When you load a website in your browser, a lot happens in the background to render and display that website to you. Your computer makes a number of requests, one for each file that is somehow linked on the site. This can be images or multimedia contents for instance. Whenever a file cannot be retrieved because it does not exist, a 404 not found error is created for that file in the log. This may not affect the person loading the website, but it very well may provide the webmaster with information that something is not working correctly.
There is another case where 404 errors happen. When you enter a link into your browser or a program directly that is not existing. This may be an image that you want to load, a feed url or any other form of link that points to a non-existing element on the web server.
The primary reason for analyzing error logs is to resolve all, or at least the most popular causes for errors. If you notice that half of your users want to access a page that does not exist, you may want to redirect them to an existing page instead, and especially so if that page has been moved or is available under a different address.
Once you have created the redirect, users are automatically passed along to the new resource. It is barely visible for them.
Too many broken links and elements can also have a negative impact on a site's search engine rankings. It is likely that the quality score sinks when a certain threshold of broken links and pages is reached.
For WordPress, I like to use the Redirection plugin. It basically records all 404 not found errors in the interface, with the option to redirect those requests to other pages on the site.
All requests that returned a 404 not found error are listed on one of the log pages of the plugin. Here you see the date the requests took place, the requested page, the referrer if available, and the IP of the user or machine that made the request. A click on the plus icon at the end of the row adds the source url to the redirection form at the bottom of the page.
You then need to enter a target url – that is the url you want the visitors to be redirected to – to complete the process. While it is possible to use regular expressions or customize the matching and action filters, it is nothing that needs to be done to create the redirect.
But there are other reasons why you may want to check the error logs regularly. I'd like to share two examples.
I noticed lots of requests for apple-touch-icon-precomposed.png and apple-touch-icon.png in the logs that tried to load the images from the root directory of the site. I first thought it was a misconfiguration of the mobile theme and plugin, but found out later that Apple devices make those requests if the device owner adds the site to it. This is the equivalent of the favicon. The issue was easily resolved. I took the Ghacks logo, modified it to fit in a 100

Kindergarten is a formative year for families, as kids acquire the foundational skills they'll build on for a lifetime (and parents learn the value of healthy home habits and encouraging independence). Here are some handy tricks and tools to help your kindergartners — and you — get ready for the school year.
Arm kids with soft skills. Ease your kids' entry into the early days of their educations by helping them develop and refine essential "soft skills." From encouraging them to get along with others to supporting their ability to self-regulate, these six skills are important building blocks to having a successful school year.
Nurture responsibility. Time-management tools can motivate kids and help them develop responsibility, organization, and independence. There are lots of handy apps to help keep kids on track, and even designed to help little kids with morning routines.
Share stories about school. Lots of kids are excited about stepping into their big-kid shoes for kindergarten, but the transition isn't always seamless. Sweet stories about kids going to kindergarten and funny back-to-school movies can soothe and entertain nervous students — and their parents.
Skip the back-to-school buying frenzy. Don't turn your kindergartner into a walking advertisement. Learn how to avoid the rampant marketing and consumerism of the back-to-school culture. And when you shop for school supplies, consider stocking a backpack for a kid in need or organizing a school supply drive — you can teach your tot about sharing while you're at it.
Get involved. Take an active role in your children's early education. Talk to the teacher about your kids' challenges, as well as the activities at which they excel. Help at home by sharing educational tools designed specifically to enhance pre-K skills. Fun apps and games can offer an extra boost to nurture young interests and developing social-emotional skills — and kids won't even realize they're learning.

Ian Bitmead's late equaliser earned Holwell Sports a deserved point on Saturday against an in-form Dunkirk side unbeaten since Christmas.
Holwell had been given an unexpected free scouting opportunity when Dunkirk played at Welby Road in midweek, winning the League Cup semi-final against Aylestone Park.
Holwell settled well, looking to take advantage of the wind at their backs, but control was difficult.
Hibbitt got his head to a floated free-kick to bring a good save from keeper Mitchell, while Tinsley also tried his luck from 30 yards, spotting the keeper off his line, but his shot went just over.
The hosts were winning possession well from their more fancied opponents, but poor control in the last third let them down.
Dunkirk used a high line, with keeper Mitchell deployed as a handy sweeper, but the conditions dictated play with both teams playing high up the park and compacting the midfield.
Holwell went closest on the half-hour when Hibbitt again headed down strongly from Chapman's cross, but Mitchell turned the ball away at full stretch.
Chapman's long-range effort brought another good save from Mitchell, while Jamie Witham kept Holwell on level terms with a great save low down to Smithson.
Holwell were rewarded for their endeavour four minutes before half-time when Dunkirk keeper Mitchell's weak pass to his left-back fell short and Tinsley slammed the ball home.
But Dunkirk were level just a minute into the second half when Tom Berridge picked the ball up from the restart and was allowed a free run into the box. And with no challenges as defenders backed off, he poked the ball under Witham.
Dunkirk had their tails up and were quickly in front when Luke Smithson picked the ball up on the left and threaded a shot around Ridout and past an unsighted Witham into the left corner.
In seasons gone by Holwell would have fallen apart, but it was testament to the improvements made under manager John Webster this season that they rolled up their sleeves to get something back out of the game.
For most of the second half Holwell looked the more determined and the likelier scorers as the gusts spoiled the game as a spectacle.
Holwell pressed for the equaliser in the last 10 minutes and piled on the pressure which Dunkirk struggled to handle.
Brad Smith went close on 85 minutes and with a minute to go, the hosts got the goal that their second half reaction merited.
Witham sent a free-kick long from his own half to the edge of the box where Bitmead controlled, turned and slotted the ball under the advancing Mitchell.
Holwell: Witham, B. Smith, Ridout, Bitmead, Woodcock, Chapman, Hibbitt, Stevenson, Harris (Hazeldine), S. Smith (Foster), Tinsley.

