural wars. Radio talk show host Dennis Prager appears to tut-tut the benefits of Hefner's sexual revolution, but the moments are so brief as to be insulting to Prager and anyone who might agree with him. It's hard to believe the filmmakers couldn't find a few ex-Playmates or gal pals with unkind comments to make about the man known simply as Hef. The segments involving his multiple marriages would have to get much tougher to rise to the level of the "softball" treatment.

Kyiv: Saint Sophia Cathedral with Related Monastic Buildings, St. Cyril's and St. Andrew's Churches, Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra (T)
Martina Ruckova Slovakia - 10-Feb-19
There are three most sacred places for Russian/Eastern European Orthodox Christians to visit: Sergiev-Possad Lavra, Mt. Athos an Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra, lavra being the highest in the hierarchy of the Orthodox monasteries. We visited this one on our road trip from Slovakia through Hungary and Romania to Ukraine, to see Chernobyl and some other sites in 2012 - the early stages of our WHS travels where we basically looked at what was around and visited that. We saw the lavra with my classmate from Oxford, Kirill, very religious person, so that added another layer to the whole experience.Read On
Martina Ruckova Slovakia - 28-Nov-18
According to everything we've been taught at school, Vlkolinec is a gem and a true beauty of Slovak rural architecture. One of the places you have to see, one of the treasures of our cultural heritage. As you can probably guess from my star rating, I don't share the enthusiasm. Sure, the village is nice, it has been inhabited for a very long time and the architecture, though a bit bland is truly typical of what you will find on other Slovak villages. A tiny museum, a gift shop cum small gallery, walk up and down, you can reach some hiking trails from the top of the village. Or arrive by car from Ruzomberok, there's a parking spot by the village and a short hike couple of hundred metresRead On
Aggtelek and Slovak Karst
Martina Ruckova Slovakia - 28-Nov-18
To me, the caves of Aggtelek and Slovak Karst are the best WHS we have and I'm very proud of it. Depends of course on the cave you visit, but if you had been born, let's say in Eastern Slovakia, you would have visited most of them by the time you've finished your compulsory school attendance. Summer is the best time to visit, when there's a season. Most of the caves are closed off for winter, one or two are open. I would recommend visiting the Domica cave, either from Slovak or Hungarian part. Hungarians have it opened all year round and are much more accomodating than my compatriots are, I am sad to say. There's an underground river you can ride and you will cross border and the interior decorations are pretty. Another stunner is Dobsinska ice caveRead On
Martina Ruckova Slovakia - 27-Nov-18
Byblos is one of the towns that, along with likes of Jericho, Damascus, Plovdiv and Athens claim to be the oldest continously inhabited cities of the world. As far as Lebanon goes, it's the easiest one to visit, a chilled under-an-hour drive up north from Beirut. Well, as long as you won't get stuck in traffic jams, that are especially painful in the evenings (we enjoyed them on our way back). The town is very touristy and milking its potential to the last drop. There's a free parking spot that's well signposted, or, if you fancy yourself very lazy, you can make use of the vallet parking right by the entrance, we spent about 3 euros on that.Read On
Martina Ruckova Slovakia - 27-Nov-18
Save it for the last if you can, because not only is Baalbek the most stunning WHS of Lebanon, but even after couple of hundred sites visited, many many Roman ruins included, it still blew our minds and exceeded all our expectations. Just wow.
Baalbek site, located inside Baalbek, the administrative centre of the Bekaa valley and one of the places you wlll be advised against travelling to in Lebanon, contains spectacular ruins of Roman temples of Bacchus, temple of Jupiter and temple of Venus. They were built on a magnificent scale, 23 metres high, with columns 2.2 metres in diameter. The sheer scale of everything is mind-blowing. I enjoyed climbing on top of one of the large Corinthian-style column head. Another awesome thing, you can walk around, climb wherever you want, without some nasty local guard whistling at you to shoo away (greetings to Delphi). There are two museums on-site: one in the medieval tower and another in an underground tunnel on your way backRead On

