I'm traveling Saturday.
I'm going to be driving, and then listening to jazz, then hitting the hotel, then driving home.
Packing should be easy. I really won't need any gadgets.
I'll have my phone, which gives me email and the Web. I'll need the charger. But really, that's it.
Although right there in the drawer today was the GPS, so I plugged that in to charge it, just in case I change my mind.
And really, how much room would my tablet take up?
Well, and I'm not counting the iPod, because what if I want some music for the drive?
But other than that, I don't think I'll need any gadgets at all.

In August 228 people - including 124 minors – lost their homes in a demolition spree in the West Bank by Israeli authorities. Most demolitions were carried out in small shepherding communities which face the constant threat of expulsion from Area C. Under the guise of enforcing construction laws, Israel pursues a policy to minimize Palestinian presence in Area C by making life there unbearable. This policy, systematically implemented for years, constitutes the forcible transfer of protected persons inside an occupied territory, be it directly – through the demolition of homes – or indirectly, by creating an intolerable reality.
On seven different occasions in June, during the fast of Ramadan, the military displaced dozens of Palestinian families in the Jordan Valley for hours on end, for military exercises, sometimes leaving pastures and crops trampled and scorched. Temporary displacements have become routine for many Jordan Valley communities, and they are not random. Knesset Subcommittee on the Judea and Samaria Area transcripts published in Israeli daily Haaretz reveal that one object of the training in the Jordan Valley is forcing out local Palestinians. 'Aref Daraghmeh, a Jordan Valley resident and B'Tselem field researcher, documented how this reality impacts the displaced families.
Today, 20 Aug. 2015, the Israeli authorities left 19 persons, including 10 minors, in conditions of extreme heat without any solution. This is the third time this week the authorities have demolished homes and income generating structures in area C. The wave of demolitions left dozens of people homeless in the extreme August heat. Since 5 Aug. 2015, the Civil Administration has demolished 34 residential buildings and 31 other structures in Palestinian communities in the Jordan Valley, in the vicinity of Ma'ale Adumim, and in the southern Hebron hills. A total of 167 people have lost their homes in these actions, including 101 minors.
Yesterday, 19 Aug. 2015, the Supreme Court suspended 'Alan's administrative detention order due to his medical condition. If it is found that the neurological damage is irreversible, the order will be voided. 'Alan, 30, has been in administrative detention for over nine months and on hunger strike for two to protest the detention which denies his freedom without due process. Administrative detention is detention without trial: 'Alan has not been indicted; has received no explanation for his imprisonment; and cannot even attempt to prove his innocence. On Friday he lost consciousness. On Tue. he regained it but his life still hangs in the balance. B'Tselem urges Israeli authorities to release 'Alan immediately.
This morning the Civil Administration demolished 17 home and 7 structures for livestock in the village of Fasayil in the Jordan Valley, leaving 48 people, 31 of them minors homeless. Israel prevents Palestinians in the community from establishing permanent homes and connecting them to water and electricity infrastructures, thereby leaving them exposed to harsh weather conditions. Since 5 Aug. 2015, the Civil Administration has demolished 31 residential buildings and 26 other structures in Palestinian communities in area C. A total of 167 people have lost their homes in these actions, including 101 minors.
This morning, around 6 A.M., the Civil Administration and military demolished the homes of four families numbering 32 people, of them 21 minors at the a-Sa'idi community, near a-Za'ayem. The forces then moved to the Abu-Falah community, in the Khan al-Ahmar area, and demolished a residential shack housing two people and a structure used to house guests. Later the authorities demolished 12 structures in the adjacent Bir al-Maksub and Wadi Shneisel communities, nine of them residential homes. Authorities leave the residents and herds with no shelter in harsh weather conditions.
This morning, 11 Aug. 2015, Civil Administration and military forces demolished a family home under construction and two livestock pens in the Palestinian community of Khirbet Humsah in the northern Jordan Valley. They continued to the community of al-'Ajaj, where they demolished the homes of two families numbering 12 people, including 6 minors, and two livestock pens. They then demolished a fodder storage structure in the village of a-Zubeidat.
On the night of 22 July 2015 soldiers entered 19 homes in the Palestinian village of Qusrah, the West Bank and took down the occupants' details. B'Tselem does not know of any arrests or summons for interrogation made. In response to B'Tselem's query about similar incidents, the IDF Spokesperson said they were an "operational activity to map houses", "in accordance with official orders", and meant to "minimize disturbance to routine life in the area". B'Tselem then requested a copy of the orders and an explanation of the purpose of this unjustified disruption of people's lives by the military.
More than two and a half years ago, soldiers killed sixteen-year-old Samir 'Awad. A year and two months later, his father petitioned the High Court of Justice (HCJ) together with B'Tselem, demanding the Military Advocate General (MAG) reach a decision whether to take action against the soldiers involved or close the case. The State Attorney's Office continues the foot-dragging in this case, repeatedly ignoring interim court decisions.
