Historical Background
DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) was discovered in early 1990s, when the catalytic activity of a protein kinase triggered by double-stranded DNA was reported for the first time. Interestingly, it was noted that the kinase functions efficiently only in the presence of linear but not supercoiled DNA (Carter et al. 1990). Independently, DNA-PK was reported to phosphorylate transcription factor Sp1 and a number of other DNA-binding proteins. Furthermore, protein Ku was identified as an essential component of DNA-PK and confirmed as a binding subunit that served to recruit DNA-PK catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs) (Gottlieb and Jackson 1993). Another important breakthrough came from Stamato and his colleagues in 1994, who reported lack of double-strand break (DSB) DNA binding activity in radiosensitive rodent cell line and attributed it to the Ku heterodimer absence (Getts and Stamato 1994). Since then,...

I've noticed that for all of the poker affiliates and poker room review sites out there, there is very little help for the punter in working out which bonuses actually represent good value. The poker review site rankings usually bear no resemblance at all to the real value of the bonuses - I can only assume that they push the bonuses that are best value for them as opposed to those that are best value for you.
Therefore, I intend to compile my own list of the best value bonuses based on my own experience and research. I am particularly interested in comments about the bonuses, especially any suggestions on bonuses which should be included. I will always rank the bonuses based on the best interests of the punter. Sometimes I will recommend my own affiliate link (from which I make a small commission), but only where there is not another better value option available (that I know of).
Bear in mind that this list is compiled from the point of view of primarily a low-limit shorthanded limit holdem player.
So here goes:
The poker bonus hall of fame
***** Five star bonuses: These are the premium bonuses. They represent probably better than 200% rakeback when played correctly.
- Party Poker has a fantastic bonus offer via Poker Source Online. Deposit $100, earn 125 party points and you get $150 bonus. That takes a bit over 700 hands playing 0.5/1 limit, or less than 5 hands per dollar. Again, this is incredible value (maybe 400% rakeback if you play tight). Party is a great site with high traffic, good PokerTracker support and plenty of fishy tables. Use my link to Poker Source Online, and I get a small commission (but you don't get any less). Click on the "free money" link at PSO.
- Gnuf has another good Poker Source Online bonus. You deposit at least $50, and earn 500 "Gnuf points" (500 hands raked 0.25 or higher playing 0.5/1 limit or 360 hands at 1/2 limit). You get 12000 "PSO points", which can be taken as $120 on a few different sites including Party. Gnuf is on the Microgaming network. Traffic is fairly low, but the games are usually fishy enough. Click on the "free gifts" link at PSO.
- FullTilt has an excellent Poker Source Online bonus. Deposit $100, earn 250 "FullTilt" points (one point per dollar raked at the table) to win 12000 "PSO points". This is another superb bonus, working out at 200% to 500% rakeback depending on how you play it. As bort points out however, since FullTilt is one of the top traffic sites you may be better off in the long term going for a rakeback deal. You can earn 27% rakeback at PSO or at raketherake.
- Ladbrokes via Boogster. Boogster is another kickback bonus site with many good value bonuses. The bonuses can be takes as gift certificates to Full Tilt for example.
- Ultimate Bet has another good bonus via Poker Source Online. Deposit $100, earn 400 "Ultimate Points", and you earn $125 from PSO and $10 from UB (out of a larger bonus that you may not bother to complete). This took me about 700-800 hands, and I suspect it is possible to do it faster.
- Hollywood Poker via Poker Source Online. Deposit >$50 (best if you deposit $20 then a second deposit to get a manageable bonus), earn 325 "Player Points" (essentially this is dollars raked in hands in which you contribute to the pot), and you earn 12000 PSO points (=$120) and $40 from Hollywood. Hollywood is on the OnGame network, which seems to be among the tougher networks out there - lots of tight aggressive players. The traffic is excellent though so there are plenty of tables to choose from.
- Pacific Poker has a good signup offer via Pokerlistings. The "instant" part of the bonus is 50% up to $175, and is excellent value (there is a further $300 which is earned via points, but this is not good value on it's own). You have to wager 20x the bonus amount before you can cashout, which represents a bit less than 100% rakeback at Pacific's rather steep rake structure. What makes this bonus worth four star however are the excellent freerolls for Pokerlistings players. There is a regular $5000 monthly freeroll, which usually has under 200 runners. There are also regular freeroll satellites for the WSOP, the EPT and other big live events. You have to qualify for these freerolls through play, but the value of the tickets is still very very good.
- Captain Cooks Casino is a small poker room on the Microgaming network. It has a standard 50% up to $200 bonus, which cashes out at $1 per 10 raked hands (raked 0.25 and higher). This is results in anywhere from 50% to 200% rakeback depending on which limits you play. If you want to sign up to Captain Cook, tell me your email address so I can send you a referral - I get $100 referral fee, and your signup bonus is unaffected. Put your email address in a comment and then delete the comment if you don't want it to remain on display.
- VCpoker has the fastest cashing bonuses on the iPoker network as far as I know (most, including Titan and CDpoker are woefully slow). You get approximately 8c of bonus for every dollar that is raked at the table. That's nearly 80% rakeback if you play full ring games. The signup bonus is 300% up to $600, and it cashes out in $5 increments. See below for the free35 deal that you can get in addition to the deposit bonus. They also have fairly regular reload bonuses that are also good value.
Special mention- no-deposit bonuses: No deposit bonuses are a fantastic way to get started in online poker with no risk. My own start came via the VCpoker "free35" offer. These bonuses are usually not good value for someone who already has a bankroll, since the cashout requirements are usually fairly onerous - the deposit bonuses are also usually better value.
- Poker Source Online has a number of no-deposit bonuses, which change from time to time. Currently offered are Party Poker, Action Poker and Absolute Poker. I would avoid the Party Poker no-deposit bonus for now, because the deposit bonus is much better value. The other two look worthwhile though.
- VCpoker has a long running "free35" offer, where you get $10 up front and $25 earned through points. You can also get the 300% up to $600 deposit bonus. VCpoker has the fastest cashing bonuses on iPoker, so these bonuses are good value - particularly if you play full ring games. Click here for details.
This post is a work in progress - check back later for more bonuses!

