Massive hikes for boating registration, new bag limits
(Article for publication)
Massive hikes for boating registration, new bag limits
The Victorian state government has announced sweeping changes that will see boat registration fees aligned with vehicle registration fees. Registering the family tinny will now cost just under $700 a year.
The government says the money is needed to help fund new programs such as bringing the New York ballet to Melbourne, October's city wide whale-shaped balloon exhibition and a spa development in Brunswick.
A new state wide boat levy of $15 will apply each time a boat is launched and the government is reviewing bag limits which could see the possession limit reduced from 45 fish per day to just 11. Some species are set to become 'no take'.
These changes are due to be announced next week following a deal with the Greens, who promised preference deals to ensure the Napthine government survives November's state election.
The implications for us boaties and anglers are dire. If we don't fight, we'll lose the things we love to do.
Our kids will never experience the things we grew up with when we were kids.
Ok, you can stop panicking now. There is no change to the cost of registering a boat. The bag limit hasn't changed (at least not yet). There is no ramp levy.
Instead I wound the clock forward to get your attention on the way politics works. I hope it worked.
We're safe for now. However what you just read will be played out if we simply got back to voting for the Coalition or Labor without thinking about the deals they will cut with the Greens and other political extremists to win the next election.
Don't forget, it was the Labor and Coalition MPs who started the fights we've been having over the years. The Mako shark ban, life jacket rules, the introduction of marine parks and now the paralysis that is our boat ramps are a product of their "anything to hold onto power" morality.
Just look at their record – Labor exchanged preferences with the Greens at the last federal election. It was Liberal preferences that led to the Greens Adam Bandt winning the seat of Melbourne.
It doesn't matter which government we have, the future of boating and fishing is not safe.
In early 2013, the Republican Senators in North Carolina in the US proposed boat registration fee hikes of around 750%. This was eventually reduced to "just" 200% but was still a fight boat owners had no say in.
What do you want to do – be a lame duck and let it happen? Or fight?
We need to ensure the Greens don't get a stronger foothold in parliament. We need to ensure the ideologues running the state do not have a stronger influence than they have now.
We need to make sure the people we elect understand what our needs are.
They need to understand people like you have kids and that we want every kid to have the same opportunities we had when we were kids. The New York ballet can stay in New York. I like to go fishing. I love to have a beer afterwards and don't want some pathetic excuse for an MP trying to take that away from me.
We've got a state election coming up in November. If you vote for the coalition, you will vote against any more investment in boat ramps. If you vote for Labor, your vote will do the same thing – again.
Your kids will suffer. You will suffer.
To stop this, and ensure our kids can have a good outdoor future, you need to vote for Country Alliance.
CA was set up to protect the futures of angling, shooting, four wheel driving, the timber industry and so on. Our policy is to double the number of boat ramps in Victoria. We want to turn Victoria into a world leader in angling and boating opportunities for us and our kids – but can't do any of this without your vote.
It has started putting some candidates in place but we need more.
If the start of this article scared you, then don't just put it down. Do something today. Go to CA's website at www.countryalliance.org and join up before it's too late.

I began to step slowly down the stairs of the bleachers, fear rocking and shaking my knees. When I'd finally reached the gym floor, the coach put his arm on my shoulder. "Why don't you tell us all your power, nice an loud, kid." I gulped loudly, so loudly that I would've sworn it echoed throughout the gym. "I... Uhm... Telekinesis..." I clenched my eyes shut, waiting to be laughed at and harassed by my peers, but it never happened. I opened one eye and looked to my side to see that Coach wasn't standing next to me. He was far off to the side, examining closely.
"Ready, Kid?" I simply nodded and as if on queue, the robots sprung to life and began to charge towards me. "Oh fuck, Oh fuck!" was all I could think. I think I may have even said it once. I clenched my fists in concentration and began floating. Wait, what! I wasn't trying to do that! The robots beneath me sprung some sort of rockets from their feet and began flying towards me.
I don't know how I did it. It was almost like a reaction. A defense mechanism maybe? My hands shot forward and created a spherical field of energy around me, sending the bot hurtling to the gym floor. I looked down at my hands, wondering where all this power was suddenly coming from. I could hear the entire gym rumbling with applause.
"I mean that was absolutely incredible!" Jackson had repeated for maybe the HUNDREDTH time. We were over halfway through the names and Reggie had finally returned. I pushed Jackson away and turned to the other boy beside me. "What was with that kid?" I asked him. He shook his head in thought. "That was Chris... He's very... Emotional..." He answered. "NEXT UP! REGGIE VALENTINE!" The coach yelled. "That's my queue." He said as he rose from his seat and trotted down to the gym floor.
"Alright kid, what's your power?"
"Absorption." The coach got a confused look on his face. "Let me clarify, I absorb attacks from other enemies and shoot them back out, ten times stronger."
An ominous grin spread across the Coach's face. "I've been waiting to do this." He set his clipboard to the side. "You're gonna train with me." There was a loud "OOOH" from the crowd as they stood in front of each other. "Let's get this started." Reggie said, taking a few steps back.
Coach stepped back and pitched a fireball at Reggie. I was absolutely sure that I saw his entire body go up in flames, but it was almost like the fire sank into his skin. Coach tried again, and again, and again to land an attack on Reggie, but he was like a huge sponge, absorbing everything until he finally reached maximum capacity.
Reggie lifted his hand and conjured a ball of fire about twenty times the size of a basketball. On command, he released it, sending it flaring towards Coach. The fire seemed to get thinner and thinner as it got within a closer range it got to him, until eventually disappearing. I just about went def from the clapping and screaming of the people around me. "Nice." I thought. "Very nice."