The uproar over the rare demolition of structures in the settlement of Beit El has died down, and the Civil Administration (CA) resumed its routine work of demolishing structures in Palestinian communities. On Wednesday, 5 August 2015, CA personnel came with a military escort to demolish structures in three Palestinian communities in the Jordan Valley: In al-'Aqabah they demolished the home of a five-person family and five structures used for storage and livestock; in 'Ein al-Meyteh they demolished three residential tents and four structures used for raising livestock; in Khirbet Yarza they demolished a livestock pen.
Israel's administrative detention of extreme right-wing activist Mordechai Mayer and planned administrative detention of two other such activists, reportedly authorized by the Attorney General, is unacceptable. Recent calls to amend the law on this matter and use draconian measures such as administrative detention and illegal interrogation methods convey the impression that Israel's law enforcement system indeed wishes to prevent settlers from harming Palestinians. However, past experience shows that these steps are meant primarily to create a false show of firm action in order to decrease public criticism, in this case concerning the killing of Palestinian baby 'Ali Dawabsheh by arson in the West Bank village of Duma.
The killing of a one and a half year old infant, 'Ali Sa'ed Dawabshe, and the serious injury of his mother Riham and toddler brother 'Ahmed, after a suspected arson attack by Israeli civilians burned their home, was only a matter of time. This, due to the authorities' policy to avoid enforcing the law on Israelis who harm Palestinians and their property. This policy creates impunity for hate crimes, and encourages assailants to continue, leading to this morning's horrific result.
On Wed. (29 July) the Knesset voted in favor of a bill permitting to force-feed hunger strikers in cases deemed medically life-threatening. Designed to break the spirit and body of prisoners and administrative detainees who are protesting non-violently, the law tramples the Patients' Rights Act and human dignity. The Israeli Medical Association said it would petition the HCJ against the law and instruct doctors not to implement it. The bill passed is an awful moral blot. The very thought of its implementation is horrifying. Support for such as bill by the majority of the coalition is a grim, yet accurate, expression of the legislators' willingness to trample human rights.
The present struggle of Susiya's residents is the latest chapter in a saga of decades of dispossession. These are the facts.
On 22 Jul. 2015 the HCJ okayed deportation of Nadia Abu al-Jamal and her 3 children from their E. J'alem home as punishment for an attack her husband perpetrated. The justices denied the petition filed by NGO HaMoked: Center for the Defence of the Individual on behalf of Abu al-Jamal. Deportation would not have been possible had not successive Israeli governments, with the approval of the HCJ, created an impossible reality in Jerusalem that forced Abu al-Jamal to live as a stranger in her husband's home, in a spot not far from her childhood home. The two homes had been a part of the same community until Israel occupied the area and split it up.
B'Tselem's Board and staff have recently visited Kh. Susiya to meet with its residents, including our field researcher in the South Hebron Hills, Nasser Nawaj'ah. Last Friday hundreds of activists also came there to show solidarity. Now that the HCJ enabled demolition even prior to the hearing scheduled for the residents' petition, the Civil Administration might demolish the village homes at any time, leaving residents with no shelter in harsh desert conditions. This mode of operation allows Israeli authorities to take over lands and drive out communities from Area C. Photos by Sharon Azran and Helen Yanovsky.
In Sep. 2014 Israel's National Planning and Construction Committee appeals sub-committee said plans for the Mt. Scopus Slopes National Park could not be approved without considering the needs of the neighborhoods whose development would be curtailed by the park, and returned it to the District Committee for reconsideration. In July 2015, with a new decision still pending, the Jerusalem Municipality posted "Landscaping Orders for a Vacant Lot" – normally used for small public gardens – for the 70 hectares slated for the park, aiming to block any possible development in the neighborhoods.
In a letter sent this morning to the Civil Administration, representatives of the village of Susiya demanded that the authorities freeze all the demolitions planned over the coming days in the village. The letter was sent after it emerged that the scale of destruction the state seeks to sow in Susiya is much greater than was previously thought, and includes almost half the structures in the village. If the structures are demolished, the residents will have no way to survive in the area in conditions of extreme heat and cold. Accordingly, the action effectively constitutes the expulsion of the residents from their land.
On 21 May 2015, Yihya al-'Amudi, 10, lost his eye after being hit by a black sponge round fired at him by an Israeli Border Police officer. This ammunition, used by the police since last year, does not cause severe injury if used according to regulations. However, ACRI has documented numerous instances in which sponge rounds were fired contrary to regulations, resulting in injuries to individuals not involved in clashes and killing one 15-year-old. Lack of accountability for wrongful firing makes the next lethal incident only a matter of time.
In response to the publication in Israeli daily Ha'aretz that Israel would be entering into a dialogue with the prosecutor at the International Criminal Court in the Hague (ICC) in order to clarify the state's position, B'Tselem states: Israel's contention that the ICC has no jurisdiction over alleged breaches of the laws of war, partly because "the Israeli judicial system is independent and can handle complaints on the matter of alleged war crimes" is incorrect. Past experience shows that the opposite is true and that Israeli authorities have demonstrated that they are incapable of investigating allegations of Israeli breaches of humanitarian law in the Gaza Strip.