As has been noted, even if most users know *what's* going on, they either don't care (because it ain't causing them problems), or caring doesn't matter (because it *is* causing problems but no amount of implementation knowledge will help them). The goal of the book is help folks use Subversion, which includes helping them know what to expect of it. This way, when something they suspect is wrong occurs, the book can help confirm or deny that suspicion. To that end, a sidebar about some of the things folks might see (such as copy/move creating mergeinfo, mergeinfo appearing on files that weren't really touched, a glossed-over explanation of elision) would be a great thing -- it helps them know they aren't seeing bugs or using the tool incorrectly. And if the sidebar also helps folks learn best-practices for avoiding the nastier situations, double bonus! -- C.

Drea's Review:
I received this book via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
The university's housing department has sent a male as the fourth roomie for Taylor's dorm room. Hunter is the hot bad boy every girl hates to love. But Taylor can't let him weasel his way in, no matter how many cute songs he writes for her. Not with a past like hers.
I adore books where the hero and heroine are at odds in the beginning, including wonderful verbal sparring. This book definitely had a heroine who was at odds with the hero, but he was very rarely at odds with her. The sparring wasn't particularly clever and it was a repetitive format: Hunter makes a lame innuendo or outright pass at Taylor, she sputters and lashes out—rinse and repeat with the occasional escalation to physical violence on her part. The repetition went on far too long (for a good 70% of the book).
Based on the number of reviews on Goodreads, it looks like this was self-published first with very favorable response. I don't really see the draw. I realize many people read for the escapism experience, but I prefer my contemporary romance to at least have the grain of truth to it. This contemporary romance reads as a fantasy simply because the hero is simply too perfect, even with his troubled past.
That said, it flowed quickly, mostly because the book was primarily made up of dialogue. The romance is sweet. I suppose it's believable, I mean what girl wouldn't eventually fall for the perfect Hunter? And the ending was nice. I may have wiped away a tear or two.

My home energy bills keep going up — and I don't imagine I'm alone. But in addition to the usual solutions like "turn down your thermostat" and "switch to compact fluorescent light bulbs — or better yet, LEDs", I've discovered some high-tech tools that help save energy — and money.
The Department of Energy estimates that a home energy audit can cut your bills by as much as 30%. But a professional audit can cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars. So what can you do on your own?
First, do a visual inspection of your crawl spaces. When I had a professional energy auditor come to my house, the biggest efficiency loss they found was from heating ducts that had separated. In many homes, they find areas in the attic or under the floor that aren't insulated at all. Nothing that you can't discover and fix for yourself.
But I promised high tech tips. So here you go:
Infrared Thermal Leak Detector
An infrared thermal leak detector costs $40 and will find leaky, drafty areas that could use some new caulk or weather stripping, or even identify hidden "soft spots" in your insulation — places where insulation is missing or has settled in your walls or in other hard-to-see areas. Sure, you could walk around and feel for cool spots with you hand, but a good gadget is way more fun — and more accurate. This tool also works for hot spots in the summer; places where a lack of insulation allows air-conditioned cool air to leak out.
The "Kill-A-Watt"
Your electric bill can tell you that your costs are going up, but it can't tell you which appliances are really to blame. Plug the "Kill-A-Watt" in between your appliances and the wall to find out how much each of your devices is really costing you. Then you can compare that number to published numbers for new appliances, to figure out how much you could save by upgrading to a more energy-efficient model.
Using the Kill-A-Watt, I found that my 15 year-old fridge uses about two kWh per day. A new one would use about half that. If I replaced my fridge today, I could save about 40 bucks a year. For me, that's too long a payback period, but you could easily discover that you'd save 100 bucks a year — then it starts making sense.
Programmable Thermostats
Even more than your refrigerator, heating and cooling probably take the biggest chunk out of your home energy dollar. While better insulation is almost always worth the money, here's a much cheaper idea: With a programmable thermostat, you can set your heater or air conditioner to take a break when you're asleep or out of the house, and turn back on just before you get home. A bare-bones model costs about $25; you can install it yourself; and it could pay for itself in a single month. The new NEST programmable thermostat, designed by the original designer of the iPod, is a bit pricier. But you can control it from a smart phone, and it even programs itself.
Smart Power Strips
Leaving your home entertainment system devices on all the time can add up to $67 a year of wasted energy. The energy-saving Smart Strip senses when you turn off your TV, and will simultaneously shut off your peripherals.
And I know I should turn off the power strip under the desk to thwart the vampire energy suckers, or at Christmas I know I should go out and turn off the lights, but I often don't. Enter the remote control power strip. Click, and it cuts the juice.