To have the most success with your garden, you need to take care of it. However, it is possible to be smart about your organic horticulture. You have the ability to produce healthy, delicious produce on your own property. If you apply the tips from this article, you will have a lush, green organic garden.
Climbing plants make a strong addition to walls, fences or other free-standing structures. These versatile plants can grow over fences to enhance the fence's appearance. Often, climbers grow quickly, so you'll get the effect you want by the time the season changes. No need to worry if a bush or tree is in the way, as climbers can grow through them. Also, they can match the shape of an arbor. Some types of climbers support themselves naturally through twining stems or tendrils, but others will have to be attached to something. Honeysuckle and jasmine are very beautiful varieties of such climbers.
To grow properly, plants need adequate levels of CO2. With a high level of CO2 plants will grow much better. The best way to get a lot of it is through a greenhouse. Plants grown in a greenhouse tend to be more lush and healthier due to the improved growing environment.
When gardening in the fall, you need to be watching for stink bugs. They like beans, peppers, tomatoes and many fruits. They can do serious damage in your garden, so look for an effective method of reducing their population.
Protect your tender deciduous shrubs. Fragile shrubs, that are planted in pots, should be covered to protect them during the cold season. Tie these canes at the top, and place a blanket over it. When you do this you allow air to flow and circulate which can actually prevent rotting, this method is great and better than just wrapping your plant in some plastic.
Knee Pads
Knee pads are a gardener's friend when caring for plants low to the ground. Horticulture is supposed to be relaxing and enjoyable; you don't want to finish every gardening session with aching, throbbing knees. Your knees can get supported with a decent pair of horticulture knee pads.
There are natural materials, and you can also use other plants to help keep pests away from your garden. For example, slugs can be deterred by the presence of marigolds or onions. Insects can be deterred if you use wood ash instead of mulch around trees and shrub seedlings. Using methods like these eliminates the need for chemical pesticides, which can be harsh or even harmful.
Try planting some heather to draw beautiful insects to your yard. Bees love heather, and it's one of the earliest sources of nectar for the bees when they emerge during springtime. Heather beds are typically left untouched, which is why helpful little critters like ground beetles and spiders call them home. Because of this, you should put on a pair of gloves when it's time to prune the heather.
When your plants begin to sprout, they can survive in somewhat cooler temperatures. Move your plants away from the heat as they grow. Plastic films should be removed on the containers, as that helps to keep out humidity and warmth. Watch your seeds carefully to know when you can take these steps.
Spend your time working efficiently in your organic garden. Don't waste your time by searching high and low for that packet of seeds or spade. Get all of your tools together before you go into your garden, then place them in a safe spot when you are finished with them. If you need to use a tool belt, try using some pants with pockets in them.
Organic horticulture will help you create a truly fresh and nutritious garden. An organic garden is a ton of work to make successful but well worth the effort.