My heartless parents finally came back from their Orlando vacation. I was already upset with them for abandoning me. To make matters worse, not only didn't they buy me any treats, they brought back a gift that I really do not like - A tee-shirt. -_-
Here's a little background first. My mummy bought a set of THING 1 & 2 shirts 2 years ago when we visited Orlando (I went along too!).
Here's a shot of us - Mummy = Thing 1, Sam (ME ME!) = Thing 2 and Poor Daddy = Thing 3. That completely explains the hierarchy of the family as well.
I was obviously still a cute puppy then. Hence after two years, I've completely outgrown that shirt (as shown below). It's just too tight fitting and considering that I do not have the bod of an A&F model, I looked pretty crappy.
That's how short it is now. Too sexy for my liking.
So, my brilliant parents thought that the best souvenir for me would be a bigger version of the exact same shirt. *Faints*
Well, on a good note, it's an excellent fit now.
BUT, I'm still pissed that all I got from Orlando was this crappy shirt.
I'm not forgiving them and I'm expecting TONS of treats for redemption. Grrrr...

Wall cracks not only prevent your basement from being dry, but it also weakens the structural integrity of your home's foundation. Filling all your basement wall cracks help in waterproofing by preventing water seepage through your walls, and because epoxy is waterproof and strong, this prevents further cracking and keeps your basement walls' durability.
- Interior Drain Tile, Sump Pumps, and Battery Backup Sump Pumps. During heavy rains, storms, and snow meltdowns, no one knows what a dry basement is if you haven't got a waterproofing system. Interior drain tile, sump pumps, and battery backup sump pumps is an entire waterproofing system that works hand in hand in case your basement has more than a leakage issue. The interior drain tile directs the water from a perforated wall and into a sump pit. The sump pump in that sump pit will then automatically pump that water away from your home. And during extreme storms, those when you experience a power outage, the backup battery sump pump will make sure that your sump pump is continuously working to keep the heavy rains from flooding your already dry basement.
- Leaky Basement Repair. After a substantial rain, you can never be sure if your basement is safe from mold, mildew, and water as water can leak through your basement wall, floors or other cracks and spaces to find its way into your home. This is frequently caused by flowing rainwater can build up and get stored, causing pressure on your home's foundation. This is most especially annoying because you never really know what is causing the leaks into your basement or where it is coming from. The great thing is that at Arrow Foundation Repair, we make sure to fix the problem right from the source.
- Waterproofing Membrane is a technology designed to seamlessly cover your walls and floors through adhesion, to make sure no water gets through the inside of your home. It is commonly made of polyurethane that expands and contracts as the weather and temperature changes throughout the year. Thus, it is designed for long-term durability, providing a cost-effective answer to a quality waterproofing foundation, vertical walls and below-grade floors.
Arrow Foundation Repair offers basement waterproofing services at reasonable price points. We guarantee quality service and customer satisfaction to Kansas City homeowners. Stop stressing yourself with your leaky basement. Call us at 913-722-91011 or 866-797-7437 and let us discuss how to keep your basement dry all year round!

I am thinking about buying a pipe rack or cabinet. I don't want to display all of my pipes but would like a 6 to 10 pipe rack for resting pipes while I am at home. I want something fairly small to medium size to sit on a table or dresser. I would love to find something made out of Walnut or Cherry. I haven't seen anything that I really like yet but have just started looking today. If anyone would like to show off their rack or cabinet to give me some ideas it would be appreciated. Since I don't have one I will start with a pic of this vintage rack(with an awesome placard) I saw on eBay.