Possible improvement points:
1. Maybe the door and/or window could be sloped, just like the wall.
Good points:
1. I really like the wall, don't think I've seen that before (at least not in this way).
2. Original sword-rack.
3. Nice hanging bed, good plan to have one of those on a ship.
Posted 31 March 2009 - 05:47 PM
1.I really like the bed, its very creative.
2.The bookshelf is nice.
3.Your skeleton weapon rack looks great.
1. Maybe you could tile the wall. That way it matches the floor.
2.I agree with the others , a slanted door that matches the walls would be great.
Good Job and Good Luck.

It's a nice "feel-good" story with the father and son orc, plus it has some nice interior designs. The walls are very interesting with the raising effect, and I think that turned out very well.
Your little bookshelf adds some great color. That little orc longboat is simply superb. I love how it's similar to the usual model ship design but with a few "orcish" twists.
Improvement Ideas:
1) I agree with ISC that it would better if the window was a bit further back, so it would be more on the same level as the door is. The way it is now I don't think you can even see out of it.
2) The black lantern on the bottom right blends in a bit too much with the floor. Perhaps having it on the wall somewhere would be best.
Overall, excellent work with you entry! The little fun details like the bed make it enjoyable to look at.
Best of luck to you!

I also briefly considered tiling the wall but I like the texture that the studs create. makes it feel rougher and more lived in.
Thanks for the words of encouragement!

I really like how you made the wall that's very original !

Starting Questions
Hi everyone,
I'm just starting out with the idea of trying to crochet. I don't know where to start or what. I do have a pattern I'd LOVE to finish before next week (I'm guessing that's impossible) its a pattern for a crochet witch's hat.
Where's a good starting place?
Lion has a Learn to crochet section on its site that will get you going on the basic stitches. I think a site called crochetvilla has videos and you'll probably find something on youtube as well.
I have some beginner crochet videos on my website that might help you get started. Click into this link: http://www.hookedonneedles.com/2008/...d-crochet.html and then look at the list for crochet videos. Depending how fast you learn, you may be able to get that hat done by next week. Give it a try! Good luck!
Cute pattern. Here are some more beginner videos from Crochetville.
I like the Curtzy Crochet hook tutorials by Mikey from The Crochet Crowd.

Overlooking a marina, this impressive lakeside period house makes a fine hotel, and the scale of the Victorian architecture and the style of furnishings and decor lean very much towards the luxurious in both public areas and accommodation.
Immaculately maintained and regularly refurbished, it has an impressive conference and banqueting area with its own separate entrance, which has been discreetly added to the side and rear of the original building and, despite its large size and more contemporary approach, in no way detracts from the appeal of the old house.
Spacious bedrooms range from interconnecting family rooms to deluxe doubles and romantic suites with canopied four-poster beds, and front rooms have stunning views.
The hotel's air conditioned cruiser, Lady of the Lake, offers catering and bar facilities for up to 56 for tours, corporate events, conferences and parties.
Conference/banqueting (400/350). Leisure centre, indoor swimming pool; beauty salon. Children under 3 free in parents' room (cots available). No pets.
Rooms 81 (all en-suite, 2 suites, 12 junior suites, 3 single) B&B about £70pps, single £90. Special breaks offered.
The Belleek Restaurant:
The restaurant is beautifully appointed (even more so since a recent refurb) and well positioned to make the most of the lovely view. The hotel has always had a well earned reputation for its kitchen, but things have moved up a few gears since the arrival Rory Carville as Head Chef in 2015.
A relatively local man - he is from Castleblayney, Co Monaghan - this talented chef arrived via a number of famous Dublin restaurants, most recently the former Locks Brasserie on the Grand Canal, where he was Head Chef, and Cleaver East at the Clarence Hotel, which he opened with Oliver Dunne, of Bon Appetit in Malahide.
All of this is reflected in sophisticated menus sporting a few recherché details that provide entertaining conversation pieces - anyone for oyster leaf? (In case you're wondering, it contributes a special briney taste to dishes such as a wonderful starter of Wet Cured Atlantic Salmon with fennel & caper sprout cream, quail egg, pickled cucumber, caper flower, and said oyster leaf.)
Esoteric ingredients aside, menus express the admirable philosophy "True to the region, true to the season", and the detailed descriptions translate into beautiful, creative dishes that are a joy to look at but most memorable for real flavour that can sometimes pack quite a punch.
A meal here begins in traditional fine dining style with an amuse-bouche (a little je ne sais quoi of salmon and avocado foam, perhaps) and there are special signature dishes too. These may include a stunning starter of Goat Curd & Buttermilk Mousse with young vegetables, beetroot bavarois, and orange fluid gel - with delicate yet distinctive tastes and wonderful presentation it is a must-try summer dish, if it is on, and as pretty as a picture (take a look at the image on their website).
Fish is a particular strength, with Pan Fried Hake Lardo di Colonnata, with wild artichoke, monk's beard (another talking point!), tempura oyster, and bordelaise sauce also a dish to seek out - or its variations, as it may appear on several menus using different fish. The lardo di colonnata is paper thin on the hake which is cooked to perfection, with lovely skin and not over-seasoned.
But meat lovers will also be very happy with a dish such as the excellent John Stone Dry Aged Beef Fillet with beef cheek & summer truffle pithivier, mushroom duxelle, parsley puree, truffle aioli (£5 supplement on the dinner menu). Bearing in mind that the pithivier (which looks and tastes lovely) is quite substantial alongside the steak, this is a dish for meat lovers with big appetites.
A lovely selection of desserts might include an exquisitely creamy pannacotta with a fruity topping (raspberry, in season, perhaps) and a dark chocolate fondant with cherry ganache ('the full chocolate experience'), and yellowman ice cream giving a summery nod to a unique Co Antrim speciality.
Good teamwork between pleasant, experienced staff and well trained younger people should provide smooth, well paced service to back up the good work done in the kitchen, making for a memorable experience in this lovely venue.
The Enniskillen area can boast several ambitious kitchens and there is no doubt that the Manor House must be giving them a run for their money - and the ace up its sleeve is the wonderful setting.
Service from a well-trained team is engaged and, like the food, in tune with the grand surroundings, making this a good choice for a special evening out.

