A Full DASH
GRAND RAPIDS — What a difference six years has made.
Back then, Parking Services had to offer free rides just to entice downtown workers and visitors to try the DASH park-and-ride shuttle service. But this year, it's tougher to buy a seat on a DASH bus than it is to most concerts.
"In 1999, we were giving away DASH spaces. Today, we're 99.9 percent full," said Pam Ritsema, parking services director.
DASH made its first run in May 1998 with eight periwinkle blue shuttles and two routes: DASH West and DASH South. The shuttles are still periwinkle blue, but the buses now total 11 — with new, improved versions due any day. And a route has been added since DASH made its first trip through downtown.
DASH to the Hill is a partnership between Grand Valley State University, The Rapid and Parking Services that loops through downtown from the GVSU Pew Campus to the university's Cook-DeVos Center for Health Sciences.
"We're as efficient as we can be," Ritsema said of the system, which has an operating budget of $600,000.
Each of the 1,500 monthly spaces in the DASH West lots was sold as of last month. Only 54 monthly spaces were available in October on a monthly basis in the DASH South lots, which offer 469 parking spots.
What this means is that more workers and students are active downtown today than six years ago. In fact, economic activity in the central business district has risen greatly just in the last three years, when monthly parking is factored into the analysis.
In October 2002, there were 5,768 monthly parkers in the city's downtown system. But last month there were 6,482, for a three-year gain of 12.4 percent.
Thirteen of the city's 21 ramps and lots were full last month and weren't accepting any new monthly parkers. And for three that had monthly parking available, each had fewer than 20 spaces to lease. Overall, only 548 monthly spaces were available in the system; 356 of those were in the Ottawa Fulton ramp and the Government Center ramp beneath Calder Plaza.

Time and Brevity
by Michael Corrao
Now, I've grown older than my mother and father. When we sit and have dinner together, they pull out the chair for me and do the serving. I don't sleep a lot, so I think that made everything move a little bit faster for me. I remember our birthdays slowly closing in on each other. When I turned ten, they turned thirty-five; when I turned twenty, they turned forty and when I turned thirty they turned forty-two. We met up at forty-five and had coffee together.
"I don't know what I'm supposed to do," I said. My mother had arranged the date and set the table and made the coffee, so when I arrived I only had to sit down and wait for them. When we talked, they were holding hands—my dad was rubbing his knuckles against the table and my mother was looking at the coffee pot. "I tried to go to bed earlier, but it made me wake up earlier. I thought I just didn't need as much sleep as everyone else, but I don't know."
"You shouldn't already have bags under your eyes," dad said.
"It's because I'm tired."
"Don't get out of bed when you wake up, just lay there and wait or close your eyes and take deep breaths or listen to white noise," mother ran her hand through her hair. Wind pushed against the shades, giving way to pockets of sunlight that formed blotches around the room. I pulled the bowl of sugar cubes close and dropped one into my coffee.
"We've tried all of that," I said.
Dad nodded, "he's right. What if we can't do anything about it? Maybe this is just how things are supposed to go for you: they just move a little quicker." He glanced over at mother—who was glaring at him, "we could send you to a doctor and maybe get you some insomnia medication. It might help slow things down for you. I'm not sure though." Mother nodded and walked into the other room while we sat and waited, occasionally looking at one another. The breeze pushed a little harder. Dad took out one of the sugar cubes and placed it on his saucer—where he slowly dissected it with his fingernails.
Mother returned with the house phone. She set it down on the table, "what doctor do you go to now? How long has it been?"
"For me? It's had to be something like a decade or two," I said.
"How fast are things happening now?" Dad said.
"I don't know. I think I'll be fifty-three next year. I just feel it. Everything's getting sore and weak." I took a sip out of my coffee. I looked at mother, who was still waiting for me, "I don't know who my doctor is. Last time I saw one I was still using a pediatrician. I probably just don't have one now." She set the phone down and sat back in her seat.
"Then what?"
"Why am I so tired?"
"You haven't been sleeping."
"I don't think that's it though. That's a part of it, but I feel like if I got a good night's sleep or even like three or four good night's sleeps in a row, it wouldn't do anything for me. Like I'm a different kind of tired—maybe that's why I'm so old now. It's this kind of deep, resounding tired that I can't shake off. It's weird," I said.
"Maybe you should find a person to spend time with. Go out and meet someone," mother said. She refilled her coffee. After, the pot went back down onto the table, set on top of the brown ring it'd made. The coffee swayed calmly inside. She dropped two cubes into her cup, which had created its own brown ring around the center of the saucer. "There are a lot of bars around here or you could even do one of those online dating websites."
"I think dad's right. I think this is just how things are. Things just move a little faster for me. I hate it and all, but at the same time, I'm kind accustomed to it now. It doesn't make me angry or any more anxious than I already am." I finished my coffee and checked my watch. "I have to head out now. Thanks for the coffee; sorry we didn't really make any progress."
"Happy Birthday."
"Thanks, mother."
My mother died in a car accident two years later and I remember sitting at the wake with my father. I was fifty-nine and he was forty-seven. We sat next to each other in folding chairs that the church found in the basement for us. I hated the place. The carpets were all dark red like communion wine—which might've been the point—and the walls were tall wood panels. It felt foreboding to sit under the large marble cross and shake people's hands and smile at them disingenuously.
"Sorry for your loss."
"Thank you."
"She was a good woman, she really was."
"I'm glad you could make it."
My dad avoided speaking when he could and we tried not to look at each other unless we had to. The pastor and a couple volunteers had set out a table with crackers and cookies and two liters in the other room, which was nice because it left the two of us alone for the most part. People would walk in, give their condolences and then congregate in the other room.
"I'm so sorry about your mother."
"Thank you; she was a good one."
"My condolences. If you ever need to talk to anyone, let me know."
"I appreciate it."
A week before, I had to buy a cane because my left leg was getting stiff. I didn't tell my dad. When I walked into the church with it, he refused to look at it. He kept his eyes on me or the wall. He didn't acknowledge it and most other people didn't seem to either. I think they didn't recognize me for the most part. I'm sure some of them thought I was her mother. Occasionally, when I would look down at the carpeting, I could see the spots where people had spilled the communion wine—where the floor was slightly darker. Blotches coalesced around the front row of pews.
"I'm sorry I couldn't make it to the hospital."
"It's alright, I understand."
"I'm sure she's up there smiling down right now."
"Thank you for coming."
The wake ran for three hours. After the first half, most people were eating cookies and crackers in the other room. Me and my dad were left on our own while stragglers occasionally wandered in and spoke with us. I said: "it feels weird to be here. I had this feeling that I would die before the two of you. I didn't think I'd ever be in this situation."
"No one ever wants to be in this situation. I'm sorry you had to."
"It's not that. I just didn't think I would. I thought I would get to avoid it."
He nodded, rubbing his knuckles against his jeans, ticking his tongue.
A woman named, Jenny was at the wake. We went to high school together. She saw me and said that we should grab dinner sometime. We exchanged numbers then ended up texting for a while. Our plans escalated a little bit throughout the month then they simmered back down. Jenny said we should take a drive upstate for a couple hours.
We ended up in her car. I was in the passenger seat, hugging my cane. She rolled down the windows and turned the radio up. For most of the drive we were singing along to pop songs. My voice was weaker now. I'd let out a horse note when I could manage. She told me I was like Tom Waits and I said that I was probably older than him too by now.
I rested my face against the windowsill and let the wind push against me. Things felt relaxed and calm. Jenny shouted out off-melody lyrics, moving along to her own imaginary cadence. Every now and then she would match the song's melody and smile.
I was eighty-nine and my father was fifty-two. We were sitting in the living room together. He had gotten rid of the dining room table after mother died. He ate at the coffee table. When I told him I was coming to visit, he had placed one of the old dining room chairs on the other side—in front of the television. He put a large pitcher of ice water on the table and set out the ashtray. I told him how I'd picked up smoking since we last saw one another.
"How are you?" I asked.
"I'm doing alright. Things have been quiet around here, which is okay." He walked into the kitchen and grabbed two cups out of the cabinets. Dad sat back down at the coffee table and poured both of us a glass of water out of the pitcher. "How are things on your end?"
"I'm kind of happy now, because they're seeming to slow down. Age is starting to creep up on me more than surprise me. I think it's moved in a kind of arch."
"That's good. How've you been sleeping?"
"Fine, fine," I looked past him into the dining room where the sunlight again blotched the room like it had before, throwing the room into mosaic of shades. Droplets began to form around the neck of the water pitcher, building up until they dripped down and formed a ring around the base. Dad rubbed his knuckles against his jeans. I said: "No more or less than usual. I do think though, that things are slowing down as a whole. Not just in terms of my age. I think that I'm kind of at the very end of things, which feel weird. It still feels like you're my dad—you raised me and all that. But at the same time, I feel like I've experienced more than you have. I feel older, but not really parental and I've been thinking about it a lot lately. We're in a kind of strange, unique situation and I'm not really sure what to do with it."
"I don't really know. Are you happy with it?"
"With the situation? I'm not sure what other way it would go. I didn't get to have a normal life, but I also don't think I had that strange of a life either. It just kind of moved faster than most other people's lives do. Whether or not I was happy feels somewhat irrelevant at this point. It doesn't matter if I was happy. It won't change things."
"It's important to me," he said.
"Well, I think that I was happy at certain points, but at other points, I don't think that I was paying attention to it. I remember spending a lot of time on autopilot, which I regret. I was concerned a lot with how fast things were moving."