In October, Jonathan and i did what we love to do most of all: took off for a new place to meet each other all over again. My brother Thom was studying in Prague for the semester and it was the perfect opportunity both to visit him and to explore a new crook of the world.
If you read my interview over on Viscera Stories, you'll know that one of my favorite parts of travel is finding that the mundane is made new all over again. It's also in that newness that i find myself meeting people i've known for years for the first time again. Seeing Thom, my younger-but-taller brother, expertly navigate a city in an entirely new language to him (Czech) and participating in his life as an adult was a real treasure.
Old Town Square, all lit up at night. I loved the Astonomical Clock best, where on the hour the "Death" figure tolls the bell and the apostles process in the windows of the clock. It is, admittedly, mildly underwhelming; a Brit next to me blurted out: "Is that it? I'm off for a pint!"
Jonathan and i had some days to wander about by ourselves while Thom had class. We tried to find a monastery, and wound up in a nunnery, which felt prophetic. Loreta, built like the one in Italy of the same name, to honor the alleged brithplace of Mary. [Don't question the Italian distance from Nazareth]. We had the cloister to ourselves, and every chapel was dedicated to Mary or another woman saint. I wept. We finished the afternoon with the above view and a cup of tea and a long chat with our waitress where we taught her North Carolina English slang and she gently corrected our frenetic Czech attempts at ordering the cheese plate.
Prague was also clearly a city reeling from communism; Thom was strict that we were not to speak on the trams, to stay quiet in restaurants. There was a joviality between friends, but not an openness to strangers. Religious iconography adorned almost every building, but then there were layers of grimey graffiti around the edges.
You cannot go to Prague and not at least walk to the Jewish Quarter – a once thriving part of the city, now full with ten times more more tourists and tombstones than Jewish inhabitants. Remnants of a not-so-long-ago genocide.
There are numerous famous sites to visit, but we decided our hearts could best handle a long time in one place, and i was most intrigued by the Spanish Synagogue.
All the architecture and design is done in a style similar to Islamic art in Spain and Northern Africa – interlocking patterns, calligraphic Hebrew verses, and no images of people or prophets. All the descriptions were in Czech, but the piles of tefillin stripped from faces and mezuzah ripped from doors all now piled behind glass cases told the story well enough.
Prague is often described as the new European hotspot; it's extremely affordable (seriously, the amount of beer consumed for the pittance of pennies spent) and rich in a complicated history. On the one hand, there's all the color and warmth of Central Europe and the Mediterranean, but on the other, there is the brooding undercurrent of Easter Europe's communist history. It is a city coming to know itself all over again. Which is the epitome of traveling together, for me. My husband, my brother and i met between buildings of saints and sinners, over goulash and pizza, we met again for the first time and talked as old friends.
Have a beer in a local micro-brewery. Slash, have a beer with every meal. It's cheaper than water.
Try goulash or, if you're brave, point randomly at the Czech menu and smile. This game of mine has not always paid off (anchovies over cooked carrots in Spain – blech!) but in Prague i wound up with a potato-onion pancake with brie melted inside. Aaah-mazing.
Visit Loreto, the nunnery on a hill overlooking the city. Quiet, less touristy than the main squares, and very affordable. You do have to pay for a photography pass.
Pay for the pass to see the inside of the Saint Vitus Cathedral at the Castle. The stained glass is breathtaking.
Meander in the Jewish Quarter, but try to go when the crowds are lighter (early in the morning) to give the place the time it deserves. Don't plan on doing anything fun after.
Walk across the Charles Bridge at sunset, when the vendors are closing up shop and the tourists dispersed. You'll have time to look at the statues then, and the Vlatava river sparkles as the city lights splutter on.
Avoid: Wenceslas Square, if you can, unless it's a date memorializing the Velvet Revolution. Otherwise, it's an overpriced and overcrowded Times-Square-esque thoroughfare. Also, beware pickpockets and try not to talk on the trams.
Highly Recommend Miss Sophie's Hostel for cleanliness, location, and unbelievably kind staff.