Robert Sabuda is a "Master Paper Engineer." I never knew such a vocation existed, but I do know this: he can make a wicked pop-up book.
Here are three we have in our house, never mind that I've since determined that introducing collectible pop-up books into my household before my baby is a little older was a little ill-advised.
Pop-up books and four-year-olds don't mix.
Aslan! I love the drama of these books.
Have you read "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe?" Have your children?
I'm in love with C.S. Lewis.
These books are so detailed, you almost can't believe what you're seeing.
Someone tell me what kind of creature Mr. Tumnus is. Quick!
A twister starts…twisting. Literally, twisting in the book.
I want to be a master paper engineer when I grow up.
Sabuda uses all white stock to bring the different regions of America to life.
And the result is pretty powerful.
Here's the reflecting pool in our nation's capital.
And here is a rare moment of political commentary.
No hidden meaning intended. It's just the mood I'm in.
I attribute it directly to hormones.

A vanished father. A pill-popping mother. Three sisters harboring shady little secrets. When the large Weston family unexpectedly reunites after Dad disappears, their Oklahoman family homestead explodes in a maelstrom of repressed truths and unsettling secrets. Mix in Violet, the drugged-up, scathingly acidic matriarch, and you've got a major new play that unflinchingly—and uproariously—exposes the dark side of the Midwestern American family.
Poignant Emotional Journey by heatherkapp
Friday, November 17, 2017
The first thing noticed was the set design. It has some of the classic Lionheart elements, but used in such an educated and creative manner. It feels as if we are transported into the home of Beverly and Violet and serves many different elaborate purposes of the show. The direction is expert at navigating the many actors in each scene in and out fluidly with natural movements and logical progression. That is NO easy feat. The incredible directing continues with little nuances of character, dynamic, and blocking. There was not a single weak link in this cast. Brian Jones and Amy Szymanski brought something unexpected yet incredibly refreshing to their characters. I have a devoted adoration of this script and loved their interpretations of the characters. Jeff LeCraw brought life to a character that takes quite the courage to execute. In my humble opinion, the standouts in this were Sarah Tracy and Rebecca Knoff. Sarah channels Barbaras edge, grit, and humanity in a way that is so befitting. I was shocked to find out she is not yet a veteran actor! Her delivery was exceptional. She said things in a cutting and swift way to pierce your very heartstrings. You could feel her tumultuous inner struggles, and her deep emotional wounds. Rebecca Knoff playing Violet was scary good. Her disposition brought out the intricacies of the character, without losing the relationships that are so important in the script. Watching Rebecca on stage was like watching a famous artist create a masterpiece. She created an elaborate life of a character who is much unlike her own self. Her rage was captivating; her love was palpable; her confusion was heartbreaking. Each new emotion of Violet translated emotionally to the audience until you couldnt help but find yourself feeling whatever Violet is feeling in that moment; wanting to help her, and wanting to scream at her all simultaneously. What an incredible performance and show. One of the best plays I have ever had the pleasure of attending. [POST A COMMENT REGARDING THIS REVIEW]
Taking the "Fun" out of "Dysfunctional"by playgoer
Tuesday, September 19, 2017
Director Myrna Feldman's director's notes in the program for Lionheart's "August: Osage County" state that the dysfunctional family dynamics in view are "infinitely relatable." I take issue with that statement. To some people, they are relatable. Take in evidence the man in tears after the first act of this three-act play. Things obviously were resonating for him. Not for me, though. The people we see tend to the grotesque and monstrous, so it's not surprising that the three sisters of Tracy Letts' Weston family are eager to complete their escape from Osage County, unlike Chekhov's three sisters who yearn for an idealized Moscow they'll never see. About the only relatability I experienced was in the assumption of somewhat clueless sister Karen (Emily McClain) that her parents loved all three girls equally. With the scarcity of love in evidence in the Weston clan, that may not be far from the unpleasant truth.
Tanya Moore's set reuses the basic bones of the design that has been used for the past several Lionheart productions: we have the same staircase, two of the same doorways, and even what appears to be the chafing dish recently used in "Clybourne Park." The only structural changes are stage left, where we have an angled wall containing a window and the suggestion of a porch. It all works very well, though. The set has been decorated to suggest different portions of the house, and air mattresses brought downstage work just fine for bedroom scenes. Gary White's lighting design helps delineate different acting spaces, and Bob Peterson's sound design meshes seamlessly into the action.
Myrna Feldman has blocked the action so that sightlines are uniformly good. The second act takes place around a dining table seating nine people (with two others at the children's table), so there are inevitably some backs to some sections of the audience, but there is enough spacing between backs to allow viewing of plenty of faces. Scene changes flow smoothly, and there's enough variety of movement to maintain visual interest. Fine costumes, assembled by the cast, add to the visual appeal.
Ms. Feldman has gotten the most out of her cast. Performances have been molded to mesh believably, allowing the unsavory plot to unfold before us in all its horrifyingly destructive dysfunction. For the actors I've seen before, their performances in this production rate among their best. That's one of the hallmarks of superior direction. Rebecca Knoff does a splendid job with Violet's slurred, almost indecipherable (except to her) utterings, and Brian Jones's impassioned speech as Charlie hits home with all its intended force. Even newcomers make a good impression. Grace Jones, in her Lionheart debut, makes teenager Jean a totally natural, believable person.
Otherwise, casting is a little off in terms of ages. Outside of the prologue, the men seem to be about the ages referenced in the script, but the supposedly middle-aged women appear far younger. That gives a slightly "off" feeling to the proceedings. There are also some other "off" elements: the facts that Katie Bates' Ivy seems to have downcast eyes consistently when facing the audience and that the four-letter filth issuing forth from Barbara's mouth doesn't sound altogether natural in Sarah Tracy's speech patterns. (Blame Tracy Letts for that; not the expressive Ms. Tracy.)
The play doesn't start altogether well, with Allan Dodson's turn as Beverly not the boozy tour-de-force it needs to be. Christina Simms' nearly silent Johnna shares the prologue, bringing quiet dignity to the role and adding subtle movement to underline certain moments. After the prologue, things start sparking along, with Amy Szymanski's Maddie Fae bursting onto the scene with unbridled energy and venom. The laughs come frequently in the early sections of the play, with the tone darkening and souring as the action proceeds. These aren't people we'd like to encounter in real life, but they can be tolerated for three hours. And most people, I daresay, will embrace the production rather than merely tolerate it.