About K'naan
Born in Mogadishu, Somalia, just as the civil unrest that rocked the country was beginning, rapper K'NAAN spent the early years of his life trying to avoid death and listening to the hip-hop records sent to him from America by his father, who had left Somalia earlier. When K'NAAN (whose name means "traveler" in Somali) was 13, he, his mother, and his two siblings were able to leave their homeland and join relatives in Harlem, where they stayed briefly before moving to Rexdale, Ontario, where there was a large Somali community. As soon as his English started improving he began rapping, and in tenth grade he dropped out of school and traveled around North America for two years, performing occasionally. Through his friendship with Sol Guy, part of promotion team Direct Current Media, K'NAAN was able to perform at the United Nations' 50th anniversary concert in 1999, held in Geneva, where he used his platform to publicly criticize the United Nations' handling of the Somali crisis in the 1990s. One of the audience members, Senegalese singer Youssou N'Dour, was so impressed by the young MC's performance and courage that he invited him to contribute to his 2001 album Building Bridges, a project through which K'NAAN was able to tour the world. In 2002, he met Jarvis Church, part of the Track and Field Productions team that helped propel Nelly Furtado to fame, a connection that eventually led to a record. The Dusty Foot Philosopher came out in Canada in 2005, and was followed with tour spots with Mos Def and Talib Kweli, as well as a performance at Live 8. In 2007, the live album On the Road appeared and then, two years later, the album Troubadour became K'NAAN's first for the major-label A&M. After his track "Wavin' Flag" became the anthem for the 2010 FIFA World Cup, his More Beautiful Than Silence EP arrived in 2012. ~ Marisa Brown

I'm trying to find the rear suspension torque specs for the Altezza.
So for the rear lower arm, upper arm, toe control and traction rod.
What also would be helpful is the torque specs where the differential bolts on to, exhaust etc. Basically everything from the rear
Just wanting to do the fastening of the bolts by the book instead of just tightening it by feel.
So far I have found for the front suspension where the steering rack and control arms are bolted and the engine bay --> http://www.sq-engineering.com/media/wysiwyg/pdf-info-files/3sge/3SGE-Beams-Engine-Manual-english-short.pdf.
The front suspension and steering is however for a IS300. But since they are basically the same I assume it is safe to say that we can use that.
Any input is appreciated.

