Hello, I am looking for a very easy way for a user to view a word or pdf document from a webpage. On the webpage, I have user information, specifically, a filepath to a document stored on a file server that when a usert clicks a button or hyperlink, it will open that document, read only, in a separate window. I've tried a couple of things but can't get around the "Download, save, abort" window that pops up on server.redirect and using a hyperlink button.
Can anyone avise me on a very easy way to achieve this?

You can have the page just write it out. Let's say they send the request to your page like this:
Now, in downloadfile.aspx, you need to set up things like this example (though you SHOULD check to ensure they are downloading from the directory you expect!):
I forgot I was on the C# forum.
void Page_Load ( object sender, EventArgs e ) string strRequest = Request.QueryString["file"]; //-- if something was passed to the file querystring if ( strRequest != "" ) { //get absolute path of the file // the file is passed like a web address /images/myimage.jpg string path = Server.MapPath(strRequest); //get file object as FileInfo System.IO.FileInfo file = new System.IO.FileInfo(path); //-- if the file exists on the server if ( file.Exists ) //set appropriate headers { Response.Clear(); Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + file.Name); Response.AddHeader("Content-Length", file.Length.ToString()); Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream"; // write file to browser Response.WriteFile(file.FullName); Response.End(); } else { // if file does not exist Response.Write("This file does not exist."); } } else { //nothing in the URL as HTTP GET Response.Write("Please provide a file to download."); } }
There is the example in C#.

Thanks for the reply!!!!
I worked with this briefly, but I noticed 2 problems with this approach,
1) - the downloadfile.aspx page opens, which I do not want an additional window for the user to close AND
2) - the File Download dialog box opens offering the user to save, open or cancel the word document. Which I do not want, I need it to just open up the document in another page.
It would be ideal for the user to click a button on a webpage and that would simply open word or adobe using an existing document, in a seperate window.
Hope this makes sense.
Thanks again!

Remove the "attachment; " portion of the "Content-Disposition" header and it should work. You should also send the proper mime type (text/html for HTML documents, for instance), but it is not always necessary and application/octet-stream basically lets the browser figure it out. Testing on my own machine with various file types, it opened up the new window and either loaded the file in the window (text, HTML), or required me to open it with the Download dialog, which closed the window when I downloaded the item. One case did not close the window, which was a PDF file using "application/octet-stream" but by providing "application/pdf" it was correctly opened in the window. I am running IE 7. Providing the mime type for the Office types (Excel's is "application/vnd.ms-excel" I believe) did not seem to help, but I am running the beta for Office 2007, so that might be a security feature to not display them within the browser and it still closed the window.
For the full list of "official" types: http://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/

Thanks for taking the time to create this detailed resolution. Everything functions as you had mentioned. FYI, if the document to view is a .pdf, I use the application/pdf oterwise I use application/Actet-stream.
I am now wondering if there is a way for these documents to be brought up in read-only, where the user cannot change and then resave the document.
Is there something I can set in the code behind of the DownLoadFile.aspx page or something I can add to the Response.AddHeader?
Thanks much for the assistance.
Jan 31, 2007 03:51 AM|LINK
Yes, you can change the ReadOnly attribute of the file, but are you sure that this is necessary?
The users are downloading the file from the server, and they will not be able to change the file on the server unless they have access to replace that file themselves (such as through FTP).
It's not as though the users open the file, then click save and it overwrites the file on your server.
Anyway, if you just wanted to make the files ReadOnly, then you can set them to be ReadOnly before sending the files by adding "file.IsReadOnly = true;" before sending the file ("Response.WriteFile(file.FullName);"). Make sure that you set it back to false, or it will stay Read Only (of course, you or the user can just go into the folder [that the file resides, or they download your file to] and right click -> Properties -> Uncheck Read-only to change it manually in Windows Explorer).

Thanks Picky. FYI, I am an old cobol programmer still adjusting to the C# switch. Your detailed answers are very helpful. The more code examples I see the better.
The reason I want to set the readonly attribute is simple, it is easier for me to explain to the user that, Yes, the file is readonly, aposed to explaining why the readonly is not necessary because blah, blah, blah.......
Thanks for the help. Job well done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jan 31, 2007 08:26 PM|LINK
You're welcome, and I am glad I could help.
Hopefully your transition to C# can be pretty painless.

