Thanks for the advice on sending files to my Web server. That�s working
I am now trying to access email. Ipopd is running on my server � i.e. I
can send myself email (to email@example.com) and when I type
telnet localhost pop-3
and log in, it tells me I have messages. (This also works if, instead
of typing 'localhost'. I type in the actual fixed IP address of my
machine, or mail.billyfirestudios.com or www.billyfirestudios.com)
I now want to be able to 'pop' the email from my Web server to my
Windows client.
In my client mail system (under Outlook) I have tried various pop
addresses, e.g. mail.billyfirestudios.com, www.billyfirestudios.com,
192.168.0.1 and the actual fixed IP address of the machine etc but I do
not seem to get a connection.
I am also able to run the telnet command from my Windows client i.e.
when I type:
telnet mail.billyfirestudios.com 110
using the 'RUN' command, it works fine.
I feel I must be close but missing something obvious. Any advice would
be gratefully received.

Traveling Zoo Fire Kills 300 Animals
An early morning blaze at a traveling zoo here destroyed the entire facility, leaving some 300 animals dead, including endangered species.
According to Moriyama Station of the Shiga Prefectural Police, the fire broke out in a building housing animals at Horii Zoo at around 1:55 a.m. on Feb. 25.
By the time the fire was extinguished three hours later, the 620-square-meter facility was completely destroyed, and approximately 300 animals (around 100 species) were killed, including endangered Bengal tigers, baboons, kangaroos, and monkeys.
There were heat lamps inside the facility, and police are investigating the cause of the fire.
The director of the zoo, Yoshinori Horii, 47, said that while there was a deadbolt on the outside of the door to the building housing the animals, it was usually left unlocked. He also said there were no people left at the zoo after he left at 9 p.m. on Feb. 24.
Horii Zoo travels to kindergartens and various events around the country to put its animals on display. Horii began gathering animals around 1982, and says he kept a combined total of some 900 animals (200 to 300 species) at the site in Moriyama and another in the city of Yasu.
"It was all I could do to rescue a pony and two goats," Horii said dejectedly. "I'd always been careful about taking precautions against fire."
Last September, a kangaroo from Horii Zoo -- which is located in a residential area about a kilometer east of JR Moriyama Station -- escaped for four and a half hours.

The giant panda is native to the mountainous temperate forests of southwest China. Due to farming and deforestation, the giant panda has been driven out of the lowland areas where it once lived. The most damaging result of development has been that it has divided the panda's habitat into little islands of forest. Today, many pandas are isolated in these small sections of forest, because they will cross into areas where humans live.
China created protected areas and breeding centers for protecting the giant panda.
The country has 37 official panda protecting areas.
All captive giant pandas are owned by 6 panda centres:
Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding
China Conservation and Research Centre for the Giant Panda (Wolong – Bifengxia)
Beijing Zoo
Chongqing Zoo
Fuzhou Panda World
Shanxi Rare Wildlife Save & Research Center Louguanta
Both CRBGPB & CCRCGP have loaned some of their pandas to different Chinese zoos like Changsha Zoo, Chengdu Zoo & Shanghai Zoo.
SAR HongKong & SAR Macau received giant panda pairs as gifts from mainland China.
Jia Jia, An An, Ying Ying & Le Le live at Ocean Park HongKong. Kai Kai & Xin Xin at Sec Vai Parc Macau.

Edge to edge problem
February 2014
I recently upgraded my Pro Stitcher and am attempting to do an Edge to Edge design. On the previous version, I would use the "half-stitch, disable motor, advance quilt, RESET CURRENT RESUME POSITION, half-stitch, resume, resume" method for starting a second design row. I've read the discussion posted in September of 2013 regarding setting up the entire design on the quilt. I have an HQ Avante. In referencing the "Getting Started Guide" page 13, the first bullet states the machine will move to the start point of the second row and take a pull up stitch. At what point do I advance the quilt if the row is larger than the space between the rollers? I ran into the same problem as Donnareppo in that the machine will hit the front roller.
May 2014
anyone find a way to stop the movement?
June 2014
Same thing for me... I can program in the entire quilt size, but going from the end of the row to the beginning of the next just doesn't work for me. The only way I've been able to make a work-around is to just try to eye-ball where to start the next row, which is not the way I think it should work.

Relationships take TME — Time, Money and Energy — to establish, build and maintain. It is far too easy to lose a relationship you might have had in the past with a particular customer, vendor or other stakeholder.
The process of life is that it is always evolving and changing. Smart marketers, who I like to call "Relationship Farmers," know about this and keep nurturing the process.
You might have had a great experience with that customer a while back. Hey, they loved you and your stuff! They loved the experience that was created. Too often it is easy to sit back, relax and think that it will continue like that forever.
Not on this planet, Sparky!
Things keep changing and you have to continually nurture a relationship to keep it healthy, vibrant and alive. New vendors enter into the lives of your customers. New methods develop that can make obsolete your old process and tools. Also, you know that great contact you had at ABC Co. a while back? Well, she got a better job offer with XYZ co. and is no longer with ABC.
So what can you do to keep relationships growing and maintain them? Here are some steps that can help you.
1. Realize that relationship marketing is on-going
You've got to keep nurturing and using what Jim Cecil has called "drip marketing." Stay in touch. Send them a quick email with something that will help them grow their business. Don't just blast email (or social media) about your product, your webinar or your event.
Engage with important people by giving them something that is helpful to them, not just about you! You've got to stay on their mind in a favorable way.