We are running Exchange server 2003 here at my company. It's behind a firewall and NAT through to a external IP address.

How can I just type in https:/

Add an A record for 'mail' in your DNS that points to your internal mail server.
Apr 13, 2011 at 3:57 UTC
I'm assuming this is a DNS issue. You probably need to put in a CNAME record in your internal DNS with a value of mail.xxx.com and pointing to servername/exchange.
Apr 13, 2011 at 3:58 UTC
You will need to add a zone to your internal DNS server for your external domain. Then add the appropriate A records for anything that you need access to externally.
mail.xxx.com 192.168.1.X
http://www.xxx.xn--com-0daaaaaa; 188.8.131.52
Apr 13, 2011 at 3:59 UTC
Add a CNAME record 'mail' pointing to your internal server name 'servername'.
Apr 13, 2011 at 4:01 UTC
You will need to add a zone to your internal DNS server for your external domain. Then add the appropriate A records for anything that you need access to externally.
mail.xxx.com 192.168.1.X
http://www.xxx.xn--com-0daaaaaa; 188.8.131.52
You will only need to add another zone if your internal and external domain names are different. for example 'domain.local' and 'domain.com'
Apr 13, 2011 at 4:03 UTC
Here's mine: ( I had to create the lookup zones of my exteral domains since my internal is different)
Apr 13, 2011 at 4:08 UTC
Thanks everyone for the reply. I though I had to add a cname int he dns but wasn't 100% sure.
I will try it.
Apr 13, 2011 at 9:38 UTC
a cname might not work as I doubt your internal DNS is authoritative for your external domain. If I recall correctly you will need to set up a DNS zone specifically for that host name and then place the A record in there. This thread here should cover how to do what you want to do http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/123066-selective-dns-addressing
Apr 14, 2011 at 9:36 UTC
So basically I would need to create another primary zone in my internal dns server to point to the outside address of my webmail server?
Apr 14, 2011 at 10:06 UTC
Yes with only one root A record with the internal IP address of the mail server. If you maintained your own DNS on your servers for the public, or if your router supports hairpinning you could just use the public DNS record, but it would seem your router does not support hairpinning or it would work without having to do anything. This is not the most elegant solution but it will work.
Apr 14, 2011 at 10:24 UTC
Alex and everyone who replied, thank you for your help on this. It's working 100%.

In a tradition that goes back to the first Gulf War, staff at Plymouth State University have honored student soldiers called to active duty by posting their names in a public space in the University administration building.
Today, 36 plaques adorn two walls in the Bursar's Office, flanking a display case holding a flag and medallion presented to the staff and the University.
Additional recognition occurred Nov.16, when Brig. Gen. Stephen Burritt, commander of the New Hampshire Army National Guard, joined by guardsmen from several units, including Sgt. 1st Class Cheryl Nolan of Plymouth's own B Battery 2/197th FA., meet with Bursar's staff and PSU President Sara Jayne Steen, to present each a unit service challenge coin embossed with an emblem of the Old Man of the Mountains.
President Steen described the commemorative wall as " … a very personal reminder that this war is not an abstraction—it's very real."
Lt. Col. Ralph Huber commented, "You are supporting all of us, whether PSU students or not when you do this. It is great to actually see the plaques here. …These 18, 19, 20 year-old soldiers are making a difference. They are the diplomats out there, and it's an incredible responsibility. For these folks, it started here at PSU."
Huber also noted that PSU student soldiers and other N.H. guardsmen went to the Southern states after Hurricane Katrina and to southern New Hampshire during last year's floods.
Brig. Gen. Burritt thanked the staff for recognizing the student guardsmen, and spoke about their role in the southern states after Hurricane Katrina and in southern New Hampshire during last year's floods. He said, "The Guard is about helping our neighbors—we were one of the first units to arrive."
President Steen concluded, "That kind of service is what this recognition is intended for, and we're grateful. Our University motto is Ut Prosim, 'That I May Serve,' and it's especially fitting that at this time we are honoring those students who are serving."
The tradition was begun in 1990-1991 by former registrar Nick Mathis of Plymouth, who is now retired. Mathis created a banner on a dot matrix printer in support of students called to duty, and strung it across the Registrar's Office window. Other offices hung yellow ribbons.
In recent years the tradition was picked up by Associate Bursar Susan Landroche of Ashland and Bursar Laurie Wilcox of Rumney, who used technology to create an individual plaque in the name of each student as he or she is called up.
Referring to one of the students who has returned from service, Nolan said, "Shelly loves to visit your wall. He says, 'Hey, I'm on the wall. What do you think of that!'"

