Just received an update from Ancestry regarding the North Nottinghamshire Register of Voters 1885 which was placed online last year. Not all records on Ancestry are indexed and these Register of Voters was one such dataset, however an index to this valuable set of genealogy records is now available.
The registers list all residents who were eligible to vote in the year 1885, the voter's name, address and the type of property and it's location that gave the right to vote. Names of landlords if the property was rented are also included. The index has been compiled by the Ancestry World Archives Project volunteers which means the index is free to all not just Ancestry subscribers, but to see scans of the original records you will need to hold a subscription.
As I've said above not all records are indexed on Ancestry so they won't show up on name searches, to see just what is available to search page by page then go to the Card Catalogue and search under the location you are interested in. I've written several posts on this before and here are links to two of my posts. Go, take a look and find family history treasure.

Matthew Hayden and the Tiwi College project
03/12/2012 , 10:46 PM by Dominic Knight
Matthew Hayden is a legend in Australian cricket, and since he hung up his baggy green he has devoted his considerable energies to a number of charity and media projects, many of which have focussed on helping indigenous people and encouraging Australians to lead a healthier life.
After visiting the Tiwi Islands to go fishing, Hayden saw a need to get involved in promoting education on the island. This led to the foundation of Tiwi College, which has an extensive garden which Hayden has helped to develop, continuing a long-term interest in developing communities through sustainable, healthy food.
Here's how the Tiwi College project is described on their website:
Tiwi College, located at Pickertaramoor on Melville Island is an exciting development designed to provide quality secondary education for all Tiwi young people. The college is owned and operated by the Tiwi people. The policy making body is the Tiwi Education Board, consisting of eight Tiwi men. This initiative is the fulfillment of a dream for the Tiwi Islands to have their own College.
Tiwi College is a remote Aboriginal Secondary Boarding School and a day school for a small number of Primary children. The students are picked up from communities across Melville and Bathurst Island each Monday and brought to the College to participate in 24-hour holistic learning. They return each Friday, many crossing Apsley Strait by ferry to Bathurst Island, after a 40 minute trip in a 4WD Troop Carrier.
Many of the students belong to a growing cohort who have experienced disadvantage in terms health, education, services and future prospects in comparison to their peers in mainstream Australia. The College provides an opportunity for those students who are happy to leave their immediate community and be at boarding school while still on the traditional lands of the Tiwi Islands.
The College provides a supportive and nurturing environment for schooling that develops the student's sense of self-worth, enthusiasm for learning and optimism for the future. Developing close partnerships with training providers and Island industries offer students opportunities for pathways into careers and secure futures.
Matthew Hayden called into the Evening Show from the Tiwi Islands. Because it was a momentous day in Australian cricket, with the team losing its series against South Africa and his old comrade-in-arms Ricky Ponting playing his final innings, I began by asking him his thoughts on the day at the WACA. We then chatted in detail about the college project and what he's been up to on this trip to the Tiwis.

I was getting really bored but got lucky yesterday with drops and enchants, so it boosted my sheet damage from 300k to 660k. Now I moved on to a new difficulty tier and can concentrate on polishing my build.
Things like that really pull you back in. :3

why bother with D3 for $19.99 when u can get Path of Exile for $0??
Be warned - I am a major player of Regnum Online the mmo. I've been playing it for about 2 years and rarely go without logging in at least once a day. You can also look at good alternatives to Regnum such ase Aion online and Aika Online.
Lol, Diablo 3 has been available for less then 15euro's for the past 6months
Quick question, you got to buy D3 and the expansion separate right?
Be careful of what you say, tomorrow or today, for the words you now speak, may become the poison your enemies later seek; truth.

|Our wedding
|a vacation after the first surgery
The next few hours are a bit of blur. EKGs, tears, phone calls, requests for information, frustration, confusion, questions, blood tests, wondering if the fact that he was pushed to the front of the line for an angiogram was a good thing or a bad sign. More waiting, more calls, more anxiety, a brief smile because Julie Kavner (ie: Marge Simpson) was TAWKing loudly into a cell phone next to me, bare bones information from a doctor and then the words, "your husband has had a heart attack".
I didn't hear much after that. He was alive. That was all I cared about. Half my brain was trying to calculate how I was going to get home to get the kids to sleep and settled down, and half my brain was trying to process what had happened and how we were going to handle what comes next.
The last 4 days have been hell. I am scared and exhausted and stretched too thin; my mind tends to skip ahead to what ifs. I also find it hard to ask for help and am just so overwhelmed that I don't even know what to ask for even though everyone I know has offered (and then I feel guilty because I'm not letting people help me). Mostly, the last few days have been so hard because my husband means the world to me and to our kids and the thought of losing him is just incomprehensible.
|my love
For now, I just want to remind all of you reading this that even when your partner is doing everything "wrong" or is frustrating or doesn't "get it"...remember how fragile life is and how very easily it could all be taken away. Leave no words of love left unsaid and remember that you are incredibly lucky for all that you have been given.
Thank you for reading!