Chris Brown quitting music due to infamy over Rihanna beating
Chris Brown might be ready to give up music for good. The 24-year-old musician has had a troubled life in the spotlight, most infamously when he was charged with felony assault for beating then-girlfriend Rihanna. Though that incident occurred in 2009, Brown never seemed to be able to move past it and it seems that's driven him to want to get out of Hollywood.
"Don't worry mainstream America.After this X album, it'll probably be my last album," Brown tweets. "Being famous is amazing when it's for ur music and talent. I'm tired of being famous for a mistake I made when i was 18. I'm cool & over it!"
This comes after Brown turned himself into jail for his hit-and-run case. Brown was supposed to submit himself by Aug. 6, so he actually did it a day ahead of schedule. According to TMZ, Brown went to the Van Nuys, Calif. jail around 2 p.m. on Aug. 5 and was booked and released within 45 minutes. His next court date is Aug. 15, and he also has to appear at a probation violation hearing stemming from his Rihanna incident.

Nice B&B in a country setting close to many local points of interest. Great play to stay while visiting the nearby CIA and FDR historical sites. There is much to do within a short distance. While here, we enjoyed juices, bread, butter, jam, and sausage...all homemade...courtesy of our Innkeeper, Lee. We enjoyed getting his tips on what to see and do and where to dine during our stay. Recommend this B&B!

Our experience was a celebration of comfort. It is evident that the innkeepers continually search for ways to add details which make the inn excellent. From the homemade soaps in the private bathroom, the several well placed night lights , to the amazing gourmet breakfast - we savored it all. This is a most compementary delight to add to our visit the the CIA and the Roosevelt historic sights.

We just spent a wonderful weekend at the Willows Bed & Breakfast in Hyde Park. The building is quaint and lovely and obviously lovingly cared for. We really liked that there were just two guest rooms, and our room, the Green Room, was great. Lee and Lisa, who own and run the Willows, were really attentive and friendly. We didn't have an itinerary figured out in advance, but Lee gave us great suggestions about farms to visit and events in the area. For foodies like us, the BEST part about the Willows was the breakfasts. We've stayed in plenty of B&Bs that are cute to look at but where the "breakfast" consists of a stale croissant or some other uninspiring fare. The Willows was different - Lee is a graduate of the nearby Culinary Institutue of America, and his breakfasts are lovely. He served things like pancakes with rasberries (from his garden), bananas and candied nuts; sausage that Lee made himself; peaches with cream and shaved white chocolate; an egg soufflé with sweet corn, and freshly squeezed juice. All that made breakfast a good reason to jump out of bed in the morning!

My wife & I spent two nights at the Willows, a charming B & B nestled in the countryside. Inkeepers Lee & Lisa were avaialable but unobtrusive and were quick to show their garden and beehives which were used in making breakfast. Breakfast was excellent and unrushed-Lee makes his own butter and grinds his flour among other delights. The bedroom was cozy and stocked with complimentary beverages, home-made soap, and other amenities-the bath had a large claw-foot tub for soaking. With Lee being a CIA graduate, this is a great spot for parents visiting their CIA students. Jack & Donna October 5-6 2007

The innkeepers, Lisa and Lee, made us feel right at home but left us to do our own thing. The breakfast was not only very tasty but full of entertaining conversation. If you are looking for a relaxing weekend in a rustic, quiet, historical setting this will be a good choice. The original house is 200+ and has all sorts of great details. It definitely is not for loud guests with lead feet!

Book Description:
David Sitton was barely a man when he left surfing and partying to live in Papua New Guinea, a faraway, perilous land. Leaving Texas with a Bible, a suitcase (and a surfboard), he took the gospel into cannibalistic areas to people who had never heard the name of Jesus. For thirty-four years God has used him to help train missionaries, spread the gospel and establish dozens of churches in remote regions. Through this book, experience the amazing things God did as David recklessly abandoned his will to the will of God.

Close to France, Germany, Italy...
Summer rain
Green grass in July in the fields
Fresh air
Blue skies
Clean desk (because I moved the clutter to the floor, heh)
David and the kids did all the dishes after dinner last night, a wonderful thing. I took a shower instead.
There are no bran flakes that I can find in stores here, but they do have "Bio Dinkel Pops" cereal. Try saying that out loud with a straight face. We have not tried this cereal. As it turns out, "dinkel" means the grain spelt. The things I learn every day...And of course "bio" means it's organic.
We are one hour and a quarter's drive from Alsace, France. Never been there before. Sounds worth a visit for sure (once we have our residence permit).
We are also just under one hour from southern Germany, and just over one hour to the edge of the Black Forest (Which contains the rise of the Danube River).
And two and a half hours to Lake Como in Italy. I hadn't quite realized all these wonders before moving here. Many exciting prospects to explore.
But for today, I am participating in a user study at my husband's company, then we go together to the American consulate to get our (non) criminal records check, then later in the evening we have a company party the kids get to come to. An eventful day ahead. Onwards!