Finding Zen, Part Two: Bali
Originally published on Passion Passport.com
A fake world met them at the airport in Bali. Or, at least, that's what it felt like.
They'd left Kamala in Kathmandu, the goodbye drawn out in repetitive statements and repeated questions. Adjusting to being back in a city after so much time spent with the only the mountains and each other was difficult. Everything felt more intense than it needed to be. But the world was still there when they descended from the mountains.
After 28 hours of travel, three flights, and a bout of food poisoning, Bali felt calm. Warm air met them when they walked out of the airport. This was a comfortable place, with an easy, but tangible energy hanging around everywhere.
They found normal in the strange, in the unusual.
On the edge of a huge cliff in Bingin, waves crashing below, they lay on small beds as monkeys lingered around. In a second, a Kindle disappeared, snatched by a sneaky primate. They laughed and bartered with him, offering an apple in exchange for the much more valuable object he held.
A yoga class with 80 other people who they suspected were all expatriates. Recommendations for places to eat breakfast and buy smoothies, all given because people just wanted to share the things they were excited about.
The discovery of a hotel made completely out of bamboo and a world-renowned school dedicated to sustainability. There couldn't have been a bigger contrast between two back-to-back places on their itinerary.
Finding the "food truck state of mind" in Ubud but in a smaller way, with the men who stopped on the side of the road and cooked with a stove attached to their motorcycle. Seeing history in the temples and tradition in the banana leaf offerings in the driveways each morning.
Rolling green hills with rice terraces in between small surfer towns with motorcycles and healthy bowls of colorful fruit. Kate and Kyle reveled in the simplicity.
Their year of travel was simple in and of itself, but Kate couldn't help but think about the needless stress in the life she'd left behind in the United States. Worries about clothes and wearing makeup, owning a home, and making enough money.
So much of what she'd seen so far had put things into perspective. But most of all, it's the mindset, the feelings Kate hopes she will remember when she gets back to California.
While driving around the island, their favorite Balinese local made them stop at one particular bar to try a specific kind of coffee. They had time, so much time — why not?
He loved meeting travelers and talking to people, making a living by transporting others from place to place. There was something genuine about him, something true that was present in every person they met on the tiny island.
Kate and Kyle found something special in this place of simplicity. There was Zen in Bali too, in an entirely different way.

The purpose of this study was to explore connections among perceived caring climate, empathy, and student social behaviors in high school bands. Nine high school band directors, along with their students, from Miami-Dade County Public Schools voluntarily participated in the study (N = 203 students, N = 9 schools). Participants completed an electronic questionnaire for variables of caring climate, cognitive empathy, affective empathy, positive social behaviors, negative social behaviors, and victimization. Demographic information for both students and teachers were also collected, along with school and band information. Two multiple linear regressions were performed and results showed that cognitive empathy predicted positive social behavior. Caring climate also influenced student social behavior; students with higher perceptions of caring climate were less likely to engage in negative social behavior. T-tests and ANOVA results showed that student perceptions of caring climate differed according to (a) the number of years their teachers have taught at current school, (b) band size, (c) school socioeconomic status, and (d) whether the students held a leadership position in band. Students had higher perceptions of band caring climate when (a) teachers remained at the school for more than five years, (b) bands had smaller enrollments, (c) schools were Title One schools, and (d) when students did not hold leadership positions in band. Although victimization did not seem to be problematic, some students did report varying levels of victimization, mostly psychological and social bullying. Students who reported victimization perceived caring climate lower than students who did not report any victimization.

My first reading with John after many many readings with others. John is the most talented and precise medium I have ever come across. After years of searching, John has put my mind at ease with such precise details and instructions from my grandmother I don't doubt him for a second. He told me things he could not possibly have known and gave constructive advice. I will definitely be calling on John again, he's the real deal and also extremely kind. Thank you John.

Giuseppe Sexto Canegallo
(Italian, 1892 – 1966)
New Dawn, circa 1920
Oil on canvas laid down on board
39.1/4 x 27 in. (100 x 69 cm.)
Giuseppe Sexto Canegallo falls between the two art movements of divisionism and futurism, it is amazing to consider that this was painted in around 1920. His palette uses a pointillist style which is so forward thinking that one would on first inspection consider this to be a painting from the 1970's confirming that he was perhaps half a century ahead of his time.
Price: £10,200

With back-to-school season heading your direction, we're sure you have gathered many lists of supplies, like notebooks, pencils, and crayons that your child needs for school. While those are important for your child to learn their best, it's also important that you consider what your child may need to either prevent hearing loss or help if they are already experiencing it.
Here is a quick list of some hearing health supplies for your child's return to school:
Written instructions/notebook with important information. If your child is already experiencing some hearing loss, wears a cochlear implant, or has a hearing aid, it can be vital to provide teachers and faculty/administrators with instructions on how your child's device works and what to do in case it stops working. You can also provide instructions for ways to communicate with your child in case of emergencies – especially if you aren't able to reach the school in time – or request specific seating for your child in the classroom.
Hearing aid/cochlear implant accessories. Provide your child's teacher with extra batteries, a dry kit, and cord clips for your child's device, as well as instructions on how these items work. This will ensure there is already a backup plan in case anything happens to your child's device during the school day.
Noise cancelling headphones. To prevent hearing loss, you should discuss noise and music level with your child before they use their music devices. However, you can also make sure they wear noise cancelling headphones, instead of earbuds, in order to protect their hearing from elevated conversations and road noise while riding the bus. Your child can also wear these in other scenarios, like recess or music class if the environment is too loud.
Hearing protection for sports. If your child is at the age to participate in contact sports or recess outside, you may want to get them ear protection for those times. A strong blow to the ear from a ball, hand, or other object can cause permanent damage to their ear drum and, ultimately, hearing loss. Wearing the proper protection can help prevent this from happening. If your child also participates in swimming during school hours, consider swimming ear plugs.
Be sure to speak with your child's teachers often to ensure their devices have been working properly in the classroom and to make sure they're in the best learning environment with respect to their hearing health.