DRBC August 2018 Meeting Minutes
Members Present: Dan, Michael, Brian
Meeting called to order at 6:00
The most recent secretaries report: Dan moved to approve Brian seconded. Motion passed.
Protected Bike Lane: Carolyn asked us we wanted to set up the demo protected bike lane during Open Streets. (at the time we won't sure if she meant setup and /or manning it). Problem is DRBC folks may be busy (for example — Dan will be manning registration, and some of us may be leading rides). We don't think we will have the people.
Bike racks: The Bus Barn will be getting one, so they don't need ours. River City Hobbies and King Street Kitchen are two businesses that have expressed interest in getting a rack (or two). We should talk to Robbie (at Coulee Bike Company) to see if he knows of anyone who needs one.
We discussed Bike repair stations and where they are currently located.
Fifth Member: After Bike Fest Dan will give it some thought.
We discussed events. Thinking 5 or 6 a year – mentioned insurance. Talked about how we can work with ORA. With Bike Fest changes could they bring music in the afternoon so people on rides have incentive to stay. Dan mentioned small groups and talking with their leaders. Talked about shorter / less intimidating rides to get folks started.
Meeting adjourned at 6:40 to beat the rain (personal note – I didn't make it)

How does the August Smart Lock work?
Smart Locks have become a very large segment of digital home revolution products. Even though many of them are similar in terms of aesthetics and features, the August Smart Lock is the best. One of the features that set it apart from other smart locks is that it allows you to use the existing deadbolt. Furthermore, the August Smart lock comes complete with an easy to use wireless keypad, which makes it perform even better.
What it controls
The August smart lock does not control every lock that you have mounted on the door. The only hardware it controls is your deadbolt. Being a retrofit smart lock, it lets you choose your desired quality of the deadbolt. In fact, if your existing lock is using compatible deadbolts for August smart lock, you can be able to add to it a smart lock.
How it unlocks and unlocks the door
The August smart lock features an auto-unlock that do not require you to operate manually. When you are approaching your door, the auto-unlock feature will sense and unlocks automatically to allow you in. Therefore, you don't have to get your phone for you to unlock your door. After all, this lock is meant to make your home safe and to make your work easier. And you don't need to close the door behind you manually when you are already in. This gadget features an EverLock technology that locks your door behind you automatically. The August smart lock gives you peace of mind because you won't have to worry about forgetting to unlock your door.
Sometimes, your smartphone battery can die and you might not be able to unlock or lock your door. Fortunately, the flexibility and improved functionality of this smart lock allows you to use your traditional key to unlock or lock your door. Moreover, you can also borrow a smartphone from your friend or neighbour if yours is out of battery. You simply download the app and log in using your password. After which, open your door and then exit the app before returning the smartphone to the owner.
When you are leaving your home, you can go the "manual" way and lock your door by simply taping on the green ring. Unlocking the same door the manual way only requires tapping on the unit's red circle.
This smart lock is compatible not only with Android, but also with iPhone devices. This unit works with all Apple devices that are running Bluetooth 4.0-enabled devices. All devices that are running the Android 4.4 KitKat, and iOS 7 or later versions works effectively with the August smart lock. Using this well-designed app is very easy. To view all your August-installed locks, you simply find a specific location and tap on it and you will be able to view their status.
When installing the August smart lock, you don't have to remove your exterior existing door hardware. This lock replaces your present interior side of the standard deadbolt. In simple terms, the lock allows you to keep your present door hardware.
Hoe August Smart Lock helps you
Apart from locking and unlocking all your doors using just your smartphone, you can also keep the track of everyone who comes or leaves. You can do all these from your Android or iOS smartphone. In short, your smartphone becomes your key.
If you want to lock this smart lock, your voice can do this for you. All you need to do is ask Google Assistance, Amazon Alexa or Siri.
With the August smart lock, you are actually the keymaster because you don't have to copy any key again. If you want to allow your family to have access to your home, you can create them virtual keys. Whether you want to allow anyone access to your home for one day, two weeks, a month or even on specific day and so on, you have total control. August smart lock lets you know who enters or leaves your home because you can keep track of any movement. And because you can create unique keys for every user, you will definitely know the person opening the door your home and at what time.
The August smart lock lets you know the status of your door from wherever you are. If it is locked and you want to unlock it to grant access, you can unlock it remotely. You can also lock your door from wherever you are provided you have a smartphone. Knowing that your home is safe gives you peace of mind. This improves your mood and raises your confidence.
August Smart Lock deter burglars
According to statistics, most residential burglaries happen in day time when people have gone to work. With August Doorbell Cam, burglars might think you are inside the house when they knock or touch your door. Irrespective of where you are, you can use a two-way radio to respond to a knock at the door.