German Vocabulary Lesson - Migros Loyalty Card Application
In filling out the Migros loyalty card application yesterday, I had to look up a lot of new vocabulary, some of which I hope will stick with me...maybe better so if I type it here and share it with you:
Antrag - application
Anmeldung - sign-up, registration
Mitgliedschaft - membership
Verzichten - decline, abdicate
Deswegen - that's why
Erhalten - receive
Benötigen - need/want
Noch - still
Beachten - pay attention to / note / heed
Gewünschte - desired
Bevorzugte - preferred
And to finish off:
Einfach - simply
Ablösen - to detach
Anfeuchten - to dampen / to wet
Zukleben - to seal
From the village website, I also learned, with the help of my online German-English dictionary:
Stützmauer - retaining wall (someone wants a permit for one)
Anlässe - events
Abteilung - department
We'll see if I remember any of them tomorrow. I have good hopes for noch, beachten and anmeldung, at least.

One of the Differences Between Migros and Coop
Migros and Coop (pronounced CO-op)are the two main grocery store chains in Switzerland. They are the very same two chains that we shopped at when I was growing up in Geneva, and now I shop at them in Zurich.
Here is a difference that I don't think existed back then...to do with the loyalty cards (which is a newer phenomenon). Of course every time you check out at the store, they ask if you have a loyalty card. At Coop, they say, "Superkarte?" (where the S sounds like a Z). At Migros they ask, "Karte Cumulus?"
Until yesterday, I had just been replying with, "Nein" (no). But then at the Coop I came up with the much more brilliant and descriptive, "Noch nicht...Ich warte" (not yet...I'm waiting for it). To get the card at the Coop, one must get a form at the Kiosk (customer service desk), fill it out and mail it in, and wait about a month. Then presumably one receives the card and can start using it. And no, they don't credit your receipts for any shopping before you receive the card. In the meantime, in exchange for your shopping, they give you miles of little stickers with a shower graphic on them, pretending that you will get airline miles and bathtime gifts with these stickers, if you take the time to stick each one individually onto a little piece of provided paper in rows of five, and bring them in later. However, once you have done this, they inform you that actually if you've stuck 120 stickers on with the help of your kids, and just want to trade them in for the miles, you have to pay 139 Francs to get the 4000 miles. I had understood about the bath products costing money (you have the honor of paying them 20, 25, 50, or 60 Francs if for some reason you want towels and bathrobes and such with a company logo on them), but I had thought the miles were actually free. Nothing is free. I took those shower stickers back so fast...and felt like it was all a royal waste of time and the stickers are worthless. If anyone wants them they can have them.
By contrast, at Migros, you go to the customer service desk, they immediately hand you a plastic card with a bar code on it, they credit you already your purchases from that day, and ask you to fill in the form later and send it in, but in the meantime you can use your new card right away. Instead of deceptive and labor-intensive shower stickers, they give you Migros coins, which you can distribute amongst your kids, who put them into a machine much like a gumball machine, except it emits big marbles! They roll down around the spiral and pop out, and if you're lucky, they give you a cloth bag at the check-out to keep the marbles in! Now there's something free and fun.
Guess which store's loyalty program I am more impressed with? However, I have yet to see what the Migros or Coop card actually does for you, if anything other than that the cashier will no longer scare you with the question of whether you have one every time.

Minor Setbacks
1. The house smells like manure. Some neighbours or other seem to be fertilizing their garden to within an inch of its life.
2. Yesterday I stalled the car in the middle of the street while a red sports car waited behind me. I couldn't get it to start again for a few embarrassing moments.
3. Today we got letters from the Swiss government, out of which I could only understand that we had to do SOMETHING by August 20th. Such an odd feeling, really having no idea what they were trying to tell me. I read the whole thing, word for word, and that's pretty much all I understood of the German legalese.
4. It turns out they want a criminal records check (Strafregisterauszug) on the two of us before they will continue processing our residence permit. David's company and the US Consulate in Zurich told us this would be likely, but the relocation company and all the ex-pat websites disagreed. Well now we know who was right. We actually had an appointment at the consulate but then cancelled it when the town hall did not ask for this piece of evidence upon our newly-arrived registration. Too bad. I have to make another one. Thankfully, all we have to bring is our passports and 33 Swiss Francs each. As far as I know (which is not very far).
5. I tried the 2nd of two bakeries in our village this morning and brought some goodies home for the kids for breakfast - there were only two problems with this. One is that I tried to begin the ordering process in German, but blanked out on anything to say after the opening greeting. I ended up stupidly pointing at a strawberry tartlet, having no recollection of how to say strawberry (Erdbeere). The lady said something I didn't understand, and I just raised my eyebrows, instead of explaining my limited German or something educated like that. It became clear she was naming the strawberry tart (I never did get what it was called), and then she said something else, and we ended up speaking English, which she understood. I could feel the lady behind me watching the interaction, and wished I had just started in English. Oh well. I'm going to be doing this a lot. Feeling foolish and ignorant. But I plan to take some German lessons soon to complement the computer learning I've been doing. There is hope for improvement, says logic, if not my heart. The second "problem" is that I keep looking for a French-style bakery, and haven't found one here yet. I don't know how to describe really what it is I am seeking, but the German culture is just very different from the French side of Switzerland. The pastries and baked goods are different, and not as many, or maybe that's just because I am living in a small village. But then again, the small village in Geneva where I lived had a fantastic bakery. I guess I am looking for that one. 3 hours is a bit far to go for breakfast. But maybe in a closer French-speaking part of CH...for a special treat...memories are powerful.
By the way, if you put the misspelling "eerdbeer" as a German word into the built-in Mac OS German-English translator, it says that in English that would be "more eerdbeer." Then if you try to translate that back into German, it renders it "mehr eerdbeer." This information will come in handy some day, I know it.