Increased-Liability Equity: A Proposal to Improve Capital Regulation of Large Financial Institutions
While it is recognized that the high degree of leverage used by financial institutions creates systemic risks and other negative externalities, many argue that financial institutions must rely on extensive debt financing since equity financing is "expensive." Some of the reasons debt is attractive to financial institutions, such as tax benefits and implicit guarantees, are due to subsidies that exacerbate the negative externalities associated with leverage, and are therefore not legitimate from a public policy perspective. Another argument given for high levels of debt financing is that debt serves as a disciplining device for managers who would otherwise make suboptimal or wasteful investment decisions. We propose a mechanism that allows financial institutions to maintain the contractual obligations of debt while avoiding or reducing many of the costs associated with it, including deadweight bankruptcy costs, agency costs due to risk shifting, and under-investment associated with debt overhang. Essentially, we propose a way to increase the liability of the equity issued by the financial institution without changing the limited-liability nature of publicly-held securities. The increased liability is backed by a proposed "Equity Liability Carrier," which holds the increased-liability equity of the financial institution as well as safe liquid assets. In addition to reducing or eliminating the agency problems associated with leverage, this structure concentrates the incentives to monitor and control managers within equity holders, and reduces the need for inefficient liquidation, implicit guarantees and bailouts. Our proposal can be viewed as a way for regulators to impose effectively higher capital requirements, while allowing financial institutions to undertake significant debt commitments.

Muffin was brought to the sanctuary with a litter of six kittens who were only 3 days old. They looked to be premature and were incredibly small. Only one kitten survived. Muffin gets along well with other cats and will sit beside you and purr, waiting to be petted. Playing with her toys and her kitten takes up much of her day.

About: Darent Valley Hospital Darent Valley Hospital Dartford DA2 8DA
Posted by Anonymous (as ),
What I liked
I received lovely care at the Early Pregnancy Unit. I was bleeding and phoned them at first and was told to come straight over. There was a queue but even though things the wait wasn't that long they still apologised fot the delay. The nurse (who wasn't the normal EPU nurse but covering for her that day) was absolutely lovely and really put me at ease, holding my hand and comforting. I want to thank her sincerely.
Anything else?
The doctor was very good and clear with the plan for next steps.

My StoryYou might say I was born to be heavy--the biggest baby out of three siblings. Early on, I was compulsive about food. If my mom baked a cake at night, I'd sneak downstairs in the morning to lick off the frosting. As an adult, my weight yo-yoed, until I became a mother and decided it was time to get healthy. I joined Weight Watchers and started swimming and measuring meals. By my 30th birthday, I weighed 145 pounds and felt ready to take on anything.
The Fall of SupermomWith all my new energy and dreams of being the mom who saved the world, I launched a recycling business. My family hauled 22 tons of recyclables out of our neighborhood--but then I herniated a disk. That was the end of my wonderful new beginning. I was in far too much pain to work out. The setback was disheartening, but instead of dealing with my sadness, I threw my energy into taking care of my kids. Between Girl Scouts and soccer, snacks were always around and my habit reared its ugly head again. I entered a 15-year cycle of eating, gaining weight, feeling depressed, and eating more. [pagebreak]
Child Support
By the time my daughter returned from her first year at college, I had reached 205, my heaviest weight yet. One day she leaned over and whispered, "Mom, I want you to take care of yourself." Before, when my husband suggested I join a gym, it felt hurtful, but it was different coming from my child. Soon after, I signed up.
Starting out was tough. When you're heavy, people act like you're invisible. There were days I wanted to quit--but I would think about my family and keep going. I slowly strengthened my back, and eventually, my three visits a week became six.
I began to change my diet, too. One year later, I had lost 70 pounds. Now I'm 50 years old and feel more confident than ever. And these days, as a certified fitness trainer, I'm the one providing encouragement. I prefer to work with very heavy clients in a studio or in their homes to make the process less scary. My flyer has pictures of me then and now, and I always tell clients, "If I could do it, so can you!"
My Top Tips
Don't eliminate favorites…just cut back on them. I'd enjoy bread and pasta in moderation--but to control my tendency to overeat, I wouldn't eat them past 3 pm.
Eat often…to help maintain your energy levels. Just keep portion sizes small.
Just exercise…even if you don't feel like it. You can't sit around and do nothing and expect the pounds to roll off!
Use a sound track…to pump up your workout. When I didn't want to be at the gym, hip-hop and old rock 'n' roll could get me in the mood.
Make some new friends...who support your active lifestyle. I've found a wonderful group of buddies at the gym who help keep me on track.
Remember…the benefits. I used to have heel spurs that were unbearable because of the extra weight I was carrying on my frame. Now I can walk anywhere I want without pain!