Gut and digestive health is all the rage at the moment, with products springing up all over the place advertised to help heal your gut. I have recently become more aware of my digestive health and one of my aims over the next 6 months or so is to try and improve it so that my gut works at its optimum. I picked up a few products the other day that I wanted to try to to see if they could get my digestion on point. One of which was chicken bone broth from the lovely ladies at @boroughbrothco. It is all natural, no GMO, no additives or preservatives bone broth and is delicious. As much as I wanted to just slurp it warm from a mug I decided to try and be civilised and make some yummy ramen with leftover roast chicken I had in the fridge.
Ingredients: Serves 2
- 2 nests of Egg Noodles
- 100g of leftover Roast Chicken
- 1/2 Red Chilli (deseeded if you can't hack the heat like me)
- 1 inch knob of Ginger
- 2 Eggs
- 1 Pack of Chicken Bone Broth (about 350g)
- 50g Tenderstem Broccoli
- Start by shredding your chicken from the carcass and setting aside.
- Next peel your ginger and finely dice along with your chilli.
- Boil some water in a saucepan and cook the broccoli for about 7 mins – once cooked remove the broccoli keeping the water in the pan.
- Add your eggs to the same pan and boil for 6 mins (keep them in longer if you like them hard boiled).
- Bring a second pan of water to the boil and cook the noodles according to the packet instructions.
- Once your eggs are cooked, heat the bone broth in a separate pan adding 150ml of boiling water, the chilli and ginger.
- Once the noodles are cooked, drain them and add them to the bone broth along with the broccoli and chicken.
- Serve into bowls and top with your boiled egg and a sprinkle of coriander.

If it's within the state you are licensed in, you can draw a "consultation fee" on any type of real estate transaction. It can be a separate agreement. Brian Dapice Keller Wiliams Commercial
A consultation fee may be a creative way of circumventing the fact that TIC investments are classified as securities and a securities license is necessary to obtain a commission or referral fee. Never tried this before. Remember that "like kind" is used in section 1031 in a very broad sense. The fact that the property is an investment property will often suffice, i.e. selling multifamily, buying land, office, retail or industrial.
Let me address both points you mention in your question. Firstly, TICs and replacement property are not mutually exclusive concepts - your client can purchase a like-kind property in a TIC while maintaining their IRS Code Section 1031 Tax Deferred Exchange requirements. Secondly, since your client would be replacing one (fractional) property for another (fractional) property, commissions and referral fees are very much possible in the same way as non-fractional property transactions. As an example, we offer up to a 20% referral fee to any broker that refers a client that participates on our TIC acquisitions.-Karim(619) 813-5809

The blog as an induction tool
Posted by emmakimberley on 4 September, 2009
It has occurred to me over the last few days while I've been finding my feet in a new job that the blog is incredibly useful as an induction tool. I've enjoyed reading through previous posts and getting a sense of the history behind various projects. It has also given me an idea of who is interested in what, and especially who might be interested in some of the areas my post as Research Forum Facilitator will work to develop.
Here is a very brief overview of what I'll be doing up in the Graduate School Reading Room. I'll be working to facilitate a physical and virtual research forum that will support postgraduate researchers in general, and PhD students in particular. I'll have a stand up in the reading room, from which I can act as a point of contact for referral to any services they might need, as well as maintaining an online presence. Over the next couple of months I'll be involved in the exciting new project of setting up a Graduate Media Zoo. I'm also very interested in doing anything I can to smooth the way for doctoral researchers over what can be a difficult few years. This will include using web 2.0 technologies to encourage social and academic networking as well as general problem sharing!
I'm looking forward to talking about web 2.0 with you all… and of course reading more of this valuable resource which is a great help to newcomers!

Pleased to hear you found the blog useful in this regard – when we set it up I kinda advocated it as a knowledge based resource – or rather it would be the more we add to it. Nice to know that a 18 months on it really does fulfil that role. I just wish we could persuade more of our own staff to read it on a regular basis, at times I suspect we have more external readers than internal ones!