Dizzying Library Hours
I was hoping to visit our village library. So I looked up the opening hours. Good thing I didn't just try to stop by:
|Tuesday & Friday
However, during the holidays (whenever those are; perhaps when school is not in session, like now?):
|Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday
|Presumably Closed
I feel a bit dizzy (but speaking of remembering rules and times/days, I did remember to put the garden waste out yesterday for the first time, with the special orange tag which I had to wet and stick together around the bin handle, and the trash today in the special bags at the end of the street - I forgot to bring the yard waste bin in last night, but someone else forgot until this morning too, so I felt better that I wasn't the last to collect it).
Back to books/movies, I have discovered that there is a DVD shop in downtown Zurich that is called ELM (English Language Media) - we had a similar store in Geneva when I was growing up, and we used to rent videos from it. But it's 23 minutes from our house here (or so Google Maps says), so I don't know if we would use that much. I am trying to choose a replacement for Netflix (USA) / Glowria.fr (France) / Amazon.co.uk (UK) DVD Rentals by mail. There are also a couple of companies in Switzerland that specialize in ordering English-language books, so I am trying out one of those for more books for the kids.

First Alpine Hike - Flumserberg
After our first two Saturdays of IKEA overwhelm, we were most excited to turn to other pursuits yesterday. With the house under enough control, we took the opportunity to explore farther afield by driving an hour into the Alps for a mountainous picnic lunch. What fun! What beauty! Cow bells! Goat bells! Mini-golf at altitude, fresh bread & cheese on rocks in a steep meadow surrounded by wildflowers. Enough to make this Swiss Mrs' heart sing with joy.
Along the drive, I spotted license plates from 22 of the 26 Swiss cantons (like states). In the order of their joining the Swiss Confederation, from 1351 to 1815:
ZH Zurich (1351)
BE Berne
LU Lucerne
UR Uri
SZ Schwyz
OW Obwalden (Obwald)
NW Nidwalden (Nidwald)
GL Glarus
ZG Zug
FR Fribourg
SO Solothurn
BS Basel-Stadt (Basel-City)
BL Basel-Land (Basel-Country)
SH Schaffhausen
AR Appenzell Ausserrhoden (Outer Rhodes)
SG St. Gallen (St. Gall)
GR Graubünden (Grisons)
AG Aargau (Argovia)
TG Thurgau (Thurgovia)
TI Ticino
VD Vaud
GE Geneva (1815)
We were only missing
AI Appenzell Innerrhoden (Inner Rhodes) (1513)
VS Valais
NE Neuchâtel
JU Jura (1979 - previously part of Bern)
On the other hand, we were listening to The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, by Mark Twain, downloaded from the Apple Store in audiobook form, so they may have passed by unnoticed.
I was of course especially excited when I saw GE and VD, because those were the ones I saw all the time growing up in Geneva. Vaud is right next to Geneva, along one side of Lake Geneva.
I also saw license plates from eight other countries: Germany (lots), France, Netherlands, Austria, Belgium, Italy, and the Czech Republic. One license plate stumped me: FL (and it was NOT Florida). David suggested Florin (from the Princess Bride). I just looked it up, and it is rather surprisingly not a country that starts with F: Fürstentum Liechtenstein, which means the Principality of Liechtenstein. I was very pleased to learn this, as I am sure I shall see more - Liechtenstein is right next to us here, only 1.5 hours away. It's on our list as soon as we get our proper residence permit here (supposed to stay in-country until then).
Before we got to the hiking spot, we stopped to look around a small, ruined castle from 1249 or so. The Bergruine Gräpplang.
After driving up the mountain from the town of Flums, we took a gondola from Tannenheim partway up the Flumserberg, then an 8-person, wind-shielded chairlift (never seen an 8-seater, never seen one with a windshield), then hiked up a bit. Each of us had our own little knapsack, carrying our own drinks, and the picnic load was shared around as needed. The real hiking came on the way down, through meadows and forest and cow pasture, and along a stream.
The whole hike I kept thinking to myself, "I can't believe we're only one hour from our house! This is unreal! Look at those peaks!" God is very creative...and generous and gracious. We saw a slew of different animals on the drive and hike: cows with very large udders, horses, goats, chickens, rabbit, long-necked geese (like Jemima Puddleduck), birds, dog, cat. We went through a bunch of tunnels and saw several lakes and a ton of paragliders who had jumped off the various peaks to land in the valley below. On the hike we picked wild blueberries and Emily even liked them (she hasn't historically, but couldn't resist trying some cute little ones she had picked fresh off the mountainside herself).
It was an awesome day! We live in an awesome world created by an awesome God!
(can you tell I felt enthusiastic?)