|Topic Review (Newest First)
Everyone has mentioned good things. But, did the vet just "look" at them or did he xray? That is the only way to really know what is going on and what type of treatments are possible for whatever is bothering her, whether HD or some other type of issue going on.
Get an xray done if it hasn't been done already. No vet can look at a dog's hips from the outside and say if they are"good or bad".
When you say 'hop' does she run with both feet together?
What about backing up out of a space - like if she went behind the furniture and there was no way to walk forward?
What about stairs - when she comes down a flight, does it seem like she can stop any time or is it look out below she's coming down?
If you take her hind foot and knuckle it over so she's standing on the furry part opposed to her pads, does she leave it there a minute or does she immediately put it back the right way?
How's her weight? Sometimes us ladies pack on a few pounds in the middle age. If you question her hips, you want her as lean as possible, less stress on the joints.
My dog has HD which affected her to the point of not being able to run for more than a few minutes without having to lay down.. She can run, gait, walk full burst out run for a 1.5 mile walk with having to lay down only once or not at all.
The supplements I give her for for her hips currently are: fish oil omega 3, cosequin DS, traumeel and zeel to be added soon. For now. I was also adding a new herbal from a vet but its $100 for something that will last about a month.. I might add it in again but can't afford it right now- it was called Kan Herbs - Benefit Hips and Knees. I will start it up as soon as i can afford it on the monthly basis. But if you can afford that one too i would give it a go for a few months to see any benefit it is giving. I do advice if you add things, to add one at at time. Not everything works for every dog chemistry, you need to figure out what works for your dogs.
Fish oil is fine to start with anything else if you havent already started that. I like Cosequin DS and do think it has helped her a lot. the traumeel has helped tremendously.
|Mary Beth
|For supplements, I give NuPro Silver, K-9 Arthoflex, and Nordic Naturals Omega 3 Pet gels. If she doesn't already have one, a good orthopodic dog bed can help with that stiffness in getting up.
My 8 year old GSD hip questions
Hello all,
I am very new to this forum and before I get blasted about not searching already posted threads I've looked and looked and there's is waaay too much to sift through..
I have just a few concerns and would like to hear from more experienced owners what kind of problems she is in for if it's a problem at all.
My dog (Roxy) has no papers or anything like that and as far as I know she is pure bred. Now i got her when I was 15 and she has been around before my wife and 2 kids even came in the picture and I dread thinking of the day she's gotta go.. So her health and wellness is on the top of our priority list.
Her hips don't seem bad. The vet said they are fine but all he did was look. She doesn't hop going up steps or anything. Just sometimes it seems like she struggles when gettin up from lying down. She has a sway left to right with her hips when she walks but her running form seems perfect.
Is the "hop" in the hind legs the major sign of hip dysplasia?
And what else should I be looking for?
Any recommendations on supplements or vitamins?
I know these are basic questions I can google and find answers to. But every case is different and I'd like to know how much it differed between different dogs and owners. Thanks in advance for any help or info..

The Micro Café dining unit is located in this building. You can also eat at Noyer Centre across the street, or visit nearby Woodworth Commons food court.
Studebaker hosts a variety of events for students, including an annual tournament called Human Foosball and Stu-Stock, an end-of-the-year celebration.
Palmer/Davidson was named for two professors who were involved with Ball State during its early history.
Claude Palmer was the head of the music department. In his 20 years at Ball State, he contributed much to both the building of the school's music program and the development of Muncie's cultural life.
Ethelyn Davidson was an associate professor of education at Ball State from 1930 to 1959 and became the first Ball State graduate for whom a residence hall was named. She wrote a series of handwriting books for children in grades 1-8 titled I Learn to Write, which were adopted as official textbooks in several states.

Home > News & Events > Events Calendar > Improving Patient Safety: Barcoding of Unit Dose Pharmaceuticals
This seminar will be moderated by M-RCBG Senior Fellow Lisa
Robinson with guest Calvin Franz of Eastern Research Group. Email
email@example.com to RSVP.
Description: In 1999, the Institute of Medicine report, To Err is Human, estimated that 44,000 to 98,000 deaths may occur annually in U.S. hospitals from preventable medical errors. Spurred by this report, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) proposed a regulation requiring bar codes on unit dose prescription product labels. While FDA cannot mandate the use of bar code technology in hospitals, the regulation was intended to prevent medication errors by facilitating adoption. ERG estimated the pharmaceutical industry costs to place such a bar code on all pharmaceutical products and also estimated the cost of hospital investment in bar code systems, including hardware, software, and potential productivity impacts, as well as potentially offsetting cost savings. In addition, ERG estimated the reduction in morbidity and mortality attributable to adverse drug events and willingness-to-pay to avoid such events, and the net benefits resulting from an increased technology adoption rate.
Presenter: Calvin Franz is a Ph.D. economist with 18 years'
experience performing economic regulatory and policy analyses for a
wide variety of clients, including the U.S. FDA, U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services, U.S. Department of Labor, U.S. EPA,
Brigham & Women's Hospital, and Harvard School of Public
Health. Since completing the bar code project, Dr. Franz has
increasingly specialized in performing cost-benefit and
cost-effectiveness analyses of healthcare issues. As a member of
multi-disciplinary research teams, he has performed a cost-benefit
analysis of the adoption of computerized physician order entry;
estimated the cost-effectiveness of interventions to improve
colorectal cancer screening; assessed the cost of iatrogenic
injuries; and examined the impact of community-wide implementation
of electronic health records on healthcare utilization.

I haven't measured the temps like Jeff, but my wood hived bees do beard more in the heat of the day while my foam hives beard more at night. There seems to be about a 6 hour thermal time constant in my foam hives. They seem to reach peak temps after dark; say 11pm.The foam should definitely retain heat inside as Jeff says, but on the other hand it also blocks the solar heat radiation from getting into the hive in the first place as Derekm suggests.