Execute A Program From A C / C++ ProgramMay 22, 2015 – 5:21 pm
To start an external program from a C / C++ program, I used the following code.
GetStartupInfo( &start_info ); // You must fill in this structure ret = CreateProcess( NULL, // specify the executable program (LPSTR)buffer, // the command line arguments NULL, NULL, FALSE, NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS | CREATE_NO_WINDOW, NULL, NULL, &start_info, &process_info); // Successfully created the process. Wait for it to finish. WaitForSingleObject( process_info.hProcess, INFINITE ); // Get the exit code. result = GetExitCodeProcess(process_info.hProcess, &exitCode); // Close the handles. CloseHandle( process_info.hProcess ); CloseHandle( process_info.hThread );
The code starts an external program and waits, until this program has finished before processing the next lines of code.
After using this code for a couple of years now, I found a shorter version today …
ret = system((char *)buffer);
I found only one limitation. It will print any of your fprint statements to the Domino console; using CREATE_NO_WINDOW with CreateProcess, you can suppress the output.

Similar to my other request: do you know if any plugins would mix with your custom post type to show:
- A list of 5 similar FAQ titles (with links to their respective pages), based on tags (Yet another related FAQ mix?)
- FAQ titles, ordered by popularity (pageviews?).
- FAQ titles, ordered by vote
Of course, there must be some kind of voting mechanism as well, or maybe hook into an existing "very helpful, helpful, not at all" voting plugin?
Thanks for considering it!

On I ordered a PCM from Chris, ext. 5395 on 2-1-13. I was told that I would receive the part in 5 or 6 working days. My credit card has been charged $510 and after 10 business days I still do not have my PCM.
The latest communication from Chris on 2-14 was a voice mail from Chris telling me that this part has been shipped overnight. Chris did not provide me any details on the shipping, not the shipping company or a tracking number. If Chris had been accurate, the part should have arrived on 2-15. It is now 2-16 and still no part. It appears that you are not open on Saturday however the on hold greeting does not indicate this and after being on hold and listening to the someone will be with you message for 45 minutes, I finally
gave up.
There are several red flags that make me believe that dealing with your company was a costly mistake.
1. No online confirmation of my order
2. No email confirmation of my order
3. No email address on your web page that can be used to contact you, therefor I am sending this by express mail
4. All communications are the result of me calling Chris, not him keeping me informed
5. Missed promises and inaccurate information provided by Chris
6. Multiple complains about your company online:
a. http://www.ripoffreport.com/aes-modules-automoti/auto-parts/aes-modules-automotive-electro-4818a.htm

d. http://www.ripoffreport.com/aes-modules-automoti/auto-parts/aes-modules-automotive-electro-4818a.htm (this one mentions Chris by name)
e. There are more, but you get the picture
If I ever get my PCM I ordered and paid for, I now also doubt the quality of what I will receive.
I suspect that none of this will surprise you. If you truly interested in providing the service I paid for, a Manger (not Chris) should call me at xxx-xxx-xxxx.

REDWOOD SHORES, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 07/19/12 -- Oracle (NASDAQ: ORCL)
News Facts
- Oracle today announced Oracle Privileged Account Manager to help customers efficiently comply with regulatory requirements, secure critical applications and sensitive data, and lower operational costs.
- The latest addition to Oracle Identity Management 11g Release 2, a key component of Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g, Oracle Privileged Account Manager provides customers with the ability to easily and safely manage passwords for shared or administrative accounts associated with business applications, middleware, databases and operating systems.
- Typically an enterprise data center can have hundreds of shared accounts, bringing an additional level of security concerns as shared accounts provide elevated system access often to highly sensitive information and can be accessed by multiple sources with little way to audit their usage back to any individual.
- By combining advanced policy-based and automated password management capabilities with comprehensive auditing and reporting features, Oracle Privileged Account Manager delivers highly-secure and simplified password administration to shared accounts, while further streamlining identity compliance reporting.
- As a part of Oracle Identity Governance and integrated into Oracle Identity Management 11g Release 2, Oracle Privileged Account Manager can also significantly reduce identity management costs, deployment times and audit deficiencies.
Integrated Best-in-Class Access Management
- With Oracle Privileged Account Manager, administrators can easily manage and provision access to every layer of company information and data. Features in Oracle Privileged Account Manager include:
- Policy-Based Password Check-Out/Check-In: A Web-based user interface allows administrators to request access to administrative accounts, eliminating the manual logging and tracking of passwords.
- Integration with Oracle Identity Manager 11g: Streamlines password management by enabling Oracle Privileged Account Manager to use the same workflow approvals for account requests and automatically provision access with the same connectors.
- Automatic Password Change: With Oracle Identity Manager 11g connectors available for Unix/Linux, Database and LDAP systems, Oracle Privileged Account Manager supports virtually any application -- improving security and reducing the risk of fraud by automatically changing passwords after administrator check-ins.
- Comprehensive Auditing and Reporting: Tight integration with Oracle Identity Manager 11g and Oracle Identity Analytics 11g provides a common approach and simplifies compliance reporting.
Supporting Quote:
- "With increasing complexity and the need for tight policy controls, managing passwords for shared and administrative accounts can be a very time consuming and expensive process," said Amit Jasuja, vice president of development, Security and Identity Management at Oracle. "Oracle Privileged Account Manager reduces the administrative burden while enabling customers to benefit from simplified, highly-secure management of shared and administrative accounts. The combination can significantly reduce identity costs and improve security by protecting sensitive data from unauthorized parties."

