12 Oct 2016: This is diesel. He's 13. He is deaf. He is too skinny. He has bad hips and joints. He has rotten teeth. He has lumps all over his frail body. He was never loved ... .
He was on his way to the city kill shelter because his owner dumped him with his dad, and his dad couldn't take care of him. We couldn't let that happen so we stepped in.
He went to his foster home and had his first bath and ear cleaning of his life. He was playful with her dogs and is enjoying all of the attention he is getting the past couple of days â¤ï¸
Friday he has his first doctor appointment. It's safe to say it will be the first one he's ever had. Please donate to diesels care. He is physically a mess of a dog but we would like for him to be able to stick around long enough to actually feel what it's like to have someone love him.
Adoption process includes adoption application, phone interview and home visit. Vet references are checked!
Home visit is required along with Vet references. Our full list of fees have been listed on the adoption application. Our dogs come fully vetted and have to be spayed/neutered prior to adoption.
Thank You!

Improving Water Quality: Controlling Point and Nonpoint Sources Chapter 15 © 2004 Thomson Learning/South-Western
2 Controlling Point Sources: Effluent Limitations Overview of the Effluent Limits and National Permits Effluent Limitations – instituted through the Federal Water pollution Act (FWPCA) of 1972 Technology-based effluent limitations – standards to control discharges from point sources based primarily on technological capability Direct industrial discharges – release their wastes into surface waters without any intermediary Permit System National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) – a federally mandated permit system used to control effluent releases from direct industrial discharges and POTWs
3 Controlling Point Sources: Effluent Limitations Technology-Based Effluent Limitations for Direct Industrial Dischargers Effluent limitations are more accurately termed performance based standards Standards are source dependent New source – one whose construction begun after proposed regulations had been announced Existing source – one whose construction begun before proposed regulations had been announced
4 Analysis of Effluent Limitations on Point Sources Administrative Delays Over the past 25 years, the EPA's track record has been slow in developing and revising effluent guidelines, which are the basis for the federal limitations
5 Analysis of Effluent Limitations on Point Sources Imprecise and Inconsistent Definitions Fundamental problem with effluent limitations is that they are not aligned with the nation's objectives Water quality-related limitations – modified effluent limits to be met if the desired water quality level is not being achieved even if polluters are satisfying the technology-based limits
6 Analysis of Effluent Limitations on Point Sources Meeting the Zero Discharge Goal Overly ambitious Inefficient objective
7 Analysis of Effluent Limitations on Point Sources Absence of Economic Decision Rules Lack of an Efficiency Criterion Provisions offer no guidance as to how they are to be used in decision making Lack of precision in the reference to benefits and costs Cost-Ineffective Decision Making Under the Clean Water Act, the uniformity of the effluent limits prevents a cost-effective outcome Lack of a reward system for efficient abaters to reduce effluents beyond legal limits
8 Waste Treatment Management and the Potw Program The Pre-1987 Federal Grant Program Federal grant program – provided major funding from the federal government for a share of the construction costs of POTWs
9 Waste Treatment Management and the Potw Program Shift to the State Revolving Fund (SRF) Program in 1987 State Revolving Fund (SRF) program – establishes state lending programs to support POTW construction and other projects
10 Analysis of the POTW Funding Program Assessing the Accomplishments Attributable to Federal Subsidies Argument that federal subsidies have been effective because municipal waste treatment has progressed measurably is falsely motivated An increasing percentage of the population is served by facilities using at least secondary treatment Observed improvement in wastewater treatment cannot be attributed fully to the grant program
11 Analysis of the POTW Funding Program Inefficiencies in the Federal Grant Program Lack of Incentives Policy Response Equity Implications
12 Controlling Nonpoint Sources Nonpoint Source Management Program – a three-stage, state implemented plan aimed at nonpoint source pollution Best management practices (BMP) – strategies other than effluent limitations to reduce pollution from nonpoint sources
13 Controlling Nonpoint Sources Devising and Updating a Framework In 1989, the EPA developed its Nonpoint Source Agenda for the Future to help define national goals for nonpoint source pollution and to find appropriate mechanisms to achieve them
14 Controlling Nonpoint Sources Watershed Approach Watershed – land areas that drain into a particular water body Attending to the watershed allows public officials to gain a better sense of the overall environmental conditions in an area
15 Analysis of Controls on Nonpoint Sources Delegating Control to the States: The Pros Variability of Nonpoint Source Pollution Land Use Practices
16 Analysis of Controls on Nonpoint Sources Delegating Control to the States: The Cons Information Deficiencies Poor Monitoring Systems Inconsistent Controls
17 Analysis of Controls on Nonpoint Sources Analyzing the Federal Role in Nonpoint Source Controls Resource Allocation Federal funds are needed to fill information voids about nonpoint source pollution Coordination with Other National Programs Conflict between water quality objectives and other regulations needs to be resolved at federal level
18 Proposals for Reform: Using the Market Market Approaches to Point Source Pollution Effluent Fees Volume-based effluent fee – a fee based on the quantity of pollution discharged Pollutant-based effluent fee – a fee based on the degree of harm associated with the contaminant being released Tradeable Effluent Permits Tradeable effluent permit market – the exchange of rights to pollute among water polluting sources
19 Proposals for Reform: Using the Market Figure 15.2 Cost-Effectiveness of a Per Unit Effluent Fee
20 Proposals for Reform: Using the Market Figure 15.3 Inefficiency of a National Per Unit Effluent Fee
21 Proposals for Reform: Using the Market Market Approaches to Nonpoint Source Pollution Product Charge – fee added to the price of a pollution generating product based on its quantity of some attribute responsible for pollution Effluent Reduction Trading Within a Effluent reduction trading policy – establishes an abatement objective for a watershed and allows sources to negotiate trades for rights to pollute Effluent reduction credits – tradeable permits issued if a polluter discharges a lower level of effluents than what is attained by law Effluent allowances – tradeable permits issued up-front that give a polluter the right to release effluents in the future