Tom Pierson has been training horses professionally since 1981. He graduated from the University of Wisconsin-River Falls with a bachelor's degree in Animal Science in 1978.
While attending college, he interned for Jack Brainard in Rochester, MN and showed his first reining horse, Spanish Lace I. This mare was responsible for Tom's lifelong interest in reining horses.
He owned and operated Pierson Performance Horses from 1981 to 1995. He was also the Horse Herdsman at UWRF and helped teach the colt training class for 10 years. In 1995, he moved to Michigan as the trainer at Cold Spring Farm in Maple City.
"If a horse has food, water, and room to exercise, he is content. When humans introduce goals and plans that go far beyond a horse's basic need to survive, we must recognize what the horse understands today. This will eliminate the frustration of asking for things before he has learned them. This has little to do with a horse's age or amount of training, and everything to do with what the horse understands today." -Tom-

Discussion in 'December 2007' started by Dlev59, Dec 16, 2007.
You should become less irritated once Hot Rod gets into the flow of things.
The officiating seemed pretty bad in both directions to me. CB did get away with a couple of plays in the third quarter--one where he assaulted Rondo and stole the ball without getting called for a foul, and the one where he drew a foul while shooting a 3 was questionable as well. But the Celtics clearly got some calls going back their way late in the 4th--Allen hitting a 3 that was really a 2, Sheed getting called for his 5th on Garnett when there was no contact whatsoever. If the Pistons had ended up blowing this game, I would have been mad about those late calls, but I wouldn't have chalked up the loss to the refs because I know the Pistons got the better end of some bad calls earlier.
What a good game! One of my highlights of the night was at the 6 minute mark of the 4th quarter. Celts are bringing the ball up the court and KG sets a hard pick on AA near midcourt...AA gets up right away and throws his body into KG! I like his intensity! I was glad to see Maxiell and AA get into this game and both play in the 4th. Though it seems it would have been a great opportunity to also get Amir some PT in a playoff-like atmosphere without the fear of some mistakes costing us a playoff loss. I expect Chauncey, Rip, Sheed and Tay to play 35+ minutes in a game like this, but I don't see a reason for Dyess doing it. Of the Big 3 it seems clear that Pierce is most likely to hoist up bad shots just for the sake of getting his shots. It also seemed like KG didn't want to shoot in the last few minutes of the game. Just like Sheed, he should be calling for the ball in the post at that point.
I got to watch the second half and that was a highlight for sure...also Sheed's stuff of Perkins under the basket. I loved that.
For those who didn't see this game, the third quarter was actually pretty brutal. Both teams were committing terrible turnovers and generally not executing anything properly. The final score for the quarter was only 16-13, in favor of the Pistons. Both teams generally executed better in the 4th quarter, but it was the Pistons' D that made the difference.
It was refreshing to see the Pistons get some calls in Boston. They did seem to try and make it fair for the most part. Perhaps this is a result of the ref scandle.
Not nearly enough props for Hunter IMO. GREAT job, Hunter. Hunter changed the momentum single-handily. And he gave us 5 points, which is never expected out of him. Here in New England, some radio callers criticizing Doc Rivers for his coaching and in-game adjustments. Something tells me Doc will be watching those Cavs-Pistons playoff tapes and Mr. Billups will see some traps the next time Boston and Detroit meet.
I agree about Hunter. If he could play like that more often, I'd be right back in his camp. But as far as the calls, I honestly thought we were getting screwed. Sheed's first foul was bogus. The foul they called on him when he set a normal screen was terrible. The phantom call at the end when he was guarding KG? It's like they were trying to set him off. The worst part about most of the whistles were how late they were. We were already fast breaking half the time before they called them.
I told you we would blow them out. - - - if Tay got 4 pts.
McCrapsky has been working on his adjectives and adverbs. Maybe he took a writing course: The Pistons struggled mightily against the stingy Celtics defense, shooting an icy 40 percent. Good job, Chris!
Take the "y" off his keeboard and he'd be screwed.
Instead of what he wrote I would have thought a Detroit News writer would have written something like: The Pistons took advantage of the Celtics "Pack The Paint" defense by getting many open three point opportunities and making 9 out of 20 compared to the Celtics making only 4 out of 14 enabling the Pistons to beat the Celtics for the 14th time in the last 15 tries McKrapsky is a definite troll
I thought we were getting screwed too. Particularly sheed guarding garnett -- it seemed as though subconsciously the refs are so used to garnett making a play (like finishing near the bucket or something) that when he doesn't there's an automatic assumption that kicks in that he must have been followed, which may also be why the calls seemed to come late. the only real break i thought we got was when rondo was trying to keep the bouncing ball away from chauncey and it seemed like chauncey sort of shoved him to be able to get a hold of the ball.
There were bad calls going both ways, I'd say neither team got the advantage on the whistles.
I agree with that. Especially since we got the last call with 0.1 sec's left. There is no way that would have been called in the old days at Boston.
Probably a no call in playoffs as well.
That play would always get called. The defender was in the air coming down backwards with his big butt right into CB's grill.
Its hard to say how that would be called because it looked a lot worse live than on the replay. It was a foul but on the replay it appeared that Billups also did a good job selling it. Adds more fuel to the rivalry I suppose.
too late to remember my game thoughts, but this was a great regular season game. it kind of felt like a game 7, really nerve-racking from start to finish.
I've seen guys get defenders in the air and go for the foul and the foul is on the Ofense. Only once tho.
Separate names with a comma.

RANCHO PALOS VERDES -- A 49-year-old Rancho Palos Verdes man was caught at Oakland International Airport with a watch that looked like a bomb was jailed, and more details of the incident emerged today.
Geoffrey McGann, 49, was caught with the device and even stranger items in his luggage Thursday evening, TSA agents said.
The "elaborate watch" was buried beneath McGann's coat in a luggage inspection area, and it had been attached to wires, a toggle switch, fuses and a circuit board, TSA agents said.
In addition, McGann's boots were two sizes too big and were stuffed with layers of homemade insoles, which allowed for large cavities where someone would be able to hide items, Alameda County sheriff's Sgt. J.D. Nelson told the San Jose Mercury-News.
McGann was also wearing a military-style shirt with a built-in tourniquet in the sleeves, often used by soldiers to stop bleeding if they suffer an arm injury, the sergeant said.
He was arrested for felony possession of materials to make an explosive device and possibly remains at Santa Rita Jail in Dublin on $150,000 bail. But he disappeared from the online inmate locator internet page today,
According to a dispatcher at the Alameda County Sheriff's Department, the agency's online inmate locator is down and the watch commander, Sgt. Howard Barron, could not be reached for comment.
McGann allegedly took off his watch while going through a checkpoint at Terminal 2 about 7:45 p.m Thursday and put in the security bin along with his carry-on luggage and covered it with coat, Nelson said.
The bomb squad arrived within ten minutes after the 7:45 p.m. Thursday call and after examining McGann's watch, but found no explosive threats, Nelson told the San Jose Mercury News.
McGann was trying to board a Southwest Airlines flight back to his home in Rancho Palos Verdes, according to ABC News.