Hi Picky
I'm working on a similar thing to what you're discussing here, I don't want to show a download dialog, I just want the file displayed in the browser. I've got it all working at the moment, but I must say I don't really understand this contentType or even the attachHeader and content-disposition stuff. For example, I've used the octet-stream as the catch all because using octet-stream for pdf documents caused the adobe application to launch. Still no download dialog but it opens a new window (Adobe reader) which I don't want. But using Application/pdf, works perfectly.
Is this because I don't specify an attach header as inline? As you can see from below, I try to identify the file type, but I don't think it's robust enough because clients may use many more file types.
Any thoughts/comments on this would be much appreciated.
public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext context) { //context.Response.Write("Hello World"); String sFileName = ""; String sFullPath = String.Empty; sFullPath = context.Request.QueryString["FullPath"]; if (sFullPath != null && sFullPath.Length > 4) { if (sFullPath.Contains(@"\")) { if (File.Exists(sFullPath)) { FileInfo _file4View = new FileInfo(sFullPath); context.Response.Buffer = false; context.Response.Clear(); String sContentType = ""; switch (Path.GetExtension(sFullPath).ToLower()) { case ".dwf": sContentType = "Application/x-dwf"; break; case ".pdf": sContentType = "Application/pdf"; break; case ".doc": sContentType = "Application/vnd.ms-word"; break; case ".ppt": case ".pps": sContentType = "Application/vnd.ms-powerpoint"; break; case ".xls": sContentType = "Application/vnd.ms-excel"; break; default: sContentType = "Application/octet-stream"; break; } context.Response.ContentType = sContentType; MemoryStream _Stream = new MemoryStream(); //StreamWriter _writer = new StreamWriter(_Stream); FileStream _fileStream = new FileStream(sFullPath, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read); long fileLength = _fileStream.Length; Byte[] _byte = new Byte[(int)fileLength]; _fileStream.Read(_byte, 0, (int)fileLength); _fileStream.Close(); context.Response.BinaryWrite(_byte); } } } }
Feb 09, 2007 05:33 AM|LINK
You do not do very much path checking to see if the requested file's location is maybe a little too close on your root drive (luckily you will probably be protected by user rights, but that's not really guaranteed).
You declare and instantiate your FileInfo variable for the Extension property, but you never use it (you instead use a static method from System.IO.Path; both operate the same), which is fine, but you should get rid of it or use it.
You go to a lot of effort to write out your file, when you could just use "context.Response.WriteFile(sFullPath);" or "context.Response.WriteFile(_file4View.FullName);" instead of using all of the streams, and the byte array.
Ignoring the last point, I see that you store the file's length as a long value (appropriately since the property returns a long), but then you cast it twice into an integer. It's not a big deal by any means, but you might as well store it as an integer in the first place to avoid two wasted casts right after it. Again, this is just me being, well, picky.
As for the actual issue at hand, you don't need to add the "attachment;" part to the Content Disposition (similarly, you do not and should not add "inline;" to it, but you could for certain files). You actually do not even need to add the Content Disposition, but I think it is helpful, especially for files that may not be opened inside of the browser (such as MS Word files in my case with Word 2007 Beta), in which case it will suggest a filename for them. Using the headers kind of suggests dumping the use of Path.GetExtension(...) in favor of using _file4View.Extension because it will make it easier to get the file name (without the path) and the file's length easily. Replace Path.Get..(...).ToLower() with _file4View.Extension.ToLower(), and you should probably rename your FileInfo variable to something a little more friendly (_file4View doesn't make much sense to me, to be honest).
// get a better FileInfo var name too // and spit out a [hopefully] friendly file name context.Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "filename=" + _file4View.Name); // give it the file length too context.Response.AddHeader("Content-Length", _file4View.Length.ToString());
To better explain the HTTP Headers, I think it would be best to read up on them since I don't think I will do you any justice, and this is one of the best explanations of Content-Length that I have found. It is very short, and very to-the-point. Long story short, is that if you know the length, then you should tell the client. The same site also provides a nice explanation for Content-Disposition, which is to basically use it to suggest a default filename when necessary.
I agree that both should be used.

Well, it's the end of summer, everyone is busy getting the kids back in school, sports practice, cramming in your summer ideas that aren't yet completed and, oh my gosh, its October and I am deep into budgets and trying to define next year. Just like the solstice, no matter what we do, time marches on and we keep trying to run and catch up. STOP… This is a great opportunity for us as full service hotels to connect to our local communities, build new relationships and revenue. This opportunity is called the holidays, and they are the time of the year where both business and government yield to family values, activities and religious traditions.
So what are our customers feeling and thinking when it comes time for the holidays? I think they are rediscovering family values and time together. Time is the new luxury, so how we spend it is very valuable. These times call for renewing, building and connecting with the one thing we can trust, rely and depend on, and that one thing is family. There is the nuclear family, the new family and the work family. Each of these is challenged on an economic and psychological level. Since our nation is so spread out, we either can go home or spend time with our 'new' family…those we live, work and play with.
Companies that would typically spend money on holiday celebrations are far less likely to do so right now for two reasons: perception and economic issues. For those that do plan to provide a holiday celebration for their employees, it will have a different tone. As hospitality professionals, we must be cognizant of the way celebrations are perceived and must re-engineer our catering offerings, and in the case of restaurants, our private dining options to accommodate this current reality.
It's a great time to add value through packaging and providing options for social and work groups to gather. One package could be designed with the intention that the company would foot the bill. Another package could be designed so the attendees cover the cost. Whatever those options may be, you must provide them. Take a good look at your offerings (food and beverage style, complexity, price, policies, etc.) and consider a new approach to capturing this market. Don't assume the customer will 'figure it out' because you think you can match their budgets or expectations. You must communicate it clearly and frequently. The simpler it is for the customer to understand, the easier it will be to book the business. Most customers don't plan these events very often, so they will not necessarily understand your guarantee policy, minimums, taxes, gratuities, bar minimums and on and on... Look at what you do through their eyes if you want to capture that piece of business. Could we have a mid-afternoon to early evening package of food and drink that makes it affordable and easy to plan, buy and communicate? You know your customers are looking for happy hour in local establishments, what about in your banquet room?
During the holidays, people want to gather and celebrate. How about a package deal in your restaurant for groups of 6 or more? How about offering house wine with the entrée, a larger family-style dessert placed on the table to share? How easy is it for separate checks? How about cash wine sales at the table in private events? One of MHC's restaurants consistently does over 500 covers on Christmas Eve, including many of these modern families, before they go to the relatives the next day. Most of America is not the traditional family and yet they see their local close relationships as their family.
How about starting a holiday tradition that is multi-generational, like a holiday tea program? Trust me, it will build over time and become one of those holiday staples for your customer year after year. Have you ever hear of the Red Hat Ladies? There are numerous groups of people that gather throughout the year, from book clubs to craft and jewelry clubs, interested in trying something new. Bring them a new tradition to weave into their lives.
Lastly, regarding the holidays, think about the ambiance you provide. Have you made your spaces special? Festive? Better than your competition? Your customers either don't know how to, can't or don't want to entertain at home or the office. Your space needs to become that place for them, whether that's a banquet room or a portion of your restaurant. If you're not sold out in your restaurant Monday through Thursday, what opportunities are there? Do you want price or volume? I recommend you go for volume and reintroduce the local market to your hotel and restaurant in a new light, a fun place, a place where they emotionally attach themselves.These tough times requires new ways to merchandise, market, price your capacity and start to use your capacity.
All of these ideas add up to one thing: if you want to move the needle, you must continue to excel at your core business, but you must also start doing somethings differently. I find in most organizations, there are a lot of people working on the operations side and very few revenue folks, and we default to spending our time on defense and operations. Lift your head up, look whats coming and grab more than your share. Discounting gets us nowhere. If it's worth doing, it's worth charging for. Creating new experiences and value is not discounting.