Every year on June 13th in Padua, there is a massive celebration for the Feast Day of Saint Anthony; the Patron Saint of Padua. Franciscan, Saint Anthony was born in Lisbon Portuagal in 1195 but he died in Padua. He is the most celebrated followers of St. Francis of Assisi and is usually shown holding baby Jesus.
He is one of the most adored saints in Italy. I even named my son after him. Most of the Catholics I know pray to him if something is lost. The basilica of Saint Anthony, designed by Nicola Pisano in Padua, was completed in 1231.
His bones and tongue are preserved inside a special chapel with magfiicent statuary by Sansovino and Falconetto. The basilica has many cupolas and spires on the roofline.
In the piazza in front of the Basilica, there is an equestrian statue of the Venetian general Gattamelata. It was cast in 1453 by Donatello. Near the statue, visit the 13th century St. George Oratory and the 16th century Scuola di S. Antonio with frescoes by Titian.
I love the Prato della Valle, a fabulous elliptical square with 78 statues of famous citizens. The statues are displayed in two rings: an outer ring and an inner ring. Some of the statues were destroyed by Napoleon.
After you visit the Basilica, have lunch and some local Prosecco at Zaaro with an entrance near the Prato della Valle. Then make sure you have tickets to see the Scrovengi Chapel with Giotto's fabulous frescoes.
Visit the church of San Gaetano (1574–1586) designed by Vincenzo Scamozzi, with an interesting octagonal plan.
Stop at Caffe Pedrocchi where you can find the Risorgimento museum.

Check fraud is a major issue in the United States. A 2014 JP Morgan study for the Association for Financial Professionals stated that 82 percent of firms who had experienced attempted, or successful, fraud activity were victims of check fraud. There are a few ways to determine if a check is fake and ways to protect yourself from check scams.
Feel the Edges
Most checks will have one side that is perforated or rough. If all four sides are smooth to the touch, the check may have been fraudulently printed from a computer. While it is now possible to print legitimate checks in-house with specialized magnetic ink and blank card stock, the absence of a perforated edge is one of the most easily recognized signs of fraud.
Bank Logo and Address
If the check has no bank logo or it is clearly faded, that is a sign of a fake check. Also, if you are concerned about the validity of the check, verify that the address listed is recognized by the issuing bank. Many times, fake checks will only list a Post Office Box number or will list an incorrect street address or ZIP code.
Video of the Day
MICR line and Check Number
The figures along the bottom of a check are the routing, account and individual check numbers. They're in a Magnetic Ink Character Recognition or MICR font. These numbers should look and feel dull. If the numbers seem too shiny, the check could be fake. Also look at the check numbers on the bottom and the top corner. With real checks, they will always match.
Verify Routing Number
All checks should have a nine digit routing number along the bottom identifying the banking institution. If there is no routing number, or the number contains more or less than nine digits that should raise a red flag. You can verify authenticity of a routing number with this handy tool from the American Bankers Association (ABA).

Are Bully Sticks Safe For Dogs?
Bully Sticks are completely safe and a healthy alternative to other dog chews out there. Unlike manufactured dog chews, our bully sticks are single ingredient and highly digestible. Rawhide for dogs is still the number one selling dog chew in the US, and we hope to change this because of its poor safety record. Rawhide is extremely difficult to digest by dogs and often becomes lodged in dogs' intestines when trying to pass it. This is why unlike many other vendors either online or offline, we won't carry it….not even one piece. If you are a new Best Bully Sticks customer, be assured that we test each and every product that we sell and each and every product undergoes a thorough new-product testing panel. We are here to operate a successful family business, but your pet's safety is of paramount concern to us. Simply put, if we wouldn't give or use a product with our dogs, we will NEVER present it to you.

These "premium" speakers are only obtainable by purchasing the upgrade packages that include them, which often adds over $3,000 to the cost of a new vehicle! Contrary to their name, these audio systems are by no means even close to premium. Built using extremely cheap parts such as untreated paper cones and cloth surrounds, these speakers are very sensitive to moisture, tearing, and deterioration.
On the right we show what a baseline aftermarket speaker from DD Audio looks like. Built using quality parts like heavy duty, yet lightweight, coated cones and compressed rubber surrounds, these speakers are built to sound amazing and last a very, very long time for a fraction of the cost!

"For where your treasure is, there also will your heart be."
Matthew 6:2
A tithe is the gift of 10 percent of what we earn, given to God. The tithe includes all our gifts to the poor, as well as our offering to the church. Tithing is biblical, beginning when Abraham gave the priest, Melchizedek, a tenth of what he had (Genesis 14:18-20). Tithing was consistently practiced throughout the Old Testament.
Jesus talked about money all the time. He knew that love of money was an obstacle in our relationship with God; money can dominate our thoughts and hold our hearts. Jesus said: "Take care to guard against all forms of greed" (Luke 12:15). He explicitly addressed tithing and commended it (Matthew 23:23). Jesus then raised the level of giving in an astonishing manner by praising Zacchaeus for promising to give at a 50 percent level, and the poor widow who gave at the 100 percent level.
In the Acts of the Apostles, we hear how the early Christians "....had all things in common; they would sell their property and possessions and divide them among all according to each one's need." They gave 100 percent; above and beyond the 10 percent tithe.
We invite you to consider tithing. If giving 10 percent seems overwhelming, start with percentage giving. First figure out what percentage you are presently giving. Include your offerings to church plus all your gifts to other charities. Try to increase that amount by 1 percent (or even ½ percent). Each year try to increase the percentage you give and you will soon be tithing.
The rule of thumb for tithing in our diocese is to give 5 percent to your parish, 1 percent to diocesan collections, and 4 percent to other charities that touch your heart.
"For where your treasure is, there also will your heart be." Matthew 6:2