I seem to have taken a sub conscience break from this space and have blogged a grand total of two times since moving last September. It was never intended, I guess I just have felt a little uninspired with all the transitions we've been through this year. I also tend to put so much made up pressure for this space on myself. I feel like for the most part almost everything here is super light hearted and care free. But I have such a love/ hate relationship with blogging and social media (which I could go on about another day, haha!). I just want people to know what is behind everything that I do. And that is Jesus. I don't want people who visit here to think I have any other motivation for anything because He's the motivation behind everything. I don't want people to think for a second that I'm just trying to glorify myself, my family, or anything other than Jesus.
Often times I get so caught up in the purpose behind posting absolutely anything so then I just end up posting nothing. But the truth is that if through this silly little space on the internet I'm able to tell someone who and what is behind the motivation for everything I do, then it's worth it. And let's be honest writing light hearted posts about birthday parties, kids, and house things is WAY easier than sharing bits of your heart and being vulnerable.
So if you're still reading...THANKS! I'm not sure what this space will continue to look like, and I'm sure that there will be many light hearted posts in the future, but I just wanted to get all this off my chest even if no one but myself reads this. Whew! Feels so much better!
Also I'm curious if anyone has any suggestions on what they would want to read about here? I'd love any comments!
"So whether you eat or drink whatever you, do it all for the glory of God. "

Acting on desire is how we make decisions in our life. It's how we choose, to the extent we can, the path we want to take. But how do we know we can trust our desires?

It takes energy to wrestle with my faith. It can be an intellectually rigorous process and it can shake the foundations, and I don't always have the cognitive energy or the emotional security to challenge and question authority, both outer and inner.

June 18, 2014 -- Professor Volokh commented on the loss of trademark protection for the Washington Redskins in an interview on NPR's "Marketplace" and in a Chicago Tribune column.
UCLA law professor Eugene Volokh agrees: "Trademark registration, I think, is a government benefit program open to a wide array of speakers with little quality judgment. Like other such programs (such as broadly available funding programs, tax exemptions, or access to government property), it should be seen as a form of 'limited public forum,' in which the government may impose content-based limits but not viewpoint-based ones. An exclusion of marks that disparage groups while allowing marks that praise those groups strikes me as viewpoint discrimination."

Hello, I have an app using Node-Red in Bluemix and I was using it this morning and its been functioning fine; however, the url link to the app suddenly started not working and would give me a 502 error occasionally and more commonly a 404 error. The app also can't seem to stay "healthy" as I can restart, although shortly after restarting it dies again. I've been working on this app for the last few weeks and haven't had any of these problems before now. I also tried making a new app to test if it would have the same problems and it does. Is this something internal to Bluemix or is there some problem occurring that can be fixed on my end? Thanks for any insight. Regards, Connor
Answer by knolleary (2799) | Aug 13, 2014 at 04:26 PM
If you view the cloudant service associated with your app you can launch the cloudant dashboard. From there you can view the nodered database and the 'flows' document. That document is the JSON representation of your flow. You should be able to find the offending function code in there and edit it. At which point you can restart your app.
I would be interested to see the function code in question; it should not be possible for a function node to take down the app like this.
I did what you described and retrieved the JSON code for the flow. I then imported that code into a new app and the app was able to run. The function node that I was editing just before the crash is below
{ "id": "709e4f9.088d5b", "type": "function", "name": "Generate Temp", "func": "var dataArr = new Array(3);\ndataArr = msg.payload;\nvar date = Date.now();\nvar numTags = dataArr[0];\nvar msgArr = new Array(numTags);\nvar mean = dataArr[1];\nvar sd = dataArr[2];\nfor(var i=0;i<numTags;i++){\n\tvar reading = mean + ((Math.random()*sd)+1);\n\tvar tag = {\n\t\tTemperature: reading,\n\t\ttimeStamp: date\n\t};\n\tvar newMsg = {payload: tag};\n\tmsgArr[i] = newMsg;\n}\nreturn [msgArr,];", "outputs": 1, "x": 1152.199951171875, "y": 95.70000076293945, "z": "5a2e8efd.a5d17", "wires": [ [ "11192afc.eee6d5" ] ] },
The exact edit I made before the deployment which resulted in a crash was correcting a syntactical error I had made to the tag object being created here in this line...
var tag = {\n\t\tTemperature: reading,\n\t\ttimeStamp: date\n\t}
I had a semicolon separating the Temperature and timeStamp attributes rather than a comma as it should be. I corrected that to a comma at which point, after deployment, the app crashed.

I just created a new node-red starter application, and everything seems to work ok for me. You can look at logs for a crashed instance by doing 'cf logs <appname> --recent' from the command line. Your app certainly seems to be crashing (causing a 404 error since it's not running).
Answer by Richard Johnson (3602) | Aug 13, 2014 at 01:42 PM
cf logs <appname> --recent is showing that your app is crashing with 'process out of memory' errors, right after an error saying: [error] [function:Generate Exception] SyntaxError: Unexpected token =
Answer by Richard Johnson (3602) | Aug 13, 2014 at 01:55 PM
It seems like something that was configured in this node-red application is causing it to go out of memory. Unfortunately there is now a catch 22 situation, since it's not possible to get the application to start, and therefore it's not possible to edit the nodes to try and fix this.
I suggest starting with a fresh node-red application and trying to avoid whatever the last change was that introduced this issue

IPTV video revenue to reach $26 billion worldwide by 2011, says report
Telcos are looking to IPTV to augment their declining voice communications revenue, causing the market for IPTV video services to rise by a factor of nearly 34 from 2006 to 2011, according to a forecaset from market research firm iSuppli.
According to a new iSuppli report, "IPTV Content & Services 2007: Telecom Companies Turn up the Heat," the market for IPTV video services will rise to $26.3 billion in 2011, up from $779.2 million in 2006. This figure does not include advertising and value-added TV services.
Telcos view IPTV as an opportunity to recapture the revenue generated by many of the Internet-based services that have bypassed them by traveling through their broadband pipes.
However, IPTV will deliver significantly more than just video services, offering access to digital music, on-demand gaming, data services, home security and other items. These value-added offerings will boost global IPTV video revenue stream by more than $1 billion by 2010.
While this represents huge growth, IPTV still will have significant room for expansion in the years following 2011.