Stefanie Freele
First there is the sadness. It comes about like slow fog, a consoling oceany fog, or perhaps like a sweater without the foghorn. Thick, warm, shielding.
It sneaks up over the past few weeks and rapidly she finds her forehead on the wall and her mouth saying, "I can't." What it is she can't, she can't express. She just can't.
She knows she should call her doctor, but if only today she can rest before her husband comes home expecting dinner. He'll be cheerful and briefcase-plopping and rainjacket-hanging and cheek-kissing. But, he'll also be so gosh-darn I've-been-on-the-subway-and-I'm starving. Why do people have to keep eating and eating and eating? She thinks a monthly meal should be sufficient along with a bi-weekly snack.
The kitchen is red with black tiles. Loud colors that confront her each time she chops and stews and mixes. She detests the kitchen, fears the tiny window, the rumbling fridge, the white table. There is nothing comforting about the chairs, nothing supplying within the cupboards, nothing handy in the drawer.
At 5:15 she calls in a pizza, leaves a cash-filled envelope at the door and cries into her pillow about the red and black tiles – how they always look dirty, about the crumbs in the bottom of the microwave – there are always more. She hates her job, loathes the old people and their smell, worries about the handles on their wheelchairs – does anyone ever wash those handles? How does that Thursday woman, named Kit, cut their hair with such cheer? Snip! Snip!
At 8:01am she calls her doctor and receives a prescription and then a bottle by 10:30. By 5pm, she plans chicken, by 6pm they've eaten, by 7pm they've read the paper. At 8:15 she announces she is going for a walk.
The sky is darker than the black toilet seats in the public bathroom at the doctor's office. Noises and smells. Lasagna. Cat urine. A bus. Before bed she licks honey off her husband.
In the morning she makes cupcakes.
Three weeks more of the medication and the dose doubles itself. She throws away the pill cutter and peels off the prescription label.
She colors her hair brassy red, sassy red, the red of confidence, bossiness, pushiness. The red of a completed business folder. A project they can't say no to. She walks across the parking lot in heels, with pantyhose, a skirt that matches the shoes, that coordinate with the jacket, and a silk shirt underneath with a new lace bra, panties no one will see, but like it all, they are flawless.
The boss gives her a raise, a project, a promotion. She says things like I'm a can-do-person.
Her husband loves the dinners, loves the back massages, but quietly suggests she slow down, chatter less, save more, shop later. Enough.
She isn't interested in being held, nor snuggling, nor square dancing, nor watching another movie. Let's walk, she says, and they traipse the city, mapping out the streets. She convinces him that they will cover every road by foot before the rainy season begins. Each night they'll walk ten to twelve miles. Hurry, she says and buys him jogging shoes, the best, fitted just for his sturdy foot. I'll be your trainer, I'll get us in shape.
But what about the news? He wants to watch tv and rub his toes together at the end of the couch.
We are the news.
The boss says that if she could stop bouncing her knee he could concentrate better on what he is about to say.
She doesn't wait for the what-he-is-about-to-say and says tell it to my lawyer.
Look at yourself, the boss calls out as she gathers the boxes and the monogrammed bag.
She drives out of the parking lot, much too early to go home, to make basil-tomato soup for hubby who will smear butter, immerse crusts, nod, say I love to dunk.
She heads north toward a dark cloud, a cloud that will appreciate her.
After many turns, many trees, many greens upon greens, a curve reveals an enormous redwood-tree-tall logger next to an unreasonably huge blue ox. Paul Bunyan's car-sized hand waves her over and while perched on his shoe, she reveals to Paul that she hasn't driven under the speed limit since she left her job.
Paul insists she try the free fudge in the gift shop which she responds with, I don't need food, Paul, I don't need food. You, you're big, you need lots of food. I need… and she pauses, unsure how to finish the sentence, looking through the crowd of tourists for what it is she needs.
A boy, about seven, clues her in. There is a man with a microphone, inside Paul's leg. Just a small man, hiding, the boy says, the giant isn't real.
She finds this news terrifying; an Oz-like employee works inside the giant's appendage, spouting off things like, Can I answer any questions for you? No? You know everything there is to know, do ya?
Paul tells the boy, who is kicking his leg, that Blue, the ox was frozen so long, he stayed blue for life.
The boy tries to pick the lock with a stick to the door-that-will-reveal-the-sham, until his father calls him over to restroom.
Let me give you a wave, says Paul to the boy, and waves that creepy car-sized hand far above the crowd. The hand creaks and moans like a rusty carnival ride. This causes her to sob.
In the parking lot of a campground, she holds a Styrofoam cup with a rock in it. A grasshopper, will soon hop onto the rock at the bottom and she'll catch him with the lid. Some are jumpers, some are landers, she tells the park ranger who is asking her if she drove all the way to the Oregon border in one day.
As she strips off the torn pantyhose, balls it into her pocket and kicks her heels into the trunk, she looks him in the eye – oh man of green uniform – and says, Yes! but, I forgot my hiking boots, where is the nearest REI?
No, she doesn't have camping gear, an annual pass, or drinking water.
Is there anyone he should call for her?
The puddle, the same puddle she drove through, so smooth and elongated, deliciously oval, she must place a naked foot into it. With eyes closed, she lifts her foot up and down, oozing and sucking, slurping that foot in the mud until the ranger interrupts –
I think you should just plan to wait here and not drive any further.
Why would she drive anyway, with such a soothing puddle to grip her heels and feet, to encompass her ankles like a forgiving mother?
When a truck, a big 4×4 of a slosh-pile roars up, she thinks she might embrace that larger-than-life tire, wrap her legs around it and ride through the park like a safari-triumphant woman. Perhaps they'll even let her hoist the rifle crossing the back window, and she asks them, can I hold your rifle and ride your tire?
One man laughs so abrupt he spits his sandwich bite on the dash. The other asks the park ranger if she is for real. Which, she responds by showing them the back of her neck, free of bites, scars, or tattoos which clarifies to everyone how real she really is.
Her husband running wetly across the parking lot, smelling like black coffee and newspaper, arrives at the station and takes her hand.
I'm not going anywhere without my rucksack, she insists.
No one at the station seems to know what rucksack she is referring to, the husband has never seen her with a rucksack and finally, a janitor-woman with the mop-and-bucket cart pushes by like a drained motel maid. The wife snatches from the cart a roll of toilet-paper, clutches it to her muddy chest and declares she has found her long lost rucksack and is now ready to go.
She thanks the officers who are taking turns letting the air out of their lungs, the air they have been holding for the last few hours while waiting for the husband to arrive.
The husband, undersized compared to the officers, looks too-thin, too unbuttered, too puzzled and fatigued. The poor man needs his wife.
The wife, still gripping her rucksack-toilet-paper, announces what everyone must be thinking, dear, you need a good meal.
The officers agree and pat him on the shoulder, sir, get some sleep. Several hotels nearby, many are affordable. One of the officers mentions a place to get the best clam chowder and they all agree, yes, you must go to Buccaneers, they'll treat you right.
Buccaneers it is! His wife announces. Sturdy and commanding, she leads her beleaguered husband toward the door, away from the band of staring uniforms, out into the misty evening where he can recuperate from his exhaustion, fill his stomach and clear his troubled head.