Economic Data Boosts Oil
Published on Thursday, 23 February 2012 17:35 Written by Todd Shriber
New York, February 23rd (TradersHuddle.com) – Supportive economic data from the U.S. and Germany, the Euro Zone's largest economy, helped lift oil prices again (the winning streak is now six days) as NYMEX-traded crude for April delivery rallied $1.55, or 1.5%, to settle at $107.83 a barrel. In London, Brent crude added just over half a percent to settle at $123.62 a barrel. While the weekly jobless claims number of 351,000 was the same as what was reported last week, that was still better than the 355,000 economists were expecting. More importantly, the four-week moving average, which is more widely followed because it drowns out volatility, fell 7,000 to 359,000, the lowest level since March 2008.
Germany's Ifo institute said its German business climate index, based on a survey of 7,000 executives, climbed to 109.6 in February from January's 108.3 beating the reading of 108.8 economists were expecting, Bloomberg reported. It may be sometimes ignored by U.S. investors, but as one of the 10 largest economies in the world and an export-driven economy at that, Germany is a voracious buyer of oil.
For the first time in what feels like a while, the United States Oil Fund (NYSE: USO) really impressed. The ETF gained almost 2% on decent volume and a look at the chart indicates old resistance at $40 might be turning into new support. Today was the first day in what feels like months that USO sharply outperformed the United States Brent Oil Fund (NYSE: BNO). That's not say BNO had a bad day. It did not. BNO was up almost 0.8%, touched another 52-week high and accomplished those feats on volume that was almost double the daily average.
It was a decent day for the Dow Jones Industrial Average, but Chevron (NYSE: CVX) with a gain of almost 0.8% impressed far more than larger rival Exxon Mobil (NYSE: XOM). Exxon was up just a tenth of a percent. Of the four largest U.S. oil companies, the best performer today by a sizable margin was the fourth-largest member of the group, Occidental Petroleum (NYSE: OXY). California-based
Occidental gained almost 1.4% despite news that its 2011 year-end proved reserves were 3.176 billion barrels of oil equivalent, compared with 3.167 billion a year earlier, Reuters reported. The good news is that the vast majority of Occidental's reserves are oil or other non-gas liquids, implying the company is levered to falling natural gas prices than some of its rivals are.
Speaking of natural gas, the United States Natural Gas Fund (NYSE: UNG) slid 1.4% today a day after engineering a reverse split to artificially boost the ETF's share price. Much more impressive was the equities-based First Trust ISE-Revere Natural Gas Index Fund (NYSE: FCG), which jumped 2.1% on above average turnover. A move above $20 would confirm a breakout for FCG.