If you have been trying to get pregnant and have not conceived yet, or if you want to get pregnant quickly, here is some information that will help promote regular ovulation and increase your chances of getting pregnant.
Healthy Weight
Your weight before getting pregnant can influence ovulation. If you are underweight or overweight, you may have issues with ovulation. Overweight women with a BMI of over 25 take twice as long to become pregnant as do women of a healthy weight. Women with a BMI of less than 19 may take up to four times longer to become pregnant as do women of a healthy weight. Losing even five percent of your body weight can increase your odds of becoming pregnant.
Caffeine and Alcohol
If you drink more than five cups of coffee per day, you may be reducing your chances of becoming pregnant. While drinking less caffeine than this amount seems to be okay, drinking more than 250 milligrams of caffeine per day seems to reduce a woman's fertility. Drinking alcohol has a similar effect on fertility. More than two drinks per day are not recommended, though if you are actively trying to be pregnant you should refrain from drinking at all.
Monitor Your Ovulation Cycle
Knowing when you are most likely to get pregnant will increase your odds of conceiving. Ovulation prediction kits are available for purchase to help you. In general, a woman ovulates 14 days before her next expected menstrual cycle begins. If you are not exactly sure when you will ovulate next, make your best estimate and plan on having sex before the expected ovulation date as well as on the day. Some women may not notice changes that occur during ovulation. Here are a few symptoms that indicate that you may be ovulating:
- Cervical mucus that looks like egg whites
- Increased cervical fluid
- Increase of basal body temperature
- Light spotting
- Breast tenderness
- Bloating
- Increased sex drive
Monitoring the signs and symptoms of ovulation and becoming familiar with your body will help you determine when you are ovulating and help you get pregnant faster.
Choose the Right Supplements
Vitamin C is a great addition to your diet to increase your ovulation. This vitamin increases the amount of water in cervical mucus, which makes conception easier. Make sure that you eat lots of leafy green vegetables, citrus fruit and also in a pill form as ascorbic acid. Choosing a multivitamin with folic acid not will not only improve your rate of ovulation but will be required during pregnancy, too. So choose a high-quality daily vitamin with folic acid to become pregnant and be healthy while pregnant.
Foods that Increase Ovulation
Your choice of protein may make the difference in your ovulation. Foods with high trans fats and animal proteins may cause ovulation disorders. So instead of eating meat, choose beans, legumes and nuts, or at least increase the amount of these that are in your diet and decrease the amount of animal fats. High-fat dairy will help you reach your calcium requirements, add good protein to your diet and may also increase ovulation. Avoid dairy with lots of sugar like ice cream. Instead, choose milk and cheese as your high-fat dairy choice to improve ovulation.
Herbal Remedies
Evening primrose oil has been used by women through the ages to improve menstrual function and menopausal symptoms. It also increases cervical mucus which, in turn, increases ovulation and the chance of pregnancy. Stinging nettle is nourishing and promotes generalized health as well. Making a tea from this plant will give you an amazing source of minerals, especially Vitamin K. It also is good for the baby and promotes milk production after the baby is born.
The most important ingredient in nettle tea is chlorophyll, which has been reported to prepare the body to become pregnant and sustain the embryo after conception.
Red clover has been recommended to improve the health of the female reproductive system down through the ages. Because it is alkaline it balances hormones encourages the uterus to have a balanced PH which is beneficial for conception. Red clover tea is great by itself or combined with peppermint. Red raspberry tea is in the same category as red clover tea. It strengthens and improves a woman's entire reproductive system and soothes the uterus, preparing it for receiving the ovum and conceiving. Red clover and red raspberry have been combined for use in women's health and pregnancy for generations.
Dong quai and false unicorn root tinctures can be used alone or in combination with stinging nettle, red clover and red raspberry tea to continue to enhance fertility and ovulation.

Synopsis: Taylor Valentine, a senior at Western Michigan University, has had her life planned out since kindergarten. After her parents died while she was still in high school, she had perfected it to make them proud. Now with the help of her best friends, Joe and Eva, she focuses on graduation and a career with romance in the far distant future. However, when the visiting professor enters the lecture hall to a four-weekend Civil War seminar, her perfect plan hits a snag. As a handsome history professor and former marine, Dr. Stuart Morgan has his own set of strict rules especially with infatuated students. He enjoys his boring yet pleasant life until he starts receiving death threats. With his unwanted bodyguard in tow, Stuart is unnerved by his reaction to Taylor. Their rigid rules discourage all but a flirtation.With the threats from family and foe pulling them apart, Stuart wonders if they can sustain the stress. Trusting their love, he must somehow convince Taylor to break her rules and embrace a new plan.
Although this is the 3rd book in the series, it can be read as a stand alone book because it is the prequel for the other books in the series. Taylor is determined to follow the rules she has set in place for herself and is thrown by her attraction to Stuart. Taylor slowly learns that sometimes a plan does not go as planned. I admire her determination and remember when I was in college "with the plan". The characters are believable and concrete even when unlikable. Reese comes across as a jerk but a good guy to have at your back. Eva is outgoing, fiesty and fiercely loyal to her friends.
The pace is quick, filled with action as Stuart and FBI agents are trying to track down who is the perpetrator of the threats. The suspense was riveting as Stuart races to find out who the stalker is. I enjoyed reading the romance between Stuart and Taylor as they allowed themselves to enjoy life but also felt the romance was way too quick as usual in romance books. The magical connection that people who are destined to be together experience always draws me even though it also always annoys me at the same time. I love the idea of people finding true love. Overall, great read for readers who love action adventure mixed in with mystery and romantic suspense.