2006 Nissan Maxima Sedan 3.5 SE 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
All you have to do is drive one. I read about Hondas, Toyotas, whatever... I never get tired of pulling away from VTECs (4s and 6s). I have had NO ISSUES. The gas mileage isn't fabulous, but for a car with this much zip, it's quite good. Yeah, the turning radius isn't great, and there is some torque steer, but what car doesn't have one thing worth changing. I wanted a performance sedan and I got one. I have friends with '10 Hemi (390 HP) Rams that can't pull away from me. What more can you want in a 4 DOOR SEDAN. Don't forget, it's a family car!
Performance (don't sacrifice for mpg), Heated steering wheel, stance, 18" wheels, headlights, Bose system, skylights
address the torque steer, 328 HP like the G37
2006 Nissan Maxima Sedan 3.5 SE 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
We purchased our Maxima in March 2006. I commute 100 miles each day, so we have put a lot of miles on this car; currently just over 100,000. The only thing I have had done is replace the tires two times, oil change, and replaced both headlight bulbs. Unfortunately, most people will need to have the dealer replace the headlight bulb. My wife and I both love driving this car!
Strong car with lots of power. Stylish design. Decent mileage. I am averaging over 24 mpg. Dependability.
MP 3 input!
2006 Nissan Maxima Sedan 3.5 SE 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
We purchased a loaded se and owned for almost 2 years. Purchased used in 2008 with 26k on the odometer. Cost was $20k out door with fl tax (orig. Sticker was over $34k. Whoa). Has almost every option except dvd/nav. Here is a good car that could have been great. While dependable, it has it quirks. Fast car, but terrible torque steer. Nice interior, but seats need more padding. Trips over 1.5 hours and your bottom is sore. Great styling, but bad turning radius. Weird cloth substance on dash/doors. What is up with that? Leather would have been perfect. All in all, a sharp looking, dependable car that is good on gas. No maintenance issues in 2 years. No rattles, leaks, creaks etc.
Engine power (fast), good mileage (avg. 22 city, 29 hwy), very dependable. Virtually never in the shop (only on 2 items, under warranty). Black leather seats stay cool-ish even when hot. Tilt/telescope wheel is nice, Bose stereo sounds fine to me. Heated front and rear seats are great. Xenon lights.
Torque steer on hard acceleration is almost dangerous. Get rid of that! Needs better turning radius, some wind/road noise. Get rid of cheesy cloth-like dash material looks tacky. More padding in seats. I would buy another if they addressed the above. Add a manual trans., make it RWD, perfect.
2006 Nissan Maxima Sedan 3.5 SE 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
Bought my Max brand new and added the spoiler. It had the sporty feel I wanted and the practicality of a 4Dr sedan. In 4 years never had to do a thing expect routine maint and a new set of tires. Loved the 18" upgraded rims. And if you resit the temptation to drive it at the real speeds this sweetheart will go I got 28-30 mpg on the hwy. Not so go in city. Must use the cruise control on this car or you will find yourself in some trouble in no time.
18" chrome wheels, steering wheel controls,interior room,trunk space, turning signals on mirrors,acceleration for merging onto freeway, problem free
upgrade interior materials, mp3 outlet, road noise, make it distinctly different than the Altima. If I am going to $10,000+ more i don't want my neighbors Altima looking almost the same. Which is why I am getting a 2010 Max!
2006 Nissan Maxima Sedan 3.5 SE 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
I bought this car brand new thinking that like my last vehicle it would less me at least 140,000 miles without fixing anything major, so in 2 years my air condition went down, following winter something happened with my unt brakes, and now my transmission start acting up don't know whats the problem, i hope this car will get a recall it seems a lot of people have the same problem and after spending a good buck for this car i expect also a better performance I would never buy Nissan again unless there is a 100,000 warrant since i don't trust them anymore,
design of this car and how roomie it is
make this car less longer