Born: December 8, 1993
Position: Defender
A left back who enjoys getting forward at any opportunity, Samir has risen through the youth ranks at Arsenal from the age of eight.
The pacy teenager, who was born in east London and has a Moroccan father, made 22 appearances for the Under-18s before breaking into the reserves where he made two appearances.
He is equally comfortable in a more advanced role but has spent the last two seasons refining his defensive game at full back. Samir also featured in the FA Youth Cup last season.Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Massachusetts cracks down on three more pharmacies
Massachusetts pharmacy operations have been under close scrutiny since New England Compounding Center, a specialty pharmacy, shipped thousands of vials of a tainted steroid to medical facilities throughout the United States. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 36 people have died and 541 have been injured from injections of methylprednisolone acetate, a drug typically used to ease back pain.
Massachusetts regulators said they ordered the temporary shutdown of one pharmacy, Oncomed Pharmaceuticals, on Nov. 21, over concerns about how it stored chemotherapy drugs. It also ordered partial shutdowns of Pallimed Solutions, after it used improper components in preparing one drug, and the Whittier Pharmacist for violations in its sterile compounding operations.
All three pharmacies are working with regulators and are expected to reopen once the concerns are addressed, said David Kibbe, a spokesman for the Massachusetts Department of Public Health. Representatives of the three pharmacies could not be reached for immediate comment.
The DPH also announced three new members to fill seats on the Massachusetts pharmacy board. Unlike past appointments, the new board members are not necessarily pharmacists. The new picks are executives from a large health-care system, a large health insurer and a rehabilitation and skilled nursing center.
"These respected health care professionals will use their experience to bring change to the Board of Pharmacy to enhance our oversight of this industry," Interim Commissioner Lauren Smith said in a press release. "We expect additional changes to the board after the Commission on Pharmacy Compounding issues its recommendations to Gov. Deval Patrick at the end of the month."
This week, the Massachusetts Board of Pharmacy held a public hearing on emergency regulations that were put in place by Patrick's administration to enhance monitoring and scrutiny of the compounding industry.

Any competitive Airball fields anywhere?
Posted 09 October 2010 - 02:43 AM
My question to anyone in this state is are there any fields that are even trying to care about their jobs, and the players? Anyone who actually supports Airball, or competitive/ tourney players in SC!?

the only place that I know of is PBC Greenville. They are part of the CFOA and have pretty legit fields. I am in cola right now too so I am also feeling your pain. I am new to the columbia area. What is the best place to go around here?
If you`re looking for somewhere close by Ball Busters is about the only place. They have a single airball field and a few other wooded fields. Other than that you have to drive for a while.

I heard triggertyme isn't doing too good. I was at ballbusters the other day how often you play there?
Man I've played there the last three saturdays in a row, but that's been thanks to tax return season. Eventually that well will run dry, but me and a buddy of mine stumbled upon an area just down the street from my neightborhood, tucked back into some woods where somebody dumped several hundred tires, so we set up a fairly large course, made a couple dozen bunkers using the tires and pallets, and other stuff, and I gotta say it's a pretty good little course. I got a group of people coming to play it this Sat, weather permitting. If all goes well and we don't get kicked out( which I don't think we will, it's in such a well hidden area, it was pure luck we found it) we'll be trying to get some more people together. I think I'll be using my Gopro Camera this weekend, so I'll post a vid of some of the action.

O.K. I have decided to tackle this one as it has been on my to-do list for QUITE some time. I am building a full-size,usable Speeder Bike. (doh!!! :P)
Anyway, probably going to do a Frankensteining of sorts, kind of like Pepakura (kind of) for parts, with some metal-work, some fiberglassed cardboard, some scratchbuilding, and the complete demolishing of an old Yamaha dirt bike.
I will start work soon, but I have a request, can any one put up some REALLY good reference pics???
I hope to have this, my Fett, and a biker scout costume done by SDCC next year, as I will entering the masquerade.