SANA'A - Last week, United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and Gulf Cooperation Council Secretary-General Abdullatif Bin Rashid Al Zayani visited Yemen to mark the first anniversary of the deal that saw former President Ali Abdullah Saleh relinquish power to his longtime deputy, Abdu Rabbu Mansour Hadi, in exchange for immunity from prosecution.On November 23 last year, after 10 months of deadly protests calling for his ouster, Saleh was forced to sign the agreement initiated by the Saudi-led Gulf monarchies and backed by the West.

At long last, the time has come for me to quit WoW—and with it, development on Rarity. I've kept this add-on going for nearly seven years, but I can't continue to do it without a WoW subscription.
If any experienced add-on developer is interested in continuing to maintain this add-on, send me a private message. Rarity is a very complex add-on, with its fingers in many to most of WoW's events and operating at very high speed in response to most in-game actions. As a result, only authors with fairly significant experience should respond.

I have a small team of 5 developers and we bought 5 individual licenses for Intel FORTRAN product. So there are exactly 5 developers and 5 single-user licenses.
But we want to be able to integrate our individual work onto a test machine. So can we install one of our single-user licenses on this test machine? I mean, any one of us might be using the product to build the integrated test application from cycle to cycle, but we all have individual licenses. We don't have to uninstall developer 'A's copy of the product this cycle because integration is being done by developer 'B' do we? And then uninstall/reinstall different single-user license because developer 'C' is doing the integration next month?
THanks for any advice/help

Results of an independent survey of Watertown Municipal Utilities natural gas customers shows a mixed bag when it comes to safety issues, but the city still ranks above the average.
Utilities General Manager Steve Lehner told members of the Utilities Board Monday the random survey of 300 natural gas customers was completed recently, and the results compared to those of a similar survey done in 2009. Utilities regularly sends out natural gas safety information in its monthly customer billings and the survey is designed to judge how effective those messages are.
"It's part of a public awareness program through the federal Office of Pipeline Safety," Lehner said following the meeting. "It (the survey) turned out about the same as the first time we did it."
The company that performed the survey — Central Surveys of Shenandoah, Iowa — is a consulting firm that does specialized survey work for utilities, Lehner said. Respondents were asked a series of questions regarding natural gas safety and the issues addressed in Utilities' flyers, he said.
"They looked at (the survey of) 2009 and 2013 and gauge the difference between then and now," Lehner said. "Some were a little better this year, some a little worse, but overall, we're still above average for all categories.
"They just try to gauge what our customers know about natural gas safety."
Lehner said the survey results are forwarded to federal inspectors for final approval and recommendations.
"The inspectors will look at the data and see what we do after that," he said. "They might say we have to do more customer safety flyers.
"Chances are we'll have to do another survey in the future."
In other business Monday, the board:
n Approved contracts for the yearly supply of water hydrants, PVC pipe, water main installation and gate valves for the Water Department.
n Gave Lehner a favorable annual performance review and laid out goals they would like to see achieved in 2013 and 2014.

Senex Energy Limited has commenced commercial production of gas, achieving its inaugural gas sales from the Hornet field in the Cooper Basin.
Senex Managing Director Ian Davies said this was an important milestone for the business and demonstrated real progress in developing the company's gas capabilities as part of its Growth Acceleration Strategy.
'Delivering gas production into a commercial contract brings us an important step closer to establishing a high value, sustainable gas business from our Cooper and Surat Basin assets', he said.
The Hornet-1 gas well within PRL 105 (Senex 100%) tested at a flow rate of more than two million standard cubic feet per day in pre-commissioning. The Kingston Rule-1 well is currently awaiting workover, with production from this well expected in early 2015.