There are 3 things I love about Pariya:
1) They keep the food simple but delicious
On entry you make your way to the cafeteria style counter and pick your choice of rice, one main, one salad and a side. On the day I went to Pariya the choices included a delicious Korean pork salad, prawn spaghetti, hokkien style noodles, roast vegetables, and Mexican salad to name a few. 1200 yen later you take your tray with 4 little plates to the communal dining table where you can enjoy a meal with your friends (or if dining alone, you can still feel like you have friends).
2) Dessert is the star
You cannot help but notice the gorgeously decorated cup-cakes and colourful gelato as you enter Pariya. And trust me, it is as good as it looks. Ask the friendly staff if you can try a few flavours, and pick your favourite. At only 200 yen for a cup, it's almost criminal not to have desert. As they say in Japanese, there is always room in your 'betsu bara' (separate stomach). I opted for the Berry and Rose flavour, but dying to get back and try the Avocado gelato!
3) Self-service all you can drink
One thing which often bugs me about cafe's in Tokyo is that a cup of coffee can cost as much as the meal. Pariya let's you choose your choice of soft drink, coffee or tea, hot or cold and drink as much of it as you want!
The perfect weekend brunch time location.

>Diablo III: KBMOD's First Impressions
It is finally here. The Diablo III beta is live.
And this game is good. Really good.
First, this isn't going to be a class rundown article, just general impressions of the game. Let's start with the nitty gritty: the technical side of things.
The system I am running it on:
AMD Phenom II 965 Black Edition overclocked to 3.85 ghz
8GB of G.Skill Ripjaws DDR3
2x Radeon HD 5770 in CrossFire
7200 RPM WD Caviar Black 750 GB HDD
This hardware is well above the minimum specifications. Loading up the game was quick. The title screen is a simple log-in screen and a lot like World of Warcraft, but seeing as how everything is tied to Battle.net, this is no surprise.
Graphically, the game looks great, but not in the Crysis sense. As with most Blizzard games, it won't blow your socks off graphically, but they do serve a purpose. No one creates atmosphere like Blizzard and once again, they succeed here. Just look at the dark blues and grays. The eternal night of Tristram and its surrounding areas are perfectly illustrated.
The graphics settings here are high, except for shadows. Any use of AF or AA was actually disabled in this build. We won't really know how taxing the game is (or how great it can look) until then. I will say with ground clutter on full and everything on high, I was staying at 60 frames steadily when I wasn't recording. I used VSync due to the recording, and it was running at 45-60 FPS with Fraps on. If you have a mediocre system, just tone some settings down and you'll be fine. Running the game in fullscreen windowed mode resulted in instant alt-tabs and no performance loss.
So you can run the game, but how does it play, you might be asking? First, let's talk about the controls. It follows the same simple model as Diablo games of the past. You left-click to move, right-click to cast a secondary spell. Left-click is also an attack if selecting an enemy. You can also eventually bind keys 1-4 to skills. The 5th slot is for potions. Shift holds you in place so you can attack from a stationary spot. Simple, straightforward, smooth, and responsive (if not carpal tunnel inducing).
So what has changed from Diablo II? Not much, thankfully. Obviously the graphics and engine are updated and fresh, but the same hack-and-slash gameplay is present. The few differences from Diablo II are all positive though. First, the inventory. You can hold a lot more equipment. Nothing takes up 8 or 10 slots of space anymore. The most I saw was a 2-slot item. There is also no need to go back to town mid-fight either, as you eventually get a cauldron that lets you turn items into gold on the run.
Gone also are town portal scrolls. You get a Warcraft-like stone to portal back to town. This is also more convenient and doesn't take up valuable inventory. Thirdly, there are now crafting skills for use with your Nephalem Cube. The Horadrim are apparently long gone, but there is no shortage of cubes here in Tristram. I haven't delved into crafting much at all, but you can disenchant magic items much like in WoW. You then use these materials to craft.
In a very welcome change, the story leads you through the game rather than you blowing by it, as you did in Diablo II. Quests mean everything in this game. They mark where each game starts; no longer do you just start in a fresh game unless you choose to. You choose to start the game at a certain moment in the storyline each time. By default, it will start at the quest you left off at, but you can choose to go backwards or forwards for item farming purposes. If you die, the game has checkpoints it will revive you at. You can choose to be revived at a checkpoint or to be sent to town. You don't appear to lose XP, at least not on easy, just item durability. No more insanely long corpse runs for no good reason.
The skill trees are probably the biggest revamp in the entire game. I won't delve into specific classes here. You start with 2 special skills right away, and you will need them. You no longer start out with just auto attack. Your wizard will not be hitting stuff with his/her staff. As you level, you unlock more skills without training them or having to do a talent tree. At specific level intervals, you unlock another skill slot to use, up to 6. You can fully customize the play style you want or what you might need for an encounter. You can change skills at any time. All this caters to the new player, is more forgiving, and helps you to learn the class.
In the 2 hours or so I got to play, I am very satisfied with where the game is going. I also like that with a high end machine, once the full graphic options are in, it will look amazing. There are even physics for kills. Enemies don't just lie down dead. Bodies go flying and blood is everywhere.
Very satisfying when you make a kill.
My only gripe is that there were too many lulls in the play. I felt like there should have been hordes of enemies coming at me. For now we can chalk that up to beta pacing for a level cap and the difficulty not being tweaked yet.
For a hardcore Diablo player, it is very satisfying to be playing a new Diablo game. There are many clones, even some that do it well, but none give you the feeling this game does. It's only a beta, and already I feel back at home in Tristram.
Stay a while and listen.