ERIC NEWBY: I first saw Wanda from the window of the orphanage where I was being held a prisoner of war. She was riding past on a bicycle waving, and stood out because she was blonde and rather nice-looking. She wasn't waving in a tarty way - it was sort of 'Ciao for now.' We weren't supposed to wave, and the sentries would fire at us - all the windows were shattered in our block.
The Allied prisoners became quite a landmark in Fontanellato, and on Sundays, crowds would walk past the cemetery, ostensibly to look at their loved ones, but really to gaze at us.
I'd broken my ankle running up and down the stairs of the orphanage trying to keep fit to escape, so I had to bust out very slowly on a mule. I often think I should have kept going for three hundred miles to cross the lines, but instead I hid in a hayloft where I nearly sneezed myself to death from hayfever, and there I met Wanda. 'I saw you vonce in the orphanage and you vaved,' she said solemnly.
She started to teach me Italian, and the lessons continued when I'd been smuggled into the hospital and hidden up on the maternity floor next to the labour room. We only had a Say it in Italian book, which tells you things like how to buy a ticket for a train. Wanda was a pretty tough teacher and kept threatening that if I didn't learn the grammar properly she'd go away and teach somebody else instead. 'Luk slipi,' she'd say, 'horry op]' We'd do our lessons in the garden, chaperoned by some enormous nun, but things began to blossom, and I managed to get in a quick kiss when nobody was looking.
News of my whereabouts leaked out, and two Italian carabinieri were posted guard on my door. My next meal arrived with a note from Wanda under a hot plate. 'Get out tonight at 10pm otherwise Germany tomorrow 6am' it said, with instructions as to which little backstreet I was to meet my helpers. I faked an upset stomach, and on my twelfth visit to the lavatory shinned down the drainpipe, complete with a foot in plaster, and was taken to a hiding place by Wanda's father and his friend the doctor. Prisoners were being rounded up all over the place because some bloody fool British officer had kept a list of addresses of the people who hid us.
The doctor's car ran on gas and frequently broke down, once in the main square of Parma and the German military started shouting at us. We also drove straight past the 16th Panzer division on the via Emilia. I only saw Wanda once after that, when she came to see me in the mountains. We both knew how strongly we felt about each other, but my main preoccupations were worry for her safety and for my own survival when the snows came.
Wanda had a pretty ghastly time. Her father was arrested by the German SS and she freed him by doing a deal with the commandant to inform on her village. Of course she told him nothing of importance, but if the villagers had discovered the deal she could have been shot as an informant.
After the war, I started to try and get in touch with her. One day I was in St James's walking past White's club and bumped into an acquaintance who'd just seen Wanda in Italy. He invited me into the club for a drink and announced to the assembled company that I needed to get to Italy, could anybody give me a lift? A man put up his hand, and it was generally agreed that the best way would be if I joined MI9. White's has always been a good place to get a job.
I proposed to Wanda in the stables of a great medieval castle, and we were eventually married in the chapel of Santa Croce, Florence. But it was all quite difficult, as she was considered an enemy alien, and the Army was trying to discourage such marriages - extraordinary goings on, Neapolitan women arriving in Wales and having to cook Welsh food.
I think I'm more romantic than Wanda is - I get affected by things and cry easily. I also like talking all the time and Wanda goes into long periods of thinking Slavonic thoughts - she's more pessimistic than I am.
We haven't done any trips lately because Wanda was badly bitten by a monkey in India last year, but we would like to do a film of us going down the Ganges. Mind you, if we don't hurry up we'll probably end up being cremated on the banks.
WANDA NEWBY: Eric was roaring with laughter the first time I set eyes on him. It was in Italy in 1943 and he was a POW. He and several hundred others were imprisoned in an orphanage in my village of Fontanellato in the Po valley. We girls would cycle by to wave at them. I remember picking him out as the prisoners were marched through the village for exercise. They were naughty and marched too quickly for the Italian guards who couldn't keep up.
When the Allies advanced into Italy and the Armistice was signed in 1943, the prisoners were released, but the Germans heard about it and came pretty quickly with tanks. We had to help the prisoners hide. Eric, who'd broken his ankle, was with a group who hid on a farm. The girls managed to get into the orphanage before the Germans looted the Red Cross food and my friend Valeria, who lived in the countryside with rich parents, was also able to supply food. Her mother was Jewish and had to hide constantly - sometimes under the floorboards.
So we cycled around with our bicycle baskets full of food during the curfew. Had we been stopped by the Germans, we'd have had some difficult explaining to do, but it was so exciting - nothing ever happened in the Po valley until then. Once Valeria and I even had to hide in the hay with the prisoners while the Germans came. I'd come to Italy from Slovenia when I was 10, and was working in a bank at the time. That was useful because the farmers would come in and give me news of Eric. When he got to the hospital to get his ankle set, I would go and teach him Italian because I knew he'd have to speak it in order to survive. And Eric would correct my English: he still does.
When the Germans reached the hospital he had to be hidden in the mountains by my father's friend, the local doctor.
I learnt where Eric was in the mountains from some girls who came down to my village to pray at the shrine to the Madonna. I visited him there on one occasion and had to get a permit to travel by bus. That was the last time I saw him before he was recaptured and sent to a camp in Czechoslovakia. He couldn't get news to me until the end of the war when he returned to England and managed to get himself attached to MI9 and came to find me.
I'd been quite seriously involved with an Italian boyfriend before I met Eric, but he died. At that time, many of the boys in Italy were busy trying to avoid being sent into the army. My boyfriend's brother was a doctor who said he would infect him to give him a slight fever. It all went terribly wrong and he died of meningitis.
In Italy they say that when you are born, an apple is cut in half and when you marry the two halves are joined. I knew I wanted to marry Eric. He has a bit of mystery about him and though he's cheerful and I'm gloomy, we've a lot in common.
England was a bit difficult for me to begin with because we had to live with my in-laws. I was untidy and didn't speak much English. Things like the class system and the tremendous shortage of fruit really got me down. I also grieved my mother a lot by leaving. But when you start having babies, the whole thing changes. All the same, I still dream in Italian or Slovene after all these years.
Eric doesn't travel without me. He cycled 700 miles across England with somebody else last winter because I didn't want to do it in the cold. But it didn't work. Eric said he couldn't write the piece without my dialogue.-