Blessed at "Lift Zug"
This morning we visited a third church here in northern Switzerland, this time in the canton of Zug. We live halfway between the cities of Zurich and Zug, so we can go either direction. David's office is in Zurich, the kids' schools are in Zug, so our centre is not clear. I guess that would be our house.
LIFT = Living in Forever Today, which is a catchy idea...
It is a small church (there were maybe 40-50 people there this morning, including kids), but this is also summertime, with people gone. However, it meets in a very small room on one of the main streets in Zug, right on the lake, and it didn't seem that there were any spare seats, so I'm not sure how it works during the school year... Beautiful flowers adorned a little park on the lakefront across the street.
We really enjoyed the worship in song (mostly songs we knew, with guitars, keyboard, drums, words on the screen), just our style, and the message was full of Jesus and His Love and Life given for us. Emily, of her own accord went upstairs to the kids' class, without us even going with her (she did not go at either of the other two churches, so it was nice to see her feel so comfortable). The view over Lake Zug from upstairs was breathtaking.
Afterwards, we spent a long time chatting and getting to know several families:
- the pastor is from Colorado, and his wife is of Swiss and German descent. The whole family of four have both U.S. and Swiss passports and have lived in Colorado. Talk about a connection for us! We love Colorado. The daughter in this family is 11 and she welcomed Emily like an old friend. Emily is really hoping to go back again next week. "Would anyone mind?" as she put it surreptitiously.
- the worship leader (this week anyway) and his wife are from London (so that was another connection for us)
- another guitar player and his wife are from South Africa (a good friend and prayer partner of mine in the UK was South African - it was nice to hear the accent again)
- the couple who were sitting in front of us are from Canada, and BOTH teach at Emily's new school!!! That was fantastic to hear. Not only that - the gentleman teaches Emily's Grade!!!!!! She has a quarter chance of having him, since there are 4 5th grades next year.
- another couple we met are from the U.S. but lived in two other countries before landing here, the most recent being England, just like us. They have two boys and a girl - the eldest boy is about Jason's height and plays guitar and piano (I can imagine Jason playing drums with him...), and the next is Emily's age and will be in her grade at her new school as well (but not with the teacher we met) - so now she has 50/50 chance of being in a class with someone she's already met! Wow. The grace of God is so deep and lavish.
We found out that the pastor's wife knows the science teacher at Jason's school, and that she is a Christian! Very exciting to hear as well. What wonderful connections this morning. Thank You! Thank You!
After the chatting tapered, we went out for a local pizza lunch with the South Africans, the Canadians, and the American family with the two older boys (most of the kids at this church are on the younger side - a huge number of strollers parked in the hallway...). More good chat time - all the adults at one long table, all the kids at another, outside in the perfect temperature on a lovely day.
So is this where You want us, Lord? Thank You in any case for a very blessed morning. Please provide friends for Jason and bring some more God-seeking teenagers to this church if You are planting us here!

License, German-English Translation, Fruit, Junkmail, Power, Sun
I think the Zurich DMV used Google Translate for their email to me. Here are some excerpts:
...The visual test you can finish with every optician(glasses business)
...They must wait, to you the foreign identity card have
...The American leader's drive card we need for the paraphrase. You get back this after the occurred paraphrase (approx. one week). Nevertheless, in the interim you may go in Switzerland.
Mit freundlichen Grüssen

Yesterday I hung our wedding vows by our bed - David's to me on his side, and mine to him on my side. This means we are truly home once again. I also hung the iris painting that my mom gave to us as a housewarming present three houses/countries ago. It is in the dining room, beautiful! And David's mom's special and lovely river painting is hanging in Jason's room - she painted it for him.
And I organized all the extra toiletries...what a mess that was. Our bathroom looks a whole lot better.
Also the kids and I got to have lunch with David at work for the first time, and see where he sits. FUN office... (not mentioning on the blog the name of where he works, but it's somewhere really fun :-) ).
* * *
We've been delighting in God's fresh summer peaches (so ripe the skin just peels right off with my fingers), nectarines, and blueberries...yum! This morning I baked my first banana bread in this house. The kids liked it a lot.
* * *
In reading Psalm 89:13, I came across an unusual verb: "endue:"
Provide with a talent, ability, power, etc. (godonthe.net)
To take on, to take the form of... To clothe; to endow or invest (with a thing). (wiktionary)
Endow, indue, gift, empower, invest, give qualities or abilities to (wordnet.princeton.edu
So anyway, God is endued with power. All of it.
Earlier this week I was clueless as to where I might find a shower curtain rod around here (that was not 45 minutes away of yucky city/highway driving at Ikea). I sort of kind of asked God for help (didn't feel it was important enough? Have other matters I'd rather He work on? Didn't think He knew? Didn't think He cared that much? Ha!), having looked in the phone books and found that no help with my limited German (what would you look under?), and having tried Google maps business locating...again I don't think I put in the right words.
I left the house for some other errands, hoping I would just see someplace likely on the way...but stopped at the mailbox to check if there was anything in there. For the first time since we moved in two weeks ago, there was some "junkmail" in the bottom half of the mailbox. Some flyers from stores. Hmmm, thought I. Leafing through, three of the stores looked like likely candidates for my search! So I went back inside and looked them up online. The closest one was 20 minutes away through absolutely stunning countryside. Hills, forests, lush verdant fields, Christmas tree farm, cornfields, distant horizons...Anyway, I got to a Co-op "Bau + Hobby" which turned out to be Home Depot meets Office Depot meets Michael's Arts & Crafts meets Garden Center meets Kitchen Store meets Outdoor Store. And upstairs, a full-blown Co-op grocery store and attached mall. I had a great time exploring, got the shower curtains and rods and several other things we needed, and had to leave to come home before I was done with the adventure. I will have to go back and take David too sometime. Looked like a nice town to visit for other reasons too (Affoltern am Albis).
So anyway, it wasn't junkmail, it was God-mail, I guess. Thanks!
* * *
The sun has returned as of yesterday, and we're supposed to have real summer temperatures here all next week. Nice. We may take our first trip into the mountains this Saturday for a hike. I hope we see lots of wildflowers, especially centaurea montana...