Optus Sponsor i9 for 2013
We've kept it a little quiet but it's about time we let the cat out of the bag and told our nearest and dearest some pretty epic news. We're to be sponsored by Optus for the year 2013. What does this mean for our community? Sponsorship will be used for general upkeep and current renovations, the purchasing of desks - which now sit comfortably in South Space – continuation of the high speed rate at which our internet functions, and an Inspire9 mural to be designed and completed by Makatron of the Everfresh street artist crew. The large whale on Stewart Street at Hoddle, that's Makatron.
A self-funded project which started in 2006 this is the first time Inspire9 will receive funding of any sort. Optus' sponsorship will strengthen our community by providing other entrepreneurs access to the space. With open arms we want to provide the best possible environment for Melbourne's budding entrepreneurs, to meet other like-minded people and ultimately be a home for startups, freelancers, innovative thinkers, creatives and community interest groups.
Sponsorship from Optus is not as uncharacteristic as one may think. In fact, Optus is the major sponsor of the Melbourne and Sydney Startup weekend events and has it's own mid-stage venture fund, the Innov8 Seed Program, which invests in up to eight startups a year. Sponsorship of Inspire9 is a further move in Optus' continued support of the Australian startup community.
Sponsorship means Inspire9 can continue to cultivate, improve and sustain its current position as one of Melbourne's coolest coworking spaces.

Comment posted McCuish announces 'coalition for progress' by Dave McEwan Hill.
Times they are a changing.
The SNP embargo on working in formal coalition with Tories was at Parliamentary level because of their unionist commitment. It is not relevant at council level. A Tory publicly in favour of independence has just been elected in Midlothian (Peter De Vink – see below)
The "Unionist" in the Tory description in Scotland is not fundamental. It was a reaction to the "Irish Problem" in the early years of last century but I suspect London influence is the reason for it being stuck on Scotland's Tories as if it was a party constitutional clause. Two of the prominent founder members of the SNP – the Duke of Montrose and Sir Compton Mackenzie – were Tories
But the piece below represents a not inconsiderable procession of thought among Tories. Tories are not political in the sense others may be . They are pragmatists. When power shifts they shift with it. Interesting times.
Despite last Thursday's odd results (achieved by the media and not by a hopeless Labour Party)I believe Labour in Scotland is in as much, if not more, trouble in Scotland than the Tories
Dave McEwan Hill also commented
- I would think it sensible to allow the CEO to explain the conditions she was operating under before we all jump to conclusions. This is not an attempt to excuse completely unacceptable behaviour on a number of issues but a suggestion that the CEO may be able to explain what pressures were brought to bear on her as she did her work. Could be illuminating and very useful – particularly if appropriate measures are to be taken to insure that Dick Walsh does not rise from politically dead as he was allowed to do over ten years ago after Jean McFadden of Strathclyde University and the Ombudsman both suggested he was not a fit person to hold public office

Of course it's true. The SNP Constituency Association passed a motion without a single dissent in favour of saving Struan Lodge.
You are probably confusing SNP local policy with a policy adopted by the SNP led Argyll and Bute administration coalition which is losing its members steadily and got spectacularly thumped last week.

Quite frankly the above is illogical, inconsistent, incorrect in almost every detail and a total fabrication from beginning to end. In short it is a collection of lies.
I think it merits wider coverage in the more reliable press

Truly Julie with the Ann Arbor gang!Look at this dreamy sunset with the Golden Gate Bridge as our majestic backdrop! How fitting…given these are my childhood/high school Ann Arbor friends that I hope to have in my life well into my golden years:) In addition to my longtime Michigan friends who now live in SF…this earthy city also sparks so many childhood memories for me because I visited my late grandmother here every year as a kid. And boy…was she ahead of her time. Long story short…she raised 3 kids as a single mom during the Korean War aftermath…worked several odd jobs including being a maid to raise enough money to move to SF (and to put my uncle through med school)…opened her own jewelry boutique…powder blue convertible Benz…4 bedroom home in Twin
Peaks…BAM! The way she lead her life imbued in me: you can either wait for things to happen…or make things happen. Ding ding ding! You got it…she always opted for the latter. I really do think I get so much of my go-getter, independent spirit from her. And perhaps that's why she chose SF as her final destination. This city, too, marches to it's own beat. It doesn't effing matter if you wear a Patagonia fleece to a nice dinner. Never mind the hills with the 90 degree incline..people will still bike around town with a smile. So hippie…yet so hardcore. Love it. I took more hikes during my 3 day stay in the Bay Area than I have…well…in 3 years! I highly recommend the trails throughout Tamalpais Park. We trekked the Matt Davis and Dipsea trails and I highly recommend. You get waterfalls…massive redwood trees…ocean view…a litte bit of everything. The park site says these trails are meant to "intensify your pleasure". I don't know about all that…but it was a beautiful 8 mile hike:) We also strolled through Sutro Baths which has sweeping views of Golden Gate Bridge and mesmerizing acres of Bay Area's iconic Monterey pinetrees. As my Americana tour continues (check out N'awlins, Philly, Boston, Brooklyn & Cambridge …I'm glad I got to revisit SF. As the saying goes: it's an oldie…but a goodie. Just like my friends I've known since I was kiddie:) (Don't worry…not quitting my day job to become a rapper) Check out the picture gallery below which includes the best ice cream place ever!