Method #3 Making a Change in the Download Region
A small change like making a modification in the download region is considered as one of the most elementary and convenient methods to get over with the SMPF error in system. The reason behind it is the system that holds content is parted into multiple regions in which the major issue of windows 10 no audio devices installed so how to get rid of that?. Also the steam client mechanically looks out for the searches and unearths the region through with the firm support of the network and then configures the identified region as default.

Accounting and the Public Interest (Editorial Policy and Style Information)
Accounting and the Public Interest is an academic journal published by the Public Interest Section of the American Accounting Association. The journal takes the view that accounting is a social activity with far-ranging consequences for every citizen, welcoming innovation and eclecticism, alternative theories and methodologies, as well as the more traditional ones. The common element in this diversity is the requirement that the study and its findings be linked to the public interest by situating them within a historical, social, and political context, and ultimately providing guidance for responsible

text: Ice-clear orthodontic brackets were designed to help patients to wear their braces discretely, and to give them an attractive finish to their braces. Sometimes known as Sapphire or Radiance braces, they consist of ceramic brackets which are designed to match the colour of the patient's teeth, making the braces harder to spot, and therefore less embarrassing to wear. Although there are reasons to have these braces, many patients have found that they don't always live up to expectation, and there are could be other reasons to change your mind and select an alternative method of straightening your teeth.

Retail Adventures in Seattle
Laura had to head back to South Carolina for some business at Furman, so I had to drive her down to the airport in Seattle. Since she had a morning flight I decided that it would be a perfect opportunity to do some Christmas shopping (well, at least some window shopping) in the Seattle area.

At the Xakanaxa Camp in the Moremi Park, Botswana there is more than just the sound of early morning chirping birds and midnight roars of lions. This is action-packed camping at its best.
With only a few 100km's from Namibia, Botswana is the wild life hot spot of the southern part of Africa. One day drive and you made it into complete wilderness.
08 wildest things to know when going camping at Xakanaxa
01 | Know how to get there
Before you get going make sure you know how to get to the Xakanaxa Campsite. Moremi Park is easily accessed through any of the 2 entry gates (North and South Gate)
02 | Check In
Make sure to check-in at the campsite office, which you will find next to the Xakanaxa airstrip. From there it is about another 3.5km to the campsite. It is advisable to make your campsite booking before your arrival. Best option is booking with Kwalate Safaris.
Kwalate Safaris
(South Gate and Xakanaxa)
Tel: +267 686 1448
Fax: +267 686 1448
Cell: +267 713 08283
Cell: +267 713 07435
Email: email@example.com
03 | Public campsites
Xakanaxa is a very basic but beautiful campsite. Here you'll find bathrooms with showers and toilets and now and again some friendly bathroom visits from elephants.
04 | Camp site safety
Even tho you are in a campsite, always be alert. The wild animals have access to the campsite and get very curios at times. Visits from Hippos or Elephants can defiantly be expected. We had a Hippo party grazing through our camp site at midnight and an early morning Elephant stroll right past our tent.
05 | Malaria
Malaria is a health concern when visiting Botswana, specifically the Chobe National Park and the Okavango Delta. Make sure to always spray yourself with Mosquito spray and cover yourself up by wearing long sleeves, especially during sun set time. Another option is getting a malaria vaccine form your doctor before going on your Botswana trip.
06 | Drinking Water
As with most parts of Africa, tap water in urban areas may cause upset stomachs. Stick to drinking your bottled water. Make sure you bring enough drinking water supply for your trip.
07 | Enjoy the campsites
Leave the campsites early morning for your game drive through the Moremi Park and plan to get back to the campsite early afternoon. This way you can sort out all your camping stuff, dinner plans and grab a shower before it gets dark. Grab an ice cold beer, sit back in your camping chair and enjoy the sound of the camp fire crackling.
08 | Sundowner on the Okavango
Travel Trip: Get up real close and personal with the Hippos and plan a sun downer boat drive on the Okavango! Next to the Xakanaxa campsite you will find the luxury Xakanaxa Camp. They offer exceptional boat trips with their licensed tour guides. An absolute must!

Dublin based singer/songwriter Donna Dunne is a Blues/Rockabilly artist with a lot of talent. Her song "Woman in Black" is a pure Rockabilly/vintage Rock and Roll song that has a fun video to go along with it. The visuals are not the most exciting, but they go along perfectly with the music. The whole affair has an old school, 1950's vibe to it, and comes off as very cool.
The vid starts out with a man scanning through a range of radio channels on an old radio, finally settling on Dunne's song. As the music starts, Dunne herself pulls up in a vintage car and enters a big house that has pictures and figurines of Elvis throughout, finding a hidden room behind the stairs where the music is playing. She jumps right in onto the microphone, and starts singing. The video consists of her singing to the camera, and then cuts away to a few scenes of her walking around outside and then cleaning house– eventually jumping up on the table and playing her broom like a guitar. It's all in good fun, and Dunne has the look and the sound of an old 50's Rockabilly singer. Although the visuals are not spectacular and on-the-edge-of-your-seat exciting, it still is an interesting video that keeps your attention.