Starting to Look Into the Swiss Driver's License
Here is a helpful (?) translation from the German of what happens to our original driver's license when we swap it for a Swiss one:
6th ERFOLGTER BY DEFINITION
6.1. What happens with the foreign driving licence after euphemism?
Lead passes from EU / EFTA member states are sent to the exhibitors State returned. Lead passes from non-EU
EFTA states will be marked "Not valid in Switzerland" and will be the designated candidates in return. Leadership
rerausweise of people with permits foreigners F, N or S will be sent to the competent authority.
For those of you who understand German, here's the original:
6.1. Was passiert mit dem ausländischen Führerausweis nach erfolgter Umschreibung?
Führerausweise aus EU-/EFTA-Staaten werden an den Ausstellerstaat zurückgesandt. Führerausweise aus Nicht EU-
/EFTA-Staaten erhalten den Vermerk "Not valid in Switzerland" und werden dem/der Bewerber/in zurückgegeben. Füh-
rerausweise von Personen mit Ausländer-Bewilligungen F, N oder S werden an die zuständige Behörde weitergeleitet.
Do you see what I am dealing with, with the "help" of Google Translate? Oh boy. I generally get the gist of what it is trying to say, but often I have to take individual words and stick them into my favorite online German-English dictionary (sometimes requiring splitting them into the parts of the compound words the German language so strongly embraces).
I think the mysterious
"NACH ERFOLGTER UMSCHREIBUNG" means something like "After the Procedure has Taken Place."
What is translated as "euphemism" really means something like "the procedure" I think.
And of course "Lead passes" are simply driver's licenses. Automatic translation is so hopeless because so much is determined by context. I'm sure faithful reader Randall who lived in Germany, and is married to a wonderful German lady, will enlighten us about this stuff.
What's awesome is that unlike the UK, where we had to pass a theory test AND a road test (which I failed the first time and passed the second time), here in lovely Switzerland we can exchange either our U.S. OR our U.K. license for a Swiss one, and our only test will be an EYE test - that kind I can handle! Especially after my 2004 lasik surgery... (thanks again, my dear husband David for that incredible birthday present!).
So now we have to fill out two forms in German, find out where to get the eye test, get one (D too), and bring our passport, residence permit, foreign license, photos, forms and ourselves to the appropriate office (only 16 minutes away, hurray! It was 45 minutes in the UK). We also have to decide which license to exchange. It looks like, from the paragraph I quoted above, we would not get our UK licenses back, whereas our U.S. licenses they would deface slightly and give back. Hmmm. Probably our UK licenses are no longer valid anyway since we don't live there anymore? Not sure about that. We sure went through a lot of trouble to get those!

July 22nd High of 60
Jeans and sweatshirt today. High of 60 F (16 C, low of 53/12).
The postman really does ring twice here, by the way. (That was a non sequitur, and sounds like a nasty book from the summary I just found.)
Made a Granny Smith apple tart last night with Emily (she did at least half the work). Glad to note that in Switzerland the prepared pie crust dough is once again round. In England it was rectangular, which meant a lot of trimming and wasted dough if I was making a round pie (like all my pies). In France it was round I believe, like in the U.S.
Remember yesterday I wrote about ordering salmon at the fish counter in the grocery store? You may be amused to know that the word for salmon here is "lachs" (it sounds similar to "lax") - as in bagels and lox (only it's not smoked unless you have the word Räucher before it (as in "Rauchen verboten" - no smoking!).
Here you have
a) the hibiscus tree as viewed from our bedroom window
b) an example of beflowered balconies very common in Switzerland (usually a lot of geraniums)
c) a forested streamside path we can take to walk from our house to our village, e.g. to the bakery
d) a sleeping swan by the lake in downtown Zürich (we explored a little after trying a downtown church on Sunday)

In June 1778 the British government's newly created Carlisle Peace Commission travelled to Philadelphia in an attempt to negotiate peace with the Second Continental Congress. The commission offered to meet all of the former colonies' demands, including repealing taxes and the 'Intolerable Acts' of 1774, but refused to accede on the matter of independence. The Congress, boosted by France's declaration of support for American independence, rejected the offer.