"Stay positive guys, we'll get it next time."
This was me trying to be enthusiastic and encouraging. We had been setting our trail camera consistently for months on end in ideal locations in the jungle, expectantly waiting to get a picture of the legendary and elusive Tasmanian Tiger that's often said to be extinct.
We had experienced the anxious excitement and anticipation of retrieving the trail camera, taking out the microchip, inserting it into our computer, then slowly scrolling through pictures taken over weeks and months of recorded jungle activity—only to get to the end and realize that we'd struck out. After going through this five or six times, it was hard not to be discouraged.
Maybe some of you have experienced this sort of disappointment? It's hard to stay positive when things don't go according to plan and all your hard work feels pointless.
Here is a journal entry I dug up, describing one hike we took to retrieve our trail camera:
Today Hudson, Pu, and I went back down to the salt licks . . . I'm a bit sore and scratched as usual, but my only disappointment was our poor results. Trail cam didn't pick up the Mbakngge . . . There were no tracks found like the previous three times. But we armed the trail cam once more; this time it's down there for the long hall . . . Trail cam will be faithfully taking pictures for a few months . . . I guarantee (Lord willing) we will get the picture we are after . . .
It is important to keep working toward your goals with positivity. We come to understand that endurance is sticking it out and not giving up. At the same time though, it is encouraging to know that whatever you are doing, you can trust that God is in total control and His will goes, no matter what.
So, did we ever catch the Tasmanian Tiger? I don't want to give away the surprise. You can join my brothers and me on the chase in our latest adventure DVD Tiger Trail to find out.

The wine country's got a lot of nerve, thinking that just because it's got serene vistas, delicious food, and copious wine you should always have to drive to it. Now coming to you: Healdsburg's Cyrus. Chef/owner Doug Keane's taking his vaunted Cali-French show on the road, offering the Cyrus experience (stately presentation, 4-8 courses, fawning service) anywhere in the Bay for parties up to 50 (if you need catering for more, consult your bridesmaids). Just ring up the resto for a course consultation (what/how many); dishes vary seasonally but expect variations on current goodness like seared foie gras w/ rum flambé and pain perdu, and mustard frothed pappardelle w/ braised rabbit, as well as Cyrus' caviar, shaved truffles, and artisanal cheeses -- which will have you shouting "Artisinal cheese, please!" despite the lack of ball pit/animatronic mice. The grub's prepared day-of-shindig, and delivered along with Cyrus serving staff, tables, china, as well as linens (Linens n' Things?). Cyrus can also handle beverages, either by stocking you from their Sonoma-centric wine list, or sending out bartenders to mix specialty cocktails like the zesty "Bardstown Sazerac" and the gin/maraschino/chartreuse "Last Word" -- which, since you're already comfortably at home, should be "more".