Imagine paper-thin handkerchief-shaped pasta, perfectly cooked al dente, firm but delicate bites bathed in a sweet tomato cream sauce flavored with fresh pesto and spiked with a dozen fresh shrimp.
Welcome to Sorella, the newest Italian spot in Hartford courtesy of well-known restaurateurs Billy Carbone and Dan Keller.
Carbone and Keller brought downtown Hartford the popular upscale dining spot DISH, as well as the more laid-back restaurant Dish 'n Dat in Canton.
And though the two could have sat back on the reputations of their successful twin dining ventures, they are finally parents to the kind of restaurant they have dreamed of owning.
"We have always known an Italian restaurant was something we wanted to do," says Carbone about the Main Street eatery that boasts a truly Italian menu, including authentic Neapolitan-style pizza made fresh in a specially imported brick oven. "We knew we wanted to do something that Hartford did not have when it came to food. We have always wanted to extend what we do in the kitchen and on the menu and this is it."
A hint of what the new restaurant has to offer begins as soon as you walk through the door of the place that once housed the short-lived club and restaurant Zula.
Center stage is the impressive and 900-degree Italian pizza oven where a pizza maker is busy turning out thin-crusted pies that range from the traditional, including the tomato and mozzarella Margherita to the "create your own" with topping choices including pancetta, stracciatella, meatballs, anchovies and artichokes. Specialty pies include the Diavola with spicy soppresata and hot cherry peppers; the Ham & Eggs with farm egg and Mystic Melville cheese; and the Iverno with butternut squash, pancetta and brussel sprouts.
And about that pizza dough.
"We make it with Italian Caputo flour," said Carbone about the dough recipe that boasts strictly authentic ingredients.
Carbone and Keller saw the potential for yet another one of their distinctive menus, and the offerings do not fail.
Sorella sets the mood in its lunch and dinner menus with such categories as "carne," "formaggio," "mare," "secondi" and "alti." There are cured meat and cheese selections, as well as the expected as well as both vegetable and seafood antipasti choices. Appetizers include veal and ricotta meatballs and veal sweet breads, while salads choices include the Quattro Colore with raddichio, endive, arugula and dried cherries; and the Roasted Pepper with charred eggplant and pine nuts.
Housemade pasta choices include orecchiette with pork sausage and broccoli rabe, fettucini carbonara with guanciale and reggiano parmigiano, and chianti papparadelle with braised veal osso buco ragu.
Then there are entrees such as veal marsala; chicken piccata; steak pizzaiola with wood-fired peppers; and zuppa di pesce, an Italian stew with market fish, clams, shrimp, calamari and more.
Desserts are Italian signature dishes including gelato sandwiches, tiramisu, ricotta pie and a deconstructed ice cream sundae with gelato, toasted almonds, and chocolate sauce topped with a jigger of hot espresso.
Pizzas begin at $10, appetizers at $5, entrees at $18 and desserts at $7.
But Sorella is bringing more than good food to Hartford.
The owners will also be presenting the city's first open rooftop dining and socializing lounge.
"We have the city approval we need and we are working on it now," said Carbone. "We expect to have it open when warm weather arrives."
Carbone admits there is a lot of running back and forth between Sorella and DISH, which is conveniently located directly across the street. But Sorella is in good hands with executive chef and former Peppercorn's chef, Joe Keane.
And as far as the two restaurants competing with each other?
"It's actually a nice way to cross-promote the two," said Carbone, noting the different menus, décor and tone. "The two offer two different dining experiences and something for everyone."
Sorella, 901 Main St., Hartford, is open Monday through Saturday from 11:30 a.m. to 11 p.m; and Sunday from 4 to 10 p.m. information: 860-244-9084 and sorellahartford.com

Such a day it was going to my oncologist appointment today. The event has filled me with so much frustration it makes me want to laugh. At this point I have no confidence in my oncology team.
Ultimately this is alright, in the scheme of things I believe all of this was supposed to happen. I don't believe in predestination, but I believe we have experiences set before us to discover new gifts.
The gift I've been given has been my journey of cancer. To witness how much more difficult cancer can become when your oncology team continuously drops the ball. In my journey every new piece of information has been beyond each step's projected worse case scenario. This has trained me to expect the worst, I am no longer shocked when a situation is worse than my doctor's expectations.
Today's frustration
Today peaking with my oncologist I asked why he didn't want to use the Netspot kit? His response was that Netspot wouldn't be effective in finding my neuroendocrine tumors.
Dear goodness I was filled with so much frustration at this moment. His statement when compared to the FDA's website paints a very different story. To summarize, it says that the Netspot kit is used specifically to find NETs.
I knew I couldn't push any further with the idea, so I changed gears. I asked him to refer me to a nutritionist. He was shocked by the very idea that I would want one, so shocked that he thought the idea was silly. Apparently it was beyond him to think that perhaps after (or even during) my chemotherapy that making changes to my diet could improve my health.
From where I am standing, going over what he has said to me, it makes me feel like he knows very little about my cancer. I can't tell you how frustrating this is. This is terrifying, right now I am questioning whether the treatment he prescribed me was even appropriate.
The Positive
The positive of all this is I now have a great perspective of the cancer journey. I have seen where the holes are in the treatment of cancer. Take for instance my own journey, after the removal of my lung no one suggested any kind of physical therapy. No one explained to me the details of what a NET is, what I could expect from it or how it could impact my life. There wasn't even the mention that maybe I should seek out an oncologist who specializes in Neuroendocrine cancer. As my own devil's advocate I know that I should have been my own health advocate. Its hard to be strong like that when it all starts. Right now I find myself wondering how any could possibly expect that out of anyone?
Now I am looking further into my own treatment, I am searching for a team that specializes in NETs. I will find someone who will listen to me, someone who knows about the cancer that I have, someone who has the skill to treat it.
If you would like to learn more about my journey through cancer and how this moment impacted my quest for person advocacy feel free to click this fancy link.