Quick Tip: Convert Video & Audio Files with Adobe Media Encoder
by Jake Rocheleau
on June 16, 2015
The task of converting media has always been tricky. It's possible to use online tools or free programs like MP4 to MP3 Converter. But most of these tools are lackluster, full of adware, and don't have the prettiest interfaces.
Adobe's Creative Suite 6 released with a new program called Media Encoder. This allows you to encode any type of media into another format or file container.
I'll explain how you can do this with any piece of media using Adobe Media Converter CS6 or CC. It's actually a very simple piece of software and once you learn how it works, you'll never want to use anything else.

(Excerpt, minutes of The Conservation Board of Huntington, NY, November 17, 2009)
On November 14, Mr. Ponturo attended a presentation by Alison Jones, Project Director of No Water No Life, hosted by the Lloyd Harbor Conservation Board. As detailed on its website, No Water No Life combines the powers of photography, scientific research and stakeholder knowledge to raise awareness of the importance of freshwater resources, perils of watershed degradation and opportunities for sustainable resource management.
The meeting offered the opportunity to discuss local community concerns including MTBE contamination problems, radon detection in some wells and lead contamination of drinking water. Concerning the MTBE contamination problem, Mr. Ponturo advised the Village CB chair that the Suffolk County Department of the Health's Bureau of Drinking Water is still willing to sample private wells on request, although there was agreement that NYSDEC follow-up in a spill investigation should have been more effective in locating the contamination source and conducting its own follow-up surveys of wells.

industrial emissions analyser Applications
Paper & Pulp Industry Emissions Monitoring
The Procal 2000 emissions analyser is ideally suited to the harsh environments associated with Paper & Pulp Plants. The in situ, multi-component Continuous Emission Monitoring (CEM) system has an integrated auto-zero and calibration facility, thereby removing the need for intervention by maintenance staff under normal conditions.
Continuous emissions monitoring for glass manufacturing industries
Process control and emissions monitoring in a glass manufacturing plant is a challenge due to high temperature in the flue gas. The OPSIS DOAS system provides the glass industry with an accurate analyser that will operate with a minimum of maintenance. The OPSIS DOAS system is based on a non-contact method that uses an optical path to measure across the duct. A single OPSIS system will measure all relevant gas componensts such as NOX, SO2, CO, CO2, H2O, O2, and others.

Measurement solution for total VOC via FTIR
Total Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) is a common measurement required from industrial emissions. Commonly, a single measurement value is obtained through the use of a Flame Ionisation Detection (FID) analyser. The pyrolysis of the gas stream in a FID analyser allows it to make a measurement of the carbon content of the gas stream. FID analyser cannot indicate the relative abundances of different organic species in a gas stream and often have widely different responses for different gases. However, they are taken as the standard reference method for Total VOC emission measurements.
Measurement solution for organic vapour speciation
Protea has deployed FTIR gas analysers in many projects requiring the monitoring of complex mixes of VOCs. In the chemical and pharmaceutical industry, scrubbers and carbon-bed abatement plants are typical installations where the use of Protea FTIR analysers and our chemometric expertise have proved valuable to plant operators. They prove an invaluable tool in process measurements and emissions monitoring. In the laboratory, Protea can deliver instruments with all the chemometric software and support to enable users to measure hundreds of gases.
Measurement solution for carbon fibre manufacture
Carbon fibre is a unique material and is found in many high-tech industries such as sports car manufacture, wind turbine blade construction and sports equipment. The production of carbon fibre from acrylic fibre involves the baking of the fibre in ovens, which gives emissions of gas species including Hydrogen Cyanide (HCN). Protea's range of gas analysers can provide a solution for the periodic or continuous measurement of gases from carbon fibre production in order to give reportable emissions values as required by legislation.