All Premier League sides will have to adhere to new regulations concerning the makeup of their squad this season.
Every club will have to name a first-team squad of no more than 25, of which a maximum of 17 may not be homegrown players.
The Premier League defines a homegrown player as a player who "irrespective of his nationality or age, has been registered with any club affiliated to the Football Association or the Welsh Football Association for a period, continuous or not, of three entire seasons or 36 months prior to his 21st birthday (or the end of the season during which he turns 21)."
Therefore the likes of Denilson, Gael Clichy, Nicklas Bendtner, Cesc Fabregas and Alex Song all count as homegrown players, as well as the likes of Jack Wilshere, Aaron Ramsey and Kieran Gibbs.
In addition to this squad of 25 players, each club may use as many under-21 players as they wish. The player must have been born on or after January 1, 1989 to be classed as 'Under-21' for this season.
Therefore players such as Theo Walcott and Aaron Ramsey do not have to be included in the primary squad, potentially freeing up spaces for older players.
Arsenal's current first-team squad contains 26 players, of which 13 are counted as homegrown, and seven are Under-21s.
The breakdown is as follows.
1 Manuel Almunia (May 19, 1977)
2 Abou Diaby (May 11, 1986)
3 Bacary Sagna (February 14, 1983)
4 Cesc Fabregas (May 4, 1987)
5 Thomas Vermaelen (November 14, 1985)
6 Laurent Koscielny (September 10, 1985)
7 Tomas Rosicky (October 4, 1980)
8 Samir Nasri (June 26, 1987)
10 Robin Van Persie (August 6, 1983)
11 Carlos Vela (March 1, 1989)*
14 Theo Walcott (March 16, 1989)*
15 Denilson (February 16, 1988)
16 Aaron Ramsey (December 26, 1990)*
17 Alex Song (September 9, 1987)
19 Jack Wilshere (January 1, 1992)*
20 Johan Djourou (January 18, 1987)
21 Lukasz Fabianski (April 18, 1985)
22 Gael Clichy (July 26, 1985)
23 Andrey Arshavin (May 29, 1981)
24 Vito Mannone (March 2, 1988)
27 Emmanuel Eboue (June 4, 1983)
28 Kieran Gibbs (September 26, 1989)*
29 Marouane Chamakh (January 10, 1984)
30 Armand Traore (October 8, 1989)*
52 Nicklas Bendtner (January 16, 1988)
53 Wojciech Szczesny (April 18, 1990)*
Players in BOLD = homegrown
* = Under-21 for season 2010/11
(date in brackets is player's date of birth)
Clubs must confirm their squads at the end of August when the transfer window closes, and can only be altered (without limitation) during the January transfer window.
Premier League Chief Executive Richard Scudamore believes the England team will ultimately reap the reward of the new ruling, which he feels in unlikely to encourage clubs to hoard young overseas players.
"It's not in the club's interests to stockpile players. It will make buying homegrown talent more attractive," he said.
"We're not going down the route of a nationality test but what this will mean is that you just can't buy a team from abroad.
"We think it will give clubs an extra incentive to invest in youth. We think that one of the benefits will be that it will help the England team."
Former Sports Minister Gerry Sutcliffe welcomed the Premier League's new quota as being good for the long-term health of football.
Sutcliffe said: "I welcome the Premier League's introduction of a homegrown player quota for squads and its implementation of strengthened financial reporting rules.
"These moves will encourage clubs to develop and bring through young talent and help ensure clubs are financially stable."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

If you're seeking ways to build network-based applications or XML-based web services, Microsoft provides most of the tools you'll need. XML is integrated into the .NET Framework and Visual Studio .NET, but if you want to get a grasp on how .NET and XML actually work together, that's a different story. With .NET & XML, you can get under the hood to see how the .NET Framework implements XML, giving you the skills to write understandable XML-based code that interoperates with code written with other tools, and even other languages..NET & XML starts by introducing XML and the .NET Framework, and then teaches you how to read and write XML before moving on to complex methods for manipulating, navigating, transforming, and constraining it. To demonstrate the power of XML in .NET, author Niel Bornstein builds a simple hardware store inventory system throughout the book. As you move from chapter to chapter, you'll absorb increasingly complex information until you have enough knowledge to successfully program your own XML-based applications. This tutorial also contains a quick reference to the API, plus appendices present additional .NET assemblies that you can use to work with XML, and how to work with the .NET XML configuration file format.One study puts the potential market for new software based on XML at or near $100 billion over the next five years. The .NET Framework gives you a way to become a part of it. But to use XML and .NET effectively, you need to understand how these two technologies work together. This book gives you the insight to take full advantage of the power the two provide.

Bornstein, with over ten years' experience in software development, has worked in diverse areas such as corporate information systems, client-server application development, and web-hosted applications.

Our look is the result of reader comments, our own experimentation, and feedback from distribution channels. Distinctive covers complement our distinctive approach to technical topics, breathing personality and life into potentially dry subjects. The animal on the cover of .NET and XML is a Canada goose (Branta canadensis). The Canada goose can be easily recognized by its black head, long neck, and whitish cheek patches. The underparts of the goose vary in color from light pearl gray, to chestnut, to blackish brown. There are at least 40, and possibly more, types of Canada geese. These groups also range in size. The largest Canada geese have a very deep honking voice, while the smallest have a high-pitched cackle. Males and females look similar, with the males being larger. The weights of the various types can range from 1.1 to 8 kilograms, and they can grow to a length of 43 inches, attaining a wingspan of 68 inches.When geese migrate, they often fly at a considerable altitude. Long-distance flying by the flock is in a "V" formation. Flying just off the wing tips of the leader cuts turbulence, and creates a slipstream and a suction that lets the geese fly with less energy expended. The goose pilots take turns; one will drop back in the "V" to rest while another takes over.Breeding season is from April to June. The pairs wait until the snow and ice melt before they begin nesting. Canada geese mate in their third year and pairs usually remain together as long as both birds are alive. There is a tendency for females to return to their own birth site to nest, and nesting areas are usually in marshes along sloughs or lakeshores. Both males and females collect debris for the nest. The female wiggles back and forth in the debris to shape the nest to her liking; she also plucks her down to line the nest. The female lays between 2 and 11 cream-colored eggs, and incubates them for 25 to 30 days while the male stands guard nearby. Both parents tend to the newborns, who are able to fly at about 8 weeks. The family bonds are strong, and the young remain with their parents on migration and throughout their first winter.