The man with the Sun in a box: an analysis
As you can see from all my previous posts, I have many first-hand sources. When I prepared the book "E-Cat – The New Fire", I contacted one of the people who had worked on the development of the E-Cat (therefore, not Rossi). He told me that the Hot-Cat running was a sort of "Sun in a box" and that once he had also seen the reactor sublimate!
Also Andrea Rossi, later, has described this type of event in a comment posted on JoNP:
December 28th, 2013 at 8:32 PM
James Bowery:
Very sorry, I cannot answer to this question exhaustively, but I can say something. Obviously, the experiments are made with total respect of the safety of my team and myself. During the destructive tests we arrived to reach temperatures in the range of 2,000 Celsius degrees, when the "mouse" excited too much the E-Cat, and it is gone out of control, in the sense that we have not been able to stop the raise of the temperature (we arrived on purpose to that level, because we wanted to study this kind of situation). A nuclear Physicist, analyzing the registration of the data, has calculated that the increase of temperature (from 1,000 Celsius to 2,000 Celsius in about 10 seconds), considering the surface that has increased of such temperature, has implied a power of 1 MW, while the Mouse had a mean power of 1.3 kW. Look at the photo you have given the link of, and imagine that the cylinder was cherry red, then in 10 seconds all the cylinder became white-blue, starting from the white dot you see in the photo (after 1 second) becoming totally white-blue in the following 9 seconds, and then an explosion and the ceramic inside (which is a ceramic that melts at 2,000 Celsius) turned into a red, brilliant stone, like a ruby. When we opened the reactor, part of the AISI 310 steel was not molten, but sublimated and condensed in form of microscopic drops of steel.
Warm Regards,
The photo cited by Rossi: a Hot-Cat exhibits a hot-spot during a destructive test, in 2012.
Sublimation is a process during which a solid on heating changes directly into the vapor phase without passing through the intermediate liquid state. When the vapors are cooled, they condense to form solid. The temperature at which a solid changes into vapor is called the sublimation point (and corresponds to the boiling point of the liquid).
Typically, the pressure at which a material sublimate is atmospheric pressure, so the sublimation points are normally referred to the standard pressure of 760 mm Hg, and the temperature is the determining factor to the change of state in those cases. However, more in general, a material will change from solid state to gas state at specific combinations of temperature and surrounding pressure.
The temperature of a material will increase until it reaches the point where the change takes place. It will stay at that temperature until that change is completed. Some substances sublime at room temperature. A common example of this is dry ice, where solid carbon dioxide becomes gaseous without being a liquid during the process.
You can see below its phase diagram:
The phase diagram for carbon dioxide (from Wikimedia).
For each solid, raising temperature at low enough pressure takes the material directly from solid to gas, but at higher pressure it will go through the liquid between. The pressure where that behavior changes turns out to be a lot different for different materials, so at atmospheric pressure some behave some way, some the other. For water, if you lower pressure to about 1/160 of atmospheric pressure, it will go straight from solid to gas.
It is interesting that metals exhibit evidence of a tendency to sublimate – or, more exactly, show volatility – at temperatures considerably below their melting points. Krafft already in 1903 investigated in some detail the volatilization of a number of metals at low pressures. Rosenhain obtained beautiful crystals of sublimed zinc by heating a piece of zinc to 300 °C for some weeks in a glass tube containing hydrogen (!) at atmospheric pressure.
From the book "Hot-Cat 2.0 – How last generation E-Cats are made" we know that the reactors used in these destructive tests were made of metallic and non metallic materials: steel (external cylinder and inner cylinder), a ceramic material (between the two steel cylinders), some heating resistors (made of metal) and nickel (main component of the charge). So it is interesting to check what are the sublimation points for some of such materials.
The sublimation point for nickel is 2800 °C. However, very few metals are used in pure, or even relatively pure, forms. Steel, for example, is the name for a whole family of iron alloys (containing carbon and often some other elements). The boiling point of iron (not steel) is 2750 C, so the sublimation (or boiling) point of steel is likely to be close for most steels: around 3000 °C. Steel melts at much lower temperatures: around 1300-1500 °C.
The phase diagram for pure iron (from Wikipedia).
In the phase diagram above you can see that iron is solid at room pressure and at standard temperature (25 °C), but melts around 1540 °C and sublimate around 2750 °C. Alpha (α) iron, or ferrite, is the name given in material science to pure iron with a body-centered cubic crystal structure. It is this structure which gives steel its magnetic properties and is the classic example of a ferromagnetic material. Mild steel consists mostly of ferrite.
Regarding the ceramic materials contained in Rossi's type of Hot-Cat used in the destructive tests (different from the alumina used in the Lugano test, as described in the cited book), their melting point is around 1900-2000 °C, and their sublimation point is about 3000-3500 °C.
Therefore, at the end of this "exploration" we can conclude – taking into account also the temperature gradient along the reactor from inside to outside – that the temperature reached in the destroyed Hot-Cats was well beyond 3000 °C! This is extremely interesting, because there is no way to obtain such a result using electrical heating resistors…

text: NEW DELHI: Cell phones still remain mostly useless as power supply to telecom towers is yet to be restored fully. Nearly all service providers, including Airtel, Vodafone and Aircel, had gone blank as telecom towers did not have power supply, although some managed to get back in service towards Saturday evening. The state-owned BSNL's services were intermittent. Telecom towers are powered with state grid power and have diesel fired gensets as back-up. Airtel and Idea Cellular issued statements that they were working with local authorities to enable smooth mobile communication. The firms blame waterlogging for the disruption in service.