I have done some searching on answers.onstartups about hyphen domain names and non .com domain names and am still not sure what the best thing to do is. The name that I want to register is taken only under the .com and the hyphen name is available. Based on the whois register of the domain name I'm looking for it is registered by a company that does domain registration and doesn't expire for another 2 years. I am just wondering what everyone thinks the best way to go is. I'm not really keen on trying to purchase this domain name but am not sure what the best solution is. I was thinking of either registering a .net, .co, etc or the hyphen name. What do you think the best solution is?
Registering the .com is the best choice. If the non-hyphenated .com isn't available, I suggest you either try to come up with a different name, or add app to the end of the domain name you want. For example, mydomainapp.com. If it were me, I would try to come up with another domain that is available under the .com, instead of adding app to one that is already taken. Edit: As AviD mentioned in his comment below, there are words you can use other than app that will allow you to use the domain name you like. Some other choices to consider are: systems, technology, enterprise, security, solutions, and application. I think these words are more professional sounding than app. Just make sure you are not infringing on someone's trademark. If it is possible for a consumer to confuse your name with someone else's name you could find yourself in legal problems. To give you an example, the name of my web security business is Light Point Security. We liked the name Light Point, but lightpoint.com was already taken. Since it is a web security business, we added the word Security to the business name, and grabbed the available domain name lightpointsecurity.com. Because the company that owns lightpoint.com is in the business of designing and installing outdoor landmark signs, consumers shouldn't confuse lightpoint.com with lightpointsecurity.com. Recently, someone registered the domain name lightpointsecuritysystems.com, which I'm not too happy about. That company is in the physical security space. Hope that helps! |
Find another .com domain without a hyphen. Otherwise, you'll always have to "explain" your domain to people when you tell them. You always have to say "Remember, it's .BIZ not .COM" or "... and that's with a hyphen between WORD1 and WORD2" Even after explaining it, you risk customers not finding your domain. A couple resources to help you find an available name: InstantDomainSearch.com NameStation.com |

Shoreline, WA, United States | Member Since 2009
I enjoyed this book. I learned quite a bit. Sometimes the personal narrative was a bit much but I would recommend this book.
"My son liked it"
We were spending hours commuting in the car so I thought we would listen to this whole series since my son loves animals. He liked it, and it wasn't bad. There were just a lot of strange words in it that I thought were a bit much for a children's book. And the narrator's voice was a bit droning (is that proper English?). So, I made an executive decision and decided not to get the second book in the series.
"Thank goodness!"
I stumbled on this in the midst of some really trying circumstances in my life where everyone kept telling me I just had to "stay positive" and employ what I have now adopted as referring to as "magical thinking" (aka "The Secret") to make things work out. Although I am a firm believer that kvetching about something often doesn't help to achieve anything positive, I also think everyone trying convince themselves and others that crappy situations have someone been caused by their "bad" thinking is oppressive and wrong. Thank you, Ms. Ehrenreich, for informing us about the history of this movement in America and being brave enough to keep a critical mind when doing so gets you lambasted for being an "eeyore".
"This was an excellent book."
I had just gotten done with "The Count of Monte Cristo" and had just learned about Dumas' interesting ancestry when this came out so it was perfect timing. I liked learning about the history of the time period in France and the Caribbean as well as the biographical details. Dumas' time spent in Egypt with the French forces was especially interesting to me. Very interesting and narrated expertly.
"Beauty and a knack for story telling?"
Coming of age in the 80's I did not have hang that iconic poster of Rob Lowe in the white t-shirt exposing his stomach up on my bedroom wall but I never forgot it, either. I appreciated how down-to-earth his telling of his story is. You really do get a feeling for the whole person behind that gorgeous face. Good job, Rob!
"Not bad for modern fiction"
This was wonderfully narrated. The story is pretty densely packed for the short space of time it was suppose to have taken place in but for the long length it rarely ever seemed to drag on or go on a tangent that was unrelated to the story. I very much liked the character of Matthew Corbett. I appreciated that for how much dialog the characters participated in the reading continued to flow smoothly. I will listen to the next book in the series. Not a modern classic but not too shabby either.
"Excellent! Excellent! Excellent!"
I cannot recommend this book more highly. Wonderful story, wonderful characters, wonderful narrator. Brought tears to my eyes quite a few times and caused me to laugh out loud as well.
"Narrator is great! Story is creepy."
I am not a prude, but this story with overtones of incest and S & M was just too much for me. I couldn't get past the first part of the book because I was worried about what would be coming next.
"This book was awesome!"
Great narrator!
This book was excellent on many levels. Great historical facts, great questions, interesting interviews, introduction to the science of memory and a very interesting personal story woven through the whole book. I would love to sit down and chew the fat with this author.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I was so sad when it was done. His accounts of his interactions with modern matadors as well as his research into the history of bullfighting were fascinating. If you interested at all in the bullfight this is a must!
"Not what I expected"
If you think this is a book about the circus you would only be partially right. The first half is an exciting narrative of a young man's adventure. The second (in my opinion) is a typical "damsal-in-distress" love story which I didn't care for. The narration was fantastic! I loved that there were two people telling their story - one old and one young. The older narrator was absolutely fabulous! It was a good listen.