Hello!! My name is Sterling. I'm 3-4 years old and weigh approximately 40 pounds. I enjoy having someone play with me and when playtime is over, I'll smother you with kisses and I absolutely LOVE to cuddle! I am a very good boy and love every human I meet. I'm a little selective about the canine company I keep, so perhaps a home where I am the only dog member would be best. I do tend to play a little rough so it's probably best if any children in the home are old enough to handle my rough play. I came to Satchel's with an old leg injury, but the lovely people at the vet fixed me up and gave me lots of love, and treats too! My injury has left me walking kind of funny on my left rear leg, but it doesn't get me down! I still love to run and play. I would love to meet you, maybe share a kiss or two! So what do you say?!
If you would like an appointment to meet Sterling, please email firstname.lastname@example.com or call 941-924-5070.
Each dog that comes to Satchel's has its own unique and personal history. We get to know each dog individually – his favorite toy, his favorite game, his favorite foods. The residents (dogs forever with Satchel's) and guests (adoptable dogs at Satchel's for a temporary stay) live in an airy shelter with spacious kennels, go for three romps or walks per day, and even take the occasional car ride to let their fur flap in the wind. Most important to us -- we keep our dogs safe from other residents and from humans who may want to harm them.
Trainers work with the dogs a few times a week to teach them that they can trust humans and other animals. We actively seek forever homes tailored to the needs of our adoptable dogs so that they can live the rest of their lives among a family of their own.
At Satchel's Last Resort, we believe that by harnessing the unconditional love that the dogs in our sanctuary put forth everyday, the world becomes a brighter place for animals and people. Each and everyday we try to give a little of their love back – back to the dogs and back to our community.
Thank You!

Is there anything different about swatching for socks? Since my first sock didn't work out I'm frogging and restarting from scratch, including making new gauge swatches just to make sure, I'm also starting a different pattern based on the links I was given in my other post w/ a different yarn so I'm swatching that too.
What is your preferred method of swatching?


text: Hello, I recently inherited an old PowerBook G3 (Oldworld, I believe. It wouldn't boot the CD, and BootX is working fine.) and have been installing Debian on it. It actually went quite well, with only a minor heart-attack when installing quick, which made the system no longer boot (and me not knowing the reset key-combination. :-) But I got it working again and am now trying to configure XFree, which is where I am stuck. I have tried using the fbdev, ati and atimisc drivers both from the stable (4.1.0) and testing (4.2.1) release. I've systematically tried different values for all options I imagined could have an impact, like using the kernel framebuffer interface, refresh rates for the screen and removing driver modules. The results are pretty much all similar. atimisc simply dies with a message of no screens found. I assume this is a wrong driver. ati and fbdev let the server start, but usually hang the whole machine with a black screen. fbdev sometimes lets me kill the server after a while (with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace), ati always hangs. fbdev also sometimes produces bands of garbled pixels, but then it always hangs the machine. The kernel framebuffer driver itself seems to be working fine. I've not had any screen problems working in text mode and 'fbi' (a framebuffer image viewer) also works without problems. I use the following kernel arguments with BootX: video=atyfb:vmode:14,cmode:32,mclk:65 I would appreciate any hints on which direction to go from here. Regards, Peter.

- Description
The MeCo 120 Long sleeve is a light weight, long sleeved base layer made from a blend of Merino wool and Polyester with Cocona technology. The fabric that we use in the new MeCo range of baselayers is an intimate blend of ethically sourced Australian Merino wool (65%) and recycled polyester with Cocona technology. Cocona technology uses activated carbon gained derived from discarded coconut shells and other natural porous particles. Cocona technology is contained inside the recycled fibre and will not wear out or wash off. In the 120 Long Sleeve we use a 120g/s/m MeCo fabric. The fabric is lightweight and makes the most of the comfortable and anti bacterial nature of Merino wool but is made faster drying due to the synthetic content of the fabric. The Cocona technology even adds to the antimicrobial qualities of the fabric. The MeCo 120 long sleeve has a close fit making it an ideal base later for all high activity uses.
- 120 g/m intimate blended Merino Cocona polyester yarns (65% Merino / 35% Cocona)
- Flatlock low bulk seams for next to skin comfort

Grail is a DC Comics villain who debuted in Justice League Vol.2 #40 (2015), making her one of the company's newest addition to its infinite gallery of rogues : despite her relative "youth" as a DC villain she is in-universe an extremely powerful and dreaded entity, being no less than the daughter of Darkseid himself.
Brief Info
Grail is the daughter of Darkseid, prophesied to cause great destruction at the behest of the Anti-God.
At the same time as the birth of Diana to Hippolyta, the Amazonian assassin Myrina gave birth to the daughter of Darkseid in secret, aided by Penelope and watched by the oracle Menalippe. Upon the birth of the young girl, Grail was defended by her mother from Penelope, who heard of the prophecy from Menalippe of the destruction that would be caused by the girl when she grew. After murdering Menalippe, Myrina fled Themyscira, bringing her daughter with her as the first Amazons to leave the island.
Decades later, Grail allied with the Anti-Monitor and aided him in declaring war on her father.
Grail is an expert hand-to-hand combatant. She was capable of besting the likes of Batman and Wonder Woman in battle.
- Enhanced Abilities: Grail has super human strength, agility, speed, endurance and durability.
- Immortality: Grail is immortal, she does not age and cannot be killed by any conventional means.
- Omega Beams: Grail inherited, or has a power similar to, the Omega Effect of her father. Capable of injuring the likes of the New Gods, and destroying the unbreakable bracelets of Wonder Woman.
- Dimensional Travel: Grail has the ability to lock on the frequency of those connected to the Speed Force and use them as bridges to cross universes.
- Will Corruption: Grail can infect and corrode the emerald energy of willpower emanated from the Green Lantern Rings, causing great harm and pain to the ring wielder.
- Summoning: Grail can use a twisted Amazon ritual that imprisons the darkness in one's heart to summon her father Darkseid to wherever she is.
- Scythe: Through unknown means grail has acquired a weapon shaped new god computer similar to Kanto's.