31 Jul Wow, is it really the end of July?
Where o where has time gone? Oh well, it means bottling and harvest are that much closer, so…who cares!? As Mick Jagger once sang, "Time is on my side, yes it is."
Instead of the time gone, we concern ourselves with grapes, wine, & fun…and we've had it all this year! In the (fast) first half of the year everything has been fantastic! After a challenging but good 2011 vintage, 2012 looks to be gang busters. Copeland Vineyard loves the heat, we love the heat, you love our heat, and the four dogs love the A/C. Wine wise, bottling of our very exciting 2010's is on the horizon and then…HARVEST!! We at Two Mountain may sound a little masochistic, but starting in September we live for harvest! The valley smells great, it's busy, it's hectic, and it's extremely gratifying sharing the culmination of a year's work with all of you.
So visit the sights, sounds, grapes, and wine of the Summer & Fall at Two Mountain and in the Yakima Valley…before time runs out and winter arrives. Looking forward to seeing you!!

I'm beginning to entertain suspicion that the Mar and Korina's well-publicized romance is a political strategy motivated by personal ambitions of both.
It is not wrong to dream Malacanang. Mar has not sinned for selling and driving anything he could just to dine with fellow political dreamers in Malacanang for six years (Assuming that the 1987 Philippine Constitution is not changed or amended).
Korina has not sinned for being 'so' ready to get her lion's share of power in Malacanang.
I never care whether Korina loves Mar or Mar loves Korina or both loves each other. It's senseless to talk about it. It's their personal life. But when both use their romance to advance political ambitions, I begin to suspect that everything is scripted. It seems I am seeing a PR manager at play.
It seems Mar Roxas is taking advantage of Korina's popularity. And now, it seems to me that Korina is beginning to take advantage of her profession as journalist to promote the interest of Mar Roxas.
If I were asked to rate the credibility of Korina when she hit the present administration and the politician's with ambition, I would say Korina got 3 out of 10. Whether Korina honestly does her job or not, her credibility is already tinted. Of course, people will suspect that Korina is hitting someone to promote her Mar.
When Mar and Korina appeared in noontime TV show, Wowowie, to announce their engagement, the more it becomes clear that the two are taking advantage of their romantic undertakings.
In Philippine society politics and love marry and conjugal governance is common.
With all the indicators, the politics of Mar and Korina's love affair can turn to conjugal governance if people get fooled.
Do we really care if Korina loves Mar? We don't. But we care when an over-acting love story lead conjugal ambitions to Malacanang. Who said Mar can lead us to change? No. Mar is just another traditional politician. But less desirable.

USPTO Issues Patent for UAI's BI-TT Connector™ Technology
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: October 14, 2016
USPTO Issues Patent for UAI's BI-TT Connector™ Technology
SPRING, TEXAS – Unmanned Ad-Hoc Industries, Inc. (UAI) is proud to announce the BI-TT Connector™ quick connect technology has been issued a patent by the United States Patent and Trademark Office on October 4th, 2016. Traditional threaded-pipe connections require multiple people using heavy tooling such as pipe wrenches or tongs and a come-a-long. Longer tools require personnel to be elevated above ground requiring additional safety precautions. The UAI BI-TT Connector™ technology allows safer assembly of the tool string by eliminating the need for the heavy tooling and multiple elevated people. A single operator using a single Allen wrench can makeup and lock the connection saving time and money. Operators have benefitted by as much as 80%-time savings on each connection where utilized when compared to traditional connections. For more information about the BI-TT Connector™, visit http://www.globaluai.com/down-hole.
James D. Coker, UAI's Downhole Product Manager said,
"UAI recognized there is a danger and time loss associated with makeup of traditional threaded connections, and sought to reduce those risks. The BI-TT Connector™ technology is very compact and able to be installed on any of the BHA components during non-critical time while laying on the deck. During BHA assembly we utilize the quick connect functionality of the BI-TT Connector™ to reduce the chance of injury while tools are hanging vertically on well-operation time. It's a win-win by making the operation safer and faster."

Sharon Village 40 Ft Singles – A close-up look into the Grimsby
- Sharon Village
- Jan 13, 2015
- 0 Comments
With the year-end approaching, this is an exciting time for us as we now know that by July, we'll be a family of 4 and although we may not be living in our new home, our custom house will be nearing completion and we'll be calling Sharon Village our new home. The anticipation is getting everyone so excited, it may have something to do with the holidays around the corner, but new changes ahead are creating lots of eagerness amongst Greg, Emily and the rest of the family. Moving from Toronto allows us to use the equity from our condo sale toward out new house so now that we're not dealing with starter models. I'm just in love with the 40 foot single options at Sharon Village.
The Grimsby model offers a two-car garage with 4 bedrooms in just over 2800 square feet. A covered porch brings you to a roomy foyer with a powder room and closet, adjacent to a transitional area featuring an optional coffered ceiling overlooking the staircase and living/dining room with 2 windows and also with a coffered ceiling option. Toward the back of the house there's a large kitchen with a centre island and a sizable breakfast area overlooking a grand family room with fireplace flanked with 2 windows and optional detailed ceilings.
The upstairs features 4 large bedrooms and 2 bathrooms including a small linen closet. The laundry room is positioned off the garage on the main floor in this model, but it's just at the bottom of the staircase on the way to the basement so the flow works for me. The master bedroom is stunningly appointed with 2 windows on each end, optional coffered ceilings, a large walk-in-closet and beautiful 5-piece master bathroom. The second bathroom features a double vanity and offers lots of space.
This is an impressive model and I'm really excited to take a look at the rest of the 40 foot single models in the Sharon Village community.