Good morning!
I am currently trying to run a .bat file through Windows Task Scheduler to launch a Capsule that triggers a nested Call Procedure which then runs a series of Date Readers, Refresh reporting Screens, and then Broadcast the latest results to our Executive team's distribution list. However, the .bat file will open the Client only and not connect to the Central Server. LDAP Authentication has also been enabled.
The current .bat script is as follows:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Board\Board Client\BoardWinClient.exe" /host "BOARDServer:xxxx" sso/ "on" /Capsule "Folder \Report.cpsx"
Is there an additional parameter required to auto-connect to the specified host server?
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Just over two years ago, I read Tinkers, the first novel from Paul Harding that happened to win the Pulitzer Prize. It was so good. (Read the review of that here). I loved that book, and I was eager to read anything else from Harding. As soon as Enon was published, I purchased a copy. After reading the first chapter or so a year ago, I put it down, as I was not inclined to read the subject matter. I decided to give it another try now, and, unfortunately, I was disappointed.
First, the likes. I really like that this book exists in the same world as Tinkers. Our main character Charlie is the grandson of George in Tinkers. It's a clever conceit without being cheesy or sequel-y. I like how this is a slow-paced novel; no real fast-cuts or explosions. Slow. Thoughtful. Reflective. Real. I also like this writer's style. Harding has a distinct writing style of long sentences, longer paragraphs, and pensive writing. These types of books slow me down and force me to reflect and think.
The dislikes. The first is the main reason why I put this down a year ago: Charlie's middle-school daughter is killed in a car accident walking home from the beach. The book is how Charlie deals with this tragedy. His wife leaves him, and he becomes addicted to painkillers and descends into the dark world of drug addition. Imagine reading a book about drug addiction told from a really talented and thoughtful writer. This makes that world so much more painful. I wasn't able to think about the death of a child (and still am not) for "relaxing reading." On top of this, I realized how much I detest stories about drug addiction. That sinking makes me want to close the book on each page.
Another area that I didn't like was the telling of the story itself. I felt like Harding is too thoughtful and pensive, something that belies the character. Somehow, it feels forced and it doesn't fit the story. It's like an obituary written in comic sans font, if that makes any sense.
The main relationship is between the father and daughter, and that is a beautiful picture. When I read Tinkers, we did not have a daughter. This novel made me think much about our Grace. The fictional Charlie loved and liked his daughter Kate, and I couldn't stop thinking about my little girl. That's what made this reading especially difficult. There was this scene that I can't stop thinking about. Charlie and Kate played cribbage regularly, and after a game, they quickly put the board in the closet without removing the pegs. After Kate's death, Charlie finds the board, still pegged, still reflecting that last game. Sweet picture. A sad, sweet picture.
Charlie has another reflective moment. He is watching the Red Sox play the Mariners late night, the night before Kate is killed. In a flashback, he explains how she woke up and they have a short conversation about nothing together. She goes back to bed. Harding gives us this painful line: "As I slept, the Red Sox finally beat the Mariners, and an hour later the sun rose over the last day of my daughter's life."
See what I mean?
Highly suggested:
Buy Tinkers now!

A best friend
One of my favorite things to do these days is to go out with Angel. It used to be "I bring her out", now it's more like "we go out together". We talk about anything and everything. From a daughter that I take care of, Angel has become my friend, my little best friend.

Gold held a decline amid optimism for progress in U.S.-China trade talks that boosted equities in Asia Friday and Treasury yields overnight. Palladium traded above $1,400 an ounce.
Still, overall sentiment is positive for the precious metal. Gold traders and analysts in a weekly Bloomberg survey remained bullish for a 10th week. Peter Grosskopf, chief executive officer of Sprott Inc., said a shift in Federal Reserve policy will stoke investor interest, with the U.S. government shutdown, trade tensions, stock volatility and Brexit all adding to uncertainty, underpinning the appeal of bullion as a haven.
Spot gold little changed at $1,291.31/oz at 1:36pm in Singapore; -0.1% Thursday. Metal little changed this week.

A must-try ice cream recipe that combines creamy dairy with pecans that have been roasted in butter. Not the most nutritious dessert – but really good!
How to make butter pecan ice cream
This ice cream was really easy to make. Smother the pecans with melted butter then toast them in the oven until they're a shade darker. These nuts will soak up the butter and the mouth-feel of the nuts will become irresistible. The perfect add-in for ice cream.
Once you're finished with the pecans, transfer them to the fridge for at least half an hour to cool down. If the nuts are warm it will result in an ice cream that's icy.
Finally, you'll whisk up your milk, cream, vanilla and sugar until thoroughly combined then add to the ice cream maker. There's no need to heat the ingredients as we won't be using eggs.