What's included?
If you have tried to use a grammar text lately, you know it can be overwhelming. Even if you do figure out where to begin, the practice exercises often contain sentences that are difficult and confusing to students.
This book is different.
It contains carefully constructed sentences that incorporate only the elements that have been introduced to that point in the program. This eliminates the frustration students and teachers often feel while using a standard textbook.
This book is written expressly for younger students and for students who are learning English as a second language. The lessons you will present are succinct. It is important that you follow the five steps in this book in sequence. Do not go on to the next lesson until you are sure your students have mastered each concept.
This eBook contains:
- SAM Jr. (Sentence Analysis Map)
- lesson notes
- exercises
- quizzes
- writing connection pages
Remember to print the SAM Jr. sheets on the front and back of a single sheet of paper. SAM Jr. is a double-sided sheet of notes and word lists. Give each student a SAM Jr. sheet and allow him/her to use it on all exercises and tests.
The Writing Connection pages in each step provide practice in usage skills and writing original sentences. And, of course, the answers are at the back of the book.

What are the rules behind FTF sales/trades?
I was wondering what the laws behind FTF entail? I was selling an item and I was emailed and made a reasonable offer with a FTF sale instead of shipping to an FTF. I turned it down because I am not familiar with the FTF laws and I don't want to be held responsible for someone getting ahold of a weapon with my name behind the serial #. If anyone has any legitimate information or information source it would be appreciated.
State laws vary. I'd contact your local Sheriff's dept.
You need to check your local laws. In Ohio nothing is required for Two people to make a FTF transaction.
Ahhhh- what do they call those adult diapers???? Oh yeah- DEPENDS. :p
Depends on your STATE laws- and I don't know what state you are in.
FEDERAL law permits a face to face sale between 2 unlicensed residents of the same state ONLY. Unlicensed means does not hold a FFL. So if you lived in, say, Virginia, you could sell a rifle, shotgun, or pistol to another resident of VA- so long as you did not have cause to believe they were prohibited from owning a gun. But the guy that wants to drive down from Maryland? Nope. You CAN transfer it to a dealer, who could then transfer it to him, or to a FFL in his home state.

World Heritage Status is being welcomed by the Lake District National Park Authority (a non-elected quango) and the Friends of the Lake District (an environ-mental pressure group).
The NPA will now have UNESCO in Paris to help them preserve funding and the Friends will adore the cryogenic freezing of the Lake District so that anybody who disagrees with their landscape mantra will be painted as a World Heritage status heretic.
If you're a young resident of the national park, what can you look forward to?
Some affordable housing or even less? A more vibrant village welcoming fun action events or less? Less people wanting to retire here or more?
World Heritage Status may pickle the environment but for our young people it may just mean it's a little more unaffordable, even more quiet and peaceful and a lot more dull.

In the November 7 "Washington Post," in an article reporting on the Virginia General Assembly elections, staff writer Tim Craig adopted the liberal terminology of referring to government spending as "investing" as he relayed that Democratic Governor Tim Kaine hopes to get more support for his "agenda to invest more in education, health care, and the environment." The complete text of a similar article using the same line can be found on the Washington Post's Web site here. In the front-page article "Delays in Counting Slow Results in State, Local Races," after summarizing some of the early election results, including the plight of some Republican state senators running for re-election in Democratic-trending districts, the following one-sentence paragraph ran on page A12:
Kaine staked his political reputation on Democratic gains in the 140-member legislature as he sought to build on the party's recent advances in the state and bolster the chances he can win approval of his agenda to invest more in education, health care and the environment.