In the future it will be XML for all the places...
By Eduardo Cesar Lunardelli
from Undisclosed
For my experience as desenvolvedor, I believe that xml will be the basic foundation for web. Who still does not know this language must have in mind all the concepts. I advise this book for who intends to learn this! It looks for to see in this book the details of XSL, DTDs and the Schemas.. I liked it book!
OK but not conceptual enough
By mikey_n
I have been waiting for a book like this for a quite a while, and it is certainly a valuable reference. However, although the author is obviously very proficient in the technologies discussed, his approach seems to focus too much on implementation details and not enough on concepts and 'the big picture' for my taste - it is clearly the work of an engineer, not an educator or author.

I've noticed some hotspots are protected on the radio link via WEP/WPA and some leave the radio link open (ie: no WEP/WPA) but rather have everyone who attaches re-directed to a webpage where you have to log in to the network inorder to be able to use the hotspot.
I have 2 questions:
1) What is it called when you have to log in via a web page? is that called "Web-redirection based authentication" and SSL? (I'm trying to research it but don't know what the correct name is )And I suppose you need a special router for that? I suppose I can't do that with my low-end Linksys router?
2) Which method is more secure? Webpage login, or WPA login? What do most public hotspots (airports, hotels, etc) employ? I think the webpage re-direct?

Memories of Bosham
C1970 71 A Year In Bosham
What a year ! I was 17 and offered a job by Phil Peters at Bosham Sea School. I arrived in the February to help prepare the sailing dinghies and launch for the coming season. The launch was in the car park and the Wayfarer dinghies in a local farm. As the season progressed I made friends with some interesting ...Read full memory

Pulmonary vein stenosis is a rare and serious condition in which there is an obstruction (blockage) in the blood vessels that bring oxygen-rich blood from the lungs back to the heart. It can be isolated to a single pulmonary vein, but most often occurs in multiple veins simultaneously.
The stenosis occurs due to an abnormal thickening and, thus, narrowing of the walls of the veins. Pulmonary vein stenosis frequently progresses. As a result, partial loss or even total obstruction of flow to a vessel or vessels may occur.
Surgery to widen the narrowed veins and catheterization to stretch the vessel are usually short-term solutions since the obstruction typically recurs within a month to six weeks.
Our expertise
The Pulmonary Vein Stenosis team at Boston Children's - part of the #1 ranked Heart Center - coordinates all aspects of care for children with the condition. Because pulmonary vein stenosis is so rare, it's important that you see a team of specialists who exclusively focus on treating children with this complex condition. Please contact us today for a consultation or second opinion.
We offer treatment for newly diagnosed patients as well as innovative therapies for children with relapsed pulmonary vein stenosis.
Our specialists are known for treating children with the most complex cases as well as for our expertise in delivering specialized treatments. We often integrate care from other cardiac and pediatric specialties at Boston Children's Hospital into your child's treatment plan.
Your child's care team will be led by a pediatric cardiologist and pediatric cardiac nurse practitioner who specialize in treating children with pulmonary vein stenosis.
Our team is constantly looking at new and better ways to treat pulmonary vein stenosis, including the innovative use of chemotherapy drugs.
Our team works directly with our cardiac surgeons and cardiac catheterization specialists when surgery or balloon dilation (to open the narrowed blood vessel) and/or stenting (using wire tube to prop open the vein) is necessary.
At Boston Children's Hospital, we're fortunate to have a team of cardiac specialists who have been caring for children with pulmonary vein stenosis and have been studying the disease for decades.
Your child's care team will include:
At Boston Children's Hospital, we consider you and your child to be integral parts of the care team and not simply recipients of care. You and your team will work together to customize a plan of care for your child.
We are grateful to have been ranked #1 on U.S. News & World Report's list of the best children's hospitals in the nation for the third year in a row, an honor we could not have achieved without the patients and families who inspire us to do our very best for them. Thanks to you, Boston Children's is a place where we can write the greatest children's stories ever told."

Groton police warn of computer scam
Groton - The City of Groton Police Department is warning residents of a scam involving a phony computer technician.
The scam starts with an individual calling the victim by telephone and identifying themselves as a "Technician from Microsoft," who wants to "fix the errors" on the victim's computer. The next step in the scam is to obtain the victims debit card information to pay the $6 fee for the phony technician to fix the victim's computer errors.
In the case being investigated by city police, Sgt. Erick Jenkins said a victim reported an "icon" appearing on their computer screen after providing the scam artist with their debit card information. The victim learned later that their debit card was used to remove funds out of their account beyond the $6 requested by the phony technician.
The City of Groton would like to make the citizens aware of this scam and to not provide their personal banking information, credit card or personal information to any person soliciting such information by telephone, mail or email.

The photo on the Franklin website shows the pen with blue/green and purple in the peacock pattern. Mine definitely has no blue; instead there is a pink/magenta and purple in the pattern. No blue/green at all. At first I wasn't sure if I would send it back, but I've gotten to like it, and aside from the color the quality is great, so I decided to keep it.

Can anyone refer or suggest a decent duck hunting club in Illinois? I would prefer a club in the northern half of the state as I live in Chicago. That being said, I am open to all suggestions including clubs in southern half of the state too.
I do scout before and during the season, hunt public land, etc., but I like the idea of having a place with clubhouse and networking with other like-minded people. After all, it's always nice to crack open a beer and shoot the crap after morning hunt with new people.
Last year I joined Richmond Hunt Club and had a great time shooting upland birds, but I much prefer shooting ducks and geese. I highly recommend the club to anyone looking for a place to shoot pheasants, however, I would like to change things up.
Thanks in advance.