Over the last two years I've really developed a love for clutches. Prior to, I was the girl with the huge tote bag full of everything but the kitchen sink, so I never saw the point in needing a clutch. Not anymore. I realize now that clutches really enhance an outfit. They are the cherry on top of the sundae. The bow on top of a present. Think about it. When was the last time you saw someone walk down the street with a oddly-shaped extra large tote bag full of God knows what and thought, "wow, she looks chic." Exactly. It doesn't make you look put together. But clutches... clutches do. They don't crush your outfit or hurt your shoulder. And they only make room to carry your most important items, which is all you really need to have a good time anyway, right? Clutches, most of the time, are also less expensive than larger bags, which is another bonus. But my favorite part about clutches is their insane array of colors, patterns, textures and designs.
Check out my current favorites below...
I had so much fun "doing research" for this post that I may or may not have one (or four) new clutches being delivered to my house this week.
To all of the large tote bags sitting in my closet: I still love you. You complete me.

Miami is constantly reinventing itself. Doral, a suburb that lies west of Miami-Dade County, has been targeted by developers as a new urban center. According to the Miami Herald, there are plans to build a mixed-used community called Downtown Doral. The project will encompass 120 acres of land in hopes to establish Doral as a place to live, work and play.
"In Downtown Doral, we are giving the new City of Doral a heart and soul," Armando Codina, developer, wrote on the Downtown Doral website.
According to the source, Codina Partners invested more than $1 billion in the project, its largest contribution ever. The development will include 2,840 upscale living units, including a number of condos and rental properties. Additionally, there will be more than 1 million square feet of office space, allowing larger corporations to "rub shoulders" with startups.
When new projects are planned there is a unique chance for the interior design to take on a modern aesthetic. A variety of office design trends has emerged that are based on collaboration, which has been made easier through smart furniture purchases.
Open layouts
Office workstations - Multiple rows of cubicles aren't right for an open floor plan, so opt for bench workstations to provide an airy feel to the room. These desks are built from multiple attached units to provide an efficient use of space. They are available in larger units that sit two or more people and are perfect for employees that need extra storage and counter space, like administrative staff members. On the other hand, contrasting workstations feature a rectangular design that fits more people. However, each person still has ample space to work. This option is suitable for customer service representatives, writers and even graphic designers.
Custom - To create a productive environment skip the one-size-fits-all method of buying office furniture and instead customize the units to feature the amenities people need. This can also be done with traditional desks. Some models have hutches and shelving to increase the storage space. Pick up those pieces if the additional storage will help support operations.
Ergonomic chairs - These days it's not enough to purchase task chairs for employees. Each seat needs to meet ergonomic standards to provide a comfortable cushion. Additionally, an ergonomic chair adjusts to conform to the posture and height of each user, which helps eliminate workplace strains.

graal online era for vita playstatio
n mobile
i dont know if any of you have heard about graal online, but i would love to have it on my vita's ps mobile. its a really fun game. i think sony should look into it. especialy graal online era.
so this is my petition type thing.
put your vote (yay or nay) below!
Re: graal online era for vita playstatio
n mobile
This isn't where you want to do this. You want to do something like this Borderlands 2 on PS Vita suggestion.
So just click the orange link. Then do a search first to see if it's already been suggested. If it hasn't, sign in and make one there. That's where Sony will see it. Hope this helps.
Re: graal online era for vita playstatio
n mobile
Have they ever taken any suggestions from there and applyed them. I see a lot of them on there but never see anything done with them. Like the ps1 issue with the vita. It was on there and there was nothing. Then everybody crashed these blogs with it and they jumped right to doing something about it. It just seems like a place to trash all ideas at, so they will be in one place to me. Out of sight, out of mind, you know.
Re: graal online era for vita playstatio
n mobile
Well since not a single person ever responded to my Reactable thread, suggesting that for PS Mobile and showing support.
I know how much it sucks to not have anyone really interested in potentially good things to come but it is mainly these forums no offense but it's the bottom of the barrel, so I say YAY and support your need for more in PS Mobile.
Maybe since I helped you out you could help me, Visit Reactable.com, send them an email saying you would love to see Reactable on PS Mobile. If not it's fine, I still support your venture anyway.
Re: graal online era for vita playstatio
[ Edited ]
n mobile
Maybe no one responded because no one cared. You can't force people to care about things that you care about. If no one reply's maybe you should take it as a sign that people aren't interested in your idea, and if you keep trying to cram it down people's throats, they're just going to ignore you harder, or lash out and call you names.

A ruling that barred a Basque coalition from taking part in forthcoming local elections on the grounds that some of its candidates are linked to the outlawed political wing of the armed separatist group Eta has been overturned.
Spain's highest court, the Constitutional Court, voted 6-5 yesterday to let the Bildu coalition field candidates in the elections on 22 May. The court did not state why it was overturning a decision announced on Monday by the Supreme Court.
Bildu is a new alliance comprising two mainstream parties and independent candidates. The government argued that some of the independents were fronts for Eta's banned political wing, Batasuna.
The Constitutional Court ruling appears to be good news for Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero, the Prime Minister, whose minority government relies on support from the Basque Nationalist Party.