Think ketchup, and hamburgers and french fries immediately come to mind. And Collinsville.
The Brooks Catsup bottle-inspired water tower on the edge of the city is iconic roadside art from 1949 that has caught the fancy of people from around the world. The bottle even has a fan club and a festival.
But now the bottle is up for sale along with a warehouse, its future uncertain. Thoughts are turning to how to protect it, maybe buy it.
This is definitely a landmark worth securing. But people should not expect the government to fund it. Local and state governments already have their plates full. And efforts to buy the catsup bottle should be a privately funded, just as it was in the mid-1990s when groups and individuals raised $77,000 to paint and preserve it.
Renovation and ongoing care of the Veterans' Fountain in downtown Belleville is an example of private effort; upgrading the turf at the Belleville High School District 201 athletic fields is another.
Maybe the ketchup bottle is a big enough project that a public-private partnership might be considered, but first the private sector has to develop a plan for the tower then lead the way.

VIDEO: Japanese pensioners get levitating chair
Japanese pensioners are set to get levitating chairs that work like hovercrafts, suspending the occupant on a cushion of air and allowing them to zoom around with none of that pesky friction messing around with things.
The device has been created by researchers at Kobe Gakuin University, who mounted air compressors to the bottom of a chair. It doesn't work on rugs yet, or on tatami mats, but on a hard surface you're fine. As a result, it's just a prototype for now - though the researchers are looking for funding so it's entirely possible that a more advanced version could follow.
Another version of the device sees the air boosters strapped to a tatami mat that you sit directly on, like a flying carpet. Would you trust either with your life? Let us know in the comments.

Of the nine years that Vidya Balan has been a part of the Hindi film industry, she has spent the better part delivering stellar performances in films such as Paa, Ishqiya, The Dirty Picture and Kahaani. During awards seasons, she has been a regular on stage, accepting the top honours. This year was proving to be a dry season for the actor, with the tepid Ghanchakkar as her only release in 2013. That changed when Balan was recently awarded the Padma Shri.
She calls it a "great honour at such a young age". The 36-year-old attributes the honour to the "kind of cinema that is being made these days". "All these honours wouldn't have come my way had the characters I played not been written," says Balan, who is now awaiting the release of her next, Shaadi Ke Side Effects, on February 28.
Looking back at her journey, Balan says she is glad that, despite the ups and downs in her career, she never had to go out in search of roles, that interesting author-backed roles have always fallen into her lap. Of these, Parineeta, Ishqiya and Paa are special to her. "Parineeta, because it was my first Hindi film and it won me the industry's acceptance," she says.
Following the acclaim she won for her debut, came criticism for her attempt at the "Western look" in Heyy Baby and Kismet Konnection, which Ishqiya helped her tide over. "I had started to wonder if the industry was the right place for me but working in Ishqiya reinstilled my faith," she adds. The response for her poignant performance as a mother of a child with disability in Paa sealed her position further, making her comfortable in her own skin. "It's been a fulfilling life," she says.
Life has come full circle for Balan. In Shaadi Ke Side Effects, she will, once again, be seen sporting dresses. Except that, this time, she exudes confidence. The look is for the character of a contemporary, urban and independent married woman, whose life takes a turn when she becomes pregnant.
While, at the outset, it may seem that for the role, she must have simply borrowed from her characters in Ghanchakkar and Kahaani (where she plays a married woman and an expectant mother, respectively), Balan says it required her to approach it from a fresh perspective. "Trisha is an independent, working woman in a two-income household. She and her husband are enjoying their lives when she gets pregnant and the situation seems to spiral out of control as the couple attempts to hold it all together, including their relationship," says Balan.
For Shaadi Ke Side Effects, she was not tempted to borrow from her real life and experiences of her married life with husband Siddharth Roy Kapur. Instead, she relied on the basic man-woman instinct. The …continued »