Testimonies: Broken-Heart |
"I awoke this morning with such a wonderful sense of freedom and wholeness after the ministry last night. I feel some of the major splintered wounds in my soul have been identified, forgiven, cleansed and integrated. I am so thankful to God for my Healing Rooms family, the team who ministered to me and the team of intercessors. I am thankful for their commitment to seeing people released into their covenant and for the clear confirmation of mine last night!! The words of an old song "I can feel the Love of God in this place, I receive your goodness, I receive your grace, I delight myself at your table, O God, you do all things well, just look at our lives!" were ringing in my spirit as I awoke. I hadn't heard those words for years! Thank you Lord. Bronwyn" - Bronwyn P. on March 25th, 2013 | |
"I recently went to the Healing Rooms for Terraforming. That was the instruction from the Lord, along with a mental picture of my sister's grave. The issues dealt with were rebellion, doubt and unbelief, and resentment. The two factors that left the most impression, from the session, were the need to forgive myself and reintegration of splinters of myself. Since that time I am different. I the most complete and whole I have ever been. I have had another session of Terraforming since, which dealt with the remnant of rejection, an issue dealt with a long time ago. Now that I am more whole I realize that I need to learn how to live this way, so I have asked the lord for wisdom. There are many ways to pray but my recent experience of Terraforming prayer has for me been a very positive one. Colin" - Colin S. on March 5th, 2013 | |
"Even while I was waiting, before going in for prayer, God gave me a picture of myself as a young girl sitting at His feet. His loving hand came over my head and He said It's going to be alright. How reassuring was that! God had given the prayer team words that were exactly me so we knew where to start. Up came the dark past from my childhood when I was 8 or 9 years old. I had been abused and taken advantage of by my brother and older men. I was able to forgive them all by the Blood of the Lamb. My childhood and teenage years have been restored back to me. Oh! How thankful I am for my wonderful Saviour, Jesus. Janelle" - Janelle C. on January 22nd, 2013 | |
"I was about to give up on my marriage. Came to healing rooms and received Holy Spirit inspired prayer and scripture. Was then led to attend Discovery program and through prayer my husband attended also, all the walls, hurts, and anger were removed. We could see each other's hearts and the love and attraction was back. We both know only with God can we stay in this place, and that it's a daily walk. I am here again tonight to remove any strongholds that would hinder this process. I was giving wonderful prayer and visions from the team. Thank you for your giving and love." - Carrmon on February 11th, 2012 | |
"I have been coming here asking God to reach my husband and tonight after a year he asked me if he can come to the healing rooms! We have had several problems and on Sunday (yesterday) I told God that if he is who I am supposed to be with give me a sign not to give up and my husband got up and said let's go to the healing rooms and he is here! Praise be to God!" - Lisa on February 20th, 2012 | |
"Growing up; I seen domestic violence between my parents. As I got older I kept things to myself, I learned not to trust anyone; but always spoke to God about my problems. My parents recently got divorce and I felt like it was my fault. As, the prayer team prayed the Spirit of the Lord moved over me and released me from all guilt. For the first time it was confirmed that it wasn't my fault what happen to my parents relationship. Another, issue was in my familyline, witchcraft; I sensed the curse was officially broken today. I felt clean something on the inside changed my joy returned. A song rose up in my HEART." - Marie R. on June 21st, 2012 | |
"I started coming to the Healing Rooms back in Sept 2011. I came in with a heavy and hurting heart that I have carried around since I was a child. I've had this baggage with me since I was very little and had been deeply oppressed with such a heaviness. Finally in April of 2012, I came in and had a major breakthrough. I came in for prayer and one of the women asked me to repeat a prayer of forgiveness for my entire family and myself! That single prayer opened up such a freedom in my heart that I have only dreamt about! The stronghold have been broken, and I can now grow healthy in my relationship with Jesus. WOW!!! Such Freedom!! I am ever so grateful for the Healing Rooms and all the work they do for God. God is so loving and faithful. And yes, He hears our most heartfelt cries!" - Amber C. on May 1st, 2012 | |
"I thank God you are there for us! I have been going through one of the longest and most difficult trials ever. I was feeling so defeated and beat down and oppressed. Even though I believed God was there, somehow my prayers weren't availing much. Then I came to the Healing Room with a huge list of needs. My first was the need for a job for my husband. It had been 1 and half years since he lost his job, and we had no unemployment. I prayed and prayed but it felt like we had huge oppression over our lives that I could not break through. My answer came 1 month later when my husband started a new job! Thank you, Lord!! I also had issues with my family, and I believe the Lord is working that out because now I have a comfort I could not attain before. Through receiving prayer, the sense of forgiveness, love and peace has increased in my life letting me know I am not abandoned. He is doing an ongoing work, and I am trusting in it! I have a new sense of God's presence in, and with, me now. Thank you for being there and committing yourselves to praying for the body of Christ. _____________ My daughter was arrested for stolen property put in her car that she was unaware of. She had willingly met police and when she went to get her purse, the stolen property fell from her trunk. Many months later she went before the judge and had tremendous favor shown from the prosecutor and the judge. Everyone was amazed! Our lawyer was stunned by the mercy that had been shown by all. His comment was, "God is Great". My daughter agreed that it couldn't have gone any better. In coming to the prayer room I have received more than answered prayer. I have received comfort, peace, a renewed relationship with my Heavenly Father." - Patti S. on March 22nd, 2011 | |
"GOD HEALED MY HEART. I came into the Oxnard Healing Rooms stressed, broken hearted and really down. I felt the Lords' presence. He relieved me of stress and the weight that was on my shoulders. I am leaving with great peace and calmness that my prayers will be answered and all that needs to be forgiven will." - Fernado R. on December 15th, 2011 | |
"In July I came to the Healing Rooms for emotional healing from a bad marriage & divorce, and for physical healing of my elbow. I could hardly pick up a towel. While receiving prayer, the Lord spoke through the Team that I needed to let go of my bad marriage that I tried to physically hang on to. They prayed for healing of my elbow. With the understanding that my elbow was healed, fi I ever had pain I knew I needed ot 'let go' of hanging on emotionally. As soon as I did, the pain went away. I've not had any pain return for about 7 months! The Lord can heal anything! Thank you, Jesus! Thank you, God! Thank you, Healing Room volunteers." - N. O. on December 24th, 2009 | |