- Aug 25, 2011John,
Your original question was quite clear in what you wanted.
The process is quite simple and short:
Set the delimiter to ^P
Input each file into separate arrays
Append each array element (in sequence), and output to the new file.
BTW, the meat of this was all detailed in the clips I sent you in Feb.
^!SetListDelimiter ^P
^!SetArray %File1%=^$GetFileText("^%oldFile1%")$
^!SetArray %File2%=^$GetFileText("^%oldFile2%")$
;Execute the next line for all element of the arrays i = 1, 2, ... max
^!AppendtoFile ^%newFile% ^%File1^%i%%^%File2^%i%%^%nl%
Obviously, you have to define the file name variables and check for unequal
# of array elements and other conditions.

Struggling to cope: Where is the church in times of infertility?
by Lindsay Mack
Sarah's laughter is not sitting well with me these days. I imagine sitting across from the Biblical character, Sarah, in the teashop and listening: "After all these years! Abraham and I are finally pregnant! Can you believe it?" She laughs and claps her hands.
I take a deep breath and hug her fiercely trying to tamper down the same old tornado of feelings: envy, surprise, sadness. I manage some small grunting laughter and a weak congratulatory speech but she (thankfully) doesn't notice.
In my head I tell myself that my behavior is ridiculous. This is Sarah's moment of joy and I am determined to share it with her. I make a valiant effort but an hour later, after Sarah and I have hugged and parted, I slip into my car and burst into confused tears. Because Sarah is pregnant and I'm not.
My partner and I have been trying to get pregnant for over five years. Underneath the wish for biological children, the blood draws, temperature readings and clinical interrogation about our sex life, there is a storm of emotions that is rarely talked about with others. In our case our inability to conceive squeezes into being these weird feelings of grief, sadness, shame, confusion and envy. The stress of the financial implications of fertility treatment can be paralyzing. We are ratted by the inaccessibility of the dream of parenthood and question our identity. It can be all together overwhelming.
The church strives to walk with people through the ups and downs of life. The Bible reminds us that we are called to cradle the emotionally and physically vulnerable members of our community. Blessed are those who care for those in need (Psalm 41:1). When someone is going through the grief of the death of a close friend or family member, caring people are often quick to call and check in or send a card. Rarely does someone bring a casserole to the house to support a couple coping with their inability to get or stay pregnant.
If my partner and I happen to share about our struggles to get pregnant, folks often steamroll through the anxiousness to hope: "It will happen!" They say optimistically. Or perhaps, "you'll get pregnant! In God's time. God has a plan."
Every person struggling to conceive will probably react uniquely to these well-meaning pats on the arm. In my particular case–and I know others who share this sentiment–those words along with phrases like "just relax" or "stop trying and it will happen" can be more hurtful than helpful. There are moments when I long for Job's friends who will simply sit next to me in silence in the ash heap for seven days and seven nights without much more than their presence that says, "I'm sorry you're going through this."
Supporting the person or couple in infertility treatment might be exactly what we need to do as congregations. Jesus reminds us in the Gospel of John, we are called to "love one another. Just as I have loved you, you should also love one another" (John 13:34). There are particular moments when support is keenly needed. Moments like Mother's Day, often recognized in our congregations, can be bitter to the person struggling with infertility. In my case, not only do I miss my mother terribly on Mother's Day but now it is also a hallmark reminder of my body's inability to conceive a baby.
Tempting as it is to call in sick and curl up under a blanket, this is not always a viable option for me as a pastor. Several years ago, I shared a poem about motherhood and infertility with our church liturgist. She ended up including it in our Mother's Day liturgy. After the worship, several people told me about their daughters' or nieces' struggles to conceive. Later, an elderly childless man at my church quietly handed me one of the carnations they were giving to the mothers. He and his wife knew of our struggles to get pregnant. "Por que se que quieres ser mama, Because I know you want to be a mother," he gently told me. Although I was still carefully guarding my secret of infertility, that Mother's Day, I found unexpected healing and solidarity in our congregation.
Learning to cope with the grief of miscarriage, or an inability to conceive a baby can be a tremendous task. But my faith compels me to journey towards the hope of something better. It is a journey of heartache that is easier to navigate surrounded by the love of God incarnate in caring community.
How can we support couples and individuals struggling with infertility?
• Don't be afraid to support someone. Ask if you can bring that casserole over—perhaps on the day of a treatment or after a negative pregnancy test. And maybe bring some chocolate too.
• From the beginning, if you discover that someone is struggling to get pregnant, ask: "Do you want me to ask you about it?" Sometimes the answer is no, sometimes it is yes.
• Be specific: "Does it help to talk about your treatment?" "Could I offer to pray or light a candle for you on the days you have certain procedures?" and then send a text message when you've done it.
• Ask about other things that remind the person that s/he is a talented, interesting person already.
• Although anything to do with kids might be the last place a person struggling with infertility wants to be, don't assume that just because someone isn't a parent that s/he doesn't have valuable insight to share about children's ministry (or any ministry for that matter).
• Be sensitive around days like Mother's and Father's Day. Is there a way to include or honor folks who wish to be parents but aren't?
• Stay close if someone miscarries.
• Is there a local support group, a particular Stephen's Minister or counselor people can be referred to?
Discussion questions:
1. Has your understanding of God changed with the experience of significant life adversity such as a struggle to get or stay pregnant?
2. How has your understanding or experience of God changed when you have (or someone close to you has) experienced significant life adversity such as a struggle to get or stay pregnant?
3. In times that are saturated with messages of parenthood–like Mother's Day or Father's Day–how do you care for your spirit? How does your community or congregation care for women and men struggling with issues of fertility? If they don't, how can you bring a heightened sensitivity of this issue to your church?