Covering diverse topics such as improving workflow and managing CSS styles, Dreamweaver CS3 Beyond the Basics is a hands-on course that teaches users how to move beyond standard, static websites. Instructor James Williamson explores how to increase productivity, interactivity, and accessibility with Dreamweaver. He also discusses how to extend the application's capabilities with XML and XSL. Exercise files accompany the tutorials.
Now that we have created our XSL transfer page we are going to perform a client-side XSL transformation. Now to do that we will need to actually link this XSL template to one or more XML files. So even though we described it by using one XML file, if we have a series of XML files that are using the same tags, then we can simply link that XSL transfer sheet to each one of those files. So let's open up the XML file that we created earlier and we will use our transfer sheet on it. I am just going to roll up until I see my Files panel. So we need to open up the upcoming.xml file that we created earlier. So let's double-click on that to open it up and there is our XML file that we created earlier in our exercises.
To attach our XSL transfer sheet, Dreamweaver gives us a command. So if you are looking for this in the Insert menu or in one of the panels you are going to have a hard time finding it. So you want to go up to the menu and go to Commands at the very bottom. Every time you have an XML file open you are going to see this option Attach an XSLT Stylesheet. So we will go ahead and click Attach an XSLT Stylesheet. I am going to hit Browse and this is a lot like attaching a CSS Style Sheet, you can actually draw a lot of correlation between XSL and CSS. CSS was created to describe the presentation of XHTML and HTML, whereas XSL was created to help the transformation of XML.
So we will choose the upcoming shows XSL file that we created, so you want to browse into the XML folder, find upcomingShows.xsl and you want to click Choose, click OK and it doesn't look like a whole lot has changed. But if you look at the very top of the code on line number 2, we have a brand new tag there and it says xml-stylesheet and it gives an href attribute that points to that. Notice that it's document relative and then describes it as being an XSL sheet. So let's save that and now if we preview this in our browser we can see that it's going ahead and applying the transformation inside the browser itself. So it's going from XML to our formatted XHTML here on the browser side. So that's a client side transformation and that seems pretty easy to do. It didn't take very long to do.
So what are the pros and cons to do in this? Well, we have some limitations when dealing with client side transfers. First they only work on XML files that we control. So we can only do this on local XML files we can't do it on remote feeds and if you are trying to style an RSS feed you are not going to be able to use client side transformation. The other limitation is it only really works in modern browsers and that would be the latest versions of most DOM- Compliant standard browsers. Older versions of Netscape, older versions of Internet Explorer, this is not going to work inside of them. So we have a limitation there as well. So in next series of exercises will be to look at an alternative which is to do server-side transformation, along the way we are going to learn how to style an RSS Feed.

In the early days of the 21st century, Gretha Rose, the president of Cellar Door Productions, approached animator Sean Scott and proposed a grand undertaking. She intended to produce a series of animated shorts and wanted him to develop it, based on a simple idea: Creativity.
This concept appealed to Mr. Scott, and he set about coming up with just such a show.
The result was Doodlez. Its pilot episode, Genesis, was written and animated entirely by Mr. Scott himself, and became the basis for all of the episodes which followed.
The show was picked up by TeleTOON, and Trapeze Animation Studios was brought on as a partner to produce and animate the series. Doodlez' first season produced in 2002 was made up of 11 2-minute episodes, all written and directed by Sean Scott.
These eleven episodes were also aired as a half-hour special, which subsequently won the 2003 Gemini Award for Best Animated Program or Series.
The show was then picked up for a second season and an additional 39 2-minute episodes were produced. Though Mr. Scott still contributed scripts and storyboards, the second season was helmed by director D. Campbell MacKinlay, who had been a lead animator with Trapeze on the original run of the show. The second series was a co-production between Cellar Door Productions and Trapeze Animation Studios.
The second season won the 2004 Gemini Award for Best Animated Program or Series.
In 2007, the Trapeze team began production on a new series of Doodlez shorts, to be distributed exclusively on the internet, and the new website you see here, home to all things Doodlez. Most importantly, work has commenced on an exciting new half-hour Doodlez series, the next step in bringing Dood to the clamoring masses.
Meanwhile, the first 50 shorts are now broadcast in more than 80 countries around the globe, where they are airing in constant rotation.

FORT WALTON BEACH — A 42-year-old man was critically injured when he was hit by a pickup truck while walking down Carmel Drive shortly after 8 a.m. Monday.
Jeffrey Clinton Bradley, who lives in Fort Walton Beach, was walking east on the south shoulder of the road when the eastbound truck drifted off the road and struck him from behind, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
Bradley was rushed to Fort Walton Beach Medical Center where he was in critical but stable condition shortly after the wreck, said Battalion Chief Robert Hall with the Ocean City-Wright Fire Department. Emergency responders had called for a medical helicopter to fly him to a hospital in Pensacola, but the helicopter was delayed.
Matthew Scott Leahey, a 27-year-old also from Fort Walton Beach, was driving the truck.
The FHP was still investigating the incident later Monday. No charges had been filed.

Adoption may be an option that you are seriously considering. Or you may just be wondering what adoption is like. Or, you may feel that you could never choose adoption.
Whatever your thoughts, it is always good to have information about all of your choices (including Adoption, Abortion, and Parenting) before you make a final decision.
Adoption might be a good choice for you and your baby. When you consider making an adoption plan for your child, that doesn't mean you don't love your baby. It also doesn't mean that you are taking the easy way out.
What it does mean is that you are thinking about how to best meet needs: yours and your baby's, today and well into the future.
Adoption today may not be what you think. Openness has changed adoption.
Today, adoption is not about severing relationships, it's about changing them. While it's true that with adoption, your parental rights and responsibilities are given to another set of parents, that doesn't end your ability to have a relationship with your child. Open adoption involves an ongoing, dynamic relationship between you, the adoptive parents, and your child.
There are different types of openness to meet different needs and levels of comfort. You owe it to yourself and your baby to at least get some information about the options available in adoption, so that whatever you choose, your decision is one that you have thought through and is based on facts.
There is no easy solution to an unplanned pregnancy. Each choice is hard and has its own difficulties. You can empower yourself by getting as much information as you can get about your options. Giving yourself time to consider carefully and weigh each option will help you make the right decision for you and your baby.