Featuring FCA favorite Chelsea Mixon as Katsa, and sensational newcomer Zachary Exton as Prince Po, the most fascinating and praised fantasy debut of 2008 now springs to life in a sensational full-cast recording.
©2008 Kristin Cashore; (P)2009 Full Cast Audio
"Outstanding first novel!"
I loved this book both in print and in audio. It is exciting, fast paced and has an awesome storyline filled with both adventure and some romance.
This is the first time I have listened to a full cast audio production and wasn't sure I would like it but it was excellent. I was surprised though that the narrator was a male voice given it is about a female protagonist.
Katsa is a strong heroine who because of her grace can hold her own in any situation. No she does not want to get married for the reasoning that in her society the men expect their wives to be the traditional housewife taking care of the kids, entertaining guests and serving their husbands. This is not what she wants for her life and there is nothing wrong with that - not everyone needs to marry and bear children to be fulfilled in their life (btw I am married with 3 kids).
Yes there is one pre-marital sex scene in this book where she loses her virginity - it is NOT graphic and is 3 paragraphs long. The second sex scene in the epilogue that has been referred to is non-existent as the sex is inferred and not described in detail. I would have no problem letting my teenage daughter read this novel.
Kristin Cashore has released a second book called Fire which is just as excellent - it is a companion book to Graceling - ie about the same "world" but there is only one character that is in both books and that is Leck so both books are standalone. I am very much looking forward to her third book Bitterblue hopefully coming out in the next year or two.
I got this book because of the VERY mixed reviews.
First I believe that no book should be banned for any reason.
That said some books are not appropriate for all readers.
To the people that got hung up about the "sex" scene.
The characters in this book are ADULTS. And Katsa is an assassin!!!! She has the emotion of what she is. Death on two legs.
Poe is the First person to show her any feelings at all.
To those again that went on and on about the sex scene YOU ruined a very good book for me, I kept saying "so when is this going to happen?" And it must be graphic and I really was afraid it would be, the way some had it sound, it would be pornographic. It was not. When it did happen it was in very good taste and wright for the time.
The book is PREFORMED like a play with many actors. Some may not like this, I do. It was well written and well preformed, and the story is very good.
It should not be shocking to have a strong female lead as most of the rubbish on TV is so poorly done.
I recommend Garth Nix"'s Sabriel for more of the same.
I really enjoyed this book, but the audio did take me a bit to get used to. I am not used to listening to the full cast audio books, usually just one reader. But everyone was pretty good. But I could have done without the music that was periodically inserted. I think that it was supposed to be creating suspense, but most of the time it just made me laugh.
"Great every time"
First a disclaimer - This review is actually written by James' wife.
Now, down to business! I love this book! I liked Katsa, Po, Raffin and the rest, liked the readers for all of the parts, too, which I haven't often found to be the case. I'm really looking forward to "Fire" which may tell about where King Lec came from, and "Bitterblue" and I really hope they will also use the full cast audio crew who did such an excellent job on this book.
I'm on my 4th "read" and I don't think it will ever get old for me. Buy it and enjoy!
"The anti-twilight"
If youre looking for a no-nonsense heroine who can handle her own then this is the book for you. Its exciting, funny, and romantic, though there is no damsel-in-distress waiting to get married and have babies in this book. Katsa is both strong willed and minded and a fresh alternative to the heroines desperately pining away in other YA novels. The full cast audio was weird at first, but now I prefer it. I think this is Cashore's best work to date, Fire has been a bit of a chore to get through in comparison.
"Good but lacks depth."
First of all, the full cast narration for me was difficult to get through and at times distracting (like the little jingles when the main character runs)
Overall the story is good but not great, wished the author would have done more. (I read Fire before writing this review and still feel like the author could do so much more)
The author has some really great ideas but to me they are never fully developed. The concept of a graceling, the powers, the limitations, the types, is all very intriguing but not explained in depth. The author does explain two or three types of graceling powers but left me wanting to know much more about the graceling concept.
The book really focuses on two main characters and glosses over the other characters. There seems to be a lot of traveling that doesn't advance the storyline. Events do happen while the characters travel but overall they are insignificant.
Once you're a quarter into the book the rest of the storyline is pretty obvious, no big surprises.
If you are looking for a book about an unprecedented assassin as other reviews would lead you to believe, this is not your book. This book focuses more on relationships between characters.
Overall it is an alright book but could have been amazing if the author would have done more.
I have read Fire and intend to read Bitterblue when it is release.
Side Note: I consider myself to be fairly conservative and in no way did this book offend me as it relates to the act of sex, fornication or an anti-marriage message. Other reviewers make it sound horrendous and it is not.
Julie @ Reading Room Reviews
"Excellent Story"
Wonderful reader, well written and very exciting story. Not my usual genre, but I loved this story. Funny, sassy heroine and well written hero.
"I wanted to love this book."
I got this book because of the good ratings.However the reviews are mixed.This is a young ADULT novel.The premise is new and the plot was good.Things did wrap up a little too easy and after the inital issue was taken care of the book still had another hour or so that was kinda slow. Comments have been made about the sex and anti-marriage theme.Katsa has been controlled all her life because of her "grace".She is finally free and does not want to marry but she does fall in love and is committed to Po.AFTER they fall in love they do have sex, which is MOSTLY only implied.This book has several violent episodes.Again---young ADULT.
I did not care for the full cast audio, one good female narrator would have been better.Reason--Katsa is the main player,she is female,most of the thoughts and feelings were hers.The music was distracting and I jumped almost every time it came on.
"Good story but bad Narrator"
The story is great the Narrator is annoying. i think that maybe the book work be a better choice.
I love reading and listening to books and I hardly want to do anything else. I prefer fantasy & mystery books but I'll read anything...
"WOW! This book was AWESOME!"
Katsa! I love a girl who's not content to be some poor damsel in distress. She fought for what was right and while she can be a bit rough around the edges she truly is a kind soul.
The Narrator the main one was probably my favorite. I didn't think a guy would be good at capturing a girl's thoughts so well but he did a great job.
YES! I hated turning off the story but you do have to socialize with real people some of the time.
This was a book that I had been wanting to read for a very long time. I am so glad I finally did and the full cast audio version was-I think- the best way to listen to it. I can't wait to start the next book in the series.