Thank you SO much for this. I suffered from infertility and pregnancy loss 20 years ago before God and science worked hand-in-hand to bring us our now 17-year-old daughter through IVF. I felt everything you so beautifully described. And I was ANGRY. Angry at my co-worker's pregnant teenage daughter, angry at people who told me to relax, it would happen, and angry in particular at God. I thankfully had a very wise pastor who told me it was okay to be angry, that God could take it. But I wish I would have told people what you did in this piece. I'm going to share it hoping it will help others – both those who are struggling with infertility and those who want to support them. And I will pray for you and your partner. My experience led me to believe not that there is a reason for everything (I can't believe in a God who would intentionally cause pain to teach a lesson of some sort), but that God creates beauty from ashes. I will pray for strength and hope and the peace and comfort of God's presence as you wait for your own beauty to be made known. Thank you once again for sharing this part of your heart and your journey.
Thank you for this article! Thank you.
thank you for this !
We miscarried a few weeks back and Mother's Day is a sore subject , we often feel alone in this
So thank you for sharing
Thank you very much for this!
I would love to see the poem that was used in worship, would you be willing to share it?
As I was scrolling through Facebook, I happened to crossed paths with this story. I will say that I read this twice, the second time a little slower.
I believe in God with all of my heart. And I will admit that I was angry with Him at one point. Friends, family, and coworkers have shared their griefs with me and have also said those same words; "It will happen!" … "you'll get pregnant! In God's time. God has a plan."
I will be printing this story and framing it to remind myself that I am not the only one struggling, and to remind myself not to just pray for my husband and I, but for those out there in the world struggling just like us.
I'm starting to think that God might just want us to adopt a child that needs just as much love as we would give our own flesh and blood.
Thank you so much for sharing your story!
Great article!
After our stillbirth, I gave myself permission to be absent from church on Mother's Day. I simply told the congregation that Pr. Angela has a prior commitment (I just left out the part about being at home curled up in a ball and in tears.)
Thank you for the practical tips for ministry!

Doug Burr Makes Magnet A Mix Tape.
Like Sarah Jaffe before him, Doug Burr has been enlisted this morning by Magnet magazine to make a mixtape aims at helping the magazine's online readers get a feel for the Denton folk hero's music. Also: The site's offering two free mp3's from Burr's great new disc, O Ye Devastator--two songs we've already offered as downloads here, sure, but whatever. Still a good look.
Also a good look? In addition to dropping a couple names you'd expect Burr to drop onto his mix--Costello, Waits, Springsteen, Bonnie "Prince Billie--he also adds in Denton's own Lift to Experience, who he calls "near-legendary" while referring to frontman Josh Pearson as a friend.
Meanwhile, says Magnet of Burr:
Is there anything that goes better with impending summer than fresh Americana folk music, complete with banjos, slide guitar and heart-wrenching lyrics? Luckily, Denton, Texas, native Doug Burr is here with his third record, O Ye Devastator (Spune/Velvet Blue Music), just in time for long drives with the windows rolled down and days lounging on the beach. We have a feeling that by August, our copy of the album will be pretty worn out.
A good look, indeed. Read the whole piece here.

Hi everyone,
Does the steel which will undergo heat treatment (normalizing) to improve its mechanical properties will change its chemical properties also?
We have a vendor that have surplus of ASTM A572 steel but need to normalized the steel in order to pass charpy test. Is it still required to submit another CMTR of the steel after the heat treatment? Or the original CMTR is sufficient?
Thanks in advance,
A S Quilala

While Hollywood keeps toiling away on a live-action version of Akira, some talented fans decided to take a crack at their own version of the iconic sci-fi tale. The result is pretty much perfect.
Fans of the 1990s CGI sci-fi series ReBoot have been patiently waiting for the beloved classic to get another shot for decades now. Well, the time has finally arrived.