Discussion in 'Off The Beaten Track' started by missflick, Dec 12, 2010.
A geek's dream.
It's really just the course titles that are interesting (I wouldn't even call them bizarre) - and I think it's a great way to draw students in. There are several there I think would be interesting to taking, and I like the practical approach it sounds like most of them use.
Thanks for the link. Some of those truly are very strange but the cyberporn class not so much because I believe it is a growing problem. But a class on Harry Potter and another on Lady Gaga?!
There was a poultry science class at my school that was affectionatly known as the "chicken sex" class. I don't remember what the actual course was, but I went to a lecture by the professor and it was a sort-of psychology of human relationships as demonstrated by poultry. I do know that poultry science people loved the class.
We have a Harry Potter Lit course at EMU. It uses something practically everyone my age has read to delve into all the Greek myths and other literature that played a part in the development of Harry's world, as well as reading (or re-reading for many people) the books themselves of course. I think utilizing something that college-age kids can all relate to and love to teach them about the classics in a way they'll appreciate is brilliant, personally.
My uni had various courses with similar "catchy" titles. Most often, it's just the prof using a popular culture example to illustrate theory.
So it's not really a course about Lady Gaga... it's a sociology course that uses Lady Gaga as an example - one current students can relate to.
My philosophy teacher was in love with the Simpsons and often used them to illustrate things - so even though the course I took was just called "Intro to Philosophy" (yawn), we had a lot of pop culture infused into it.
Often when picking courses, you've only got a title and a few sentences upon which to base your decision. These sure do catch your attention and I'm sure the catchy titles have increased enrollment.
Some of those truly are unique though... Maple Syrup... yes, please!
The Harry Potter class is a science class where they look at contemporary scientific developments
They didn't put any Buffy Studies courses on the list! I mean, they even a have a journal for goodness sakes! The Journal of Buffy Studies www.slayageonline.com
and conferences!
There was a Eurovision course at my college.
I took Young Adult lit in college, and sadly it was not the section that read all the Harry Potter books. This was back in 99-00, before the first movie came out, so that class was pretty ahead of its time.
There was also a class called 7 Wonders that Shook the Universe. That and Astronomy were science electives designed specifically for those of us not majoring in science.
Yeah, OK. I admit I would take the Harry Potter course.
I'd take the YouTube class; in fact, since it's an open course, I'm going to check it out. YouTube can be an amazingly useful tool for students.
My school has a Simpsons course (in the mass communications department). A lot of students sign up thinking it's going to be TV watching for credit, but quickly drop out when they find they actually have to think and write critically about the issues the show presents (e.g. aging, families, workplace structures, religion).
Calling these courses "weird" is a little judgemental IMHO. Would the writer be happier if all these courses were purely theory, and didn't try to engage with things in the world that could illustrate the concepts and interest people?
The Harry Potter science course sounds really cool.
ITA and think most of the courses are interesting - you can find much of depth in contemporary cultures (i.e. daytime soaps, Star Trek, Harry Potter).
The Maple Syrup class I'm not so sure about, though I'm sure there is an art to maple syrup.

DCI receivers are predrilled. BUT I think he may change that, but Im not sure.
ALSO, the rivet deal. Here is what I found. The normal long rivets work just fine where they go. The trigger guard rivets, standard AK ones are too short. The rivet in the buldge, standard AK ones are too short. Here is the rivets that I used and was very pleased with how they turned out. You can get them from McMaster Carr.
Plain Steel Round Head Solid Rivet 5/32" Diameter, 3/8" Length, Approx 300 Pcs/Pk
In stock at $7.58 per Pack
If you plan on more than one build, these are worth it in the long run. They will also work as standard length AK short rivets as well, but just trim them down a lil.
I suggest finding some AK friends in the area, or move. I would move, you have to have a priority, Guns should be your first priority.
Some people are like Slinkies. Not really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.
how in the dickens do i get the butt stock of a m72 out of the rear trunion??
American By Birth, Southern By the Grace Of God
Im sure its like the M70s, take the butt pad off, take the long bolt out and it should come out. They are really tight in there. So do what you need to do to get it out.
Dremel is an useful but puny tool. I understand some of you guys do not want to invest big money in industrial power, but it is not a big money anymore.Originally Posted by OODA_Loop
Harbor Freight has angle grinders for $14 or so on sale. I like to grind rivet head down to swell with it and then pry receiver stub away.
Ground flat rivet head is a good base for driling. Get auto spring loaded punch, it is easier to have it right in the center than with hammer and punch.
Bench press is a must for driling out long rivets. Good dril bits are also must. Start from small diameter drill, lube and cool well.
I use 1/8 drils from HF, titanium nitrate coated, 10pcs for $2.50, for initial driling. You cant beat that price with the stick. Those cut through yugo rivets like with ease......
Comments: for receiver and rivets other than the four mag catch: Aircraft tool suppliers make a nifty rivet drill that is spring loaded and auto centers the head/drill. This tool is @ 50.00, but you'll have perfect patterns (from riceiver pieces) for new rivet hole, or maybe a future ashtray.
Drill press: econo buy is the home depot rigid or equivalent. Now go on e-bay and pick up a GOOD chuck, (ball bearing is nice). @30-40$.
X-Y table. MSC supply had this on sale, maybe others too, for $100.00 Again, check google and e-bay.
MSC supply also has SCREW MACHINE drills, and I am happily trying the tian coated cobalt (and they break!!) for drilling. Screw machine drills are much stiffer, and will wander much less
I've completed a Cold Steel receiver on Yugo satisfactorily, heat treating the receiver in sections on longitudinal axis Strip heat treating) to include the top rails and rivet holes. I also welded the top front trunnion, using 3/32 7018 on 75 amps AC
Parkerizing with Allegany kit, 45 minutes got a medium grey finish, while 10 minutes with top cover got quite dark. Welds and heat-treat shows thru. I'll re-do with a cure paint.
Tanks: For dis-assembled AK, the Vollrath SS 1/2 size steam table pans 6" deep are just the right size. 18-8 SS, fit my 2 burner propane camp stove, and are the right price. I got 3 for $15 each + ship on E-bay.
Wood: Scrape with broken glass, then MANY coats of 1/3 White vinegar, 1/3 mineral spirits, and 1/3 linseed oil. Shake well each time you take some out.
A final coat of furniture wax isn't needed, but is pretty good after the 3/0 steel wool final.
It can be done with a Dremel & hand drill.
Use a wide grinding bit and make the rivet heads flat. Then center punch and use good quality & sharp drill bits. Take your time with the long rivets, it's very easy to break a bit while doing these.
But the others are right about the HF table top drill press. If you got some closet space you can keep in there until you need to use it, any sturdy table will do as a work bench.
soft rivets which ak's have, are best removed with a sharp cold chisel two full blows with a 1 pound ball peen hammer- wear safety glasses -next remove the cleaning rod and with your dremel cut to the front starting in the mag well opening stop just short of cutting into the lower forestock band. Take your hammer and tap on the old rail and off it comes, leaving you a nice template