What causes ringworm?Although the world is full of yeasts, molds, and fungi, only a few cause skin problems. These agents are called the dermatophytes, which means "skin fungi." An infection with these fungi is sometimes known as dermatophytosis. Skin fungi can only live on the dead layer of keratin protein on top of the skin. They rarely invade deeper into the body and cannot live on mucous membranes, such as those in the mouth or vagina. Scientific names for the most common of the dermatophyte fungi that cause ringworm include Trichophyton rubrum, Trichophyton tonsurans, Trichophyton interdigitale, and/or Trichophyton mentagrophytes, Microsporum canis, and Epidermophyton floccosum. What are the sources of skin fungi?Some fungi live only on human skin, hair, or nails. Others live on animals and only sometimes are found on human skin. Still others live in the soil. It is often difficult or impossible to identify the source of a particular person's skin fungus. The fungi may spread from person to person (anthropophilic), from animal to person (zoophilic), or from the soil to a person (geophilic). Heat and moisture help fungi grow and thrive, which makes them more commonly found in skin folds such as those in the groin or between the toes. This also accounts for their reputation as being caught from showers, locker rooms, and swimming pools. This reputation is exaggerated, though, since many people with "jock itch" or "athlete's foot" have not contracted the infection from locker rooms or athletic facilities. Reviewed by William C.

Not Going to College
My parents didn't really mind if I went to college or not. They didn't go themselves: my dad went to a trade high school and my mom eventually got a associates degree, so I guess they figured if I didn't go it wouldn't be a big deal.
I really did want to go, however, and they didn't stop me and helped me as much as I could.
Now I have two little sisters, ages 11 and 8. You would think in this day and age, and with their older sister in college, they would automatically just want to go. But they don't, and even at this young age they're asking things like "Do I really need to go to college? What jobs can I get if I don't go to college?"
I mean, I guess I like how they're asking about jobs, so they're not just expecting to find a man with money and get by that way, but I still find it a bit odd neither of them really want to go to college.
I know they're still young, and minds change, but when I was little college was just never a question in my mind. I wanted to go because I wanted to get all the school I could.
Do you think it's bad that they have no interest in going, even at this young age where they're free to dream about whatever they want?

Is there a time limit from painting time to sanding and buffing? It is bc/cc. TIA, Jake
Is there a time limit from painting time to sanding and buffing? It is bc/cc. TIA, Jake
If you sand and polish before the paint has fully cured it can be a lot easier but the timing can depend on several factors.... In many cases the quality of the material will determine how hard the paint will get. Different temperatures will cause the paint to cure at different rates so 60 degrees will allow the paint to stay softer longer while a higher temp will cause it to get hard faster. Many paints will have different speed hardeners that can extend or shorten the hardening process.
When we use Glasurit we usually try to do all of our sanding and polishing between 24 and 48 hours after the application of the paint when the temps are around 70 degrees F. After the paint is polished we usually wait a week or two then go back and give it the once over to help remove buffing swirls. However if you wait until the paint is fully cured the finish can still be sanded and polished, it will take longer but it's less likely you will damage the hard paint.
So, after all that, it really doesn't matter how long you wait as long as the paint is semi-hard before you start.
ive had some issues where the cars look liken glass an 2 weeks later come back for rebuff and cut after a lil shrinking now instead of cutting it twice 2xthe work,material an leaving less clear i wait 2 weeks then buff an have no issues...
style,now I am almost ready just got to learn the lingo, the salesmans art of commnunication, closing and sealing the deal!
Oh sh*t does this mean I have to speak spainglish or spanish,f*ck and write it too,fu*k go back to school and take business courses,spanish,wtf 10 years down the road I will have to speak japanese too huh?
I have the car on a rotisserie so it is in a million pieces. I will have to leave the fenders, doors etc in the garage when I paint the body. I will cover them of course but I don't want to have to buff them again if I get any overspray on them.
On a side not Len, I still have not used the turbine system I bought from you about three years ago. Life keeps getting in the way of my projects. Lol
ever heard of liquid masking..i used to paint in my house garage all the time no ventalation all sealed of course one fender or bumper only but even covered cars would still have overspray so i bought some liquid masking put tape then paper then one sheet over area to be painted sprayed whole car with it waited 15 mins took off paper to reveal area to paint cleaned it real good non amonia glass cleaner painted next day removed paper buffed wased car soap an water an 0 overspray...
just a thought..
If you use a decent high solids clear you can cut and polish while the paint is not fully cured and it will polish a lot easier. Come back a week later and polish it lightly again to remove the swirls and get a super hard shine. Waiting until a "good" quality paint is fully cured can make the polishing a much longer effort. However if the paint is applied very smooth and the sanding is finished with 3000 or 4000 grit then polishing after full cure isn't too bad.
when people are payin 800 for completes its hard to use GOOD products most of the time i end up using crossfire base and finish one clear though latley for spots the ipc is doing pretty good..
in the past couple weeks ive beenusing crossfires cc5020 clear and its giving me a really deep wet shine for 60 bucks more then the 100 finish one kit...

The cast features newcomers and seasoned actors from the Berry stage including seniors Jennifer Allman and Kali McMillian, juniors Darren Barnet, Spencer Miller, and Allie Southwood, and freshman Rachel Blair.
The production is directed by Richard Bristow.