Toolbox Extras
Useful Extras for Toolbox
This page contains downloadable extras for Toolbox. These include language encodings and packages for specialized applications. Some of these have been supplied by Toolbox users or consultants. For this reason, the Toolbox support group cannot guarantee they work correctly, and cannot promise to support them. But if you have problems with them, please let us know. We may be able to help you, and your reports may help the authors to improve the packages.
Language Encodings
A language encoding file tells Toolbox the details of a specific encoding of a writing system. It contains information about sort sequence, case, punctuation, font, and keyboarding system. It will save you time if you can find a language encoding already made for your writing system. If the one you need is not included here, you may be able to adjust one of these to do what you need.
To use a language encoding, extract it from the zip file, and put it in the Toolbox settings folder of your project. The settings folder is the one that contains your Toolbox project file. Close Toolbox while you do this. The next time you open Toolbox, the new language encoding will be available for use. You can see it in the list of Language Encodings under Project. Note that the name of a language encoding inside Toolbox may be different from the file name.

It was a little disappointing knowing I made a pretzel and they don't cook it for you.they did show us how to do it and baking would have been an extra hoot.
This place closed sometime ago. I traveled out of my way yo go, and I was told that it had closed up shop.
This place says that you can twist your own pretzel...and you can, but they won't bake it for you to eat. To be fair, we were told this before we paid for anything. The pretzels we purchased were good.
I was able to get to the store before they closed and luckily they had some pretzels in the warmer. The shop is kind of bare bones which is fine with me. It shows they just concentrate on their product. The girl was very nice who helped me. The pretzels were fresh and really good. They are big and are...
Small shop right in center of Amish country. Great pretzels and conveniently situated next to other shops and attractions.
the beer mustard and the soft pretzel was so good and the tour didn't happen it so friendly intercrouse is a good place to do things and the see scenes of the amish country
We stopped here for a snack while visiting the area. The shop is very small and does not offer a great variety, however we did purchase regular pretzels and sugar cinnamon pretzels and they were absolutely delicious! We did not realize there were tours available or we would have stayed. There were no signs regarding tours in the shop. You...
Stopped by here while visiting the Lancaster area (not too far from Kitchen Kettle Village). The pretzels tasted average (not a lot of taste to them). My son and I enjoyed the root beer mustard and root beer on tap (nice touches). My daughter was disappointed in how the cheese tasted. It was beer cheese and it was very watery....
We have always had very good experiences here, however this time we did not. The store itself was bare, with nothing really on the shelves, as well as around 4 pretzels made. There was no dough for pretzel making and staff was not very friendly. Hoping that since it was off season, maybe this was just an off day.
Hey knbsmom-
You may have noticed that we are a different store than you've visited in the past. We don't carry spices, cinnamon, or greeting cards. Just pretzels. We've got full shelves of hard pretzels, chocolate covered pretzels, and a few gift items (including great t-shirts and ornaments for the holidays.)
We keep our warmer with FRESH pretzels- not old...
We stopped there as part of a senior bus trip. The tour was very informative, and personally I enjoyed rolling the pretzels, I also know that I could never do it for a living. I have no patience. The women who demonstrated had the patience of a saint showing and reshowing the two techniques. Kids would be in their glory.

text: So I was off riding just around town and found this amazing, well I would call it like an Enduro Fun Park. Just behind Nakorn Ping Hospital near the Reservoir....... They had jumps, single track trails, and some real steep runs, as well as these like practice berms to run up and down.... I was amazed that it's only 20 minutes from the city and thought it might be for BMX though I was cruising around on the 250. Anyone been up in here that does Moto-Cross...... So after an hour I was beat and realizing that all this area was a bit of a higher experience level then I can ride and made me think I shouldn't ride alone. Though i don't know anyone that Moto-Cross in Chiang Mai.... Anyways, I thought just to race around and track the trails on the GPS.... Was doing about 40 KMH and it got real hard and rocky when I went down, and went down hard. The one piece of gear I didn't wear that day, a good jacket with arm and torso padding... Well, when I stood up I saw the white meat in small open part of my arm and blood was pouring out. Being alone and mostly I always treat or worry about the worst case scenario. Cut vein, so I grab a bandage out of the bag and put a quick tourniquet on and tried riding to the road. Later crashed again and started to lose feeling in my arm. Thinking maybe broken put a splint on (though it was just the lack of blood from my tourniquet lol )... Anyways, walked through a rice field with some kids and a backo driver gave me a lift to the hospital. 9 stiches later, not broken, just a bad laceration that was a small bit down to the bone. Anyways lesson learned. Where torso gear when it becomes technical and ride with a buddy on the hard stuff..... So will be healing for a few days and looks like I'll be off to work in couple weeks, though looking forward to getting back by mid June after working and tearing it up again. I had more pictures of this fun park / BMX / Enduro area; though I've been having a real pain in the &^% getting photobucket or image shack to work today.... I'm really curious if anyone knows this place and rides on a 250 dirt bike there? They gave me Morphin..... 3 X-rays, 9 stitches, cleaning, grand total 720 baht; love Thailand.