High School Football
High school football finals set for first weekend of December at Kroger Field
Dates for the first high school football championship games to be played in Lexington since the 1970s have been finalized.
The KHSAA approved a three-day schedule for the 2017 Russell Athletic/KHSAA Commonwealth Gridiron Bowl as part of its first organized meeting of the 2017-18 school year over the weekend.
Action will kick off with the Class A finals at 2 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 2. The Class 3A finals will follow at 7 p.m. that night.
Saturday, Dec. 3, will feature a three-game slate: Class 2A finals (1 p.m.), Class 4A finals (4:30 p.m.) and Class 5A finals (8 p.m.) will be staged consecutively.
The Class 6A finals — which will feature the two largest schools participating — are scheduled for 2p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 4.
The KHSAA in May announced that it would move the football championships games to Kroger Field in Lexington from Bowling Green, where they had been contested since 2009. The last time Lexington, which projects to be less of a travel burden for many contenders, hosted the football finals was in 1976.
▪ The KHSAA also finalized cross-bracketing football playoff pairings for Class 2A, Class 3A and Class 4A. Those pairings can be found at bit.ly/2u5SRnY.

The White House on Saturday warned Russia and President Vladimir Putin against further military incursion in Ukraine, amid reports of armed separatists seizing government offices in the eastern city of Slaviansk.
In a statement, White House National Security Council spokeswoman Laura Lucas Magnuson said the situation was reminiscent of the lead-up to Russia's eventual annexation of Crimea.
"We are very concerned by the concerted campaign we see underway in eastern Ukraine today by pro-Russian separatists, apparently with support from Russia, who are inciting violence and sabotage and seeking to undermine and destabilize the Ukrainian state," she said.
"We saw similar so-called protest activities in Crimea before Russia's purported annexation. We call on President Putin and his government to cease all efforts to destabilize Ukraine, and we caution against further military intervention. We will continue to monitor the situation closely."
Ukrainian Interior Minister Arsen Avakov accused Russia of "aggression" Saturday after separatists reportedly seized government buildings in the cities of Donetsk and Slovyansk. Unrest has been growing in eastern Ukraine over the past week.
Slovyansk's mayor said the men who seized a police station there had demanded a referendum on autonomy and possible annexation by Russia — much like what happened in Crimea.
The White House also said Saturday that Vice President Joe Biden will travel to Ukraine Tuesday for meetings with government leaders and members of civil society.

Monophonic bass synthesizer. Sound is somewhere between the TB-303 and a Juno 106 bass. You can control the VCF, pitch, LFO or all from the pitch bender. It has a white noise generator, arpeggiator with up, down and up/down patterns and a simple real-time sequencer. The LFO offers random, sine, square or noise waveforms. And normal or auto portamento effects give you that elastic bass sound. There are external clock inputs for the sequencer and arpeggiator, CV/GATE inputs and outputs and a CV hold pedal.Can also be controlled by MIDI using a CV/MIDI converter.*I can provide delivery if needed. Please include details and the address in your reservation request, and I'll provide a quote for the delivery charge.*
Vintage piece, well maintained. Excellent.

Hi guys.... need some help / advice.
I'm trying to source a stubby style exhaust, but one which mounts using the existing 3 bolt arrangement flange on the existing original (black) 2002 down pipes. In other words I don't want to cut, saw, weld, glue, modify, add a link pipe etc etc.
I've only been successful in sourcing one on-line (in Poland) that meats the above criteria (bolt on muffler) and its not the style I want.
So do you guys know of companies that make suitable bolt on silencers?? Bike is a 2002 ZRX1200r
Cheers and good luck

I've probably said this before, but photographing new families is one of my favorite things to do. I always feel honored to get a glimpse into those early stages of parenthood, and see the amazing job that parents do as they are transitioning.
Karey and Lyle are already incredible parents. Their adoration for their first son makes my heart melt. Baby Asher is one lucky babe! I look forward to seeing him grow.
Even as he slept, Asher was so expressive. I just had to share a few...