The last morning of Reinvention 2012 began with a panel on "Deconstructing the Mass Appeal and Continued Relevance of Traditional Architecture." Gary L. Brewer, AIA, a partner at Robert A.M Stern Architects, opened with a presentation of the firm's residential work, including custom homes, townhouses, and apartment buildings. "Our idea is to carry forward an expression of a place," he said. He questioned the academic world's emphasis on modern architecture and its influence (or lack thereof) on the built landscape: "Because of [architects'] complete lack of interest in traditional design, we're kind of responsible for McMansions."
Margaret McCurry, FAIA, of Tigerman McCurry Architects, told the audience, "I look to the past and think about what the spirit of that means." The older buildings she mentioned as influences included Midwestern farm structures, Italian basilicas, and Edward Schroeder Prior's 1896 The Barn in Devon, England. Each of these contains many layers of meaning, she pointed out—"what I try to search for in all the work that I do." McCurry alluded to the connection between traditional and Modern architecture, noting that she "trained as a Modernist at SOM" and is working on a Modern house now.
Stuart Cohen, FAIA, and Julie Hacker, FAIA, of Cohen & Hacker Architects, also discussed the relationship between Modern and traditional design. "While we do traditional architecture, we think of ourselves as Modern architects," Cohen said. Hacker explained that she and Cohen try to unite traditional and Modern ideas about space, and presented several houses that demonstrate this approach. "Our clients want open space and at the same time spaces that are defined," she said.
Cohen also mentioned trim as another element that relates to both historic and contemporary architecture, citing Frank Lloyd Wright. Ultimately, "we believe the language of traditional architecture always allows for reinvention," he concluded.
Donald Powers, AIA, LEED AP, CNU, told the audience that he believed many architects thought traditional design was beneath them. "That's not healthy," he said. He described his firm as "carpetbaggers" who draw from the best of both Modern and traditional architectural principles. His single-family residential communities typically feature traditional exteriors and more Modern-influenced floor plans. "The compartmentalized plan is no longer relevant to our lives," he said. "We're making the point that ideas of complex and dynamic space can be brought to bear in traditional architecture."
The question-and-answer period at the end of the panel brought up some interesting points, one of which was Margaret McCurry's response to a question about "transitional" style. "I think [good design] is all about excellence," she explained. "That's why I hate the word 'style.' Excellence really has to do with scale and proportion and how the spaces relate to each other. For me, that's the essence of what makes space. That quality of excellence and beauty is what we should be striving for."

Hi there.
I would like some advice on what to do about the following situation:
This year has been my first year as a TEFL teacher in Cadiz Spain. It has been both an enjoyable but also stressful 10 months!
Enjoyable because all of my students have been a joy to teach (and all 16 who sat their Trinity exams passed with flying colours!)
Stressful because of one reason. My Centre manager!
She is a fiery Irish woman who has only been a teacher for 4 years, but has somehow been elevated to the role of centre Manager (not DOS as i teach in a satellite academy of the main centre)
She has made my life absolute hell from the first day.
She rules the school with a rod of iron, everybody including the students are afraid of her. She shouts and screams not only at other teachers but at students too!
Her idea of observations are to enter my classes without warning - sit at the front of the class with arms folded, tutting and shaking her head at any mistakes i make. Her idea of feedback is to tell me that I am a terrible teacher and "that was the worst lesson i have ever seen"
She reprimands me in front of students, in class with comments like "this boy is going to fail his exams and its going to be your fault" and "see me in my office during your break!"
It got to the point after Christmas where i would feel physically sick if she came into my class, and my whole lesson would go pear shaped!
I have had one official observation which was in December (which surprise surprise she slated me and gave me a fail!)
After one "heated discussion" with her about her style of management in March after she had yet again stormed into one of my classes without warning i threatened to report her to the DOS and she promptly gave me an official warning for "refusing to take feedback"
I have spoken to a previous employee of the school who went through exactly the same process with her 12 months ago, he was also the only male teacher at the school (as am I) so maybe it is sex discrimination?
I refrained from reporting her and she apologised to me and said she had not realised the effect her "observations" were having on me. I accepted the apology but stated that I would not accept her coming into my classes without warning, and wanted a full observation, with feedback to be organised. This was planned (and i spent 3 hours planning and checking my lesson) only for her not to turn up!!!
Despite all this i was considering returning to the school next year (mad i know but i love Cadiz and their are not many decent schools with positions) and she had actually asked me 6 weeks ago if i would be coming back.
I was given my end of term assessment yesterday and was told i would not be invited back next year and was then given a written reference with a D for lesson execution and C- for organization and paperwork!!
This despite having only one official observation 2 months after starting as a teacher for the first time, and after having some glowing peer observations from some experienced teachers!.
To say I am angry is an understatement! Any advice or comments would be welcome, as i feel that the reference she has given me will damage my chances of obtaining work elsewhere!