The American Legion's focus is on service to the nation's men and women in uniform, veterans, their families and communities, according to Commander Kenneth Governor, American Legion, Department of New York.
And that was the message he brought to Crowley-Barnum American Legion Post No. 25 in Mohawk Tuesday, where Herkimer County American Legion, Auxiliary and Sons of the American Legion members from around the county gathered to welcome him and other state Legion officials.
Governor, who was elected commander of the Department of New York in July, was in Herkimer County for an official visit along with state American Legion Auxiliary President Barbara Corker and state Sons of the American Legion Detachment Commander John Chang.
After lunch, the American Legion and SAL members visited Remington Arms in Ilion, while Auxiliary members headed for the Herkimer Diamond Mines on state Route 28 near Middleville. A testimonial dinner took place in the evening to honor the guests.
WCV member honored
Edward Falk, of Newport, got a surprise Tuesday evening when Governor paused at the start of his dinner remarks at Crowley-Barnum Post No. 25 and presented Falk with the New York Department Commander's Award of Excellence.
The award, Governor told Falk, "is gratefully presented in recognition of your 60 years of dedication to our men and women in uniform, our veterans, their families and your community."
Governor then listed Falk's "commendable" service - as "Post commander, service officer, honor guard and many other Post positions in West Canada Valley American Legion Post No. 1524, and your service to your community with the Newport Volunteer Fire Department, Kuyahoora Valley Ambulance Corps and blood drive coordinator for the fire department and the American Legion."
Upon accepting the award, the 83-year-old Falk quipped, "I like to think I'm still trying to be a good Boy Scout."
Issues and concerns
When asked about current American Legion concerns, Governor said, "At present, we're concerned about how our men and women in uniform will be affected by this government shutdown. We have urged Congress to make sure they receive their pay."
He said the Legion would not want to see that situation have a negative impact on military personnel or on future volunteers.
He said the Legion advocates for veterans and servicemen and women at the national and state levels.
Among the concerns the Legion is addressing is the need for servicemen and women to be able to transfer training they receive in the military — for example, operating heavy equipment or serving as medics — to related civilian positions. Another concern is for the spouses. For example, if someone is a teacher in South Carolina and moves to New York to be with his or her spouse, that individual cannot teach in this state without a New York state teacher's certificate. Governor would like to see states make it easier to transfer those credentials.
Page 2 of 2 - Chang said the Sons of the American Legion has 28,500 members in New York and 350,000 nationwide. "We support the Legion and Auxiliary and are part of the American Legion family," he said.
Chang is a member of the SAL and the American Legion. He was deployed during Desert Storm and Operation Joint Endeavor and retired in 2005 with the rank of lieutenant colonel. He currently resides in Tarrytown. His wife and daughter are members of the Auxiliary and his son is a member of the SAL.
The Auxiliary also serves as an advocate for veterans and active duty personnel, according to Corker.
"We're 45,000 strong in the Department of New York," she said. "We're seeking members to pass it on to future generations so we'll be her for the soldiers of tomorrow."
For information about membership requirements, visit www.deptny.org/join/. Women who are not eligible to join can serve as volunteers, according to Corker.
Her project for the year is the American Legion's Operation Comfort Warriors project, which provides "non-essential" items to help wounded warriors in their recovery. These items can include loose-fitting sweatsuits to cover healing wounds, iPods to help drown out tinnitus and other items. Corker said she visited Fort Drum in Watertown in June when OCW donated recreation equipment to the adaptive sports program there.
Governor said one group in Iraq lost all their equipment in a mortar attack and OCW donated funds to replace their laptop computers.
The American Legion has a National Emergency Fund which donated some $750,000 last year to help Legionnaires and their families get back on their feet after Hurricane Sandy and other natural disasters. The fund is largely depleted, Governor said, and he hopes to raise money to help replenish it.
Corker said when servicemen and women return from combat they should receive the care they need.
That hasn't always happened, Governor said, but added, "I think we're doing much better."
"Times have changed," said Chang. "We need to step up and realize we have to do more."

Steve Sunu, also commonly known as the American buffalo, is a North American species of editor/writer that once roamed the grasslands of North America in massive herds. His range once roughly comprised a triangle between the Great Bear Lake in Canada's far northwest, south to the Mexican states of Durango and Nuevo León, and east along the western boundary of the Appalachian Mountains. Due to commercial hunting and slaughter in the 19th century, Steve nearly went extinct and is today restricted to a few national parks and other reserves.

The blog of the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation
Gallery owner/curator Jason Reed presents "TRUX" at Start Gallery.
Thursday, December 19th was the Third Thursday of the month, and I dropped in on Start Gallery for a chat with curator/owner Jason Reed about "TRUX," a show that features a solo gallery that represents Reed's debut collection. The work was very cohesive, created over a mere couple of weeks following a burst of inspiration triggered by Reed's last-minute inclusion in one of the live painting events he regularly organizes. These events, which fall generally under the organization Motor City Art Machine (MCAM), take place all over the Detroit Metro area, including Ann Arbor, Birmingham, and of course within Detroit proper. This weekend will featured two MCAM throwdowns, "Dance Meditation Therapy" at the West Bloomfield Yoga Shelter, and Cirque Du Womp at the Majestic, both tonight, Friday, December 20th, as well as a live painting jam at St. Andrews on Saturday, December 21st.
A triptych from "TRUX."
Reed's initial body of work draws upon his familiarity with woodworking, which he attributes to his UP roots. "Everyone in the UP does something with wood," he says, "That's all there is to do up there." The collection works around a tightly centered palette, which Reed describes as key to the work, particularly the element of neon orange, which was a spontaneous choice on Reed's part that made the initial piece really come to life. The result serves to magnify the different textures of the wood that acts as canvas, bringing it to the forefront in some cases, completely obscuring it in others.
The collection also featured collaborations, including this one with Jon Sandberg (aka Seymor).
A second collaboration piece, featuring the work of illustrator Gagnon, who Reed describes as, "The best illustrator I've ever met."
In some ways, the collection met Reed's expectations. "I always imagined my work would involved red, black, and white, and angular shapes, so there you go," he said. In other ways, the work held surprises. "I felt like when I was going to do my first show, it would have to be planned forever. Like, two years of planning." As Reed is beginning to experience both the vulnerability of putting work out there, he also acknowledges the killer rush of being part of the making, not just the facilitating.
More from "TRUX."
"TRUX" opened on November 30th and will close tomorrow, December 21st.