My friend Wendy had the same thing but since this was about 4 or 5 years ago, she lost part of her left leg from the knee down. She also had part of her lung removed, but she's cancer free now:) I hope that gives you any consolation. She gets around fine because she has a titanium prosthetic leg. This is her- I had the hardest time looking for a pic where she didn't have a drink in her hands lol.

generative modeling for Rhino
Daniel what you do is very interesting! We can learn a lot from each discussion. About your model, is there a way to reorganize the anchor points (the naked mesh edges) from a rectangular distribution to a circular one?
Thanks for the reply, but I don't want to start from a mesh with irregular triangles and quads (for example transforming a NURBS to a mesh).
My aim is to start from a quadrialteral mesh (with rectangualar border) and then "relax" also the border vertex to obtain a circular border. In this way I can mantain a quadrilateral and regular topological mesh (for example I could use T-spline to create smooth NURBS). Is there a way to "repel" the vertices of naked edges?
Thanks again
Sounds like a constrain to curve option would be really useful here.
I probably won't get round to it until after smartgeometry now, but I will add this in a future release.
In the meantime, you could do this by placing anchor points around the starting square border and moving them towards pre-defined target points on the circular border while the simulation is running.
I think maybe you have a different version of UTO's mesh tools, and the NakedEdge component in that.
Mine has a V, A and B output, whereas yours there has only V and A
Daniel it's very interesting your approach! Now I will try to apply this definition to the relaxation one to obtain circular meshes with quadrilateral topology.
Let's start!
Bye and thanks so much

When someone is diagnosed with gestational diabetes during pregnancy, it can be frightening.
There are things that you can do both during and after pregnancy, to keep you and your baby healthy.
It is important to return for your postpartum check-up after the baby is born, as instructed. Your diabetes may or may not go away after the baby is here. Therefore, it is important to follow-up with your provider.
Continue to see your health care provider on a regular basis or as directed. You may think you feel fine, but, one in ten mothers with gestational diabetes may have diabetes after pregnancy too.
It is very good to breastfeed your baby. Babies whose mothers have had gestational diabetes may be at a higher risk of developing diabetes later on in life. Breastfeeding can help prevent childhood obesity and may protect the child later in life against diabetes. For those who may have difficulties with breastfeeding, please ask for help.
When you talk with the baby's doctor, it is important that you tell you had gestational diabetes. This is important, because, your baby is at a higher risk later in life for developing obesity and diabetes. You and the baby's doctor can talk about healthy lifestyle habits for you and your baby that may be helpful to prevent this from happening.
Remember to watch your weight. A healthy weight can help to control diabetes after your pregnancy is over or may help to prevent future problems with diabetes. Talking with your health care provider about a healthy weight goal may be helpful.
Always strive to make healthy food and exercise choices. When choosing foods, think about vegetables and fruits, lean meat, low fat dairy products and whole grains to help you, your baby, and family stay healthy. Exercising every day or physical activity that fits in your routine is another way to help stay healthy. Living a lifestyle with healthier habits can help prevent diabetes and other problems in the future for you and your baby. Always strive to do your part to have a long and healthy life!

Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) has granted an exclusive use of aquatic licence for the safe staging of a fireworks display on Lake Macquarie on Saturday - Australia Day.
RMS Maritime Principal Manager North Sonia McKay said boaters should keep clear of Lake Macquarie at Speers Point from 8pm to 9.30pm.
'This area will be used exclusively for the safe staging of a fireworks display organised by Lake Macquarie City Council,' Ms McKay said.
'The exclusive use area will be in a radius of 150 metres around the firing position at Speers Point and marked by red floats.
'For safety reasons, skippers should avoid this area as it will be restricted for the event and patrolled by club and control vessels,' she said.
Ms McKay said vessels would not be permitted to enter the exclusive use area unless authorised by a boating safety officer or a police officer.

Comments: i have already left a comment saying how good this bait is but i just want to give everyone a tip, when your texas rigging it with a keel weighted hook and it gets torn up just nose hook it like a drop shot basically with the keel weighted hook and it swims perfectly for 3 or 4 more fish
From: Trevor
Comments: The 4.5in is killer but the 3.5 doesn't swim well because the paddling tail is too small. You have to burn it to get the tail to kick
From: Chris: Ohio
Comments: I bought these swimbaits and went fishing for 2 hours. The water was 52 degress and i casted it up into 2 feet of water and pulled it through the weeds. I caught so many fish i went through 5 of these in 2 hours. I was using the 4.5 inch in baby bass and i would recommend them. buys these for sure. best swim baits out there. i was fishing them weedless on a weighted swimbait hook.
From: Conner: Buffalo, MN
Comments: This is the only thing the bass in the pond i frequent will hit, and when they hit it they tear it off the hook. The thumping action of the tail drives them crazy. Awesome lure and I will not use another kind of swimbait from now on.
From: Tom: Albany, GA
Comments: These are really a head up on the competition, the durability is typical of most hollowbodies, but the action is just killer, i was catching fish on back to back casts on this until i ran out. I refuse to release the magic color and size. You'll have to find that out for yourself.
Comments: These are the first swim baits i have ever used and boy can i say they are amazzzinggg! the first time i used them i was fishin for about five hours without a bite and tied one of these on and rigged it weedless, started fishing in about a foot to two feet deep and started pulling fish out one after another! only swimbait ill use now! u must buy!!!

Alcohol Compliance Checks were conducted Friday, Oct. 5, on local businesses in Blair, which are licensed to sell alcoholic beverages. A compliance check is a tool to identify alcohol establishments that sell alcohol to underage youth. The checks were coordinated by the Blair Police Department, Wichita Mountains Prevention Network, and student volunteers.
The youth volunteers (under the age of 21) assisted law enforcement as underage buyers. The students entered the businesses and attempted to purchase alcoholic beverages. Out of the five checks done, two retail establishments were not in compliance.
Illegal alcohol use by underage minors contributes to various crimes, car crashes, injuries, and even deaths across the State of Oklahoma. Public Health officials report that alcohol use and abuse is also associated with sexually transmitted diseases, teenage pregnancy, sexual assault, and other health problems.
According to Wichita Mountains Prevention Network Prevention Specialist Kim Booker, "We have learned that the community and our youth are safer and healthier when they don't start using alcohol under after they are 21 years of age."