Top 10 Things You Can Do to Insure Your Prosperity
1. Be Positive. It's a known fact that optimists live longer and do better than pessimists. Practice seeing the positive side of everything. Become aware of any fears you may have about trusting in a positive outcome.
2. Examine Your Values. Find out what really matters to you so you can use your personal values as a guide for planning your life. Support yourself by honoring your values.
3. Use Your Values As a Guide for Your Actions. There's a saying that I like — If one of us has to be uncomfortable, it doesn't have to be me. If you are ever asked to act against your own values, don't do it. This takes courage, and you will probably have to work through some fears, but do it!
4. Strive to Increase Your Levels of Awareness. Awareness is the first step in the process of change. If you are going to change your life position, then it is important to take an inventory of where you are now. This means looking at the condition of your home, possessions and relationships as well as being very conscious of where you are now financially. Vagueness is a serious impediment to prosperity.
5. Be Willing to Step Outside of YOUR Box. If you keep on doing what you've been doing, you will keep on getting what you've been getting. If you are uncomfortable in any area of your life, then you will need to do something different in order to change.
6. Take Care of Yourself. If you don't support and take care of yourself, others will not do it for you. The more you nourish yourself with what you actually need, the easier it will be to create a comfortable lifestyle. A comfortable body/mind/spirit reflects itself in prosperity.
7. Take Care of Your Money. Balance your checkbook, post your sales, keep track of what you spend and earn. Money, like people, goes to those who nourish and care for it. If you don't learn to take care of your money, when you start earning more, it will overwhelm you. Every dollar is a decision and it is easier to learn to make financial decisions when there is less to deal with.
8. Keep Learning about Money Management. Money is a powerful force that requires skill to handle it. A lot of people are intimidated by the whole money arena because they've never learned about it before. It is never too late to start and there are many good resources and books for beginners that will introduce you to the principles of investing and money management.
9. Take Responsibility for Your Personal Power. It really bugs me when I hear people say things like, "I guess God (or any variation thereof) doesn't want me to have money now." I firmly believe that we create our own reality with our thoughts, beliefs and emotions. Prosperity requires a willingness to no longer be dependent on others or to be a victim of circumstances. The principles we teach require a willingness to take responsibility for creating your own life — and your prosperity.
10. Take Action. Sitting still won't get you anywhere but where you are already. Small actions that move you closer to your goal of increased prosperity will move you along the path. Take small steps, but take them. For example, save a few dollars, read a book about money management, balance your checkbook (if you don't normally do that), set realistic short-term financial goals, evaluate your life, add healthier foods to your diet. It's a good idea to get a buddy and make changes together. Talking about what you plan and the actions you are taking reinforces your resolve.

Flight to Napa
So there I was, cavorting around Napa with people so versed in vino they were correcting the tour guide's French. I was way out of my league. These weren't just wine enthusiasts , these were wine fetishists, the kind of people who would send a bottle back, and not just because it's empty. My confusion in their presence was topped only by the beauty of Napa, which took me completely by surprise – I felt like a caveman staring at an iPhone. The landscaping is like Zeus's summer-home and the people are rad cause you know off the bat they like great food and wine. Napa felt like a distinctly Californian version of Europe without those fucking Europeans and I think I kind of want to die there.
The trip was as much about food as it was about wine, which was good because people aren't going to waste a ten-year-old bottle of vino with Lunchables and Pepsi (I learned as I was breaking out Lunchables and Pepsi). Our first stop on the trip was the Woodhouse Chocolatiers where the rosy-cheeked owner walked us through the creation of our own chocolate bars, and my own hazelnut, sea-salt and milk-chocolate blend was unarguably the best. Only a day ago I was deconstructing my ex's Facebook and now I was making chocolate bars with Willy Wonka. What a difference an all-expense-paid day makes.
Chocolate for breakfast. What a wonderful way to start the day. Needing some actual sustenance they whisked us off to the Farmstead restaurant where the food was so fresh you could hear it screaming as it entered your mouth. This was farm-to-table dining, which is an easier way of saying "come eat on our farm", and the portions were so big they served them in these huge Beowulfian bowls. I helped myself to seconds and thirds of the Pino they also make and figured if there ever was a time to get wasted at lunch, now was it. As if to lubricate the finery in our bellies they then took us to the Round Pond olive farm where I learned that Olive trees are harder to kill than the Ents in middle earth and high-end olive oil is spicy enough that I would be a horrible Mexican. All in all I was extremely blown away.
It quickly became clear that I was the comedian. Guffawing and knee-slapping I felt like Will Smith in the first episode of The Fresh Prince of Bel Air. Apparently wine-culture isn't very big on being loud and apparently I am. While my companions lowered their glasses with nods of culinary approval I lowered mine with nods of four-letter-words. This experience was special, and when I'm happy I get loud. You should too.
But Newton shut me up.
Newton Vineyards is one of the coolest places I've ever been. Built on a hilly part of Napa's valley walls the vineyards crest and fall like a roller-coaster made of grapes. The corkscrew-trimmed-hedges and Japanese air give it a distinctly Tim-Burton's-Alice-In-Wonderland-feel, only with genuine substance. In the distance their signature ominous-tree sits alone on a hill, one incongruent branch challenging you to an arm-wrestling match. It's a real cool place.
We began by picking Merlot grapes and I'd be lying if I didn't say my first thought when looking at grapes on a vine was that they look like dangling balls. This revelation made it even more surreal when I learned I was actually quite good at shucking said balls and after a couple of whacks wondered if there wasn't a future in this for me. Maybe if comedy doesn't work out I could become a migrant field-worker I thought, trucking round town hoping to escape my demons with each harvest. And it was at this moment I had my grand realization about the culture of wine. The shit takes time. The grapes I was picking wouldn't actually be giving someone red teeth for another 4-years and by then we'll all be in space-ships. Once we finished our harvest we toured the fermenting room and I couldn't stop staring at the CO2 as it gurgled out of the casks. The sugars and the yeasts were doing battle and in many years this wine would come out of it's cocoon a butterfly. The longer it stayed in the cocoon, the more beautiful the butterfly. Talk about patience.
Later we all sat down for an elaborate tasting and mixing session and for the first time on the trip I felt myself changing, just like the grapes. As an elaborate array of glasses sat before me I didn't want to just chug them and start talking, I felt the wine deserved some introspection. Placing the liquidto my lips I described my glass as a "beautiful Parisian woman with a gun", an image that my companions agreed was dead-on. After a perfect meal overlooking Napa I replayed the last two days in my head still unsure of what I ever did to deserve all of this. Drinking and talking are two things I've done a lot of in the past 11 years and this seemed to be the most desirable combination of both.
And it wasn't until I was boarding the plane back to Los Angeles that all of this really began tosink in, the colors, the tastes. The swirling congregation of hues and smells meld into a playground for your senses and like a lover I was leaving would cherish the experience and run back as soon as I could. Napa is a place for the slow appreciation of man's ecological potential, a place where easy-does-it does it easily. And while I'm sure my levity was nice in the beginning I was wise enough to let the land, and the wine, speak for itself. First time for everything I suppose.