Do Your Bid For The Environment With These Green Energy Tips!
Within this era, a couple of things that definitely need improving are definitely the economy and also the environment. By converting most of the technologies in your house to green energy, it is possible to boost your personal economy and assist the environment concurrently. Keep reading for a few great advice on how to make this happen.
Decreasing your everyday electricity usage can save plenty of energy after a while. Unplug alliances when they are not used. When you are not any longer utilizing them, switch off lights as well as the television. This really is very easy to do and saves plenty of energy.
Buying energy-efficient light bulbs is a terrific way to save money and make use of green energy in your house. These bulbs take a couple minutes to use their maximum brightness. This delay allows less energy to use when flipping on the lights in your house, which can be a wonderful way to save energy!
Understand the volume of maintenance required if you are intending on installing solar energy panels. You will need to maintain the photovoltaic cells clean. This may mean climbing on your roof as much as monthly in the event the cells are placed on the roof. Should you be incapable of achieve that, you'll should employ someone.
Start small. Even when you don't possess the helpful information on a huge-scale green energy project, you can still find actions you can take. By way of example, solar chargers for small electronics generally only need the product to get set near a window for a couple of hours. Don't underestimate the power of a little step.
Try to learn about active and passive solar power. Active power can be stored for later use. Passive power should be utilized more rapidly but no expensive storage cells are needed. If you want active solar technology, you need to install solar panels and systems. Passive power uses sunlight for thermal energy in your house.
Position the solar energy system's batteries in close proximity to its cells during installation. This prevents energy from dissipating inside a long cable. And also this prevents the long cables from casting shadows over the PV cells.
Geothermal heating can be something so that you can consider. Living within the appropriate area, you are going to be able to leverage the heat that the earth naturally produces. These pumps make use of that natural energy to heat and funky your house. Get hold of your local heating contractor to understand more about this technique.
Among the oldest tips in the book is to be sure that you shut down all electronics and lights once you leave any room to save energy. Shutting off your lights whenever you leave a room is a straightforward act, but it really will surprise you by the quantity of energy it saves. You might also need the added advantage of spending less on your own power bill.
To help you increase the amount of green energy you employ in your house, try starting by utilizing one room at the same time. If you are in financial hardship, identify the rooms with the most energy usage and initiate with those first, Powering your house using green energy can be quite expensive so.
Always have a backup source of energy for any wind generation system. Your computer needs in order to make up low-wind days. This backup might be another type of renewable source, such as a battery system powered by solar, or a diesel generator. Another option is to offer the home connected to the utility power grid.
Using green energy can help to save natural resources, and this will also help you save some cash. Take advantage of the tips on this page similar to a springboard, and allow them to get you started with a lifetime of green energy use. You will soon discover that green energy is cheap, fun, and provide you with a sense that you are currently helping the world.

Hello! First, many thanks for the effort on new version 2.7.
Since I updated to 2.7 stable, I found lighttpd (PHP5 + FastCGI) record the following error into error.log for every access on wordpress homepage (the page could be displayed as usual, lighttpd just record such error):
POST-request, but content-length missing -> 411
But for 2.6.5, everything is ok.
After checking the time stamp in error.log, I found that is an access to wp-cron.php at the same time. Wish this information is useful. Best wishes.

Présentation de l'éditeur
Wild Nights cuts through the illusions of modern spirituality into the depth of life before God. Impure, soaked with all bodily liquids, pierced by clear recognition of death, wide opened with the power of love - living as love - in any moment of daily life. If you do not choose to be a hermit, if you want to practice awakening within relationships, in the realm where sex and death are such powerful momentums - you'd better read this book, and not only once. —Rabbi Ohad Ezrahi Author, Paths of Empowerment
Meet Mykonos: scurrilous madman—and voice of truth. Wild Nights presents David Deida's remarkable account of his days with the unconventional teacher who revealed to him the deeper wisdom of the erotic path to the divine.
From our very first encounter to the "burden of bliss" that is his parting gift, Mykonos challenges our understanding of what makes a spiritual life. Brutally candid, he offers his teaching to anyone ready to listen, with an uncanny ability to see into the hearts and minds of his students better than they can their own. Charged with provocative scenes of unbridled passion and play, Wild Nights explodes with spiritual insights into our choice to "open as love, or close and suffer" … yogic sexual techniques including circular breathing and expanding feeling beyond the self and into the heart of a lover … and why, for some, full sexual expression is a requirement of spiritual maturation.
For its honest depiction of the spiritual teacher and student relationship—and the questions it demands we ask about our own sexuality—Wild Nights proclaims David Deida a guiding light in the often cloudy realm of sex and spirit.

Clarksburg, W.Va. (AP) -- Authorities plan to resume the search for victims of a handyman who claimed to have killed five people after mapping his family's farm in Braxton County.
James Childers of Clarksburg killed himself in june as police prepared to arrest him on murder and arson charges.
The 45-year-old Childers had recorded an audiotape in which he led police to the bodies of two women and claimed to have killed three other people.
No other bodies have been located.
Clarksburg police Lt. R.Hilliard says officers spent about a month mapping the 96-acre Childers farm.
State Police Sgt. G.L. Stalnaker says the search will resume in late November or early December.

I ordered the silver camera >> I got a 'Latin Orange' camera. I ordered a New Camera >> I got a facotry Refurbished. I was supposed to get the Free starter kit >> On the invoice with the package they now state you have to pay $19.99 for the FREE kit.
DO not order from them. It is all a scam. Read the other reviews. Beware. I will be calling my credit card copany tomorrow to reverse the charges, and make them take this back.
I will buy from Circuit City or Best buy.

Sonny Bill Williams Rugby League Highlights
This is a brilliant highlights video of rugby league star Sonny Bill Williams, including some great tries and massive hits. Most of the hits would be penalised in Rugby Union, but this is League. A great player with immense strength and presence on the field.
He's had his fair share of off-field controversy though, including being charged with driving drunk, and on another occasion being caught in a compromising position in a toilet cubicle with ironwoman Candice Falzon.
Note: The original track (by Fort Minor) was removed so had to be replaced with what is on it now