Dallas Theater Center's Kevin Moriarty Ain't Going Anywhere. At Least Not For a While.
Dallas Theater Center Artistic Director Kevin Moriarty
Danny Fulgencio
Back in June '07, the Dallas Theater Center introduced its sixth artistic director -- some dude named Kevin Moriarty, who was, at the time, a theater teacher at Brown University and the summer-season-runner at the Hangar Theatre in Ithaca, New York. As he told our Elaine Liner upon his arrival: "What I want to do at the Dallas Theater Center is be part of a wider arts community. Theater should be rejuvenating, restorative and fun."
Three years and a 2010 Best of Dallas nod later, the guy's become an invaluable asset -- and, perhaps, part of the permanent collection. This morning, the DTC announced that it's extending Moriarty's contract through August 2014, welcome news as we head into the new year. Says board chair Frank Risch in the announcement that follows: "We are beyond thrilled to have Kevin Moriarty as artistic director for at least another four years. Kevin is a wonderfully talented artist and inspiring leader who has had an enormous impact on the company's many successes since his arrival. We are truly fortunate too have an artistic director with the vision, ambition and creative energy that is evident in his work, and we look forward too continuing this artistic journey with Kevin for many years to come."
And it probably didn't hurt that even with such high-profile and expensive project such as the revisal of It's a Bird...It's a Plane...It's Superman!, the DTC still managed to post a budget surplus this year.

June 02, 2013
Went looking for cork or bamboo flooring for our downstairs family room which is a concrete slab - there is no moisture problem and we were not looking for "cheap," just something that would be durable and hold up for the next 10 years or so as the carpet that was currently there had. Salesman talked us into this product and I followed all directions to a "T" right down to having all of the boxes in the room where I was working laid out all over so they would acclimate. At night, when I would have to stop, I would cover up the exposed seams with the paper from between the boards. I rolled all of the seams as I went and even laid weights on the smaller pieces where I had funny cuts. But, almost as soon as I was done, seams started buckling and coming apart. I then went back and followed the guidelines to fix by heating with a blowvdryer and re-rolling; but this did not do anything. So, I called the 800 number from the book and they sent 4 bottles of Allure Adhesive (which is like crazy glue). Needless to say, it hasn't worked - the seams are still coming up like crazy. I am just wondering how much trouble getting the warranty to kick in is going to be?

The Docker Way
"In today's world IT is all about speed and innovation, if you don't have speed you cannot innovate, if you cannot innovate you will perish."
There is no disputing that Integra gives you the ability to move extremely fast. Today, we are pushing things even faster by making Integra available as Docker containers. Our judo installer rocks as it is:
bash <(curl -s http://integra.install.emitrom.com)
...which pulls down the Integra bits, creates services, and will even install the vCenter plugin for you. How much more awesome can awesome get? It is hard to imagine, but containers give us precisely that: we made something great, even better. Take a look:
docker pull integra/reactor
docker run -i -t -d integra/reactor
And you are done. No dependencies to install, nothing to configure, nothing to worry about... and this is just the tip of the iceberg. Imagine one day using Integra itself to deploy Integra providers; that day is not far off so keep a watchful eye open.
You can get all the details about Integra, Docker and Kubernetes directly from our friend Keith Tenzer's blog.
Innovate or perish.

Possibilities you've never imagined
There is something you've been telling yourself forever you cannot accomplish. Today, prove yourself wrong.
A new moment has arrived, and past assumptions no longer have to hold you back. Decide to be free of those limitations you've imposed on yourself.
See now that every big and little thing can inspire you, support you, motivate, encourage and empower you. Today, take the first step toward the accomplishment you've been putting off for so long.
Every past experience has prepared you for today, when you can now move forward in a new way. Feel the power of the momentum you've already established and point it in the direction you choose.
Push your expectations beyond where they have been. See possibilities you've never before imagined and see yourself fulfilling them.
Enjoy watching yourself do what you used to think you could not. Let the satisfaction of achievement energize you to achieve much more.