Kara-mail (空メール) is a user interface design pattern commonly seen in Japanese mobile web sites. As all Japanese mobile phones have an email address, registration for mobile sites usually requires an email address. However, entering an email address is relatively time consuming for a user to do. So instead of asking the user to input the email address, sites have a user send them an empty email, hence the name kara-mail (kara is Japanese for empty). After the site receives the email, the site will reply with an email containing a sign up link. Upon clicking the sign up link, the user can then complete the sign up process.
On Doorkeeper, we use kara-mail to allow users to easily sign up to attend an event via their mobile.
Kara-mail Registration with Doorkeeper
Because mobile spam is particularly annoying, mobile carriers have a setting that will allow users to block all email that do not come from other mobile devices or a specifically whitelisted domain. To help users whitelist our domain, we link directly to the carrier settings page. Additionally, as most Japanese mobiles do not support copying of web page text, but do allow copying of form input text, we put our domain in a form input so a user can easily copy it.
Depending on the mobile carrier, we show an appropriate link to the settings. The links are

The bottom line is that I love to learn! I grew up in a free thinking family where knowledge was valued and inquiry praised. I experienced the joys of homeschooling and went on to become an elementary classroom teacher and an ESL coach. While getting my Master's Degree in Curriculum and Instruction with an emphasis on Language Acquisition, I wrote many many papers and even though it was a challenging process, it helped me to really synthesize what I was learning.
That is what I want to do with this blog. I want it to be a place where I can lay out all of my thoughts as I embark on this wonderful new journey of being a stay at home mom. What I have learned in this portion of my life is mind blowing and life altering, and I don't want to forget a thing! So many times I'll become curious about one topic or another, get REALLY into it, and then six months later, the details are but a vague fog in the recesses of my memory. What resources did I like? What facts did I find most useful? How did I come to apply this new idea to my life? These are all things that I hope to save here in this blog.
If anyone else besides me finds this blog to be useful, then that would be amazing! Maybe there are some other moms out there who are just like me, combing the Internet that is full of too many resources, and trying to latch on to the right ones that make sense for her family. If so, I want those moms (or dads, grandmas, grandpas, sisters, brothers, etc.) to know that I do not feel like MY way is the best way. This is my journey, this is what works for my family, and this is what works for me. We are all on our own journeys and there isn't any universal "right way" of doing things. If I come across as being passionate in my views, it is not to imply that they are better than yours or even the best for me forever, they are just the best for me now and what makes the most sense for me today.
When you read this blog, you will get to see a glimpse into the cacophonies of my mind. You will get to see what I'm passionate about, what I'm learning about, what I'm wondering, and you will see me try to make sense of it all in one organized paragraph after another. You will see blogs published before they are ready, pictures that are not perfectly staged, ideas that are still forming…you will see it all. I like to base whatever I am learning on a resource or resources that I strongly believe in. I will always cite the sources that I use in one way or another and provide links to the resources that I used to format my ideas. I'm not promising MLA or APA formatting, but you will be able to find the links somewhere.
So if you are here, if you are reading, thank you for taking the time to learn with me. I welcome your ideas, your feedback, and your wonderings along the way.