Retweeting is a social way of acknowledging that someone's tweet has value and should be shared. When you see a tweet you like from one of the people you're following, you can re-send that tweet as a "retweet". The old way of doing this is simply to copy and paste their message and add "RT" plus their Twitter name @cherylktardif, then the message.
But Twitter has created a new automated Retweet feature. Most people seem to like the ease of this new feature, but many don't like that they can't add a personal comment to the message. The Retweet feature allows for no editing or adding of text. But that's also a plus as you don't have to figure out how to edit someone else's tweet to make the old "RT @cherylktardif" lead in fit.
The advantages to having one of your messages retweeted by a follower is that your message then goes out to all THEIR followers. Like the old shampoo commercial, "and they tell 2 friends, and so on and so on..", your tweet goes viral.
So here's how you now retweet using the new feature:
- You see a message on your home page (which shows tweets from those you're following) and you know all your followers should see.
- Retweet it by hovering over bottom right of the individual message. This activates the Reply link and the Retweet link.
- Click on "Retweet".
- A message pops up asking: "Retweet to your followers?" Click "Yes".

Curly, Problem?
I am not going to start saying that "I used to hate my curly hair.", "I used to straighten my hair all the time." Because, NO. I have always loved my curly hair Occasionally, I like changing it a little to blow dry or make it a bit less curly, more wavy It took me a long time to actually realize what is necessary for my curls. After reading articles, watching numerous YouTube videos, I have tried bunch of products. It has been a little fortune that I have spent on this objective. And now, here I am to share the result with you guys. Ready?
Step by Step
- First of all, curls love moisture. There should be at least an oil and a leave-in conditioner to use after every shower. If your hair is dry, it is really hard to style your curls and keep its good quality.
- Shampoo and conditioner is really important. It is better if you use the ones without paraben and sulfate. Mostly, I try to use the natural based ones. My conditioner is also Bumble and Bumble leave-in-conditioner as it is a customized one. You can use it to cowash your hair. (cowash in curly girl's dictionary is to wash your hair just using conditioner after once washing with your shampoo.
What do I use?
- At the end, styling is our last step. Regarding that, it is really important to keep your curl shape while you are styling your hair. To get to know your curly type and to use the specific products according to your curl type is the key formula to get best curls! My curl type is 3a-3b. I will write down the products that I use. For everyone it might depend on what kind of look they want to get. Basically, I like my hair a bit fluffy, messy looking.
What do I use?
P.S Don't forget to love your curls today!

Definition of Data Model According to Hoberman (2009), "A data model is a way of finding the tools for both business and IT professionals, which uses a set of symbols and text to precisely explain a subset of real information to improve communication within the organization and thereby lead to a more flexible and stable application environment". A data model is an idea which describes how the data can be represented and accessed from software system after its complete implementation. It is a simple abstraction of complex real world data gathering environment. It defines data elements and relationships among various data elements for a specified system. The main purpose of data model is to give an idea that how final system or software will look like after development is completed. Types of Data Model Following are the types of Data Model, 1. Hierarchical Model 2. Relational Model 3. Network Database Model 4. Entity Relationship Model 5. Object Model 1. Hierarchical Model Hierarchical model was developed by IBM and North American Rockwell known as Information Management System. It represents the data in a hierarchical tree structure. This model is the first DBMS model. In this model, the data is sorted hierarchically. It uses pointer to navigate between the stored data.
2. Relational Model Relational model is based on first-order predicate logic. This model was first proposed by E. F. Codd. It represents data as relations or tables. Relational database simplifies the database structure by making use of tables and columns. 3. Network Database Model Network Database Model is same like Hierarchical Model, but the only difference is that it allows a record to have more than one parent. In this model, there is no need of parent to child association like the hierarchical model. It replaces the hierarchical tree with a graph. It represents the data as record types and one-to-many relationship.
This model is easy to design and understand. 4. Entity Relationship Model Entity Relationship Model is a high-level data model. It was developed by Chen in 1976. This model is useful in developing a conceptual design for the database. It is very simple and easy to design logical view of data. The developer can easily understand the system by looking at an ER model constructed. In this diagram, Rectangle represents the entities. Eg. Doctor and Patient. Ellipse represents the attributes. Eg. DocId, Dname, PId, Pname. Attribute describes each entity becomes a major part of the data stored in the database. Diamond represents the relationship in ER diagrams. Eg. Doctor diagnoses the Patient.
5. Object Model Object model stores the data in the form of objects, classes and inheritance. This model handles more complex applications, such as Geographic Information System (GIS), scientific experiments, engineering design and manufacturing. It is used in File Management System. It represents real world objects, attributes and behaviors. It provides a clear modular structure. It is easy to maintain and modify the existing code.