Bill Gross doesn't have much nice to say about professional investors who are managing assets these days.
In his April investment outlook, Gross of Janus Capital warned about a global downturn and spoke out about the inexperience that is plaguing traders.
Gross says investing is one-third math, one-third economics, and one-third horse-trading.
"But back to the 1/3 math thing," he wrote Wednesday.
"It's there that I find the average lay and even many professional investors still thinking and managing assets at the grade school level. The childlike 'teeter totter' principle, for instance which couldn't be simpler in its visualization of bond prices going up when interest rates go down, produces foggy-eyed reactions from a majority of non-professionals, and from a few supposed experts as well."
If bond investors don't understand the math concepts needed for the market, Gross believes they shouldn't be investing.
Gross points to trading with negative interest rates as the biggest sign of market misunderstandings.
Gross talks about Zeno's paradox. Here's what he had to say about that concept:
"Zeno was an ancient Greek who posed the following conundrum: Imagine a walker heading towards a finish line 10 yards away but every step he took was half of the length of the step he took before. If so, even if he walked an infinite amount of steps he could never reach his destination. Mathematically correct but the real world resolution was that Zeno's walker and everything else that we experience moves forward in full step integers as opposed to fractions. It was a mathematical twist only."
Negative bond rates Japan and Germany lose investors money, yet they are still being purchased.
Gross explains this phenomenon.
"Anyway, for those private investors that continue to hold 5 year OBL's and lock in a guaranteed loss 5 years from now, many of them are using a bit of Zeno's paradox to convince themselves that they will never reach the loss-certain finish line at maturity. They think that because 4 year OBL's yield even less (-40 basis points), the 5 year OBL's will actually go up in price (remember the teeter totter?) if 4 year rates stay the same over the next 12 months, and the ECB has sort of — sort of — promised that. Whatever it takes, you know. If so, the private investor will actually make a little money over the next year (10 basis points) and she can give herself a slap on the back for having eluded the ECB's negative interest rate trap!"
Gross says someone will have to hold the bond until maturity, which means the market will have losses because of negative rates.
"The reality is this," he concluded. "Central bank polices consisting of QE's and negative/artificially low interest rates must successfully reflate global economies or else. They are running out of time."
So according to Bill Gross, investors are operating at a grade school level and they are destroying the global economy in the process.

Hello friends
Wow another week has flown by...
Cannot believe its nearly July!!
Its been a funny old week here in the UK
Ive been doing my best to avoid all the news/social media feeds, as its been full on reporting about Britain leaving the EU.
(Its been really hard to know who or what to believe anymore)
but the decision has finally been made,
so I guess we just have to Keep calm and drink GIN!
So while Ive been sipping on my
extra Large gin,
I got to work on creating a layered piece using lots of original letters and envelopes
I started with a first an old air mail letter. I added a photo from the Tim Holtz Photo Booth collection, then set about adding lots of stitches.
I added another layer of Kraft card cut from the Sizzix Mixed Media thinlits and added some splatters of distress paints.
I just love the Correspondence stamp set (CMS225) its full of great images....I stamped a few of them using Archival ink.
Plus I always love to add some Idea-ology, along with my own vintage finds....
I added the union jack, I guess as my own way of marking this weeks topical events....
(It does not however represent any of my own political views, parties or sides, like I say just my own personal way to mark the event)
The vintage file box was a great find in a junk shop.....just wish there had been a couple more!
Right I think my glass needs topping up!!More gin please!!
As always feel free to leave a comment,
I appreciate each and every one!
Have yourselves a really lovely weekend
bye for now

A treatment that killed 10% of patients would certainly be considered unacceptable by modern medical standards. And yet, that is the best that doctors can currently offer victims of sleeping sickness. This disease, which strikes rural Africa, in particular, is caused by a parasite called trypanosome. It is passed to a human or animal by the bite of a tsetse fly, much like mosquitoes may transmit the parasite causing malaria. Once in a person's blood, it travels to the brain where it interrupts the usual sleep/wake cycles. Victims are neither fully conscious nor fully asleep and, without today's very aggressive drugs, the patient will die.
Fabien Guegan believes the parasite's complex life cycle holds the key to halting sleeping sickness. Between the tsetse fly's stomach and a person's blood, trypanosome inhabits two very different environments. Yet, very quickly, it is able to adapt, changing its shape and metabolism by activating different genes. Dr. Guegan is hot on the trail of the molecules he thinks may act as orchestra conductors, synchronizing the many different elements of this transformation. Disrupting the "conductor" could make the whole trypanosome symphony fall apart. His strategy of targeting the transmission process inside the parasite could make it possible to block the spread between infected humans and animals and more tsetse flies. If so, this could mean a huge step forward in controlling sleeping sickness.
Sleeping sickness is a fatal disease caused by trypanosome, a parasite transmitted by the tsetse fly. Dr. Fabien Guegan is studying how trypanosomes survive in the human blood using an ingenious strategy to evade the immune system called antigenic variation. He is also studying how this parasite adapts to extreme environmental changes, passing from human blood to the tsetse fly midgut. Understanding the adaptive strategies used by trypanosome will provide new avenues for developing treatments.

I read that WD40 and scotch bright worked. It did not. Now I have spots that are lighter in color. What can I do? besides buying a new oven door.
You might try a product like Bar Keepers Friend. It is a dry product like Ajax or Comet but meant for cleaning and polishing metal. it contains oxalic acid and if it is a brushed finish you should rub in the direction of the grain. I would start out with a wet softer cloth than the scotch pad. It is unbelievable how strong and acid especially cat urine is and it may have discolored the stainless steel but it is worth trying the Bar Keepers Friend and it can be used on othe pots and pans in the kitchen plus I think it is still less than $2 at the grocery stores, Home Depot and I think Lowes also have it. It is in a gold can. The can is like the cardboard ones Ajax came in.
As an additional bit of info my stainless steel sink had some stains in it from an acid I was using to clean the faucet parts and it did not work right away but ater time the did dissapear.

Going with the scotch brite probably was not the best initial approach - plain detergent probably would have handled it fine, so now you have a bright polish on that area - which looks lighter. The urine probably would not have "stained" the steel - what you way was probably just a surface stain that would have wiped off.
Before going with the aggressive method which Don suggests, which will likely work but could change the appearance of the stainless finish fairly dramatically, I would first try rubbing it with a paste of baking soda and a touch of vegetable or olive oil - that will remove many stains non-aggressively. Try to blend the lighter, more polished area out to the surrounding area, using a variable circular motion - not back and forth, unless you have a directional "grain" to the finish - in which case follow that direction back and forth.
If that does not work, it may be you will have to polish the entire surface the same as you did the spot, to make it all look the same.