Tenores de Aterúe presents a concert of harmonic singing from Sardinia, Corsica, and Italy. Founded in 2008, the Tenores have performed in the US and Canada, and in Sardinia, where they are recognized as the world's first non-native group to master the art of cantu a tenore, a tradition
al song form that involves harmonic throat singing in parts. With complex interlocking dance rhythms and ringing guttural overtones, the sound is otherworldly and infectiously downhome.
Tenores de Aterúe are Avery Book (bassu), Gideon Crevoshay (mesu oche), Carl Linich (contra), and Doug Paisley (oche). A new documentary film about the quartet's first visit to Sardinia. For a preview: https://aterue.com/
In their collaboration, Eva Salina & Peter Stan pick up and continue an interrupted legacy of empowered female voices in Balkan Romani (gypsy) music. Amplifying voices of past generations of Romani women musicians, Eva & Peter employ tenderness, grace, passion and a commitment to keeping these songs alive and evolving, while inspiring and teaching young people in the Balkans and the Balkan diaspora to continue to participate in living traditions. Their new album, SUDBINA, comes out 3/30/18on Vogiton Records. More info at www.evasalina.com

Be a Weirdo and Choose to Love
Years ago, we celebrated the 50th anniversary of my grandparents. We rented a hall and got a bunch of food and drinks and filled the place with dancing and celebration and memories. (We may or may not have performed a choreographed dance to Living on Love by Alan Jackson, but let's just leave that alone.) It was a beautiful time. Half a century of marriage! That is quite a feat, and quite a reason to praise God.
All relationships are hard, but marriage is hardest. It just is. So 50 years of it meant my grandparents went through a lot. They caused each other pain and they bore each other's burdens. They cried and laughed and probably drove each other completely nuts.
But they chose love.
When I was 16, I put my brand new truck in a roadside ditch. I had spent the evening drinking at a local amateur rodeo with some friends, and my buddies and I got in my truck to go home. I turned the corner on a slick backroad. To a braindead teenager like myself, it was a great opportunity to get sideways. I floored it, and we got sideways and then a little sideways-er, hitting a guard rail and sliding headlights skyward into the ditch. I got pulled out of the ditch, and then I called Dad. I knew I could always call Dad.
"Hey buddy." They were at a nice restaurant and I remember hearing plates and forks and conversational hum in the background.
(Voice shaking) "Dad, I've been in an accident."
"Are you okay?" He asked.
"Have you been drinking?"
"Get home. We will talk when Mom and I get there."
When my parents got there, we had the talk. I felt two feet tall. My truck was wrecked and so was my ego. But Mom and Dad didn't shame me. I had to pay for the damage and I was grounded for quite some time, but they spoke to my heart and not merely my behavior. I am certain they were disappointed - they told me so. But they were probably also furious. But even after their nice dinner out was interrupted because their moron son got drunk and wrecked the truck they'd bought for him, they restrained themselves.
They chose love.
Jesus should have been received with overwhelming praise and adoration. He came on a rescue mission, healing and feeding and caring for people. He was the embodiment of what the prophets had foretold in Scripture, and he came to free the world from sin and death. He was perfectly generous, perfectly wise, and perfectly moral. Yet he was hated. He was not only hated, he was despised. He was prosecuted for his scandalous message and tortured to death between two criminals.
But Jesus chose love.
He urged his Father to forgive his executioners. He invited one of the criminals next to him to join him in paradise. Every nerve in his body must have been on fire. He must have trembled from shock. But he mustered up love. And he offers that same love to us.
How do we choose to love when those around us are unlovable? Well, we really can't - unless we get some help. Logic would suggest we should just love those who love us and forget the rest. But the logic-defying Gospel of Jesus Christ gives another route: love foolishly. Enemies. Friends. Spouses. Outcasts. Everyone. Love those people who don't deserve it. Because we are those people. We are the sinners and outcasts who need Jesus to offer his grace and mercy.
We can only give that which we've been given. And because we've been given the most outrageous, unearned, crazy love of Jesus - we can share it with others. That's weird, though. It doesn't make sense to love people who you'd rather choke. It's not about feeling like loving, though. It's about loving. That's a verb, not a feeling.
May we choose love, especially when we don't feel like it. Not just because Jesus did, but rather because he still does - and because his Spirit lives inside those of us who follow him. With his help, we are able.

My husband is making me feel so unloved while I am five months pregnant — and he wasn't like this with our last pregnancy
Read Deidre's personal replies to today's problems
DEAR DEIDRE: I'M expecting our third baby and my husband won't come near me.
We've not had sex since I found out I was pregnant five months ago.
He works as much as he can or won't come to bed until the early hours, usually when I am asleep.
I am 35 and my husband is 37. I have tried talking to him to ask if anything is wrong but he insists everything is fine.
He says he is working the extra hours so that I can get whatever I want for the baby.
I tried initiating sex recently but he got up and said he had to get ready for work.
I feel unloved, unwanted and completely alone. I keep worrying that he has gone off me.
He wasn't like this during my previous pregnancies.
We weren't particularly active sexually then but we were still intimate with lots of hugs and kisses.
DEIDRE SAYS: Was this baby planned or was the last birth a traumatic one?
Ask him whether he has some worry about this baby he hasn't shared with you.
Suggest you at least give each other sensual massages to keep you physically close. My e-leaflet Couples Massage explains how.

In a recent discussion, a professor noted that the Affordable Care Act is actually unaffordable for many states where 27 states are worried enough about their budgets that they are challenging the ACA. I understand that over 1 million patients are opting out due to unaffordability.
